Starting with A Divorce novel (Ainsley and Cason)
Chapter 145

Chapter 145 Intimidation

The rest of the few people immediately laughed out loud, as if they were laughing at her, "You're so funny. Just let her go crazy as long as she won't die."

Ainsley froze for a moment. These people were vicious. How could she compare them to ordinary people?

She changed her strategy. "Listen to me, she is Ms. Gage, the sister of Mr. Gage. I am Ms. Easton. If you are doing this for money, we can pay you several times more than the person behind you. If it's not about money, then you should let us go. Mr. Gage can do everything that the people behind you can do. Mr. Gage can also try to do whatever you

want."

She said this to try to make them defect. Unfortunately, it didn't work.

The men were still moving according to the established procedure. She could only observe the terrain of the house and try to replace a way to escape.

"You think we're normal hooligans? Cooperate with whoever pays more money? Come on. We have rules. If we are casually bribed, who would dare to pay to work with us in the future?" The leader of the group said disdainfully.

Ainsley made up her mind and said, "If bribing doesn't work, how about intimidation? Are

you not afraid?"

Her eyes were very sharp. The men asked, "Afraid of what?"

"Her brother and my brother are tough people in Seattle. If you dare to hurt us, her brother and my brother will turn Seattle upside down and replace us. You can risk your life, but what about your families?" A few people hesitated.

Most people of their age were married. After they had married and had children, their killing nature would be well hidden.

She continued, "I am not asking for much. Just let Serina go."

The leader was confused and then sobered up. He looked at Ainsley playfully. "Do you think we in this business would not think of a way out for ourselves and our families?" Ainsley stared at him intently. "What's the way out? Going abroad? Or hiding in a remote

village? You guys are ignorant. I said they could replace us. You are not afraid of their retaliation? Manuel is so cool and proud. If something happens to his sister, are you not. afraid?"

The men hesitated. The leader held up his phone without feeling scared. "The boss is

here. I'm not afraid."

The boss?

The man who paid to kidnap them?

Ainsley's eyes narrowed slightly. "So why did you kidnap us?"

The incident with Kaitlin was just over. She shouldn't be stupid to do it again.

But it was possible. After all, Kaitlin wasn't smart.

The leader approached Ainsley. She subconsciously took a few steps back. "What do

you want?"

"You're the prey now, and you're already trapped. Why don't you just stay here and wait quietly? Don't turn around and do anything superfluous to hurt yourself again. Didn't you say that she was sick? For her sake, stay well here and don't cause any trouble."

"I won't run away. I can't escape with so many of you watching me. Serina can't leave with her illness." Ainsley said with a stern look.

"That's good." Those people turned to leave the place. When they were about to lock the door, Ainsley said again, "I hope you can think clearly whether the people behind you are powerful or Manuel is more powerful."

"Are you looking for death? I think you don't want to live anymore!"

"How dare you threaten us, you bitch! If the chief didn't let us do anything, would you be standing here talking now? I'm sure you would have suffered!"

After the words, they all laughed with disgusted looks.

Ainsley clasped her hands to her chest with a cool face, a little afraid.

She was afraid to say those words to anger these people again. But she was now sure that the person behind should not ask to ruin her.

still

Then it was not Kaitlin or Kaliyah. They would only ruin her.

Who else could it be but them?

Inside the Easton Group building, Matteo had used all of his connections to replace Ainsley's whereabouts. But nothing was found.

He knew Irene had returned and had a suspicion in his mind.

Manuel's phone was off. He slammed his desk in anger and connected with the Department of Transportation to watch the city's traffic surveillance and check for suspicious vehicles around the University of Washington.

"Nothing yet?" He asked anxiously.

His people had already seized every second to look at the surveillance until...

"Mr. Easton, we found it!"

Matteo's back straightened and he walked over immediately. The secretary pointed to a van and said, "Mr. Easton, this is it! This van is very strange. It has been waiting at the entrance of the alley since morning. Because it was in the blind spot of the surveillance, it was not captured. The first time it appeared on the nearby highway. The second time it appeared half an hour after Ms. Easton disappeared." Matteo stared at the car. "Check it!"

Inside the restaurant, Cody and Koen had only one cup of coffee.

Irene looked at Manuel. "Manuel, I haven't been back for a long time. Can you walk me

around Seattle?"

She looked at Manuel expectantly and Koen subconsciously glanced at him. "Manuel,

Irene just got back, so you should accompany her."

Manuel then agreed. Irene kept talking, and he only replied perfunctorily.

The feeling of oppression made him almost unable to breathe. "I'm going to the

bathroom."

He left his seat. Irene lifted her glass and took a sip, a chill hiding in her eyes.

In the bathroom, Manuel looked at himself in the mirror. When did he become so

restricted?

He took out his phone. The phone screen went black. Why was it turned off?

He turned the phone on. Dozens of missed calls made him breathe heavily.

Two from Ainsley, one from Matteo, and one from Cason.

Why were Matteo and Cason calling him suddenly?

He squeezed his phone tighter and stared at the missed calls. He called Ainsley back,

but couldn't get through.

His heart skipped a beat. He called Matteo again, but he couldn't get through.

What the hell was going on?

In the abandoned factory, Ainsley patted Serina and reassured her in a warm voice,

"Serina, don't be afraid, I'm here."

"Ainsley, I'm so scared!" She trembled.

Ainsley knew that Serina was trying her best to control her emotions seriously.

"Ah!" Serina screamed.

Ainsley worriedly tried to hold her, but she was quickly wrenched away.

"Help! Ah! Bad men!" The scream rang out.

Serina was having a seizure!

The door was violently kicked open. The iron lock on the door made a sharp clanging

sound.

"Shut up! Why are you screaming?" The comer scolded impatiently.

Ainsley said coldly, "She's having a seizure. Don't yell at her!"

If the person having a seizure suffered stimulation, it would only get worse.

"Hurry up and control her. If you scream again, I'm going to do something."
