Starting with A Divorce novel (Ainsley and Cason)
Chapter 550

Chapter 550 I Hope You Keep Your Word

Daniel pulled Ainsley's hand from Manuel's and held her hand firmly.

No one had thought that Ainsley would choose Daniel, including Aaden, who was surrounded by the bodyguards. To his surprise, between Manuel and Daniel, she chose Daniel.

In the car, Ainsley sat in the back row with a sullen expression.

Daniel was overjoyed. Yet such a feeling didn't last long before Ainsley killed the mood.

"You don't think I chose you because I like you, do you?" Ainsley said coldly. "It's only because I hate Manuel. The sight of him gives me a strange feeling that makes me unable to sit still."

She glanced at Daniel and continued, "As for you, I have always hated you, so it doesn't matter whether I hate you or hate you even more."

The smile on Daniel's lips disappeared, and he clenched his fists.

In the other car, Manuel was also sitting in the back row. The driver was driving, and Roman was sitting in the passenger seat, feeling the cold air in the car.

"Mr. Gage, where is Ms. Easton?" Roman asked.

The driver shivered and glanced deeply at Roman, thinking, how come you always manage to say the wrong thing?

Sensing the driver's pitiful gaze, Roman immediately covered his mouth and realized something.

"She went back with Daniel," Manuel said.

Roman widened his eyes in shock. He found it hard to accept such a fact. How could Ainsley go back with Daniel?

Shouldn't she take the opportunity to just leave Daniel?

Yet no matter how shocked he was, it wouldn't change the fact. Manuel's face was gloomy.

There was nothing worse than watching someone one loved getting into someone else's car. Manuel wished he could grab Ainsley's arm and shove her into his car. As expected, in less than half an hour, Matteo called.

"Where's Aisy?"

Manuel was depressed again. "It's my fault. I didn't bring her back. She left with Daniel."

"You didn't hold onto such a rare opportunity? Why would she leave with Daniel?" Matteo was confused.

Manuel continued, "I probably underestimated her dislike of me and overestimated my capabilities."

Manuel told Matteo what had happened, and the latter realized that it was Ainsley's choice.

"Manuel, I know Aisy. This is not something she would do. I'm sure she is onto something," Matteo said.

Hearing his words, Manuel recalled that Ainsley's eyes had been flickering. She probably indeed found something. "Did she want to deal with Daniel in her own way?" Manuel opened his eyes wide.

"It may be the only possibility," Matteo agreed.

After a while, Roman looked at Manuel, wanting to say something.

Manuel noticed his gaze. "Roman, what's wrong?"

"Can I take a day off?"

"You want to see Ms. Salter?" Manuel immediately knew the reason.

Roman nodded. He was worried about Lainey.

Manuel nodded in agreement, but at the same time, he looked at Roman with some concern. "Don't tell her about Ainsley."

When they were in the hospital earlier, Ainsley emphasized it three times.

"I know, Mr. Gage. I have never told her any of this," Roman said solemnly.

Manuel looked away and looked out of the car window. The luxury car had long disappeared.

The McLaren was parked outside the seaside villa. Daniel got out of the car first and forcefully picked up Ainsley. No matter how she struggled, he did not let go.

Being brought back to the room, Ainsley found all the objects in their place, as if the incident had never happened.

Daniel put her on the bed and immediately stood far away.

"Don't worry. I will not touch you again without your consent." To reassure her, he walked further.

Ainsley's hands and feet were tingling, and she was tired and sleepy.

"I hope you keep your word." She closed her eyes slightly.

Then Daniel turned and walked out.

Cason was in the Baldry's home.

He had been absent-minded for the past few days. Whenever he saw Kaliyah, he always recalled what Kaitlin had said. For example, Kaliyah allied with Daniel and Robyn, and Kaliyah went all out on harming Ainsley.

Kaliyah held the baby, walked into the study, and gently said, "Cason, look at the baby. He misses you. You haven't seen him in days."

Over the past few days, Cason went back to the way he used to be. After he came home, he went straight to his study and barely came out.

When Cason saw the baby in her arms, he finally smiled and casually teased the baby. Then he said to her, "Take the baby out. I have some business to attend to."

"Cason, we've only been here for several minutes. Don't you miss him at all?" Kaliyah said, aggrieved.

Cason looked at Kaliyah with exhaustion in his eyes. "Kaliyah, be sensible, OK? I have something to deal with.'

His impatient expression deeply hurt Kaliyah. She thought, I'm well aware that his performance and attitude like this are all because of Ainsley. It is Ainsley again.

Even so, I will never regret harming Ainsley. It's a shame that Daniel hasn't succeeded.

Kaliyah ran out of the study with the baby in her arms, and she happened to bump into Kaitlin, who had just returned home. The latter knew what had happened when she saw Kaliyah's expression, and she smiled mockingly, "How come Cason kicked you out again?"

Kaliyah glared at Kaitlin bitterly, but she had no choice but to pretend to be magnanimous. She said, "Kaitlin, about what happened last time, I know you didn't mean to. You said that in a fit of pique, and I don't blame you. But I hope that you know that we are a family."

Kaliyah sounded so sincere. If Kaitlin had never been in a mental institution, maybe she would have bought it.

Yet Kaitlin had stayed there for a long time after all, and her mind was filled with scenes of Kaliyah making her take the blame. Thinking of that, she couldn't calm down at all.

"Kaliyah, don't forget that you were the one who asked me to take the blame. It is a fact, and it will never go away. I will never forgive you and will never be your family," Kaitlin said mockingly, her shoulders trembling.

Although Kaliyah was angry, she could not utter a word. At the same time, the door was opened. Lindsay came in through the door, gorgeously dressed and covered in jewels, smelling of money.

Lindsay angrily walked over to Kaliyah and faced Kaitlin. "I heard everything you just said. It was my idea to let you take the blame. If you want to hate someone, hate me."

Kaliyah had the baby in her arms, looking like a pitiful victim. Mom, there is something that I have always wanted to ask you."

Kaitlin stopped smiling, and she could no longer suppress her emotions. Lindsay felt that things might get tricky, and she looked at Kaitlin while saying, "What is it?" Lindsay still shielded and protected Kaliyah and the baby behind her. Seeing that, Kaitlin felt bitter.
