Starting with A Divorce by Gloria Warren

Chapter 340 Put Me Down

The next morning, Chad handed over the last 350 dollars he found from home to Robert. He cried

and begged for a long time before Robert finally decided to let him go.

Ainsley sat in the office, and the computer screen just happened to show a reply from

headquarters.

The report of the equipment malfunctioning had been approved, and the new equipment that had

been applied had been approved.

Those directors did not stop Ainsley. It was very unexpected.

Outside the office, Chad passed by the door and recalled what Robert had just said.

“I’ll give you another chance. Ainsley is very smart. If you fail again this time, you can scram!”

Chad clenched his fists. Chad thought, I absolutely could not fail this time.

It was six in the evening.

Ainsley got off work. Unexpectedly, Chad asked Ainsley to have dinner. “Today, my mother made a

lot of delicious food. What happened before was my fault. You are so inclusive. Please forgive

me.” Ainsley had doubts as she sat down with Chad at the table. She saw that the table was full of

food. Before she even touched the fork, Chad came over with a bottle of wine. He said, “You are

from Seattle, and you are a member of the Easton Group. You must have a lot of social activities.

You are not someone who doesn’t know how to drink. Today, let’s drink.”

Chad didn’t wait for Ainsley to say whether she agreed or not. He directly placed a wine glass in

front of Ainsley and filled it up for her.

“What exactly is the matter?” Ainsley frowned.

Ainsley thought, for no reason, how could Chad prepare so much for me, and even specially

prepared a bottle of wine?

Chad said earnestly, “Actually, it’s not a big deal. The house you lived in last time collapsed. I can’t say

that I have no responsibility at all. It’s all my fault. The village chief said that we could

reimburse the cost of repairing the house, but the premise is that it was indeed caused by natural

disasters. But, my house was repaired for me the day before it collapsed. You know that I was very

angry with you. So, I didn’t repair it. Instead, I broke a few tiles. If the village chief asks you about it,

can you not tell him?”

Ainsley glanced at Chad. She thought, was it really that simple?

Hamlin and Gwyneth didn’t even sit beside the table, as if today’s dinner was specially made for

www

Ainsley alone.

Chad raised the glass in his hand and said, “Ms. Easton, I will drink it first.”

Before Chad could drink, Ainsley suddenly said, “Chad, this is the food that Hamlin and Gwyneth

prepared. Ask them out to eat together. Hurry up and call both of them in. Otherwise, I won’t drink

this wine.”

Chad saw that Ainsley’s eyes had softened a lot, and he thought that Ainsley was easy to deceive. Chad

agreed and said, “Alright, just wait, I’ll call them over.”

In less than two minutes, Chad brought Hamlin and Gwyneth back to sit.

This time, Ainsley took the initiative to pick up the wine glass in front of her. “I have been living in your

house all this time. We have no enmity or hatred before. If the village director asks me

anything, I won’t say anything wrong about you. Don’t worry.”

Ainsley drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, and Chad also drank the wine in the glass in

satisfaction. Soon, Ainsley was lying on the table, unconscious.

Chad directly took the wine glass in front of him and threw it out. Then he helped Ainsley into his

room and laughed.

In a few minutes, Chad heard the sound of knocking on the door. He originally wanted to take advantage

of Ainsley, but his hand stopped on Ainsley’s cheek. Before Chad could touch Ainsley, he quickly went to

open the door.

“Manuel, you’re here?” Chad greeted him in a flattering manner. The person who had come was indeed

Manuel. Manuel frowned. Twenty minutes ago, Chad had called Manuel and said that Ainsley was in

danger and asked him to hurry over. Manuel had rushed over in a hurry, but he found that the smile on

Chad’s face was a little ***and evil.

“What’s wrong with Ms. Easton?” Manuel asked with a serious expression.

Chad knew that he had made the right bet when he heard this. Chad pointed to the room where Ainsley

was and said meaningfully, “Ms. Easton is in that room. She is in a critical situation now.

Manuel, hurry up and save her.”

After saying that, Chad showed an expression that all men understood.

Manuel felt a little scared. Manuel entered Ainsley’s room and saw her lying on the bed,

unconscious.

“Aisy?” Manuel hurriedly walked over.

Chad shouted outside the door, “Manuel, every minute of the night is precious. Do you know what I

mean? I have already given you what you want.”

Only then did Manuel understand what Chad meant. He looked at Ainsley with a cold face. There

was only worry in his eyes and nothing else.

Manuel put his hand on Ainsley’s forehead to check her temperature, but unexpectedly, Manuel’s

hand was pressed down by a warm and soft palm. Then Manuel saw that Ainsley, who was

supposed to be asleep, opened her eyes. Her other hand directly covered Manuel’s mouth, and

then she shushed Manuel.

“Take me out of the Morton’s house first. If you have any questions, go out and ask.” After Ainsley

said this, she immediately closed her eyes again.

Manuel simply picked Ainsley up and walked out of the door. Chad was confused. He looked at

them and asked, “What’s wrong?”

“I want to bring her back to where I live,” said Manuel as he walked quickly with Ainsley in his arms.

Chad smirked behind Manuel and said, “Then you have to hurry up. I estimate that the medicine is

going to take effect.”

Manuel was stunned. He was about to turn back to ask when Ainsley grabbed his arm. Manuel did

not dare to stop and hurriedly walked out.

“Put me down.” Ainsley only opened her eyes when she was far away from the Morton’s house.

“Chad, he…” Manuel carefully put Ainsley down.

“That’s right! He thought you liked me and wanted to curry favor with you. So, he drugged me and prepared to let you sleep with me,” Ainsley said expressionlessly.

Manuel hurriedly explained, “I don’t know about this.”

Ainsley sneered and said, “Of course, I know you don’t know about this. Today’s matter is not all

because of you. Robert, the factory director of the Easton Group factory, has long since disliked

me and wants to deal with me. Chad is his lackey, and you are here. Robert wants to ***two birds.

with one stone.”

Manuel thought of what Chad had said before he left. Manuel said worriedly, “What is the medicine Chad mentioned? Did he drug you?”

Ainsley nodded and said, “But I changed the medicine. He is the one who drank the medicine now.”

However, Ainsley would not return to the Morton’s house tonight.

“Mr. Gage, thank you for helping me. Please go back.”

“Where are you going?” Manuel shook his head.

Ainsley pondered for a moment before saying, “I’ll go to the factory to take a look. I can sleep in

the office.”

After Ainsley finished speaking, she coughed a few times. After the heavy rain and cold, Ainsley

had not recovered completely, as if there would be residual effects.

“Go to my place. You sleep on the bed, I sleep on the ground.” Manuel stubbornly looked at Ainsley

and tugged at her arm.
