Starting with A Divorce Chapter 606

Chapter 606 Is It Worth It?

After finishing the meal, Ainsley went upstairs without even glancing at Manuel, who was staring at her eagerly.

The moment Ainsley’s figure disappeared around the comer of the stairs, Manuel’s face showed a hint of melancholy.

With a sigh, Matteo walked over and patted Manuel’s shoulder. “Take it easy,’ he said.

Manuel remained silent and began clearing the dishes, then quietly announced his departure, ’I’ll get going then.”

While both were men, Matteo might not have been able to feel exactly what Manuel was feeling, but he could sympathize with him.

As his gaze rested upon the empty staircase, Manuel’s expression turned increasingly inscrutable.

Ainsley was jolted awake by a nightmare, and her body was drenched in sweat. She could not fall back asleep because the terrifying images from her dream lingered in her mind.

Sitting up slowly, Ainsley took some time to settle her racing heart before getting out of bed. Opening the curtains, she took a casual glance at the night view, only to freeze suddenly.

There was a man standing by his black Land Rover under the streetlight, not budging an inch. The only thing that moved was the flickering light on his fingertips, which made the already desolate atmosphere even more intense.

Ainsley felt a sharp pain in her heart. She then stretched her hand toward the window, trying to outline the figure of the man in the distance.

Suddenly, the man raised his head and locked eyes with Ainsley. Ainsley’s heart froze, and she instinctively ducked behind the curtains.

Seeing her was a pleasant surprise for him, but Manuel’s brow furrowed when he realized she was still awake so late.

He waited until his cigarette was almost burned out before putting it out with his foot.
