Starting with A Divorce novel (Ainsley and Cason) novel Chapter 124

Chapter 124 Mathew Has Fainted

“You’re hurt.” His voice was a little low.

The dark clouds exploded in a blinding light with thunders. Ainsley shivered and flung herself into

his arms.

She was most afraid of rainy days and thunder.

Manuel took her in his arms, wrapped one hand around her waist and stroked her hair.

She didn’t see the guilt and panic in Manuel’s eyes.

Ainsley sniffed his chest, feeling full of security. She thought that Manuel probably felt sorry for not being able to come to her sooner.

The next day, the night’s rain had evaporated. The sun was bright. It was as if last night’s rain did

not exist.

Ainsley opened her eyes but found that the person beside her had already left. She touched the pillow. He should be long gone.

She got dressed and went out of the bedroom. Breakfast was already set on the dining room table, along with a note.

“Good morning, I’m off to work.”

There was a heart drawn under the words. She laughed. It was drawn by Mr. Gage.

She took a picture of the little note with the heart and posted it. The first person to like it was Serina, who also commented.

“Ainsley, I know who drew it!”

Lainey asked under Serina’s comment, “Serina! Is it the one I’m wondering about?”

“Lainey, who is the one you are wondering about?”

“It’s the one you’re wondering about!” Lainey replied again.

Roman also appeared and replied directly to Lainey, “Are you two playing tongue twisters?”

Lainey and Serina replied to him at the same time. “Go away! Cook, do your work!”

Ainsley laughed out loud as she ate her breakfast and watched them bicker.

Until Manuel suddenly replied to Lainey’s comment, “It’s me.”

Serina was thrilled. “Manuel! Go for it! Work on!”

Lainey was also excited. “I knew it was you! Must invite me to Pearl Hotel for dinner and just order

that cook to serve us.

Roman pleads, “Mr. Gage, look, they’re all bullying me!”

Ainsley put away her phone, finished her breakfast and went to work.

At the University of Washington, Ainsley was working on her paper, inspired by the latest symposium materials that Mollie had passed on to her.

After her last paper was accepted into Psychological Science, she became a rising psychologist.

This time, the research was more cutting-edge and required a lot of information, so she had to turn

to Mollie.

After writing a part of the paper, three students came to her consulting room.

One of them looked submissive, while the other two were lively and cheerful, chattering all the

time.

The other two girls said, “Ms. Easton, this is my roommate. She has been discouraged by her family from being autistic. Today she received a phone call. They said she would be beaten to death. We saw that she had been dazed and did not talk. Just now in the dormitory, we saw her holding a small knife at her wrist, which was particularly horrible, so we brought her here.”

Ainsley took the girl to the office and began to question her carefully.
