Starting with A Divorce by Gloria Warren

Chapter 132 Confounding Right and Wrong

She switched the lamp in the living room into a faint warm light and held Manuel to the bedroom. She was too weak to hold him up at all.

After getting sweaty on her forehead, she finally gave up. She found the anti–alcoholic drug in the hotel’s medicine cabinet, poured Manuel a glass of warm water, and fed him the anti–alcoholic drug. Then, she covered him with blankets. When she was about to go back to the bedroom, grabbed her by the wrist.

“Don’t go…” Manuel said softly.

Ainsley sat back on the sofa and heard him muttering in a low voice. She put her ear close to hear what he said. “Aisy, Aisy, I’m sorry….

“Sorry?”

“Why did he say sorry again?”

He already said sorry when he was walking with her after dinner this evening. She wondered why he said sorry again.

She leaned close to Manuel’s cheek and looked at his handsome face. He seemed to have experienced something bad and vengeful at the moment. His eyelashes were trembling, and his palm was so hot.

The smell of alcohol permeated the air together with Manuel’s unique smell.

She put her fingers on Manuel’s lips and tapped a few times. “What are you hiding from me?”

She whispered softly. Even though she was asking Manuel, it seemed more like she was asking

herself.

A few minutes passed, the dark clouds occupied the starry sky, and heavy rain fell overwhelmingly.

Under the street lamps outside the floor–to–ceiling windows, it was raining cats and dogs.

The raindrops reflecting light and shadow were like rays of light falling down. She watched all this peacefully. She covered her eyes, and the moment she took them away, she felt it was like a

“Meteor shower.”

She slipped off the sofa, sat on the carpet, and gently leaned against Manuel’s shoulder.

In the middle of the night, after Manuel woke up with a start, he suddenly saw Ainsley who was sleeping

on the ground.

He immediately sat up and held Ainsley up.

“Manuel?” She was in his arms and rubbed her eyes. She was like a cat who had just woken up.

He held Ainsley and walked towards the bedroom. “Why did you sleep in the living room?”

Ainsley put her arms around his neck. “I wanted to bring you to the bedroom, but I couldn’t hold you.

Then, you grabbed my wrist again.”

“It’s my fault.” Manuel gently placed her on the soft bed, and covered her with a quilt.

“No, I want to accompany you too. It’s raining heavily, and those raindrops are like a meteor

shower.” Her eyes were bright, and she looked like a child at this time.

Manuel laughed softly and kissed her on the forehead. “Then next time Aisy sees that, wake me up. You

sleep first, and I’ll take a shower.”

He smelled of alcohol and was afraid that she wouldn’t like it.

Ainsley nodded and closed her sleepy eyes.

When she was sleeping lightly, Manuel came out of the bathroom with his upper body naked. His half–

wet hair was covered with misty water vapor. As soon as he got into bed, Ainsley threw himself into his

arms. “You are so slow.”

“Did I wake you up?” Manuel put his hand on her back.

Ainsley closed her eyes. “No.”

She touched Manuel’s face with her other hand and asked again, “Why do you keep saying sorry?”

Manuel was startled, “I’m afraid Aisy will hate me when I’m drunk.”

He waited for a long time without hearing an answer. Looking down, the person in his arms had closed

her eyes and fallen into a deep sleep.

After returning from the holiday island, Ainsley felt much happier, and she no longer thought about

the wedding scene.

Cason had already married Kaliyah, and she no longer had any relationship with the Baldry family.

She thought like this, but some accidents still happened.

There was one news that went viral. The news that Ainsley seduced her ex–husband at the wedding

became a hot search. Many photos were posted in the news, including one photo of her and Cason

talking alone. There were some photos of the torn marriage certificate and wedding pictures. There were

also a few photos of Ainsley kept getting close to Zane.

On top of that, someone told the media the stories between Ainsley and Mr. Gage, which became the

hottest gossip.

“I really don’t know why Mr. Gage is attracted by this kind of woman. She must have played some

tricks.”

“I agree with this comment. The divorced bride invited her to the wedding regardless of her previous

experience. She even wanted to hook up with her ex–husband and tore up their marriage certificate. She

is really shameless!”

“My God, Mr. Gage! I don’t believe it!”

“That’s true. My friend was at the wedding. Manuel directly showed up and took her away hands in

hands!”

Ainsley put the phone screen down. No wonder some classmates looked at her like that when she came

to school today.

After class, Serina rushed directly into the counseling room.

“Ainsley, I will let my brother find out who made the post immediately!”

“There’s no need to check. There will be no one else except Kaliyah and Kaitlin.” Ainsley said

coldly.

Serina said angrily, “She let Kaitlin off several times, but she still dared to do that! And Ainsley, what should we do about Kaliyah?”

She didn’t want to see Ainsley being scolded like this. Those people were obviously confounding right and wrong. How could they be so shameless?

Ainsley’s phone rang, and it was from Lainey. As soon as she picked it up, Lainey said excitedly, “Ainsley! Cason is a scumbag! And Kaliyah is a bitch. It must be them! Make a post to defend yourself!”

Without even listening to Ainsley’s answer, Lainey hung up the phone. Not long after, an article appeared on the first page. The author was Spring Lake. “Exclusive inside story! It turned out that the mistress was Kaliyah!”

Ainsley clicked on it, and there was a list of what Kaliyah and Cason had done. It showed that Ainsley was the victim.

Serina also saw it. He clicked likes and forwarded the post everywhere.

Some people analyzed the situation rationally and felt that what Lainey said was right, but more people continued to criticize Ainsley.

However, an article by Kaitlin brought this matter to a climax. She criticized Ainsley and Cason for their peaceful divorce. She took away 16 million and several houses and cars. Ainsley was greedy for vanity, took away her ex–husband’s property, and was eager for the Gage family’s money. At her ex–husband’s wedding, stie even wanted to hook up with Zane, a professor who just came back

from Maulus.

This article directly made everyone crazy. Almost the whole network scolded Ainsley, and those mean words were mixed with jealousy.

Ainsley could guess the reaction of netizens. After all, Manuel’s influence in Seattle was huge. Most people felt so jealous of her and scolded her more and more as if Ainsley really tricked Manuel into being with her.

Serina angrily asked many people to speak up for Ainsley, but it was like a stone fell into the sea,

and there was no response.

“Ainsley, what should we do now? That damned Kaitlin really knows how to talk nonsense!” Serina was about to cry anxiously.

Ainsley patted her hand comfortingly. “Don’t worry, it’s useless to worry. I’ll see what else they can

post.”
