Starting with A Divorce novel (Ainsley and Cason) novel Chapter 520

Chapter 520 Attraction or Love

"People smoke when they are troubled. Why am I still upset after I smoke?” Ainsley murmured.

Daniel had imagined what Ainsley would do when she saw him. Daniel thought she might be annoyed, angry, or want to slap him, but he didn't expect Ainsley to talk so calmly as if they were old friends.

"Is it because of the recovery of your memory?" Daniel asked.

Ainsley inhaled a puff of smoke, approached him, and blew a smoke ring in Daniel's face. She smiled, "Irene tells you everything, doesn't she?"

"After all, we are partners." Daniel didn't answer the question.

"Partners? The Wade Group isn't a good choice for cooperation now." Ainsley sneered, "Tell me. Why did you take me here? It can't be that you just want to get close to me. Right?”

"What if I say yes?"

Ainsley lowered her eyes and placed the cigarette between her fingers like Daniel did. "Mr. Hume, do you get infatuated with a woman?"

"You are not me. How do you know that I won't?’

"Just because of the night of Irene's birthday?" She asked.

"Just that meeting is enough." Daniel nodded.

Looking at Ainsley's puzzled face, he explained, "Have you ever heard of it? It only takes 0.3 seconds for one to fall for a stranger."

Ainsley said, "Psychologists say that love at first sight is just because of physical attraction on most occasions. When you meet someone, hormones stimulate adrenaline. Your heart beats faster just because hormones are stimulating it. The truth is that you will get the feeling of 'love' even before you actually see the person."

"So, you think I was just attracted by your appearance?" Daniel looked at her doubtfully.

"Of course."

"I come from Portugal. I've seen too many beauties. I've seen all kinds of women, but I've never had such a strong feeling. You are a psychologist, so you must know those theories are not completely true. Although I fell for you within only 0.3 seconds, that feeling was real. I didn't even have time to get close to see your face clearly. I fell in love with you just because of that feeling. That vague impression is enough for me to connect you with all the beautiful things in the world. Now, do you still think I was just attracted by your appearance?" Daniel stared at her as if trying to see through Ainsley.

Ainsley shook her head. "What I said is true most of the time. Of course, there are exceptions. Mr. Hume, it seems that your case is the latter?"

"Yes." Daniel nodded firmly.

Ainsley's face sank. "So, what do you want to do?’

Daniel tried to remain gentle. ’Stay here. Stay with me. You can't go back to the Easton's home, and Manuel is reliable."

Ainsley threw the cigarette on the ground and trod on it. She said mockingly, "You mean you are reliable?’

Daniel was surprised by her question, but he was full of confidence. "Ainsley, at least no one will disturb you if you stay with me. And I will respect your decisions. We can start from being friends."

"I thought that you would be bossy, considering your character," Ainsley said in surprise.

"I am always gentle to people I really like. Moreover, only despicable men will be hard on women. I prefer to win your heart with my sincerity," Daniel smiled.

Ainsley's expression changed again. She stared at Daniel. "You just said that I couldn't go back to the Easton's home. How did you know? Have you been working with Mrs. Easton?"

Daniel smiled but did not speak. However, Ainsley could tell something from his expression.

"I know you don't care. But if you do too many bad things, you will have a miserable death. Just wait and see. Although I learned science, sometimes I believe in these things too. I wish you a miserable death. What do you think?" Ainsley smiled.

"It's fine. In fact, even if you curse me, I can still live well. I won't worry about my death before it comes," Daniel said in a deep voice.

Ainsley stared at him and said fiercely, "We will definitely catch those people in the club. Nobody can get away with it. I will find the people who were sent to harm Lainey and those behind the crime."

Daniel smiled faintly, "Alright, I'll be waiting. You are not referring to Matteo and Manuel, are you?"

He paused for a moment and continued, "However, Manuel will soon be finished. And the Gage Group will be mine."

"You're really cocky."

"When the time comes, you will know whether I am cocky or confident.

Ainsley, you should have hated him. Why do you believe that he won't be defeated by me?" Daniel asked in confusion.

Ainsley said seriously, "I do hate him, but I hate you more."

"The Easton family is difficult to deal with, but it's not as powerful as the Gage family. Do you really think I will be afraid of Matteo? Even if you find those people, they won't tell you anything," he said confidently.

Ainsley laughed but didn't say anything. Only dead people would keep secrets forever. Alive people would be concerned about those that were important to them.

As long as Matteo can catch those people, we can make them speak.

"Whatever. I believe Matteo will be able to make them speak. Daniel, everything leaves a trace," Ainsley said coldly.
