Chapter 207 The Emerald Island

“It’s still too early to gloat. I misjudged you and thought that you were an innocent woman. I never
thought that you would be so scheming,” Kaitlin said self-mockingly.

Kaliyah covered her mouth and began to giggle. She slowly stood up and said, “Kaitlin, see you.”

“You don’t get to leave!” Kaitlin shouted as loud as she could.

Yet Kaliyah had already walked out.

Time passed by. When it was the third day after Ainsley woke up, she was discharged.

She returned to the Easton’s place. Perla made a lot of delicious food for her to recover sooner.

Matteo had been staring at the tablet while sitting at the dining table the entire time. He frowned as if
something serious had happened.

“What’s wrong?” Ainsley asked.

“I’ve noticed a piece of land recently. It’s the Emerald Island. If I can obtain it, it will be very profitable.
Unfortunately, the owner might sell it to anyone.” Matteo’s tone was a little worried.

Ainsley wasn’t familiar with such things, so after listening to his words, she finished eating and went
back to sleep.

The next day, she met Manuel when she had just got off work and left school. She wanted to leave, yet
he stopped her.

“Ainsley!”



“Mr. Gage, what’s the matter? If nothing, I will leave now.” Ainsley turned around and was about to
leave.

“Aisy, can we talk?”

Ainsley felt a chill on her back, and then her back slowly relaxed. She stared at him for a long time, her
eyes exceptionally crystal clear. There was nothing but inquiry in her eyes.

“Can I ask you a few questions?” Ainsley parted her thin lips slightly.

Manuel looked into her eyes and found it impossible to say no to her. He paused for a long time before
nodding. “Alright.”

“You can’t lie. You have to answer my questions truthfully,” Ainsley added.

Manuel seemed to know what she was going to ask. But he nodded anyway. “Shoot.”

She opened her mouth slowly and said, “What exactly did you hide from me? You know that photo of
me and Serina, don’t you?”

Manuel opened his mouth slightly, but could not say anything.

He then swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva and said, “I can’t say yet.”

“When then?” she asked anxiously.

“Aisy,” he called her name softly.

Ainsley said with a self-deprecating smile, “Not the right time again?”

“I’m sorry.”



Ainsley was slightly dazed. It wasn’t the answer she was expecting, yet she failed to make a sound
because of such a

single word of his.

She opened her mouth several times, but she still couldn’t utter a word.

She looked away. “Forget it. You don’t have to answer if you don’t want to. If you don’t want to tell me, I
won’t ask.”

After a long silence, she suddenly remembered something and said, “Did you plan this long ago?”

“No.”

Ainsley did not know what she was feeling. She had just wanted to get closer to him, but now she was
dejected.

“I see. See you.”

She turned around and was about to leave. Just as she took a step, he tugged at her wrist. She turned
around abruptly,

only to see Manuel shake off her hand in the next second.

“I’m sorry.”

“What?” Ainsley was a little confused.

“I’ll take you to a place.” Manuel looked away, no longer looking at her.

“Where?” Ainsley asked in confusion.



Manuel pulled her to the car and opened the passenger door for her.

“Get in.”

She did not know what Manuel was up to. Yet she still got in the car.

West Street was the most prosperous street in Seattle. It was a very simple and old street, and the
things sold here were all antique. Also, the names of the shops here were very classical.

There were all kinds of shops here, selling clothes, jewelry, and also desserts. They were well-known
for their products of fine quality.

Manuel led Ainsley into a narrow alley with high walls and carved eaves.

The flagstone road was cool, and there were several wild red flowers in the corner.

At the end of the road, Manuel pushed open a small door and entered with Ainsley.

The grass path wound. She was very familiar with this place.

The backyard was well attended, with a sycamore tree on the west end.

They entered a tall building from the backyard, and almost instantly, she knew where it was.

They went to Ink Garden.

Ink Garden was a famous antique shop, and it was even with thousands of years of antiques.

Because of the uniqueness of the antiques, all of the things in the shop were imitations, which were the
private collections of major collectors. Those displayed were the things the collectors wanted to sell,
and when there were interested buyers, they would contact the collectors.



She was curious about why Manuel had brought her here.

“Why are we here?” she asked softly.

Chapter 207 The Emerald Island

Manuel said in a low voice, “The Wade family has been eyeing Aedan’s land recently.”

“You mean the Emerald Island?” Ainsley’s eyes flickered.

“Yes.”

The Emerald Island was an island close to Seattle. The scenery on the island was beautiful, and it was
surrounded by

the sea. Also, the island had been in the hands of Aedan Callahan, the CEO of Prosper Group.

At first, this piece of land was not popular. Yet recently, the state was drawing up certain national
navigation lines,

and some of them happened to pass by the Emerald Island.

To support the development of tourism in Seattle, the National Travel and Tourism Office released new
subsidy

policies.

If the Emerald Island were to be turned into an island resort, the owner would earn vastly.

Everyone in Seattle had their eyes on this piece of land, and Irene was no exception.



Ainsley looked at Manuel warily and asked in confusion, “What does Ink Garden have anything to do
with the Emerald

Island?”

“Over the past few days, countless people have contacted Aedan, yet few of them got to see him. It will
be Aedan’s

birthday in a few days, which will be a perfect opportunity. He likes collecting antiques most, and Irene
has been

searching for antiques recently,” Manuel said with a smile.

“You want the Easton family to compete with the Wade family?” Ainsley’s expression relaxed.

“Matteo has been looking up information about this piece of land a long time ago,” Manuel added.

“So, you want me to buy the antiques here for Aedan?”

Manuel continued, “Aedan likes all kinds of jade amulets.”

Ainsley scanned the varibus antiques in Ink Garden, hoping to find a jade amulet from them.

The atmosphere was heavy, and a dark cloud blew in the east, obscuring the sun.

Ink Garden was full of more than two dozen carved wood boxes, each of which contained a treasure
inside.

The owner of Ink Garden greeted Manuel personally, “Mr. Gage, welcome. We have a new collection of
antiques in the

store today.”



Ainsley followed behind them and walked to the other treasure room, which was also filled with dozens
of treasure

boxes.

“Is there anything related to jade?” Manuel asked.

The owner smiled and said, “How strange. People have been asking for antiques related to jade these
days. We just

sold a jade statue the other day.”

He then whispered, “However, though we sold a lot of them, not many of the really good ones got sold.
You know that those good ones are priceless. We keep the good stuff on the upper level, and we don’t
show them easily. You are one of the few people who can afford them.”

Ainsley knew that the owner was telling the truth. Few people could afford those truly priceless things,
and therefore the owner didn’t even bother to take those stuff out.

Manuel was different. He was with st*ggering wealth.

“Let’s go take a look,” Manuel said.
