Starting with A Divorce by Gloria Warren

Chapter 413 I Trust You, Ainsley

Serina hugged Ainsley's arm with both hands and blinked as she looked at the road ahead.

It was such a good opportunity. It would be a pity to send Ainsley home directly.

It was better to take advantage of the day to find a way to fix Ainsley up with Manuel.

Thinking of this, Serina pretended to see something intriguing and shouted in surprise, "Manuel, stop

the car. I want to go to Wolf Market."

Manuel glanced at her from the rearview mirror. They had a tacit understanding, but he didn't reveal

any emotions on his face. He even put on a solemn face. "Don't make a fuss. If you really want to go

there, let Susan come here with you later."

Serina's tone suddenly fell. "The market may be closed at that time. Manuel, you are a bad brother!"

Ainsley could not bear to see her pitiful expression and hesitated to persuade, "I suggest you find a

place to park the car."

Hearing this, Manuel chuckled to himself. Serina also excitedly gestured a victory gesture secretly.

Thus, the car slowly stopped at the side of the road.

Manuel and Serina got out of the car. Ainsley felt awkward when she thought about hanging around

with them next.

She opened the window and said tentatively, "Serina, let your brother accompany you. I think I don't

need to get out."

Serina immediately grabbed Ainsley's arm and acted like a spoiled child. "Ainsley, I want you to

accompany me!"

Serina came to the market only to fix Ainsley up with Manuel. What was the point of Manuel and her

going alone?

Under Serina's repeated requests, Ainsley finally got out of the car.

Wolf Market was full of people wearing horrible clothes. Some even deliberately dressed up bloodily.

In the open-air market, there were people performing. Ainsley was grabbed by Serina, and her

shoulder was occasionally hit.

Soon, Manuel found that. He walked to the other side of Ainsley and blocked those people.

Serina shuttled through the crowd. When she saw strange things, she excitedly wanted to buy them.

Her head was covered with bee-like and butterfly-like hair accessories. She did not look like she was

passing Halloween Day.

"Ainsley, this is for you." Serina raised a hair accessory and was about to put it on Ainsley’s head.

Ainsley did not refuse but lowered her head slightly, making it convenient for Serina to wear it.

Through the mirror at the roadside stall, Ainsley saw the hair accessory Serina had given her. It was a

glowing spider, which was particularly eye catching among the crowd.

When Ainsley was still thinking about whether to take it down, she met Manuel's gentle eyes. He was

staring at her smilingly.

"What... what are you looking at?" Ainsley turned around directly.

Serina was as lively as an elf, shuttling back and forth. Ainsley and Manuel followed behind her,

bumping into each other from time to time.

"Ainsley, Manuel, I'm going to buy ice cream. Wait for me here." With that, Serina immediately ran into

the ice cream shop by the side of the road, leaving only Ainsley and Manuel looking at each other.

Manuel knew what Serina was thinking.

The sweet smell of the candied fruit filled Ainsley's nose. She had just taken a bite when she smelled

something strange.

A strong smell of blood came from the distance. Ainsley frowned awkwardly. The smell made her want

to vomit.

The smell of blood became stronger and stronger, and she almost spat it out.

"Aisy, what's wrong?" Manuel detected Ainsley's abnormality.

"Disgusting smell." Ainsley’s face was pale, and she felt dizzy.

The noise around her made her gradually lose consciousness. A red blood mist enveloped her. She

watched a person walk toward her with a bowl in his hand in fear.

"Drink this."

Ainsley was stunned. Why would she have such an illusion?

'I won't drink it!"

But the man desperately leaned the bowl closer to Ainsley, wanting to pour it into her mouth.

Ainsley suddenly knocked over the bowl. The bright red occupied her world. There was blood in the

bowl. The scarlet blood. She closed her eyes in horror.

"Aisy! Ainsley, what's wrong?" Manuel gripped Ainsley's shoulder and shook it twice.

Ainsley opened her eyes again and saw Manuel’s worried expression. Blood mist, that man, and the

bowl filled with blood were all gone.

What was that just now? Was it an illusion?

Ainsley rubbed her eyes. The one dressed as Edward Scissorhands holding a prop filled with blood as

he passed by. She looked a little embarrassed. It turned out that the smell came from that.

"I'm fine," Ainsley said softly.

Manuel followed Ainsley's gaze and saw the prop. He walked over and blocked her view.

"Don't look at it."

Ainsley's face was pale. Just seeing this red prop made her feel strange.

At this moment, a scream came from the ice cream shop behind them.

Ainsley and Manuel turned their heads abruptly and looked at each other. "It's Serina!"

Ainsley and Manuel quickly ran over and saw Serina standing at the ice cream shop entrance, looking

at the crowd in horror. However, people surrounding Serina were pointing at her.

"Serina, what's wrong?" Ainsley hurriedly walked over and pulled Serina close to her.

Serina saw Ainsley as if she had seen her savior. The ice cream in her hand had already melted and

flowed onto her hand.

Manuel took the ice cream and threw it into the trash can. It could no longer be eaten.

Then, he took a handkerchief to wipe Serina's hands and brought her out of the crowd.

"Serina, what happened?"

Serina trembled all over. She reached out and pointed in a direction, her hand shaking. "Bad ... bad

guys are there."

Looking in the direction she pointed, Ainsley saw a few men in black standing at a corner not far away,

and a woman was tied in the middle.

With just one look, Ainsley and Manuel knew those were not real people but models specially made for

Halloween.

However, the vulnerable Serina couldn't discriminate the real people from models. She hid behind

Ainsley in horror.

"Serina, those are all fake. Don't look. Let's go back." Ainsley grabbed Serina's hand and led her out of

Wolf Market and into the parking lot.

Manuel had driven the car over, and they got in the car.

After leaving Wolf Market, Serina finally calmed down.

She gradually regained her senses. Looking at Manuel, who was driving, and the worried Ainsley,

Serina said guiltily, "Manuel, Ainsley, it's all my fault.

I had a relapse again."

"What nonsense are you saying? Serina, it is not your fault." Ainsley stroked Serina's head to comfort

her.

Serina leaned into Ainsley's arms and asked a question that she had wanted to ask a long time ago,

"Ainsley, can my illness really be cured?"

It was a question that she had thought about for a long time. Serina had been treated so many times

but still repeatedly had a relapse. She was no longer confident about that.

Ainsley said solemnly, "Serina, do you trust me?"

Of course! I trust you, Ainsley."
