Starting With A Divorce Chapter 100
Chapter 100 The Gossip Is Real
Light and melodious music was yed in the hall. The sses were put in the shape of pyramids. They
were shining under the lights. Girls in expensive dresses wereughing and talking.
The jewels they wore made them look dazzling.
In the corner, Ainsley was wearing a tight ck velvet dress. The dress was designed by a famous
designer It perfectly outlined her shape.
Ainsley never wore any sparkling jewels. Only an emerald ne was enough to set off her beauty.
Beside Ainsley, Serina was wearing a princess gown. In her hands, there was dessert. As the hostess
of this banquet, her eyes were filled with cowardice and nervousness that shouldn’t exist.
Serina hid in the corner. Countless people came and went in front of her. Everyone put on a gentle
smile. But Serina always felt what she saw were countless ferocious faces. Nobody knew what was
behind those gentle smiles.
All Serina could rely on was Ainsley, who was beside her. The pain was rooted in her heart, though she
was safe now.
She shook the ss and the wine hung on the wall of the ss. However, she suddenly fell to the
ground: The ear piercing sound of ss shattering attracted many people’s attention.
“Serina, don’t be afraid. Look at me.” Ainsley walked to Serina’s side and held her hand.
Ainsley felt that Serina was holding her tightly, as if to crush her hand. “Serina, don’t be nervous. You
should have seen every face here before. They are not strangers or bad people. They won’t hurt you.
Look at me. I’m eating snacks, right? Look around us. I am here. Your brother is here. Your grandfather
is also in the private room on the second floor. So don’t be afraid, okay?”
Ainsley kept saying gentle words to Serina. Finally, Serina calmed down.
The waiter hade to clean up the ss shards in case someone was hurt.
“Ainsley, I don’t want to stay here anymore,” Serina said with a trembling voice.
Ainsley pondered for a while and then said, “Then I’ll take you to the private room on the second floor,
okay? We’lle down when the banquet begins.”
“Okay.”
Ainsley ced the te on the table and led Serina to the second floor.
The second floor was quiet. There were also a few private rooms for guests to rest on the second floor.
Koen had his own room to rest in here. Serina also had one.
There were many pieces of jewelry and dresses in Serina’s room. Most of them were brought here by
Manuel.
“Ainsley, I’m so tired.” Serina was so tired that she wanted to sleep.
“Serina, if you feel particrly sleepy, you can sleep for a while. I will stay with you.”
“Okay.” Serina nodded obediently.
She took off her shoes and climbed onto the bed, closing her eyes.
Ainsley walked around the private room. The jewels in the room were all in sets. They were all very
expensive
Serina seemed to be really tired. She closed her eyes and fell asleep.
When the banquet was about to begin, Serina was still sleeping. Ainsley called Serina a few times but
failed to wake her up.
Then Ainsley chose to let Serina continue sleeping.
She left a note for Serina and went down.
“You are Ainsley?” A woman blocked Ainsley’s path. Beside her, there were two other women who
looked at Ainsley with ill intentions
“I am. Anything?” Ainsley said expressionlessly
“I advise you to stay away from Manuel! You are not worthy of him. Why don’t you take a look at
yourself? You are just a poor woman
who has divorced.” The woman said mockingly.
No matter what she said, Ainsley remained expressionless “Are you done?”
Ainsley had heard something more vicious. These people were the same. Relying on their family
backgrounds, they bullied others at
will
Ainsley didn’t want to talk to them.
But Ainsley’s words angered the woman more. She pushed Ainsley. “How dare you talk to me like
this?”
Her sidekick hurriedly added, “Do you know who is standing in front of you? She’s Ms. E Alvarez.
Her father is the boss of Glory
Entertainment.”
Glory Entertainment?

It was a very famous entertainmentpany. It was more influential in the business industry than the
Baldry family, no wonder the
woman looked so arrogant.
Ainsley mocked herself, “I’m just a psychology teacher at university. How could I know someone noble
and powerful like you?”
“Are you mocking me?” E seemed excited. “I’m warning you! Don’t think that you can do whatever
you want just because you are
beautiful. There are many people in Seattle that you can’t afford to offend. Moreover, there are many
people who like Manuel You
better stay away from him and don’t keep pestering him.”
“Ms. Alvarez, I think you are mistaken. I have never pestered Mr. Gage and I have never done
whatever I want. This is Mr Gage’s
birthday party. Don’t cause trouble.” Ainsley said and was about to leave.
But E still stopped Ainsley. “What do you mean? Do you think Manuel can turn against me for you?
Don’t take yourself too
seriously!”
“What if I do?”
Ainsley straightened her back. E and the other two youngdies looked at the person who spoke.
Manuel walked over, walked straight to Ainsley, and pulled her to his side.
“Ms. Alvarez, I’m afraid you are mistaken. In fact, Aisy never pestered me, but I am pestering her.”
Manuel said coldly and distantly.
His broad arms covered most of Ainsley’s body, as if he was blocking the storm that passed by. Ainsley
was slightly dazed for a
moment.
He suddenly appeared in front of E and said those things seriously.
E panicked and her face went pale. “Mr. Gage, I didn’t mean it that way. I only heard recent gossip…”
“What gossip?” Manuel asked.
“There is gossip about you and Ainsley. Mr. Gage, they all say that you like Ain…”
“It’s true.”
“Ah?” E widened her eyes in shock and looked at Manuel in disbelief.
Even Ainsley, who was beside him, stopped breathing and looked down nervously at Manuel’s finger.
The veins on that hand bulged and slowly disappeared.
What she noticed was not only the veins but also the cufflinks. The cufflinks she gave Manuel were
now on his sleeves.
What was he saying? Did he like her?
“If there is nothing else, you can go eat something first. The banquet will begin immediately,” Manuel
said coldly.
E looked at Ainsley unwillingly. What Manuel said just now made her heart sink. “Mr. Gage, Ainsley
has been divorced. I heard that her reputation is not good. Do you really like her? Or have you been
deceived by her appearance?”
The atmosphere instantly fell to the freezing point. Manuel nced coldly at the three people. “I know
her better than you do. I won’t repeat these words again in the future.”
