Chapter 535 The Lost Watch
Manuel had the urge to rush up, but he felt that Ainsley’s dance was unspeakably strange.
The banquet finally came to an end. Daniel took off his coat and draped it over Ainsley. He said softly, ’The car will be here in a second.”
Ainsley nodded coldly and wrapped the coat around her.
Manuel stood in situ and looked at Ainsley. The way her emaciated body was draped in that man’s coat was a sight to behold.
He rushed over abruptly, grabbed Ainsley’s wrist, and ran.
All of this happened so suddenly that before Cason, who had been standing beside Manuel, could react, Manuel had already pulled Ainsley and ran far away.
Daniel angrily scolded, ’ Manuel, stop the fuck right there!”
Daniel desperately chased after them, followed by a few reporters.
Ignoring everything, Manuel held Ainsley’s hand and ran in the direction of the parking lot.
Ainsley finally came back to her senses after they ran for a long distance. She shook off Manuel’s hand at once. “What the heck do you want?”
He hastily wanted to grab her hand again. “I will take you away. Ainsley, I’m sure you need me to take you away.”
Ainsley forcefully shook off Manuel’s hand and said angrily, “Not at all! What the fuck do you want?”
Manuel was stunned. He did not expect Ainsley to react like this. “Matteo is very worried about you. He has been looking for you all day.”
She shrugged indifferently. “Then feel free to tell him where I am now. Also, you might as well tell him what you saw. I was not threatened. I did everything of my own accord.’
Meanwhile, his phone rang. It was that unique beeping sound.
Manuel was shocked. His phone would only beep like this when it was a notification from Ainsley’s watch. He had set it since the day Ainsley disappeared.
Didn’t Ainsley say that the watch had been thrown away at the banquet?
He immediately turned on his phone, activated the GPS, and saw a location that surprised him. The watch was in the west district of Seattle.
Why was the watch located there?
He almost subconsciously sent the location to Matteo, and then forcefully took Ainsley to continue walking until they walked to the front of the car. Then he let her in and drove the car away.
When he drove the car out, he saw Daniel’s angry face.
Matteo was in Seattle. When he was at a loss, he received the location sent by Manuel. Also, Manuel texted him: “Ais/s watch location has changed. This is where it is located now.”
Without any hesitation, Matteo immediately ran to the watch’s location, with dozens of bodyguards behind him.
The location was in an abandoned building in the west district of Seattle. Half an hour had passed by the time they arrived.
When Matteo set foot on the first floor, he noticed that no one had lived in the building for a long time and that the facilities had retained the atmosphere of the 1990s. The bodyguards immediately searched the ground floor and found nothing.
He had brought dozens of bodyguards with him, yet it was still not enough since the building was up to three floors with dozens of rooms.
The watch’s location was accurate to feet, so he looked at the phone screen while slowly approaching the location. The wooden staircase creaked like an old man’s body falling apart as he stepped up the stairs to the second floor.
Turning left into the second room, he looked inside the room and was stunned on the spot.
There was nothing but a watch on the ground. Almost subconsciously, he knew that it was the watch that Manuel had given to Ainsley with the GPS function. In other words, Ainsley was here before, and just half an hour ago, she pressed the button to send out the watch’s position.
His eyes were full of doubts. Didn’t Manuel say that Ainsley went to the forum?
In a remote room on the building’s third floor, Irene nervously closed the door, looked at Ainsley fiercely, and slapped Ainsley hard. “Fuck! You surprised me. I didn’t see this coming. Why didn’t you press the button when we kidnapped you? If so, such a thing wouldn’t have happened.”
She grabbed Ainsley’s hair in disgust and forced Ainsley to raise her head. “You’d better shut up, or I’ll kill you right now.” Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
There was blood on the corner of Ainsley’s mouth, and she smiled brightly.
“Then kill me.”
There were many footsteps outside the door. Irene did not know how many people Matteo had brought with him. She simply felt that those footsteps were freaking her out.
“Why did you do this?”
Ainsley thought, why did you kidnap me? Why did you bring me here?
She was confused, and there was nothing she could do.
Irene had already blocked Ainsley’s mouth with vigilance, not letting Ainsley make a sound.
Ainsley’s hand was tied up, and she could not make a sound. Her mind was filled with the scene of her being taken away two days ago.
Two days ago, Daniel proposed to her.
In the afternoon, when Daniel was not at home, Irene took the opportunity and found a random excuse to get rid of Aaden, bringing a tightly wrapped person into the seaside villa.
Seeing the woman, Ainsley was full of doubts.
’’Why are you here?”
Ainsley was still drinking tea leisurely, not even raising her head.
Irene was not surprised, and she was not angered by Ainsley’s attitude. She pushed the person beside her in front of Ainsley. “Guess who she is.”
Only then did Ainsley look over, but the person was wearing a hat, sunglasses, and a mask, revealing no features at all.
“If you have something to say, just say it,” Ainsley said impatiently.
There was no need to say anything. Irene winked at the woman, and the latter began to take everything off. When she took off her mask at last, even Ainsley was stunned.
Ainsley slowly stood up and walked in front of the woman. It was like looking in a mirror. The woman in front of her was identical to her.
Ainsley couldn’t help but think of the woman on the screen at the Christmas banquet. It seemed that the woman standing in front of her was the one on the screen.
Irene raised her hand to touch the woman’s face and said tenderly, “Do you know how hard I worked to find her? See? She is just like you. Just a few months ago, she was slightly different from you, but with certain adjustments, she is now simply your duplicate.”
Irene put down her hand and looked at the woman. “Georgia, say something.”
Georgia Dawson revealed a smile and said softly, “Ms. Easton, hello.”
Georgia’s face was the same as Ainsley, and even their voices were identical. Though Georgia’s voice sounded a bit pretentious, no one could tell.
Ainsley frowned deeply. “Even though she looks like me and sounds like me, she’s not me.’
Irene chuckled and pulled Georgia to the front, pulling off the clothes on Georgia’s left shoulder. “Look at it. She almost won once. It was this birthmark that doomed her. Now that she has it, do you think she will replace you or not?”
Ainsley did not answer Irene. Instead, she looked at Georgia. “Is it worth it? You’ve lost everything that once was exclusive to you, and now even your voice is someone else’s. Along with the extra birthmark, you’re a completely different person now. Is it really worth it to be someone else’s duplicate?”
Ainsley didn’t get it. Was it really worth all this just to be like her?
