Chapter 297 Coffee Room
“Serina, don’t be afraid. I am here.”
Ainsley reached out and covered Serina’s eyes. She led Serina to the bedside and had her lie on the bed.
“Relax…”
As Ainsley gently comforted her, Serina finally fell asleep. After a few minutes, Serina woke up again. This time, she finally regained her senses.
After she calmed down, Serina looked at Manuel and Koen.
“Koen, grandpa, Ainsley, why are you all here? Irene, you are here too.” Serina looked at the people in the room in surprise, as if she did not remember what had just happened.
Koen looked deeply at Ainsley. He had found many psychologists for Serina, so he naturally knew what Serina was like when she faced other psychologists. Serina was very different in front of Ainsley.
Serina trusted Ainsley for no reason, and she would even calm down at first glance at Ainsley.
Ainsley said softly, “I came to see you.”
“Ainsley.” Serina looked at Irene nervously.
Of course, Serina knew about the relationship between Ainsley, Irene, and Manuel. Serina didn’t know why they would appear at her home together.
Could it be that…
Serina looked at Manuel, who seemed to have mixed feelings.
Koen turned to look at Irene gently. “Irene, you’re here. Let’s go have a cup of coffee together.”
Koen looked closely at Ainsley and nodded at her.
Serina followed Ainsley and walked into the coffee room. It looked ancient and was probably specially built
by Koen.
The housekeeper came in with a wooden box. “Ms. Wade, Ms. Easton, you’re really lucky. This is the coffee beans Mr. Gage treasured, and only this box is left.”
“Let me do it. Mr. Gage loves to drink the coffee I make.”
“Good girl.” Koen smiled at Irene dotingly.
The moment the wooden box was opened, a faint scent of coffee beans wafted out. Ainsley felt that she

smelled it somewhere before.
Irene was born in the purple. She must have learned how to make coffee before. Irene looked elegant
with
every move, and she seemed to be skillful at making coffee.
After it was done, the scent of the coffee filled the entire room.
Then Irene poured the coffee into those cups, and the first cup was naturally given to Koen.
When she handed it to Ainsley, Irene said meaningfully, “Ms. Easton, have a taste. I never make coffee
for
outsiders”
Irene meant that she and the Gage family were a family, and Ainsley was the outsider.
Serina frowned slightly and said clearly, “Irene, I have never drunk it either.”
Irene’s face suddenly turned gloomy. Then she calmed down and said, “Serina, if you want to drink, there
will
be plenty of opportunities later.”
Ainsley’s face turned a little sullen, and Serina put down the cup in her hand.
Unexpectedly, Koen did not say anything this time.
“Manuel, my grandfather wants to see you. When will you come to my house?” Irene said gently.
“A period later,” Manuel replied slowly.
In the coffee room, only Irene kept talking.
Ainsley raised the cup and took a sip. The coffee Irene made was really good.
Koen glanced at Ainsley and said, “Ms. Easton, come with me to the study.”
In the study.
Koen looked at Ainsley and felt that she was extraordinary and somewhat similar to Manuel.
Ainsley wasn’t scared in front of Koen at all. He said leisurely, “Serina seems to be very dependent on
you,
Ms. Easton.”
“Mr. Gage, what do you want to say to me?” Ainsley said calmly.
“You are very smart. Serina relies on you and trusts you, but you can’t suspend my disbelief in you. Your
story has spread out on the Internet recently. Everyone in Seattle knows that you have something to do
with
Nancy’s suicide,” Koen said indifferently.
Ainsley smiled faintly. “Mr. Gage, I thought that you would not ask such a ****question. Nancy’s matter is
clear to all. If what I said and did is wrong, other psychologists should not let go of me. It is fine that
those
onlookers don’t know the truth.”
Koen did not expect Ainsley to say that. He looked at Ainsley curiously.
“Ms. Easton, you are cool, but you can’t be on par with Manuel just because of that.”
Ainsley shook her head. ‘Mr. Gage, I have never thought of being together with Manuel. Besides, isn’t
the person you choose Irene? I have nothing to do with Mr. Manuel. You are the one who asked me here
today.”
Koen laughed. “The Easton family and the Wade family are definitely not on the same level. I have seen
Irene grow up. I know very well who she is. However, I have never participated in Manuel’s own affairs.”
2/3
Ainsley was stunned for a moment. She did not understand what Koen meant by that.
Ainsley thought that Koen had asked her to the study because he wanted to give her money and asked
her to leave Manuel, or because he wanted her to know the distance between them.

Why would Koen say that?
“I… I don’t understand.”
“You know whether you understand it or not, Ms. Easton. If Irene is really engaged to Manuel, I hope that you can sincerely wish them well.” Koen changed the topic.
“I will.” Ainsley was stunned for a while before she recovered from the shock.
“Mr. Gage, what about Serina?” Ainsley asked as she thought of Serina’s condition just now.
“It’s useless to find so many psychologists for her these past few days. Perhaps you are the most suitable
person to treat her.”
Was this what Koen meant?
Ainsley nodded. “I will take good care of Serina.”
When she left the Gage’s house, Serina followed Ainsley with a smile. Serina did not expect Koen to let her
follow Ainsley.
Meanwhile, Irene stood next to Manuel with anger.
When Koen said that he wanted Ainsley to treat Serina, Irene tried to stop him, but it was useless.
Koen seemed to be determined. Irene was looking forward to what Manuel could say, but unfortunately, there
was nothing.
Staring after Ainsley, Manuel seemed to feel Ainsley would leave him forever.
Perhaps soon, Ainsley would find out what Manuel was trying to hide, and he couldn’t stop this.
If Serina stayed with Ainsley, it was like a bomb, and Manuel didn’t know when it would explode.
During this period, Manuel could only live on in fear.
Manuel had done too much wrong. He loved Ainsley, but so what?
Ainsley was indifferent to Manuel, and he thought that he was strong enough, but when he watched her leave farther and farther away…
Manuel could still feel tortured. He didn’t feel comfortable at all.
“Ainsley, I can finally come to you.” Serina smiled brightly.
