Starting with A Divorce

Chapter 656 Behind the Scenes

Grace placed her hand on Manuel’s shoulder, and everyone on the dance floor was surprised that she had chosen Manuel as her dance partner.

“Mr. Gage, I know you care deeply about Ms. Easton. Do you know why I asked you to invite me to dance?” Grace said softly.

Manuel’s eyes were cold as he asked, “Why?”

Grace looked down and laughed softly, ’Because I can tell that Ms. Easton likes you too.”

‘Why do you say that?” Manuel’s cold expression softened slightly.

Grace didn’t immediately respond, but instead moved closer to Manuel. She sneakily glanced at Ainsley.

Ainsley stood beneath the stage, her brow slightly furrowed. Unconsciously, her hand shook the champagne glass twice before she placed it on a nearby table.

’Look,” she said, her eyes signaling Manuel to look at Ainsley.

Manuel followed the gaze and smiled knowingly, ’I knew it all along.’

‘ But I think there must be some misunderstanding between you two, right? It seems a bit awkward when you’re together,” Grace said thoughtfully.

Manuel glanced approvingly, but he hadn’t forgotten the purpose of his visit. ‘However, before you say anything else, I must admit I’m quite curious about you.”

’Towards me?’ Grace raised her eyebrows.

Manuel nodded, “For example, four years ago, you left the entertainment industry at the peak of your career. Was there any hidden reason behind it?” Grace shook her head, ‘Mr. Gage, you’re overthinking it. I just happened to see a charity video one day showing how difficult life is for children in the mountains, and I wanted to do my part, however small it may be.”
