Chapter 89 Cook Together
Cason had just signed the contract at a high–end coffee shop. He had been feeling uneasy all this time, and his mind was filled with images of Ainsley and Manuel standing together.
After leaving the coffee shop, the dessert shop next to him lined up in a long line, and it was lively.
Noticing that Cason glanced at the dessert shop, his assistant said, “Mr. Baldry, this dessert shop is called Flavor Dessert Shop. It is very famous in Seattle. Many people will especially drive several hours to line up to buy desserts. It has become a must–go place. Unfortunately, the shop is limited in supply every day, and there will always be a group of people who can’t buy desserts.”
Flavor Dessert Shop?
Cason seemed to have heard this name before. Where did he hear it from?
That day, when he just got off work and returned home, Ainsley excitedly showed him the things she bought. On the coffee table,
there were various desserts.
“Cason, look, this is a very famous ice tart. I lined up for three hours to buy them. Come and try.”
Ainsley was smiling as she gently picked up an ice tart and put it in his mouth. But he only glanced coldly at it and said, “I don’t have
time. I have to work. Don’t disturb me.”
At that time, he saw that her eyes suddenly dimmed, but he did not care. Anyway, he did not like Ainsley, and he did not care about
what she felt.
He did not care if what he said would make her sad, nor did he care that she had lined up so long just to buy desserts for him.
He instantly remembered the old days. The ice tart that he had not eaten was right next to his mouth, emitting a faint cold and sweet
scent.
“Do they sell ice tarts?” Cason suddenly asked.
The assistant was stunned for a moment and immediately replied, “Yes, ice tarts seem to be the most famous dessert there.”
“Go buy some, plus other desserts.”
When the assistant went to line up, Cason touched his chest. He had a strange feeling. His heart

couldn’t wait to fill up all these gaps.
Cason didn’t like Ainsley. He just wanted to make up for her. He felt guilty for what he had done, and he
didn’t want to feel so
uncomfortable.
He sat in the car and waited for a long time. He watched as the number of people lining up in the dessert
shop decreased little by
little.
He was thinking about what Ainsley was thinking about when she lined up for three hours to buy
desserts.
The assistant brought the dessert back. The sweet smell instantly filled the car.
“You can go back by yourself. I have something to do. You don’t need to go back to the company. Go to
accompany your girlfriend.”
“Yes, Mr. Baldry.” The assistant was overjoyed.
Cason stopped at the pharmacy and bought a burn ointment.
There was a supermarket under Ainsley’s apartment, and there were some shops on the second floor.
She, Manuel, and Serina were doing grocery shopping at the supermarket.
The shopping cart that Serina pushed had already been filled with goods. Except for seasonings, there
were various fruits and vegetables.
“Shall we go and see the meat?” Ainsley said.
Manuel nodded and followed behind Ainsley.
While buying meat, Serina kept holding Ainsley’s hand, making Ainsley hurt.
The meat looked even bloodier under the purple light. Serina nervously muttered, “Let me go. Let me go.
Help me, Manuel.”
“It’s fine, Serina. We’ll leave immediately,” Ainsley hurriedly covered her eyes.
These past few days, Serina’s conditions were better after Ainsley’s care. She didn’t want Serina to be
scared anymore.
“Manuel, you will buy some meat. I’ll take Serina to the other side.”
After saying that, Ainsley brought Serina away. Manuel looked worried.
When they returned home, Ainsley cooked, and Manuel helped her.
Just as they were busy, the doorbell rang.
Serina got up and opened the door. When she opened the door and saw the comer, she took a few steps
back in fear and immediately ran to the kitchen. “Ainsley, someone is here…”
“Who is it?” Ainsley wiped her hands.
When she saw the person outside the door, she was stunned. It was Cason.
“Cason, what’s the matter?” she asked with a frown.
“Ainsley, why is Serina at your house?” Cason did not expect that it was Serina who opened the door.
However, when he saw Ainsley wearing an apron, he felt that he had returned to the old days.
“Mr. Baldry, it has nothing to do with you who I invited to my house. What exactly do you want? If there’s
nothing else, please leave. I’m
busy and don’t have time to chat with you,” Ainsley said coldly.
Cason hurriedly raised the box containing the desserts. “Today, I discussed business at a coffee shop
beside Flavor Dessert Shop. I remembered that you liked the desserts there, so I bought some for you.”
Ainsley was annoyed, and her eyes became colder and colder. “Mr. Baldry, you especially came here to

“No. I bought you the burn ointment. It was Kaitlin’s fault last time. I have already sent the compensation money to your bank card. I bought this from a pharmacy.” He took out the burn ointment from the bag.
“No, thanks. I don’t need to apply for medicine now.”
“I…”
Just as Cason was about to say something, Manuel walked out of the kitchen.
“Who is it? Why did it take so long?” Manuel said gently.
Cason looked pale and put the herbal tea back in the bag. He looked at Ainsley and asked, “Why is he here too?”
Cason thought, why is Manuel always at her home?
Have they confirmed their relationship? Or is Manuel chasing her?
It must be the latter.
Cason knew what that meant in Manuel’s eyes. It was like a beast protecting its prey.
Manuel looked at him as if he was looking at another beast, and his eyes were full of vigilance.
Manuel’s eyes were cold as he walked out.
Ainsley replied impatiently, “I have already said that it has nothing to do with you. Cason, if you are only here to deliver desserts and ointment, please leave. I don’t like the desserts and I don’t need the ointment.”
“Mr Baldry, so you are here to deliver the ointment. I wonder if Ms. Pasker knows about this, Manuel said sharply and looked at Cason unsympathetically.
“Mr Gage, I didn’t know you were here,” Cason said meaningfully.
“It has nothing to do with you,” Manuel said with a dark face.
“Mr. Gage, you should know that I am her ex–husband,” Cason said solemnly.
“Yes, you are just her ex–husband. You have divorced. So you have nothing to do with Aisy now. She has already asked you to go, so please go.” Manuel was aggressive as he stared at Cason.
Ainsley sneered, “If you don’t leave, I will call the police. You will be detained for a few days for trespassing. I will send you to stay
with Kaitlin.”
Cason looked deeply at them and turned to leave.
After Manuel and Ainsley closed the door, they returned to the kitchen. The water in the pot had been boiled, and the food had been processed and placed in the basin.
