Chapter 209 Give It a Go
Manuel leaned against the back of the sofa, raised the glass, and took a sip. The white moonlight
shone on his face,
while he was as silent and lifeless as a statue.
Finally, at two o’clock in the morning, they stopped drinking.
Manuel helped Roman up and sent him to the guest room. After putting Roman down on the bed, he
vaguely heard.
that Roman was murmuring something. “What is it?”
Manuel leaned over, and only then did he hear what Roman was muttering.
“Lainey… How can you be so irresponsible…”
Manuel smiled and realized that Lainey was the chief culprit of Roman’s abnormality.
Manuel took out his phone and recorded Roman’s muttering.
In two days, it would be the birthday of Aedan, the CEO of Prosper Group. To give back to the
community, Aedan. decided to hold his birthday party in the form of a charity auction, where attendees
were asked to provide a piece of their own collection and could bid on it, with the proceeds going
directly to the charity.
There was no doubt that this grand auction would be an unprecedented and lively scene in the entire
Seattle. After all, the popular Emerald Island was now in Aedan’s hands, and he just happened to want
to sell it.
Ainsley and Lainey agreed to buy couture dresses together. As soon as they met, Ainsley noticed that
something was
wrong with Lainey.
Ainsley teased, “You were always in high spirits when we went shopping together. What happened
today?”
Lainey pouted. “Nothing…”
Ainsley pretended that she didn’t care and said, “Alright then. If so, don’t come to me when you can’t
hold it in
anymore.”
Lainey widened her eyes and held Ainsley’s arm. “You! How can you be this cruel to me?”
Lainey pretended to s*b, deliberately raised her hand to wipe the fake tears, looked around, pulled
Ainsley to a corner where no one else was around, and said, “I had a one-night stand with someone.”
“Who?” Ainsley looked at Lainey in shock.
“That… d*mn chef,” Lainey said with embarrassment.
“Roman? You two? How could it be?” Ainsley asked doubtfully.
Lainey blushed and stammered, “We were drunk at the club that day. We were both drunk.”
Lainey told Ainsley everything that happened that day. After listening to the ins and outs of the matter,
Ainsley said, “And then you fled? Then last night, Roman came to you and blamed you for being
responsible and ran away?”
Ainsley thought, shouldn’t Lainey be the one who blamed him?
Yet it’s true that Lainey was the one who fled.
Ainsley pulled a wry face. “Why did you run away?”
“I was so scared back then. I didn’t bother to care about anything else. I just wanted to leave.”
Lainey would still run away from Roman even now.

Ainsley suddenly thought of the recording that Manuel had sent her last night she tentatively asked
Lainey, Then how do you feel about him now?”
“I don’t know. Both he and I had too much to drink that day, so I couldn’t say who was right and who
wasn’t Maybe he feels regretful, too. I might as well forget it ever happened,” Lainey smiled bitterly
If Ainsley hadn’t heard yesterday’s recording, she might have supported Lainey’s decision Yet Ainsley
now was well aware that Roman might have inadvertently fallen in love with Lainey as well. It was just
that he hadn’t realized it yet
“You really think so?” Lainey wanted to speak, but she swallowed her words and opened her mouth
several times In the end, she said nothing. She just shook her head helplessly.
Ainsley could see the loneliness in Lainey’s eyes. She suddenly grabbed Lainey’s hand and said
seriously, “Let’s give it
a go.”
“Give it a go? What are you talking about?”
Ainsley’s voice was delicate, which made people believe her somehow. “Let’s see if he likes you.”
“What?”
Ainsley took out her phone and played the recording to Lainey. “He was drunk and kept calling your
name. Manuel sent it to me. Why don’t we sense him out? Provided that you have any interest in him.”
Lainey’s face turned slightly red. She smiled and said, “Alright then.”
In the evening, Ainsley dialed Roman’s number. “Roman, I’d like to invite two friends to Pearl Hotel for
dinner tonight. Do you have time?”
After all, such a big drama couldn’t continue without the hero.
At 7:30 in the evening, Ainsley and Lainey arrived at Pearl Hotel on time. Roman was stunned when he
saw Lainey He did not expect that the friends Ainsley mentioned included her.
He had just placed the menu in front of Ainsley when he saw Lainey waving in the direction of the door,
looking very
happy.
“Here!” Ainsley smiled. Then she explained, “This is Lainey’s boyfriend.”
Roman’s hand that was holding the menu shook, and the smile on his face immediately disappeared.
He gawked at the man who came over and couldn’t help but notice that Lainey placed her hands on the
man’s arm. Lainey and the man
looked like an intimate couple.
“Boyfriend? Is she in a relationship?”
He felt bitter. An unprecedented feeling enveloped him, and he was not even in the mood to cook
Ainsley said slowly, “Yes. This is her boyfriend. Cute, right? Serve the dishes for us, will you? I told
them I’d treat them to a top cook. Don’t let us down.”
Roman’s hand, which was holding the menu, was slightly pale. He almost gnashed his teeth while
saying, “OK. I
won’t.”
He could not tell what he was feeling besides that he was bitter. The man sat blankly beside Lainey and
was at a loss, not knowing where to look.
Ainsley almost laughed out loud. She asked Lainey in a low voice, “Where is he from? He looks so
rigid.”
Lainey said with embarrassment, “He is just an extra I found.”
As they spoke, Roman served the dishes, deliberately placed a bowl of soup in front of the man, stared
at the man, and said, “Here’s a special soup for the gentleman. Eat it while it’s hot.”
The man took it with both hands and thanked Roman repeatedly.
After Roman returned to the kitchen, Ainsley quickly continued, “Show some intimacy! Lainey, feed him
your desserts
later.”
“What?” Lainey quickly picked up her plate, picked up a piece of cake, and brought it to the man’s
mouth.
For the first time, Lainey felt that her movements were so stiff. She thought, I was never so reserved
before. Why am I
so stiff today?
The man took a sip of the soup that Roman had served him and almost spat it out.
The soup was so salty that he felt as if he was eating salt directly.
“What’s wrong?” Lainey asked.
The man shook his head. “Nothing.”
Roman continued to serve the dishes. Looking at the bowl in front of the man, he said with
dissatisfaction, “Eat it up. I made it for you especially.”
The man was flustered. He glanced at Ainsley and nodded quickly.
Ainsley and Lainey did not know what the man was thinking. He figured that since he was an extra, he
should do his job and be worthy of his pay. He lifted the bowl and was ready to eat the soup with strong
determination.
