Starting with A Divorce by Gloria Warren

Chapter 488 Manuel Doesn’t Want to Give Up

Irene could no longer endure this kind of torture. She shouted in a hoarse voice, “Manuel, why did you do this to

me? What did I do wrong? Why can’t you show any mercy to me?”

Manuel finally walked to Irene’s front. Irene also had no way to retreat. She was forced into a corner, and her mind

was about to collapse

But this time, Manuel didn’t directly attack. He slowly squatted down and looked into Irene’s frightened eyes.

Manuel’s voice seemed to come from the depths of ***, causing people to feel fear from the bottom of their hearts.

He said, “Irene, you want to get others’ sympathy. But you don’t deserve it at all t

Irene had always been ****. Even if she had almost lost everything, the pride that she had suppressed in the depths

of her heart would still pop out from time to time.

Irene covered her chest, and there were shocking purple marks on her neck. She panicked, but she still said, “I

don’t know what you are talking about. Besides, it is not up to you to decide whether I deserve it or not.”

Manuel clapped his hands expressionlessly. “Good. Nice show. But there is still something missing in your

performance.”

Irene glared at Manuel. At this time, Manuel suddenly asked, “Where were you when Ainsley had a car accident?”

The anger in Irene’s heart suddenly disappeared. She felt a chill down her spine because of Manuel’s sentence.

Irene immediately lowered her head and tried to avoid Manuel’s eyes. “I was at home.”

“Really?” Manuel stood up and looked down at Irene. He said coldly, “I originally wanted to give you a chance. But

now, it seems that you don’t need it.”

Irene suddenly raised her head. At this moment, she felt like her whole person was wrapped in fear. “What are you

doing?”

Manuel said slowly, “Nothing. I just want to tell you one thing. Cherish the good times of the present. Later, you may

regret coming to this world.”

After Manuel left, Irene sat on the ground in a daze. Her clothes were stained with mud. But this couldn’t attract

Irene’s attention.

Irene’s mind was filled with what Manuel had said before he left. Those words were like sharp blades that hung over

Irene’s head.

Even though the sun was high up in the sky, and the temperature was warm enough to make people feel

comfortable, Irene only felt a chill all over her body.

After an unknown period of time, Irene slowly got up, staggered back to her room, and locked herself in the room.

Serina learned from her classmates that Ainsley had a car accident and almost ***two days ago.

Serina ran to the teacher’s office in a panic, choking with sobs, and asked for a note because she had to go to the

hospital now.

Serina’s hands trembled uncontrollably as she wrote the note. Only by using all the strength in her body could she

barely stop her

tears from blurring her vision.

The teacher knew that Serina was Ainsley’s close friend, so she sighed to comfort Serina, “Don’t cry. Dr. Easton is

fine now.”

Serina nodded perfunctorily, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, took the note for leave, and ran to

the entrance of the campus:

The guard was almost hit by Serina. He shouted at Serina, “Hey, girl, be careful. Even if there is something urgent,

you still have to be careful”

If it was the usual time, Serina would turn her head and thank the quard politely.

But now, Senna only wanted to rush to Ainsley’s side. Thus, all the voices of the people around her were thrown to

the back of her mind at this time.

Finally, Serina arrived at the hospital. But after arriving at the door of Ainsley’s ward, Serina stopped and did not

dare to go in.

When the nurse came to check on the patient, she found Senna and asked her politely. “Are you Ms Easton’s friend?

Why don’t you go in?”

When Serina heard the nurse’s voice, her heart skipped a beat. Before she could say anything, the nurse had

already opened the door.

Then, Serina met Ainsley’s eyes. Ainsley was sitting on the bed. It looked like Ainsley had lost a lot of weight.

The nurse entered the ward first. She checked on the patient according to the routine procedure. Then, she left

after reminding Ainsley of a few dos and don’ts

Serina stood at the door and didn’t know what to do next. After the door of the ward was closed again, Serina

lowered her head and whispered, “Ms Easton, I’m sorry. I didn’t know you had an accident until today.

But before Serina could finish her words, Ainsley interrupted her and said coldly, “Whether I’m fine or not has

nothing to do with you. You don’t have to apologize to me.”

Serina was stunned.

Because of Ainsley’s indifference, Serina froze in place, unable to come back to her senses for a long time..

“Ms. Easton, are you angry?”

Ainsley closed her eyes. A few minutes later, she said calmly. “I have regained my memory. I remember

everything”

Serina sniffled, unable to adapt to Ainsley’s cold attitude. But she still asked carefully, “Ms. Easton, what do you

remember?”

Ainsley didn’t intend to tell Serina. After all, Serina hadn’t fully recovered from her psychological disorder.

Ainsley remembered that she had been kidnapped and tortured. She also remembered that Serina suffered from

psychological disorder because of her.

If Ainsley told Serina what Serina wanted to know, no one would know what would happen to Serina. Most

importantly, Ainsley was still injured and couldn’t treat Serina if something really happened to Serina.

“Ms. Easton, why aren’t you saying anything?” Serina pinched the comer of her school uniform and took a few

steps forward. She

looked at Ainsley nervously. “I know I’m late. Ms. Easton, you can scold me, and I won’t retort.”

Ainsley sighed helplessly. She rubbed her forehead and said, “I’m not angry. I’m just a little tired. You can leave first.

Let me rest alone for a while.”

Senna didn’t want to leave. But she was also afraid that Ainsley would ****her. So, Serina could only take small

steps to the door. As she walked, she looked back from time to time, looking very pitiful.

Ainsley lay on the hospital bed, thinking about what had happened in her dream. Three years ago, she met Manuel

and fell in love with him. But the sweet moments later became pure mockery when Ainsley found out the truth.

Ainsley couldn’t forget everything that Scar said. She also couldn’t forget that when she and Serina were suffering

the cruelest torture,

Manuel and Irene were having a good time with each other.

All of Ainsley’s emotions turned into bubbles the moment Ainsley saw her father ***on the way to save her. But at

that time, Ainsley was still sad because of Manuel.

Ainsley thought she must be the most ***person in the world.

Two streams of tears flowed down Ainsley’s cheeks. The more Ainsley thought about her past, the more she

couldn’t hold back her tears. The more she forced herself not to think about it, the clearer those scenes became in

her mind.

Ainsley forced Matteo to go to the company to deal with business matters. She didn’t want to see anyone at

present

There was only Ainsley in the ward. But Ainsley didn’t feel lonely

In the corridor outside the ward, Manuel sat on a long chair and smoked.

Manuel held the cigarette between his fingers. The burning cigarette butt was about to burn Manuel’s hand, but

Manuel didn’t realize it at all.

Manuel was nervous and had an uneasy feeling in his heart.

If Ainsley didn’t regain her memory, she would probably be about to accept Manuel.

However, the fact was that Ainsley had remembered everything. But Manuel did not want to give up.

The sound of leather shoes stepping on the marble ground sounded crisp. Ainsley’s ward was the innermost room

in this corridor, The footsteps were getting closer and closer to Ainsley’s ward.
