Starting With A Divorce Chapter 456


    Chapter 456 Childish


    Ainsley was speechless. She wondered who bought them and would like to deduct the employee’s


    sry.


    “You are the only one who gave me an apple.” Manuel finally looked up.


    “How is that possible? Didn’t you have Christmas before?” Ainsley was puzzled.


    “Arge number of people want to give me gifts every Christmas, but I always ask my assistant to


    return the gifts without unpacking a


    single one”


    “How pitiful!”


    If Serina were here, she would say, “Not at all! Could it be I give the apples to a dog every Christmas?”


    “Aisy. I’m so happy today.”


    “You’ve only been here for a few minutes. What are you happy about? Wait a minute! Don’t say cheesy


    pick-up lines!” Ainsley was


    shocked


    Roman leisurely walked over. “Mr. Gage, tell her the notes I wrote for you! It’s much better than those


    pick-up lines.”


    Lainey cheered from the side, “Good idea! Roman is the best at sweet words.”


    Ainsley patted her forehead. Lainey was incorrigible!


    “I don’t intend to say sweet words. I was just happy to see you,” Manuel exined.


    The noise fell silent again, and a man walked back with a woman on his back at the door.


    Manuel was angry at first nce. He walked over and took Serina from the man.


    After putting Serina down, Manuel found she was limping. “What’s wrong with your foot?”


    “I identally kicked a stone when I was walking. He carried me here.”


    Manuel looked at the man again. Miles’ outfit was so strangepared to the morous and beautiful


    clothes of the people in the


    room.


    “Thank you, sir. Sorry for the trouble.”


    “Not at all. Don’t mention it, Mr. Gage.”

    “Do you know me?” Manuel’s eyes shed a a trace of sharpness.


    “Mr. Gage of Seattle, I’ve always seen you on TV. I finally met you in person this time. It would be


    strange if I didn’t know you,” Miles


    said


    Serina immediately pulled Manuel’s arm. “Manuel, don’t be like interrogating a criminal. Miles is nice.”


    Who?


    Lainey looked over with bright eyes. After a while, she reacted to what Serina had just said. She red


    at the wrapped-up Miles instantly as if she wanted to see him through the sses and mask.


    “Miles?”


    Serina immediately signaled her not to say it. “Lainey, he’s indeed Miles. I didn’t know him at first.


    Later, I searched on the phone and found his photos. It’s indeed him. But he can’t show his face here.


    Don’t tell others, and don’t be too excited”


    “No problem!” Lainey nodded frantically.


    Roman came over and held Lainey in his arms. He said jealously, “He doesn’t look that handsome.


    He’s not even one-third as handsome as me.”


    Serinaughed happily. She quickly signaled Lainey with her eyes, “Let’s go to have fun, Lainey.


    Ainsley must be busy. Manuel, you will apany her, won’t you?”


    “Let’s go there.” Lainey pulled Roman away from Ainsley and Manuel.


    Ainsley had long seen through Serina’s thoughts, but with so many people present, it wasn’t proper for


    her to leave.


    “Crunch.”


    A crisp sound came from the side of her ear. Ainsley looked over and found Manuel eating the apple


    she had just given him.


    “Don’t eat,” Ainsley suddenly said.


    “Why? Isn’t the apple supposed to be eaten on Christmas Eve?” Manuel asked.


    “Continue.” Ainsley turned around. There were ginger cookies on the table. She randomly ced some


    on her te and two more


    pieces of pastries.


    However, Manuel walked over to her again and looked into her eyes. “Watch me eat.”


    Ainsley resisted the urge


    watch you eat an apple?”


    throw the te in her hand at his face. She gritted her teeth and said, “Are you a child who needs me


    to


    Why had she never realized Manuel was so childish in the past?


    Manuel’s lips were wet from the apple juice. Ainsley swallowed.


    She said, “I have to go.”


    “Is it that hard to say you want to kiss me?”


    “Who wants to kiss you? ***!” Ainsley unconsciously raised her voice, and a few pairs of eyes were cast


    on her.


    She immediately lowered her voice, “Narcissist.”


    Ainsley didn’t know what to do with him. Right at this time, Matteo walked over. She walked toward him,


    wanting to ask for help.


    Matteo hated Manuel the most and might drive him out.


    But to Ainsley’s surprise, Matteo did not say anything but talk about business.


    “Are you ready for that? The bidding will be held the day after tomorrow. I hope nothing goes wrong,”


    Matteo said solemnly.


    Manuel nodded and took another bite of the apple. “Have you read the tender book I sent over?


    Although I helped you this time, it is


    not enough to convince those old ***.”


    “Rest assured. Don’t underestimate the Easton Group and me.”


    “Crunch.”


    Matteo frowned slightly. “Can you stop eating the apple at this time? It looks **. Aren’t you afraid the


    reporters will photo you and


    put it online?”


    “It’s the apple Aisy gave me.” Manuel shrugged.


    “You didn’t give an apple to me. Matteo turned to look at Ainsley with a gloomy expression.


    “Huh?” Ainsley asked in disbelief. “Is it time to talk about this?”


    Manuel pointed to the table next to him. “She casually took one from there and gave it to me.”


    “Then I’m in a better mood.” Matteo finally restrained his anger.


    “You knew it, but why do you still eat it?” Ainsley looked at Manuel unpleasantly


    “Well, that’s because you were the one who handed it to me.” Manuel looked at Ainsley with a smile.


    Ainsley got goosebumps. She wondered if there was anything useful in the notes that Roman had


    given him apart from these greasy


    words.


    “Matteo, you have changed. You wanted to strangle him to death when you saw him. But now, you talk


    to him peacefully.” Ainsley always felt there was a conspiracy between them.


    Matteo smiled, “For amon goal. I’ll strangle him to death when it’s fulfilled.”


    “Please think about this when you strangle me to death, Mr. Easton. Now, we share the same enemy.


    Show mercy.”


    Matteo and Manuel talked back and forth. Ainsley was full of doubts but didn’t know where to start, so


    she just ignored them.


    Suddenly, the light in the hall was extinguished, and even the big screen at the back was turned off.


    Some people had screamed.


    Ainsley nced at Matteo not far away, whose eyes were also full of doubts. She was just about to find


    the manager when she saw


    Matteo had gone to do that.


    Serina was so scared that her face turned pale. She had been too far away from Ainsley to eat


    delicious food, and only Miles was


    beside her.


    Her trembling hands almost could not hold the ss. Serina nervously pinched the corner of Miles’


    clothes.


    “What’s wrong with you?” Miles asked with concern.


    “The… the electricity is off. I’m afraid of the dark.” Serina’s voice trembled.
