Starting with A Divorce

Chapter 683 Don’t Be a Pawn

Miles suspended all his work to take care of Serina.

Ainsley was relieved when she saw Serina obediently open her mouth and eat what Miles fed her.

Ainsley went to Laincy’s ward, and Laincy hugged her in tears as soon as she saw Ainsley.

“Aisy, we’re fine.”

Ainsley, tears swirling in her eyes, looked at Laincy with some guilt. “I’m the one who got you into trouble. Those people wanted to stop me, so they started attacking the people I cared about.”

Lainey pinched her arm discontentedly, “Don’t say that.”

“Never punish yourself for someone else’s mistakes. You’re the one who told me this. Have you forgotten about it now?” I.ainey said again.

Ainsley smiled knowingly. That was what she had said to Lainey before.

“Lainey, when I saw you tied up there, it was really hard for me.” Ainsley sighed. “I don’t want this to happen again.”

“He’s not dead? Why is he not dead?” Robyn looked at Mr. Easton in shock. In their plan, Leonard should have died.

Mr. Easton was also surprised. “All the plans are flawless. Logically speaking, he should be killed by Samuel. Alas, he’s still too old. It was we who didn’t think so much about it back then. We should’ve seen it coming. Samuel has become addicted to gambling and lazy over the years. His physical condition was way weaker than those of his same age.”

After hearing that, Robyn had a guess. “Why didn’t they think of what we could think of?”

This statement stunned Mr. Easton. He suddenly fell silent. After thinking for a long time, he looked at Robyn in horror.

“They’re giving orders about everything. What if they already knew about this ending? The order we received from the start was for Samuel to kill Leonard, and it didn’t seem to matter who was finally killed.”

A shocking conjecture arose in Mr. Easton’s mind. After being reminded by him, Robyn also guessed a little, “You mean that the boss originally had the idea that this is how it would end up now?”

“Maybe, and you must not forget that it’s more cruel to make him afraid than to kill him in the matter of becoming a witness.”

Robyn took a deep breath and said hesitantly, “I went to Matteo’s place today with the intention of just stalling for a while, but I didn’t expect that Ainsley received a call from Leonard and that some of my actions might have been seen.”

After saying that, she took a few steps back in horror, for fear that Mr. Easton would hit her.

“Did you expose yourself for going to Daniel’s place?” Mr. Easton asked.

Robyn thought for a while and seemed to be recalling, “No, no one will know unless Daniel tells her.”

“That’s good to hear.” Mr. Easton heaved a sigh of relief.

“If you don’t want to lose your son, try not to do anything abnormal these days, and stay at home. Everything will be over if he finds out,” Mr.

Easton said.

Robyn nodded and tugged at Mr. Easton’s sleeve. “Last time 1 told you not to be a pawn. What exactly do you think?”

“Do you think we can resist?” Mr. Easton said dejectedly.

However, Robyn was not bothered. “We can do anything we want. There are loo many pawns hidden in this huge net. Each pawn is a variable. Although a small one cannot stir up anything, if dozens of pawns are brought together, they can stir up a huge storm.”

Mr. Easton didn’t refute, as if he had acquiesced.

“I think our first step should be to get more people into tills game. Like Ainsley. She is a good bait,” Robyn said seriously.

Mr. Easton, however, felt that it was impossible. “Once she starts playing this game, Matteo will definitely join her. This idiot has been enchanted by that wicked girl, no matter what she does, he must be with her.”

Robyn shook her head. “I think Ainsley is the best. You should know that it’s Manuel behind her. Only when he comes in can we have a chance.”

Mr. Easton made no further objection, which showed his assent.

In the Virginia Mason Hospital, Roman and Ainsley stood at the door of ward.

Roman said, “Some information is encrypted and hasn’t been completely cracked yet, but there is something I find very strange. Through the surveillance at the door of Daniel’s villa, I found a very strange person. It should be Robyn. She entered Daniel’s villa.”

I {earing that, Ainsley hesitated for a moment. She didn’t expect to hear a name she never suspected.

Noticing her surprise, Roman look the tablet and showed her a few screenshots. “I only managed to decipher a little bit of information, and the most important one is the surveillance of the villa. Do you see if this person is Robyn?” Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.

Ainsley stared at the person on the screen with wide eyes. She couldn’t deny that she had seen this face before, and of course, she knew this

person.

It was Robyn. That was for sure.

Until she saw Robyn’s appearance with her own eyes, she still couldn’t accept how Robyn and Daniel were related.

She didn’t even know how to show the surveillance footage to Matteo. After all, Robyn was his biological mother.

“Send these screenshots to my email first. Don’t tell Matteo. It’s terrible for him.” She solemnly instructed.

Roman understood and nodded, “If he asks me, 1 can’t say either?”

“Yes, keep it a secret for now.”

“What are you trying to hide from me?”

The sudden voice made Ainsley shudder. She didn’t expect Matteo to be standing behind her. In a panic, she gestured for Roman with a look.

Roman immediately put the tablet behind him and pressed the lock screen button.

Matteo noticed the abnormalities between the two and noticed Roman’s strange behavior. Immediately, he understood what was going on. “Hand it over.”

He said it in a way that verged on an order.

Roman glanced at Ainsley, “What to do?”

Matteo also looked at Ainsley. “You know my temper.”

Ainsley sighed and nodded at Roman. “Take it out.”

He showed the tablet to Matteo and repeated what he had just said to Ainsley.

Matteo was no less astonished than Ainsley. He stared at the woman on the screen in disbelief. Just like Ainsley, he recognized who the woman was.

His eyes darkened, and he returned the tablet to Roman. “Send me all these screenshots.”

He nodded and sent the screenshots to Ainsley and Matteo.

With a cold face, Matteo said, “Aisy, come with me. Something is happening.”

Confused, Ainsley asked, “Where are we going?”

“The old house.”

Speeding on the highway, even with the speed limit in mind, it took them only 45 minutes to reach their destination, a journey that would normally take an hour.
