Starting with A Divorce novel (Ainsley and Cason) novel Chapter 392

You Are Threatening Me

Irene trembled slightly. Of course, She knew. She had used Ainsley’s life in exchange for the engagement banquet.

For so many days, Irene had been deceiving herself. She felt that Manuel might still like her. He would never compromise, even for Ainsley. After all, Manuel was so powerful in Seattle.

But now Irene had understood. Manuel had held the engagement banquet with her because he cared so much about Ainsley.

Their engagement banquet was held based on a deal. It was a trade and had nothing to do with love.

“Aren’t you afraid that I’ll tell her about what happened back then?” Irene became anxious because Manuel had pushed her too far.

When Manuel heard this, he chuckled. “Have you forgotten about what happened in Ocala?”

Irene felt a chill and froze. “What… What are you talking about? I don’t understand.”

“You don’t understand? If you don’t understand, go home and ask your grandfather. A lot more people ***when he tried to hide the fact! Irene, do you really not know?”

Manuel sneered. Irene must know it.

“Are you threatening me?” Irene’s eyes were filled with fear.

“You said that I’m threatening you. So, you do know about that matter?” Manuel sneered.

“I don’t know what you are talking about. What Ocala? What fact?” Irene’s shoulders. trembled. She was almost crazy.

“If you really didn’t know it, you wouldn’t have responded like that.” Manuel paused for a while and continued, “If you can pretend it forever, do it then. But don’t ever hurt the people around me, and don’t even think about using them to threaten me.

“Before that, I will have a fair competition with you. You always say that the Wade Group is equal to the Gage Group, don’t you? Well. Let’s see who will lose.”

Manuel turned around to leave. Irene seemed to have just recovered from the shock. She hurriedly pulled him. “Manuel! Please don’t cancel the engagement banquet. I really care about you. I have looked forward to it for so long. Ever since we picked the date, I have been imagining it day and night. I even dream about the engagement banquet. You can’t leave me!”

Irene knew that if Manuel canceled it, she would become the laughingstock of people in

Seattle, and the Wade Group would be affected.

Moreover, when she said that the Wade Group was equal to the Gage Group, it had the Gage Group’s support.

Manuel had never said so many words to Irene within one day.

Irene was still astonished long after Manuel left. The biggest shock to her was undoubtedly the matter of Ocala.

Irene thought, the factory was destroyed after the explosion. How did he find out about it?

She thought that she had known Manuel’s soft spot, but she did not expect that Manuel had gotten the goods on the Wade Group.

No! I can’t let him expose it! If the matter of Ocala is exposed, Grandpa will blame me.

I must do something. I can’t let anyone get to know that.

At the Gage’s house.

Irene said, “Koen, I’m here to see you.”

Koen looked at her coldly. The news about Serina had spread on the internet. Naturally,

Koen heard of it too.

Koen snorted coldly, “How dare you come to the Gage’s house?”
