    Cassandra tried to keep her distance from Ondo and hurriedly said, “Let go of me first.”


    “What if I don’t?” he asked.


    Ondo didn’t let her go. Instead, he lowered his head and slowly moved closer to her. Then his whole


    body moved behind her, with his chin resting on her shoulder. Their posture looked intimate.


    Cassandra was very ufortable. She wanted to break free. Ondo asked. “Cassandra, are you


    flustered?”


    She replied, “No. Please stay away from me. I can’t talk to you properly if we’re like this.”


    Tm not stopping you from talking. Is it because I’m too close to you?” he asked.


    Ondo’s warm breath hit her ear, making her a little unsure of how to react.


    “What’s wrong with him? He’s a bit clingy, she thought.


    When Ondo saw that Cassandra didn’t speak, he continued, “Cassandra, you’ve been very cold to


    me these days, and you never called me first. Are you forcing me to agree to divorce you this way? You


    are so cruel, Cassandra.”


    Hisplexion was slightly pale, and his gaze met hers through the mirror. He expressed his


    grievance through his words ofint.


    Cassandra pursed her rosy lips slightly and looked at his bobbing Adam’s apple. Ondo narrowed his


    eyes, then turned her around and pressed his forehead against hers. He said in a husky voice, “Do you


    want to divorce me so badly?”


    She replied. “You’re the one who asked for the divorce.”


    “Why do you still feel aggrieved? I should be the one, okay? sheined inwardly.


    He replied, “Yes, I brought it up first, but Cassandra, think about it yourself. I only mentioned it once.


    How many times have you mentioned it since then? You even talked to Grandpa behind my back. How


    did you convince him?”


    He was a little angry, but his tone was very soft. He grabbed her waist as if to punish her.


    Cassandra pushed him away, trying to keep her distance, but his chest was like a wall that wouldn’t


    budge.


    He asked, “Cassandra, answer me. Are you really so eager to cut ties with me? Are you so cruel as to


    leave me?”


    She replied, “Ondo, don’t twist the truth. It was you who wanted to divorce me and marry Reba.


    How could you make a false statement?”


    They could clearly feel each other’s breath because the distance between them was so close,


    When Ondo saw her eyes darting, he raised his hand to pinch her chin and make her look into his


    eyes. He said, “Till never mention it again, so go tell Grandpa you were just throwing a tantrum and


    make him give up the idea, okay?”


    “No,” she refused


    Ondo frowned and said, “Cassandra, behave yourself.”


    Then he leaned over and kissed her lips hard, causing her to feel


    pain.


    “Ondo, you can’t always bully me like this, Cassandra said in a low voice, struggling subconsciously


    and using all her strength to push him away.

    Her voice sounded a little shaky, her eyes reddened, and her nose tingled slightly. She also lost control


    of her emotions.

    Her appearance deeply moved him, and his heart felt like it was being torn apart.


    She looked at him and said, “Why are you upset now that Grandpa is willing to let us divorce? Ondo,


    what exactly do you.


    want?”


    As soon as she finished her words, Ondo kissed her again.


    Ondo had always been dominant in such matters. He didn’t give her a chance to fight back and


    immediately wrapped his arms around her waist, trapping her in his embrace.


    He kissed her harder and harder and only stopped when she was almost out of breath.


    They looked at each other, and Ondo gave her a meaningful look. He could not take his eyes off her


    beautiful, rosy face.


    He did not let go, but Cassandra could not allow him to continue by saying, “I’m having my


    menstruation.”


    Ondoughed out loud.


    He said. “Did I try to do anything? What are you talking about?”


    Hisughter echoed in the walk–in closet, not soft or loud, but she heard it clearly, and her heart


    trembled slightly.


    Cassandra felt baffled seeing his change of attitude.


    Doesn’t he love Reba very much? Why did he say and do such things she wondered,


    However, if Ondo didn’t tell her, she wouldn’t ask him.


    After all, the answer might not be what she wanted.


    She was just confused by his sudden change.


    What is he thinking she wondered.


    However, before she could figure out Ondo’s thoughts, Cassandra ran into trouble.


    On the phone, Nellie told Cassandra, “Cassandra, rumor has it that you’re an easy woman with a


    complicated private life and that you’ve befriended many unsavory characters to secure your position in


    the Jackson family. Also…”


    *What else did they say?” Cassandra asked.


    “They’re all terrible. Have you provoked someone?” Nellie replied.


    Nellie didn’t know how to tell her, and she found it hard to talk about it.


    She sent the screenshots to Cassandra, which had been spreading in the industry for several days.


    Even though Cassandra had returned to Broburgh a year ago, the people of upper society still had


    some impressions of her. After all, she had the support of the Jackson family, who had been in


    Broburgh for many years.


    Cassandra still had no idea what had happened after hearing Nellie’s words. Evelyn called as well.


    Evelyn had been mistreating Cassandra since thetter insisted on the divorce. She said indifferently,


    “Is it because you have a bad reputation that Ondo wants à divorce?”


    Cassandra remained silent,


    Chapter 67


    Evelyn continued without caring if Cassandra wanted to speak and continued, “Cassandra, even


    though you didn’t grow up with me by your side, I have raised you for more than ten years. Is that how I


    taught you? Is that how your granny taught you? How can you be so shameless?”


    “Granny has taught me well. You have no right to criticize her, Cassandra retorted.


    Evelyn was a little stunned and added, “So you turned bad all by yourself? Did the Jackson family


    mistreat you? How can you hang around with those ruthless people? You’re tarnishing our family’s


    reputation. How will Suzanne find a decent partner in the future? You’ve really disappointed me.”


    Cassandra eximed, “Do you always believe what others say without bothering to see if it is true! As


    long as someone says something, you think I did it. Then I have nothing to say. Think whatever you


    want!


    Evelyn was silent for a while, then questioned Cassandra again and ordered her to resolve the matter


    immediately so as not to negatively affect the Jackson family.


    Cassandra was frustrated but also realized that things might not be as simple as they seemed.


    However, she didn’t know who was behind it, so she needed to find out.


    When she got to the office, she told Michael about it.


    Michael frowned and said, “I’m going to find out who is behind this. How are you going to exin this to


    Ondo?”


    “Why should I exin something I didn’t do?” Cassandra asked faintly.


    Michael returned to his office after a brief conversation with her. He made a phone call and asked


    someone to investigate it. He then hung up the phone, lost in thought. Less than half a minuteter, he


    turned on his phone again and dialed a number.


    Someone answered the call immediately.


    Michael asked coldly. “Didn’t I tell you not to do anything I don’t want to see?”


    The man on the other end of the call said faintly, “I hate her.”


    Michael asked, “So you won’t even listen to me now?”


    I… the other party spoke hesitantly.


    Michael warned, “Don’t ever do that again. It will only backfire on me. Don’t forget our purpose.”


    The other party responded, “I got it.”


    Michael hung up the phone and raised his hand to his forehead, looking solemn and silent.
