Chapter 132 Why Are You Here


    "What''s wrong with you, Cloris? Remember, this is the Tang Group''s office and not the Qin family


    house. You cannot have your tantrums here, or else, I will be forced to ask security to escort you out,"


    Cassandra said forcibly.


    She could not stand Cloris''s temperament. If they were at home, she would probably muster more


    patience to deal with her bratty and self-centered sister. At the workce, though, she had to put her


    foot down. After all, she was the firm''s Architectural Design Manager. In no way was she going to allow


    her sister to talk to her like that.


    "Wow, Cassandra, You really are somebody, aren''t you? It looks like you won''t even listen to dad. How


    dare you threaten me with calling the security? Who do you think you are? Well you know what, I am


    ashamed to be your sister! I am ashamed to be associated with a double crosser like you! And


    because you had so much audacity to do it, I am not afraid to reveal it!"


    Cloris shouted. She yelled like a crazy person and it angered Cassandra very much.


    "Call the security! Get thisdy out of here!"


    Cassandra demanded. Right now she had no patience for Cloris, who seemed to have lost her sanity.


    She knew that work hours were not the right time to settle personal issues and decided that it was best


    to talk to her sister after work.


    The security guards walked in and pulled Cloris''s arms to drag her out. Cloris shrugged them off and


    red at the guards.


    "I can walk by myself! Do you think I want to be here? I don''t even want toe to this ce! You are


    a disgrace!" she shouted.


    Then she walked away briskly. The two guards exchanged nces with each other before followed her


    out.


    The assistant, knowing that Cassandra would need some time to settle down, left the room as well, and


    closed the door behind her. Cassandra rubbed her forehead as she sat on her chair.


    She had been so upied with work from both the Tang Group and the Qin Group that she barely got


    to talk to Cloris. Therefore, she could not think of any reason why her sister was so upset.


    After hesitating for quite a while, she finally picked up her phone and sent Cloris a message, "Cloris,


    wait for me at the Sweet Coffee Shop. Let''s talk then."


    Cassandra stared at the screen for several minutes but received no new notification. Her mind then


    slowly drifted away.


    Suddenly, the door swung open. It was Ste, running into the office.


    "Cassandra, what happened to your sister? She was vandalizing your photo on the Employee of the


    Month board and couldn''t stop cursing you. The security guards tried to stop her and they ended up


    fighting!" she said worriedly.


    Cassandra stood up immediately and was about to run out, but was pulled back by Ste.


    "She''s gone! I asked more guards to drive her away! I know she is your sister and she must be doing


    this to get your attention. She would be happy to see you down there so that she can curse you in your


    face, so just stay here. By the way, what happened between you two?" Ste asked, concerned.


    ''Cloris was interning under Leo and handling administrative matters. I don''t remember her having such


    a bad temper. Why did she be like this?'' Ste wondered.


    "I also have no clue. She just came over and threw a tantrum. I asked why but she didn''t say anything.


    I texted her asking her to talk to me after work. Hopefully she will enlighten me," Cassandra replied


    helplessly.


    This irritated her very much. Cloris seemed so angry at her but she did not know why.


    "Do you want me to go with youter? I don''t want you to be bullied by your crazy sister,"

    Ste offered.


    "Don''t worry about me. She''s my sister, after all. She won''t harm me. I''ll talk to her patiently and sort it


    out," Cassandra assured her friend.


    Then she remembered the time when she just came home from Rome. Cassandra would spend the


    night with the Qin family and she actually slept with Cloris. She was the girl who used to have beautiful


    and sweet smiles. ''This is so not like her. What is going on with her?'' Cassandra wondered.


    Cassandra went straight to Sweet Coffee Shop after work and sat in the corner. She ordered herself a


    cup of coffee and waited, checking her phone from time to time. It was 6:10 pm and Cloris still didn''t


    show up.


    As she was about to call Cloris, Cassandra felt a thrill passing through the air.


    When she raised her head, she saw Cloris walking towards her with a face devoid of any emotion.


    Cassandra opened her mouth to say "hi", but before she could say anything, the hand hiding behind


    Cloris suddenly swung towards her. Cloris was holding a bottle of paint and she threw it at her sister.


    Cassandra had never been in such an embarrassing situation. All the people in the coffee shop were


    looking at her.


    Seeing Cassandra fall into a daze with her body full of paint, Cloris felt ted.


    "I''m warning you, Cassandra. The fact that you''re the daughter-inw of Horace Tang, doesn''t mean


    anything to me! If you dare cause Arthur any trouble again, next time you won''t be so lucky to have just


    paint thrown at you," she said.


    After casually throwing the bottle away, Cloris sped her palms together in satisfaction and walked


    away, leaving the crowd stunned.


    Cassandra seemed to have lost her hearing. Her vision seemed to be clouded as well. The liquid was


    vicious. It found its way from the head down to her hair, and then to the floor.


    It dripped and dripped.


    The paint that Cloris used was colored and it stung. She made sure that it would create a strong odor


    and difort to Cassandra.


    Was this unsightly or unsettling? Was this disgraceful or insulting?


    Cassandra could not manage to decipher her emotions at the moment. Instead, she reached for the


    tissue and proceeded to wipe her face.


    It dried up so quickly that she could feel her skin harden.


    Realizing that her efforts were futile, she put some money on the table and left the coffee shop with her


    head kept low.


    Even as she walked out of the shop and escaped from the gazes from the customers inside, the


    pedestrians still could not help but stare at the woman covered in paint.


    As for Cassandra, her mind was nk. She felt as if she just lost all her senses.


    "Cassandra!"


    someone suddenly called out from behind her. He ran towards her and started to pat her shoulder from


    her back. The voice sounded excited.


    Upon hearing her name, Cassandra turned back, and revealed her embarrassing and miserable face.


    "Oh my goodness! What happened to you?" Dylon eximed in disbelief.


    It took no time for his expression to transform from excitement to shock. Never had he seen Cassandra


    like that!


    Cassandra wanted to force a smile so she would not look too pathetic, but the expression turned out to


    be quite awkward.


    Without hesitation, Dylon pulled her towards his car and pushed her inside. Without taking his time to


    seek her approval, he quickly drove away from the crowd.


    No one probably noticed the pregnant woman at the corner of the street who watched the whole thing


    unfold, stunned.


    She saw Cloris, who stormed her way out of the coffee shop, followed by Cassandra, who had wet


    paint all over her, and finally Dylon, who took Cassandra away.


    A disdainful smile crept on Ivy''s cheeks. ''Well, I didn''t know that this woman has such a profligate


    lifestyle. She seems to already have an affair with Rufus, and as if it is still not enough, she even


    seems to have an unusual rtionship with the son of Jenks Tong!'' Ivy thought.


    ''By the way, did Cloris just pour paint over her sister? What could have happened? A family quarrel?''


    As she was wondering, the baby in her belly gave her a kick.


    ''Well, it looks like I have to have a talk with Cassandra!'' Ivy decided.


    Dylon drove her to his house and brought her straight to the bathroom. He got a new towel from the


    wardrobe and threw it at her.


    "Take a shower first. There is a washing machine and a drier in theundry room. I have to leave for


    now. When you are done, just remember to close the door after you go out,"


    he said before taking his leave.


    Cassandra stood holding the towel, feeling moved.


    She was aware that Dylon knew that she would receive many questions from the family if she returned


    home covered in paint. This would be another headache for her.


    How could someone hate her so much that he or she would do this? This question would surelye


    up if she were to return home like this.


    The events that had transpired repeated in her head as she was showering.


    ''Why did Cloris ask me to not cause Arthur any trouble? Isn''t Arthur the person who is causing me


    trouble?


    What is it between them? Are they in a rtionship?'' Cassandra asked herself.


    Feeling extremely unsettled, she made the water gush onto her head to clear her mind.


    Meanwhile, in the living room of a well furnished t, two men sat on a couch with their eyebrows


    creased.


    "Are you telling me that I have to talk to Arthur about dividing the project of the amusement park into


    two and, assigning one part to Dawn Star Group and the other to Tang Group?"


    It was Jasper speaking with Rufus, who had a stern look.


    "This isn''t how you do things, is it? Aren''t you going to take all of it from them?"


    Jasper seemed to be quite familiar with how Rufus usually worked. He had always overpowered his


    opponents so it puzzled him that Rufus was not going for an extreme.


    "This isn''t something you should be concerned about. Just tell Arthur what I want, and the Tang Group


    is willing to go at great lengths to reach our goal. If he still wants to maintain his ce in the Union, this


    is our condition," Rufus stated with a determined look.


    After an agreement had been reached, Rufus stood up and prepared to take his leave.


    When he opened the door, the door at the opposite side also opened. An astoundingly familiar figure


    walked out.


    "Cassandra? Why are you here?"
