Starting With A Divorce Chapter 325


    Chapter 325 They Are Getting Engaged


    Ainsley looked at Matteo and felt that something might be wrong.


    “Matteo, what’s wrong?” asked Ainsley.


    “Well, nothing.” He looked a little anxious.


    Ainsley coughed lightly. “What are you concealing from me? Is it about Manuel?”


    Matteo avoided any eye contact with Ainsley, immediately stood up, and went away.


    “Matteo! Tell me what exactly happened?” Ainsley asked. She thought that something must have


    happened during the night when she fell unconscious.


    “Aisy, please have a good rest and take the soup. Don’t think about anything else,”forted Matteo.


    He did not want Ainsley to know what had happened, but Ainsley stretched out her hand in front of him


    and


    ordered, “Matteo, give me the remote control.”


    Matteo quickly put the remote control behind him.


    Ainsley immediately rushed over. Matteo was afraid of hurting her, so he did not overreact. In the end,


    Ainsley


    took away the remote control.


    Ainsley turned on the TV. The news she heard just now was gone. She changed the channel in a daze


    and


    finally found traces of Manuel in a financial channel.


    “It is said that under the witness of Mr. Strato, Mr. Gage, Ms. Wade announced their engagement at


    night two


    days ago. ording to the media, when they were still little kids, they were arranged to get married


    after


    growing up. Being childhood friends for many years, they will tie the knot… The Wade Group and the


    Gage


    Group were both influential and powerful, and the marriage between the two families would, by all


    means, bring changes to Seattle…” said the financial channel.


    Ainsley was staring at the TV in a daze till the news ended. Suddenly, she realized why Irene let her


    go.


    The reason was that Irene had already obtained Manuel and they were about to get engaged.


    “Aisy, I will always protect you. I will never leave you.”


    “Aisy, you know I really love you. Please believe me no matter what happens next.”


    At the thought of those words Manuel told her before, Ainsley smiled bitterly, “How I can believe you?”


    Facing reality, Ainsley could hardly ept that Manuel was engaged to Irene for the purpose of


    protecting


    her.


    She suddenly remembered what Irene had said, “What you can do now is to be obedient…”


    It turned out that she was just a tool, which was used to make Manuel surrender. Now, Manuel already


    surrendered, so she becarne useless ordingly.


    “It exins the matter…” she muttered to herself.


    “Cut Bone


    “Aisy, what’s wrong?” Matteo patted Ainsley’s shoulder worriedly.


    I’m fine, Matteo,” answered Ainsley.


    At the Gage’s house.


    At dinner, Irene served Koen cordially and made him much delighted, and even Manuel took a few


    more


    nces.


    This scene made Serina quite displeased, but she must pretend to be kind to Irene. She said in a soft


    voice to Irene, “Ms. Wade, you are such a nice person and how can you behave so thoughtfully before


    marriage?”


    Manuel frowned slightly. “Serina.”


    “What’s up? Did I say something wrong? You haven’t even gotten engaged or married,” Serina said


    with her voice gradually turning lower under Koen’s gaze. Finally, she didn’t dare to say anything else.


    “Serina, I know you **me because of Ainsley. But, even if I be Manuel’s fiancée, Ainsley can still


    be your best friend. Your rtionship will not change. The one who made this choice is your brother,


    but not me. For me, I just like him and it is not my fault,” Irene sadly looked at Serina and exined.


    She lowered her head and looked pitiful, but Serina was irritated and said, “Don’t act like this! It’s as if 1


    -bullied you.”


    “Serina, do you remember that we two know each other even earlier than you and Ainsley, right? In the


    past, we chatted and went shopping together. We were so happy. But why did you start to *me after


    you knew Ainsley? I feel sad,” Irene said.


    Serina was stunned on the spot and did not know how to answer. Indeed, she regarded Irene as a


    barricade


    between Manuel and Ainsley.


    Generally speaking, Irene treated her quite well. Serina said, “I… It’s all Manuel’s fault!”


    Then, she dropped her fork and ran into the room.


    Irene concealed the smile in her eyes. She knew that Serina was easy to control.


    At the Baldry family.


    Cason returned home from thepany with fatigue. In the living room, Lindsay and severaldies


    were


    ying poker games.


    “Cason is back?” Lindsay kept her eyes fixed on the poker cards.


    Cason took off his coat and went upstairs. The conversation between Lindsay and the otherdies still


    echoed in his ears.


    “Have you heard that Manuel Gage was engaged to Irene Wade? The engagement party will be held in


    one month. The girl named Ainsley from the Easton family was kicked out.”


    “Well, I already said it. That girl desires to marry into a powerful family, but Manuel Gage doesn’t like


    her!”


    “Apart from Manuel Gage, Koen Gage, such a powerful figure, would not ept such a girl either.


    When I


    participated in Manuel Gage’s birthday banquet, I saw clearly that Koen Gage did not like her.”


    “I really want to see the reaction of the Easton family, but unfortunately, I can’t see it.”


    “Mrs. Baldry, you are much more rxed now. You don’t need to take care of your pregnant daughter-


    inw.”


    Lindsay said ufortably, “Kaliyah was framed by that Ainsley!”


    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    “Bang!”


    The door of the study was mmed ***. Cason leaned against the door and pondered for a long time.


    Of course, he knew about the engagement between Manuel and Irene, and he also knew about the


    kidnapping of Ainsley that night.


    Cason secretly searched for Ainsley for a long time, but there were no clues.


    When Manuel and Irene were engaged that night, Cason found Ainsley at the entrance of the


    University of


    Washington and he breathed a sigh of relief.


    With his current identity, Cason could not approach Ainsley directly. His sentiment battled with


    rationality.


    and the former prevailed, so he nearly lost control of himself.


    Sitting in the study room in agony, Cason opened the drawer and took out a photo album. It was the


    family photo album made by Ainsley. From the moment he found it, he ced it in his drawer and took


    it out


    whenever he had time to take a look.


    Every time he woke up at midnight and missed Ainsley too much, then he would go into the study room


    and take a look at the photo album. It would always make him feel a moment of peace.


    However, as the peaceful moment went by, Cason was soon filled with a greater sense of loneliness,


    especially when the darkness and emptiness of the room besieged him.


    Cason assumed that if everything could go back to a time when they had not divorced, or back to a


    time. when he first met Ainsley, thus he would definitely care about Ainsley very much.


    Thinking of this, Casonughed at himself. How could there be so many assumptions in the world?


    He did not even turn on the lights in the study, but just sat down and touched Ainsley’s face in the


    photo under the moonlight.


    “Ainsley, are you okay now?” murmured Cason.


    In the intensive care unit, at Virginia Mason Hospital.


    Ainsley coughed violently. The nurse changed the medicine for her.


    “When can I leave the hospital?” She asked.
