Starting with A Divorce by Gloria Warren

Chapter 355 Stay at My Place

When she saw Manuel slowly approaching, she wanted to escape. But unfortunately, she did not

have the ability to do so.

It was damp on the mountain, and she would inevitably slip while walking on the dirt road.

She did not have the strength to refuse, and she was held up by him. “Put me down, Manuel! Let

me go!”

“You can’t walk.” Manuel who held Ainsley walked steadily step by step.

“Even if I can’t walk, I don’t need your help! Don’t forget that you have a fiancée now!”

Manuel’s eyes got dim. He didn’t want her to bring it up.

After the fight, his clothes got a little messy, but it made him look wild and attractive, though, in a

dangerous way.

Ainsley shot a few glances at him. Although she tried to warn herself not to fall in love with him,

her heart still beat quickly.

When they returned to the residence in the factory, Manuel carefully placed her on the bed and

covered her with a blanket.

“I didn’t tell you this address. How did you know?” Ainsley frowned as she stared at him and asked.

Manuel froze, and there was a bit of panic in his eyes.

Before he could think of an answer, Ainsley made a judgment. “You stalked me.”

“No.” Manuel denied it instantly.

Ainsley stared at him without blinking, trying to find a flaw in his expression.

Manuel who couldn’t dodge her gaze looked up at her. “Your foot doesn’t hurt anymore?”

As soon as he mentioned it, Ainsley’s face changed.

She felt her swollen foot being pressed by a big rock. It didn’t hurt very much, perhaps because it had become numb after a long time. When looking at the *******injury, she felt very agitated.

After Manuel found that her attention had been successfully diverted, he took a breath of relief silently.

He turned around and continued to search.

TH

Úsually, there would be a first-aid kit in this kind of factory. It didn’t take him long to find it.

Manuel took out ointment, poured some out, and rubbed it back and forth in his hand.

When Ainsley saw what he was doing, she asked with a bad premonition, “What are you doing?”

Manuel raised his eyelids. “Your foot is swollen. It gets congestion. I’m going to rub it to get you

relieved. I’ll take you to the town hospital tomorrow.”

“No… no!” Ainsley was so flustered that she stammered. “I don’t feel much pain. It’s okay. I don’t

want to bother you.”

Manuel knew what she was thinking, and he didn’t stop. He said firmly, “No. You may not feel pain

now. But If I didn’t deal with the congestion, you would be in extreme pain tomorrow.”

Ainsley was still scared. Although she didn’t think she was delicate, she thought of the related

videos she had watched on the Internet, in which the injured all cried out in pain.

While Manuel was focused on getting the ointment warm, Ainsley held her breath and carefully

moved to the foot of the bed.

Unfortunately, before she could move her feet, Manuel grabbed the ankle of her injured foot.

Ainsley subconsciously struggled, and then she became miserable, tears coming out of her eyes.

“Don’t move.” Manuel looked at her, feeling amused and a little angry.

Ainsley gritted her teeth in anger and silently blamed him.

“You know my relationship with Chad, right?” Just as Ainsley was worried, Manuel suddenly said

that.

Ainsley was stunned and frowned in confusion. “Chad, that jerk? Why do you have anything to do

with him?”

Manuel knew that she was playing dump. He smiled and did not expose it. He continued, “The

reason why you have been enduring Chad until now and did not choose to call the police

immediately after being bullied is because of me, right?”

Ainsley was so shocked by his certainty that she went speechless by his certainty.

When she finally came back to her senses, she said with some embarrassment, “Don’t think too

highly of yourself. I, ah…”

Her words turned into a long scream.

Manuel held her ankle with one hand and quickly and efficiently applied ointment to her foot with

the other hand.

He must exert strength to deal with the congestion. Pain for one moment was always better than

pain for a month.

Ainsley was so stimulated by the pain that tears flowed out. She hatefully grabbed Manuel’s arm

and put it in her mouth to bite.

The veins on Manuel’s forehead fiercely popped.

She bit him relentlessly.

Manuel thought that his hand must have been bleeding.

After this time-consuming and blood-consuming activity went to an end, beads of sweat appeared

on Ainsley’s and Manuel’s foreheads.

After applying the ointment, Manuel stood up and staggered.

He had maintained a gesture for too long, and his legs were a little numb.

Ainsley opened her mouth but didn’t say anything. She held her words of concern back.

“Here is shady with stagnant air. It is not good for your injury.” Manuel walked around the room,

turned around, and made a serious conclusion.

Ainsley didn’t care about it. “Do you think we are in the city? This place is already very good in the countryside, and I am not so delicate.”

“It’s better to stay at my place for a while.” Manuel made up his mind.

Ainsley got surprised.

She didn’t understand what he was saying.

Manuel did not seem to have any intention of asking for her consent. He just said, “Do you have.

anything you want to take with you?”

Ainsley was very angry, though she didn’t know why. “Are you crazy? I have nothing to do with you, and I won’t live with you. I’ll stay here. I won’t go anywhere.”

Manuel stared at her. “You are in a special situation now. Be sensible.”

Ainsley took a deep breath, trying hard to calm herself down. “Manuel, don’t forget that you have a fiancée. We can’t stay together. You happened to save me today, and I’m very grateful. That’s it.”

As he heard that she wanted to cut off the relationship, Manuel’s face instantly darkened.

He decided not to talk to Ainsley anymore. He took a few steps forward and picked her up.

Before Ainsley could react, he pressed her with great force, making her unable to get rid of him.

In this way, Manuel forced Ainsley to temporarily move to his residence.

Although she had been here once, the furniture in the room had been replaced now. Almost all

were new.

“Where did you get the furniture and covers?” Ainsley did not believe that the villagers would be kind enough to support them. Even if there were warm-hearted villagers, they might not have such

good things.

Manuel poured a cup of hot tea for her and said calmly, “After you stayed for a night, I asked people to deliver it the next day.”

Ainsley’s mouth twitched. She didn’t know what to say.

“Are you hungry?” The situation got a little embarrassing, so Manuel casually found something to

talk about.

“No,” Ainsley replied stiffly.

As soon as she finished speaking, her stomach began to rumble.

The atmosphere got weird.

Ainsley was so embarrassed that her ears turned red. When Ainsley heard Manuel’s uncontrollable low laughter, her neck became red as well.

She just wanted to dig a hole and get in.
