Chapter 356 Sleep on the Floor

“I’ll go and check the kitchen a bit to see what food we have there. Stay here. Don’t move, all right?” Manuel said gently as he raised his hand, wanting to stroke Ainsley’s hair. But Ainsley dodged it,

Ainsley, left staring after him, whispered, “Why did he treat me like a child?”

Hearing that, Manuel, who was about to teach her à lesson, turned to fetch her a glass of water.

Then, with gentle hand movements, he fed her the water.
