Chapter 387

Chapter 387 Theodore Bernard At the University of Washington, Manuel’s face and eyes were cold as he looked at Stella, “What are you doing?”

He asked in a soft voice, but Stella felt that it was like the voice of a demon.

At that moment, she couldn’t help but want to let go of Serina’s clothes. Serina fell with her arm hitting the ground, and she cried out in pain.

Serina seemed to be stunned and only screamed. She didn’t recognize the person in front of her.

With great difficulty, Stella mustered up the courage to speak to Irene. Trembling, she said, “We, we were just... Serina was meddling in our business.

We didn’t target her.”

Manuel walked over and pulled Serina over, ignoring her struggling hands. They had made a big lie. Everyone at the University of Washington knew Serina’s identity yet Stella still hurt her. It meant that Stella did it on purpose and had someone backing her up.

“I will remember all of you.”

Manuel suppressed his anger, and his face turned livid.

He held Serina in his arms and took her to the infirmary.

There were small stones everywhere on the campus. Serina had just fallen with her arm hitting the ground.

Her skin was scratched, and there were many small wounds. It was scary to see her blood dripping.

“The injuries are quite severe. They have to be treated in time. Otherwise, you may have tetanus,” the female doctor said.

The doctor came out with the equipment and could not help but look at Manuel a few more times.

“Hold her and stop her from moving. I have to disinfect her,” she pointed at Manuel and said.

Manuel held Serina’s arm with his hand. The doctor took out the disinfectant and opened the bottle. The strong smell of alcohol filled the room.

She found a small cup and filled it with disinfectant. Using a basin to hold the liquid under the cup, she picked up the cup and poured the disinfectant on Serina’s arm.

Serina felt a chill down her spine. The moment the disinfectant touched her wounds, she felt as if thousands of needles had been stabbed into her arm. It was painful and cold.

There were ***and small objects in the wounds on her arm. The doctor took out tweezers and took them away for her.

The intense pain caused her arm to tremble uncontrollably. Fortunately, Manuel was pressing on her arm.

From Manuel’s angle, the first thing he saw was the sweat on Serina’s forehead and her tightly.

knitted brows. It must be painful.

The doctor finished cleaning the wound and washed it with disinfectant a few more times before everything was finished.

“Keep the wounds dry. I’ll get you a few bottles of anti-inflammatory drugs. Take them back and grind them into powder. Wipe the powder on her wounds every day. She just has superficial wounds. If the bandage is stuck to the wounds, come here to change the dressing,” the doctor explained as she bandaged Serina.

Manuel nodded solemnly. He was more worried about Serina’s ***condition.

The scream had stopped, and now, Serina just looked around blankly.

She looked at the doctor, then at Manuel, with her face full of loneliness.

Manuel felt a burst of sadness. How good would it be if she just pretended to be ***?

He would not let go of anyone in the corridor.

He didn’t know how Serina was doing, so he could look for Ainsley.

The Wade Group.

If the resort hotel couldn’t provide good red wine, the customers who were craving wine would cause trouble.

If this news spread, the Wade Group’s reputation would be damaged, and there was a high chance that the stock price would fall.

Irene sat in the office, biting her red lip as she made up her mind.

She would never allow such a situation to occur.

Thinking of this, Irene recalled a classmate of hers.

He should be able to help.

However, what had happened before was still vivid in her mind, and the whole matter was old-fashioned.

frene rejected that guy’s profession, and then, that person wanted to force a relationship with her but was slapped in the face by Irene. After that, they were no longer in contact.

Irene closed her eyes and tried to convince herself to let go of those grudges for the time being.

Therefore, she found a strange and familiar name in the address book, Theodore Bernard.

After struggling for a long time, she pressed the dial button with her hand that had nail art on it.

The time she waited was particularly long. Just when she thought that Theodore would not answer the call, a low male voice suddenly came from the phone. “Is it Irene?”

Irene ignored the strange feeling that surged up in her heart and tried to pretend to be calm as she replied, “Yes.”

“Why are you contacting me?” Theodore seemed to be surprised.

Irene closed her eyes and thought about the red wine. She said gently, “Nothing. I just feel that I haven’t seen you for a long time. I miss the past.”

“Heh.” Theodore was amused. He changed his posture but was still sloppy. “Save it. I know who you are. Just tell me what you want to say. Don’t keep me in suspense. I feel awkward listening to you beating around the bush.”

When Theodore pointed out her purpose, Irene felt ashamed and angry. She had always been the focus of the crowd, and she was always the helper.

Theodore pricked up his ears and listened carefully to the breathing sounds on the phone. After confirming that Irene was still there, he raised his eyebrows and teased, “Ms. Wade, I have an appointment and don’t have time for you. If you don’t speak, I will hang up.”

Irene took a deep breath and said slowly, “I do want to ask you for a favor. Do you have time to meet me?”

After Theodore heard this, his eyes seemed to be filled with desire. He fiddled with the car key and said flatly, “Irene, I didn’t become batter in the past years, but the words you said have always been on my mind. If you want to get something, you have to fight for it yourself, right?”

Irene bit her lower lip hard to suppress the panic in her heart and uttered a single word in the end, Starting with A Divorce novel (Ainsley and Cason)

Chapter 386 Love’s Change of Heart Chapter 872 “Yes.”

Theodore laughed again, and then said straightforwardly, “I’ll send you the time and the place.

Remember to arrive on time.”

A few minutes later after Theodore hung up, Irene received the text about the location and time of the meeting.

She expressionlessly replied with an “OK”.

The assistant knocked on the door and came in with a frown. “Ms. Wade, I just contacted the last red wine supplier on the list. He said he had no stock left.”

Irene did not look at him and just flipped the financial report. “I understand.”

The assistant was confused, but he still forced himself to ask, “Have you thought of a way?”

Only then did Irene look up at him and nod, “Yes, I want to see an old friend in the afternoon. Solve the work that’s within your power in the afternoon by yourself. If you can’t solve some of them, leave them to me.”

The assistant nodded after hearing this, and his back instantly straightened. His eyes were full of admiration for Irene.

Irene arrived half an hour earlier. According to her personality, no one could make her do this.

The meeting place Theodore chose was a restaurant. The head chef was once an imperial chef, so without an appointment, one could not get a seat.

“Irene, you’re here so early. I remember that you would never wait for anyone before.” Theodore arrived at the restaurant on time. As soon as he entered the room, he saw an exquisite and elegant woman sitting on the seat.
