You Are Threatening Me
Irene trembled slightly. Of course, She knew. She had used Ainsley’s life in exchange for the
engagement banquet.
For so many days, Irene had been deceiving herself. She felt that Manuel might still like her. He would
never compromise, even for Ainsley. After all, Manuel was so powerful in Seattle.
But now Irene had understood. Manuel had held the engagement banquet with her because he cared
so much about Ainsley.
Their engagement banquet was held based on a deal. It was a trade and had nothing to do with love.
“Aren’t you afraid that I’ll tell her about what happened back then?” Irene became anxious because
Manuel had pushed her too far.
When Manuel heard this, he chuckled. “Have you forgotten about what happened in Ocala?”
Irene felt a chill and froze. “What… What are you talking about? I don’t understand.”
“You don’t understand? If you don’t understand, go home and ask your grandfather. A lot more people
***when he tried to hide the fact! Irene, do you really not know?”
Manuel sneered. Irene must know it.
“Are you threatening me?” Irene’s eyes were filled with fear.
“You said that I’m threatening you. So, you do know about that matter?” Manuel sneered.
“I don’t know what you are talking about. What Ocala? What fact?” Irene’s shoulders. trembled. She
was almost crazy.
“If you really didn’t know it, you wouldn’t have responded like that.” Manuel paused for a while and
continued, “If you can pretend it forever, do it then. But don’t ever hurt the people around me, and don’t
even think about using them to threaten me.
“Before that, I will have a fair competition with you. You always say that the Wade Group is equal to the
Gage Group, don’t you? Well. Let’s see who will lose.”
Manuel turned around to leave. Irene seemed to have just recovered from the shock. She hurriedly
pulled him. “Manuel! Please don’t cancel the engagement banquet. I really care about you. I have
looked forward to it for so long. Ever since we picked the date, I have been imagining it day and night. I
even dream about the engagement banquet. You can’t leave me!”
Irene knew that if Manuel canceled it, she would become the laughingstock of people in
Seattle, and the Wade Group would be affected.
Moreover, when she said that the Wade Group was equal to the Gage Group, it had the Gage Group’s
support.
Manuel had never said so many words to Irene within one day.
Irene was still astonished long after Manuel left. The biggest shock to her was undoubtedly the matter
of Ocala.
Irene thought, the factory was destroyed after the explosion. How did he find out about it?
She thought that she had known Manuel’s soft spot, but she did not expect that Manuel had gotten the
goods on the Wade Group.
No! I can’t let him expose it! If the matter of Ocala is exposed, Grandpa will blame me.
I must do something. I can’t let anyone get to know that.
At the Gage’s house.
Irene said, “Koen, I’m here to see you.”
Koen looked at her coldly. The news about Serina had spread on the internet. Naturally,
Koen heard of it too.
Koen snorted coldly, “How dare you come to the Gage’s house?”
Although Koen was close to Irene, she wasn’t his granddaughter. And Serina was the child of the Gage
family.
Irene stood at the entrance of the house and trembled helplessly. “Koen, I would never
harm Serina. I grew up with Serina. I have long regarded her as my little sister. Moreover,
I was about to get engaged to Manuel. There was no reason for me to hurt her. I can explain what I
said to Stella. It wasn’t my intention.”
“So, what was your intention?” Koen said in a low voice.
“I asked Stella to take care of Serina. But she misunderstood.” Irene sounded pitiful. She acted as if it
was really a misunderstanding.
Although Koen was old, he was lucid. He had seen many intrigues.
Serina was ill, so Irene took advantage of it. She would use any means to achieve her goal.
Whether it was in the business world or in daily life, Irene’s schemes and means were effective. Koen
admired such a person.
But she should not have hurt Serina.
Koen leaned on his walking stick and said seriously, “If you are here to talk about Serina, you can go
now. Don’t say that I’m embarrassing the Wade family. Serina is my granddaughter. I love her. If I
remain kind to you after you hurt her, everyone in Seattle will scold me.”
Irene shook her head and waved the bottle in her hand. “Koen, I’m here to deliver a drink.”
Koen looked at the bottle and was surprised.
It wasn’t the most expensive wine, La Romanee-Conti, nor the only Shipwrecked 1907
Heidsieck in the world. It was a bottle of whisky.
It was a bottle of the most ordinary whisky.
When Koen saw it, he knew that he couldn’t keep out of the affair today.
In the end, Koen stepped aside and sighed, “Come in.”
Irene walked into the living room with the whisky and watched Koen sit down.
Irene’s eyes were red. She opened the bottle and filled one glass for Koen. But she didn’t mention the
engagement banquet.
You came here just to deliver the whisky?” Although his tone wasn’t gentle, it was better than just now.
Koen smelled the fragrance of the inexpensive whisky.
It was the smell of cereal, but it also had a flavor of industrial alcohol. Koen did not hesitate and drank it
in one gulp.
Irene filled his glass and said with a broken voice, “Koen, it was my grandpa who asked me to come to
see you. He wanted to come personally to apologize to you. But he is so old, and he is afraid that his
visit would make you embarrassed. So, he let me come here.”
Koen did not show any emotions on the surface, but his heart was full of contempt. Koen thought, if he
was really afraid of embarrassing me, why did he give me a bottle of whisky?
Irene said doubtfully, “Actually, I don’t know why my grandpa let me give you a bottle of whisky. I think
it’s not good enough for you.”
“He actually didn’t tell you why?” Koen asked in confusion.
Irene shook her head. “No. He only asked me to give you a glass of it right after I got here. He said that
even if you don’t want to see me, you won’t make me look bad when you see this bottle of whisky.”
“It’s a long story…”
When Koen was young, he was high-spirited. A war broke out when he had just grown into manhood.
He was injured when a cannon exploded. And it was Brady who took him out of the trench.
The wound on his chest was bleeding. It should be disinfected, or he would ****. But there was no
ethanol for disinfection in the entire village.
Therefore, Brady bought a bottle of whisky with everything he had and took it back.
