Chapter 540 A Substitute

Aaden looked at Irene with satisfaction. He turned off the phone and looked at Matteo. “Mr. Easton, please move aside.”

“What if I say no?”

“You won’t say no,” Aaden said coldly.

Matteo stared straight into Aaden’s eyes. “Why don’t we take a gamble and see if Daniel will let you go after you hurt Ainsley?”

“It seems that you admit that Mr. Hume cares about Ms. Easton?” Aaden sneered.

“Yes, but what’s the use?” Matteo said expressionlessly.

“Mr. Easton, I think you misunderstood me. My duty is to send Ms. Easton back to the seaside villa. In other words, it doesn’t matter if she is injured or not. Even if she is injured during the rescue, it’s inevitable.” Aaden stopped smiling.

Matteo looked serious. Aaden was right. Matteo and Ainsley were at a disadvantage.

While Matteo and Aaden talked, Irene had already walked behind Aaden with Ainsley. “Aaden, I brought her here.”

There was only sadness and regret in Irene’s heart. As the daughter of the Wade family, she was humble to a subordinate. Irene thought, what a pity! I was just one step away from killing Ainsley. Unfortunately, there was an accident.

In order to let Matteo see his determination, Aaden took the knife from Irene’s hand and placed it on Ainsley’s neck in the same way. Aaden looked at Matteo coldly. ’Move aside, Mr. Easton.”

Matteo clenched his fists, but there was nothing he could do. Aaden was not Irene.

Matteo had heard Manuel mention what Aaden had done. Perhaps after that couple shattered Aaden’s trust in them, Aaden became an extremely ruthless person.

The bodyguards around Matteo didn’t know whether to stop them or avoid them, so they all looked at Matteo.

Matteo gritted his teeth and said, Retreat.”

The bodyguards dispersed and made way for Aaden.

Irene followed Aaden and walked out nervously. She was afraid that Matteo would not let her go.

Matteo watched helplessly as Ainsley left. He did not know what to do. His phone rang. It was Manuel calling.

“Where is Ainsley?

“She was taken away by Aaden?”

Manuel suppressed the anger in his heart and asked in disbelief, “You let her be taken away just like that?”

Matteo restrained his emotions. “There’s no other way. Even if you had been here, you would have done the same. He placed the knife on Ainsley’s neck. Do you dare to risk her life?” Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

Manuel didn’t say anything else. Of course, he didn’t dare to risk Ainsley’s life, but he couldn’t accept the fact. After making so much effort, the Ainsley he saw in the city was fake, and the real Ainsley was

sent back to Daniel.

The phone was hung up by Matteo. Manuel could only urge the driver to accelerate, hoping to see Ainsley again.

In Seattle, Aaden put the knife against Ainsley’s neck and took her into a car. He said coldly to Irene, “Drive the car.”

Irene frowned slightly, but she quickly got into the driver’s seat.

Aaden dragged Ainsley into the back seat. Matteo looked at the car with a hostile expression. As soon as he got into his car, Matteo heard Aaden’s voice.

“Mr. Easton, we are very familiar with the way back to the villa. We don’t need you to send us back.” Although Aaden had a smile on his face, his eyes were full of disdain.

Matteo held the door handle very hard and could only close the door heavily, watching the car leave.

Two hours later, the two cars stopped in front of the old apartment building at the same time. Manuel got out of the car and saw Matteo sitting on the dusty steps smoking.

Manuel walked over. Matteo handed over a cigarette. “Do you want one?”

Manuel took it, turned on the lighter with a snap, and lit the cigarette.

In the smoke, Cason had yet to get out of the car. Through the car window, Cason saw Manuel and Matteo sitting on the steps in grief. The surroundings were dark, and only the car lights illuminated their figures.

The smoke was blue and hazy in the strong light, looking unreal.

Cason was already sure that Ainsley was not here. This was why Daniel, who had been following them, suddenly disappeared. The person they had been waiting for had been taken to Daniel’s place.

Manuel said softly, ’At the banquet after the forum, everyone knew that Daniel had announced the engagement between Ainsley and him.

Fortunately, that person was fake.’

“It’s obvious.” Matteo took a long puff on his cigarette. “Aisy won’t agree to such a ridiculous thing.”

“Although we know, others don’t know. At least ninety percent of people think that person is the real Ainsley. They believe the proposal and the love between Ainsley and Daniel are true. If Aisy doesn’t come out to refute it, Daniel will not take the initiative to tell the truth. Then he can completely fool most people,’ Manuel said in a deep voice. This was the last thing they wanted to see.

Matteo threw the last cigarette butt straight into the trash can and said, “There is another way.”

“What is it?”

“Although we can’t see Aisy, there is a substitute that can speak on Ainsley’s behalf, right?” Matteo raised his eyebrows.

Manuel suddenly remembered the woman who looked the same as Ainsley. In any case, so many people at the banquet did not know Ainsley.

They could catch that woman and let her pretend to be the real Ainsley and make a statement.

After they looked at each other, Manuel stretched and handed this matter directly to Matteo.

When Manuel wanted to go back, he found that the person who had been following him closely had disappeared. Manuel guessed that Cason had left a long while ago.

Cason returned home in a daze. Kaliyah sat on the sofa and looked at him, thinking that something had happened to him.

“Cason, is anything wrong?” she asked.

Cason had been thinking about the forum and the fake Ainsley, so he did not notice Kaliyah talking to him.

Kaitlin had just returned home from work. Seeing that Cason was home and Kaliyah was worried, Kaitlin immediately asked, “Cason, is Ms. Easton alright?”

Kaliyah looked over sharply. She thought, what does it have to do with Ainsley?

Hearing Ainsley’s name, Cason immediately came back to his senses. His reaction was so obvious that it made Kaliyah feel uncomfortable.

“Ainsley is fine. How did you know about this?” He looked curiously at Kaitlin.

Only a few people knew about this matter. Daniel was afraid that there would be a scandal, so he suppressed all the news.

Kaliyah was confused, but she had seen the news and knew about the engagement between Ainsley and Daniel. Kaliyah pretended to ask casually, “Isn’t Ms. Easton already engaged to Daniel? What could happen to her?” Cason’s expression was frighteningly gloomy. Kaitlin covered her mouth and snickered after touching a nerve.

Cason remembered the news that Manuel had revealed on the way.

After Ainsley left the hospital, she was kidnapped. Everything had been planned, and there were people who cooperated with Daniel.

Cason had thought about whether it was Kaliyah and his mother who had cooperated with Daniel, but it didn’t seem so.
