Starting with A Divorce

Chapter 149 A Childhood Sweetheart

Was it because of the person he picked up from the airport? Who exactly was that

person?

“Aisy, I had something very important that day, so I didn’t get the call,” Manuel explained.

Ainsley smiled lightly and said, “Something important? What was it?”

“A friend returned home.”

“Who is that person? Who are you accompanying?” Ainsley propped herself up and

looked at him in disbelief.

Manuel said, “The two families are family friends. I’m sorry. I didn’t know this would happen. Otherwise, I would have…”

“What? A childhood sweetheart? I got it. You go away.” Ainsley gradually turned

indifferent.

So it was all the same. Cason was, and so was Manuel.

No wonder Matteo kept saying that Manuel wasn’t a good guy and told her not to get close to Manuel. Now it seemed she was the one who was fooled.

Maybe Matteo stopped her because he knew about his childhood sweetheart.

When Cason’s crush came back, she had to pack up and vacate her place. She had thought that Manuel would be different, but she didn’t expect it to be the same.

If he liked someone else, why did he bother her?

After her return, he was indifferent to her and made her sad.

“Aisy, you believe me. I never…” He paused but didn’t know what to continue.

He didn’t even dare to mention Irene’s name in front of Ainsley.

Ainsley smiled miserably and suddenly burst into laughter. Her laughter grew louder and louder until tears slipped down her face before she spoke, “So, you know about my kidnapping? So you’ve been with that childhood sweetheart for the past few days, right?”

Manuel still didn’t say anything. He didn’t know what to say. Could he say that he didn’t want Irene to hurt her?

Even he couldn’t accept it.

Ainsley wiped her tears and pointed at the door. She broke down and yelled, “I know. Mr. Gage, please leave.”
