Starting with A Divorce by Gloria Warren

Chapter 439 Are You Coming?

“Ms. Easton, to be honest, today is my birthday. I used to live alone. Then you came into my life and made me

feel truly alive.”

Rich and powerful families were complicated. Ainsley did not know what he had experienced and was not

interested in knowing, but seeing his expression, she decided to try to believe him once.

“Okay, I can sit with you for a while. You have to remember what you said. Don’t come to me again after

today.”

“You are really heartless.” Daniel smiled bitterly.

Ainsley sat down, and Daniel served her tea again. “Try it. This tastes really good.”

Ainsley rarely drank tea, and she probably felt she had gotten rid of a problem, so she did not refuse this

time.

She picked up the tea cup and took a sip. The faint fragrance of the tea caressed her taste buds, leaving a

rich aftertaste.

She sat quietly under Daniel’s fervent gaze. Ainsley could only lower her head and drink the tea mouthful by

mouthful to *********time.

She glanced at her watch from time to time, thinking she would find an excuse to leave five minutes later.

Daniel was unexpectedly silent and did not stare at her. It seemed he could be trusted.

Two minutes later, Ainsley suddenly felt a little dizzy.

She held her forehead and gently closed her eyes. After feeling better, she felt the temperature of the room

seemed to rise a lot.

She couldn’t help but pull her collar and look up at the air conditioner. It was closed.

Ainsley felt something was wrong and quickly got up before she lost her composure. She quickly said, “I’ll go

first. I have some work to do in the school.”

This time, Daniel was not so easy to talk to, and he was flippant again.

He stood up, his tall body blocking in front of Ainsley. Looking at her charming expression, he reached out

and wanted to touch her face, but she dodged.

“Ms. Easton, do you feel hot?” Daniel smiled casually, his eyes flashing with confidence.

Ainsley suddenly raised her head and staggered back two steps. She was alert. “What did you do to me?”

Even if there was no evidence, she was sure there was something in the tea.

Daniel gave an evil smile. “Don’t worry, Ms. Easton. I won’t hurt you. It’s just something that can make you happy.”

As he spoke, he wanted to get close to Ainsley. The scent of his high-level perfume became particularly

tempting.

Ainsley was an adult and could guess the medicinal properties through her reactions.

She bit the tip of her tongue, and the sudden pain made her sober up a little. She barely managed to stand

firm.

She also tried to stop Daniel with her cold eyes, but little did she know her teary eyes would only evoke his

desire.

She no longer had the strength to resist, and Daniel could knock her down.

But he wanted Ainsley to take the initiative, so he restrained himself and sat very close to her. He undid his buttons,

revealing his well-defined abs.

Ainsley could at most hold on for a dozen minutes.

To enjoy himself more, Daniel chose to continue waiting.

Ainsley panted with difficulty. She walked to the screen, Daniel sat down again and did not stop her. She

didn’t rest and walked to the door with great difficulty.

However, as soon as she took a step, her body began to go soft. Every part of her body seemed to be on fire,

torturing her mind.

At this moment, she hoped Manuel could immediately appear in front of her and save her from **********.

However, what she did not know was that Daniel had a helper. He was not the only one who planned this

conspiracy.

“What did you say?” Manuel’s fingers around the phone suddenly turned **********, and the atmosphere became

oppressive.

Even through the microphone, Irene felt the pressure. She gasped quietly, making her voice sound calm. “Didn’t

you want to know how Koen fainted that day? I can tell you.”

Manuel did not trust her much. Moreover, they were on opposite sides now.

“What are the conditions?”

Irene only needed to stall. After thinking for a while, she changed her tone and sounded a little melancholy. “If I say

there are no conditions, you definitely won’t believe me.”

Before Manuel could reply, she continued to say, “I’ll be waiting for you at Quelan Restaurant on Marlone Street.

See you in twenty minutes. I will tell you what you want to know in person. It will depend on whether

you come or not.”

After that, she hung up the phone.

Manuel did not think much about it. He stood up and prepared to go out.

His assistant happened to have a document for him to sign. When he came in and saw Manuel was in a rush

to leave, he was shocked and asked, “Mr. Gage, you have a meeting in half an hour.”

Manuel glanced at him and said calmly, “The meeting is postponed. Cancel the meeting if I don’t come back before

five o’clock.”

On the other side, after ending the call, Irene changed her clothes and walked to the bathroom.

The servant who was waiting at the side could not hold back her curiosity and asked in confusion, “Miss,

aren’t you going out?”

Irene stopped in her tracks and tightened her shawl around her shoulders, her eyes turning cold. “Are you new

here?”

The servant replied in confusion, “I came yesterday.”

“Okay,” Irene said, “I don’t need you here. Go now.”

The servant vaguely sensed the change in her tone. She did not dare to ask anymore and quickly left.

Manuel arrived at the appointed place on time, but the restaurant manager said he did not receive an

appointment.

Hearing that, Manuel endured his anger and called Irene. “Where are you?”

Irene had not left the house yet, but she replied slowly, “There is a traffic jam. You can book a private room

first. I will be there soon.”

Manuel rubbed his eyebrows and did not speak again. He hung up the phone.

After Manuel waited for about ten minutes, Irene finally arrived.

Manuel was sitting on the sofa. His eyes were cold, and his body exuded an aura that would not allow

strangers to approach.

Irene stood at the door and stared at him greedily for a few seconds before entering the room. In the blink of

an eye, she acted like a noble lady again.

“Sorry to keep you waiting.” As soon as Irene sat down, she called the waiter over and opened the menu.

“Order something to eat first.”

Manuel said coldly, “Just say what you want. I didn’t bring any recording equipment.”

The waiter stood at the side. When he heard that, he was a little confused, but he knew something must be going

on between these two people. He could only lower his head and pretend not to understand.

Irene felt ashamed and looked up at the waiter with a forced smile. “Two portions of French foie gras and the

rest shall be decided by your chef.”

“Okay, please wait for a moment.” The waiter took the menu.

As soon as the waiter left, Irene changed her expression, and her eyes were full of resentment. “Manuel, do you

have to make it so difficult between us?”

“Ms. Wade, I think you are overthinking it. You can just say what you want, but I will get something in return.”
