Chapter 511 An Uninvited Guest
Ainsley thought of something. 'Wait! There’s a question. Did you tell Roman about Lainey after he was rescued, or did Roman mention it?’
"He mentioned it himself." Manuel also noticed that something was wrong.
Ainsley immediately went to the guest room to call Roman out and asked directly, "How did you know that something happened to Lainey?"
"I heard it from someone else," Roman said, slightly stunned.
"No one knows better than me about what happened that night. Other than the people who were present, almost no one knew about it. You heard it? From whom?" Ainsley asked in detail.
"Roman, tell me the truth." Manuel also stared at Roman, not intending to let Roman off.
Roman looked at the people in front and behind, and finally bent down. "Mr. Gage, I know it is because I saw it with my own eyes. In order to let me cooperate with them, Aaden used all kinds of torture. In the end, there was nothing he could do. He played a video on his tablet and said it was a surprise. Then I saw Lainey on the screen. I screamed desperately, but no one was willing to let her go."
Ainsley rounded her eyes wide. "Even though you saw Lainey like that, you still refused.’
"Yes, I refused." Roman felt guilty.
Ainsley finally figured out the ins and outs of the matter. She pondered for a long time and suddenly raised her head. "You are a coward."
"Yes, I am a coward, but now, I want to take her along with me."
"Where to?" Ainsley asked.
Roman said, "My place. Something happened to her. I can’t let her family know it. I will take good care of her."
"No! I absolutely disagree!" Ainsley closed the door of the living room.
Manuel looked at Roman with a complicated look. He felt that things were not so simple.
"Ms. Easton, you have seen Lainey’s reaction when she saw me in the past few days. She should be with me now," Roman said seriously.
Ainsley declined to comment. Seeing that Lainey was slightly cheered up because of Roman, Ainsley began to waver.
"Ms. Easton, I beg you."
Ainsley sighed a few times. She did not want Lainey to be with a coward.
However, Ainsley had no other choice. Otherwise, Lainey was happy when she stayed with Roman.
"I will not let a coward take her away."
"Ms. Easton, believe me." Roman looked at Ainsley earnestly.
Lainey walked out of the guest room. She quietly walked over and tugged the corner of Roman's clothes.
Ainsley knew that she was unable to stop Lainey. In the end, Ainsley nodded. "I will supervise you.’
Roman entered the guest room, picked Lainey up, and walked out.
"By the way, I came here today to arrange a blind date for Matteo. He is not young anymore. In two years, he will be thirty years old. Every time he comes home, his father and I will urge him, but he seems to not take it to heart. In the past, when he went home, I would introduce him to some rich young ladies, but he looked down on them. I think he doesn't care about it. He is not in a hurry. But his father and I are anxious. Well, I found a few blind dates for him. Aisy, you have good taste. Come and see which one is suitable."
As she spoke, Robyn took out more than a dozen photos from her latest handbag. Ainsley noticed that all those were photos of women.
Robyn spread all the photos on the coffee table and said with a smile, "Come and see which one is better."
Ainsley looked over. The first was the daughter of the Gibson family, and the second was from the Balmain family. Ainsley went further and found that she had seen almost all the girls in the photos at various banquets.
They were elegant, gentle, and beautiful. Moreover, they were all from reputable families in Seattle.
Just as Robyn had said, everyone here was a match for Matteo in social status.
"They all look very good.’
Robyn said proudly, "Although you don't feel anything special about Matteo because you often meet him, he is a famous young talent in Seattle, and he is the chairman of the Easton Group. Every time I attend banquets or hang out with socialites, they all rushed over to introduce girls to him. This time, as soon as I mentioned it, dozens of photos were sent over. I just picked a few good ones."
Ainsley nodded with a smile. She had thought that after Emily's incident, Robyn would scold her at the sight of her. Ainsley had underestimated Robyn's patience.
Ainsley felt that the few minutes she had been looking at the photos were extremely long. She only hoped that Matteo could come back quickly.
Ainsley did not want to fake kindness and deal with Robyn. What was more, after recovering her memories, Ainsley was even more bored of this kind of thing.
However, Ainsley thought that Robyn's purpose for visiting her was not so simple.
Robyn, you are not just here for it, right?"
