Chapter 99 At the Banquet
“It’s none of your business,” Manuel said coldly.
“Mr. Gage, I meant well. I was trying to show you the way,” Kaitlin said awkwardly
“I don’t need your help.” Manuel didn’t stop walking.
Kaitlin looked at his back and stomped her foot angrily. She wouldn’t give up and caught up with
Manuel
“Mr Gage, tomorrow is your birthday. Can you please give me an invitation?” Kaitlin blinked at Manuel
with feigned innocence.
However, Manuel did not even give her a glance and headed toward Psychological Counseling Room
directly.
Kaitlin stared at Manuel’s back in a trance. She knew where he was going It turned out that he had not
come for Serina but for Ainsley.
Kaitlin felt ashamed when she condescended to ask Manuel for the invitation, but he refused her firmly.
It was all because of Ainsley!
If it weren’t for her, there wouldn’t have been so many things. The Baldry family would have been
invited
In Psychological Counseling Room.
Ainsley was sorting out the student files. After inputting the last case into the computer, she stretched
tiredly and leaned against the chair, closing her eyes comfortably.
The afternoon sun was bright but not dazzling. Ainsley felt contented and couldn’t help humming a
tune.
Suddenly, someone placed a pair of hands on her shoulders and slowly massaged her.
Ainsley seemed to know who it was. She smiled, “Serina, hasn’t the class started yet?
“By the way, did Kaitlin go to see you?
“Do you think your brother will like the one I chose yesterday?”
Ainsley asked a few questions in a row, but she got no answer. She felt strange. Suddenly, she smelled
the scent of cedar.
Was it ?
Ainsley quickly opened her eyes and looked back. Manuel was looking at her with a gentle smile.
Why did he suddenly come?
Did Manuel hear everything she said just now?
“Mr. Gage, why are you here? Are you looking for Serina?” Ainsley stuttered, not daring to look Manuel
in the eyes.
Manuel chuckled. “Will I like what you chose?”
“Nothing. You heard it wrong” Ainsley stood up and went to get some water to avoid his gaze.
After she fetched the water, she went back to her desk and saw a piece of black paper, which was the
same as the one Serina gave her.
“Aisy, tomorrow is my birthday. I’d like to invite you to the banquet.”
Ainsley opened the drawer, where there was a black invitation. “Serina has given me one”
Manuel put his invitation next to the one from Serina in the drawer. “One is from Serina, and this one is
from me.”
Ainsley said lightly, “I don’t think you came here only to give me the invitation.”
Manuel shrugged. “Of course not.”
Ainsley looked at him doubtfully. Manuel took out a box of desserts and placed it on the desk. “And
this.”
“Just a box of desserts?”
“Yes, just a box of desserts, Manuel said seriously. He heard that one had to personally invite the most
important person. Was there anything more important than coming to invite her himself?
“Alright, I’ve given you the desserts and invitation I gotta go Aisy, don’t forget about tomorrow’s
banquet.“
Manuel turned around The gentleness on his face was replaced by his usual coldness.
The next day, Ainsley changed into the dress she had bought with Serina yesterday and took the
prepared gift.
Last night, Manuel picked up Serina, who had to go back and prepare for the banquet
Manuel must be very busy today Ainsley went downstairs and found Roman waiting for her
“Ms Easton, you look beautiful today Roman praised. There was no malice in his eyes, only pure
admiration
“Thank you”
“Ms Easton, please get in the car Roman opened the door of the back seat for her like a gentleman
“Do you come to pick me up?” Ainsley asked as she walked.
Roman said after she got in the car, “Mr. Gage asked me to pick you up. He was caught up in a
conversation with his grandfather, so I came ”
Roman closed the car door and got in the driver’s seat.
“Thank you,” Ainsley said with a smile.
The most luxurious hall in Pearl Hotel was reserved by the Gage family for the birthday party.
It was even grander than the last time. Kaitlin’s birthday party was much inferior.
It was Manuel’s birthday, so the big shots came to celebrate. Some of them came for the power of the
Gage family, and some came because of Manuel.
Manuel was not married, and he didn’t have a girlfriend. He was a perfect son–in–law in the eyes of
many dignified families.
Although they had more or less heard of Ainsley, they didn’t care about it and thought it was a rumor,
which was not surprising for such a good man.
Even if Ainsley had an affair with Manuel, no one would care about that since she hadn’t married
Manuel.
Manuel had been entertaining guests, and Serina started to feel wrong after she arrived.
There were too many people, and the faces got on her nerve. The hidden memories surged into her
mind. She was frightened.
Serina tried her best to control herself, but her hands kept trembling.
She kept looking at the door, hoping Ainsley would come early.
When Ainsley appeared, Serina stumbled toward her and held her hand tightly. “Ainsley, I’m scared.”
Ainsley quickly held Serina’s hand. She knew Serina was hyper–sensitive. The crowd frightened her.
“Serina, don’t be afraid. These are your brother’s friends.”
“I know,” Serina said. She wouldn’t let go of Ainsley.
Manuel was talking to someone in the crowd. When he turned his head, he saw Ainsley.
She was wearing a black velvet tight–fitting dress, which flattered her curvy figure. The dress was
backless, and her fair back looked delicate under the black ribbon.
Serina was clinging to Ainsley timidly. Manuel felt that something was wrong and quickly came over.
‘Aisy, you’re beautiful today.”
“Thank you.”
“Is Serina alright?” Manuel looked at Serina with concern.
Ainsley patted Serina’s shoulder. “There are many people here. She’s too nervous. She wants to stay
with me.”
“Thank you for taking care of her. Please go there and have a rest. The banquet hasn’t started yet.”
Manuel pointed at the corner, where there were desserts and drinks.
Ainsley nodded. She had a gift for him in her bag, but it was not convenient to give him now.
She turned to leave with Serina. Manuel stopped her.
“Where’s your gift?”
Ainsley paused for a short while and quickly took a small box out of her bag.
“I hope you will like it.”
“Can I open it now?”
“Yes, of course.”
Manuel opened the box, inside which there were two cufflinks and a tie clip.
The cufflinks were made of tiny diamonds and sapphire. They were small and exquisite. The tie clip
had an ordinary style. It went with
the cufflinks.
“Thank you. I like it very much.” Manuel put the box in his pocket.
Ainsley took Serina aside and brought her some desserts. After that, Serina calmed down a little.
