Chapter 100

Chapter 100 The Gossip Is Real Light and melodious music was played in the hall. The glasses were put in the shape of pyramids. They were shining under the lights. Girls in expensive dresses were laughing and talking.

The jewels they wore made them look dazzling.

In the corner, Ainsley was wearing a tight black velvet dress. The dress was designed by a famous designer It perfectly outlined her shape.

Ainsley never wore any sparkling jewels. Only an emerald necklace was enough to set off her beauty.

Beside Ainsley, Serina was wearing a princess gown. In her hands, there was dessert. As the hostess of this banquet, her eyes were filled with cowardice and nervousness that shouldn’t exist.

Serina hid in the corner. Countless people came and went in front of her. Everyone put on a gentle smile. But Serina always felt what she saw were countless ferocious faces. Nobody knew what was behind those gentle smiles.

All Serina could rely on was Ainsley, who was beside her. The pain was rooted in her heart, though she was safe now.

She shook the glass and the wine hung on the wall of the glass. However, she suddenly fell to the ground: The ear piercing sound of glass shattering attracted many people’s attention.

“Serina, don’t be afraid. Look at me.” Ainsley walked to Serina’s side and held her hand.

Ainsley felt that Serina was holding her tightly, as if to crush her hand. “Serina, don’t be nervous. You should have seen every face here before. They are not strangers or bad people. They won’t hurt you. Look at me. I’m eating snacks, right? Look around us. I am here. Your brother is here. Your grandfather is also in the private room on the second floor. So don’t be afraid, okay?”

Ainsley kept saying gentle words to Serina. Finally, Serina calmed down.

The waiter had come to clean up the glass shards in case someone was hurt.

“Ainsley, I don’t want to stay here anymore,” Serina said with a trembling voice.

Ainsley pondered for a while and then said, “Then I’ll take you to the private room on the second floor, okay? We’ll come down when the banquet begins.”

“Okay.”

Ainsley placed the plate on the table and led Serina to the second floor.

The second floor was quiet. There were also a few private rooms for guests to rest on the second floor. Koen had his own room to rest in here. Serina also had one.

There were many pieces of jewelry and dresses in Serina’s room. Most of them were brought here by Manuel.

“Ainsley, I’m so tired.” Serina was so tired that she wanted to sleep.

“Serina, if you feel particularly sleepy, you can sleep for a while. I will stay with you.”

“Okay.” Serina nodded obediently.

She took off her shoes and climbed onto the bed, closing her eyes.

Ainsley walked around the private room. The jewels in the room were all in sets. They were all very expensive Serina seemed to be really tired. She closed her eyes and fell asleep.

When the banquet was about to begin, Serina was still sleeping. Ainsley called Serina a few times but failed to wake her up.

Then Ainsley chose to let Serina continue sleeping.

She left a note for Serina and went down.

“You are Ainsley?” A woman blocked Ainsley’s path. Beside her, there were two other women who looked at Ainsley with ill intentions “I am. Anything?” Ainsley said expressionlessly “I advise you to stay away from Manuel! You are not worthy of him. Why don’t you take a look at yourself? You are just a poor woman who has divorced.” The woman said mockingly.

No matter what she said, Ainsley remained expressionless “Are you done?”

Ainsley had heard something more vicious. These people were the same. Relying on their family backgrounds, they bullied others at will Ainsley didn’t want to talk to them.

But Ainsley’s words angered the woman more. She pushed Ainsley. “How dare you talk to me like this?”

Her sidekick hurriedly added, “Do you know who is standing in front of you? She’s Ms. Ella Alvarez. Her father is the boss of Glory Entertainment.”

Glory Entertainment?

It was a very famous entertainment company. It was more influential in the business industry than the Baldry family, no wonder the woman looked so arrogant.

Ainsley mocked herself, “I’m just a psychology teacher at university. How could I know someone noble and powerful like you?”

“Are you mocking me?” Ella seemed excited. “I’m warning you! Don’t think that you can do whatever you want just because you are beautiful. There are many people in Seattle that you can’t afford to offend. Moreover, there are many people who like Manuel You better stay away from him and don’t keep pestering him.”

“Ms. Alvarez, I think you are mistaken. I have never pestered Mr. Gage and I have never done whatever I want. This is Mr Gage’s birthday party. Don’t cause trouble.” Ainsley said and was about to leave.

But Ella still stopped Ainsley. “What do you mean? Do you think Manuel can turn against me for you? Don’t take yourself too seriously!”

“What if I do?”

Ainsley straightened her back. Ella and the other two young ladies looked at the person who spoke.

Manuel walked over, walked straight to Ainsley, and pulled her to his side.

“Ms. Alvarez, I’m afraid you are mistaken. In fact, Aisy never pestered me, but I am pestering her.” Manuel said coldly and distantly.

His broad arms covered most of Ainsley’s body, as if he was blocking the storm that passed by. Ainsley was slightly dazed for a moment.

Starting with A Divorce novel (Ainsley and Cason)

Chapter 99 Love’s Change of Heart Chapter 872 He suddenly appeared in front of Ella and said those things seriously.

Ella panicked and her face went pale. “Mr. Gage, I didn’t mean it that way. I only heard recent gossip...”

“What gossip?” Manuel asked.

“There is gossip about you and Ainsley. Mr. Gage, they all say that you like Ain...”

“It’s true.”

“Ah?” Ella widened her eyes in shock and looked at Manuel in disbelief.

Even Ainsley, who was beside him, stopped breathing and looked down nervously at Manuel’s finger.

The veins on that hand bulged and slowly disappeared.

What she noticed was not only the veins but also the cufflinks. The cufflinks she gave Manuel were now on his sleeves.

What was he saying? Did he like her?

“If there is nothing else, you can go eat something first. The banquet will begin immediately,” Manuel said coldly.

Ella looked at Ainsley unwillingly. What Manuel said just now made her heart sink. “Mr. Gage, Ainsley has been divorced. I heard that her reputation is not good. Do you really like her? Or have you been deceived by her appearance?”

The atmosphere instantly fell to the freezing point. Manuel glanced coldly at the three people. “I know her better than you do. I won’t repeat these words again in the future.”
