Chapter 188 Consultation

Manuel smiled bitterly, “Why should I get rid of it?”

Ainsley smiled and didn’t answer him.

After thinking for a while, Ainsley took out the photo from her bag. Every time she saw this photo, she felt a chill.

She had never doubted her own life before, but this photo clearly told her that she had forgotten something very important.

Not only that, but Matteo and Manuel must know what it was.

She placed the photo on the table and slowly pushed it to Manuel. She frowned slightly and asked, “Manuel, have you seen this photo before?”

Manuel picked up the photo and took a look. The smile on his face disappeared, and his

this?” eyes suddenly turned cold. He asked, “Who gave you

Ainsley looked at him, feeling a strange relief. She didn’t need his reply and knew that Manuel must know where this photo came from.

She thought for a moment and asked, “Manuel, do you know this photo?”

Manuel’s eyes were cold. He grabbed her wrist and asked, “Tell me, who gave it to you?”

Ainsley felt a sharp pain in her hand and groaned, “What are you doing? Let me go!”

Hearing her cry of pain, Manuel suddenly realized what he was doing. He quickly let go

of her and apologized, “I’m sorry, Aisy.”

Ainsley glared at him and said grumpily, “What the hell is this photo?”

Manuel’s ink-black eyes were fixed on her, and he said, “Aisy, tell me first, who gave your

this photo?”

His voice sounded gentle, but his tone was dominant.

Ainsley took a deep breath. She knew Manuel wouldn’t tell her anything until he got the

answer

“I found it in the old house, but I haven’t gone back for several years.”

Manuel’s back tightened as he pinched the photo. Hearing her words, he seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and said slowly, “You may misremember. Serina had received treatment for a long time and only came back in the last two years.”

Ainsley felt a little relieved. So that was how it was, but his explanation still had not helped her solve the mystery of this photo.

Judging from what Manuel had hidden from her before, she couldn’t believe everything

he had said.

Ainsley put the photo back into the drawer, poured herself a cup of tea, and said, “Mr. Gage, I’ve asked all my questions. What do you want to ask?”

Evidently, she was chasing him away. Manuel smiled faintly and left the room.

Manuel sat in his exclusive seat at Pearl Hotel. It was rare for Roman didn’t come with him. He was outside this time but soon came to Manuel with something in hand.

Roman asked excitedly. “Mr. Gage, what present will you give Ms. Easton?”

Manuel hesitated and said, “A present? What present?”

Roman looked at Manuel in shock. He waved the invitation card in his hand and asked excitedly, “Don’t you know about Ms. Easton’s birthday banquet?”

Manuel frowned and asked, “When?”

Roman opened the invitation card, checked it, and said, “Three days later.”

He paused and asked, “Mr. Gage, you really haven’t received the invitation? Could it be that it hasn’t been delivered yet?”

Manuel nodded and did not say anything else.

Roman quickly served him the dishes. After putting the last dish on the table, he asked, “Mr. Gage, are you going to talk to Irene?”

Manuel shook his head and said, “No.”

Why didn’t Ainsley tell him she would hold a birthday party in three days?

She even sent an invitation card to Roman. How could she not invite him?

When Manuel returned home after dinner, he noticed that Serina was also holding an invitation card excitedly. When she saw him, she asked excitedly. “What gift do you think I should give Ainsley? I couldn’t figure out if she needed anything.” Manuel smiled bitterly as he entered the study and planned to ask Ainsley about the invitation card tomorrow.
