Chapter 101 Dance

“Ms. Alvarez, If you and the other two misses continue to talk nonsense, I can only ask you to leave first”

“Let’s go ” Ella quickly walked away with a dark face.

Ainsley kept her head down. She really did not know how she should face Manuel and what he had just said

She stared at the edge of her hem and the tip of her shoes, not knowing what expression to wear

“There’s nearly trouble again. Are you alright?” Manuel asked gently

Seeing that Ainsley did not respond, he called out again. “Aisy?”

“Ah? I’m listening I’m fine,” she said absent–mindedly

Her head was totally in a mess. The more she pondered, the messier her head became.

What did Manuel mean?

“Why are you in a daze? Aisy, can I invite you to dance when the banquet begins?”

Ainsley was still deep in thought If Ella spread those words, would it cause trouble for him?

“Aisy“” Manuel called her again with a louder voice.

“Ah? What’s wrong?”

“Aisy, I’m saying, can I invite you to dance later?”

“Yes” Ainsley quickly replied.

Wait What did she promise?

Her mind was filled with Manuel’s answer just now, and she did not think about what he said.

“There is gossip about you and Ainsley. Mr. Gage, they all say that you like Ainsley…”

“It’s true.”

He spoke as if it was a matter of course, as if the whole world should know it, as if he was saying something extremely common. His answer was simple but firm.

Did Manuel really like her, or was his answer just to get rid of the three women?

“You have been in a daze all this time. Manuel reminded Ainsley.

“Um, I’m… I’m thinking about something.” Ainsley raised her head in confusion.

“What I said just now was true,” Manuel said again.

די

I don’t know what you are talking about.” Ainsley’s face turned red She immediately turned around and left Manuel’s side.

When the banquet began, everyone was gathered in the middle of the hall. The host was talking. Ainsley was standing below, listening quietly.

She noticed that many people were looking in her direction. Some of them even looked into her eyes.

Just as Ainsley was wondering what had happened, she heard the discussion in the crowd.

“You really heard it? How could it be her? How could Mr. Gage like her?”

“You have to believe me. Ms. Alvarez ran out with tears just now. Someone asked her many times. Then she said that.”

“Heavens, if this spreads out, the entire Seattle will be shocked, right? Anyone in Seattle knew that Ainsley was once Cason’s wife.”

Under the spotlight, Manuel walked in front of everyone and greeted them.

Ainsley was a little awkward. Those people didn’t care about her feelings at all when they talked about her. They had no intention of avoiding her.

She laughed at herself. That was right, what they needed to be afraid of was Manuel.

When the dancing music sounded, all the ladies began to dance with their male companions. Manuel walked up to Ainsley and extended his hand

Ainsley put her hand on his palm and followed him into the dancing crowd.

It was a waltz. Her slender waist was held by Manuel. Her hands were put on his shoulders.

Jumping or turning, they were holding hands all the time.

The spotlight shone on his eyes, making his eyes look dazzling. Ainsley felt that she was about to drown in his gaze.

“Aisy, you are quite good at dancing.”

“Mr. Gage, you too.”

“Where is Serina?”

*Just now, she was not feeling well, so I took her upstairs. I wanted to bring her down again when the banquet began, but she fell asleep, so I came down alone. Then, she encountered what had just happened.

“I thought Serina was no longer afraid,” Manuel said worriedly.

“She’s indeed in a more stable situation than before. There might be too many people today. She’s too nervous.” Ainsley knew that Serina was too sensitive now.

Manuel looked at the top of her head, his thick eyelashes waving. “I like the gift very much.”

He was also very happy to see that Ainsley was wearing the bracelet he had given her.

“You have already said it.”

“But I still want to say it again.”

At the end of the dance, when she and Manuel held hands, those women were still staring at her. It felt like she had robbed their husband.

She smiled indifferently. When someone robbed her husband, no one looked at that woman with this kind of gaze. On the contrary, they felt that she was not sensible enough.

In the face of money and power, what was right was not important at all.

After the dance, Ainsley just saw Serina coming downstairs.

“Serina, I am here.” Ainsley waved at Serina.

Serina obediently walked to Ainsley’s side. Roman pushed the cake out. The huge birthday cake with twelve layers was even taller

than Serina.

The lights in the room turned off after three seconds. Only the candle lights on the cake could be seen in the dark. The light yellow lights were flicking.

Everyone was singing a birthday song. Manuel motioned for Ainsley to walk closer.

No one in the dark could notice her movements. He sharply found her among the crowd Ainsley wondered how he did that in the

dark.

Ainsley slowly walked over and saw herself in his eyes.

When she walked to his side, the birthday song had just finished. He looked at Ainsley tenderly and blew out the candle

Koen was at the side. Manuel handed him the first cake and the second one to Ainsley.

Ainsley took the cake embarrassedly and gave it to Serina, then took the third cake.

Everyone was holding the cake in their hands Manuel and Koen said a few words. Then he walked to Ainsley. “I am very happy.”

“I can see.”

Manuel reached out to touch her face, and Ainsley subconsciously dodged backward.

“There’s something.”

“Is it delicious?” Manuel wiped off the cream on her face.

“Yes, it tastes very familiar.” She discovered it when she took her first bite.

“It’s your favorite dessert shop.”

Ainsley was stunned. She had never thought that someone would value her preferences so much.

Ainsley told Cason about the dessert she liked for three years. He never took it into his heart. After they divorced, he brought one to

her. She refused.

However, she didn’t expect that Manuel would remember it after hearing it once. However, she was very curious. “I remember that I clearly said that I didn’t like it anymore. The taste has changed.”

Manuel laughed softly. “It depends. You don’t like what he brought.”

Ainsley felt warm in her heart. “Aren’t you afraid that what you just said will be spread?”

“What did I say?”

“The gossip Ms. Alvarez talked about. You said it was true.”

“So you know I like you.” Manuel suddenly approached her

“I, I don’t know.” Ainsley froze and quickly turned around.

“Then you know now.”

Her face suddenly turned red and she hurriedly took a bite of the cake to cover it up.

Manuel liked her. He admitted it himself.

But how could he fall for her?
