Starting with A Divorce by Gloria Warren

Chapter 412 Halloween

Manuel sneered, ’We are hostile to the Wade Group. In order to fight against the Gage Group, they

have to find another alliance. I seem to know who that is."

Irene turned to the Hume Family. So that must be Daniel.

"Are those people sent to protect Ainsley still there?” Manuel asked seriously.

"Don't worry, Mr. Gage. All set. Ever since you came back, Ms. Easton has always been protected by

our people. There won't be any mistakes," Roman said solemnly.

"People are also sent to protect Serina."

Manuel would no longer allow Irene to make a move right under his nose. Since he had already

decided to let rip, he had to make a foolproof plan.

"What about the Gage Group?"

Last time, the termination of the cooperation had already made a portion of the shareholders

dissatisfied.

Now that the Gage Group still kept an adversarial relationship with the Wade Group. Those

shareholders all went against this.

Roman's face looked sinister. He said, "Mr. Gage, it's understandable that those shareholders are

dissatisfied. They just want the money."

Manuel said coldly, "Teach them a lesson."

"OK, Mr. Gage," Roman smiled.

Manuel looked out of the window. The night was approaching. Looking at the flashing neon lights

outside the window, he felt a little strange.

It was at the end of October. It was nearly Halloween. But it was still very cold.

On Halloween, young people would always be very excited. The students began to hold various

activities. So did the students of University of Washington.

Ainsley was busy in the office for a day. When it was time to get off work, she stretched her shoulders

and put down the unfinished documents, planning to go out to relax.

As soon as she opened the door, she stood there in a daze. After she saw the various "ghosts" on

campus, she swallowed because she was a bit frightened.

"Ms. Easton." A shrill voice suddenly came from the side.

Ainsley was shocked by the voice. If not for her strong mental quality, she would make a fool of herself.

'Who ... who are you?’ When Ainsley recovered from her shock, she turned around and found a person

wearing a mask, dressed like a beast.

Ainsley smiled awkwardly, but she could not recognize who this student was.

"I told you that with my skills, Ms. Easton would not be able to recognize me,’ the student turned

around and spoke proudly to his companion.

Only then did Ainsley find that there was another short boy who was also wearing a strange mask.

After Ainsley got rid of her naughty students, she quickly returned to the office, closed the door, and let

out a long sigh.

She looked down at her watch and decided to get off work early.

She didn't know what other tricks those students would play, but she didn't have time for that, so she

wanted to get out of here.

Quickly tidying up the table, Ainsley was going to leave the school, and she took a shortcut.

It was cold outside, and dusk was approaching.

Usually, at this time, the school would be quiet because most of the students were in the study room or

the library.

However, now, it was noisy. Laughing and talking could be heard in every corner of the school.

Feeling the excitement of the students, Ainsley looked up and glanced at the teaching building.

Then she withdrew her eyes and shivered.

With the strange lights, every class looked very weird.

Ainsley's head was down as she walked, but she was still blocked by a few students on the way.

Ainsley put her hands up and said, "I have something to do. You guys go and play. I'm in a hurry to go

back home."

These students were all girls. It was hard for Ainsley to get rid of them.

The girls looked at each other. Then Ainsley's arms were grabbed by two girls.

And another girl ran behind Ainsley and pushed her forward. One of the girls said, "Ms. Easton, the

classmates want to invite you to join us. If you don't go with us, everyone will be disappointed."

"Yes. Ms. Easton, you have to go and see what we are doing."

"Everyone is in the playground, waiting for you."

Ainsley couldn't refuse them. She didn't dare to exert her strength. She was afraid of hurting them. She

could only ask them, "Why don't you invite other teachers?"

"How do you know that we didn't invite other teachers?" The girls seemed to think of something fun and

laughed.

Ainsley had a bad feeling. She looked at the playground again and found that there were several iron

cages with some teachers who were not dressed up inside them.

So these students wanted to "take revenge" today?

Ainsley did not want to go even more.

Ainsley suddenly stopped, and the girls were unable to move her. Then they shouted at the boys in the

distance.

So several big and tall "ghosts" ran overt© catch Ainsley.

Ainsley was helpless. Just then, a man wearing a fox mask suddenly appeared in front of her.

The girls thought that the man also came to help them, so they relaxed their grip on Ainsley.

Unexpectedly, the man in the fox mask directly pulled Ainsley away from their hands and ran in the

opposite direction rapidly.

After running to the school gate, Ainsley panted and said, "Alright, stop."

The man took off the fox mask and showed his handsome face.

"Why are you here?" Ainsley took a few deep breaths and glared at him.

Manuel smiled, "If I didn't save you, you would have been locked in a cage."

’Oh, thank you so much," Ainsley replied expressionlessly.

"Get in the car." Manuel stepped forward and opened the door to the passenger seat.

Ainsley waved her hand and said politely, "No, thanks. I drove to work today."

Manuel closed the door of the car and took out his mobile phone. He showed a photo to Ainsley and

asked, "Is this your car?"

The grey BMW in the photo was indeed her car, but it had been splashed with red paint, and terrifying

characters and charms were written on the car windows.

Ainsley held her forehead and sighed. She didn't know who made this prank, but she felt it was so

boring.

She didn't hesitate anymore. She turned around and got into Manuel's car, but she chose the back

seat.

Just as she got in, before she could put on her seat belt, a girl with dark circles under her eyes wearing

a white bandage appeared under the seat.

Ainsley let out a piercing shriek.

Although she kept calm, she was frightened by what she had seen.

Manuel had already gotten into the car. When he heard this, he turned around and scolded, "Serina,

stop messing around."

Ainsley widened her eyes in disbelief and stuttered, "Serina?"

Seeing that she had been seen through, Serina chuckled and took off the white bandage. She

smoothed her hair, stuck out her tongue mischievously, and said, "Ms. Easton, I'm sorry. I just wanted

to joke with you."

Ainsley patted her own chest and laughed. Then she reached out her finger and pointed at Serina's

forehead. Ainsley said helplessly, "You nearly gave me heart failure!"

Manuel set the location on his navigation app which had a turn-by-turn voice direction. "The destination

is 4 miles away from you. It has chosen the best route for you."
