Chapter 1461 A Permanent Solution


    Holley knew that giving money wasn''t a permanent solution and she couldn''t even afford it anyway.


    So giving money to Melissa who was merely specting in the stock market was a temporary


    expedient. Everything Holley did was for a reason but she just didn''t think it was the right time to tell


    Le the truth just yet.


    Le''s face turned gloomy at what Holley had just said. "Sounds good but I don''t have any money


    anymore. I''m not sure if I can keep giving her the money."


    Le waited for Holley to respond. She was trying to tell Holley something and she couldn''t say it


    directly so she hoped that Holley would just read between the lines. They were on the same team after


    all. They both wanted Le to get back to the Lu family so Holley should be giving her money too.

    Holley was smart enough to understand what Le was saying. She understood that Le was asking


    for her money. Le thought she was being too vague but Holley saw right through her.


    Holley couldn''t help but look down on Le, but she hid her disdain. Instead, she just said, "Don''t worry


    about the money. I can handle that. All you have to do is teach Melissa about stock market


    spection."


    Le heaved a sigh of relief. Holley always had her back no matter what happened.


    Just as Le was about to hang up, something urred to her so she decided to tell Holley about it.


    "Holley, Melissa is a gambling addict. She changes every time she gambles like she''s a new person. All


    she can see is the chips. She gets pretty wild at the gambling table."


    Holley didn''t know about this. She didn''t expect that the mother of the president of the Shining


    Company was a gambling addict. It was useful information. She and Le could definitely use it in their


    ns.


    Holley chuckled, "Wow! Thanks for that. We can use it to our advantage."


    Le didn''t understand right away so she asked further, but Holley wouldn''t tell her.


    "Don''t think about that anymore. I promise you, this is going to be easy. Melissa''s just a piece of cake,"


    Holley assured Le and said no more.


    Le wanted to know the answer but she couldn''t do anything about it.


    At the hospital, Sheryl was still waiting for Cassie.


    After she drove Jordan away, Sheryl was thrilled. She didn''t want Jordan to steal Cassie away from


    Nick.


    When Cassie finally came out, Sheryl stood up.


    Cassie took off her mask as she was walking. She was surprised to see Sheryl, so she asked, "Sher,


    why are you here?"


    But Sheryl just smiled at Cassie.


    Cassie smiled back at Sheryl. She was unable to hide the sadness. Something didn''t go unnoticed by


    Sheryl.


    "Cassie, do you have a minute? Do you want to have coffee? We haven''t talked in so long," Sheryl


    offered. There were too many people here and some of them might overhear their conversation.


    Cassie checked her watch. "I''ve got half an hour. We can go to a teahouse nearby."


    Sheryl smiled and nodded.


    Cassie went back inside to change. When she stepped out a few minutester, she was wearing her


    own clothes.


    "Sher, I missed you so much," Cassie said as she looped her arm with Sheryl''s. Cassie and Sheryl left


    the hospital talking andughing, catching up with one another.


    There weren''t many people in the teahouse. Sheryl found a window seat and Cassie sat opposite her.


    Cassie prepared Sheryl''s tea for her. "Sher, what brings you here? How are rk and Shirley doing?"


    "They''re in that yful and naughty stage. You know how kids can get. I don''t have the patience for it


    now especially with the holidays."


    Cassie was taken aback. "Howe? rk''s very sensitive and considerate. Sometimes, he even


    acts like an adult. Shirley''s just adorable!"


    "That''s because you don''t have to take care of them every day, Cassie. They''re wearing me down."


    Sheryl smiled bitterly and shook her head.


    Cassie stuck her tongue out and teased Sheryl, "Sher, you make me not want to have a baby!"


    "Having a baby is bittersweet, Cassie, you know. You''re so young and you just start your career. You


    don''t need to have a baby at such a young age."


    Cassie looked down by the time Sheryl finished speaking. She bit her lips. "Sher, I..."


    Sheryl realized what she said hurt Cassie. And that was the problem between Cassie and Nick. But


    Sheryl pretended that she knew nothing and asked, "What''s wrong, Cassie? You still haven''t made up


    with Nick? Have you visited him?"


    Cassie hesitated, not knowing how to respond.


    After all, what happened that night was a real shame for Cassie. And it hurt her so much. It was the first


    time that Cassie opened up to a man. But what she got was betrayal. How was she supposed to tell


    Sheryl about this and how was she supposed to love people again?


    Nick, the man Cassie loved with her whole heart, cheated on Cassie. He was in love with another


    woman. What was worse, Nick and that woman were living together!


    It was insane!


    Thinking about Nick''s betrayal, Cassie lowered her head. Her eyes welled up and tears fell down her


    cheeks.


    Sheryl couldn''t see Cassie''s face but she could tell Cassie was upset, so Sherylforted Cassie, "I


    know what kind of person Nick is. I''m sure he won''t do anything to hurt you. Even if he''s treating you


    indifferently, that just means he''s throwing a tantrum. Don''t worry. I''ll talk to him."


    Cassie kept her head lowered and remained silent.


    "How about this? When you get off work today, let''s go visit Nick. You two can have a face-to-face


    conversation so you can solve your problems. What do you think?"


    "No, I don''t want to see him!" Cassie protested right away. After what happenedst night, Cassie didn''t


    ever want to see Nick again. She was afraid she wouldn''t be able to control herself.
