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.
