Chapter 84 A Call From the Hospital

“Mom! Don’t say that again. This is not Ainsley’s fault. I saw Manuel at Ainsley’s house. The Gage family must have made a move.” Cason felt uncomfortable.

Manuel was actually at Ainsley’s house?

Kaliyah was shocked. Did it mean Ainsley and Manuel were dating?

“Great. The Gage family is helping that little ***hurt Kaitlin. Kaitlin has suffered so much!” Lindsay snapped.

“Ainsley is disgusted with me now. She won’t listen to me at all.” Cason had no choice.

Kaliyah took the opportunity to say, “We are indeed not as powerful as the Gage family. It is no wonder that Ms. Easton hates us so much. Mr. Gage is a big shot.”

Kaliyah was implying something, and Cason instantly understood what she meant.

Lindsay echoed, “Kaliyah is right. Ainsley is so vain. She took so much money and a house from us, and now she is against us! Since Manuel is willing to stand up for her, if she asks him to release Kaitlin, I bet he will agree. To put it bluntly, Ainsley wants Kaitlin to go to jail. She wants us to have a hard time!”

“Cason, calm down. We will think of a way.”

Coming out of Lindsay’s room, Kaliyah took out the food in the kitchen and showed it to Cason in a fawning manner. “Cason, I made

soup for you. You must be tired. Have a taste.”

Cason smelled the soup and remembered the food Manuel had brought to Ainsley. Cason reached out and pinched the space between his eyebrows. He said tiredly, “You should eat it. I don’t have any appetite.”

“Cason…”

Before Kaliyah could speak, Cason went upstairs without looking back.

She looked at the bowl of soup and found it hard to accept for a moment. She slammed the bowl on the table with a dull thud.

In the apartment, Ainsley and Manuel sat together to eat.

“This soup was specially made by Roman. Now try it.” Manuel poured the soup into a bowl.

Ainsley took it and smelled a faint fragrance. “It smells so good!”

“It’s rose swallow nest soup, his specialty. Moreover, it is his latest research. Pearl Hotel doesn’t even offer this soup yet.”

Ainsley took a sip. It was indeed extraordinary. It was sweet but not greasy, and the fragrance was more than flowery.

“It’s delicious. You should drink it too.”

Half of the soup was still in the thermos.

“Okay!” Manuel reached out and took her spoon. He took a sip using it.

Ainsley froze for a moment. “This is mine…”

“I didn’t realize it,” Manuel said seriously.

“You! You!” Ainsley opened her mouth a few times but did not say anything.

She silently put down the bowl, and the spoon was put back into the bowl by Manuel.

“Hurry up and drink. Roman will be sad if he knows.” Manuel raised an eyebrow..

Ainsley picked up the spoon and stirred the soup with it. She felt a little awkward. She kept telling herself Manuel used her spoon.

While she was in a daze, a new spoon was placed in her hand, and a new bowl was pushed in front of her. It had the other half of the

soup.

“Drink this soup.” Manuel blinked and pulled the bowl in Ainsley’s hand to himself, silently drinking the soup.

Ainsley felt he was a little pitiful. She must be crazy to think that way.

They both fell silent.

A ringtone broke the awkward silence. Manuel put down the spoon. The hospital was calling.

Ainsley looked at him curiously and noticed he was frowning slightly.

“What’s wrong? Is it Serina?”

“Yes, Serina is awake. She has been crying.”

“Then you should hurry over. Oh right, she hasn’t eaten anything. Bring the food to her. Ainsley quickly handed him a thermal

container.

Manuel did not refuse and left with the container.

Before leaving, he looked back a few times worriedly. “Remember to call me if you need anything.”

“Okay, don’t forget to call me when you get to the hospital. I want to know how she is.”

Manuel soon arrived at the hospital. Before he entered the ward, he heard Serina’s ***cry.

The nurse said nervously, “Mr. Gage, I don’t know what happened. After you left, Ms. Gage was still sleeping. She has been crying since she woke up. She cried until her voice was **. She ignored everyone and only said she was afraid.”

“Let me see her.”

Manuel entered the ward worriedly. Serina stopped crying violently when she saw him. Instead, she looked at him pitifully. “Manuel,

Manuel, are you here?” Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

As she spoke, she sniffled, her tears falling non-stop.

“Serina, it’s me.” Manuel lowered his voice.

“Are you here to save me? Manuel!” Her voice trembled in despair.

Manuel froze. He thought of how Serina had been like a broken doll before.

“Yes, I came to save you.”

Serina’s body trembled, and she suddenly threw herself into his arms, still sobbing. “Manuel, where is Ainsley? I want to see Ainsley.”

“Serina, you are sick now. You need to rest in the hospital.”

“No!” Serina screamed. “They are all bad people! They want to kill me! They want to kill us! Take me away!”

She held Mandel’s hand tightly. “Manuel, please, take me away.”

Her face was full of tears, and Manuel could not bear it.

“Okay, I will take you away.”

“Let’s find Ainsley. I want to see Ainsley.”

“Okay, I will take you to her.”

Manuel felt a pain in his heart. He knew why.

Ainsley endured the pain and limped as she cleaned up the dishes. Lainey had brought her a lot of food. It took her a long time to

finish.

It had been an hour since Manuel went to the hospital. Ainsley wanted to call and ask about the situation, but she was afraid he would not be able to answer the call. She could only continue to wait for his call.

Then she heard a knock on the door. This was the fourth time her door was knocked on today.

She limped open the door and saw Manuel supporting Serina standing at the door. “Serina? Why did you bring her here?”

The moment Serina saw Ainsley, her eyes lit up, and she quickly hugged Ainsley. “Ainsley.”

Manuel’s eyes were tired. He entered the door and closed it. He sighed, “Serina was crying in the hospital. She wants to see you.”

He quickly supported Ainsley and helped them to sit on the sofa.

Serina stood up excitedly and looked around Ainsley. She seemed to be checking what injuries Ainsley suffered. Serina’s eyes were full of tears. “Ainsley, Manuel has come to save us!”

She said something Ainsley did not understand, but Ainsley knew the concem in Serina’s eyes was not fake.

Serina hugged Ainsley and cried, “We are saved.”

“Serina, what are you talking about?” Ainsley looked at Serina nervously.
