Starting with A Divorce novel (Ainsley and Cason) -
Chapter 381
Chapter 381 Going Downhill
In line at the front desk, Ainsley looked at the seven or eight people holding the same coupons in their hands. They may be traveling in a group.
She listened to the chattering of those people, which was mixed with cursing words.
"It's so luxurious. I didn't expect that our company would be willing to invite us to travel to such a luxurious place. I have never lived in such a good hotel in my life."
"Neither do I, but don't really think that you are here for a vacation. You have a mission here."
"Alright. I remember that."
Ainsley was sensitive. These people talked so loudly as if they weren't afraid that others would hear them.
After more than ten minutes, when the people in front of her finally finished the check-in, Ainsley took the VIP invitation letter and went through the membership formalities. Lying on the king-sized bed, she could see the beach and the sea in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the bedroom.
It was noon, and the sun shone on the floor of the room. It was warm, and she wanted to lie on the ground and bask in the sun.
She glanced out of the window. The women she had just met were stepping on the sand. Although it was late autumn, the sand was hot from the sun.
Ainsley called the front desk and asked them to send her lunch.
For the past two days, Ainsley was absent-minded. She didn't go to the consulting room lately and believed in those people.
However, she always felt that something was going to happen.
She usually worked at school and would only come to the island when she was resting. She would take advantage of the weekend to experience what other shortcomings the hotel had. Misfortunes never come singly.
While Irene was busy with other things, her assistant, Bailey Russell, came to tell her that the red wine supplier who cooperated with the Wade Group had suddenly canceled the cooperation at the *****of paying a high compensation.
"What the *******is going on?" Irene was so angry that she lost her usual elegance.
She took a deep breath and told Bailey to invite the person in charge of the red wine supplier to meet her.
After all, there had never been any problems during the cooperation. Now that they wanted to terminate the cooperation, the supplier had to give her an explanation.
The assistant was also angry. When he thought of the arrogance and rudeness of the supplier on the phone just now, he wanted to give him a hard beating.
But there was no other way. The Wade Group needed their help.
Bailey could only swallow the resentment in his stomach. He went back to his work and made a phone call according to Irene's request.
Sure enough, the person in charge of the red wine did not answer the phone at all and asked his subordinate to deal with Bailey.
Hearing the shameless words of the other side, Bailey resisted the urge to hang up the phone and said with a smile, "How about this, just let your superior answer the call. It will just take one minute, and I promise I won't call you again."
The worker on the other side of the line turned to look at his superior, who shook his head. The worker immediately understood and smiled. He cleared his throat and replied, "Sorry, my senior is too busy to spare even one minute."
Bailey gritted his teeth. In the end, he couldn't hold his anger and snorted coldly, "There will be days when you suffer. The Wade family will not go downhill all the time. It is up to you to decide whether to meet Ms. Wade or not."
After he finished speaking, Bailey hung up the phone.
The person on the other end of the line was stunned when he heard the beeping sound. Then he mocked, "Don't bluff. Everyone knows how to boast. If you have the guts, never come and beg us!" When Orion Garner, the person in charge of the cooperation, heard this, he frowned and walked over to ask, "What did they say?"
His subordinate hurriedly told him about the conversation with embellishment and even raised his fist in indignation. "Sir, don't be afraid. If they dare to cause trouble, we won't let them go." Orion didn't know what he was talking about.
However, Irene was right. Even if he chose not to cooperate with the Wade Group, he didn't need to offend them. It would not be good for him.
Thinking of this, Orion calmed the excited worker and said, "Alright, tell them that I'll meet them at five o'clock in the afternoon at Riverside Cafe."
When she finally saw Orion, Irene asked directly, "Mr. Garner, I won't beat around the bush. The
Wade family has investigated the background of your company before cooperating with you, and I know a little about your character. It is not your style to go back on your word?"
Orion crossed his legs and was not angry when he heard that. He lit a cigarette, held it in his ****, and said lazily, "Before condemning me, you can think about who you have offended. That person gave me more benefits. And I can't offend him. So I have to follow his orders."
Orion blew a cloud of smoke, narrowed his eyes, and said seriously, "I'm a businessman and value benefits. So, Ms. Wade, you don't have to flatter me. I don't buy this."
"Who is the person you're talking about?" Irene asked anxiously.
Orion raised his coffee cup, looking as if it had nothing to do with him. "I can't tell you. Aren't you very powerful? Go investigate yourself."
In fact, Irene already had a guess. She did not dare to think too deeply about it, but there was only this possibility. The only one who could take away the guests from the Wade family now was the Gage family. She held the table and stood up, feeling that she had lost all the strength she had.
Even if she hadn't confirmed it, she thought it was likely to be the case.
She thought that Orion's sudden cancellation of the cooperation with the Wade Group was likely because of Manuel.
It was because of this that Irene didn't know what to do.
The more she cared, the deeper she was hurt.
Irene clutched her chest and bit her lips hard. When she tasted the blood, her eyes were full of bitterness.
She contacted Bailey and rescheduled the latter part of her work.
Irene had left enough time to deal with this, so she did not believe that she would not be able to stop Manuel.
She had to hear Manuel's explanation with her own ears.
Irene never thought that Manuel might not bother to explain. She only thought that perhaps
Manuel had his difficulties. Or perhaps he was forcing her to show weakness.
As for why she showed weakness, Irene didn't think too much of it.
The driver picked Irene up and turned to ask her, "Ms. Wade, where are you going?"
Irene pursed her lips and thought for a moment. Then she reported a series of names. What a joke.
As Manuel's fiancée, she still had to bribe others to know his whereabouts.
Although she did not know if Orion was telling the truth, Irene would not let go of a chance.
It took her about two hours before she arrived at a quiet villa area.
