Chapter 124 Mathew Has Fainted

"You're hurt." His voice was a little low.

The dark clouds exploded in a blinding light with thunders. Ainsley shivered and flung herself into

his arms.

She was most afraid of rainy days and thunder.

Manuel took her in his arms, wrapped one hand around her waist and stroked her hair.

She didn't see the guilt and panic in Manuel's eyes.

Ainsley sniffed his chest, feeling full of security. She thought that Manuel probably felt sorry for not being able to come to her sooner. The next day, the night's rain had evaporated. The sun was bright. It was as if last night's rain did

not exist.

Ainsley opened her eyes but found that the person beside her had already left. She touched the pillow. He should be long gone.

She got dressed and went out of the bedroom. Breakfast was already set on the dining room table, along with a note. "Good morning, I'm off to work."

There was a heart drawn under the words. She laughed. It was drawn by Mr. Gage.

She took a picture of the little note with the heart and posted it. The first person to like it was Serina, who also commented. "Ainsley, I know who drew it!"

Lainey asked under Serina's comment, "Serina! Is it the one I'm wondering about?"

"Lainey, who is the one you are wondering about?"

"It's the one you're wondering about!" Lainey replied again.

Roman also appeared and replied directly to Lainey, "Are you two playing tongue twisters?"

Lainey and Serina replied to him at the same time. "Go away! Cook, do your work!"

Ainsley laughed out loud as she ate her breakfast and watched them bicker.

Until Manuel suddenly replied to Lainey's comment, "It's me."

Serina was thrilled. "Manuel! Go for it! Work on!"

Lainey was also excited. "I knew it was you! Must invite me to Pearl Hotel for dinner and just order

that cook to serve us.

Roman pleads, "Mr. Gage, look, they're all bullying me!"

Ainsley put away her phone, finished her breakfast and went to work.

At the University of Washington, Ainsley was working on her paper, inspired by the latest symposium materials that Mollie had passed on to her.

After her last paper was accepted into Psychological Science, she became a rising psychologist.

This time, the research was more cutting-edge and required a lot of information, so she had to turn

to Mollie.

After writing a part of the paper, three students came to her consulting room.

One of them looked submissive, while the other two were lively and cheerful, chattering all the

time.

The other two girls said, "Ms. Easton, this is my roommate. She has been discouraged by her family from being autistic. Today she received a phone call. They said she would be beaten to death. We saw that she had been dazed and did not talk. Just now in the dormitory, we saw her holding a small knife at her wrist, which was particularly horrible, so we brought her here."

Ainsley took the girl to the office and began to question her carefully.

Most of the psychological problems affected by the family's original factors could be alleviated through the suggestion method.

When she finished guiding the girl out, she unexpectedly heard Manuel's name, which was mentioned by the two female students.

"Mr. Gage is participating in the kind of auction that I will probably never be able to attend!"

"This auction is pretty big. You know, there's a huge red diamond that's very rare!"

"A red diamond? I'm regretting it. My mom asked me this morning if I wanted to go, but I turned it

down."

Hearing their discussion, Ainsley smiled and said to the girl who kept her head down, "Don't care what others think, and remember to cover your ears when you don't want to hear."

The girl didn't say anything, just nodded soberly.

Ainsley got another call from Cason when she got off work. She didn't want to answer it and hung

up.

Ainsley left the office. Serina and Manuel had left first for the auction. The school wasn't far from the apartment anyway, and it wouldn't take her long to walk.

But just as she saw the front door of the apartment, a car pulled up in front of her. The window was lowered. She saw Kaliyah unexpectedly, followed by an anxious shout, "Ms. Easton, Mathew has

fainted!"

Ainsley's pupils flinched. "What?!"

"Get in the car first!"

Without further hesitation, Ainsley immediately got into Kaliyah's car. Perhaps Cason had just been calling her for this, but she didn't take it seriously.

When she got to the hospital, Cason was leaning against the door of the hospital room. The nurses were coming in and out and treating Mathew. Ainsley frowned slightly and walked over. "What's wrong with Mathew?"

Cason's face was haggard, and he said with embarrassment, "I don't know. It was the housekeeper

who called me."

Kaliyah watched as the two talked to each other, clenching her fists but not saying a word. There

were more important things to do.

The nurse came out of the hospital room and told Cason that Mathew was fine and was now awake.

Cason and Ainsley immediately went into the ward, where Mathew lay pale on the bed. Kaliyah followed them into the ward as well..

They crouched by the bed. Kaliyah stood awkwardly watching.

Mathew saw Ainsley and trembled to take Ainsley's hand, which she did not refuse.

"Mathew, how do you feel? Did you not eat properly?" Ainsley saw Mathew frowning and knew that he was preoccupied.

"Did Cason tell you? I know you don't want to see me, and I am ashamed to see you again. Kaitlin did such a **thing!" He sighed.

Ainsley suddenly sensed that maybe Cason had called her over for Kaitlin.

Kaitlin had been admitted to a ***hospital. Cason had already bribed the director of the hospital, but Manuel prevented the director from doing so.

"Mathew, it's Kaitlin who did something wrong. It has nothing to do with you. I know you care about me." Ainsley said in a deep voice.

Mathew patted her hand. "I am ashamed to see you now. I asked Cason to invite you over two days

ago. But you didn't come. I thought you were mad at me too."

Ainsley glanced at Cason. It turned out that those calls were demanded by Mathew.

She smiled lightly, saying, "Mathew, you should not think so much. Now you should recuperate and eat properly."

She inadvertently drew her hand away.

Mathew lamented, "I know I shouldn't force you by using your feelings. I saw the video of Kaitlin in the ***hospital yesterday. I originally wanted to leave her alone and let her learn a lesson. But she kept hitting the wall and lying on the floor begging Cason and me to save her. I'm sorry to say that. I am ashamed to say this to you. I planned to ask you to come just to beg for mercy, but now I don't want to."

Ainsley felt it was complicated. She knew Mathew would say this.
