Starting with A Divorce novel (Ainsley and Cason) novel Chapter 294

Chapter 294 Negligence

The third day after leaving the Easton family? It had already been so long.

She did not know how Serina had managed to hold on, but the bright red marks on her arm were enough to

explain everything.

Ainsley looked at Serina’s bruised arm with sympathy. “Are you ****? Does it not hurt?”

Serina shook her head. “At that time, I was so confused that I didn’t remember anything. I only knew that it

was like a nightmare. When I woke up, I found that my arm was full of scars.”

“What kind of nightmare?” Ainsley asked worriedly.

“I dreamed that someone came to catch me and said that they wanted to drink my blood and eat my flesh. I

was really scared.”

Ainsley knew that these words were not enough to describe Serina’s true feelings. For Serina, whenever she

thought of it, she would break down and cry hysterically.

As Serina spoke, her shoulders were shaking uncontrollably.

“Serina, stop talking.” Ainsley hurriedly stopped her.

“Ainsley, can you help me?” She threw herself into Ainsley’s arms.

“I will.” Ainsley patted her on the shoulder and rubbed her forehead.

.

Serina left the Gage family in the name of receiving treatment, so she had to hurry to see the psychologist.

After getting in the car, she looked at Ainsley reluctantly. “Ainsley, I will come to see you soon.”

Manuel was working. He stared at the stock on the computer screen. Recently, the stock value of the Gage Group had fallen. Now, it stabilized.

The assistant hesitated and knocked on the door. “Mr. Gage, Ms. Wade wants to invite you to dinner tonight.”

Manuel frowned slightly. He looked at the fluctuation of the Wade Group’s stock and nodded. The assistant

said a few words on the phone. After hanging up the phone, he said to Manuel, “Mr. Gage, Ms. Wade said that she will pick you up after work.”

Manuel relaxed and leaned against the chair. The coffee was already half cold. He casually picked it up and

took another sip.

Manuel had rejected Irene many times. Irene had not mentioned the engagement recently, but this matter

could not be dragged on forever. Sooner or later, either Irene or Manuel would make a decision.

He had heard about what Ainsley had experienced a few days ago. She made a scene. Manuel even asked

the police for help.

He pinched his eyebrows. He did a good job in the business world, but he did not know what to do in front of

Ainsley.

Manuel opened the photo that was stuck on the table. It was Ainsley’s smiling face. Perhaps this photo was

the only power that supported him.

“Mr. Gage, the meeting will be in half an hour.”

“I got it,” Manuel nodded.

Outside the Gage Group, a woman dressed in casual clothes entered the building. Before she could enter the

elevator, the receptionist stopped her. “Miss, who are you looking for? Do you have an appointment?”

Ainsley was stunned for a moment. “I’m looking for Manuel, I don’t have an appointment.”

The receptionist led her to the lounge. “Miss, you can’t see Mr. Gage without an appointment. Besides, Mr.

Gage is in a meeting now.”

Moreover, the meeting was now held by the board of directors. Even if there was an emergent matter, the

receptionist did not dare to disturb them. She looked at the woman in front of her and thought that Ainsley

would find trouble with Manuel. The receptionist thought for a moment and said, “Miss, I don’t know why you

are looking for Mr. Gage. Don’t misunderstand. I am thinking that if there is no special private matter, I can

relay your message.”

Ainsley shook her head. “It’s private.”

Noticing Ainsley’s cold attitude, the receptionist became less polite. “Miss, why don’t you go back first? Mr.

Gage is busy.”

Ainsley looked up at the receptionist and took out her phone to dial a number under the latter’s disdainful

eyes.

The receptionist frowned and wondered, who is she calling?

“Hello, I’m downstairs in the Gage Group. I have something to say to you.”

Ainsley sounded a little grumpy. The receptionist was still thinking about who Ainsley was calling.

Not long after, a shocking scene appeared. The CEO’s exclusive elevator ran quickly. The elevator door

opened and Manuel walked out. He went straight to Ainsley. He quickened his pace and said with a smile,

“Aisy, why are you here?”

Ainsley didn’t answer his question but said, “Go to your office. I have something to tell you.”

In the office, Ainsley looked at Manuel disapprovingly. “Mr. Gage, although I don’t know what you are thinking,

I know that you care about Serina very much. Then you should know that my treatment is best for her.”

She did not know why Manuel would suddenly stop her from treating Serina, but it should be related to the

hidden rnemories in Serina’s mind.

Manuel looked at her with a torn face. “Aisy, this is not just my decision. It is also my grandfather’s. I’m sorry.”
