Chapter 129 The Resort Island
Cason and Kaliyah glared at Kaitlin at the same time, surprisingly she was the one who mentioned
it.
“Aisy, I’ve booked a table at Pearl Hotel. The food here is unappetizing, so let’s go.”
He put his hand out to Ainsley, who took his hand.
“You can’t leave! It’s not done!” Kaitlin shouted.
Seeing that Manuel was leaving, she rushed out.
Manuel and Ainsley looked at her impatiently. “Aren’t you supposed to be in a** hospital right now?”
Kaitlin was angry but she forced a smile.
“Mr. Gage, today is Manuel and Kaliyah’s wedding day. Would you like to stay for dinner.”
As if she was shy, she waved the hair on the side of her face behind her ear, revealing her delicate ear. The glint of the earrings shimmered.
Kaitlin thought, “Mr. Gage, why to be with that ***
Kaitlin waited silently for a reaction. If she could just contact him, she was sure she could make Manuel swoon over her!
But for a long time, Manuel didn’t even give her a look.
“You’re in the way.”
She pulled Ainsley back in anger. “You can’t leave! You tore up Cason’s marriage certificate. I haven’t even settled the score with you yet! No one can prove your innocence.”
Ainsley shook off her hand viciously and threw her to the ground. “Look carefully, it’s Manuel who is standing next to me now! How confident are you to think that I don’t like Mr. Gage and have my heart set on Cason?”
Manuel was in a good mood and smiled, holding Ainsley’s hand even tighter.
The rest people looked at Manuel, and then at Cason. They suddenly felt that what Ainsley said
made a lot of sense.
Cason’s face fell. It was true that he was no match for Manuel, but she shouldn’t have said that in front of so many people.
In the crowd of people who were watching, Zane stood up thoughtfully and said lazily, “I saw it.”
“What?” Ainsley asked.
“I saw Ms. Easton go to the bathroom and not go up to the second floor because I was answering Mollie’s phone.”
Kaliyah didn’t understand. Why did Zane suddenly help Ainsley?
Ainsley looked at Zane meaningfully. She had called Mollie for things about Zane. Mollie had called Zane for the same thing.
“Now that that’s explained, there’s even less reason to stay here.” Manuel dragged Ainsley away.
Before leaving the house, Ainsley leaves a message for Cason. “The marriage certificate should be torn by Kaliyah, just to frame me. The evidence is that one of the torn halves has a scratch, which should be left by her ring.”
They left and Cason looked thoughtfully at Kaliyah.
“Kaliyah, is it true what she said?” Cason asked incredulously.
“No, it’s not!” Kaliyah shook her head.
The wedding ended up being a bride-inspired farce. The Packer family made a fool of themselves in Seattle. Kaitlin suffered a lot too.
On Sunday, Ainsley wanted to stay in bed. But before it was noon, Serina knocked on her door.
“Serina?” she said, still a little confused.
Serina, dressed in casual clothes, looked at Ainsley expectantly. “Ainsley, let’s go to the resort together. Manuel’s friends have opened a new beach resort. I heard that we could catch fish in it! And all kinds of seafood! Let’s go together!”
Looking at her expectant eyes, Ainsley couldn’t bear to refuse. She changed into a casual outfit and
went downstairs.
When she got downstairs, she realized that besides Manuel and Serina, there were also Lainey and
Roman!
“Aisy!”
“Hello Ms. Easton.”
Before she could react, she was pulled by Serina and pushed into Manuel’s car while she came into
Roman’s car.
Manuel, however, wrapped his arms around her even tighter. “I’m your boyfriend.”
The staff had already set up various tools for them, including a grill and a pot.
Small buckets and backpacks were also prepared next to them to fill with seafood.
With her shoes off and her feet on the soft beach, Ainsley felt relaxed as the sand slipped through her fingers. It was fun.
The tide lapped at the backs of her feet as she stared at the beach with her small bucket.
Whenever the tide went out, much of the seafood was left on the shore.
“Pick them up.” Ainsley quickly took a lot of oysters.
Manuel also came to pick them up. Although there was a lot of seafood left, there weren’t many
edible ones.
Lainey, Serina and Roman were on another empty beach picking things up.
“Wow! I found a big conch!”
“Lainey, look at the crab I found!”
Lainey put all the seafood into a small bucket. “What a great harvest this time! We’ll be sure to fill
up the bucket.”
“Roman, do you know how to handle all this seafood?” Lainey tossed a sea oyster into the bucket,
which looked hard to clean.
Roman whistled in triumph. “Of course! I’m a famous chef!”
“Fine, then
you can have all these.” She put the heavy bucket of seafood in Roman’s hand.
Roman carried the weighty bucket. The staff rushed over to help.
They didn’t need to clean these up themselves. There would be someone to handle it.
