Ondo also sensed an undercurrent in her words. It seemed like she was talking about him, or maybe
not. He wondered if he had overthought the situation.
Cassandra didn’t want to continue the conversation with Ondo. She feared losing control of her
emotions. Since yesterday, she had reminded herself repeatedly, thinking, ‘Cassandra, stop your
wishful thinking already. It’s time to end the rtionship. There’s no hope. He will not fall in love with
you. All efforts are fruitless and may even irritate him.”
She took a silent breath, gradually calmed down, and then slowly returned to normal.

saw Cassandra, a doting smile immediately appeared on his face. “Cassie, you’re back. Come over
here. How are you ecently? Has Ondo been treating you well?”
Cassandra released Ondo’s arm and hurriedly went to Peter. She gently massaged his shoulders
and sweetly cassured him, “Grandpa Peter, I’m fine. Don’t worry about me. I’ve gained some weight,
and now I need to lose

weight or cip meals like others.”

Ondo, who dopd aside, watched the scene and smiled. She is good at cossing people Look how

In fact, Ondo didn’t understand why Peter, who had dominated the business world for decades, was
so imposing on everyone, Including his own grandson, except Cassandra.
He wondered what charm Cassandra had.
He said softly. “Grandpa, maybe next time, you should only ask Cassandra toe back and keep you

Everyone waited for Peter to host the dinner.
Peter, who was gentle and kind moments ago, suddenly turned serious and indifferent. He asked in a
deep voice, “Ondo. I heard from Cassie’s parents that you two are going to divorce…”
“What’s bound to happen has eventually happened,’ Ondo thought.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense,
The other three looked at Cassandra and Ondo.
Cassandra pursed her lips and said nothing.
Ondo’s expression remained unchanged. He looked into Peter’s eyes and said in a low voice,
“Grandpa, this is between Cassandra and me. Please stay out of it.”Content from N?velDr(a)ma.Org.
