Starting with A Divorce
Chapter 651 Burning Bridges
Just as she walked over with the ashes in her arms, the sunlight dimmed, dark clouds obscured the
rays, and thunder rumbled beneath the heavy cloud cover.
Ainsley walked dispiritedly towards a tombstone, the cold stone standing tall, while the man in the
photo on it appeared exceptionally strong and resolute.
She trembled as she reached out to touch the photograph. Her father, a once-famous business tycoon,
was now confined to this small picture after his death.
The culprit hasn’t been found yet; he probably can’t rest in peace even in the afterlife.
The tomb was reopened by Manuel’s bodyguard, and inside the empty coffin, Ainsley placed a picture
frame. It contained a photo of her father and mother together.
Still gazing indifferently at the photo, all emotions remain concealed deep within.
A droplet of rain fell on her head, and soon her hair was dampened by the rain.
Ainsley casually flicked her hair and then placed the ashes into the coffin.
Several bodyguards hurried over and closed the coffin lid.
Afterwards, she watched as Matteo nodded, and he raised the shovel, scooping dirt to cover the coffin.
Behind her, someone held a black umbrella over their head.
Manuel looked at the disheartened Ainsley, his heart filled with pity. As he lowered his gaze, he could
see the trembling eyelashes of Ainsley, adorned with droplets of water. He couldn’t tell if it was rain or
tears.
The rain grew heavier, and the dark clouds churned, as if the sky was proclaiming its presence.
She slowly crouched down and touched that weathered face with her hand, “Dad, do you think I’m
useless?”
After a long silence, Manuel squatted down like her and said softly, “Aisy, seeing you safe and sound in
front of him is his most comforting moment.”
Ainsley glanced back at Manuel, perhaps he had a point.
No matter what she does, her father always supports her.
“Aisy, it doesn’t matter what rank you get in the exam. The most important thing is to be happy. Exams
can be so tiring, let’s go to the amusement park to relax.”
“Don’t cry, don’t cry. Daddy will always support you.”
“It would be great if you could get into the University of Washington. I’d rather you not study abroad; I
would be worried.”
She patted her pant leg, preparing to stand up. However, before she could fully rise, she suddenly felt a
wave of dizziness and then lost consciousness.
When Ainsley woke up again, she found herself in a room filled with the smell of formaldehyde. She
realized that she must be in a hospital, with an IV drip attached to her left hand.
After fainting in the cemetery, she must have been brought straight here.
Not long after, Matteo walked in.
“Awake?”
Ainsley nodded, but didn’t notice Manuel’s figure.
It seemed as if he could read Ainsley’s thoughts, so he explained, “Manuel is dealing with matters
concerning the Packer Group.”
“The Packer Group?’ Ainsley asked, somewhat puzzled.
Matteo nodded sternly, “Don’t think that handing over the ashes means everything is settled. I’ve
already sent someone to guard the cemetery. Until Kaliyah is completely dealt with, there will be
someone watching.”
Ainsley sighed, “What a… hassle.”
Kaliyah was like a malignant tumor. Before, she would constantly pester Cason, complaining that he
didn’t pay enough attention to her. But after their divorce, she became even more clingy, bothering her
day and night.
“Don’t worry, Manuel already has a plan. The deal you made with her didn’t say that Manuel and I cant
deal with her, right?”
For the first time, Ainsley saw extreme disgust in Matteo’s eyes, which showed just how much Kaliyah
was truly annoyed.
’ Matteo, did Manuel say when he’s going to Seattle?” She couldn’t wait any longer.
“Tomorrow, so you need to get better quickly. Thankfully, the doctor said it’s just a cold, and you’ll be
fine with some medicine and an IV drip. Otherwise, I wouldn’t even want you to go,” Matteo grumbled.
Upon being released from prison, Bryan immediately came to the Packer Group, bringing Kaliyah along
with him.
But what they didn’t expect was that in just a short three hours, Manuel had accomplished so much.
An assistant rushed over in a panic, “This is bad, Mr. Packer. Three companies have just terminated
their contracts with us.
There’s already a fourth one…”
The news spread rapidly throughout the entire company, and it was clear that this incident had a much
greater impact than the one involving the Glover family last time.
The assistant’s face turned pale, “Mr. Packer, please take a look at the stock market quickly.”
Bryan immediately opened his computer and saw the stock market trends. He instantly lost all his
strength, thinking. It’s all over, everything is finished!
“What’s wrong? What’s going on?”
“The stock of the Packer Group plummeted dramatically…”
Kaliyah glanced and immediately turned pale. She couldn’t stand steady and collapsed to the ground.
“How could this be?”
At this moment, Bryan unleashed all his anger on Kaliyah. “It’s Ainsley! No, it’s Manuel, you can’t mess
with that woman! Why did you have to provoke her?”
It was only now that he had regained his composure. The reason he had been taken to the police
station was because Kaliyah had stolen Jake’s ashes. And the current state of the Packer Group was
also due to Kaliyah’s theft of the ashes.
Kaliyah never imagined that the harshest accusation would actually come from her own father.
‘Dad, my life has been ruined because of Ainsley. Cant I seek revenge? Don’t worry, we’ll definitely
overcome this challenge.”
Bryan didn’t seem to care. “You make it sound easy, but now the whole of
Seattle is under Manuel’s control. Who would dare to help us? As soon as he shows even a hint of
annoyance with us, their fans in Seattle will immediately treat us as enemies. They’d rather not provoke
us than risk angering Manuel.”
Kaliyah slowly stood up, her eyes filled with hope as she looked at her father. “There’s one more
person who can help us!”
“Who? You’re not talking about Cason, are you? Although he’s your ex- husband, his attitude towards
the Packer family is not much better than Manuel’s,” Bryan said coldly.
Kaliyah shook her head, “No, it’s not him! It’s Daniel. I’ve been allied with him for a long time. He’s the
one who asked me to steal Jake’s ashes.
Otherwise, how could I have suggested Ainsley to be Daniel’s therapist at the prison gate just now?
That’s right! We still have a chance!”
She immediately rummaged through her bag and found the document Ainsley had just signed. Seeing
Ainsley’s name, she finally calmed down.
Afterwards, in front of Bryan, a phone call was made.
It seemed that Daniel had anticipated her call. Taking the initiative, he asked, “Has she signed it?”
The first sentence was about Ainsley. Kaliyah forced a smile and said, “Signed.”
“Then come over to the mansion now and give me the documents.”
After a moment of silence, Kaliyah spoke again, “Mr. Hume, I’ve paid a great price to get this document
for you. Now that the Gage Group is going after the Packer Group, you can’t just stand by and do
nothing!”
Daniel’s tone suddenly changed, “So, you want me to help the Packer Group?”
With hopeful eyes, Bryan looked at Kaliyah, urging her to speak quickly.
“Right! I’m begging you. Besides, I’m doing all this for your sake,” Kaliyah pleaded.
“Out of the blue, why would the Gage Group want to deal with you? What does it have to do with me?”
Daniel burst into wild laughter.
Kaliyah couldn’t believe it, “You… you want to burn the bridge after crossing it? I’d rather tear up the
documents than give them to you!’
