《How Death Became My Rebirth》 Chapter 1 Chapter 1 The Demise Of The Real Daughter ¡°Cassandra, how could you treat me like this? How could you hurt me?¡± Yulissa Yates¡¯ voice quivered as she wept. For two long years, Cassandra Yates endured the hypocritical voice of her supposed younger sister. Cassandra felt that her life after she turned 18 was practically a cruel joke. ¡®Hurt you?¡¯ Cassandra parroted mentally. Truth be told, she truly wished she had hurt Yulissa, as only then could she quell the anguish she had endured these two years. Their eldest brother, Leonardo Yates, delivered a scornful kick that sent Cassandra sprawling to the ground. ¡°I don¡¯t have a malicious sister like you. Yulissa is my only sister. You''re! Not! Worthy!¡± Frederick Yates, their second older brother, seized Cassandra¡¯s throat. ¡°Who gave you the audacity to bully Lisa? Looks like you''re really sick of living!¡± Jasper Yates, the third older brother, injected a potent drug that intensified the magnitude of pain a human could tolerate tenfold into Cassandra¡¯s vein. ¡°Since you dare to harm my sister, you shall pay back tenfold!¡± Yohannes Yates, the fourth older brother, refrained fromying a finger on Cassandra. Instead, he regarded her with an indifferent gaze as if he were observing a piece of loathsome trash. ¡°If anything happens to Lisa, I¡¯ll make sure you pay with your life!¡± Matthew Yates, the fifth older brother, unleashed a flurry of punches and kicks upon Cassandra, who was lying on the ground. ¡°You''ve truly got a death wish. How dare you bully the little princess of our family? If you wanna die, just say so! I''ll grant your wish!¡± The sixth older brother, Raymond Yates, wielded an army knife and severed the tendons of Cassandra''s hand, then threw out a barrage of punches at her abdomen. ¡°Yulissa is the only beloved daughter of the Yates family. You''re just a worthless trash trying to take her ce!¡± Cassandra stoically allowed her blood to drip from the corner of her mouth while the severed tendons in her hand gushed out blood endlessly. Irony hung thick in the air. Cassandra, the biological daughter of the Yates family, was clearly the true victim in this situation. Yet, the roles had inexplicably reversed as they perceived her as the worthless perpetrator. When she was first brought home, they had promised to ensure equal treatment between the two sisters and assured her they could all live in peace under one roof. However, the truth was¡ªYulissa remained the apple of the family¡¯s eye, whereas Cassandra had to bear the anguish and torments in silence. There could never be equal treatment when all of the family members yed favorites with Yulissa. Not once did Cassandra''s blood-rted brothers stand on her side. Whenever Yulissa shed a tear, the me would beid squarely on Cassandra by her biological parents, Benjamin and Miranda Yates. They insisted that Cassandra was intolerant toward Yulissa and reiterated that Cassandra¡¯s path to survival could only be secured if Yulissa lived a better life. Cassandra¡¯s six brothers, all indifferent to Cassandra, treated Yulissa like a precious treasure, while Cassandra, their actual biological sister, was treated like dirt. ¡®Cassandra, oh Cassandra! So, this is the kind of family affection you''ve yearned for over 18 years? Is it worth it? You left everything behind just to be regarded as trash by this bunch of bloodsuckers. Is it worth it to lose yourself over them?¡¯ Cassandra ruminated. Tolerating the pain, Cassandra slowly got up on her feet. ¡°Aaah! Cassandra, please, don¡¯t hurt me! I¡¯m sorry!¡± Yulissa screamed in terror as if Cassandra standing up would threaten her life. Though Cassandra, hunched and battered, did not even lift her arm, Yulissa plunged a knife into the former¡¯s chest. Cassandra stared at the knife in her chest in disbelief, then lifted her head to take a gander at Yulissa. ¡°Cassandra, aaah, I¡¯m sorry! I¡¯m sorry! | didn¡¯t mean to do that,¡± Yulissa eximed in a frightened manner. She even hurriedly pulled the knife out and tossed it on the ground in a panic. No longer having the strength to stand, Cassandra copsed. Yet, her six biological brothers merely nced at her with contempt. With disdainful tones, they cursed, saying she¡¯d best die elsewhere, for she¡¯d bring them bad luck otherwise. Eventually, as they had hoped, Cassandra sumbed to the injuries caused by this treacherous family. Leonardo simply uttered coldly, ¡°She¡¯s better off dead. Have someone toss her into the mountains to feed the wolves. Let¡¯s see if she dares to hurt Lisa again.¡± With that, Cassandra¡¯s body was dragged into the deep mountains by a subordinate. ¡°Ms. Yates, | don¡¯t wish to do this, but I¡¯m merely an employee. When you reach the underworld, cast aside every memory of this life and go get yourself reborn. You''ve truly suffered too much. | pray that in your next life, you''ll be born into a family that genuinely loves you.¡± Rather than throwing her into the wolf¡¯s den, the subordinate dug a hole in a secluded ce. ¡°Ms. Yates, the circumstances are tough, so | dare not prepare a coffin for you. | can only bury you inly. If luck is on your side, someone mighte to im your body.¡± The subordinate returned to the Yates residence after burying Cassandra, only to discover that the entire property had been smashed to smithereens. Benjamin, Miranda, and their six sons, along with the adopted daughter Yulissa, were bound together, covered in bruises from head to toe. Sobbingly, Yulissa feigned vulnerability, whining to her brothers, ¡°Why is he doing this to me? It hurts!¡± ¡°Don''t worry, Lisa. We''ll protect you,¡± Leonardoforted her firmly, and the other five brothers echoed the sentiment. Keh Zelinski observed the scene with a stony, predatory gaze as scathing bloodthirstiness emanated from him. ¡°You guys killed your own sister for this impostor?¡± Cassandra could notprehend why she was witnessing this scene. ¡®Have | be a ghost?¡¯ she wondered. Keh, a formidable figure renowned in the capital, Drieso, was supposed to be the sole rightful heir of the Zelinski family. Yet, he found himself thrust into the underground fighting arena in the country of Atharia by his own father, left to fend for himself. Yearster, upon his return to Drieso, he swiftly sidelined his father within a month and sought ruthless revenge on those who had hurt him. Though notorious for being cunning and savage, Keh was undeniably the wealthiest man in Drieso and, quite possibly, the entire country and globe. ¡®What is he doing here? Is he seeking revenge for me?¡¯ Cassandra pondered.This material belongs to N?velDrama.Org. ¡°We only have one sister, and that¡¯s Lisa. We don¡¯t need a petty, malicious sister like Cassandra!¡± dered Raymond with conviction. In the Yates family¡¯s view, there was nothing wrong with them loving their little sister. They believed Cassandra to be malicious and intolerant of Yulissa and unfit to be part of their family. ¡°Ha! All of you are so blind that you can¡¯t even distinguish a pearl from a stone,¡± Keh sneered, his smirk tinged with ridicule and viciousness. ¡°Since you guys killed Cassie, you shall die alongside her!¡± Bang! Bang! Bang! Eight gunshots rang out, concluding the fate of the Yates family. Yulissa was the only one who was still alive. Terrified, she pleaded, ¡°Please don¡¯t kill me! It was them who killed Cassandra. | had nothing to do with it!¡± ¡®This man actually fired for real! He blew everyone''s brains out! ¡®| don¡¯t wanna die! | don¡¯t want to!¡¯ she thought in a panic. As such, she could only shift the me onto her already deceased brothers. ¡°What did Cassie go through before she died?¡± Keh strode toward Yulissa, gazing down at her from above. ¡°|-| don¡¯t know...¡± Yulissa stammered flusteredly, trying to evade the question. She knew she couldn''t speak the truth, for it would only lead to a more brutal death. ¡°Then tell me, where did you people dump Cassie¡¯s body?¡± The notion of Cassandra not receiving a proper burial and being left to be consumed by wild animals fueled Keh¡¯s hatred. In his despair, he wished he could destroy the entire world, seeking some semnce ofpensation for her tragic death. ¡°I-In the mountains...¡± ¡®At this point, Cassandra¡¯s body should have already been devoured by wolves and wild dogs. ¡®Hahahaha! She doesn¡¯t even have a proper burial in death. Cassandra, you can never surpass me in this lifetime!¡¯ Yulissa thought smugly. Keh¡¯s pupils contracted in shock. He thought, ¡®Son of a gun, I¡¯ve let the Yates family off too easily! They shouldn¡¯t have died such a simple death!¡¯ ¡°|... | know where her body is,¡± interjected the subordinate who buried Cassandra. ¡°You know?¡± Keh stared at that man with a threatening gaze. Yannick Zelinski, Keh¡¯s subordinate, dragged that man to Keh. ¡°It was... Mr. Leonardo Yates who asked me to throw Ms. Cassandra Yates¡¯ body into the mountains. | didn¡¯t have the heart to do that, so | dug a hole and buried her.¡± That subordinate was being honest. Keh ordered his men to inflict on Yulissa ten times the pain that Cassandra had suffered before her death. He then followed that subordinate to dig up Cassandra¡¯s body and take it away. Cassandra observed all of this as she floated in the air, feeling rather bewildered. Chapter 2 Chapter 2 When Cas sandra regained consciousness again, she found herself in a cramped. storeroom. This was the room Yulissa had prepared for her when Cas sandra returned to the Yates. family, iming it was the only vacant space for the time being. However, this storeroom was even smaller than Yulissa¡¯s wardrobe. Yulissa, thenden with remorse, expressed, ¡°I know you are a biological child of this family. I''ve never truly belonged to the Yates family. However, | have lived here for 18 years, and putting away all the things | own here is no easy task. So, for now, I''ll need you to bear with this humble room until | find a better ce.¡± Upon hearing Yulissa¡¯s words, Yulissa¡¯s brothers objected, sarcastically using Cas sandra of being melodramatic for wanting a bigger space. They imed that thetter was merely seeking attention and attempting to rece their beloved sister in the family dynamic. Despite feeling unfairly judged at that moment, Cas sandra attempted to appease her siblings, saying, ¡°Please don¡¯t be upset. I''ll make do with this space.¡± Cas sandra grappled with an unsettling feeling amid the stark reality of her surroundings. She recalled her death by Yulissa¡¯s de. The question of why she awoke in this confined space haunted her. If not for the vivid pain preceding her death, she might have dismissed it all as a dream. Cas sandra wondered if fate had taken pity on her helpless and lonely past life by offering her a second chance through a rebirth. If that were the case, she would have to diverge from the course of fate set for her in her past life! ¡®Cas sandra, remember how you were a person of pride before returning to the Yates. family? Yet, in the two months since your return, you were disregarded and considered a disgrace in the family. Don¡¯t you feel sorry for yourself? The Yates family isn¡¯t worth sacrificing everything for. In these two months, you''ve been treated like an animal. They boss you around and enjoy the benefits of your hard work while giving you only harsh words in return. What¡¯s worst, they manipted you into believing that Yulissa was the sole heiress of the Yates family and that you would only be given a decent life when Yulissa¡¯s desires are fulfilled, thought Cas sandra. After a brief pause, she still continued to weigh up the situation. ¡®Dear, dear Cas sandra. 11:18 Fri, 16 Feb MU Chapter 2 70 You spent two years pleasing them in the previous life, but all you got was their curses and punishments. Is that truly what you want? Now that you''re reborn, you have to put an end to all this tragedy. Do not let history repeat itself, mused Cas sandra solemnly. Knock! Her thoughts were abruptly interrupted by a series of knocks on the door. ¡°Cas sandra, are you deaf? Lisa wants you. Who do you think you are to turn a deaf ear to her words?¡± scolded Raymond, he sixth brother. Raymond was particrly known for his impatience and his temper. The 20-year-old young man was close in age to Yulissa, which exined why they were particrly close to each other. Afterposing herself, Cas sandra opened the door. ¡°Oh, really? When did Lisa ask for me?¡± Cas sandra retorted with a touch of sarcasm. Yulissa, standing nearby, appeared to be on the verge of tears. ¡°Cas sandra, | called you three times, but you ignored me.¡± As Yulissa spoke, tears welled up in her eyes. ¡°Did you, now? This storeroom is poorly insted, yet | did not hear anyone calling for me. Were you just whispering my name? If that¡¯s the case, it''s not my fault | couldn¡¯t hear you,¡± retorted Cas sandra. ¡°Cas s andra, what are you talking about? Lisa invites you, and instead of being grateful, you throw a tantrum. Do you think I won''t rough you up?¡± When Raymond saw how distressed Yulissa looked, he unfairly pushed the me on Cas sandra. Raymond thought that this was all Cas sandra¡¯s fault. If not for her, Yulissa would not have suffered from such humiliation. He was unable to fathom why, after eighteen years, Cas sandra had not met her end outside. Why would she return? ¡°Was there a time when you held back from hitting me?¡± Cas sandra set aside any attempt to spare Raymond''s feelings. After all, she had resolved to leave. ¡°You...¡± ¡°Ray, please don¡¯t be upset. Cas sandra didn¡¯t mean any harm. I¡¯m the one who has been basking in your affection all this while, and Cas sandra has every right to resent me. I¡¯m sorry, Cas sandra.¡± Yulissa truly resembled a princess in her white ballroom. gown and exquisite makeup. 2/4 11:19 Fri, 16 Feb M Chapter 2 Right now, her eyes reddened as she appeared to be quite distressed. 70% ¡°What''s going on with Cas sandra today? How dare she talk back to me? Does she really think tonight''s wee party is meant for her?¡¯ Yulissa scoffed inwardly. Cas sandra said nothing, choosing instead to watch Yulissa feign innocence. ¡°Lisa, don¡¯t cry. You¡¯re a cherished member of this family, so of course, we care about you. Good girl, don¡¯t cry. Raymond tenderly consoled Yulissa, reserving his love exclusively for his family except for Cas sandra. ¡°Hmph, Cas sandra, for the sake of Yulissa, I''ll let you off the h ook today. Listen, you better listen to whatever Mom and Dad say at the party tonight. Don¡¯t cause any trouble, or | won''t go easy on you!¡± Raymond''s warning held little weight with the current Cas sandra. ¡®A party? | almost forgot it though, Cas sandra thought. While the Yates birthday celeb, imed it was a wee party, it was, in truth, Yulissa¡¯s It was also at this party that Benjamin and Miranda proimed Yulissa as their true heiress, relegating Cas sandra from being the rightful sessor to an adopted child. The party brought the Yates family great reputation in high society for being generous phnthropists like Mother Theresa, and they enjoyed all the admiration they got from their guests. As for Cas sandra, she yed the part of the stray who was adopted by the Yates family. Now that Cas sandra had returned to the day when the wee party was held, it would have been a shame if she did not cause a scene before leaving. In the banquet hall that evening, the guests were exchanging toasts and greetings as they were seated. As the moment arrived, Benjamin and Miranda walked Yulissa onto the stage arm in arm. Her six elder brothers followed closely behind, assuming the role of her cavaliers.This material belongs to N?velDrama.Org. In stark contrast, Cas sandra was totally ignored by them and only stood among the guests, dressed in a T-shirt and faded jeans. The affluent youngdies in the circle could not resist mocking her, wondering how someone of her ilk managed to secure an invitation to the party. Everyone wondered where this beggar-like poor girl came from. ¡°Good evening, everyone. Wee to my daughter Yulissa¡¯s 18th birthday 11:19 Fri, 16 Feb Mu Chapter 2 celebration... Benjamin, beaming with pride, spoke effusively about Yulissa, showering her with everypliment he could think of. Yulissa blushed and modestly replied, ¡°You''re exaggerating, Dad. I¡¯m nowhere near that. great.¡± ¡°We are all extremely proud of you,¡± Miranda added affectionately. Amid the showering of praises on Yulissa, Cas sandra felt a sense of bitter irony. They had lost her while she was a little girl, and instead of looking for her, they adopted a girl of a simr age, brought her into the family, and seemingly forgot about their own biological daughter. Even now, when Cas sandra returned home, the Yates family held no joy but disdain in her after their long period of separation. ¡°Well, you see, Lisa is our kid. To give her somepany, my wife and | decided to adopt a kid from the orphanage, just a few days older than Lisa. As such, both girls are our daughters.¡± As Benjamin spoke, there was a hint of disapproval in his voice. When Miranda saw Cas sandra in a T-shirt and jeans, her expression darkened. ¡°How unsophisticated! On such an important asion, how could she dress so casually??¡¯ wondered Miranda. While suppressing her anger, Mirandamanded, ¡°Cas sandra,e over here.¡± ¡®What a disgrace!¡¯ she scoffed inwardly. However, they couldn¡¯t go back on their words. Cas sandra walked onto the stage without haste. To their surprise, her eyes reflected no gratitude, yet sarcasm was written all over her face. ¡°So, you''re telling me I¡¯m adopted? Didn¡¯t you both, as well as Leo, hand me a DNA test report confirming my biological ties to the Yates family? Was that a lie?¡± Cas sandra asked. The guests in the hall erupted into whispers. f& SEND GIFT 0 Chapter 3 Chapter 3 ¡°What? Cas sandra is their biological daughter? What about Yulissa?

Have they truly taken an adopted child as their own and provided her everything, while abandoning their real daughter in an orphanage?¡± ¡°| don¡¯t think it was an orphanage. Could she have been abandoned somewhere else. and was only taken back some time ago?¡± ¡°Is Yulissa an illegitimate daughter?¡± ¡°Well, | also think so.

Hearing the criticism, the six brothers couldn¡¯t take it anymore. Raymond lost his temper and shouted, ¡°What on earth are you all talking about? There¡¯s only one daughter in the Yates family, and that¡¯s Lisa. Cas sandra doesn¡¯t deserve to be part of the Yates family!¡± All the guests were thinking, ¡°Wow, something big¡¯s gonna happen!

Therefore, she expressed her frustration by scolding Yulissa. Unfortunately, the brothers witnessed it. Jasper then locked her in the storeroom for three days straight. During the whole three days, she received only one meal on the second day, and it was the leftovers of the serv ants. Cas sandra learned in her past life that she had to stay away from these people.

The best way to punish evil people was to be more shameless than them. Without giving them a chance to speak, Cas sandra swiftly took out an army knife and cut her own wrist. In an instant, blood dripped from her wrist. ¡°Ah!¡± Yulissa and the others present screamed in fear. However, Cas sandra wore a per verse, morbid look. Smiling bloodthirstily, she watched the blood trickle down her wrist. Jasper¡¯s expression darkened.

There was nothing important to her in this home. She came to the Yates residence alone with nothing but two sets of clothes. Now that she was leaving, she didn¡¯t need to take anything with her. The Yates family never bought clothes or shoes for her. In the past two months, Yulissa received small gifts every day, but none of those gifts were meant for Cas sandra. She came with nothing, so she would also depart with nothing. Cas sandra walked out with determination. Even her leaving silhouette portrayed a hint of stubbornness. ¡°There¡¯s nothing worth watching at this party now. Let¡¯s go.¡± ¡°Yeah, this is so boring.

That''s what men like!¡± On the side of the banquet hall, a man observed Cas sandra¡¯s every action attentively, his gaze unfathomable. He felt an overwhelming urge to rush out and protect her when he saw her cut her wrist. Nevertheless, he forcefully suppressed that urge. It was time for Cas sandra to learn to grow up. Even if the price was huge, she must grow up. ¡°Yannick, have someone protect her, take her to the hospital and arrange the best doctor,¡± he instructed.

Though notorious for being cun ning and savage, Keh was undeniably the wealthiest man in Drieso and, quite possibly, the entire country and globe. ¡°Yes, Mr. Zelinski!¡± Yannick nodded, turned around, and went out from the other door, following Cas sandra. Meanwhile, Cas sandra had walked out of the Yates residence. The excessive blood loss caused her to look a little pale. She grabbed her phone and dialed a number she memorized. ¡°Jeremiah, pick me up at the Yates residence.¡± Cas sandra sat quietly on the stone block outside the mansion and waited for Jeremiah toe and get her. Yannick, pretending like he didn¡¯t know her, stopped his car in front of Cas sandra. ¡°Ms. Yates, do you need a ride?¡± he asked. ¡°No, thank you,¡± Cas sandra refused coldly. At that moment, she didn¡¯t trust anyone, especially someone outside the Yates residence. ¡®Hah. The Yates family must be up to no good again, she mused. In her past life, she barely saw Keh, let alone Yannick, who was always with Keh. Hence, it was understandable that she did not recognize Yannick. Yannick didn¡¯t know what to do. If Cas sandra refused to get in the car, he wouldn''t be able toplete the task assigned by Keh. A few minutester, a shy pink Ferrari stopped in front of Cas sandra.

After they died, their bodies were thrown intorge pits in the mountains to be eaten by wild animals. Jeremiah was one of the kids. He was too weak, passing out after receiving two injections of experimental reagents. After he was thrown into the pile of dead bodies, Cas sandra happened to walk past the pit and was startled to see the horrifying sight. Just as she was going to run away, Jeremiah¡¯s fingers moved. Cas sandra had always been fearless since she was a child. When she noticed Jeremiah¡¯s fingers moving, she dragged him out of the pile of dead bodies and carried him home. After a period of treatment, the toxins in Jeremiah¡¯s body were cleared. He finally regained consciousness following two weeks of recuperation. Upon waking up, he didn¡¯t remember much about his troubled past and didn¡¯t want to remember, too. Hence, he spent the next ten years following Cas sandra around. ¡°Can you please not assume the worst? Hurry up and take me to the hospital.¡± Cas sandra¡¯s beautiful eyebrows furrowed. Though she didn¡¯t get mad, she exuded an intimidating aura. Jeremiah pouted, shrugged his shoulders, and helped Cas sandra into the car. ¡°You shouldn''t have called me until you died so that | can collect your body.¡± Jeremiah was filled with fury at the thought that Cas sandra did not regard him as her family member. Two months ago, she abandoned everything for her so-called family. Jeremiah pondered, ¡®S6 what¡¯s going on now? Did she onlye to realize the truth. after getting hurt?¡± ¡°You are so noisy!¡± Cas sandra felt a headache and wanted him to shut up. Jeremiah was at a loss for words. 70% Chapter 4 ¡®So | can¡¯t even joke about her mistake now?¡¯ he thought. ¡°Don¡¯t worry. You won¡¯t die even if you bleed more than this.¡± Jeremiah¡¯s way of reassuring her was annoying. Cas sandra pondered, ¡°What does he mean by | won''t die?¡± ¡°I know,¡± she said. Cas sandra refused tomunicate with Jeremiah, so she leaned back and closed her eyes. ¡°By the way, get someone to deliver 20,000 dors in cash to the Yates familyter,¡± she added. Cas sandra believed an extra 8,000 dors should shut them up. ¡°Why?¡± he asked. ¡°To pay for the food and room they provided for me in the past two months. I¡¯m cutting ties with them,¡± Cas sandra replied with no emotions. Without expectation of or hope for kinship, she wouldn¡¯t feel pain anymore. She was killed once by them, and she wouldn¡¯t let it happen again. ¡°Have you thought it through?¡± Jeremiah asked as he stopped at the red light and turned to her. ¡°Do you want me to go back to the Yates family?¡± she asked. She thought, ¡°That¡¯s impossible, right? When | left, he kept begging me not to leave. Is he changing his mind now?¡± Jeremiah immediately said, ¡°Of course not. The Yates family is a despicable bunch.¡± They were all a bunch of s cu m who couldn''t distinguish between what was real and what was fake. In the past two months, he had been watching Cas sandra¡¯s life. Sometimes, he desperately wanted to rush into the Yates residence and take her away! Nevertheless, Cas sandra had made it clear that she would sever ties with anyone who dared to disturb her. Thus, Jeremiah tried his best to suppress his anger. Luckily, Cas sandra had eventuallye around. Chapter 5 Chapter 5 In the Yates residence, several people were sitting in the living room, encircling Yulissa with concern.. This was because Yulissa had cried once more. ¡°It''s all my fault. I-If | had moved out earlier, Cas sandra wouldn''t have done this. | me myself. But | just can¡¯t bear to part from my parents and brothers. Why is Cas sandra so mad at me?¡± Yulissa cried sorrowfully. She hadn¡¯t expected Cas sandra to be so resolute. ¡®But Cas sandra, don¡¯t think you can gain the favor of our parents and brothers this way! They only love me! You are simply making a fool of yourself!¡¯ she silently mocked. ¡°Lisa, don¡¯t cry. It pains me to see you in tears,¡± Miranda said, her face filled with distress. ¡®Lisa is so understanding. If only she were my biological daughter! That darn Cas sandra is a total ingrate! I¡¯ve had it with her!¡± she thought. ¡°Lisa, you are our sister. Do not say anything about moving out again. Cas sandra was just making a fuss to attract attention. Leonardoforted her, his heart aching at the sight of Yulissa¡¯s crying face. At the same time, he was utterly displeased with Cas sandra¡¯s behavior tonight. ¡®How dare she, a sister who has been away for 18 years... No, she is not our sister. How dare she try to get our attention? She even made Lisa cry. That girl seriously deserves to be taught a lesson! Once she returns, | must lock her up for a week and make her change her temper. She¡¯s really going too far! Completely ill-mannered!¡¯ he pondered. ¡°That¡¯s right, Lisa. Don¡¯t worry. Someone like her wille back in no time, for sure. She won''t leave our family,¡± Yohannes suddenly said, reassuring her. Aaa teenage musician and aplished violinist, Yohannes had obtained numerous awards. At present, he was on a world tour and gearing up for the Camille International Music Competition. Only after he became the winner of thispetition could his abilities be recognized by the world. Yohannes wholly believed that the Yates family had provided Cas sandra with a good life, and she was only causing a commotion now to seek their attention after witnessing the affection they had for Yulissa. 15 Chapter 5 He was confident that Cas sandra would return to apologize after they had ignored her for two days. ¡°Will Cas sandra reallye back? Leo, are you lying to me?¡± Yulissa looked at Leonardo expectantly. Her gaze almost melted Leonardo¡¯s heart. ¡®Lisa is such an amazing little sister. Cas sandra seriously doesn¡¯t know her ce. If she could show the same love to Lisa as we do, we would be okay with epting her as our sister. But she is such an ingrate, desiring the love that doesn¡¯t belong to her, he mused. Meanwhile, Yulissa snickered in her heart, ¡®Come back? It¡¯s best if she neveres back at all. Only I, Yulissa Yates, deserve to be the daughter of the Yates family. ¡°She wille back. When she does, we will make her apologize to you,¡± Jasper consoled Yulissa softly. He always had plenty of patience with this baby sister of his. Hearing that, Yulissa smiled through tears and nodded cutely. ¡°I''m d she''lle back,¡± she said. Not long after, Robert Zahn, the butler, came in to report. ¡°Mr. and Mrs. Yates, there¡¯s a man outside who ims to have been sent by Ms. Cas sandra Yates...¡± he trailed off, adding ¡°to deliver money¡± me ntally. Robert felt that the Yates family was being too harsh toward Cas sandra. They were too ruthless toward their own flesh and blood. He used to think that the Yates brothers were all extraordinary and outstanding individuals, so it was a shock for him to find out how cruel they could be toward a girl. Benjamin¡¯s face fell. He thought, ¡®What prank is this brat pulling now?¡± ¡°Let him in,¡± Benjamin said. Just in time. I''ll have this done throwing her tan inform Cas sandra to get her as s back home after she¡¯s ¡°Yes, Mr. Yates, replied Robert. Soon, someone came in. contemted. The visitor was an exceedingly refined man dressed in a tuxedo akin to a dapper butler¡¯s attire, which made him look noble. His facial features were also very well- 2/5 Chapter 51 15 FCD M defined; undoubtedly, he was a handsomed. ¡°Mr. and Mrs. Yates, | have been entrusted by Ms. Cas sandra Yates to deliver the two- month amodation and food expenses that she mentioned at the party. It¡¯s a total of 12,000 dors in cash. Additionally, as a gesture of gratitude to your family for taking care of her during these two months, she is offering you a gift of 8,000 dors.¡± The visitor then performed a formal and courteous bow, adhering to the etiquette of a refined gentleman. Benjamin was annoyed by the man¡¯s businesslike tone. ¡°Nonsense! She¡¯s our daughter. How dare she talk about cutting ties with us? Tell her to get her as s back here!¡± Benjamin roared, his face contorted with anger as he nced at the 20,000 dors in cash held by the visitor. He perceived that as a tant insult. The man maintained a polite smile. ¡°As far as | know, your family has not admitted Ms. Cas sandra Yates¡¯ identity, so how can she be considered your daughter?¡± He continued, ¡°ording to her, during her two-month stay in the Yates residence, you and Mrs. Yates never gave her a single cent of allowance, so she didn¡¯t have any additional expenses. Most of her meals consisted of leftovers from the help, and she was never served at the main dining table. That means the quality of food she had here wasn¡¯t great. As for amodation, she stayed in a storeroom that was less than 100. square feet, but it was, at least, a sheltered ce. Therefore, Ms. Cas sandra Yates is using the market standard of three-star hotels for her calction-120 dors per day for amodation and 80 dors per day for food. | believe it is a reasonable amount.¡± The visitor ced the 20,000 dors in cash on the coffee table in front of them and turned around to leave. However, he suddenly thought of something and looked back at the Yates family. ¡°Lastly, Ms. Cas sandra Yates has a lot of people to love her. Since you guys don¡¯t care about her, many others would love to do your jobs. Just make sure you don¡¯t regret itin the future.¡± After saying that, he left straightaway.N?velDrama.Org owns this text. Benjamin was so furious that he swept the 20,000 dors on the coffee table to the ground, and Leonardo¡¯s eyes burned with anger. ¡°That darn girl! How dare she humiliate our family with money? Does she think the Yates residence is some ce she cane and go as she pleases?¡¯ they thought. ¡°Cas sandra is from the countryside. How could she have 20,000 dors? Could it be that... | heard from my ssmates that there are some people in society who, for money, would...¡± Chapter 5 OTE Yulissa fell silent, her words left unfinished, but the presumptuous men of the Yates family had already started their spections in their minds. ¡®Cas sandra is truly a disgrace! How could she do those distasteful things out there? When shees back, we must teach her a lesson!¡¯ they vowed to themselves. In the hospital, Jeremiah skillfully bandaged Cas sandra¡¯s wound and even topped it off meticulously with a big bow. ¡°All done. Avoid exposing it to cold water for a few days,¡± Jeremiah instructed. ¡°You don¡¯t have to tell me that.¡± Cas sandra rolled her eyes. This was routine for Cas sandra. It was unnecessary for him to remind her. ¡®But can | take off the bow? It really affects my image greatly, she grumbled inwardly. ¡°Where are you going to stay?¡± he asked. Cas sandra had several properties registered under her name. If they continued to remain vacant, they would soon be covered in layers of dust. ¡®Once she decides where to stay, I''ll go over to enjoy free meals!¡¯ thought Jeremiah. ¡°Springmount Townhouse, | guess,¡± she said. Springmount Townhouse was conveniently located downtown, close to her school. Cas sandra, who was just 18, had already acquired a doctorate degree from various top universities under the alias ine. However, after reuniting with the Yates family, she willinglyplied with their arrangements and enrolled in an elite high school as a Grade 12 student. In the previous life, after the SAT results were released, Yulissa didn¡¯t make it. On the contrary, Cas sandra became the top scorer in the city of Drieso with a score of 1574. But what did Yulissa do? Yulissa cried, ming Cas sandra¡¯s existence for her poor performance in the exams. She pleaded for help from their brothers, saying she didn¡¯t wanna miss the opportunity to go to college. Afterward, they let Yulissa take Cas sandra¡¯s ce and enroll at Juset University with a full schrship. In this new life, Cas sandra was determined to regain the honor that Yulissa had stolen. from her. ¡®Yulissa Yates, just wait and see what | have in store for you this lifetime!¡¯ swore Cas sandra resolutely. Chapter 6 Chapter 6 Before long, Jeremiah had Springmount Townhouse cleaned up. The appliances and furniture had been reced with new ones, and the house¡¯s interior had been redone to suit Cas sandra¡¯s preferences. After Cas sandra moved in, she realized that a so-called home was merely a ce to say. There was no difference where she stayed. She now understood that one shouldn''t desire things that didn¡¯t belong to them, even when it came to family ties. It was pretty good to be alone, actually. The world was so big, and Cas sandra was determined to live a fantastic life, even by herself. On Monday, she went to school as scheduled. It was then she remembered that the fee for elite schools cost 100 thousand dors a month. Ha! To think the Yates family was willing to spend 200 thousand dors on me too, she sneered inwardly. There was still a month and a half before the SAT. Cas sandra told Jeremiah to pay all the remaining fees and also changed her emergency contact to Hugo Gardner. After all, Jeremiah was only a year older than Cas sandra, and a 19-year-old boy was not qualified to be the emergency contact of an 18-year-old girl. He himself would need an emergency contact. ¡°Jeremiah, get someone to send 200 thousand dors of these two months of school fees to the Yates residence. | don¡¯t want to owe them a penny. After instructing Jeremiah, Cas sandra sent him away. They were in a school, so it wasn¡¯t suitable for an outsider like him to stay too long. In the meantime, Cas sandra returned to the familiar ssroom. Her seat was in the corner near thest window/ a spot that Yulissa had ¡°thoughtfully arranged for her. She was wearing a in T-shirt, jacket, and jeans as usual. But they were all brand new. When Jeremiah furnished her room, he also filled up the wardrobe. 11:19 Fri, 16 Feb Mu Chapter 6 D 7 There were plenty of dresses and skirts, but they were not as convenient to wear as jeans. Yulissa came to school early in the morning. Yesterday was her 18th birthday celebration, but it ended unhappily. To save face, she arrived early and prepared gifts and cakes that she had ordered for everyone in the ss. Therefore, everyone forgot what happened yesterday and began ming Cas sandra. 70 ¡°Don''t say that. I¡¯m sure Cas sandra didn¡¯t mean it. She... just wants to be the Yates family¡¯s child, too. | understand that.¡± Yulissa¡¯s empathy made more people stand up for her. Coincidentally, this was the moment Cas sandra entered the ssroom, so she heard what Yulissa said.N?velDrama.Org owns this text. Words failed Cas sandra right then. She swept her gaze over the crowd, walked straight to her seat, and put her books on the desk. Then, she took a nap. Having beenpletely ignored by Cas sandra, Yulissa gritted her teeth in fury. She walked up to Cas sandra and said tenderly, ¡°Cas sandra, why did you leave yesterday? You went a little too far. Let''s go home together after school. Once you apologize to Dad, Mom, and our brothers, they won¡¯t be angry with you anymore. Okay?¡± ¡®Look how considerate | am toward you. If you don¡¯t ept it, it''ll disy your ingratitude,¡¯ she thought. However, Cas sandra remained silent. ¡°Cas sandra?¡± Yulissa tried again. There remained no response from Cas sandra. Feeling rather embarrassed, Yulissa flushed with difiture as if she had suffered great humiliation. Of course, there would always be people falling for her act and standing up perceived injustice. for A boy mmed his desk and roared, ¡°Cas sandra Yates, enough is enough! Yulissa has been so considerate toward you. What¡¯s with your attitude?¡± Chapter 6 Yet, Cas sandra still remained silent. At this moment, the ss bell rang. It was time for physics ss. As the physics teacher, Patrick Zepp, entered the ssroom, the students ceased has sling Cas sandra and returned to their respective seats. Meanwhile, Cas sandra didn¡¯t lift her head throughout the entiremotion. n ¡°The results of yesterday¡¯s mock test havee out. When | read your name, pleasee forward to collect your paper.¡± Patrick was immensely pleased with the results of this mock test. ¡®If Yulissa maintains her current grade, she will have a high chance of enrolling at Juset University. ¡°Cas sandra, on the other hand, is a hopeless case despite being from the Yates family. too,¡¯ he mused. ¡°Samuel Grayson, 230 marks.¡± Seemingly having anticipated his grade, Samuel went to the podium to collect his paper. ¡°Keep it up,¡± Patrick encouraged. He continued reading out, ¡°Yulissa Yates, 215 marks.¡± Yulissa walked to the podium elegantly to collect her paper. ¡°Thank you, Mr. Zepp.¡± Patrick nodded with satisfaction. ¡°Good job. Keep it up.¡± ¡°J Xenos, 213 marks. ¡°Zachary Linhart, 209 marks. ¡°Peter Zabel, 203 marks.¡± Thest paper belonged to Cas sandra. Patrick nced at the score and frowned with discontent. He skimmed through the paper and discovered that she had filled in all the nks but somehow managed to avoid all the correct answers. Most importantly, she scored full marks in thest major question, earning her 32 marks. Even the top student, Samuel, made a mistake in this question and had marks Fri, 16 Feb m¡ª Chapter 6 deducted. ¡°Cas sandra Yates, 32 marks.¡± The whole ss burst intoughter. ¡®How embarrassing. She only scored 32 marks on the test,¡¯ they thought.. Yulissa was also amused, thinking, ¡®Cas sandra doesn¡¯t let me down.¡± 3|= 70% n Cas sandra!¡± Cas sandra¡¯s deskmate, who was also an academic underachiever, gave her a nudge. Finally, Cas sandra woke up after being disturbed. She immediately saw Patrick staring at her angrily. ¡°Mr. Zepp. Cas sandra stood up casually. ¡°You only scored 32 marks. How dare you still have the nerve to sleep? Don¡¯t you realize how many days are left until the SAT? Are you even taking it seriously?¡± Patrick was furious. He didn¡¯t understand how there could be such a carefree student who didn¡¯t care about studying at all. However, Patrick forgot that he was teaching in an elite school. The grades of these children, regardless of being good or bad, would lead to a simr oue. Eventually, they would all go home and inherit their family businesses. Not many would want to go out and work their way up on their own. This group of people had their parents to rely on for their future, so naturally, they didn¡¯t need to take the SAT seriously. ¡°| know. The 32 marks are probably from thest question. The rest of the answers were all incorrect,¡± Cas sandra said unapologetically. Patrick was about to scold her for her terrible attitude towards studying when he suddenly realized something was off. ¡®Something''s not right. ¡®She knows her answers are wrong and is certain about it. Does that mean she knows the correct answers? ¡®No, no way. 4/5 5/5 Fri, 16 Feb Chapter 61 6 ¡®If she knew the correct answers, why didn¡¯t she answer the test correctly? ¡°There¡¯s no way she did it on purpose, right?¡¯ he pondered. Patrick suppressed his doubts and didn¡¯t say anything, merely asking Cas sandra toe forward to collect her paper. Then, he began his lesson. Since this ss was an honors ss, at least half of the students could potentially enroll at Juset University. Therefore, the teachers taught with great dedication. At this critical period, they all brought out their sets of practice questions for the students to work on. Patrick wrote a challenging question on the whiteboard, which instantly caught Samuel¡¯s interest. Samuel began to solve it while others looked at the question in bafflement. The question seemed unfamiliar to them, and they werepletely bewildered about how to solve it. Yulissa was also a little at a loss. She didn¡¯t know how to solve this problem, but she still pretended to understand it and busied herself with writing a solution. Only Cas sandra tucked the test paper she collected under her arm and started sleeping again. Patrick took a deep breath. ¡®Calm down, calm down. | can¡¯t punish these kids,¡¯ he reminded himself me ntally. He walked up to Cas sandra and tapped the table to wake her up. ¡°You, go to the board and solve this problem.¡± Cas sandra nced sleepily at the board and was dumbfounded. ¡®Is this an elementary school problem or what? He actually wants me to solve it?¡¯ she thought incredulously. Cas sandra didn¡¯t hide her contempt as she walked confidently to the podium. ff SEND GIFT 0 Chapter 7 Chapter 7 Cas sandra walked up to the podium, picked up the whiteboard marker, and contemted for a moment. The students below the podium were eagerly waiting to watch her make a fool of herself, as they didn¡¯t believe an academic underachiever like her could solve such a problem. But what followed left them utterly astounded. Cas sandra confidently wrote the physics form on the whiteboard, disying mastery. In no time, she had the answer, but she didn¡¯t stop there. Instead, she continued writing and borating on the solution. Five minutester, Cas sandra frowned and tossed the marker onto the desk. The board couldn''t amodate all her solutions. She had already written four variations, but two more remained. Seeing this, Patrick could no longer remainposed. It should be noted that this question was far beyond the sybus. Even though there were standard answers, they would only provide one solution. It had taken Patrick himself a long time to figure out an alternative approach. Yet, Cas sandra actually wrote four solutions within five minutes. To him, it was surreal. This question was created by Professor Calvin Warwick, a renowned physicist in Clusia, and it had never appeared on any test, so there was no way Cas sandra had seen it in advance. Samuel was astonished as he couldn¡¯t evene up with one solution. In fact, his attempted solution was way off base. His instinct told him that Cas sandra¡¯s solutions were correct. Unable to contain his excitement, Patrick quickly strode to the podium and stood in front of Cas sandra, saying in an exceedingly excited tone, ¡°Cas sandra, can you tell me how you came up with your second and fourth solutions?¡± 11:20 Fri, 16 Feb Mu Chapter 7 He no longer cared to maintain his persona as a teacher. Patrick was a physics enthusiast filled with passion for the subject. He had never expected to find such a genius among his students. Cas sandra was at a loss for words.

On the other hand, Yulissa, despite her resentment, had to force a smile on her face. ¡®Darn it! did Cas sandra be so brilliant? when ¡®Did she secretly take tutoring sses? ¡®No way. It would be futile no matter how many sses she took with her intellect, she ruminated. ¡°There are two other solutions, but the board has no more room left to fit. If you want, I''ll find time to write them for you, Mr. Zepp.¡± ¡®Now, can | go back to my seat?¡¯ Cas sandra thought as she looked at her desk. She was a little drowsy and wanted to continue her nap. ¡°Okay! Sure! No problem! How about you write them for me now?¡± Originally, Patrick. wanted to say that she could do it at any time. But he truly couldn¡¯t wait any longer. He wanted to study the new solutions right this instant and marvel at the brilliance of this student''s mind, The conversation between Ca s sandra and Patrick was like an invisible p to the faces. of all the students present. They couldn¡¯t fathom how an academic underachiever who scored only 32 marks on 2/5 1:20 Fri. 16 Feb mu Chapter 7 her test could solve such a challenging physics problem. EAR:70%, Helplessly, Cas sandra returned to her seat and was about to write the other two solutions for the teacher when she realized that she didn¡¯t have a notebook or memo pad. Left with no other option, she started writing the solutions on her 32-mark test paper. When Patrick received the paper, he looked at the eye-catching score of 32 and was momentarily speechless. He thought Cas sandra was being somewhat rebellious. Nevertheless, students who excelled in their studies often enjoyed certain privileges granted by teachers. In the subsequent period, Patrick didn¡¯t disturb Cas sandra at all, showing no concern. about her sleeping in ss or shifting her sleeping posture when her arm grew numb. When the ss was over, he photographed the solutions on the board and even folded the 32-mark test paper properly to take it with him. Samuel initially nned to ask Cas s andra about the remaining two solutions after ss, but Yulissa went to Cas sandra first. ¡°Cas sandra, how are you so amazing? Have you been attending private tuition sses? Did the tutor go over this question with you in advance? Anyway, I¡¯m genuinely happy for you. We still have one and a half months until the SAT. You must work hard to get into a good university and live up to Dad and Mom¡¯s expectations.¡± These words made the other students doubt their original assumptions about Cas sandra being a secret genius. ¡®So, Cas sandra only knows about this question because she encountered it during her secret tuition ss? Then why is she acting so proud?¡¯ they thought. ¡°Cas sandra, can you introduce me to the physics teacher tutoring you? | want to join the lessons too,¡± Yulissa said, trying to present herself as motivated, humble, and understanding. Her actions once again left a favorable impression on their ssmates. Cas sandra was beyond annoyed by Yulissa¡¯s chatter.

However, he kept a low profile, so no one knew his real identity. Yulissa stumbled upon this information when she overheard the conversation between Samuel and the Grayson family¡¯s butler while he was delivering clothes to Samuel. ¡°Oh, | thought he was your boyfriend, considering how hard he¡¯s defending you.¡± Cas sandra shrugged, unfazed. ¡°Turns out, he¡¯s just a backup and a simp, she thought.

Meanwhile, Patrick was overjoyed when he returned to his office. He immediately invited other physics teachers toe and read Cas sandra¡¯s solutions together. The physics teachers believed Cas sandra was a total genius. If she could represent the school in a physicspetition, she would absolutely win a prize and might even secure admission to a university without needing to take the SAT. ¡°Mr. Zepp, who wrote these solutions?

When Cas sandra was transferred to their ss, he was reluctant to ept her because it could potentially lower the grade point average and impact the enrollment rate. Thus, he was trying to find an excuse to put her in another ss. But just now, Patrick said Cas sandra had suddenly changed. ¡®lll have to test Cas sandra in sster, he thought. However, when he entered the ssroom, he saw that Cas sandra was sound asleep. Today, the other teachers reported that Cas sandra slept during their sses, affecting their teaching efficiency. ¡®| never expected this to be true, thought the teacher. ¡°Ahem! It¡¯s time for ss. The math teacher, Connor Zeller, spoke loudly. The students all stood up to greet the teacher, but Cas sandra was still asleep. Cas sandra also found it very strange. In the past, she rarely felt drowsy, but ever since leaving the Yates residence, she always felt the urge to sleep. ¡°Why is that girl sleeping?¡± Connor asked. Cas sandra¡¯s deskmate patted her to wake her up. Cas sandra groggily opened her eyes and saw the whole ss standing. She didn¡¯t know why, but she followed suit. Only then did Connor look away and signal for the whole ss to take their seats. ¡°Some of you may assume that your performance in certain teachers¡¯ sses guarantees sess on the SAT.

Since you insist on staying here, | can at least make sure you have a bnced diet.¡± Hugo felt sorry that Cas sandra had left the Yates residence, but he also knew that the Yates family didn¡¯t deserve a daughter as good as her. ¡®It''s a good thing Cas sandra left the Yates family. They don¡¯t care about her, but there are other people who do,¡¯ mused Hugo. ¡°Hugo, don¡¯t call me Boss. Just call me by my name.¡± Being called ¡°Boss¡± made her feel much older. Moreover, in her previous/life, she had abandoned them for the sake of so-called family love. She was the one who should feel sorry for these people who had been with her for so many years. Luckily, she could make it up to them in this life. 2/5 Fri, 16 Feb M Chapter 8 ¡°Well, then I''ll call you Ms. Yates instead.¡± Hugo was pleased. ¡®She¡¯s getting better and better, he thought. 70% ¡°By the way, Ms. Yates, the Zelinski family has ced an order on the dark web to invite Faye Quirke, the miracle doctor, to come out of seclusion and save someone.¡± Hugo took the opportunity to ask if Ca s sandra wanted to return to her previous profession. ¡°The Zelinski family?¡± Cas sandra asked. There was only one Zelinski family in Drieso, and that was Keh¡¯s family. Cas sandra wondered if Keh was the one who ced the order. In her previous life, she witnessed him avenging her, so she couldn¡¯t help but feel grateful. ¡°Yes,¡± Hugo said and thought, ¡®It¡¯s the Zelinski family that you¡¯re thinking of ¡°Send me the information. I''ll take a look first.¡± Cas sandra didn¡¯t ept the order immediately. It would be embarrassing if she got it wrong. ¡°Understood,¡± Hugo replied. Cas sandra carried the lunch box back to school. She opened the lunch boxyer byyer, revealing orange chicken, cod, braised beef, steamed broli, and bone broth.. These were all homemade dishes. They may not have been Cas sandra¡¯s favorites, but she didn¡¯t dislike them either. Moreover, it had been months since shest enjoyed Hugo¡¯s cooking, and she missed it. Ata nce, she could tell that this was obviously prepared by Hugo because most people could not make steamed broli the way he did. At her seat, Cas sandra savored the delicious food. By the time Yulissa and others returned, she had finished eating and put away the lunch box. This afternoon, Yulissa didn¡¯t cause any trouble in front of Cas sandra. Since Cas sandra mentioned that Samuel was Yulissa¡¯s boyfriend, Yulissa dared not to speak anymore. Yulissa was afraid that every word she said would lead to a bigger misunderstanding. 11:20 Fri, 16 Feb Mu Chapter 8This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org. ¡®Humph, Cas sandra, just you wait! I¡¯llin to our parents and brothers tonight. Let''s see if they''ll spare you!¡¯ Yulissa eximed inwardly. After school in the evening, Hugo was already waiting at the entrance. Cas sandra greeted him. ¡°Hugo, let''s go.¡± ¡°Cas sandra, who is the man next to you?¡± Yulissa¡¯s voice came from behind. However, Cas sandra did not intend to pay her any attention. Yulissa gritted her teeth and walked quickly to Cas sandra. 70% ¡°Cas sandra, even if you have issues with our family, you can¡¯t just associate with anyone... This man looks suspicious at first nce. How can you walk with him, Cas sandra? Don¡¯t tell me that you¡¯ve been staying at his house since you ran away from home a few days ago?¡± Yulissa continued, ¡°Cas sandra, we''re family. Dad, Mom, our brothers, and | would never harm you. If you think I¡¯m in your way, then I''ll go back, pack my things, and move out now. | just want you toe home, okay? Dad and Mom are waiting for you at home.¡± Yulissa burst into tears, which moved the students and parents watching outside the school. ¡°Cas sandra, are you bullying Lisa again? Apologize to her right away!¡± It was Raymond. who spoke this time. He scolded Cas sandra even before he walked close to them. Cas sandra was speechless. ¡®If he can¡¯t see things clearly, then he should donate his eyes to people in need,¡¯ she thought. ¡°I''m talking to you. Don¡¯t you know how to apologize?¡± Raymond demanded in ant overbearing tone. ¡®I''m going to make sure Cas sandra apologizes to Yulissa today. Since her return to the Yates family, she has been relentlessly targeting Yulissa. | never expected this behavior to continue at school too! ¡®If | hadn¡¯te across them today, Yulissa would have suffered a lot!¡¯ thought Raymond angrily. ¡°Excuse me, Mr. Raymond Yates, what did | do to make you so angry?¡± Cas sandra rolled Fri, 16 Feb Chapter 8 her eyes in disgust. ¡°You bullied Lisa. Do | need to remind you of what you¡¯ve done wrong?¡± Raymond subconsciously assumed that Cas sandra was bullying Yulissa again. As an older brother, he couldn¡¯t stand to see his sister being bullied. ¡°Mr. Raymond Yates, did | hit or insult Ms. Yulissa Yates? Did | destroy her homework or pull her hair? Did you see any of that happening?¡± Cas sandra looked cold and serious. ¡°You... You''ve learned to talk back. Go home and reflect on your actions!¡± Raymond reached out to grab Cas sandra¡¯s hand, but he didn¡¯t expect her to nimbly dodge hist attempt. ¡°Do you have selective amnesia? I¡¯ve already made it clear that | have nothing to do with the Yates family. Why are you still approaching me?¡± ¡°Cas sandra, is it because of this man that you cut ties with the Yates family? Cas sandra, you can¡¯t do this. He is our father¡¯s age. How could you abandon our family for him?¡± Yulissa said with a pained expression. Yulissa was really good at acting. If Cas sandra wasn¡¯t personally involved, she may have believed Yulissa¡¯s words. Hugo was dumbfounded. He couldn''t tell if Yulissa was insulting Cas sandra or trying to tter him. Hf Chapter 9 Chapter 9 ¡°Please watch your mouth, Miss. I¡¯m here just to pick up Ms. Cas sandra Yates after school. Is there a problem? I¡¯m nothing but a driver.¡± Hugo looked unhappy. ¡®It seems like any random nobody dares to provoke Ms. Cas sandra Yates nowadays,¡± Hugo mused. ¡°Mister, just let my sister go. She is only 18 years old. You are not suitable for her. Don¡¯t ruin her!¡± Yulissa stood in front of Hugo and pleaded as if she was the one who was being humiliated. Hugo was speechless and wondered if Yulissa even understood Clusian, her mother tongue. ¡°What? The girl looks sprightly. | didn¡¯t expect her to be a mistress.¡± ¡°That man is about the age of her father.¡± ¡°Young people nowadays are really wild.¡± ¡°Look at the girl¡¯s sister. She¡¯s really considerate and cares about the girl.¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. Look at that girl. She looks impatient and even seems to hate her sister. There¡¯s so much drama in a rich family!¡± ¡°Hey! What''s wrong with you guys? Isn¡¯t the younger sister the one talking all the time? Did she give the girl a chance to talk?¡± ¡°The younger sister has covered all bases. What else does the girl have left to say?¡± ¡°Is it the younger sister¡¯s fault? The girl has gone astray. What''s wrong with her sister offering a few pieces of advice? The girl doesn¡¯t know how to be grateful, but as a bystander, wouldn¡¯t you understand the situation?¡± The onlookers were happy to fan the mes. ¡°Hugo, let¡¯s go. Let''s not waste our time on this kind of person.¡± Cas sandra ignored Yulissa and Raymond without even raising her eyelids. ¡°Cas sandra! Don¡¯t push your luck. You¡¯reing home with me!¡± Raymond had the worst temper and liked to use his status to pressure people, which disgusted Cas sandra. The Yates family owed her a life, and she was determined to get it back. ¡°It''s sad that you''re already suffering from hearing loss at such a young age. You can¡¯t understand what people are saying, Mr. Raymond Yates,¡± said Cas sandra sarcastically. 8.70% Chapter 9 Having said that, she walked to the car. Hugo picked her up in a Bentley Grand Prix, one of only 10 cars in the world. Hugo had no choice. It was the most unostentatious car he could find in the garage. Each of Cas sandra¡¯s cars was worth millions of dors, and even her motorcycle was valued at around 2 million dors after modifications were made. Raymond wanted to rush up and say something, but the driver had already started to drive, leaving him with nothing but exhaust fumes. Yulissa was furious, but she still pretended to care about Cas sandra. ¡°Ray, did Cas sandra make some friends we don¡¯t know? That car... It doesn¡¯t look cheap. Is she... Ray, can you go and find her? It¡¯s dangerous out there, and she¡¯s a girl!¡± Yulissa grabbed Raymond''s hand and said pleadingly. ¡°Lisa, ignore her. I''ll take you home first. Just leave this to me, okay?¡± Raymond¡¯s tone suddenly changed, turning very patient and gentle. ¡°You mean it?¡± ¡°Yes, I''ll take care of it.¡± Raymond pinched Yulissa¡¯s cheek and said softly, ¡°You must be tired of studying all day. How about | take you to the racing club tonight?¡± ¡°Are youpeting tonight? | want to go and cheer for you!¡± Raymond was a racer and boxer. The team was established by the Zelinski family, and he was the leader. Yulissa often watched Raymond practice andpete, and almost everyone of the team knew her. They regarded Yulissa as Lady Luck because whenever she was around, Raymond. would always win. In the car, Hugo eximed, ¡°Ms. Yates, the Yates family has gone too far! How dare they spread rumors!¡± The more Hugo thought about it, the angrier he became. He didn¡¯t really care about his image at all, as he was aged. The youngdy of the Yates. family was very skilled at telling tall tales. ¡®How dare Yulissa scandalize Cas sandra? | think the Yates family deserves to be taught a lesson. Well, I¡¯ll put them on the cklist of Whitecrane Hall once we get home. In the future, all the medicines in Whitecrane Hall will not be sold to the Yates family! They don¡¯t deserve any of it!¡¯ thought Hugo decisively. Whitecrane Hallbined traditional and modern medicine with its primary focus on 215 Chapter 9 traditional medicine. Hugo was the person in charge. However, anyone familiar with Whitecrane Hall knew that Faye, the miracle doctor, was the true owner who worked behind the scenes. Once someone was cklisted by Whitecrane Hall, no matter how difficult the diseases or dire the situation of his family, they could not receive treatment from the miracle doctor, even if they were willing to spend all their money. ¡°They''re nearing their ends and won''t be able to thrive for long. Let them say what they want.¡± Cas sandra could not be bothered by this. She no longer cared about anything but the hatred she had. She was going to break the pride of the Yates family bit by bit and pay them back for all the grievances she had suffered at their hands. ¡°Yes.¡± Hugo knew that Cas sandra was plotting something big.This material belongs to N?velDrama.Org. ¡°By the way, Ms. Yates, the one who ced the order on the dark web is the current head of the Zelinski family, Keh Zelinski. Jeremiah has conducted an investigation and found that Keh is trying to save one of his friends.¡± He mentioned the matter to Cas sandra at noon and investigated it as soon as he went. back. The Zelinski family didn¡¯t conceal their information on the dark web. Faye ab ided by one rule. She was not going to save a heinous circumstances.. person under any So, she always checked out the patients¡¯ backgrounds before rescuing them. To her, it weren¡¯t about wealth or poverty, but about right and wrong. And she was the one to decide who was in the wrong. Cas sandra fell silent. It was him. She wondered who would make him go through all the effort and trouble, even asking for help on the dark web. ¡°| will take the case. The treatment is scheduled at three in the afternoon on Saturday.¡± As for why a case taken on/Monday could only be conducted on Saturday, that was because the miracle doctor still had sses to attend. ¡°About the consultation fee... Chapter 9 The consultation fee offered by the Zelinski family was 1.2 billion dors and Hugo didn¡¯t know whether Cas sandra was satisfied or not. ¡°I''ll take whatever amount the Zelinski family is paying.¡± This was a token of appreciation for him collecting her body in her previous life. She also recalled the bodyguard of the Yates family who dug a hole andid her to rest, protecting her from being eaten by the wolves in her previous life. Cas sandra was thinking of poaching him from the Yates familyter when she had the chance. ¡®Good people deserve good rewards and not to suffer in the Yates family, thought Ca s sandra. ¡°Okay, I''ll reply to the Zelinski familyter.¡± Hugo still felt that something was off. When Cas sandra mentioned she was going to take a break previously, she stated that she was not going to ept any requests. Today was no different. When she heard that someone had asked for the miracle doctor to treat a patient, Cas sandra wanted to say no at first. However, she hesitated when she heard that it was from the Zelinski family. Has she decided to make aeback in the medical field? If that¡¯s the case, it would be great, thought Hugo. ¡°I need to go out tonight. Hugo, go to rest,¡± said Cas sandra. ¡°Do you have something to attend to, Ms. Yates?¡± ¡°Well, there¡¯s a game tonight.¡± Cas sandra was bothered by it. Although Jeremiah was usually gentle and elegant, he was extremely obsessed with racing, but he didn¡¯t join any teams and liked to race by himself. Jeremiah had been begging her for a long time to attend tonight''s race. Finally, she relented and decided to go and have a look. If anything, she could consider it as a leisure activity. Cas sandra remembered that at this time in her previous life, Raymond and Yulissa came home with a trophy for car racing at night. She even praised it enviously, but Chapter 9 Raymond just snorted in disdain at herpliment. She also remembered that Jeremiah¡¯s hand had been broken in a car ident at that time because of the race. She didn¡¯t offer him any treatment at that time as she had quit, and he had lost contact with her. Hence, even though his hand was cured, theplication caused him to have no chance of racing for the remainder of his life. In this life, she could not let it happen again. Hugo wondered, ¡®What kind of game happens at night? Is it racing?¡± ¡°Ms. Yates, are you going racing?¡± Hugo asked uncertainly. ¡®| have to deal with Jeremiah after hees back. How dare he take Ms. Yates out racing? What if she gets hurt?¡¯ Hugo mused. f& Chapter 10 Chapter 10 Acrowd gathered along the winding road at the outskirts of Drieso. When Cas sandra arrived, Yulissa and Raymond were already there. Jeremiah¡¯s face lit up at the sight of Cas sandra. ¡®She finally came!¡¯ he thought.. ¡°ine, you''re finally here!¡± Jeremiah hurriedly pulled her towards his team. Although Jeremiah usually raced solo, tonight he had formed his own team. Ironically, his opponent turned out to be Raymond and his team. He thought, ¡°This is the perfect opportunity to avenge ine. All the siblings in the Yates family are bad people! The racers seemed self-assured, thinking they looked cool in their trendy leather. jackets. While Cas sandra also enjoyed wearing fashionable clothes, she couldn¡¯t help but feel disdain for those people and their outfits. Yulissa, dressed in an elegant dress, stood out from the crowd. Yet, Raymond¡¯s team thought she dressed like this to cheer Raymond on. ¡°Has the race started yet?¡± Cas sandra asked casually. She came here mainly to watch the race and intended to leave after Jeremiah¡¯s turn was over. ¡°Not yet!¡± Jeremiah replied. ¡°Okay,¡± Ca s sandra fell silent, leaning against the car and closing her eyes to rest. Raymond nced at Jeremiah¡¯s team and frowned, narrowing his gaze. His expression suddenly turned gloomy. ¡®Cas sandra? Why is she here? Did shee all the way here just to watch me race? And she still had the audacity to say that she had cut ties with the family. She¡¯s certainly putting in a lot of effort to get my attention, he mused. Raymond insisted that if Cas sandra wanted his forgiveness, she had to apologize to Yulissa first. He felt that as an elder brother, he should give his younger sister a way out and relieve her from embarrassment, even though this sister of his was nothing like he had. imagined. 1/4 70% Chapter 10 Thus, he approached Cas sandra, considering himself a kind and generous brother for doing sq. Seeing Raymond walk away, Yulissa was a little confused, so she followed him. She said. ¡°Ray, did you see Cas sandra? Let¡¯s bring her to our team. | heard the opposing team members are really mean. We can¡¯t let her be deceived anymore.¡± Hearing that, Raymond thought, ¡®Look at Yulissa! She¡¯s so thoughtful. Why can¡¯t Cas sandra appreciate that? Just as | expected from someone who grew up in the countryside. She has no manners at all!! When Raymond and Yulissa approached Cas sandra, Jeremiah was disturbing her, attempting to wake her up. ¡°Why is she always so sleepy? How can she fall asleep at such an exciting moment?¡± Jeremiah wondered. ¡°My dear sister, there you are! Ray¡¯s team is on the other side. Let¡¯s go over there!¡± Yulissa spoke up. Cas sandra didn¡¯t respond. ¡°Miss, you shouldn¡¯t randomly call other people your sister,¡± said Jeremiah. Of course, he was aware of ine and Yulissa¡¯s rtionship. However, since ine didn¡¯t acknowledge Yulissa as her sister, he saw no reason to be polite to her either. ¡®People like her need to be dealt with immediately!¡± ¡°|... She¡¯s my elder sister.¡± Yulissa¡¯s eyes filled with tears as she aggrievedly said, ¡°Cas sandra, please don¡¯t ignore me, okay? I''ll move out right away. I¡¯m willing to do anything as long as you''re happy.¡± Yulissa didn¡¯t give Cas sandra a chance to speak and continued, ¡°Did youe here to watch Ray¡¯s race tonight? Let¡¯s go to his team together, okay? After the race, we can go home together. I¡¯ll move out whenever it makes you happy!¡± Cas sandra still remained silent. ¡°Cas sandra, you''re so arrogant! Lisa is talking to you! How dare you ignore her! Apologize to her immediately!¡± Raymond couldn¡¯t bear to see anyone cold-shouldering his beloved Yulissa, not even his own sister. Moreover, he didn¡¯t consider Cas s andra his sister at all. ¡°Are you two putting on a show for us here? Quite an impressive performance!¡± Cas sandra casually opened her eyes, her gaze filled with indifference. Her heart was filled with hatred now. It wouldn¡¯t feel pain. 10% Chapter 10 ¡°Mr. Raymond Yates, you''vee to the wrong ce if you¡¯re seeking attention. This isn¡¯t your team. No one will listen to you rant here,¡± Cas sandra kindly reminded him. She thought, ¡®What was he even thinking,ing to another team¡¯s area to find me?¡± ¡°You,e with me. Behave yourself and stay right there. We''ll go home together after | finish the race,¡± Raymond ordered. He fumed inwardly, ¡®She should go back and apologize to Mom, Dad, and Lisa. Why is it uneptable for her to live in the storeroom? It¡¯s still better than living in a kennel! Who does she think she is? How dare she be so picky? ¡°Mr. Raymond Yates, who do you think you are to order me around? Why should | listen to you?¡± Cas sandra found Raymond¡¯s haughty mannerism amusing. ¡°Cas sandra, I¡¯m your elder brother!¡± Raymond shouted. The few people behind Jeremiah were taken aback for a moment, wondering, ¡®So, the person Mr. Lawson found is the younger sister of the opposing team¡¯s leader? Is this a joke?¡± ¡°Hah. My brother? Who are you even? Aren''t you Yulissa¡¯s elder brother? What¡¯s wrong with you guys, calling me your sister? Don¡¯t you think you''re being ridiculous?¡± Cas sandra couldn¡¯t help but mock them sarcastically. ¡®Haha. Elder brother?¡¯ she snickered inwardly. If it was two months ago, she would have done anything for Raymond, even sacrificing her own life, just to make him acknowledge her as his sister. However, the words ¡°I¡¯m your elder brother¡± sounded soughable and ironic now. ¡°Don''t be so foolish. I¡¯m giving you a way out, so just ept it. Why are you putting on airs? Do you think you can ever repay what you owe the Yates family?¡± Raymond said self-righteously. He subconsciously believed Cas sandra owed a debt of gratitude to the Yates family. ¡°We brought her back to Drieso from the countryside, gave her the status of the eldest daughter of the Yates family, and provided her the opportunity to attend an elite school. What more is she desiring?¡¯ ¡°Didn''t | already repay what | owed your family? Or do you think 20,000 dors is too little?¡± Cas sandra retorted. ¡°Hmph, do you think 20,000 dors is enough topensate for everything the Yates. family did to support you?¡± Raymond snorted as if he had just heard a ridiculous joke. ¡°Support me? What did you guys do to support me? Sending me to an elite school?¡± a Fri, 16 Feb Chapter 10 Cas sandra smiled. ¡°Didn''t all of you say that | should go to school to keep Yulissapany? You forced me to attend the school even when | refused. | can¡¯t believe you call that support.¡± ¡°Oh...¡± Cas sandra¡¯s expression suddenly indicated realization. ¡°So you want me to pay the tuition fees, huh? No problem. The tuition fee for two months was 200 thousand dors, and the money will be sent to the Yates family soon. Then we''ll be even, right?¡± She added, ¡°If you wanna include the interest, that¡¯s fine too. Let''s set the interest rate high. How about 5%? I''ll give you the interest of a whole year. It will be a total of 10,000 dors. You will be getting more than you deserve.¡± Raymond''s face flushed with anger. He cursed in his mind, ¡®Da mn Cas sandra! | can¡¯t believe she¡¯s humiliating me with money!¡¯ ¡°Cas sandra, how could you say something like that? Dad and Mom will be very happy to see you back. All our brothers also treat you as their sister. You hurt them deeply when you ran away from home! Just listen to us ande back home, okay?¡± Yulissa said. Her tearful voice broke Raymond¡¯s heart. Cas sandra retorted, ¡°Will they be happy? Won''t they feel worried every day, fearing that I''ll bully you? As their biological daughter, | live in a room smaller than 100 square feet, while you, being the adopted daughter, have afortable room on the entire third floor to yourself. Your wardrobe alone is as big as three storeroomsbined. The Yates family sure pampers their biological daughter.¡±This material belongs to N?velDrama.Org. She added coldly, ¡°Treat me as their sister? | AM their sister, ording to what they said, right? If you want to y the victim, go somewhere else. You''re not wee here!¡± Only then did Jeremiah realize that ine had been enduring more than he knew, ¡°Both of you! Get! Lost!¡± he shouted at Raymond and Yulissa. Ha Chapter 11 Chapter 11 ¡°Hmph. Jeremiah, what gives you the right to say that to me?¡± Raymond sneered at Jeremiah. The provocation in his gaze was very obvious. Cas sandra co olly said, ¡°If you want tonight¡¯s race to go off without a hitch, best you leave now. Otherwise, | won¡¯t hesitate to y spoiler.¡± ¡°Ray, let''s head back. The race will begin soon and you need to prepare. Cas sandra won''t be going anywhere for a while. We''ll pick her up after the race.¡± Yulissa urged Raymond.Content rights by N?velDr//ama.Org. Raymond finally gave up on the provocation and went back to his team after muttering a final threat to Cas sandra, ¡°Just you wait.¡± The race would begin soon. In the first round, Jeremiah and Raymond would bepeting with each other. Raymond taunted Jeremiah, saying he was a loser before the race had even started, acting with no manners. ¡°Buckle down and if anything feels off, pull the brakes right away. Got it?¡± Cas sandra advised Jeremiah. She did not know the exact ident that had caused Jeremiah to break his arm in her previous life. However, it must have happened during the race. Since Jeremiah wanted to participate, Cas sandra would just let him go. She would be there for him if something went wrong. ¡°Jeremiah, just racing isn¡¯t thrilling enough. Let''s make this interesting, shall we?¡± Raymond said provocatively. He was bent on teaching Jeremiah and Cas sandra, the perceived traitor, a lesson. ¡°So, how do you want to make it interesting?¡± Jeremiah agreed to go along with Raymond. ¡°How about we each take a female partner along for the ride?¡± Raymond continued, ¡°They''ll sit in the passenger seat. Let¡¯s see who can get to the finish line in the fastest. time. Oh, and your partner can¡¯t show any signs of difort five minutes after getting out of the car. What do you say?¡± Chapter 11 16 Feb Raymond was giddy with the idea of entrusting the race oue to their respective partners. Jeremiah agreed, ¡°Okay. How should | choose my partner?¡± ¡°However you like, replied Raymond. 70% He would choose Yulissa anyway. After all, she had watched so many car races with him and even rode in his car before. She did not show anymon unwarranted reactions. like nausea or fainting but felt thrilled instead. Meanwhile, Raymond knew Jeremiah quite well. Thetter had always been alone. Women were quite the rarity in Jeremiah¡¯s life, much less one who went for a ride in his car. Confidently turning to Yulissa, Raymond proposed, ¡°Yulissa, fancy a thrilling ride with me?¡± Yulissa agreed, with an unmistakably obedient demeanor. ¡°ine, my fate is in your hands.¡± Jeremiah naturally chose Cas sandra. The next second, Cas sandra got into the passenger seat and waited for the race to begin. Bothpeting cars lined up at the start, engines revving in a disy of rivalry. At the drop of the g, they blitzed forward, disappearing into a cloud of dust. The winding road was called by that name because of theplicated terrain and the twists and turns all along the road. Seasoned drivers knew better than to speed on the treacherous bends. But Jeremiah and Raymond, gunning for the finish line, pumped the pedal to the metal. Raymond''s car was ahead, but Jeremiah¡¯s was so close to it that thetter might overtake Raymond at any moment. Raymond used the S-curve tactic, blocking Jeremiah¡¯s advance. The best choice for overtaking cars was on long straights and high-speed curves, with zigzag turns and hairpin corners following in line. When they hit the summit¡¯s second hairpin, Cas sandra sharply swerved to the right and gunned the elerator, sending the car hurling forward. Raymond, who had expected to win, was shocked by that. He could not believe that he was overtaken. 2/5 Fri, 16 Feb M Chapter 11 8.70% It was as if Jeremiah and Cas sandra had this unspoken understanding-Cas sandra wresting control of the wheel and Jeremiah duly handing over the reins. Raymond elerated to catch up but failed. He was even out of his senses in the desire for winning, causing the car to skid sideways. Yulissa screamed in fear. Her scream only unsettled Raymond further. He, in a fit of panic, jerked the steering and sped towards the finish line, heedless of danger. ¡°Ah! Stop! Stop! I¡¯m scared!¡± Yulissa shrieked throughout. Helpless, she started struggling with the steering wheel frantically, throwing Raymond. into shock. The car started drifting unpredictably, and the failed brakes couldn''t stall it. ¡°| don¡¯t want to die! | don¡¯t want to die!¡± Yulissa screamed. With a loud crash and Yulissa¡¯s shriek, the car came to a halt. Blocking their path was Jeremiah¡¯s car. To save their lives, Jeremiah and Cas sandra had risked their own, forcing Raymond''s car to stop. Though they were safe now, Raymond wasn¡¯t as lucky as Yulissa. When she fought for the steering wheel with him, they were very close to each other, and as the car was about to crash, Yulissa pushed him, resulting in his arm getting stuck. As soon as the car ground to a halt, Yulissa flung open the car door and rushed out, screaming for help and shouting that she did not want to die. In her panic, shepletely overlooked her injured brother. Jeremiah and Cas sandra got out of their car and slowly walked to the door of Raymond''s car, which the former kindly helped open. ¡°You lost, Raymond. Both you and your partner. But don¡¯t worry, | won¡¯t kick a man who''s down. Your beloved sister might''ve fled, leaving you stranded, but I¡¯ve called for help. Whether they can salvage your arm... well, that¡¯s fate.¡± Jeremiah had no sympathy for those from the Yates family-they deserved to reap what they''d sowed. ¡®His adored little sister left him immediately when there was danger, Jeremiah thought. Raymond clenched his teeth in pain. He felt that his arm was broken, and he couldn''t do racing or boxing anymore. Chapter II However, what hurt him the most was that his most beloved sister had abandoned him and run off without hesitation. Ironically, the sister he hated most had put her life at risk to save him. Cas sandra looked at all that was happening indifferently. She had figured it out. In Cas sandra¡¯sst life, Raymond had changed thepetition. rulesst minute too, forcing Jeremiah to pick a novice partner. Theck of coordination had cost Jeremiah his arm in the ensuing crash. In this current life, the situation had turned the other way around. Cas sandra thought, ¡®What goes around,es around, right?¡± She nced at Raymond with unfathomable emotion in her eyes. After that, she got in the driver¡¯s seat of her car without looking back. Behind her, Jeremiah scurried into the passenger seat-lest Cas sandra abandon him in the middle. of nowhere. Cas sandra stepped on the elerator, and the car disappeared from the summit. No doubt, the most miserable person would be Raymond. He lost the championship, his sister Yulissa abandoned him, and no one came to ask for his well-being until an ambnce showed up half an hourter and took him to the hospital. When the doctor arrived, Raymond had passed out due to the pain. Fortunately, someone was there to save him. Cas sandra parked the car on the winding road and left by herself. Jeremiah was a little confused as he had no idea why she was angry. Moreover, she even showed such a fiery temper. Back at Springmount Townhouse, Hugo had been waiting for Cas sandra toe home. ¡°Wee back, Ms. Yates. You must be tired. Have a good rest. You have ss tomorrow.¡± He could finally feel relieved to see that she was safe and sound. ¡°Thanks, Hugo. You, too, should turn in soon.¡± With that, Cas sandra returned to her room. She told herself, ¡®Cas sandra, he brought it all upon himself. Raymond reaped what he sowed. None of this would have happened if he hadn¡¯t changed the rules.

His arm has to be fine!¡± pleaded Miranda grasping at the doctor¡¯s hand with desperation. ¡°No, you can¡¯t do the operation. My other son will do it.¡± Recalling Jasper was a doctor, she suddenly lost faith in any other doctor''s skill. The doctor, Norman Xanthos, flushed with anger. After all, he was a highly esteemed doctor in the hospital. Yet, here he was, facing unvoiced disdain. Miranda hurriedly gave Jasper a call, who happened to be in the very same hospital for some information exchange. Upon hearing the news, Jasper went to meet with Miranda immediately. When he saw Miranda¡¯s anxious look, he asked hurriedly, ¡°Mom, what''s going on?¡± Standing beside them, Norman brooded as he hadn''t expected Miranda to be Jasper¡¯s mother. Even so, what could any genius doctor do now? It wasn¡¯t simply about using exceptional medical skills to turn around a dire situation. The optimal moment was critical. Raymond had already missed the optimal moment. The most judicious act would have been to rush him to the hospital immediately after the ident, when he could still move his arm. Waiting for the ambnce to arrive and go back to the hospital had wasted precious time. Yet, Miranda stopped a doctor even after Raymond was sent into the operating room, insisting on waiting for her other son to arrive. ¡°I''m not entirely sure. Raymond was racing when the ident happened. Jace, my boy, you must save him. His arm... it¡¯s everything to him.¡± Miranda was so anxious that she burst into tears. She did not know what had happened, and when she heard the news, Raymond was already in the ambnce. ¡°Mom, calm down. It¡¯s going to be okay. Ray¡¯s strong. I¡¯m going to go get prepped right now.¡± Without saying anything further, Jasper directly went to the sterile ward and got changed. Chapter 12 Feb Upholding his professional ethic, Norman followed suit. 70% ¡°Dr. Yates, perhaps you should fullyprehend the situation first. The patient has missed the optimal treatment period...¡± Norman knew that Raymond''s arm could not be saved anymore. Jasper ignored what Norman had said. Instead, he nced at the badge on Norman¡¯s chest and replied very arrogantly, ¡°Dr. Xanthos, just because you can¡¯t save him doesn¡¯t mean we all can¡¯t.¡± Norman was so furious that he could not murmur even a word and thought, ¡°The Yates family sure are arrogant! I''d like to see if you can truly salvage your brother¡¯s arm!¡± During surgery, Jasper intended to repair Raymond''s joint, then mend his muscles and ligaments. However, he discovered that it was impossible because Raymond''s bones were shattered and ligaments were non-repairable. If Raymond had arrived at the hospital half an hour earlier, there would¡¯ve been hope, but right then, Jasper felt helpless. Jasper tried everything to remedy Raymond''s arm to no avail. He could not fix the broken arm. Even if he could suture it then, Raymond¡¯s arm would never be fully recovered to its previous state. After four hours of operation, Jasper finally walked out of the operating room. It was already three o¡¯clock in the morning. Upon seeing Jasper, Miranda hurriedly stepped forward and asked eagerly, ¡°Jace, how¡¯s Ray¡¯s arm? Is he okay?¡± ¡°Mom, Ray is fine. But his arm...¡± Jasper had tried his very best but could only put Raymond¡¯s arm back to its original ce. Yet, it could not return it to its original state. Raymond would no longer possess the strength to even hold a bowl independently. Norman did not leave but looked at the family gloatingly instead as he said, ¡°Mrs. Yates, had | been allowed to operate, | could''ve, at least, saved your son¡¯s arm. Even if he could not drive a racing car, he could have at least driven an ordinary one.¡± He added, ¡°Unfortunately, you wanted to wait for Dr. Yates to arrive. | guess it''d be difficult for the patient to even hold a pen now.¡± Initially, Norman would have turned a blind eye to Miranda¡¯s ignorance, but Jasper¡¯s arrogance annoyed him, He thought, ¡®How presumptuous, thinking he could turn things around. But in reality, Chapter 12 16 Feb what can he even do? Nothing could make up for the wasted time.This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org. If there were a person who could create a miracle in the world, it would be Faye. However, Faye had disappeared. Miranda¡¯s face turned pale after she heard Norman¡¯s words, with Jasper¡¯s expression. turning unpleasant at the same time. Jasper did not expect that there were things he could not achieve. However, Jasper and Miranda did not realize their own faults. Instead, they med Norman for not saving Raymond''s arm in time. 70% Norman retorted, ¡°The Yates family sure is ¡®impressive.¡¯ Dr. Yates, your mother barred me from operating. Now you all point fingers at me. How shameless you are!¡± He then added, ¡°I have to hurry to the surveince room to copy the surveince footage in case you want to cause me trouble.¡± Norman left for the surveince room in disgust, eager to distance himself from them. Miranda red at Norman fiercely behind his back. ¡°Jace, isn¡¯t there anything else you could do?¡± Miranda asked, refusing to give up. ¡°I''ll arrange for experts to assess Ray when he awakens,¡± suggested Jasper after a moment''s thought. ¡°Let¡¯s transfer him to my hospital for convenience¡¯s sake.¡± It was alreadyte, and Jasper did not expect only Miranda to be present. The next day, Raymond woke up to find that everyone was there. Yulissa looked very worried, her tears falling down her face. ¡°Ray! You''re finally awake!¡± Yulissa eximed as he fluttered his eyes open, sparking a sudden gathering around his. bed. ¡°Ray, how''re you feeling? Are you feeling any better?¡± Miranda asked worriedly. Benjamin chimed in, ¡°Good you¡¯ve woken up, Ray.¡± Benjamin thought the most important thing was that Raymond was fine. As for his arm, he could just give up on racing and boxing if there was no other way to recover. ¡°You really scared me, Ray. I¡¯m just d you''re finally awake,¡± Yulissa said adorably as she stopped crying and smiled. She did not want to die with Raymond just like that yesterday, so she left the mountain 70% Chapter 12 all by herself. Feeling scared, she got into the driver¡¯s car and returned home. However, after she calmed down, she realized that what she had done was absurd, thinking, ¡®What if Ray hates me for that?¡± She had no choice but to take Frederick and Matthew with her to search for Raymond. When they got back to the winding road, there was no one there. She didn¡¯t know Raymond had already been sent to the hospital until Miranda called them. Since Frederick and Matthew stopped Yulissa from rushing to the hospitalte at that time, she only asked for leave early this morning to visit Raymond. Raymond closed his eyes. Cold memories flooded back. He recalled how Yulissa had abandoned him at the site of the ident. ¡°Is that so? We were in an ident together, yet you left me and headed home alone?¡± Raymond was ming her with resentment. ¡°Ray, hold on a second. Are you suggesting that Lisa is to me for the ident? Are you seriously using her?¡± snapped Frederick. Yulissa, taken aback by the usations, started to cry. ¡°Ray, I¡¯m sorry. | didn¡¯t mean for any of this. Ca s sandra¡¯s car suddenly crashed into us, so | was so scared. | was scared that she would hurt you again because of her hatred toward me. That was why | had to run away to lure her away from you.¡± She added, ¡°I didn¡¯t abandon you, Ray. As soon as | got home, | told Fred and Matt, and we set out to find you... But by then... You were already in the hospital.¡± As Yulissa. sobbed, it became clear to everyone that it was Cas sandra who caused Raymond''s arm injury. ¡°D amn it! That ingrate! How dare she hit you with a car? | must teach her a lesson!¡± Benjamin was utterly furious. f& SEND GIFT 0 Chapter 13 Chapter 13 Raymond opened his mouth but did not know what to say as he thought, ¡®Is that so? Did Cas sandra do that intentionally?¡± He then thought that couldn¡¯t be it. If Cas sandra had deserted them at that critical moment, he and Yulissa would undoubtedly have lost their lives. However, Cas sandra hadn¡¯t hesitated to risk it all by letting Jeremiah ram into Raymond''s car. Raymond survived, but the head of Jeremiah¡¯s car was nearly totaled. ¡°Ray, don¡¯t you believe me?¡± Yulissa asked nervously. ¡°Although I¡¯m timid, you¡¯re my brother. | would never intentionally leave you. Even if Cas sandra hates me, you¡¯re her biological brother. | can¡¯t let her hurt you.¡± Raymond remained unmoved. Exasperation bubbled up within Yulissa. ¡®How can he be so obstinate?¡¯ she pondered in silent indignation. Resigned, she said, ¡°Ray, since you don¡¯t believe me, I''ll just leave. It¡¯s my fault that you have be like this. I¡¯m too ashamed to stay here anymore.¡± She hurried towards the door, but Matthew stopped her. H ¡°Ray, | believe what Lisa said. You must have misunderstood her. When Fred and | went to look for you on that winding road, Lisa was worried sick, Matthew said. ¡°Lisa has cried all night. As soon as she found out you were in the hospital, she wanted to see you. It was me and Matt who stopped her from rushing over herete at night.¡± Frederick also believed Yulissa¡¯s story. He thought that Cas sandra must have deliberately crashed into them as an act of revenge. ¡°|... Lisa, I''m sorry. It was wrong of me to point the finger at you without justification.¡± Raymond still felt something was amiss, but since everyone had said so, he thought that maybe he had really misunderstood Yulissa. He assumed he should apologize to her. Satisfied, Yulissa said, ¡°Ray, you don¡¯t need to apologize. I¡¯m just relieved you''re not angry with me anymore.¡± ¡°All right. I¡¯m happy the misunderstanding is cleared up,¡± said Leonardo. He also unconditionally believed Yulissa. He was convinced she was kind and innocent, Fri, 16 Feb Chapter 13 and everything she had done was for the sake of her brothers, so it was impossible for her to do something like abandoning Raymond. ¡°It''s all Cas sandra¡¯s fault.¡± Matthew then med his parents ¡°Why did you even let her back into our lives? She¡¯s done nothing but torment Lisa and now, she¡¯s even hurt Ray. What¡¯s next? Is she going to retaliate against us, her other brothers?¡± Miranda and Benjamin also itched with regret at their impulsive decision to bring Cas sandra back home. Besides, Cas sandra used the family name of Yates in the first ce, so they didn¡¯t even change her name after she came back. ¡°| wanted her back because she is, after all, our child. Yet, | never expected that Cas sandra, living in the countryside for 18 years, would turn out to be such a haughty and boorish girl, Benjamin said. Benjamin¡¯s blood boiled, not for Raymond''s hospitalization, but because the man who sent them money on Cas sandra¡¯s behalf showed up again at around 9 p.m.st night, carrying a suitcase and returning Cas sandra¡¯s school fees of thest two months. The money was undoubtedly a humiliation to Benjamin. At present, everyone in his social circle knew that he did not acknowledge his biological daughter but treated her as an adopted daughter instead. He even got humiliated first by 20,000 dors from their despised daughter Cas sandra and then got his family¡¯s reputation affected by the returned 200 thousand dors. Benjamin thought, ¡®If | had known things would turn out like this, | shouldn¡¯t have. brought her back in the first ce!¡¯ ¡°Dad, Cas sandra is beyond redemption. I''ll handle this. I''ll send her to Desert Ind for two years,¡± Leonardo said calmly yet firmly. His deration seemed to decide Cas sandra¡¯s fate. Yulissa felt overjoyed as she did not expect such a surprise. Though she had never been to Desert Ind, which was owned by Leonardo, she¡¯d heard enough about the ce from him. It was a barren ce. With no food, water, or a means to signal for help, people who were sent there couldn''t survive at all. Looking at the hostility Leonardo felt for Cas sandra, Yulissa realized she could stoke these mes and keep the hatred alive. 11:21 Fri, 16 Feb mu. Chapter 13 EGR70%S +5 ¡°Leo, please don¡¯t do this to Cas sandra. She might not have meant it. It¡¯s just that... she doesn¡¯t like me. I¡¯m certain that once I''m out of the picture, her anger will subside, and there won''t be any more idents, Yulissa pleaded. Her words, far from being comforting, only fueled everyone¡¯s anger. ¡°Lisa, your kindness is misced. Cas sandra has no right to reject you. If she dislikes you, Yates family,¡± Leonardo responded, cing a she¡¯s unfit to be a part of the comforting hand on Yulissa¡¯s shoulder. ¡°Leo¡¯s right. Lisa, you shouldn¡¯t excuse her. She¡¯s just an ungrateful person,¡± Matthew said angrily. Cas sandra, for her part, was sweeping through her usual routine, walking into her ssroom for her lesson. To her annoyance, her desk was cluttered with something unexpected. For example, trash. Cas sandra snorted coldly and took out her phone, snapping some photos of the mess on her desk. ¡°Who did this? Apologize now. It wouldn''t be this easy when | find you.¡± Cas sandra¡¯s. tone was cold and detached. She thought, ¡®Do they think I¡¯m a pushover?¡¯ Cas sandra then started to count down. ¡°One! Two! Three!¡± ¡°Cas sandra, what¡¯s wrong with you? Isn''t it just that someone identally dumped some garbage on your desk? Stop escting the matter. Besides, why would they only do that to you instead of others? Shouldn''t you reflect on yourself for that? If you don¡¯t want to attend ss, then get out. We need a peaceful room!¡± It was Yulissa¡¯s best friend, Christine Lundstrom, who had stood up. She acted like a bringer of justice, criticizing a victim. Cas sandra suddenly recalled a quote. ¡°Who killed you? | don¡¯t know because they stood on moral high ground. The re of their holiness blinded me to their faces.¡± She thought, ¡®Isn¡¯t that what Christine is doing right now? Reflect on myself? Why should | give in since I¡¯m in the right? ¡°So, it was you?¡± Cas sandra¡¯s dangerous gaze fixed on Christine. ¡°You sure are quick to point fingers. Instead of behaving like a rabid dog, why not find the one who actually did this? But what can we expect? You¡¯re just a country bumpkin, and your petty nature is something you can¡¯t change,¡± Christine retorted, looking at Chapter 13 Cas sandra haughtily. Convinced that the destroyed surveince camera would keep her out of trouble, Christine felt untouchable. ¡°Since no one¡¯s owning up, let''s handle this in another way. We''re all adults now, aren''t we?¡± said Cas sandra. She remembered that when she first joined the ss, she was informed that Yulissa was the youngest, doted on by all. Now, Yulissa had turned 18, marking adulthood for everyone in the ss. An adult should solve matters in an adult manner. m aw-ab iding citizen!¡¯ thought Cas sandra.This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org. ¡°Hello, 911? I¡¯m a Grade-12 student from Xemrich High School. I¡¯m experiencing. violence and bullying from my ssmates. | was wondering if the police intervene int such situations?¡± Cas sandra called the police. She didn¡¯t name any bullies, but herint was serious enough to warrant attention. School violence cases were frequent these years, and the police investigated each thoroughly, especially in Drieso, the capital. port Now that a student had called to report it, the police would attach great importance to it. ¡°Cas sandra, how dare you call the police! End this call immediately! You''re crossing at line!¡± Christine shouted in panic. But, surprisingly, Cas sandra stayed on the line. ¡°Officer, you heard it, right? I¡¯ve just been threatened, and you''re the witness,¡± said Cas sandra. Hf Chapter 14 Chapter 14 Cas sandra calmly hung up the phone and recorded the scene. ¡°Do not move! Destroying the crime scene will warrant a more severe punishment.¡± Today, she intended to get the pest of Honors ss One out. this group If everyone could remain peaceful till the day of SAT, she wouldn¡¯t target this people. Unfortunately, some people simply didn¡¯t know what was good for them. of ¡°Are you done, Cas sandra? We didn¡¯t even do anything to you. Is it necessary to make a mountain out of a molehill?¡± The one who spoke was Samuel, the self-righteous ss president and the most attractive boy in ss. ¡°Samuel, if it were anyone else today, you would¡¯ve sought justice for them, no?¡± What Cas sandra despised the most was these snobs who yed up to those in power. In the past two months since the enrolment, thanks to Yulissa, Cas sandra truly had a proper experience of what school violence was! It was beyond her expectation that it¡¯d happen again today. ¡°What are you guys arguing about? Don¡¯t you guys know the morning reading session has already started?¡± questioned Connor, the homeroom teacher. He spotted Cas sandra standing on one side of the ssroom, neither sitting nor speaking. ¡°Mr. Zeller, someone is disrupting the ssroom discipline.¡± A student raised his hand. and pointed to Cas sandra. She was also one of Yulissa¡¯s ¡°best friends,¡± albeit Cas sandra couldn¡¯t recall the student''s name. ¡°Cas sandra, get back to your seat and prepare for the morning reading.¡± Connor didn¡¯t want to get too involved. After all, it was already nearing the end of Grade 12, so he didn¡¯t care about the truth as long as it didn¡¯t affect others. ¡°| can¡¯t sit in my seat right now, Mr. Zeller,¡± Cas sandra replied offhandedly. Connor nced impatiently at her corner seat. It was full of garbage. A frown appeared on his face as he ¡°What''s going on?¡± Conner walked into the ssroom and came to Cas sandra¡¯s seat. Chapter 14 ¡°What''s going on? Who did this?¡± Evidently, someone had deliberately poured garbage on Cas sandra¡¯s desk. It shocked him that someone was actually engaging in school violence in his ss. ¡°How dare you people bully your ssmate!¡¯ he scolded inwardly. Upon getting no response, Connor added, ¡°Nobody¡¯s talking, huh? Then, I''ll investigate it!¡± ¡°Mr. Zeller, none of us saw anything. Besides, why would they only target Cas sandra but not us? The problem must lie with her. Grade 12 is an important year, yet she¡¯sining and implicating all of us over a little inconvenience. Isn¡¯t she simply trying to waste our time?¡± Christine grumbled in displeasure. Not wanting the homeroom teacher to investigate this matter, she thought, ¡®She¡¯s merely a country bumpkin. So what if she¡¯s been bullied? What can she do? Find people to bully us back? ¡®As expected of lowly people. How imperceptive. Connor mulled it over, ¡®Investigating this matter will indeed waste everyone¡¯s time. It¡¯s not worth it.¡± ¡°Cas sandra, clean up your seat and get ready for the lesson. Come to my office after ss.¡± Hence, Connor decided to keep the peace and downy the issue. ¡°| can¡¯t touch this, Mr. Zeller. This is evidence that I¡¯m being bullied. The police will being soon. They''ll give me justice.¡± Cas sandra paused before continuing, ¡°I¡¯ve also emailed the video | just shot to Mr. Huddleston. | believe he has already seen it.¡± Her harmless-looking face appeared dainty and enchanting, but her actions were absolute and callous. Christine immediately panicked upon hearing that Cas sandra had sent the video to the principal, Edward Huddleston. ¡°That¡¯s impossible. How could this bumpkin have Mr. Huddleston¡¯s email address?¡¯ she brooded. However, despite Cas sandra truly not having Edward¡¯s email address, the video that suddenly popped up on hisputer screen at this moment could not be closed, no matter what he did! Fri, 16 Feb M Chapter 11 When he saw the situation clearly, he smacked the desk in rage. 70% ¡°The child I¡¯ve been looking high and low for more than a year is actually in my school? What are the odds! ¡®But why is her desk so messy with what seems like garbage? ¡®Has she been subjected to school violence? ¡®Damn! Who dares to bully my student?¡¯ Edward cursed to himself. ¡°Cas sandra, you-¡± ¡°Do you think | went too far, Mr. Zeller?¡± Cas sandra pretended not to understand and met Connor¡¯s eyes. She knew it was impossible to expect these teachers to avenge her anyway. Since that principal was also looking for her, she figured she¡¯d let him take care of this matter. There was no need for her to hide and not see anyone now that she¡¯d nned to return. to being herself. ¡°You''re all ssmates. You''ve indeed gone a little too far.¡± Connor chose his words carefully, afraid that Cas sandra¡¯s self-esteem would really be hurt. ¡°Mr. Zeller, perhaps she poured it all by herself just to frame someone. Don¡¯t be fooled by her!¡± Christine didn¡¯t want anyone to stand up for Cas sandra. The words of the homeroom teacher were utterly indifferent and perfunctory. ¡°Who called us?¡± The police officers arrived. ¡°I did!¡± Cas sandra¡¯s sweet, melodious voice instantly earned the police officers¡¯ sympathy. They couldn''t fathom how someone could bully such an optimistic girl. The policemen walked up to Cas sandra and frowned at the sight of the mess and garbage on her desk. ¡®Isn''t this an elite school? ¡°Who would do such a shrewish thing?¡± were their thoughts. Chapter 14 ¡°Who did this? Step forward, admit it, and apologize, and we can deal with this leniently,¡± a policeman addressed the whole ss. Nheless, no one answered him. At this time, Edward also came in. Looking at Cas sandra¡¯s familiar face, he was practically over the moon on the inside. ¡°This child is really here! he thought. ¡± did this? Ston forward!¡± Edward fumed. Connor hadn''t expected the principal to arrive so soon. ¡°Mr. Huddleston...¡± ¡°Mr. Zeller, a student in your ss has been bullied. What are you, as the homeroom teacher, even doing to look after your kids?¡± ¡°Especially when ites to this sweetheart of mine, added Edward inwardly. ¡°Mr. Huddleston, this is a misunderstanding.¡± Connor was a little unconfident. ¡°What misunderstanding? Isn''t this already clear to see?¡± Edward shouted, astounded at how his teachers dealt with matters as such. However, he seemed to forget that he, too, had the same attitude toward other parents. and students when dealing with problems. It was rare for him to be so determined to deal with something. ¡°Child, you have the police and principal here now. Tell us what exactly happened,¡± asked a police officer gently. ¡°Mr. Zeller, I''ve been going through this every day since | joined the school two months. ago... Cas sandra borated on everything. Being sshed with water on the first day of school and having pen ink spilled on her desk were child¡¯s y. Worse things had happened,/such as being locked in the bathroom and having no way to get out until the janitor came to open the door. Every day in school, her desk would bring her ¡°surprises¡± like a mystery box. It''d either be kicked over on the floor, dumped in the hallway, or thrown downstairs. Her books were dirty beyond belief too. 70% Chapter 14This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org. Hearing this, the policeman shuddered with fury from head to toe. ¡®What kind of elite school is this? How could the students be so crude!¡¯ he pondered. Edward, too, was livid, not expecting that there were so many ck sheep in his school. Concurrently, he also inwardly rebuked Cas sandra for not going to him. Truth be told, had Cas sandra not seen Edward at the graduation ceremony in her previous life, she wouldn¡¯t have known that this school belonged to him. Back then, the business card given by the old man had long been thrown away by her. ¡°Do you have any evidence for everything you said?¡± Cas sandra contemted for a moment. She did have photo evidence, but it was not convincing enough. ¡°Please wait a minute, Officer.¡± With that, she took out her phone and did something. One minuteter, she said, ¡°Officer, all the surveince footage has been sent to your police station¡¯s email. You can ask your colleagues to check.¡± 5/3 Chapter 15 Chapter 15 Stunned, the policeman called his colleagues at the police station skeptically and asked them to check their email. As it turned out, they really found a new email containing a surveince footage. In the video, a group of people were bullying Cas sandra, moving her desk to random ces and throwing her books and homework wherever they pleased. This riled up the police officers. However, there were too many students involved in the video, so there was no way they could all be taken away. Not to mention, all of them were Grade 12 students. The police couldn¡¯t ruin all the kids¡¯ futures. At once, the policeman was caught in a dilemma. Cas sandra could tell it, too, whereas Christine breathed a long sigh of relief. ¡®So what if the police watched the video? Almost everyone has bullied Cas sandra, so they won''t be able to punish all of us. What can she possibly do?¡¯ scoffed Christine on the inside. ¡°Since you feel troubled, Officer, then forget it," Cas sandra said considerately. She thought that since this policeman couldn¡¯t handle the matter, she''d simply find someone else who could. ¡°We''ve watched the surveince footage. It¡¯s veryprehensive and conclusive, but there are too many people involved. Besides, you guys are only a little more than a month away from SAT. We can''t...¡± he trailed off, adding ¡°ruin their futures¡± me ntally. ¡°Officer, are you saying | should sacrifice for the greater good? As the victim, | have to forgive the perpetrators without even getting an apology. Is that what you mean?¡± Cas sandra¡¯s tone abruptly became cold. Edward knew that she had gotten mad. ¡°Since the police don¡¯t wish to interfere, | believe that someone will stand by me,¡± she continued. ¡°What are you going to do, child?¡± An ominous feeling sprang up within the policeman. ¡°I''m not going to do anything. | don¡¯t understand the principle behind thew not Fri, 16 Feb Chapter 15 punishing the masses, nor am | that noble of a person to sacrifice myself for the perpetrators.¡± Cas sandra went on, ¡°I have theplete video of the one | sent you. Since you can¡¯t give me justice, I''ll let thew do it.¡± Cas sandra, who had been reborn, would not spare anyone who hurt her! ¡°Mr. Youngblood, help me draw up a civilint!¡± Cas sandra forwarded the surveince footage she sent to the police station to Jonathan Youngblood, awyer. ¡°What''s wrong, Cas sandra?¡± Jonathan asked with concern. ¡°Oh, nothing. I¡¯ve been bullied in school and would like to sue the school along with all my ssmates. | will send you the name list. Please help me draft up the civilint by today. Thank you.¡± ¡°Okay, no problem. Are you all right, though?¡± Jonathan queried. ¡°Yes. I''ll hang up now.¡± Never in a million years did Edward expect that Cas sandra would sue the school as well. ¡°Cas sandra, um, can we discuss this...¡± He thought, ¡®You can sue anyone, but don¡¯t sue the school!¡± When everyone in ss heard that they were going to be sued, they instantly panicked and looked at Christine in unison. Christine was also inwardly panic-stricken at this moment. But it suddenly urred to her that Cas sandra was not favored by the Yates family at all, so she didn¡¯t believe they would give thetter money for awsuit. ¡°Who knows if you''re telling the truth? You could just be bluffing!¡± Christine¡¯s face was grim, but she stubbornly refused to admit her faults. ¡°We''ll know if I¡¯m bluffing when the timees.¡± Cas sandra turned to look at the two police officers and Edward. ¡°Mr. Huddleston, Officers, you¡¯re not needed here anymore. You can go. But, Officers, keep in mind that you''ll have to face the music for today¡¯s oue!¡± ¡°Turns out, just and honest police are also snobs who y up to those in power. s! Looks like there really isn¡¯t kindness in this world!¡¯ she mused. ¡°You-¡± Cas sandra was no longer in the mood to continue with today¡¯s lessons, so she carried. 70% Chapter 15 her schoolbag and returned to Springmount Townhouse. Hugo had just finished shopping and came home when he saw Cas sandra slumped on the couch, looking wholly udylike.. Yet, this was the real side of her. ¡°Why are you back today, Ms. Yates?¡± Hugo inquired. ¡°No reason. | just don¡¯t want to go to ss today.¡± Cas sandra closed her eyes and rested. ¡®Hm, this isfy!¡¯ she mused. ¡°All right. Then, I''ll go prepare the ingredients for lunch today-¡± Before Hugo could finish his words, the phone rang with an rm. It signified someone hacking into his ount. ¡°Ms. Yates, I''ll go upstairs and have a look first.¡± Hugo turned on his device and discovered that someone was looking for him on the dark web. [Can the miracle doctor make a home visit now? The consultation fee will be increased to 2 billion dors.] It was a message Keh had asked Yannick to send. They couldn¡¯t afford to wait anymore. Ayear ago, during a mission, Keh¡¯s buddy, Kayden Yates, was poisoned and had his leg bones crushed to save Keh. It had been a year, but the poison still wasn¡¯t eliminated and aggravated his condition instead. His legs had also be cri ppled. Today, Kayden¡¯s vitals were all abnormal, and he even had several cardiac arrests. Yet, the miracle doctor had only previously promised to visit on Saturday. As Kayden wouldn¡¯t be able tost that long, Keh had no choice but to hack the ount that epted the job. Hugo replied: [I''ll have to ask my boss. Give me a second.] He went downstairs, seeing that Cas sandra was eating a snack. En Chapter 15 Of course, it was what he had bought home. 70% ¡°Ms. Yates, the person that the Zelinski family is trying to save seems to be on the brink of death. They want you to make a visit today, and they''ve increased the consultation fee to 2 billion dors.¡± She raised one of her delicate eyebrows slightly, feeling rather astonished. ¡®2-billion-dor consultation fee! Woohoo, I''ve hit the jackpot!¡¯ she cheered to herself, rtively ecstatic. ¡°Go reply to him that I''ll visit at two o¡¯clock in the afternoon. Tell him to have the consultation fee on hand,¡± Cas sandra stated confidently and proudly. ¡°Got it!¡± ¡®2 billion dors, check! ¡°This is perfect!¡¯ she thought. After lunch, Cas sandra went upstairs and put on makeup, disguising herself to the extent that nobody would be able to recognize her. ¡°Let''s go.¡± Hugo drove toward Pinehart Mansion, a mansion belonging to the Zelinski family. As long as Drieso¡¯s miracle doctor, Faye, went on a consult, Hugo would definitely be present too. Hugo drove the car directly through the gates to the front door of the mansion. Yannick, who knew Hugo, was already waiting there. Hugo was the face of Whitecrane Hall. Whenever Faye went for a consult in Drieso, Hugo would be around. Cas sandra merely changed her appearance mildly, but she seeded in making it impossible for anyone to tell whether she was an acquaintance. ¡°Are you Dr. Faye Quirke?¡± ¡®Isn¡¯t she way too young?¡¯ wondered Yannick. ¡°Why? Do you have doubts? ¡°No, no, no. | just didn¡¯t expect you to be so young, never mind a girl.¡± After all, Faye had no Adam¡¯s apple, which made it impossible for her to be a man. ¡°Pleasee in. My boss is waiting for you.¡± Yannick respectfully weed them into Chapter 15 the mansion. Keh¡¯s pupils changed slightly at the sight of the guests. ¡°This person''s so familiar!¡¯ he pondered. ¡°Where¡¯s the patient?¡± Faye went straight to the point. ¡°On the third floor. This is my boss, Mr. Zelinski!¡± Yannick replied reverentially. Keh had wanted to meet Faye in advance to see if the miracle doctor was genuinely as miraculous as rumored. ¡°Are you confident you can cure my friend?¡± Keh questioned. Regardless, it was impossible for him to believe someone who came so readily. He needed to see Faye¡¯s truepetence. ¡°| won''t know before | see the patient.¡± Faye maintained a professional attitude. ¡°Yannick, take Dr. Quirke upstairs,¡± ordered Keh. 0This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org. SEND GIFT Chapter 16 Chapter 16 Cas sandra briefly froze when she saw the patient. ¡®In the previous life, his death seemed to be a sensation. If | recall correctly, he was some kind of deputy team leader for a special operations force or something. ¡®| think he had the military rank of the youngest senior colonel in Clusia. ¡®His true identity was only revealed after his death. They held him a grand military funeral, and he received everyone¡¯s condolences, she ruminated. At that time, Kayden¡¯s funeral was even broadcast live on the Inte. Cas sandra saw the trending topics but didn¡¯t pay much attention to them. ¡°To think this man is actually here. ¡®Since he¡¯s the deputy team leader of the special operations force and is appearing in Keh¡¯s home, perhaps Keh is also a member of the special operations force? ¡®A businessman on the outside but actually a military personnel? ¡°Tsk, tsk. He¡¯s done a good job concealing himself, she pondered. Atraditional medicine practitioner always paid attention to studying a patient¡¯s condition. After observing Kayden¡¯splexion, Cas sandra read his pulse to diagnose him. Next, she examined his reattached but non-functional legs. The poison in him was polka dot begonia. It was named after the seven small yellow dots on its petals. Most importantly, its flower root and leaves were highly poisonous, but if it was not refined, it would not hurt people. Someone who could refine poison with polka dot begonia was likely a poison expert. After all, this poison hadn¡¯t been used for ages. It was truly already incredible for Keh to have kept Kayden alive for a year. Generally, people poisoned by polka dot begonia tended to die soon after. ¡°Dr. Quirke, can you cure him?¡± Keh asked in a deep voice, but his tone was mild. This stunned Yannick a little. ¡®What''s happening? Why is Mr. Zelinski being so gentle?¡¯ he wondered. 11:22 Fri, 16 Feb MOH Chapter 16 BSE70% However, even Keh himself had no idea why he was speaking in such a mild tone. It was as if Faye had a magic power that made people involuntarily want to get close to her, just like Cas sandra did. ¡®But Faye likely isn¡¯t Cassie. Cassie suffered so much in the countryside. If she¡¯s the miracle doctor, Faye, how many hardships would she have had to endure before she got to where she is now?¡¯ he mused. ¡°Of course. | can treat his legs too,¡± answered Faye collectedly.. ¡°In that case, please go ahead with the treatment.¡± This came as a surprise to Keh and the rest. They initially thought it would already be good to eliminate the poison, but Faye was saying she could treat Kayden¡¯s legs, too.. ¡°But...¡± Cas sandra trailed off, but Hugo had alreadypletely understood what she wanted to say. ¡°Previously, you only ced an order for the elimination of poison, Mr. Zelinski. The treatment of his legs wasn¡¯t within the job scope,¡± Hugo rified. He meant to say that if they wanted to treat Kayden¡¯s legs, they had to pay more. Cas sandra was struck dumb. ¡°That''s not what | meant!N?velDrama.Org owns this text. The man before me was kind to me in my previous life. How could | possibly raise the fee?¡¯ she thought. In a trice, Cas sandra was speechless. She wanted to refute it, but if she did, she¡¯d be discrediting Hugo.. Hence, she decided to go along with it. In reality, she merely wanted to say that she needed a kind of herb that was fairly difficult to find. That was all. ¡°The fee can be negotiated. As long as he can be cured, it doesn¡¯t matter how much it costs,¡± said Keh. ¡°Well, you''ll need to send someone to look for a herb named ¡®telegraph nt. It can cure his legs,¡± instructed Cas sandra. It was a herb that she didn¡¯t possess on hand and was rather in need of Fri, 16 Feb Chapter 161 70% Unfortunately, the asking price of it in Windstreet Auction House was too high for her to afford. It was so expensive that it exceeded the value of the herb itself. Even though she was rich, she couldn¡¯t just spend money like water. ¡°Where can | find it?¡± Keh asked. Looking at Faye¡¯s expression, he reckoned she knew the answer. ¡°How about this? There¡¯s no need to increase the consultation fee. As long as you get the telegraph nt and hand it over to me, I''ll take it as the consultation fee for his leg treatment. What do you say?¡± Cas sandra thought it was a very good deal. She could not only cure the bedridden patient but also offset the consultation fee, not to mention own the telegraph nt. It was killing three birds with one stone. ¡®Only an idiot would turn this down!¡± she pondered. ¡°Then, my friend¡¯s legs...¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry. | will definitely cure him, but the leftover telegraph nt belongs to me.¡± Cas sandra¡¯s mature and h oa rse voice was persuasive. Indeed, she brought a voice changer so that no one could recognize her true voice. ¡°Deal,¡± agreed Keh. ¡°Tomorrow night, Windstreet Auction House will auction off two telegraph nts. The rest is up to you.¡± ¡°All right. Dr. Quirke, please eliminate the poison first, then.¡± Cas sandra turned around and stuffed a pill into the mouth of the person lying in bed. ¡°Get a bigger basin and ce it under his chin. He¡¯s about to start vomiting blood,¡± she ordered. Soon after, everyone saw the patient wake up and begin to vomit ck blood endlessly. It was not only ck but also foul- smelling. Before long, his vomit filled half a basin, and he couldn¡¯t get any more out. Even Keh found the smell fairly putrid and reflexively furrowed his brows. Cas sandra, on the other hand, looked entirely unaffected, as if this was a walk in the park. 3-3 70% Chapter 16 She took out silver needles and began to apply them to the patient¡¯s chest, arms, and top of his head. Allin all, 120 silver needles were used up. It was quite a has sle. ¡°I''ll remove the needles in half an hour and let him bleed out again. You know the patient¡¯s blood type, right? After the bloodletting, it¡¯s best he receives a transfusion. Otherwise, he may lose too much blood from the elimination of poison...¡± Cas sandra didn¡¯t verbally mention that it¡¯d lead to death, but it was understood. ¡°Rest assured, Dr. Quirke. We have spare sma of the same blood type as him,¡± Yannick replied. Fortunately, as Kayden¡¯s physical condition had to be monitored at all times and doctors would also asionally draw his blood and give him transfusions, the mansion behind Pinehart Mansion had been converted to a blood bank to store sma that matched Kayden¡¯s blood type. ¡°Mm. In that case, prepare another basin and bring the sma over in 20 minutes.¡± Yannick¡¯s face turned pale as he thought, ¡®Another basin? ¡®Is the blood gonna be smelly again?¡± As it turned out, yes, the blood stank, and it was way worse than when Kayden vomited it out. Unable to stand it anymore, Yannick started to retch the moment he walked out of the room. It stank worse than a roomful of surstr¨¦mmings! After Cas sandra was done with Kayden¡¯s bloodletting, Hugo immediately took the sma and an infusion tube from Yannick¡¯s hands, Then, he inserted the tube at once and gave the patient the blood transfusion. ¡°The poison has been more or less eliminated. The rest will have to be forced out via medicinal bath and acupuncture.¡± The whole treatment also took a toll on the frail Cas sandra, causing her forehead to be covered with sweat. ¡°Thank you, Dr. Quirke.¡± Keh had no doubt that his pal could likely survive. He looked at the two basins of ck blood. Now that the poison was eliminated, 11:22 Fri, 16 Feb M Chapter 16: Kayden should be fine. 70% n ¡°Take two pills a day from this bag. One¡¯s for consumption, while the other¡¯s for dissolving in water at 122 degrees Fahrenheit for his medicinal bath. It¡¯s best to do so in a wooden bathtub instead of a ceramic one.¡± Cas sandra contemted if she had missed out anything before continuing, ¡°And don¡¯t wear clothes either. Take the medicinal bath naked. During the first bath, I¡¯ll have Hugo keep an eye on it. On Saturday afternoon, I''lle over and proceed with acupuncture treatment.¡± The polka dot begonia, though highly poisonous, was not intractable. Although there was no antidote, it could be eliminated. ¡°Okay. Thank you, Dr. Quirke. I''ll have someone wire the consultation fee to youter.¡± In high spirits for once, Keh spoke much gentler. Yannick, standing aside, secretly wondered if his vacation time would be approved if he asked his boss at this time. ¡°Ask Hugo for the ount number, said Cas sandra. She then turned around and said to Hugo, ¡°Hugo, I''ll be leaving first. Have the patient. consume the medicer. Half an hour after that, let him take the medicinal bath. You''ll follow up and exin the things to note to them for the first bath. Thereafter, they can do it on their own. ¡°Got it, Boss,¡± Hugo answered. He had just witnessed her wonderful needle technique again and watched her eliminate. the polka dot begonia in merely an hour. Needless to say, he was simply in awe of Cas sandra¡¯s greatness now. Keh volunteered to see Faye out. After walking to the car, Cas sandra hesitated. ¡®How is Hugo gonna go back if | take the car?¡¯ she contemted. f& SEND GIFT 0 COMMENT Chapter 17 Chapter 17 n Keh saw Faye¡¯s dilemma. For some inexplicable reason, he abruptly suggested, ¡°How about | give you a ride back, Dr. Quirke?¡± The moment this question came out of his mouth, he, too, froze for a bit. He was only following his heart. After all, in his view, Faye was too alike to Cas sandra. ¡°That¡¯s too much trouble, Mr. Zelinski. Just send someone to take me home will do.¡± The main reason was that Cas sandra didn¡¯t want to drive back, only to have to turn around shortly after to pick up Hugo. ¡°It''s no trouble. It''s my honor to serve you, Dr. Quirke.¡± Keh¡¯s lips quirked up faintly. Even the slight smile managed to reveal his chirpy mood. ¡°This way, please.¡± Yannick¡¯s biggest feature was his observation skills. Once he saw Faye¡¯s dilemma, he immediately drove out his boss¡¯ most beloved car. It was a Bugatti sports car, La Voiture Noire.. Only one existed in the world. Cas sandra fell a little silent, thinking, ¡®Isn¡¯t this car... a bit too ostentatious?¡± Although she also liked the car very much, to her, it was only suitable to be admired.Content rights by N?velDr//ama.Org. If it were driven out everyone would know it was Keh on the road! At this time, Keh had already gotten into the driver¡¯s seat. Left without a choice, Cas sandra could only get into the vehicle as well. ¡°Where to?¡± he asked. ¡°Whitecrane Hall will do.¡± She''d go to Whitecrane Hall and have Jeremiah take her home. After all, it would be suspicious if Keh sent her back to Springmount Townhouse. On the contrary, Whitecrane Hall was a much more open and transparent option. Everyone knew that Whitecrane Hall was Faye¡¯s territory. 115 11:22 Fri, 16 Feb M Chapter 17 ¡°Okay.¡± Keh stepped on the elerator and sped out of the mansion. On the way, he cagerly wanted to get to know someone for once. ¡°Dr. Quirke, what¡¯s your real name? Based on your voice, | presume you''re pretty young, yes?¡± Cas sandra was at a loss for words. ¡°Bruh, are you trying to run a background check?¡¯ she mused. ¡°This... doesn¡¯t seem to have anything to do with you, Mr. Zelinski.¡± After all, she had cured his buddy, so their transaction was pretty much over. There was no need for them to know each other on an intimate level. ¡°There¡¯s still a long way to Whitecrane Hall. It wouldn¡¯t be nice of me if | don¡¯t strike up a conversation with you.¡± In other words, he was saying he wanted to hit on her, and she¡¯d better agree. Unexpectedly, Faye said out of the blue, Then, I''ll take a nap. Wake me when we get there.¡± She was likely the only person in this world who would really regard Keh as a driver. ¡°Hah!¡± Keh found it quite interesting that Faye could ignore him like this. Forty minutester, the car pulled up at the front of Whitecrane Hall. ¡°Dr. Quirke, we''re here.¡± He spoke up to wake her up. ¡°Thanks. Take care.¡± Cas sandra opened the car door and walked toward the shop. ¡°Dr. Quirke, won''t you give me your contact number?¡± Cas sandra was lost for words. ¡°Isn''t it rumored that Keh, the heir of the Zelinski family, is a cu nning, moody, and murderous man who spares/no mercy toward anyone who tries to climb into his bed? ¡®If so, who is this amiable and kind gentleman in front of me now? ¡®Has he been possessed?¡¯ she pondered. ¡°If you need anything, just contact me through Hugo.¡± 2/5 Chapter 17 It was a polite refusal. Ignoring Keh, Cas sandra went straight to the back office and found Jeremiah, was ying video games, before asking him to take her home. Right then, she was already dressed in the look of a student. At school, after thest ss, everyone felt that Cas sandra¡¯s words in the morning we a bluff and didn¡¯t mean anything. They seriously looked down on her. However, to their shock, the first student who tried to step out of the ssroom docz was blocked. ¡°Excuse me. Is this Grade 12¡¯s Honors ss One?¡± The unknown person at the door was dressed in a light gray suit, about five feet eleven inches tall, and wore gold-rimmed sses, looking roughly twenty-seven to twenty- eight years old. ¡°Yes. Who are you looking for?¡± ¡°Then, I¡¯m at the right ce.¡± The visitor smiled lightly, but his gaze was full of chilliness. ¡°I''ve been entrusted by Ms. Cas sandra Yates to send a total of 43 civilints for each student in Grade 12¡¯s Honors ss One. Please check¡± He took out a thick pile of envelopes from his briefcase, the first name of which was Christine. Everyone''s faces changed drastically when they heard this. ¡®Cas sandra is actually serious! ¡®How could she be so shameless?¡¯ were their thoughts. ¡°In addition, ourw firm has sent awyer¡¯s letter and civilint to all of your parents. Therefore, | believe you guys should be clear about what to do next¡± After saying that, the visitor left and went to the principal¡¯s office next. In the meantime, the rest of the ssmates panicked. ¡°We didn¡¯t want to target Cas sandra. It was all instigated by Christine! Didn¡¯t she say that Cas sandra¡¯s a disfavored imposter? Why are we being sued now? ¡®What should | do? If my parents know that I¡¯ve bullied my ssmate at school. | definitely be punished when | get home!¡± they reflected. 70% Chapter 17 Astudent ran to Christine and interrogated her, ¡°Christine, didn¡¯t you say that Cas sandra wouldn''t dare to sue? What about now? What''s going on here!¡± ¡°How would | know what¡¯s wrong with Cas sandra?¡± Christine still didn¡¯t really believe this was possible. ¡®Hiring awyer to file a civilint against so many people costs a huge sum!

Weren''t you guys happily bullying Cas sandra back then, too? Since we''re going to be finished, let''s do so together, then!¡± Christine couldn¡¯t be bothered anymore. ¡®Anyway, I¡¯m not the only one. So what if | started it? ¡°| merely wanted to avenge my best friend, Lisa, ¡°She''ll defin protect me. ¡°There¡¯s nothing for me to fear. The Yates family is rich and powerful, so they¡¯ll certainly win this case no matter what, she thought. ¡°You-¡± The other students never imagined Christine would be so unscrupulous, but now, they were more worried about how their parents would react upon finding out about this. ¡®Now that the civilint has been filed, what about the evidence that Cas sandra has? ¡®Has our parents seen it? ¡°What''s gonna happen if they did!¡¯ they brooded in fear. The more they thought about it, the more afraid they were. With that, everyone went home one after another. Only Samuel and Christine remained leisurely and apathetic. ¡°Samuel, Cas sandra has seriously gone too far this time. She¡¯s even suing you.¡± Anyone who could get into an elite school was not to be underestimated, albeit Christine didn¡¯t know Samuel''s true identity. Fri, 16 Feb M Chapter 17 Nevertheless, ording to how Yulissa often buttered up to him, Christine reckoned his identity must be influential. ¡°Well, you guys are being sued too, no?¡± Samuel¡¯s countenance didn¡¯t look great, especially after he saw the video evidence. His ssmates had ganged up to bully a girl right under his nose. This was really a rude awakening for him. Thus, he was not at all innocent and, instead, the most terrible one. The perpetrators were undoubtedly abhorrent, but he who stood by and did nothing was no better. Christine fell silent, musing, ¡®Shouldn¡¯t youy your cards on the table at this time and fight to the end with Cas sandra?¡¯ Meanwhile, Jonathan personally handed the civilint to Edward, the principal. who was in for a headache. Jonathan was genuinely callous, showing no mercy even toward former acquaintances. uld you persuade Cassie to only hold the others ountable and leave the ¡°Jonathan, school alone?¡± Edward thought that everything was negotiable. ¡°Mr. Huddleston, Cassie has been in your school for two months. Yet, not only did you not know about it, but you even let her experience two months of bullying. Even if she doesn¡¯t sue you, | will. You''d best think about how to apologize to her.¡± With that, Jonathan turned to leave, leaving Edward to watch the former¡¯s carefree back view in helplessness.. As soon as Jonathan exited the principal''s office, he sent a message to Cas sandra: [All the civilints have been delivered to the defendants.] SEND GIFT Chapter 18 Chapter 18 The next day, Yulissa entered the school under the e of her brothers. However, to her dismay, nobody greeted her warmly this time. Everyone looked troubled, and, in fact, many students did not even show up She walked to Christine, only to discover that there was a clear p mark on thetter¡¯s face. ¡°What''s up with everybody, Christy? I¡¯ve only been absent for a day: Why does everyone seem to be in a bad mood now? Yulissa pretended to care ¡®Didn''t these people see meing? You people don¡¯t even know to take the initiative to greet me yet are dreaming about getting close to my family? What a joke¡± sneered inwardly. ¡°Lisa, didn¡¯t you say that you''re the most favored one in the Yates family Way¡¯s your family helping Cas sandra sue us, then?? Christine subconsciously felt that the Yates family did this After all, she didn¡¯t believe a country bumpkin like Cas sandra would have the guts and financial resources to sue the school ¡°Sue you? Did she sue you guys?¡± Yulissa¡¯s expression changed as she pondered about what was going on. ¡°Isn''t it your family who''s doing this to stand up for Cas sandra? Christine asked. Last night, Christine''s parents gave her a dressing-down when they received thewyer¡¯s letter and civilint. Her father had never yelled at her since she was a child, but this time, he actually pped her right away with full force Up till now, the p mark still hadn¡¯t subsided, nor could it be covered with foundation. ¡°How¡¯s that possible? My sixth brother Raymond had a car ident. Our whole fami was in the hospital yesterday, and no one knew about this, Yulissa said in disbelief. From Christine¡¯s tone, she learned that Cas sandra had sued everyone in the ss, but Yulissa didn¡¯t know why. ¡°Then, does Cas sandra know someone powerful? When my parents got thewyer¡¯s letter, they said that the intiff''swyer is the talented Jonathan Youngblood, who has never lost a single case that he took on.¡± Christine had been apprehensive all morning. With Jonathan¡¯s gift of the gab, the 1/4 Chapter 18 defendants would have no chance of defending themselves in the court session scheduled for three dayster, But if they were convicted, their SAT would be canceled, and then, ording to the rules of their school, she would end up being someone without even a high school diploma. ¡°Christy, | have no idea. How about this? I''ll ask my parents to per vade her to drop thewsuit, okay? Yulivaforted her ssmates. It was also her chance to make a good impression in front of everyone. ¡®As long as Dad and Mom speak favorably to Cas sandra, she surely be obedient Getting her to drop thewsuit is simply a piece of cake, the thought snugly. ¡°Yulissa, this... this is the civilint for you.¡± A student gave the envelope to Yolina with trembling hands. Yulissa¡¯s previously smiling face instantaneously shifted. ¡°What? F ucking hell. Cas sandra¡¯s even suing me too? Is the really not afraid of being kicked out by Dad and Mom? she wondered incredulously At this time, Cas sandra entered the ssroom because the morning self-study session would begin in one minute. Upon seeing Cas sandra, Yulissa hurriedly walked to her ¡°Cas sandra, why are you doing this? We are all ssmates. Why are you suing us?¡± Yulissa queried with tears in her eyes, sounding aggrieved in her silentint of Cas sandra. ¡°Didn''t the Yates family receive thewyer¡¯s letter? No way. Everything¡¯s dearly written on thewyer¡¯s letter,¡± Cas sandra replied with feigned surprise. ¡°We didn¡¯t receive anything. ¡°Then, thewyer must have missed it. Don¡¯t worry. Awyer will deliver it to the Yates residenceter.¡± ¡°Cas sandra, why are you doing this? If I''ve done something to upset you, please tell me, and I''ll apologize to you. Please drop thewsuit against everyone. They¡¯re all innocent¡± Yulissa pleaded. Everyone here was utterly moved by Yulissa¡¯s sincere words.

You can¡¯t ruin all their SAT just because of you alone!¡± Connor was totally thinking from the perspective of a teacher. There was disappointment in Cas sandra and sympathy for her in his gaze, but for the most part, he hoped that she would resolve things peacefully ¡°Mr. Zeller, whoevermits school violence and bullies their ssmates for a long time isn¡¯t qualified to take such a sacred exam like the SAT SAT was the fairest threshold for everyone.

However, it shouldn¡¯t be a chance given to these bullies, as they didn¡¯t deserve i Ignoring Connor, Cas sandra arrived at the principal¡¯s office and pushed the door open. ¡°Oh, Cas sandra, you¡¯re here! Edward hurriedly stood up and went forward to meet her. ¡°Why do you want to see me, Mr. Huddleston?¡± ¡°Cas sandra, | can¡¯t believe you. Why didn¡¯t your tell me you¡¯vee to my school? Also, why didn¡¯t you use the letter of rmendation | gave you?¡± Previously, Edward had written her a letter of rmendation and told her to take it to the school to look for him. In the end, though Cas sa ndra dide, she didn¡¯t use his letter of rmendation. He only discovered through his investigation yesterday that Cas sandra was the Yates family¡¯s lost child, but it seemed that she had been unweed ever since returning home. Nobody cared about her well-being after they enrolled her in the school. Hence, she''d been bullied for two months by her ssmates since her enrollment. Edward felt ashamed yesterday to see the video and the facts he had found. He always believed that his school was a very loving one. At least, he believed the students could get along peacefully, but the reality was far from it. As it turned out, the outstanding student he liked was actually bullied in his school! ¡°What''s there to tell you? You''ve found out now, too, no?¡± Cas sandra shrugged, sounding insouciant. ¡°How¡¯s that the same thing?¡± Edward said with hesitation. ¡°Cas sandra, could... could you ask Jonathan to withdraw thewsuit?

It wasn¡¯t as if she didn¡¯t give him a chance. Edward was rendered speechless. Indeed, it was as she said. However, he was merely in a dilemma back then. He hadn¡¯t refused to deal with it. He simply did not expect Cas sandra to be so resolute in her actions. ¡°Mr. Huddleston, if you¡¯re also trying to persuade me to withdraw thewsuit, just save it. | won¡¯t change my mind,¡± she said. Cas sandra would never back down in this regard. ¡°By the way, for these three days before the court session, | won¡¯t being to school lest you guys feel troubled with my presence,¡± she added. It wasn¡¯t as if Cas sandra didn¡¯t give them a chance. She had, but they didn¡¯t treasure it, so they couldn¡¯t me her for this. Yesterday, Cas sandra called the police first and exhibited the evidence before the police. and Edward. However, instead of asking her ssmates to apologize at once, they tried to make her, the victim, downy the issue. It was simply unreasonable how they expected her to move on from this without even an apology. When Jonathan handed them the civilints yesterday, he already reminded them that they should know exactly what to do during the court session three dayster. It was basically an implicit demand for them to apologize. s, the attitude of this group of people left a lot to be desired. They were still waiting for the Yates family to put pressure on Cas sandra to withdraw thewsuit. Well, you guys can continue dreaming for me to drop thewsuit,¡¯ she thought.Content rights by N?velDr//ama.Org. After exiting the principal¡¯s office, Cas sandra went back to the ssroom, took her schoolbag, and left without being stopped by the teacher because, in their eyes, she had 11:23 Fri, 16 Feb mu.

Not only did | not stop it in time, but | didn¡¯t even report it to the teachers. | deeply apologize for causing harm to you.¡± Samuel''s words reverberated throughout the elite school, and everyone from the junior high school department to the high school department learned about this. Samuel was not only the ss president of Honors ss One but also the chairman of the student union, which was why he had a spare key for the radio station. After the morning self-studying period ended, he went to the radio station alone and apologized to Cas sandra. His intention was not for Cas sandra to drop thewsuit. He was simply ashamed to see the video evidence yesterday, for he knew that what happened in the footage was truc and factual. Therefore, he believed people like him were the most detestable. Samuel thought of many ways to apologizest night, but none had the same influence as now. The school wanted to resolve things peacefully, suppress the matter, and even force Cas sandra to withdraw herwsuit. Thus, he decided he¡¯d help her for nothing other than as an apology. Samuel''s apology was heard by Cas sandra, who was in the field. Nheless, she merely snorted and left. Meanwhile, Samuel''s apology made waves in each ss, and the campus forum also became flooded with discussions. [Oh, my gosh! People in the honors ss-also engage in school bullying?] [I never thought I''d live to see the day that school violence happens in our school. It¡¯s a rarity.] 2/5 11:23 Fri, 16 Feb Mu Chapter 19 $70% [The point is, the whole ss actually bullied one person? Then, shouldn¡¯t this person reflect on herself?] [What nonsense are you saying? If we all bully you, will you think you¡¯re the problem?] | just want to know who Cas sandra Yates is!] | know who she is. She¡¯s the lost daughter of the Yates family! She was switched right after being born and only reunited with the Yates family two months ago But at Yulissa¡¯s 18th birthday celebration two days back, Cas sandra announced that she would sever rtions with the Yates family.1 Is she st upid? That¡¯s the Yates family, for crying out loud. They¡¯re also one of the top families in Drieso.] [If a real daughter is dered to be an adopted daughter by her biological parents, then it¡¯s reasonable she doesn¡¯t wanna stay in this family!] [But what does that have to do with the school bullying?] Cas sandra transferred here two months ago, but her ssmates regard her as a country bumpkin, thinking it¡¯s easy to mess with her.] My gosh, she¡¯s really pitiful, People in the countryside are human beings too, for Pete''s sake. What we cat is all grown by people from the countryside. My family may be rich, but my grandparents have always taught me not to be ungrateful and prejudiced.] If only everyone could think like you.] [Cas sandra has always been an adopted daughter of the Yates family! She¡¯s just an imposter who dreams of recing Lisa¡¯s position. Who does she think she is? Serves her right for being bullied!] [That''s right. Because of Cas sandra, Lisa cries every day and gets bullied at home. Lisa didn¡¯t even say anything about it. How dare Cas sandra have the check to use others of bullying her? She¡¯s simply shameless!] Samuel failed to see Cas sandra when he went back to the ssroom and felt a little disappointed, as he had wanted to apologize to her again in person. ¡°Samuel, why did you apologize to Cas sandra? She''s kicking up a fuss. We were just joking with her!¡± Christineined discontentedly. Samuel''s public apology would in turn be an admission of this matter. ¡°Samuel, did Cas sandra threaten you or something? Please don¡¯t be mad with her. S- She just feels jealous that our parents and brothers dote on me. She doesn¡¯t really want to fall out with everyone. After ss, I''ll apologize to her and ask for her forgiveness. Chapter 19 16 Feb M 70% She will definitely withdraw thewsuit. Please don¡¯t me her, Samuel.¡± Yulissa began to s ob softly while speaking. Samuel knitted his brows slightly, thinking, ¡®What is Yulissa talking about? Why don¡¯t | understand a single word?¡± Samuel responded in a deep voice, ¡°No one threatened me. | voluntarily apologized. | suggest you guys do so as soon as possible as well.¡± With that, he went back to his seat, ignoring Yulissa. An hourter, Samuel received a call from his mother. ¡°Thewsuit is dropped? Mm, okay, | got it.¡± He hung up the phone, failing toe back to his senses for a moment. ¡®Cas sandra dropped thewsuit against me? But why? Because of my apology in the morning? But | was sincerely apologizing, not to make her drop thewsuit. | could. confess and apologize in court andpensate her, he ruminated. Samuel¡¯s deskmate became a little overwrought. ¡°Thewsuit is dropped? Whatwsuit?¡± Everyone in the ss listened attentively, only to hear Samuel say. thewsuit against me. | won¡¯t have to go to court three days later.¡± ¡°Cas sandra dropped At this moment, Samuel finally understood what Cas sandra wanted-just an apology for what they did to her. Everybody was dumbstruck. ¡°Samuel, how did you do it? Why would Cas sandra drop herwsuit against you?¡± Even Yulissa couldn¡¯t believe it, thinking. ¡®Isn¡¯t she suing everyone? Why is she only dropping the charges against Samuel now?¡¯ ¡°I don¡¯t know.¡± Samuel really had no clue, as his mother didn¡¯t borate. She merely told him through the phone that he was right in his approach. It was only reasonable for the wrongdoer to buck up and apologize. Seeing that they couldn¡¯t get any answer from Samuel, the students all returned to their seats sulkily. Chapter 20 Chapter 20 Yuliss mood. came home with the civilint. When she was at the door, she adjusted her Her eyes were red when she entered the Yates residence. She appeared to have been sobbing for quite some time and clearly distressed. ¡°Lisa, what¡¯s wrong? Oh, my dear, why are you crying?¡± Miranda felt extremely anxious, worrying that Yulissa might have been bullied at school. ¡°Mom, why doesn¡¯t Cas sandra like me? It¡¯s okay if she doesn¡¯t like me, but hating her ssmates is going too far. She took legal action against all the students in the ss yesterday. What should we do? A lot of my ssmatese from influential families. I''m worried they may turn their anger on us. | know Cas sandra doesn¡¯t like me. | know it might be my fault for essentially taking over her life for 18 years, but | was young back then and didn¡¯t understand anything. If | knew it would make her unhappy, | should. have left when you and Dad took her back!¡± Yulissa kept crying heartbreakingly. In Miranda''s eyes, her precious daughter had endured great grievances. Hearing her, Yulissa¡¯s brothers at home all came over. Witnessing their baby sister int such distress, they all felt a strong urge to protect her and were ready to confront the person responsible for upsetting Yulissa. ¡°Lisa, what¡¯s wrong? Tell me. | will help you solve it.¡± Leonardo said softly, walked up to Yulissa and hugged her gently. ¡°Leo, please help me persuade Cas sandra. She sued not only all the students in our ss but also me. Does she really hate me so much? | simply cherish my parents and brothers and don¡¯t want to be torn away from you all. If she can drop thewsuit, I¡¯m willing to leave. I¡¯m 18 now and capable of standing on my own.¡± Yulissa leaned into Leonardo''s shoulder and wept in distress. ¡°Lisa, please stop crying. It breaks my heart. Can you leave this to me?¡± Leonardo''s tone was gentle. He was essentially a cold man, but he was extremely gentle to Yulissa. my ssmates to ¡°Really? Can you ask Cas sandra to drop thewsuit? | don¡¯t want all target her.¡± Yulissa looked as though she was still concerned about Cas sandra. 1. Chapter 20 Hearing her talk like this, Leonardo felt that Cas sandra was ungrateful. ¡°Don''t worry, Lisa. Leo said he would handle it. Everything will be fine.¡± Jasper alsoforted her. ¡°Yes, trust Leo. Lisa, stop crying. You won''t look beautiful if you cry too much.¡± Yohannes joked. Only then did Yulissa smile through tears, saying sweetly, ¡°Thank you.¡± Yulissa passed the civilint to Leonardo, who promptly ripped it apart without even bothering to read it. Seeing this, the butler remembered that he had received an envelope in the morning. But he was too busy to open it and see what was inside. ¡°Mr. Leonardo Yates, | received an envelope this morning. It seems to be the same as what Ms. Yates brought back,¡± said the butler, Robert. ¡°Give it to me.¡± Robert retreated and brought the envelope from the mailroom. Inside the envelope was awyer¡¯s letter and a civilint. Leonardo had no interest in the civilint. Since he nned to persuade Cas sandra to withdraw herwsuit, reading it was immaterial. However, the logo on thewyer¡¯s letter made him frown. It wrote [Drieso Perennial Law Group]. Jonathan? Why is Jonathan taking this case? He even drafted all the civilints himself, Leonardo mused. Leonardoforted Yulissa for a while and then went back to the study. Yulissa thought, ¡®Watch me, Cas sandra. How you can beat me? Dad, Mom, and our brothers will always be mine. | am the true daughter of the Yates family. You are simply nothing. Leonardo returned to the study and dialed Jonathan¡¯s number. He had previously tried to assign him a case, but Jonathan had shown little interest in taking it. The phone was soon connected. ¡°Hello. Who is that?¡± Jonathan asked. Chapter 201 ¡°Hello, Mr. Youngblood. This is Leonardo.¡± ¡°Who is it?¡± There was a brief silence at the other end of the line before Jonathan responded. ¡°Oh, Mr. Yates.¡± Jonathan asked, ¡°It¡¯s unexpected to hear from you. What brings about this call?¡± ¡°I''ve been informed that you¡¯ve taken up a case, Mr. Youngblood. | must apologize. My sister, still young and naive, has managed to cause you unnecessary inconvenience. Could | possibly request that you drop thewsuit? | assure you, the Yates family will not persist on this matter.¡± Leonardo spoke in a sophisticated way. He attributed Cas sandra¡¯s actions to youthful ignorance and imed the Yates family was inclined to forgive and retract the lawsuit. ¡°Mr. Yates, is this message from you or Ms. Cas sandra Yates?¡± Jonathan asked. ¡°Is there a difference?¡± Leonardo didn¡¯t understand. ¡°Of course, it is. If it''s your idea, I¡¯m sorry to say that | can¡¯tply with your wishes, Mr. Yates. If it''s Ms. Cas sandra Yates¡¯ idea, please ask her to speak for herself.¡± Jonathan was a smart and experienced man. It was typical for a wealthy family to make decisions on behalf of its members. Moreover, Jonathan only needed to serve Cas sandra alone from a professional standpoint. Regardless of the case¡¯s scale, he was prepared to litigate on her behalf. Asf for the supposed withdrawal of thewsuit, he wouldn¡¯tply with the request unless Cas sandra called in person from her telephone number. ¡°Mr. Youngblood, are you doubting what | said?¡± A hint of anger crossed Leonardo¡¯s face. He thought Jonathan was quite stubborn. ¡°It''s not like that, Mr. Yates. Ms. Cas sandra Yates has explicitly stated that unless she personally decides to drop thewsuits, no one else has the authority to speak on her behalf. If Ms. Ca s sandra Yates wishes to withdraw theint, please have her reach out to me directly with her phone number. | have something else to do, so please excuse me. Mr. Yates, good night.¡± Then, Jonathan hung up the phone on Leonardo. Leonardo didn¡¯t expect his request to be rejected. As it turned out, Cas sandra had already prepared for the possibility that they might attempt to withdraw thewsuit on her behalf. They had truly underestimated her foresight and determination. thing happened the day after. It wasn¡¯t until thest day before the court trial that he managed to meet Cas sandra when thetter was told to pick up her review materials from the office. The moment he saw Cas sandra, Leonardo got angry. ¡°This insolent girl! How dare she hide? If the school hadn''t called her back, she wouldn¡¯t have shown up. She made me waste several trips in vain, Leonardo thought with hatred.This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org. ¡°Where have you been? You didn¡¯t show up till now,¡± Leonardo osted Cas sandra immediately upon their encounter, letting loose a stream of demands. ¡°Hurry up. Call Jonathan right away and tell him you''re dropping thewsuit. You must apologize to all your ssmates and Mr. Huddleston after that.¡± He added, ¡°Lisa fell ill because you sued her. Go home and apologize to her immediately!¡± Cas sandra looked at Leonardo speechlessly. Is this really the CEO of Yates Group? Why does he look like an idiot? What nonsense is he speaking here?¡¯ she wondered. Cas sandra ignored him and walked straight to the campus. Leonardo waspletely ignored. ¡°Cas sandra, what¡¯s wrong with you? | came to see you. You should be grateful instead of putting an air in front of me!¡± Leonardo was furious. ¡®Doesn''t she want to return to the Yates residence and be taken seriously? | can grant her wish!¡± he thought. Once Cas sandra withdrew thewsuit and returned to the Yates residence, Leonardo would send her to a significant ce, allowing her to relish the experience of being taken seriously. ¡°Mr. Yates, have you been lost in your daydreams? Why are you spouting such nonsense. in this location? Do you ever hear what you''re saying?¡± Cas sandra said. ¡°Cas sandra, what will it take for you to withdraw thewsuit?¡± Leonardo questioned. If Jonathan hadn¡¯t been insistent on Cas sandra personally withdrawing thewsuit, Leonardo wouldn¡¯t have bothered toe here. ¡°You feel overlooked since your return to the Yates family, right? | guarantee that if you 13 11:23 Fri, 16 Feb MU Chapter 20 come back and show the same affection towards Lisa as we do, treating her like your own sister, we will treat you well.¡± Cas sandra burst outughing and looked at Leonardo sarcastically. ¡°Mr. Yates, does the Yates family hold some form of hereditary throne that one is to inherit? Is Yulissa next in line, and thus, everyone must bend over backwards to amodate her?¡± 5/5 Chapter 21 Chapter 21 Cas sandra thought Leonardo¡¯s words were ridiculous. What did he mean by saying they would treat her well as long as she showed the same affection towards Yulissa as they did? If Cas sandra were still the poor girl who was eager for love, he might be able to convince her, but that Cas sandra died already. Cas sandra now just wanted to distance herself from the Yates family. ¡°What are you talking about? Lisa always speaks well of you in front of us and cares about you. Yet, you repay her kindness by insulting her? It seems that you have been bullying her quite frequently at school, too. Bringing you back into our family back then was a mistake!¡± Leonardo eximed sternly, clearly frustrated by Cas sandra¡¯s obstinacy and hurtful words toward Yulissa. He was tempted to exile her to Desert Ind right away. ¡°Mr. Yates, did Yulissa really speak up for me? If she did, why did you always punish me harder? What did | do wrong? Did you see my mistake with your own eyes? Can you show me the evidence? It¡¯s as if the whole Yates family revolves around Yulissa. Why do you pretend to be impassioned in front of me?¡± Cas sandra asked. This was her own brother, who did not believe in his blood sister but believed the words of a girl who was actually unrted to him. He regarded Yulissa¡¯s words as if they were a decree from the queen. In that case, there was no need to feign nonexistent familial affection in front of Cas sandra. ¡°Lisa never lies. What she said about you must be true!¡± Leonardo eximed confidently and stood on Yulissa¡¯s side almost instinctively. ¡°That¡¯s right. She doesn¡¯t lie, but | do. Then why did youe here, Mr. Yates? If | remember correctly, | have cut off the rtionship with the Yates family.¡± Cas sandra thought it was ridiculous that she had engaged in Leonardo¡¯s nonsense for this long. ¡°What else do | expect to hear? Will they apologize to me? The answer is obvious. No way they will,¡¯ she reflected. ¡°Call Jonathan immediately and tell him that you want to withdraw thewsuit. Who do you think you are to sue others? Don¡¯t make a fool of yourself.¡± He found it ridiculous that Ca s sandra thought of suing everyone on her own. 11:24 Fri, 16 Feb mu Chapter 21 ¡°So young, so naive,¡± he thought. 9K 70%. ¡°Mr. Yates, it¡¯s not within your jurisdiction to decide whom | sue. | don¡¯t have time for you here. | hope Yulissa won''t bete tomorrow,¡± Cas sandra dered as she circumvented Leonardo and walked away. Leonardo''s face turned gloomy. Since Cas sandra refused to heed his advice, he had no choice but to resort to other forceful method. If she disappeared and couldn''t appear in court, thewsuit naturally couldn''t be proceeded. Cas sandra took her review materials from the office and left the school. However, the moment she reached the school gate, she was surrounded by a group of people. There were eight people in total. The leader said obscenely, ¡°Come with us, youngdy.¡± ¡°What if | don¡¯t?¡± Cas sandra thought these people should have their brains checked as they had the audacity to kidnap a girl right in front of the school gate in broad daylight. ¡°They are rampant! Do they think they are local bigwig, and no one can punish them?¡± she eximed silently. ¡°If you don¡¯t do as | say, then don¡¯t me us for not being kind to you.¡± The leader waved his hand and gestured his men toe forward to take Ca s sandra. Cas sandra¡¯s lips curled up into a sarcastic smile. It had been a long time since she engaged in a fight. A few people gathered around Cas sandra, intending to grab her, but she flexibly dodged them. ¡°Youngdy, if you don¡¯t cooperate, don¡¯t me us for being rude. Get her!¡± Amurderous gleam shed in one of the men¡¯s eyes. He swung the steel stick in his hand at Cas sandra. Surprisingly, she skillfully evaded it and swiftly countered with a powerful kick. The kidnapper was sent flying like a rubber ball, crashing heavily to the ground.Content rights by N?velDr//ama.Org. The man¡¯s eyes rolled up, and his body went limp as he fell unconscious. Seeing this, the leader was stunned as he recalled. ¡®Didn¡¯t Mr. Yates say she was a weak Fri, 16 Feb Chapter 21 girl? Jb However, Cas sandra easily knocked one of his men unconscious with one kick. He was momentarily at a loss. ¡°Everyone, go get her together!¡± The other seven kidnappers swarmed in, swinging their steel sticks at Cas sandra one after another. The scene descended into chaos. ¡°Ah!¡± ¡°Ah!¡± Aseries of piercing screams echoed through the air. Most could never imagine such at terrifying violent scene would unfold at the school gate. The would-be kidnappers were kicked to the ground one by one. Upon closer inspection, one could make out the imprint of steel sticks on several faces. It was surmised that in their chaotic scuffle, they ended up inadvertently harming their own.rades. Cas sandra stepped on the leader¡¯s arm and looked down at him, asking, ¡°Tell me who sent you here.¡± ¡°Don''t be too arrogant. Let me go if you dare!¡± It seemed the leader was reluctant to admit his defeat. ¡°Are you still shouting when you are defeated?¡± Cas sandra thought the man must be an imb ecile. ¡°You have two choices. Either you tell me who sent you here, or I''ll call the police and have you tell them yourself. The choice is yours.¡± The leader suddenly fell silent as they didn¡¯t want to go to prison. He and his friends had just recently been released from prison. Originally, they had no intention of engaging in such activities, but Leonardo offered them too much. He promised to pay them | million dors if they sessfully caught Cas sandra. They thought they¡¯d make a fortune, but unexpectedly, Cas sandra disyed formidablebat skills. ¡°| see you''re still remaining silent. | assume you choose the second option.¡± Cas sandra took out her phone and called the police. ¡°Don''t call the police. It¡¯s Mr. Yates,¡± the leader finally blurted out as he was scared to go 3/5 Chapter 21 to prison again. ¡°Who is Mr. Yates?¡± Cas sandra asked. ¡°Leonardo Yates from the Yates family in Drieso,¡± the leader answered. Cas sandra snorted coldly. A sudden chill seemed to descend around her. ¡°Why does he want to kidnap me?¡± she asked again. away, lock ¡°| don¡¯t know. He didn¡¯t say anything. He just asked us to take you two days and nights, and then hand you over to him,¡± the leader replied. you up for After getting the information she wanted, Cas sandra didn¡¯t make things difficult for them anymore. Instead, she walked away directly! She thought, ¡®Leonardo, you''re really something! You im to be a good citizen and are promoted by the media as an outstanding youth. Yet, you resorted to such ant underhanded tactic. | will make sure you be famous. After Leonardo arranged for people to take Cas sandra away, he rushed to thepany to work. He only remembered this matter when he came home at night. He wondered if Cas sandra had been caught. He dialed the number of the kidnapper in charge and asked, ¡°Have you caught her?¡± ¡°We... we did,¡± the man on the other end of the phone answered. ¡°Great to hear,¡± Leonardo said. ¡°Mr. Yates, may | ask why you asked us to kidnap this girl?¡± the kidnapper asked. ¡°She wants to sue my sister. | want to teach her a lesson,¡± Leonardo blurted out. Leonardo didn¡¯t harbor any doubts. He believed the matter had been resolved. Consequently, he instructed Yulissa to attend court tomorrow. Yulissa asked sadly, ¡°Leo, can¡¯t you persuade Cas sandra to withdraw thewsuit?¡± ¡°Just attend the court tomorrow. She won¡¯t show up.¡± Cas sandra was kidnapped. How could she show up? ¡°Really?¡± Yulissa wasn¡¯t sure. ¡°Really. Don¡¯t be afraid. Everything will be fine.¡± Leonardo dotingly caressed Yulissa¡¯s head. 4/5 Chapter 21 ¡°Okay, | believe you, Leo.¡± Yulissa nodded obediently. She then informed all the students in the ss about it and reassured them that Cas sandra would not be present tomorrow. It was akin to thewsuit being dropped, and they could simply attend it. SEND GIFT Chapter 22 Chapter 22 The following day marked the trial, and all the students from Honors ss One were in attendance. Samuel, whom Cas sandra had withdrawn thewsuit against, was also present. All the students were apanied by their families. With Cas sandra¡¯s absence, the charge would be considered null, allowing the possibility of seekingpensation from her. Among those seeking justice was the Yates family, supporting Yulissa. How could they stay at home while their beloved daughter was unjustly sued by an ingrate in their eyes? But they didn¡¯t worry much because Leonardo had settled the matter. At nine o''clock, as the court session began, the panel of judges took their positions, and,wyers from both sides were present. ¡°The intiff, Cas sandra, please make your statement.¡± There was no response. Leonardo sat in the family and friends section, wearing a smile. ¡°There¡¯s no way Cas sandra cane, he thought. ¡°intiff Cas sandra Yates?¡± the judge asked again. Sure enough, no response came this time either. ¡°Mr. Youngblood, where is your client?¡± the judge, Hayden Fairchild, asked in a formal tone. ¡°Your Honor, please give us a moment. My client will be here in a minute,¡± Jonathan answered. The opposingwyer remarked, ¡°What a joke. ording to protocol, if the intiff fails to appear on time, it will be considered as conceding, and the intiff is expected to withdraw thewsuit and apologize to my clients.¡± In a deadlock, Hayden found it challenging to reach a decision.. With Cas s andra almost ten minuteste, there was a possibility of dering an adjournment or deeming the intiff to be withdrawing her case, as per protocol. Consequently, Hayden stood up. ¡°I hereby announce...¡±Content rights by N?velDr//ama.Org. Unexpectedly, the door creaked open, and someone entered. 15 Chapter 22 It was Cas sandra. 70% She intentionally dyed her entrance. Despite being near the door, she held back from entering the courtroom, allowing a sense of control to settle among the people inside. Her strategy involved making them believe they held the upper hand, only to later expose them to a harsh reality that would humiliate them. That was why she opened the door and walked in just as Hayden was about to adjourn the trial. Seeing Cas sandra, Leonardo was visibly shocked. The surprise on his face betrayed his thoughts. ¡®Hasn¡¯t she been kidnapped by my men? Why is she here? And she¡¯s here just in time!¡¯ ¡°Apologies for the dy, Your Honor, Cas sandra walked up to Jonathan, then addressed Hayden politely. Every gesture she made exuded confidence, and it seemed she showed no remorse for beingte. ¡°intiff Cas sandra Yates, you are ten minuteste. Please exin yourself.¡± ¡°| apologize for my tar diness, Your Honor, but | have apelling reason. Someone didn¡¯t want me to attend this trial, so they sent people to abduct me, causing the dy,¡± Cas sandra exined. Her gaze shifted from Yulissa to the section where the defendants¡¯ friends and families were seated, ultimatelynding on Leonardo. Leonardo wore a grim expression. ¡®Does she know the mastermind behind her kidnapping? Even if she does, there¡¯s little she can do about it, he mused. ¡°Do you have any evidence?¡± Kidnapping was not a small matter, especially when the intiff was kidnapped before. the court session. ¡°| have the kidnappers¡¯ confessions, and the kidnappers are currently outside. Your Honor, may | sue the mastermind as well? Cas sandra looked at Hayden with an innocent expression, portraying herself as the clear victim in this situation. Hayden was stunned. After careful consideration of the panel of judges, Hayden stated, ¡°If it¡¯s linked to the defendants, it can be considered as part of this case and investigated collectively.¡± Yulissa was shocked by Hayden''s words. She wondered, ¡°Who could be behind Cas sandra¡¯s kidnapping? Could it be Leo? If it is, I''ll feel embarrassed once his involvement is revealed by the kidnappers. Yulissa felt her legs tremble, struggling to remain standing. Chapter 22 ¡°It''s rted to one of the defendants. It¡¯s Leonardo, Yulissa¡¯s brother. He orchestrated my kidnapping and promised a reward of 1 million dors to the kidnappers. | possess. the kidnapper¡¯s confession. Your Honor, you can listen to it.¡± Hayden motioned for the staff to y the evidence, and the initial part of the recording began. It was the conversation between Cas sandra and the kidnapper. ¡°You have two choices. Either you tell me who sent you here, or I¡¯''ll call the police and have you tell them yourself. The choice is yours. | see you''re still remaining silent. | assume you choose the second option.¡± ¡°Don''t call the police. It¡¯s Mr. Yates.¡± ¡°Who is Mr. Yates?¡± ¡°Leonardo Yates from the Yates family in Drieso.¡± Following that, the second part of the recording yed. It was the conversation between Leonardo and the kidnapper. ¡°Have you caught her?¡± ¡°We... we did.¡± ¡°Great to hear.¡± ¡°Mr. Yates, may | ask why you asked us to kidnap this girl?¡± ¡°She wants to sue my sister. | want to teach her a lesson.¡± Leonardo''s expression darkened upon the presentation of the two pieces of evidence. He didn¡¯t expect the kidnapper Sean to record their conversation from the previous night. All of this was orchestrated by Cas sandra. She intended to deceive him into believing that she was kidnapped and couldn¡¯t attend court when in reality, she had already handled the kidnappers. ¡°Cas sandra, why did you fake evidence to frame Leo? He is your brother, too. Even if hate me, you can¡¯t harm him like this. How could he possibly kidnap you?¡± you Yulissa was the first to speak, disavowing any knowledge of the kidnapping and implying that the entire scheme was orchestrated by Ca s sandra. By doing this, Yulissa could distance herself from the usation even if Leonardo admitted to the kidnapping. ¡°The kidnappers are outside, willing to testify in court in exchange for me not pressing charges against them. They took a check from Mr. Yates, which hasn¡¯t been cashed yet, 3/5 11:24 Fri, 16 Feb M1 Chapter 22 bearing Mr. Yates¡¯ signature and a timestamp...¡± It was a plethora of evidence. Everyone was present on this asion, except for Raymond, who was still in bed recovering from his injuries. It was toote for them to destroy the evidence. If Cas sandra hadn''t beente, she wouldn''t have forced them into this dilemma. Yulissa¡¯s face turned pale with fear, and she didn¡¯t say a word, but tears streamed down her cheeks. Observing Yulissa¡¯s tears caused by Cas sandra¡¯s aggressive tactics, the Yates family felt heartbroken, and it intensified their resentment toward Cas sandra. Hayden summoned the kidnappers to testify, and they disclosed the truth. They then. presented a check for 1 million dors signed in Leonardo¡¯s name. ¡°Is Mr. Leonardo Yates here?¡± Leonardo stood up in response to Hayden''s call. ¡°Your Honor, | firmly deny kidnapping Cas sandra. She¡¯s my sister. How could | kidnap her? It was just a prank. | didn¡¯t think she would take it seriously.¡± Leonardo tried to downy the incident as a harmless prank between a brother and his sister. ¡°Mr. Yates, this prank isn¡¯t amusin in the least. Honestly, do you genuinely consider me your sister? Would you even nce my way if | hadn¡¯t put beloved sister in the your dock? Your idea of a prank is certainly unique, Mr. Yates, spending 1 million dors on eight kidnappers just to jest with me.¡± Cas sandra continued, ¡°Moreover, if my memory serves me right, | have no connection whatsoever with the Yates family. Hence, how could | dare im myself as your sister, Mr. Yates? | might lose my life for it.¡± Cas sandra showed no mercy and revealed to everyone that the Yates family favored their adopted daughter. Leonardo couldn¡¯t maintain his fake smile anymore. He didn¡¯t expect that Cas sandra would dare to refute his words. ¡°Is she really not nning to go back to the Yates family? Does she think this will attract our attention? What a joke!¡¯ he sneered inwardly. ¡°Cas sandra, it is wrong of you to take legal action against your ssmates. Now, withdraw thewsuit and apologize to them in front of the judge, and we will forget about this.¡± Ridiculously, Leonardo yed the role of a concerned elder brother, adv ising Cas sandra to withdraw thewsuit in the presence of Hayden. Chapter 22 In response to Leonardo¡¯s unusual plea, Jonathan questioned, ¡°Mr. Yates, you threatened me and asked me to withdraw the lawsuit in the name of my client Ms. Cas sandra Yates. Could you enlighten me on the reason behind this demand?¡± Observing the prejudiced family, Jonathan couldn¡¯t help sympathizing with Cas sandra. 5/5 Chapter 23 Chapter 23 Jonathan''s questioning caused a stir in the courtroom. Everyone found the Yates family¡¯s threatening the intiff''swyer ridiculous. They started to discuss. Someone said, ¡°This was so bold. What was the Yates family thinking to threaten thewyer?¡± ¡°| don¡¯t know what''s on the Yates family¡¯s mind. Cas sandra sued my child. There must be an exnation. There are only one and a half months left before the SAT. | demand an exnation for such amotion to happen before the test, a mother said. Awoman beside her imed, ¡°That¡¯s right. My child is also among the defendants. | absolutely don¡¯t believe that my child would bully his ssmate.¡± ¡°There must be a reason. Even if my child bullied his ssmate, what¡¯s the cause?¡± a father echoed. ¡°Troubles target those who have ws. Perhaps, Cas sandra is not so much of a good student herself. Someone raised his doubt. Leonardo''s face wore a gloomy expression. He thought, D amn it! How could Jonathan say that in court?! | could be charged with obstruction of justice.¡± ¡°Oh, he turned to you?¡± Cas sandra nced at Jonathan with interest. ¡°Yes, but | would only withdraw thewsuit if the client requests it in person. | wouldn¡¯t consider messages conveyed by others. Since you''ve never called me, | ignored his request,¡± Jonathan stated calmly. ¡°Mr. Yates, why did you do that? Is it because of Yulissa? You kidnapped me because of Yulissa. | have to say that you are quite qualified to be an outsider¡¯s brother.¡± Everyone present recognized the sarcasmced in Cas sandra¡¯s tone. Leonardo sensed it too, but he remained indifferent. He wondered how Cas sandra, who had been cautiously ttering everyone in the Yates. family since her return, had turned out this way. ¡°She¡¯s my sister. Shouldn¡¯t | help her and her ssmates? Do you want her to have a bad rtionship with her ssmates like you do?¡± Leonardo used Cas sandra of being thoughtless and improper, thinking she brought trouble to her family at such a young and wasn''t concerned about the Yates family at all. age ¡°Do you know what your good sister and her ssmates have done?¡± Cas sandra asked. 115 11:24 Fri, 16 Feb Mu Chapter 23 ¡°Isn''t it you who are ying the victim after bullying them at school?¡± Leonardo said confidently. Leonardo believed a person who always bullied Yulissa at home must have bullied her a lot in school, too. He couldn¡¯t fathom how Cas sandra had the audacity to bring the matter up. It was simply outrageous. ¡°It seems that Mr. Yates and others in the Yates family didn¡¯t even bother to read the content of the civilint andwyer''s letter. Therefore, they assume here that | was the source of the problem,¡± remarked Cas sandra. ¡°If that¡¯s the opinion of the defendant''s family, then | would like to kindly request Your Honor to y our evidence,¡± Jonathan cut to the chase and continued after Cas sandra. ¡°Grant the intiff''s request to y video evidence,¡± Hayden signaled the staff member to project the video on the screen. It was a 10-minute video of Cas sandra being bullied. Since Cas sandra¡¯s first day at the new school, her ssmates had treated her harshly. Over time, the severity of the mistreatment escted, epassing almost every form of bullying except physical harm. They sshed water on her, tore her books, and even threw her table. They locked her in the restroom and stuffed dead rats and centipedes under her desk. All of these were done by the students in this ss. It was the first time that Edward had seen thisplete video. Only now did he realize the torments Cas s andra had been through over these two months... ¡®Isn¡¯t she good at fighting? Why was she being bullied? Who did all this?¡± he thought. He felt ashamed of his students. Once the video concluded, everyone fell silent. They didn¡¯t expect that their children. were one of the perpetrators. When they saw the wicked smiles on the familiar faces, the parents felt ashamed. After watching the video, L¨¦onardo didn¡¯t know what to say. No one ever told him the truth. But then he recalled that every time Yulissa went back home, she was covering up for Cas sandra¡¯s mistakes. 2/5 Fr, 16 Feb M Chapter 23 ¡®So what¡¯s this? And what does what Lisa said in the video mean?¡¯ he thought. It seemed like Yulissa was feigning innocence while deliberately provoking the other ssmates to bully Ca s sandra.This material belongs to N?velDrama.Org. ¡®No, Lisa wouldn¡¯t behave in such a manner. That certainly can¡¯t be her intent. She must have genuinely been attempting to help Cas sandra.¡¯ Leonardo refuted his initial thought. On the dock, as the students stood aside and watched the incidents reyed again, a sense of remorse crept in, making them realize the extent of their cruelty. ¡°Your Honor, | would ask for mediation on behalf of my child,¡± a mother said. ¡°Me, too. Someone followed her. They didn¡¯t know the truth previously and thought that they were the righteous party. However, it now became apparent that they were not. ¡°What is the intiffs opinion?¡± asked Hayden. ¡°What do you mean? Are you going to punish me like your children, or are you going to lecture me?¡± Cas sandra asked. Apparently, Cas sandra was reluctant to mediate. But that was her right, and no one could deprive her of it. ¡°No, no. We have known the truth and really want to mediate with you,¡± said a mother, standing up. She felt genuinely ashamed. After dedicating so many years to nurturing and educating. her child, she never anticipated that her child would bully a ssmate. ¡°Your Honor, for those who sincerely wish to mediate, | agree to it. However, | don¡¯t agree to mediate with the Yates family.¡± ¡°Cas sandra, you brat! What right do you have to disagree? Why did | give birth to someone like you?¡± Miranda stood up angrily and scolded Cas sandra. ¡°Your Honor, look...¡± There was no need to borate further on this scene. Members of the Yates family were aggressive. Leonardo, on the other hand, hadn''t said anything. It was uncertain whether he felt disqualified or didn¡¯t want to voice his opinion. 28) 11:24 Fri, 16 Feb mu Chapter 23 ¡°Then, as per the intiff''s request, the court will adjourn today, and a mediator will follow up on this matter.¡± With a bang of the gavel, the matter was tentatively settled. ¡°Mom, I¡¯m sorry. | didn¡¯t know Cas sandra hated me so much, and she even sued Leo. If | had known it, | would have apologized. It was my fault that | didn¡¯t protect her well at school. Yulissa cried ¡®regretfully.¡± Everyone thought that she really wanted to help Cas sandra and she just didn¡¯t know how to deal with these things because she had always been protected. ¡°Don''t cry, Lisa. It has nothing to do with you. That bi tch deserves it. Don¡¯t me yourself.¡± Miranda held Yulissa in her arms, feeling sorry for her daughter. Yulissa had never suffered such a great grievance in her life before. ¡®It is all because of Cas sandra. | will surely teach her a lesson when | get the chance!! Miranda thought.. In thergest mediation room, Cas sandra and Jonathan sat on one side and the rest sat on the other. The Yates family had to wait outside. ¡°Cas sandra, I¡¯m sorry. We only learned the truth today. | believed the one-sided story. and misunderstood you. How about this? | will ask my daughter to write a self- reflection report and apologize to you publicly. As for otherpensations, | will discuss them with youter, okay?¡± One of the parents¡¯ attitude was very sincere and she offered a heartfelt apology. ¡°Madam, who are you?¡± Cas sandra asked. ¡°I''m Yvette Zinke¡¯s mother,¡± thedy answered. ¡°Okay, | agree,¡± Cas sandra answered. That girl was forgivable because she had only bullied Cas sandra once. ¡°Okay, thank you. Cas sandra, don¡¯t worry. | will definitely ask her to hand over the self- reflection report to you on Monday.¡± Thedy thanked Cas sandra profusely. Cas sandra nodded in response. ¡®Look, what | want is simple. However, no one gave it to me, so | had to get what | want. in my own way, she mused. Chapter 24 Chapter 24 Seeing that, other parents realized that the solution was simple. As long as they could avoid further legal proceedings, they were willing to agree to almost anything. Moreover, what they needed was just a self-reflection report and an apology. More than half of the families apologized, but some felt Cassandra was making a fuss. They thought their children did not cause her any physical harm, so they did not understand why Cassandra was making such a scene. They did not really want to apologize, but a trial wasn¡¯t a pleasant way to solve this. ¡°Cassandra, since you have forgiven so many people, please forgive us, too. Our children didn¡¯t do all those things on purpose. Yulissa incited them.¡± They could clearly discern the truth from the ten-minute video. It was evident that following Yulissa¡¯s affected discourse, a number of previously undecided students became resolved in their intention to bully Cassandra. Ultimately, it was Yulissa¡¯s fault. Hence, she should be the one to be held ountable. Cassandra snorted coldly. These people were sly. However, their tricks were useless in front of her who was experienced in dealing with sly people. ¡°Madam, wasn¡¯t your child involved in the bullying?¡± Cassandra asked. After she said that, the atmosphere in the mediation room was awkward. Cassandra¡¯s blunt words had muted everyone present. ¡°Cassandra, stop twisting the truth. My girl said you bullied other students at school. She couldn¡¯t stand by and watch, so she took action!¡± a mother suddenly shouted. Cassandra asked, ¡°Who are you?¡± m the mother of Christine Lundstrom.¡± ¡®Oh, it''s her mother. It''s no surprise that she says so, Cas sandramented inwardly. After all, the apple did not fall far from the tree. Christine had negative behavior, so it was not surprising that her parents were not in any way better. ¡°Really? Who did | bully?¡± Cas sandra asked. 1:24 Fl, Tb Feb Chapter 24 ¡°You bullied Lisa. She is my best friend. Bullying her is equal to bullying me,¡± Christine said with a sense of great justice. Every time Yulissained about Cas sandra in front of her, Christine felt pity for her. Christine deemed Cas sandra not as innocent as she seemed. It was all her facade. ¡°How did | bully her? Despite being an adopted daughter of the Yates family, she has a room that upies the whole third floor of the Yates residence, with a closet three timesrger than my bedroom. Is that the way | bully her? Everyone in the Yates family favors her. Didn''t she tell you what would happen if | bullied her?¡± Cas sandra continued, ¡°Did shee up with any evidence of me bullying her? tine, you are a Grade 12 student, an adult. Don¡¯t you even have the ability to judge the truth yourself?¡± It was unthinkable that Cas sandra would dare to cross Yulissa. Even the slightest misinterpreted nce from Cas s andra could cause Yulissa distress for an extended period. Inevitably, those misguided Yates brothers would leap to Yulissa¡¯s defense, seeking retaliation against Cas sandra. Cas sandra thought, ¡®In the Yates family, bullying Yulissa is akin to courting death.¡± Even so, she was being scolded every day in the Yates residence. Yulissa had surely done an excellent job. ¡°Don''t try to fool us. Lisa said you are envious of the kindness she received from her brothers, so you consistently bullied her in private and prevented her from comining to them,¡± Christine said angrily. That was why Christine wanted to avenge Yulissa against Cas sandra at school. Cas sandra pped her hands for this. ¡®Brilliant! All the Yates family members are skilled in ying the victims. Birds of a feather sure flock together, Cas sandra mused. ¡°Indeed, | was afraid of her voicing anyints. A single misconstrued nce at Yulissa could cost me my meal. Daring to disregard her even once, and I''d find myself confined to a dim room. How could | let Yulissain about these? Whenever she cries in front of her brothers, I¡¯m the one who suffers. The Yates family belongs to Yulissa, not me. There¡¯s no need for her to remind me of that every day,¡± Cas sandra said. ¡°Christine, it''s no use whatever you say. | can forgive others, but not you!¡± Cas sandra added. BK 70% Chapter 24 A person who had not repented even now did not deserve her forgiveness. However, Christine¡¯s mother grasped the situation instantly. Her daughter was merely Yulissa¡¯s cat¡¯s paw. Everyone in the circle knew that the Yates. family pampered their adopted daughter as if she were the most precious treasure in the world. They even announced at Yulissa¡¯s 18th birthday celebration that Cas sandra, their own blood and flesh, was their adopted daughter. Given the treatment Ca s sandra received in the Yates family, no way would Cas sandra bully Yulissa at home. She w was almost sure that her daughter had been used! Thinking of these, she pped her daughter. ¡°You brat! Is that how your father and | taught you to discern right from wrong?¡± Christine¡¯s mother pped her daughter in the face, leaving Christine a little dumbfounded. ¡°Mom, why did you hit me?¡± ¡°Don''t you think you deserve it? Is that how you treat your ssmate? Did you see Cas sandra bullying Yulissa, or did you hear Cas sandra insult her? You didn¡¯t. Then why are you speaking up for Yulissa? Haven''t you watched the video closely? You''ve all been manipted by Yulissa. She imed Cas sandra bullied her, but how many of you witnessed it? Can¡¯t you judge the truth yourself?¡± Christine¡¯s mother was very angry. She always believed that her daughter would not lie, so when Christine exined the story to her, she chose to trust Christine. But after Cas sandra had finished speaking, she immediately understood everything! Without giving Christine a chance to exin, she interjected, ¡°Cas sandra, this is Christine¡¯s fault. | want to apologize on her behalf. Please spare her, as someone was manipting her. Don¡¯t worry. Until the SAT, | won¡¯t allow her to leave my home ore in front of you. After the SAT, I''ll send her abroad. Christine¡¯s mother nodded at Cas sandra, extending her apology. Cas sandra nodded in response, signifying her approval. Christine¡¯s mother pulled her daughter out of the mediation room, and unexpectedly, they saw the Yates family at the door. Her anger immediately red up. ¡°Yulissa, Christy is young and ignorant. She is simple. Please stop exploiting her kindness to achieve your goals! Don¡¯te close to my daughter ever again.¡± Then she took Christine away. Yulissa looked at Christine''s retreating figure with a pale 870%This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org. Chapter 24 face. Christine protested that she wouldn¡¯t go back and insisted that she was right. Soon, everyone left, except the Yates family. Cas sandra and Jonathan were about to go home when the Yates family stopped them at the door of the mediation room. ¡°Mrs. Yates, Ms. Yates, and all the Mr. Yates present, how may | assist you?¡± Cas sandra smiled contemptuously, an expression that could easily provoke others. ¡°What does it take for you to withdraw thewsuit?¡± Miranda said coldly. She did not think Yulissa was in the wrong at all, still looking at Cas sandra with disappointment and hatred. ¡°| will not withdraw thewsuit.¡± Cas sandra stressed each word forcefully. ¡°Cas sandra, | apologize to you. Please don¡¯t be angry, okay? Dad, Mom, and the brothers are all yours. | won''t fight with you anymore. Please don¡¯t be a angry. As long as you don¡¯t sue Leo, I''ll promise you anything. I''ll go back and move out now, okay? Please don¡¯t sue Leo,¡± Yulissa pleaded. Cas sandra found what she said ridiculous. She thought, ¡°Who is the source of the problem? Isn¡¯t it you?¡± But now, Yulissa twisted the entire scenario, making it seem like she was suing Leonardo for no reason. ¡°Well then, you move out immediately, and I''ll drop the charge against Leonardo.¡± Cas sandra would like to see what kind of trick Yulissa was going to y. ¡°Cas sandra, who do you think you are to order Lisa to move out?¡± Frederick said. ¡°Cas sandra, you''ve finally shown your true colors. You imed that you wanted to sever ties with the Yates family, but in reality, you''re doing everything possible to push Lisa out of the Yates family. I¡¯m telling you now, that¡¯s not gonna happen!¡± Jasper eximed in anger. If possible, he would have taken the scalpel and killed Cas sandra. ¡°Is that what you really want?¡± Leonardo asked, emotionless. Chapter 25 Chapter 25 Cassandra was rendered speechless. She felt like she was preaching to deaf ears. ¡°Whatever you think. I¡¯m sure you won''t part from Yulissa. So, just forget it. Don¡¯t put on a pitiful act in front of me.¡± Cassandra said. Jonathan nced at everyone in the Yates family and stated, ¡°I must remind you that my client is the victim in this case. Before requesting her withdrawal from thewsuit, consider whether you can overpower her with your influence.¡± Cassandra and Jonathan then ignored the Yates family and left. But in that instant, Jonathan had a video posted on thew firm¡¯s official Twitter ount. The video depicted Cassandra''s experience with bullying at the elite school, apanied by the caption: [School violence is a matter of great concern for both the state and legal professionals. Our victim, Cassandra, a recent transfer to Xemrich High School, endured two months of school violence from her ssmates. Despite calling the police, she was persuaded to seek a peaceful solution. Unable to tolerate the persistent bullying, Cassandra eventually feltpelled to turn to the legal system in self-defense. Our firm implores everyone to give school violence the serious consideration it merits. This video clip offers a crucial andprehensive glimpse into the realities of student bullying.

We also encourage your rigorous examination to validate its authenticity] Drieso Perennial Law Group was the only one with the audacity to present such a bold and unequivocal statement. For the first time, Perennial Law Group''s Twitter surged to the list of trending topics! Comments flooded in under the video. [I''m bbergasted! Are these people even human? | feel so angry when | watch the video that | want to kill them!] [Oh, my goodness! What¡¯s the school doing? What''s the police doing?] [Focus on the key points! The victim had called the police, but they didn¡¯t deal with it and merely asked the victim to resolve things peacefully. They were most probably afraid of making trouble for themselves!] [Tell me which police district is involved! Were the police even interested in serving people? A youngdy was severely bullied in school, but they advocated for a peaceful 1/4 Chapter 25 16 Feb solution. Did they even take it seriously?] [The policeman who was on duty at that time should be severely reprimanded!] (What¡¯s wrong with these students? What did Cassandra do to make them all target her?] There is no reason for school violence, but these people are really vicious. Is that how the school teaches their students?] | know some information. I¡¯m from this school, but | am a freshman. A few days ago, one of the victim¡¯s ssmates came out to apologize publicly on the radio station. It was their ss president!] | remember it too after the reminder from the previousment. | am also in this school. I¡¯m Grade 12. | saw the police a few days ago. ording to what the blogger said, it should be Cassandra who called the police. It seems that after the police learned about the situation, they advised Cassandra not to make a big deal out of it, saying that it would affect the ss¡¯s performance on the SAT. However, ording to others, the perpetrators didn¡¯t even issue an apology to the victim!] (Are you telling the truth? The police went over, but they didn¡¯t even ask the perpetrators to issue an apology?] Reply to the previousment: I¡¯m not sure. All | know is that the police came the other day, right the day before the student issued a public apology on the radio station!]N?velDrama.Org owns this text. Does the school even bother?

No wonder the evidence was made public!] 70% | don¡¯t know what to say anymore. | can¡¯t believe they even kidnapped the victim!] I''m utterly bbergasted. How can a perpetrator be sowless? Do they have someone in high ces covering for them? Could someone from the Public Integrity Section investigate their background? Is there anyone in authority who has epted bribes and thus turned a blind eye to the bullying? Is that why the perpetrator¡¯s family is acting so brazenly?] It must be the girl who added fuel to the fire with her words. She didn¡¯t apologize and probably thought she was right!] | think so too. It must be her!] This girl is truly malicious. The ones who engaged in the bullying might appear evil on the surface, but this girl is rotten to the core!] Please perform a strict investigation on this case! | hope Cassandra is all right.] Perennial Law Group posted another tweet: [We appreciate your concern. We''re relieved to report that our client is safe, and the culprits have given full confessions. In a gesture acknowledging their genuine remorse, Cassandra has requested each of them to carry out fifty good deeds, to be duly recorded. We turn to our onlinemunity for their oversight in this matter.] Along with this update, they tagged a newly created Twitter ount dedicated to documenting the good deeds of the former kidnappers. [Okay, I''ll supervise!] [I''ll supervise!] [Maintain daily updates! They can¡¯t afford to miss a single good deed.] Meanwhile, the Yates family walked out of thew firm with their faces full of anger. Suddenly, Benjamin and Leonardo¡¯s phones rang at the same time! ¡°What?¡± Both of them eximed in unison and were shocked! ¡°Okay, | see.¡± They hung up the phone and looked at each other. The anger in their eyes could not be hidden anymore! ¡°What happened?¡± Miranda asked with concern. Chapter 25 ¡°Just now, the video yed in court has been posted on the Inte by Jonathan¡¯sw firm,¡± said Leonardo. ¡°Moreover, some of ourpany¡¯s partners recognized Yulissa and expressed their unwillingness to continue the coboration... As a result, four partners have just withdrawn their investments.¡± Benjamin looked visibly distressed. The four partners were major yers in crucial industries, and their withdrawal would result in losses totaling tens of millions of dors. ¡®Da mn it, Cassandra! | shouldn¡¯t have let her back in the first ce. She¡¯s disobedient and makes trouble everywhere!¡¯ Benjamin thought. ¡°Withdrew their investment?¡± Miranda widened her eyes disbelief! ¡°Well, ording to preliminary calctions, the loss is 120 million dors.¡± Benjamin got even angrier after saying that. ¡°D amn Cassandra! She''s such a jinx!¡± Miranda said fiercely. ¡°Dad, Mom, I''m sorry. It¡¯s all my fault. If | had stopped my ssmates in time, | wouldn¡¯t have let Cassandra get hurt. Now, it¡¯s also my fault that thepany is involved...¡± She continued, I''ll apologize right away. I¡¯m going to kneel down and apologize to her, begging her not to sue Leo. If she doesn¡¯t want to see me, I''ll leave now.¡± Yulissa was frightened. She hadn''t anticipated the repercussions to be so severe. Therefore, she took the me and cried! Now, Benjamin and Miranda hated Cassandra even more! ¡°My dear Lisa, why are you so kind? Are you trying to break my heart?¡± Miranda held Yulissa in her arms and gently patted her back tofort her. SEND GIFT Chapter 26 Chapter 26 ¡°This ingrate! I''ll teach her a lesson today!¡± Benjamin was trembling with anger! It had only been a short time, and the Yates family had lost a few hundred million dors. Benjamin thought Cassandra must havee to bring bad luck to the Yates. family. ¡°Dad, let''s go together. Cassandra must give us an exnation for this,¡± said Leonardo. He had always been the one suing others and winning thewsuits. Hence, he didn¡¯t expect to lose in Cassandra¡¯s hand. He had underestimated her this time. However, this didn¡¯t mean that she could harm the interests of the Yates family. ¡°Yes, let¡¯s go together. Cassandra is so unruly.¡± Jasper agreed. ¡°But where does she live?¡± Yulissa suddenly asked. Everyone was dumbfounded. Nobody knew where Cassandra lived. She left the Yates residence long ago, but no one knew where she lived. Moreover, no one knew where she obtained over 200 thousand dors, which she sent to the Yates residence. The Yates family wondered if Cassandra had h ooked up with a rich man outside. ¡°Lisa, do you know where she lives?¡± Miranda asked softly. ¡°Mom, I¡¯m sorry. | don¡¯t know where Cassandra lives, but when Ray was racing before, she and his opponent were together. | guess Ray knows that person,¡± Yulissa answered. ¡°Together with Raymond''s opponent? It seems that Cassandra did have something to do with what happened to Ray''s hand. D amn it! | wish she¡¯s dead!¡¯ Miranda cursed inwardly. ¡°Let''s call Ray and ask him.¡± Matthew then called Raymond. The phone was answered in seconds. ¡°Matt, what¡¯s up?¡± Raymond asked. ¡°Who''s the person you were racing with?¡± Matthew asked. 11:25 Fri, 16 Feb M Chapter 26 ¡°Jeremiah, what''s the matter?¡± Raymond spoke of Jeremiah with hatred. ¡°Do you know where he lives? We need to find Cassandra, but we don¡¯t know where she stays. Perhaps he knows her whereabouts.¡± ¡°Jeremiah is from Whitecrane Hall. You can only look for him in Whitecrane Hall. | don¡¯t know where he lives,¡± said Raymond. He sent someone for an investigation and obtained this piece of information after he lost the first game against Jeremiah. He only knew Jeremiah was from Whitecrane Hall, but no one knew his true identity. After hanging up the phone, Matthew was stunned for a moment. Even though he didn¡¯t know Jeremiah¡¯s identity, he was aware of the significance and reputation associated with Whitecrane Hall. He couldn''t believe Cassandra had a rtionship with someone from Whitecrane Hall. Jasper¡¯s expression turned grim when he heard Jeremiah¡¯s name. Jeremiah held a pivotal role in Whitecrane Hall. While much of the coboration only involved Hugo, Jeremiah was the one who made the final decisions. He only made appearances when contracts were officially signed. The hospital Jasper worked at coborated with Whitecrane Hall before to purchase the medicinal materials. Unexpectedly, somehow, the cooperation was terminated in advance a few days ago. ¡°Then let¡¯s go to Whitecrane Hall. Benjamin decided immediately. Meanwhile, at Whitecrane Hall, concern was evident on Hugo¡¯s face. ¡°Jeremiah, has Boss returned home yet?¡± Hugo asked. It was inevitable that he felt worried, as it was the court session today. ¡°Of course. Jonathan sent her home,¡± Jeremiah said casually. The receptionistdy, Scarlett Anderson, came in suddenly. ¡°Mr. Lawson, someone wants to see you outside,¡± she said. Jeremiah raised his eyebrows and asked, ¡°Who is it?¡± ¡°Benjamin, the chairman of Yates Group.¡± This was how the visitor introduced himself. Chapter 26 Jeremiah¡¯s face instantly darkened. He didn¡¯t expect these people toe to him. ¡®Interesting, he thought. Jeremiah decided to avenge the grievances Cassandra had suffered against them. ¡°Take them to the reception room. I''ll be there in a moment.¡± Fifteen minutester, the Yates family was sitting impatiently in the reception room. Benjamin and Leonardo were wearing stern expressions. No one had ever made them wait that long. They were getting angrier with each passing minute. ¡°Everyone, thank you for waiting.¡± Jeremiah pushed open the door and entered the room, followed by Hugo. Despite thanking the Yates family for waiting, he carried himself with perfect ease and showed no sign of remorse. Yulissa was shocked to see them, especially Hugo! This was the old man who picked up Cassandra at the gate of the school before. She didn¡¯t expect him to be someone from Whitecrane Hall. ¡®No wonder that woman is so arrogant. It turns out she has h ooked up with someone from Whitecrane Hall, she thought. Yulissa perceived Hugo as some sort of butler. She couldn¡¯tprehend why Cassandra seemed to feel superior by having a rtionship with him. Jasper recognized Hugo, so there was a touch of respect on his face. ¡°What can | do for you?¡± Jeremiah spoke casually in an alienated tone. ¡°Mr. Lawson, may | know where my daughter is?¡± Benjamin didn¡¯t beat around the bush and went straight to the point. He didn¡¯t appear to believe that Jeremiah possessed significant capabilities. He addressed Jeremiah as Mr. Lawson merely out of politeness. Jeremiah snorted ruthlessly. ¡°Mr. Benjamin Yates, are you kidding? Isn¡¯t your daughter sitting next to you? Who do you want from me?¡± Benjamin nced at Yulissa with doting eyes. 11:25 Fri, 16 Feb Mu. Chapter 26 In Jeremiah¡¯s view, this scene was extremely ironic. ¡°I''m talking about Cassandra. Where is she?¡± Benjamin said bluntly. ¡°Mr. Yates, if your daughter is missing, go find her yourself. Whye here and ask me? I¡¯m not a police officer, so | can¡¯t help you.¡± Jeremiah leaned back, his eyes carrying a hint of sarcasm. ¡°My son saw you with her. Ask her toe out and see me,¡± Benjamin snapped. It seemed as though Jeremiah chose to do it the hard way. ¡°Dad, | saw Cassandra with the mister opposite me at the gate of the school. He went to pick her up.¡± Yulissa whispered, but everyone heard it. Hugo¡¯s face darkened as he cursed the bunch of people before him silently. How dare they scandalize Cassandra in front of him? ¡°You dare question Boss? She owns the whole of Whitecrane Hall!¡¯ you think ¡°Well, old man, how dare you keep my daughter as your mistress? Who des you are? Know your ce!¡± Hearing this, Miranda couldn¡¯t sit still. She abruptly stood up and pointed at Hugo¡¯s nose, cursing. ¡°Don''t talk nonsense, youngdy.¡± Hugo nced at Yulissa and then Miranda, saying, ¡°Mrs. Yates, you''d better put your fingers down. | have never seen a mother im her daughter being kept as a mistress without any evidence. This is ridiculous. I¡¯m older than your husband. Is it appropriate for you to say that?¡± Hugo said with a gloomy face. ¡°Who are you to scold me? I¡¯m telling you, give me my daughter immediately, and let us take her away!¡± Miranda looked like a shrew at that moment. Despite being elegantly dressed, she was rudely behaved. ¡°Mom, stop talking.¡± Jasper stopped Miranda. Miranda didn¡¯t know who Hugo was, but he did. Hugo could be regarded as Faye¡¯s assistant, and one could only get to Faye through Hugo. Besides, Hugo was also the nominal general manager of Whitecrane Hall. Such a status was more noble than that of Benjamin''s.This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org. And now, his mother was pointing her finger at Hugo and cursing him. ¡°Mr. Gardner, my mother is quite straightforward. Please don¡¯t take her words to heart. We just came to pick up my sister Cassandra. We didn¡¯t mean anything else.¡± 475 11:25 Fri, 16 Feb Mu Chapter 26 Jasper didn¡¯t care about Cassandra being kept as a mistress. Even if Hugo did keep Cassandra, the Yates family couldn''t afford to take any action against him. ¡°Dr. Yates, I¡¯ve seen you before.¡± Hugo greeted Jasper politely. ¡°I¡¯m confused. Why do you think the daughter of the Yates family is here?¡± 70% 5/5 Chapter 27 Chapter 27 ¡°You shameless old man. My daughter has seen you together. Don¡¯t try to deny it!¡± Miranda believed in Yulissa unconditionally. Subconsciously, she didn¡¯t think Yulissa would lie to her. ¡°Since your daughter is here, why do you ask me for her?¡± After Hugo finished. questioning Miranda, he turned to Yulissa and asked in a resolute tone, ¡°Ms. Yulissa Yates, did you tell your parents that | am keeping Ms. Cassandra Yates as my mistress? Why are you so malicious at such a young age?¡± ¡°Hugo, you know what? When Cassie and | went to thepetition that day, Ms. Yates. came up and asked me to let go of Cassie, saying that her sister was too young to do. such a thing. I¡¯m curious. What was Cassie asked to do?¡± Jeremiah said, then he looked at Yulissa meaningfully and continued, sarcasm evident in his eyes, ¡°It seems this is the manner of the Yates family. | must say, | truly admire your way of raising a daughter!¡± Yulissa¡¯s face changed, and then there were tears in her eyes. ¡°|... | didn¡¯t say that,¡± she denied. When Miranda and Benjamin saw that their daughters were being cornered, they immediately said, ¡°Aren¡¯t you ashamed to bully a young girl? That shameless Cassandra. has h ooked up with so many men. No wonder she dares to sue us. You are all backing her up.¡± Miranda¡¯s attitude made Jeremiah sick! ¡°Don''t you think it¡¯s too much to bully my daughter?¡± Benjamin said.This material belongs to N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Mr. Lawson, Hugo, ask Cassandra toe out and meet us,¡± Leonardo said in a deep voice. ¡°Sorry, | don¡¯t know anything about Cassandra or where she lives. Since you are her family, you should know where she lives. If she doesn¡¯t tell you, that means you''re just strangers to them,¡± Jeremiah remarked sarcastically. The family was so biased. ¡°You, ask your boss toe out and see me! Wouldn¡¯t he discipline his subordinates?!¡± Benjaminpletely forgot the nature of Whitecrane Hall. He had been yelling all this while. Jasper couldn''t stand it anymore. If they offended Whitecrane Hall, who would provide the medicinal materials for his hospital in the future? The hospital was already discussing coboration with Whitecrane Hall again at the moment. 1/4 70% Chapter 27 He had inquired for a long time about a kind of traditional medicine, which was only avable in Whitecrane Hall. He couldn¡¯t afford the consequences of offending them. Jeremiahughed. It seemed that the Yates family had be overly proud in recent years and no longer took anyone seriously. ¡°Okay, I''ll get our boss here. Come in, Scarlett,¡± Jeremiah said through the internal. phone. ¡°Mr. Lawson, what¡¯s up?¡± Scarlett was the receptionist who had just led the Yates family into the reception room. Jeremiah nced at the Yates family and said, ¡°They want to see Boss. Go get Boss.¡± Scarlett froze. ¡®No one dares to call Boss! Are these people here to stir up trouble?¡± she thought. But Scarlett, who had been in Whitecrane Hall for so many years, did have some insight.. ¡°Mr. Lawson, where can | find Boss? Isn¡¯t the whole Whitecrane Hall managed by you and Hugo? Your boss is Dr. Quirke. | have never seen him,¡± Scarlett said.. Looking ¡°troubled,¡± Scarlett said to the Yates family, ¡°The decision makers of Whitecrane Hall are the two people before you. Mr. Jeremiah Lawson oversees Whitecrane Hall in general, and Hugo serves as our general manager. If they can¡¯t address your concerns, your next recourse would be to wait for Dr. Quirke.¡± Anyway, she had never seen Faye in so many years. The Yates family was the first toe to Whitecrane Hall to stir up trouble. Benjamin and Miranda were stunned. They didn¡¯t expect the two people before them to hold such a significant status. Benjamin snapped back to reality, recognizing that Whitecrane Hall wasn¡¯t the kind of ce for tantrums. ¡°Do you hear that? Your only chance to meet our boss is through luck. | suggest you turn back,¡± Jeremiah gestured politely, ushering them to leave. Miranda fell silent at once. She didn¡¯t expect these two people to have so much power. 2/44 Chapter 27 Scarlett hurriedly opened the door of the reception room and wanted the Yates family to leave. Jeremiah ignored the Yates family, but unexpectedly, they bumped into Cassandra when they reached the door. ¡°Cassandra, | know you''re deeply connected with the folks at Whitecrane Hall. You shameless girl! You''re bringing embarrassment to the Yates family!¡± Miranda couldn¡¯t contain her anger upon seeing Cassandra. She had just been mocked by Jeremiah and offended Whitecrane Hall. Now she was attributing all her faults to Cassandra upon seeing her. You shameless girl! Miranda cursed inwardly. Cassandra didn¡¯t expect to encounter the Yates family at the entrance Hall. She came St at ere to arrange the visit to Pinchart Mansion for tomorrow. There were some things that she needed to rify with Hugo. She didn¡¯t know how the family discovered this ce. ¡°Mrs. Yates, since when have you been acting like a shrewd?¡± Cassandra looked unhappy. ¡°Cassandra, how could you speak to Mom like that? She scolded you because she¡¯s worried. We''ve been searching all day trying to find where you''ve settled down. Pleasee back with us. No matter how great it is here, it¡¯s not home! | just don¡¯t want to be separated from my parents and brothers. But if you decide toe back and can¡¯t stand the sight of me, I''ll leave. | won''t be an eyesore to you. I''ll be content as long as you allow me to visit home often,¡± Yulissa said softly, tears welling up in her eyes, as if she had suffered a lot of grievances. Cassandra was speechless. ¡°What is wrong with her?¡± she thought. ¡°Lisa, what are you talking about?¡± Miranda asked, clearly distressed. ¡°Lisa, you are our family. Don¡¯t talk about leaving ever again. If someone really needs to leave, it would be her. Matthew defended Yulissa. ¡°What are you doing here, then? Did youe just to get yourselves pis sed?¡± Cassandra frowned, her expression turning somewhat somber, ¡°Cassie, why are you here?¡± Jeremiah heard themotion at the door. Neither he nor Hugo had gone far, so they came out to see what was going on. ¡°| got caught up with something here. What are they doing here?¡± 11:26 Fri, 16 Feb M Chapter 27 ¡°They are here for you. | sent them away, but | didn¡¯t expect you to bump into them at the door.¡± Jeremiah exined. ¡°Ms. Yates, I''ll have them kicked out,¡± Hugo said respectfully. ¡°If you''vee to persuade me to withdraw thewsuit, there¡¯s no need for further discussion. Kindly leave, Cassandra said. As soon as she finished speaking, several security guards appeared at the door and escorted the Yates family away. The group went back to the Yates residence. ¡°Outrageous! Cassandra is helping outsiders deal with us. Da mn her,¡± Miranda said. angrily. ¡°All right, stop. Benjamin was thinking about the attitude of Jeremiah and Hugo toward Cassandra. He recalled the receptionist mentioning that Hugo and Jeremiah were in charge of everything in Whitecrane Hall, and the only higher-up was Dr. Quirke. In other words, Jeremiah and Hugo held significant positions. It was just that the people in Whitecrane Hall were very low-key, so generally, only their partners had ever seen them. Ordinary people didn¡¯t get the chance to meet them. However, Hugo was like an employee in front of Cassandra. Benjamin was wondering if Cassandra was close to them. It that was the case, he could allow Cassandra to be part of the Yates family. If they could secure a connection with Whitecrane Hall through Yulissa, the Yates family could get back what they lost days earlier. However, Benjamin hadpletely forgotten who caused the previous losses of a few hundred million dors. # Chapter 28 Chapter 28 70% ¡°Darling, why aren¡¯t you saying anything?¡± Miranda nced at Benjamin, growing even more furious. She couldn¡¯t understand how he could stay so calm. ¡°I¡¯m telling you, we can¡¯t let Cassandra go this time. It¡¯s getting outrageous. If we don¡¯t deal with her properly, she might end up ruling the roost over us one day.¡± Thinking of Cassandra¡¯scent attitude, Miranda wanted so much to teach her a lesson. It was uneptable to her that a country bumpkin pulled a long face at her. ¡°This matter needs to be handled properly. Punishing her is one thing, but the two people she knows, Jeremiah and Hugo, have an influential position in Whitecrane Hall,¡± Benjamin said. ¡°They''re just ying with her. Are you expecting her to bring wealth to the Yates family?¡± Miranda rolled her eyes and spoke exasperatedly. She simply looked down on Cassandra, considering her a country bumpkin whocked. manners. Cassandra had been provided with a wealthy lifestyle by them, yet she did not show any gratitude. She even went so far as to take her own sister and brother to court. ¡°| just want her to make up for the loss of the Yates family. If we can build a connection with Whitecrane Hall...¡± Benjamin was a little uncertain after being reminded by Miranda. ¡°Dad, isn¡¯t the loss of thepany caused by Cassandra leaking the video?¡± Yulissa reminded Benjamin in a low voice. Benjamin and Miranda became even more enraged upon hearing this. ¡°This da mn b itch, a total ingrate!¡± Miranda cursed again and asked Leonardo, ¡°Leo, do you have any good ways to solve this problem?¡± ¡°Lisa, what is actually going on in school?¡± Leonardo''s love for his sister could be blind but also rational. After watching the ten-minute video today and the attitude of Whitecrane Hall toward the Yates family, he felt that he had overlooked something. ¡°Leo, what do you mean?¡± Yulissa was worried that Leonardo might have discovered something. ¡°You used to say that Cassandra bullied you and her ssmates in the ss, but today¡¯s Chapter 28 evidence is contrary. | just want to know what happened.¡± Leonardo didn¡¯t mention that he felt what Yulissa said in the video was affected and provocative. ¡°Leo, how can you not believe me? | don¡¯t want to talk to you anymore!¡± Yulissa used Leonardo angrily and didn¡¯t intend to answer this question directly. Because she hadn¡¯t figured out how to answer it to cover up for the lies she had made previously. The school¡¯s surveince records were updated on a weekly basis, and automatically purged each week to make space for new data. She was utterly bewildered at how theprehensive surveince footage covering the past two months emerged all at once. This was unbelievable, and it caught her off guard. ¡°Lisa, | didn¡¯t mean anything else. | just want to make this clear. | know you won¡¯t bully Cassandra, but... He was just trying to figure the situation out. That was all. ¡°Leo, | don¡¯t know anything about the video. But every time Cassandra spoke ill of her ssmates at school, there were witnesses. She always imed that she was the youngdy of the Yates family and said that I... | was adopted, and you will send me away. sooner orter. Dad, Mom, was Cassandra telling the truth? If so, I¡¯ll leave now and won''t make trouble for you.¡± Yulissa burst into tears as if she had suffered great grievances. However, when the Yates family heard this, they thought Yulissa had indeed suffered great grievances. Benjamin mmed the table in anger. ¡°How dare she talk nonsense outside!¡± Benjamin gritted his teeth angrily. Is ¡°Lisa, it¡¯s my fault. | shouldn¡¯t have asked you this question. I¡¯m sorry. | will avenge your grievance,¡± Leonardo said. ¡®So this is the truth. Cassandra, you shouldn¡¯t have messed with Lisa. She¡¯s sister!¡± Leonardo thought. my only ¡°Leo, please don¡¯t me Cassandra. It was my fault. If | had a choice, | wouldn¡¯t havee to the Yates family and taken you guys away from her. | feel sorry for her.¡± Yulissa¡¯s words pained their hearts even more. ¡®How could Cassandra, that ungrateful brat, not cherish a good sister like Lisa?¡¯ they 4 Chapter 28 thought. The Yates family decided that since Cassandra refused to acknowledge Yulissa as her sister, they wouldn''t acknowledge Cassandra as a member of their family. ¡°Darling, make a statement and sever your rtionship with Cassandra. She is no longer part of the Yates family!¡± Miranda spoke with determination. ¡°Okay. I''ll do it,¡± Benjamin said. The next morning, as promised, Faye was going to Pinehart Mansion to treat the patient. Cassandra put on her disguise as Faye Quirke and walked out of Whitecrane Hall with Hugo, but she didn¡¯t expect to see a Rolls-Royce Phantom parked at the door. The corner of Cassandra¡¯s lips twitched. She found the arrangement too ostentatious. ¡®Isn¡¯t Rolls-Royce too formal? I¡¯m just there to treat a patient!¡¯ she thought. ¡°Dr. Quirke, long time no see.¡± It was Keh. Keh got out from the backseat of the car. Sure enough, Yannick was in the driver¡¯s seat. ¡°Mr. Zelinski, it¡¯s been a while. Sorry to trouble you to pick us up in person, Hugo greeted Keh first. Knowing that Cassandra was averse to trouble, Hugo was the one who handled the social aspects of the work. ¡°It''s my honor to pick up Dr. Quirke.¡± Keh was in a good mood. Firstly, he was eager to see Faye again. She always evoked an inexplicable sense of familiarity within him. She resembled Cassandra, yet thetter insisted on not knowing Faye. Secondly, Kayden was in a positive me ntal state after receiving treatment from Faye. Aside from the inability to walk, he felt significantly better overall. Faye surely lived up to her reputation. It was worthwhile to hire the miracle doctor for treatment, regardless of the amount of money he spent. ¡°Then, let''s go,¡± Faye said calmly and got into the back seat of the car. Forty minutester, they arrived at Pinchart Mansion and met the patient. 11:26 Fn, 16 Feb M Chapter 28 ¡°Is this Dr. Quirke? | didn¡¯t expect you to be so young.¡± When Kayden woke up, he learned that his best friend had hired the miracle doctor to treat him. He was really amazed. After seeing the doctor, he was even more surprised. He didn¡¯t. expect Faye to be so young. ¡°You are in good condition. | assume you''re able to withstand today¡¯s treatment,¡± Faye said nonchntly. However, for some reason, Keh could read a trace of danger and gloating in Faye¡¯s tone. ¡°Don''t worry, Dr. Quirke. | can bear any pain. Acupuncture is just a piece of cake to me,¡± Kayden said and didn¡¯t seem to be bothered by the uing treatment. ¡®It''s just acupuncture. When | came back from my mission back then, | used to do acupuncture. It was veryfortable!¡¯ he thought. ¡°Great to hear that. Mr. Yates, please take off your top.¡± Kayden fell silent. He was hesitant.. ¡®Is that really necessary?¡¯ he thought.This material belongs to N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Dr. Quirke...¡± he tried to negotiate. ¡°There isn¡¯t enough space for me to perform acupuncture on your hands and head. Do. it right away. Don¡¯t waste my time,¡± Faye expressed her dissatisfaction with Kayden¡¯s hesitant response. ¡®Well, alright then... After all, we¡¯re all men here. There¡¯s no issue with undressing in front of each other. But why does this situation feel so ufortable? Could it be that Dr. Quirke¡¯s striking eyes intimidate me, making me worry about myck of a muscr physique turning into an eyesore? he thought. SEND GIFT Chapter 29 Chapter 29 Cassandra inserted the needle, and Kayden immediately winced in pain. He pondered, ¡°Why not just knock me out? In that case, it wouldn¡¯t hurt anymore. ¡°Dr. Quirke, can you please be more gentle with me... He had thought Faye was a kind person. ¡°If you say one more word and interrupt my acupuncture, I''ll mute you with my needles.¡± Kayden was quite talkative and could easily rival the chattiness of the Yates family. Cassandra found it annoying. ¡°Kayden... Keh frowned. Kayden was the vice team leader of Falcon Special Operations Force. It was quite embarrassing for him to yell and cry due to acupuncture. Kayden fell silent. He seriously doubted that Faye had inserted the needle into his most sensitive spot as he was in almost unbearable pain. After a while, Kayden¡¯s back and hands were covered in needles, resembling a hedgehog. Yannick found the scene quite amusing. Kaydeny on the bed with needles covering his body, screaming in pain. If this scene were to circte within Falcon Special Operations Force, he would undoubtedly be the subject of mockery for an entire year. A photo of this moment might even be asting smudge in Kayden¡¯s life. He couldn¡¯t move now, anyway. It was perfect timing to pull up a stunt like that. Cassandra checked the needles and said emotionlessly, ¡°We will remove them in half an hour. Thank you. Dr. Quirke.¡± Despite being in terrible pain, Kayden still thanked her. Cassandra ignored Kayden¡¯s gratitude because she took money to treat him. 13 Fn, 16 Feb Chapter 29 ¡°Did you get the telegraph nt?¡± ¡°| have two of them. We managed to buy them at the auction.¡± Although Keh¡¯s tone was t, Kayden was sure that it was the gentlest word he had ever heard from Keh. ¡°Yannick, take the telegraph nts to Dr. Quirke.¡± Hearing this, Cassandra was delighted. She couldn¡¯t believe that Keh had managed to buy the nts. Sure enough, money could solve everything- Cassandra took over the telegraph nts and checked them carefully. After confirming that they were genuine, she said leisurely, ¡°The poison in Mr. Yates¡¯ body will be removed through one more session of acupuncture. Ten dayster, | will start treating his leg.¡± Since Cassandra had taken the nts, she felt obliged to treat Kayden¡¯s leg. ¡°Dr. Quirke, does that mean there is still hope for my leg?¡± Hearing that Faye would. treat his legs ten dayster, Kayden immediately became excited. This meant he could. still stand up! Over the past two sober days, he had gradually epted the fact that his legs were disabled. He did not expect that there would be a cure. ¡°Didn''t Mr. Zelinski tell you?¡± Cassandra raised her eyebrows, ncing at Kayden and then at Keh with an amused expression. ¡°Keh, why didn¡¯t you tell me? Do you know how sad | have been looking at my broken legs these days?¡± Kayden¡¯s eyes widened as he looked at Keh. ¡®How could he keep it from me?!¡± Kayden thought. ¡°| just got the ntsst night. What are you talking about?¡± Keh was unhappy and wondered when Kayden could stop being so noisy.. ¡°Remember to pay for the medicinal materials.¡± Kayden felt that Keh was cold and ruthless. ¡°Keh, please don¡¯t do this. | just woke up and | have no money!¡± No one could take Kayden¡¯s money away from him. Money was more important than his life. ¡°Then we won''t continue the treatment. Dr. Quirke, consider these two nts as my token of appreciation,¡± Keh said. Chapter 29 It was not Keh who was bedridden at the moment, so he did not bother. ¡°Don''t! I¡¯m just joking. Money is not an issue. How much is it?¡± Kayden, who was lying. on the bed, said generously. How could he not cure his legs? ¡°Not much. Two nts for 600 million dors.¡± Kayden was shocked. ¡®Aren''t they too expensive?¡± he thought. Cassandra believed that the two nts were excessively expensive. This made her feel a bit guilty about epting the nts. ¡°In addition to treating his legs, you cane to me if you need anything in the future. | will promise you one more request,¡± she said. After all, she felt insecure about possessing such expensive nts. ¡°Dr. Quirke, | paid for this. Shouldn''t you also promise me a request?¡± Kayden looked at Faye tteringly. He thought Faye would agree. He paid for the nts, after all. ¡°Yes, | understand. You''d prefer a gentler touch during acupuncture. No need to worry. You won''t feel any pain in the future.¡± Cassandra gave Kayden a knowing look, leaving him puzzled. Who wants this favor? Kayden roared inwardly. Keh chuckled softly. Cassandra nced over and noticed that Keh¡¯s wless face seemed even more handsome and gentle.. ¡°Hugo, in ten minutes, you can remove the needles for Mr. Yates. You don¡¯t need to oversee the medicinal bath. They can handle it themselves.¡± The implication was that Cassandra wouldn''t do the procedure herself. Then Cassandra closed her eyes to rest, cradling the two grasses in ss bottles like precious treasures. After removing the needles and returning to Whitecrane Hall, Cassandra dove headlong into theboratory. She finally had the medicinal materials to proceed to the next step of the experiment. Fri, 16 Feb Ma Chapter 29 She was quite generous with the medicinal materials she had acquired for free. Cassandra set aside a portion for Kayden and dedicated the rest of the nts to experiments. On Monday, in school, the radio station was turned on during morning sses, 70% First was the apology statement from Edward. In his apology, he mentioned that he was unaware of the bullying. This highlighted the unfortunate reality of education. As a principal, he failed toprehend the students¡¯ struggles and even condoned students¡¯ bullying toward their ssmates. Then, the students of Honors ss One apologized on the radio station, one by one. After reading their apology statement, each student would return to the ssroom and apologize separately to Cassandra again. These two days, they were being lectured by their parents at home. At first, they were still quite rebellious and thought they did nothing wrong. But slowly, they realized their parents were right. gas No matter the reason, as long as Cassandra did not bully or insult them, they had not right to take actions against her. Even if Yulissa were the victim, as she imed, only she could avenge herself. It wasn¡¯t right for them to bully Cassandra while Yulissa merely stood by and watched. Just as their parents said, in the ten-minute video, although Yulissa did not do anything. they began to bully Cassandra under her encouragement. On the contrary, Cassandra did nothing from the start. Christine, in particr, had received a stern talk from her parents after she went home. Apologizing at school today was challenging for her. Right after apologizing, she was promptly pulled out of the ssroom by her mother. Her mother assured Cassandra she would ensure Christine never crossed paths with her again. Christine¡¯s mother kept her word. Nothing was more important than the future of her child. ¡°Cassandra, I¡¯m sorry. We won''t do this again.¡± Many were aware of their problems and sincerely apologized to Cassandra. This made Yulissa a little nervous. #39:70% ER Chapter 29 Everyone was apologizing. She was at a loss for what to do. Apologizing to Cassandra was an impossible task for Yulissa. She wouldn¡¯t do it unless her life was threatened. Cassandra nodded to each ssmate, signifying her forgiveness. She did not spare a nce at Yulissa all along. ¡°Cassandra, it''s good that you forgive everyone. | have been worried about this.¡± Yulissa started to y the sympathy card again, making everyone believe it was entirely her effort and that she had convinced Cassandra to agree to the mediation. In other words, she should be the one others should thank for. ¡°| forgive them because their parents have vouched for them. It has nothing to do with you.¡±N?velDrama.Org owns this text. SEND GIFT Chapter 30 Chapter 30 Yulissa didn¡¯t anticipate Cassandra publicly exposing her. All she needed was an ambiguous statement and Christine¡¯s intentional guidance, which would lead everyone to believe that Yulissa w withdrawing thewsuit. In this way. Yulissa hoped to the reason behind Cassandra position herself as the benefactor of the entire ss. However, Cassandra candidly revealed the entire situation in front of everyone. Those who were initially surprised by Yulissa¡¯s sudden statement now understood her attempt to take credit for herself. They had never seen such a shameless person before. In the blink of an eye, the way everyone looked at Yulissa changed. There were elements of confusion, contempt, and incredulity. Yulissa felt uneasy under these gazes. ¡®It''s all because of you, Cassandra! It¡¯s all because of you that people are now looking at me differently!¡¯ she fumed internally. Yulissa felt aggrieved, thinking, ¡®I have to shift the me to Cassandra. Otherwise, it''ll be hard to justify my actions in the future. ¡°Cassandra, how can you say that? It¡¯s a positive thing that you¡¯ve forgiven your ssmates, right? Yulissa prattled on. ¡°Cassandra, can you refrain from targeting your ssmates in the future? We''re in the same ss, and there¡¯s a possibility we might attend the same university. Please don¡¯t take them to court again. I''ll apologize on their behalf if they ever offend you again.¡± The ssmates were deeply touched, thinking, ¡®Truly the role model we''ve looked up to for three years. Her grace and kindness are unmatched. In contrast, Cassandra appears petty and mean.¡± Cassandra found amusement in Yulissa¡¯s grand statement and retorted, ¡°Yulissa, have you conveniently forgotten why | took legal action against them? It was because they resorted to violence against me at school while trying to defend you. | endured bullying every day! Why did you say | bullied them? Ms. Yulissa Yates, hasn''t the Yates family instilled in you the ability to discern right from wrong? It seems the Yates Family¡¯s teachings are rather mediocre.¡± She mused, The Yates family seems to be filled with clich¨¦s and preconceived notions. Yulissa truly fits right in with them. 115 Chapter 30 ¡°Cassandra... You... They were just trying to stop me from being bullied. Please don¡¯t me them.¡± Yulissa¡¯s eyes welled up in tears, and she looked at Cassandra with a profoundly wounded expression. Her pitiful look instantly triggered a protective response from those around her. Several boys stepped forward, creating a defensive barrier around Yulissa, concerned that Cassandra might suddenly strike her. ¡°Yulissa, I¡¯ve been back at the Yates residence for two months. | want to know, how did | bully you? Did | physically harm you, insult you, or encourage others to iste you?¡± Cassandra asked. ¡®In fact, she¡¯s the one who pulled all that on me! What gives her the right to cry and y the victim when she¡¯s the one who brought this upon herself?! Cassandra thought. ¡°|... Cassandra has never been a bully to me.¡± Yulissa clenched her teeth, thinking, ¡®Da mn you, Cassandra! Just wait, I¡¯ll get you back for this!¡± The boys shielding Yulissa exchanged disbelieving nces, their hands dropping down in disappointment. ¡°Yulissa, some things need proof. Look at the surveince footage, for example. It would be updated on a weekly basis, but we managed to find footage of thest two months. What does that tell you? Whatever you do, you always leave traces. It¡¯s the same for what went down in the Yates residence. I¡¯m curious to see how the Yates family will treat you once they figure out who you really are. Will they still love you?¡± Cassandra said. This was something Cassandra eagerly anticipated. ¡®Don¡¯t worry, Yulissa. You and your six brothers will pay for everything you¡¯ve done to me in the past life. I¡¯ll settle the score with each of you, one by one!¡± she thought. Yulissa appeared visibly frightened. ¡°This is absurd. Cassandra is just a small-town girl. How could she have the skill to hack the surveince system? She probably hasn''t even witnessed such skills. She must be bluffing¡¯ Yulissa thought. ¡°Cassandra, what are you going on about? | already said you didn¡¯t bully me. Do you have anything else to add?¡± ¡°| feel sick just thinking about saying another word to you.¡± Cassandra closed her eyes. and settled back in her seat.. ¡°Cassandra... Yulissa whimpered. Chapter 30 ¡®Damn it, Cassandra! How dare you act all high and mighty in front of me? Get up and drop thewsuit! You might not care about your reputation, but | value my own. Argh, I¡¯m so angry!¡¯ she raged in her heart. After ss, Cassandra packed up her things and headed toward the school gate..This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org. ¡°Ms. Yates, I¡¯m over here!¡± Hugo waved his hand.. Yulissa witnessed this scene and recorded it on her phone. Unbeknownst to her, Cassandra had seen everything, including her trailing and taking pictures. ¡®Go ahead, take all the pictures you want and expose them. Once the truthes out, the Yates family will be even more miserable than they are now, Cassandra thought. Nevertheless, an unexpected visitor approached from the opposite direction. It was Leonardo. He came to wait for Cassandra, aiming to persuade her to withdraw thewsuit. As a representative of Yates Group, Leonardo was concerned about the impact of his legal entanglements on thepany¡¯s share price and partners¡¯ willingness to coborate. Currently, they had lost eight partners, leading to hefty setbacks. Their new coborator proved to be unreliable, bereft of practical experience and seeming to spend all their time on fruitless experimentation and idle chatter. Observing Leonardo''s somber expression, Cassandra wasn''t inclined to engage in conversation with him. Thus, she walked past him without acknowledging his presence. This sudden disregard left Leonardo in a state of gloom. Rarely had anyone dared to ignore him. ¡°Cassandra, stop right there!¡± Leonardo''s words went unanswered, as Cassandra continued walking as if she hadn¡¯t heard him. Frustrated, Leonardo quickened his pace, positioning himself in front of her. ¡°What¡¯s with your attitude? Can¡¯t you hear me?¡± ¡°Mr. Yates, what can | do for you?¡± Cassandra asked impatiently. ¡®Couldn¡¯t he choose a more inconspicuous spot?¡¯ Cassandra fumed inwardly. ¡°It''s dinner time. Let¡¯s grab a bite and chat,¡± Leonardo suggested. She thought, ¡®Only kids would fall for such a ploy. Does he think I¡¯m a three-year-old 3/5 Chapter 30 who doesn¡¯t understand anything? Hold on, when | was three, | was already tackling elementary school exercises. Clearly, we had different childhoods. ¡°Where are you taking me for dinner, Mr. Yates?¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t decline, but she didn¡¯t exactly embrace Leonardo''s invitation. ¡°I''ll take you for your favorite seafood,¡± Leonardo responded, subtly implying he knew Cassandra¡¯s tastes well. Cassandra found herself at a loss for words. This scenario triggered memories of a notorious video clip where a malevolent brother poisoned his sister andter cremated her remains. In Cassandra¡¯s previous life, Leonardo would lead her to Desert Ind shortly after the mentorship banquet and abandon her there. She endured solitude on Desert Ind for a month. Many believed her return signaled their salvation. However, Cassandra had been reborn, seizing control of her destiny. There was no way she would be duped into going to Desert Ind again, as had transpired in her previous life. ¡°That¡¯s absolutely impossible. Cassandra pondered, ¡°Would |, Cassandra Yates, fall for the same trick twice?¡± ¡°Mr. Yates, please cut out the pretense that we¡¯re close or that we share some profound connection, or that you know me so well. It''s enough to make my stomach churn!¡± Cassandra, maintaining herposure as a civilized individual, refrained from vomiting in front of Leonardo. Leonardo, perplexed, questioned, ¡°How can you not like seafood?¡± ¡®Didn''t she eat a lot of it?¡¯ he wondered. Cassandra sneered, shot a look at Hugo, and then turned her gaze away. Hugo stepped up, saying, ¡°Mr. Yates, I¡¯m not exactly in the loop about how Boss has changed since. she¡¯s been back at the Yates residence. But what | do know is that Ms. Yates is allergic to some seafood. Checking for allergens takes too much time, so she didn¡¯t bother to do it. But, truth be told, she just doesn''t like seafood. Mr. Yates, maybe you should reconnect with your real sister instead.¡± Chapter 31 Chapter 31 ¡°If you want to persuade me or want me to withdraw thewsuit, no way, Mr. Yates.¡± Cassandra¡¯s attitude was evident. After saying that, she did not say anything more to Leonardo and got in the car. Meanwhile, Leonardo quickly grabbed the door and opened it. ¡°Come out, let¡¯s have a good talk. Leonardo suppressed his anger and spoke to Cassandra as calmly as possible. ¡°Mr. Yates, don¡¯t hold back your anger if you don¡¯t want to.

This is ridiculous.¡± ¡°Cassandra, don¡¯t choose to do it the hard way. | told you toe out. Didn¡¯t you hear me?¡± Leonardo could not stand it anymore and roared. ¡®That''s it?¡± Cassandra said to herself. ¡°Leonardo, when you orchestrated my kidnapping before the court session, attempting to make me vanish and miss the hearing, turning thiswsuit into a farce- why didn¡¯t it. ur to you then to have a proper conversation with me?¡± After that, she added, ¡°Oh, do you think that I¡¯m still the same country bumpkin who used to be obedient before, Mr. Yates? You still think as long as you guys talk nicely and beckon to me, I''ll act like a bootlicker and listen to you?¡± ¡°The ¡°bootlicker¡± in the Yates family died at your hands long ago. You''re all murderers!¡± she eximed inwardly. Leonardo was stunned. He thought, ¡®An outsider like you is trying to assume airs, and you don¡¯t even stop when I¡¯m giving you some respect. Who do you think you are?¡¯ ¡°Let me guess what you''re thinking about right now, Mr. Yates. You must be thinking about sending me to some uninhabited ce. It had better be the so-called Desert Ind, a ce that has many ferocious beasts. Even if | were to die there, no one would care about me.¡± Then, she continued, ¡°You must be thinking of sending me to a ce like this, Mr. Yates!¡± Cassandra could/not hide her sarcasm and murderous look. 115 2/5 E Chapter 31 Meanwhile, Leonardo looked guilty for a moment. After that, he thought, ¡®How could she know so well? Did the men | hired betray me? No way. Other than the Yates family, no one knows about this. Then, how did Cassandra know?¡± ¡°What are you talking about? We''re a family. How could | send you to such a ce?¡± Leonardo gave a fake smile that looked hypocritical. When Cassandra saw it, she felt nauseous. ¡°rgh...¡± ¡®I''m sorry, but | can¡¯t help it, she mused to herself. ¡°My bad. I¡¯m disgusted by your shamelessness, Mr. Yates, so | couldn¡¯t hold it in,¡± Cassandra said. Hugo was in the passenger seat and almost burst intoughter while he watched them. Finally, Cassandra who left the Yates residence had returned to her former state. However, her eyes were full of hatred. He wondered what Cassandra had gone through in the Yates residence. ¡°Cassandra, you-¡± ¡°How can you say that to Leo, Cassandra? How is it possible that he will send you to such a ce? Leo actually wants to take you home as you haven¡¯t been home for many days.¡± Then, she added, ¡°You can¡¯t stay outside with an old man!¡± Yulissa looked full of disappointment. Cassandra was rendered speechless. She looked at Hugo. It seemed that Yulissa was right. Indeed, he was an old man. On the contrary, Hugo was so angry with Yulissa¡¯s statement that he hurriedly got out of the car. Then, as he stood in front of Yulissa, he blurted out, ¡°You always say that you¡¯re Cassandra¡¯s younger sister. But, as her younger sister, when did you ever defend her?¡± After that, he continued, ¡°What do you mean by staying outside with an old man? Didn''t you see that I¡¯m sitting in the passenger seat? You''re young. Do not make Chapter 31 irresponsible remarks!¡± ¡°What are you talking about? Apologize to Yulissa. You''re already in your fifties.

If you bully her, I''ll not let you get away with it!¡± Hugo continued. He was so angry that he was short of breath and almost fainted. Cassandra''s face darkened. She did not like to hear the word ¡°die¡±. Even if someone had to die, it would be them. ¡°Hugo, don¡¯t waste time talking to them.¡± The crowd started to talk among themselves. One said, ¡°I saw the entire thing. The old man approached was stopped by Mr. Yates. girl and called her Ms. Yates.

My sister¡¯s child happened to be in Honors ss One, and they were all sued by Cassandra. At first, my sister was angry and wanted to settle the score with Cassandra, but Mr. Youngblood yed a ten-minute video as evidence in court.¡± After that, the person added, ¡°In every scene, Yulissa was also there. She asked her ssmates to help her while acting especially weak and aggrieved. When my sister went back, she asked her son to exin everything clearly. Only then did she know that Yulissa distorted the truth. Their ssmates thought Yulissa was so aggrieved that they stood up for her!¡± Another said, ¡°What? That¡¯s disgusting Someone elsemented, ¡°No wonder the old man came out of the car to argue with her. Good job!¡± Chapter 31 One chimed in, ¡°She has malicious thoughts at such a young age. It will get worse when she grows up!¡± Another said, ¡°I wonder who will dare to marry that daughter of the Yates family in the future.¡± The sounds of the discussion grew louder. Yulissa heard everything and nearly could not maintain her image. ¡°Why, why?! I¡¯ve built my reputation as an elegantdy painstakingly. It can¡¯t be destroyed at this moment!¡¯ she eximed inwardly. ¡°Leo, | didn¡¯t. | didn¡¯t do it. It''s not true. You have to trust me.¡± Yulissa clutched her chest and looked as if she could not breathe. ¡°Lisa, what¡¯s wrong? Lisa!¡± Leonardo called out several times worriedly. Meanwhile, Cassandra looked at Yulissa who fell in front of her. The former thought, ¡°What bad luck! Even if she pretends to faint, she should have taken two more steps away from me.¡¯ ¡°Cassandra, are you still human? Can¡¯t you see Lisa faint? Come and help her.¡± Leonardo grabbed Cassandra. He did not want to miss this opportunity as he had to take Cassandra with him. Moreover, he had a strong feeling that Cassandra would either bring great wealth to the Yates family or make him lose everything. Therefore, this time, he did not want to give her another chance to run away. ¡°Mr. Yates, even if you and Yulissa want to team up against me, I¡¯m not afraid! But at least she needs to genuinely pass out to make it more convincing.¡± Then, without giving Yulissa a chance to react, Cassandra stepped on Yulissa¡¯s hand. ¡°Arghh! It hurts!¡± Leonardo was dumbfounded. ¡®Lisa didn¡¯t faint. So what was she doing just now? Was she cooperating with me to take Cassandra away? Or was there something else?¡± he wondered. Leonardo¡¯s final trust in Yulissa seemed to crumble at this very moment. 11: 35 Sat, 17 Feb This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org. Chapter 32 Chapter 32 After Yulissa woke up, she felt something was amiss. Everyone was looking at her strangely. Her face instantly turned pale, and she was in a panic. Thus, she did not know what to say. ¡°Look, she has woken up. If there¡¯s nothing else, I''ll leave now.¡± Then, Cassandra added, ¡°Hugo, start the car.¡± They left a trail of car exhaust. It made Leonardo want to kill Cassandra right now. ras ¡°What''s wrong with the brat? She has suddenly be so hostile to us and not as obedient as before. This is out of control,¡¯ he thought.

But, | didn¡¯t expect that. ¡®| can¡¯t believe she¡¯s so merciless. Why has the submissive girl changed? It¡¯s fine. As long as I¡¯m still here, | am the daughter of the Yates family. Cassandra can¡¯t do anything to change it,¡¯ Yulissa thought. Meanwhile, Leonardo thought, ¡®I see. Yulissa is still being thoughtful. After that, he said, ¡°Be good, Lisa. It¡¯s my fault for using you wrongly.

Cassandra asked Hugo to take her directly to Whitecrane Hall. Her experiment had not beenpleted, and it finally reached thest step.This material belongs to N?velDrama.Org. She was confident she couldplete it that day. At that time, it would be possible to cure people with broken limbs without doing any surgery. Regardless of the duration of the disease, it could be eliminated immediately and healed in an instant. She made the medicine for only one reason-to give Raymond hope but make him feel despair. In her previous life, Jeremiah¡¯s hands were broken by him, and no one treated. Jeremiah. Hugo¡¯s medical skills could not save him, so in the end, Jeremiah found it hard even to hold a fork. 115 Chapter 32 In this life, Cassandra wanted Raymond to have a taste of that same feeling of despair. She wanted him to feel hopeless. ¡°You don¡¯t have to call me for dinner.¡± After saying that, Cassandra went straight to theboratory and did note out until 12 midnight. There was a smile on her face. Jeremiah understood her and knew that it was finallypleted. Thus, he asked casually, ¡°Is it sessful?¡± ¡°What do you think?¡± Cassandra asked instead of answering him. She wouldn''t havee out if it didn¡¯t seed. ¡°Congrattions, Jeremiah said. Cassandra tilted her head and felt that there was nothing to congratte her on. ¡°Go to the dark web and post a message, saying that | have medicine to cure broken. limbs. No matter how long or serious it has been, my medicine can cure it,¡± Cassandra ordered. Once the news came out, the Yates family would definitelye to see her. However, she would not let the Yates family use her medicine. Jeremiah did not understand why she did it. After all, she hated trouble the most. ¡°What are you up to?¡± he asked. Cassandra answered, ¡°Nothing. Just help me post it.¡± ¡°Okay.¡± Jeremiah did as she said. As soon as the news came out on the dark web, it caused an uproar. Faye had developed a new medicine that could cure broken limbs. Thus, some people who had lost hope seemed to have seen a glimmer of hope. They began to ce orders for the medicine. The message read: [Anyone who requests the medicine must provide their authentic name and details about their injury. Dr. Quirke will personally evaluate and verify each individual before dispensing the medicine. Your patience is greatly appreciated.] 2/5 11:3 5 Sat, 17 Feb Chapter 32 After the message was sent, Cassandra went home to sleep. However, the Yates family was unable to sleep. Jasper was too excited to sleep when he saw the message on the dark web. After all, ave was someone he admired most and also his idol. He did not expect his idol to develop this kind of medicine. ¡®Ray can be saved!¡¯ he eximed inwardly. These days, Raymond was sulky in the hospital. They had not even visited him in the hospital for a long time because of Leonardo and Yulissa. However, it did not mean they forgot him. Jasper hurriedly told Benjamin and Miranda the good news. ¡°Dad, Mom, Ray¡¯s hand can be saved!¡± Miranda¡¯s eyes lit up. ¡°Really?¡± ¡°It''s true. The news came from the dark web, saying that Dr. Quirke has developed a kind of medicine that can cure it even without doing any surgery.¡± Jasper was so excited. He really wanted to see what kind of medicine that was. Moreover, he wanted to study it as well. ¡®Dr. Quirke is so amazing!¡¯ he eximed inwardly. ¡°Will it really work? Is it a lie?¡± When Benjamin heard that it was from an outsider, he did not believe it. Although he had heard of Faye, he had not seen the person. Thus, he did not know if Faye was genuinely as good as rumored. He did not believe Faye. ¡°It will definitely work. Dr. Quirke never lies.¡± Jasper showed them the message on the dark web. ¡°Look, there are already people cing orders.¡± He firmly believed that Faye was not lying. ¡°How about we hold off for a bit? Let''s observe the oues once these people have tried the medicine,¡± Miranda suggested, exercising caution. She understood the importance of not rushing to make a purchase. After all, she was uncertain how to 3/5 Chapter 32 proceed if the medicine proved ineffective. Faye¡¯s medicine was expensive and difficult to obtain. Moreover, Benjamin did not want. to spend a few million dors on a fake one. If that happened, he would be furious.. Jasper understood Benjamin and Miranda¡¯s painstaking effort and worry. However, it was not suitable for them to dy Raymond''s hands again. If they did not let him see any hope, he would be in despair. Faye¡¯s medicine was very difficult to obtain even if they were willing to pay hundreds of millions of dors. ¡®Well, let''s see what Dad and Mom will think of it, he mused to himself. He could not afford hundreds of millions of dors, and even if Leonardo had this much money, it was most likely that Benjamin and Miranda would not agree. Following their agreement, it was thest day of acupuncture for Kayden. However, this time, it was not thatplicated. Thus, Cassandra asked Hugo to go there to do it. Seeing that only Hugo was there, Keh felt slightly upset. He thought, ¡®Why isn¡¯t Dr. Quirke here today? ¡°Where is your Boss?¡± ¡°Mr. Zelinski, Boss is too busy today. So, I¡¯m sent here instead. We have already eliminated 90 percent of Mr. Yates¡¯ poison. Today, we just need to use acupuncture to consolidate his health. There is no need for Dr. Quirke toe,¡± Hugo said. In fact, since the second acupuncture session, Cassandra did not have toe anymore. Nheless, Cassandra still went there because of the telegraph nt. ¡°Okay.¡± Keh nodded. Yannick could obviously feel that the pressure around Keh became lower, and cold air seemed to be emitted around the latter. After finishing the acupuncture, Hugo said to Keh and Kayden, ¡°The condition of Mr. Yates¡¯ legs isplicated. My boss will bring medicine to treat your legs this Saturday, Mr. Yates. The process may be painful. | hope you can be me ntally prepared for it, Mr. Yates.¡± It was equivalent to having the bones in Kayden¡¯s legs to be regrown and the meridians. 62% Chapter 32 to be regenerated. The pain might be even worse than a pregnant woman giving birth naturally. In particr, the bones of his calves were almostpletely shattered, and his meridians were broken. If he wanted to stand up, he would have to suffer unbearable pain that ordinary people did not have to endure. Kayden hesitated, ¡°The medicine announced in the dark web yesterday...¡± ¡°Isn''t it said to be able to cure any broken limbs?¡¯ Kayden mused to himself. ¡°That kind of medicine can only solve 90 percent of the situation, but your condition belongs to the remaining 10 percent, Mr. Yates.¡± Hugo did not lie. After all, Cassandra said that if they were to ask about it, he could tell them directly. It was because they paid a lot. To neutralize a poison of that level would only need a few million dors. However, unexpectedly, the Zelinski family paid 2 billion dors for it. If she did not tell them the truth, she would feel uneasy to take the money. Kayden was not bothered about how much it would hurt. He only knew that he was. going to be saved and could stand up. No matter how painful it would be, he would be able to bear with it. After all, nothing hurt more than not being able to stand up. ¡°Please thank Dr. Quirke for me. | appreciate it.¡± ¡°You''re wee, Mr. Yates.¡± SEND GIFT Chapter 33 Chapter 33 862% In the next few days, Yulissa did note to school, and Cassandra was happy to be left alone. It was rare for her to have a few peaceful days. During the weekend, Cassandra disguised herself as Faye again and was brought to Pinchart Mansion by Keh. ¡°Dr. Quirke, when will you start treating my legs?¡± Kayden asked. Now Kayden acted warm and friendly toward Faye. Of course, Cassandra was not used to it. However, Kayden did not care. After all, in his eyes, Faye was the one who saved his life and could heal his legs. Cassandra asked calmly, ¡°Are you ready?¡± ¡°Yes, | am.¡± Kayden could not wait for his legs to be cured and for him to be able to stand up. He was a soldier and would rather die standing than spend his life only being able to sit. ¡°Then, take off your pants.¡± Kayden was rendered speechless. Meanwhile, a vein on Keh¡¯s forehead throbbed twice. ¡®Are we being so straightforward now?¡¯ he wondered. ¡°To a doctor, there should be no distinction between genders. Why are you behaving so ufortably?¡± Cassandra said, her voiceced with anger. Her appearance was gender-neutral, and she only disguised her voice slightly. Thus, it still sounded like that of a girl. This guy confidently said that he was ready. But look at him now. He acts all shy,¡¯ she mused to herself. ¡°Hugo, help him apply the/medicine,¡± Cassandra said. She did not want to do it anymore. Thus, Hugo helped. 1/6 Chapter 33 ¡°Yes, Boss, Hugo said. ¡°Apply it evenly, from the thighs to the ankles.¡± Cassandra had already ground the herbs that she had prepared in advance into a paste. Moreover, she even mixed ck emerald ointment into it. In order to repair the meridians, she extracted all the precious medicinal herbs. Then, Cassandra sat aside without looking at Kayden and let Hugo do the work. At that time, Keh¡¯s darkened face finally changed. He looked slightly refreshed.Content rights by N?velDr//ama.Org. ¡°Arghh...¡± Another sound was heard. ¡°Arghhh...¡± Then, they heard, ¡°It hurts so much. Arghh...¡± ¡°Tie his hands and feet.

It will be safer to tie him up, Cassandra mused to herself. 4 Then, Keh motioned Yannick to get some people toe over. Within a minute, several burly men over six-foot-tall came in. They directly restrained. Kayden¡¯s hands and feet. ¡°Get out. Get out of here! Don¡¯t hold me...¡± Kayden was in too much pain, even though he had prepared for it. However, he did not expect it to hurt so much. It was more painful than being shot five times in a row. It felt as if tens of thousands of ants were eating his body. ¡°It hurts too much. Give me anesthetic!¡± He could not stand it anymore. Thus, he begged for them to let him faint.. ¡°No. You have to stay conscious. Otherwise, it won¡¯t work!¡± The words scared Kayden. He wanted to be able to stand up, but it hurt so much. Morcover, he had to be/conscious. 2/6 11:3 5 Sat, 17 Feb ON Chapter 33 He wondered what kind of human suffering he had to endure. ¡°How long do | have to endure it, Dr. Quirke?¡± ¡°For at least two hours. The excruciating pain will ur in stages. The initial stagests approximately an hour and focuses on the regeneration of the meridians and bones. As a result, you will experience intense agony. In the second stage, the pain will diminish by half, indicating the mending process. In the final stage, a bearable ache will persist, albeit with a dull sensation.¡± Then, she added, ¡°But it varies from person to person. Some need two hours, others. need four hours.¡± It would depend on his luck. Kayden was in despair. The pain wouldst for an hour. If he was unlucky, it might be more than two hours. It would kill him. ¡°I-Is there painkiller, Dr. Quirke?¡± Kayden asked. He thought he could eat painkillers if he couldn¡¯t use an anesthetic. Faye immediately said, ¡°You can¡¯t take painkillers, as they will affect the efficacy of the medicine for your legs. The consequences will be unthinkable.¡± Kayden felt that Faye did it on purpose. ¡®It hurts! | wonder if I¡¯m gonna make it. It hurts so much!¡¯ he eximed inwardly. As time went by, Kayden¡¯s voice was h oar se from all the screaming. Nevertheless, no one paid attention to him. It was not until an hour and a halfter that the pain finally reduced. Keh and Cassandra finally felt the world was quiet. ¡°Have | finally entered the second stage, Dr. Quirke?¡± It still hurt, but Kayden could endure it. ¡°Yes.¡± Cassandra noticed the changes in the herbs on his legs.

For the past few days, he remained in the hospital, alone. Benjamin, Miranda, and hist other siblings stayed back home with Yulissa, except for the first day when they came to see him. It was not that he was petty, but he wondered if they did not think that he, who was at patient, was as important as a healthy person. Raymond thought Jasper would not havee to see him every day if it weren¡¯t for Jasper working here. ¡°Don''t be ridiculous, Jace. | have epted my fate.

As long as Faye made the move, it would be a good result. After all, that patient''s legs were healed. Thus, people believed the new medicine developed by Faye indeed worked. Thus, everyone started to buy Faye¡¯s pills. There were only 100 of them, and they were all sold out as soon as they hit the market. When Jasper wanted to buy it, none was left. He wanted to buy it at a higher price from other people, but no one wanted to sell it to him. After all, Faye¡¯s medicine was hard to get even if one were to pay billions of dors for it.

Isn''t there a way for us to acquire it?¡± Being Raymond''s father, Benjamin couldn''t abandon him.

It was at feeling of peacefulness that she had never experienced before. Hugo suddenly appeared. ¡°The Yates family has ced an order on the dark web, Ms. Yates.¡± That was what Jeremiah saw on the dark web. After all, he was the one who managed. everything on the dark web. ¡°Reject it directly,¡± Cassandra said. She pondered, ¡°They expect me to heal Raymond¡¯s hand?

Benjamin was speechless for a moment. ¡®Since Mr. Zelinski respects him, | have not right to do that,¡¯ he thought. ¡°| was too blunt, Benjamin said. ¡°Then, what else can we do now?¡± Leonardo asked in a low voice. As long as Faye was in Drieso, they would be able to find him. ¡°Jace, Leo, Dad, you must find Dr. Quirke for Ray. His hands are important to him,¡± Yulissa said, eyes brimming with tears.

However, Scarlett still said in a calm tone, ¡°Whitecrane Hall is indeed open for business, but Whitecrane Hall doesn¡¯t deal with people who have been cklisted, so please go back.¡± ¡°What do you mean? cklisted?¡± Leonardo asked in a deep voice. ¡°When did we ever get cklisted by Whitecrane Hall?¡¯ he wondered. Meanwhile, Jasper was terrified. ¡®cklisted? | heard that businesses and individuals that have been cklisted by Whitecrane Hall won''t be able to get Dr. Quirke¡¯s treatment. Why? Who offended Dr. Quirke?¡¯ he mused to himself. ¡°Yes, it¡¯s true. The Yates family has been cklisted for a long time. So please go back,¡± Scarlett said. ¡°| wanna see Hugo. Tell him toe out and meet me. What do you mean by saying. we''re cklisted? If you don¡¯t exin it, | ain¡¯t going anywhere!¡± Benjamin''s showing off his arrogance once again. Everyone who worked with Yates Group was treating the Yates family with respect. On the contrary whitecrane Hall had gone too far. The job of a receptionist like Scarlett was to meet customers¡¯ needs. She thought, ¡®Since people who have been cklisted want to see Mr. Gardner, | should let them.¡± Thus, she made a call from the officendline. ¡°Mr. Gardner, the Yates family wants to see you... Hearing Hugo''s reply, she said, ¡°Okay.¡± the Scarlett hung up phone and said to the Yates family, ¡°Please wait in the temporary lounge over there. Mr. Gardner will be here soon.¡± If it were not for Raymond, they would not have to put up with all of this. Hugo didn¡¯t appear until 20 minutester. 11: 36 Sat, 17 Feb OM Chapter 34 Then, he sat opposite them and said, ¡°Sorry to keep you waiting.¡± ¡°Mr. Gardner, what does this mean? When did our family offend you? Why did you put us on the cklist?¡± Benjamin asked. Later on, Benjamin pondered, ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter if we¡¯re cklisted. But the real issue is, what do we do about Ray¡¯s hand? We need Dr. Quirke to save him. If we¡¯re on Whitecrane Hall¡¯s cklist, he won¡¯t stand a chance. ¡°Did you forget what happened here more than a week ago, Mr. Benjamin Yates?¡± Hugo asked. Benjamin was shocked and felt slightly guilty. Indeed, that was their fault, but they were so worried at that time that they were unable to think rationally. They did not do it on purpose. ¡°If it weren''t for that my daughter and you stuck together, we wouldn¡¯t havee to you. Wasn''t this your fault?¡± Miranda would never think of it as her fault. Instead, she thought it was Hugo¡¯s problem. Thus, she did not think that they should be cklisted. Hugo was rendered speechless.Content rights by N?velDr//ama.Org. 4 It was the first time he had seen someone shifting the me shamelessly. ¡®Boss¡¯ parents are a bunch of freaks! | don¡¯t know who Boss inherited her temperament from, he thought. SEND GIFT Chapter 35 Chapter 35 ¡°Shut up! You have no right to say anything here!¡± Benjamin scolded Miranda. ¡®Does she want to save Raymond or not?¡¯ he thought. Miranda was stubborn. Thus, she was so angry that she did not say anything. She thought, ¡°That brat is so ungrateful. She has this connection but she didn¡¯t think of helping Ray and allowing Dr. Quirke to treat him as soon as possible. ¡°It seems that Mrs. Yates has a huge problem with me. Then, there¡¯s nothing to talk about.¡± Hugo was indifferent as he continued, ¡°Previously, for Ms. Cassandra Yates¡¯ sake, we haven''t announced to the public that you have been cklisted. Since you''re not bothered by it, then we should let everyone know.¡± ¡®After all, you don¡¯t want to be respected. You have hurt Boss so much. In the end, you still want Boss to heal you. What wishful thinking. Even others can notice that you''re nning something,¡¯ he mused to himself. ¡°Mr. Gardner, it''s a trivial matter. Is this necessary?¡± Leonardo''s gaze was cold. ¡°Mr. Yates, what''s a trivial matter? When you came to use me of being a bad example, was it a trivial matter? I¡¯m a man who is of your father¡¯s age. Do you hear what you''re saying?¡± Then, he added, ¡°The Yates family is so arrogant. Your position has merely been slightly raised this year but you''re already looking down at others. | can¡¯t even find words to describe you.¡± Hugo simply did not like the Yates family. If it was not because Cassandra knew that they were her biological parents at the beginning of the year and secretly helped them, they would not have gotten where they had been now. Just two months after Cassandra returned to the Yates residence, she became extremely disappointed with these people. He wondered what kind of people they were. After all, she hid everything about herself and secretly helped the Yates family. Nevertheless, she received nothing in return in the end. ¡°Do you think that the Yates family¡¯s current status is earned by your own effort? You''re all ingrates. How dare you shout loudly in front of me?¡± Then, he added, ¡°Scarlett!¡± 1/6 11:3 6 Sat, 17 Feb Chapter 35 Hugo called Scarlett. ¡°Mr. Gardner.¡±Content rights by N?velDr//ama.Org. 24. 62% ¡°Announce to the public that the Yates family is cklisted by Whitecrane Hall.¡± He wanted to see who would cooperate with the Yates family in the future. Then, he added, ¡°Don¡¯t forget to see them off.¡± Moreover, he instructed Scarlett to tell the security guards to kick anyone from the Yates family out if she were to see them again. ¡°Mr. Gardner, it''s all a misunderstanding. Please don¡¯t do this. We can discuss it and find a solution together. Benjamin became slightly timid. Indeed, Hugo was right. The Yates family only started to have good luck from the beginning of that year. Yates Group had a market value of 10 billion dors and it has tens of billions of dors now. Thus, they had enough confidence and could afford to be arrogant. However, he wondered what Hugo was talking about. He did not know much about Whitecrane Hall and how influential it was. ¡°Hugo, we spoke without thinking. Please don¡¯t hold it against us. We''re here today to seek medical treatment from Dr. Quirke for Ray.¡± Jasper hastened to amend the situation. He was so frustrated now because he did not think ofing alone. Instead, he brought so many people with him. They were talking carelessly. If they were to offend Whitecrane Hall, no one would treat the Yates family with respect. ¡°Hugo, | apologize for the recklessness of my family. Please help us make ant appointment with Dr. Quirke. Ray really needs medical treatment from him. We can pay as much as he wants.¡± Yulissa also stood up and spoke. Meanwhile, Miranda looked at her with distress. ¡°My daughter is so sensible, she mused to herself. ¡°I-If you want to get revenge for Cassandra, juste after me. Don¡¯t put my family in a difficult situation. | know Cassandra doesn''t like me, but Ray is also her brother. She can¡¯t be so cruel.¡± What Yulissa meant was the reason why Faye did not help was because of Cassandra. She was sowing discord and Faye was on her side, which was why Faye refused to treat Raymond. There was also a possibility that Hugo did not tell Faye about the matter. ¡°If you didn¡¯t mention Cassandra, | would actually think that you¡¯re begging me here 2/6 Chapter 35 for the sake of your brother, Ms. Yates. But this is what you¡¯re up to.¡± Then, he added, ¡°Ms. Cassandra Yates has never seen Dr. Quirke from the start. She also didn¡¯t say anything to me. But you said a lot to me.¡± After that, he continued, ¡°Mr. Raymond Yates¡¯ hands must be broken. But didn¡¯t we sell Dr. Quirke¡¯s medicine two days ago? What''s the matter? Didn¡¯t you buy any? You couldn¡¯t even get a pill, yet you¡¯re still pretending that you have strong sibling bonds.¡± He thought, ¡®Oh! This is so frustrating. Even at this time, she¡¯s still ndering Boss. After all, if one could not even get a pill out of the 100 pills that were being sold, it would mean that the person was not destined to have it. Moreover, Faye gave them a lot of chances this time. They were unable to seize the opportunity, so there was nothing he could do. As a matter of fact, Jasper rushed to ce an order as soon as the time came. Somehow, it sold out after he clicked on the website. Yulissa¡¯s face turned pale. She thought, ¡®Da mn you, old man! How dare you say this to me! Aren¡¯t you afraid that my brothers will kill you?¡¯ 4 Jasper smiled awkwardly and said, ¡°Dr. Quirke¡¯s medicine is so popr that we can¡¯t. even get any. ¡°Then, why were the 100 people previously able to get it? In the end, it¡¯s just that you didn¡¯t work hard enough.¡± After that, Hugo added, ¡°Scarlett, send them off!¡± Hugo left without looking back. Leonardo''s face darkened. He had worked hard to earn everything that the Yates family had and Hugo had no right to say anything about it. ¡°Dad, let''s go. We''ll just find another way for Raymond''s hands.¡± He did not believe that no one else could cure Raymond except Faye.

After all, it was weird that she was always in troubletely. Her proudest achievement was her grades. She wanted Cassandra to see the differences between them. Now that Cassandra had left the Yates residence, she should nevere back again. Then, Yulissa walked up to Cassandra, raised her chin slightly, and said softly, ¡°Cassandra, the exam ising soon. If there¡¯s anything you don¡¯t know, you can tell me. | will teach you everything.¡± ¡°Teach me? You''re not even qualified.¡± Cassandra¡¯s words instantly causedmotion among their ssmates. ¡®Why is she so ungrateful?¡¯ they wondered. ¡°How can you say that, Cassandra? I- One chimed in, ¡°Cassandra, you are an ingrate. Lisa¡¯s result is ranked among the top five in the entire grade and is much better than you who are rankedst. She is being merciful and wants to teach you, but you still refuse her offer. You''re really ungrateful!¡± They thought she did not appreciate kindness. ¡°What''s the matter? Should | be grateful and ept her mercy? If there¡¯s nothing, don¡¯t appear in front of me.¡± Someone else said, ¡°Cassandra, someone is willing to teach you. You should be grateful instead of showing your stupidity here!¡± A male student who was called Lawrence stood up for Yulissa and spoke. ¡°How do you know that her grades must be better than mine?¡± ¡°Teach me? Even the teachers are not qualified,¡¯ Cassandra mused to herself. ¡°Cassandra, do you dare to bet with Lisa? If your exam result is worse than hers, you will apologize to her!¡± Lawrence continued to stand up for Yulissa. Deep inside, Yulissa felt it was ironic and slightly surprised. After all, she liked that he spoke exactly what was in her mind. Indeed, she wanted to step on Cassandra and let everyone know what kind of person. Cassandra was. 4/6 62% Chapter 35 It was exactly what she wanted. ¡°Lawrence, don¡¯t put Cassandra in such a difficult situation. | know she doesn¡¯t like me. | just want her to improve before the SAT, and | don¡¯t want to have any conflict with her. So don¡¯t say that.¡± Yulissa spoke hypocritically, which caused Cassandra''s face to darken. ¡®She¡¯s still so good at stirring up trouble, she thought. ¡°Okay. How do you want topete? What''s the bet?¡± The only thing that Cassandra was not afraid of was betting. It was because she had never lost. ¡°Oh, don''t be like this, Cassandra. Lawrence was just joking. How could | bet with you?¡± Nevertheless, she thought, ¡®Quickly agree to it! I''ll just refute it twice. Cassandra, I¡¯m going to make you infamous!¡± ¡°What''s the matter? Are you afraid I''ll bully you?¡± ¡°Cassandra, don¡¯t be ridiculous. It¡¯s easy to see who is the one being bullied here. Yulissa is acknowledged as the top student in the entire school. What about you? The entire school thinks of you as an academic underachiever. Do you still want topete with her? It¡¯s funny.¡± Lawrence spoke with disdain. Although many people said before that they bullied Cassandra because Yulissa was pressing for it, Lawrence knew that he merely wanted to stand up for Yulissa. ¡®Cassandra is trying to overshadow Lisa and steal the love and affection of their family. She deserves to die!¡¯ he eximed inwardly. ¡°Let''s y it by ear. We''ll see.¡± Then, Cassandra turned to him and said, ¡°But | want to make a new bet.¡± ¡°Okay!¡± Lawrence turned around and asked Yulissa, ¡°Yulissa, what bet do you think is the best?¡± ¡°Lawrence, | really can¡¯t-¡± ¡°Since Cassandra has epted the challenge, what are you afraid of, Yulissa?

Am | right?¡¯ ¡°Cassandra, look at Yulissa¡¯s character. Even to this time, she still wants you to go home. You''re really ungrateful.¡± Lawrence was like a clown who emphasized every word Yulissa said. It was not meant to hurt his self-esteem, but Yulissa did not like someone like him at all. In fact, she merely treated him as a backup and a simp. ¡°If | win, go back and tell the Yates family to stay away from me. You, meanwhile, will run tenps on the yground at the back and shout ¡®Yulissa is an idiot¡¯ while running Then, she added, ¡°How about it? If you agree, our bet will officially start, and everyone will be the witness to it.¡± Yulissa¡¯s expression darkened and she looked aggrieved. Her eyes gradually reddened. ¡°Cassandra, don¡¯t you go too far!¡± ¡°What is this condition?¡± she wondered. Nevertheless, Yulissa thought it carefully. She thought it was something that she could agree to. After all, judging from Cassandra¡¯s result, she would not be able to even earn one-fifth of Yulissa¡¯s marks. Nevertheless, the former still wanted to compete against her. Thus, she immediately felt confident. ¡°You have to score higher than me in the exam, Cassandra. The bet will only be valid if you¡¯re 60 points higher than my result.¡± She was ranked in the top five of the entire grade and Cassandra needed to obtain 60 points higher than her. Thus, she thought it was impossible for an idiot like Cassandra to be able to do it. a Chapter 36 Chapter 36 Returning home, Yulissa went up to Benjamin and Miranda, eager to earn some praise. ¡°Dad, Mom, I''ve figured out a way to get Cassandra to drop thewsuit!¡± Yulissa beamed. sweetly, instantly lifting Benjamin''s tired spirits from the day. ¡°What''s your n?¡± Benjamin asked. He tousled Yulissa¡¯s hair as she responded with a charming smile. ¡®My daughter is quite clever, Benjamin thought. ¡°We''ve got another mock exam on Thursday and Friday. Cassandra¡¯s willing to bet with. me that if | can outscore her, she''ll agree to drop thewsuit ande back home!¡± Benjamin snorted dismissively. He hadn¡¯t expected Cassandra to be so bold, challenging Yulissa in this way. He mused, ¡®Lisa''s grades practically guarantee her a spot at Juset University, while Cassandra consistently brings up the rear in ss rankings. This time, Lisa¡¯s bound to win. ¡°You''re so sensible, Lisa. If you manage to get Cassandra to drop thewsuit, I''ll get you whatever you want,¡± Benjamin pledged, not even considering the possibility of Yulissa. failing. To their surprise, Raymond returned home while they were engrossed in their father- daughter bonding session in the living room, with Jasper trailing close behind. ¡°Dad, what did Dr. Quirke say?¡± Raymond asked. Raymond couldn''t ept it. The fact that the miracle doctor refused to treat him was. unbearable. The hope seemed within reach, only to be unattainable. They were informed that Faye¡¯s medicine worked, but they couldn''t get their hands on it. Raymond heard stories of people using the medicine and recovering from years of paralysis. Even the patient from the Zelinski family of Drieso could walk now. He pondered, ¡°Why? Why must be a cri pple, unable to use my hand properly? It¡¯s right hand we''re discussing! If it bes cri ppled, what am | going to do!¡¯ Benjamin¡¯s expression soured as he faced Raymond''s inquiry. my ¡®He caused us all this humiliation, and now he¡¯s here questioning us?¡¯ Benjamin fumed internally. 1/6 11: 36 Sat, 17 Feb M Chapter 36 ¡°Raymond, why are you home?¡± Yulissa approached, holding Raymond''s hand, and asked sweetly. She reassured him, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, Raymond. We''re working on a solution. We''ll definitely get Dr. Quirke to cure you.¡± ¡°Are you sure that Dr. Quirke will treat me?¡± Raymond bristled like a hedgehog, prepared to pr ick anyone who came too close. ¡°Cassandra should have a way...¡± she said. ¡®Honestly, I¡¯m clueless about this. It''s unrealistic to make Dad spend hundreds of millions of dors to get Dr. Quirke to treat Raymond. The Yates Family may be sessful and rich now, but knowing Dad¡¯s frugal nature, big expenses are highly unlikely.¡¯ Yulissa contemted. In other words, half of the Yates family¡¯s assets were hers, and Yulissa couldn¡¯t bear to lose it. Despite losing a partner in teaching Cassandra a lesson, the remaining five brothers weren¡¯t so bad. ¡®Leonardo even brought up the idea of kidnapping and leaving Cassandra on Desert Ind. That ce is so dangerous, but | bet she''d enjoy it!¡¯ Yulissa chuckled to herself. ¡°Cassandra?¡± Raymond frowned. ¡°Yeah, she knows Mr. Gardner of Whitecrane Hall, and she should have met Dr. Quirke too. Dr. Quirke¡¯s hesitance to treat you might be because... ¡°She did this on purpose?¡± Raymond instinctively thought so. Finding this exnation quite convincing, Raymond turned to look at Jasper, inquiring. ¡°Jace, is what Lisa said true?¡± Jasper was momentarily at a loss for words. ¡®It¡¯s true that Cassandra knows Hugo, but Dr. Quirke? How could Lisa lie about that? Not everyone has the privilege of getting to know Dr. Quirke,¡¯ he pondered. ¡°Cassandra docs know Hugo, but...¡± ¡°That must be it! That brat is determined to get her revenge on me!¡± Raymond quickly jumped to a conclusion. ¡®Cassandra, | won''t let you off easily!¡¯ he thought. The following day at school, as Cassandra approached the entrance, someone unexpectedly blocked her way-it was Raymond.. ¡®It''s no small feat for him to be out of the hospital!¡¯ she thought, and said, ¡°Even a dog. knows not to block one¡¯s way. Please move aside.¡± 2/6 Chapter 36 ¡®Geez, I¡¯m speechless at his audacity. He¡¯s blocking me no matter where | step! Has he lost his mind?¡¯ Cassandra raged to herself. ¡°Cassandra, can¡¯t you speak properly? Is this how you talk to your brother?¡± Raymond. was infuriated, thinking, ¡®She implied that I''m worse than a dog! How dare she! Is she tired of living?¡± Cassandra responded as if she¡¯d just heard a joke. ¡°For someone like me with unknown. parentage, how could | have a brother?¡± ¡°You- I''m not here to argue. | heard that you know Dr. Quirke?¡± Raymond inquired. Cassandra arched her eyebrows and mused, ¡®He¡¯s here for me? Looks like he¡¯s finally found his way over.¡± ¡°So what if | do or don¡¯t know Dr. Quirke?¡± ¡°H ook me up with him. He¡¯s the only doctor who can fix my hand. Move quickly and set up a meeting for us.¡± Raymond handed over the task to Cassandra without a second thought, as if this was her duty to fulfill. ¡°What? Is he out of his mind?¡¯ Cassandra thought. ¡°Mr. Yates, when did | ever im to know Dr. Quirke? If you¡¯re unwell, go to a hospital. instead of showcasing your non-existent intellect here,¡± she jeered. ¡°Don''t y games! If you know Hugo from Whitecrane Hall, then you must know Dr. Quirke.¡± Verily, Raymond''s peculiar logic left Cassandra dumbfounded. ¡®Aren''t the Yates family supposed to be smart? Why do they all seem like fools now? In my past life, | must have been blind to meet my end at their hands!¡± she mused. ¡°By your reasoning, anyone acquainted with Hugo should also know Dr. Quirke. So, go ask Jasper. Ask if he knows Hugo, then check if he knows Dr. Quirke. If you can¡¯t afford a visit to the neurosurgery department for an appointment, just say the word. | could begrudgingly set it up for you, sparing the Yates family the embarrassment of releasing you into the wild!¡± ¡°Now, even if | do know Dr. Quirke, what''s the fuss? What makes you think you and the Yates family deserve Dr. Quirke¡¯s help? The Zelinski family paid a cool 2 billion dors for Dr. Quirke¡¯s services. How much is the Yates family willing to shell out?¡± she questioned. ¡®If you don¡¯t have the ability, don¡¯t harbor any wishful thinking of acquiring things or people beyond your means,¡¯ she mused. 1/6 Chapter 36 Raymond was taken aback by Cassandra¡¯s words. He thought, ¡®2 billion dors for treatment from Dr. Quirke? Can | even afford that? | don¡¯t think so. The assets | have on hand are only 200 million dors. ¡°If the Yates family cane up with 4 billion dors, maybe Dr. Quirke will consider saving you for my sake.¡± Cassandra was confident that Benjamin wouldn''t spend such an amount of money on this. Benjamin had struggled financially when he was young, and even if he now had money, he couldn¡¯t change his inherent sense of inferiority. He believed that only money could provide true security. Therefore, asking him to shell out 4 billion dors to cure Raymond¡¯s hand would mean giving away one-fifth of his family assets to the miracle doctor. He wouldn''t do it. Instead, he would likely persuade Raymond to give up. However, Raymond''s two life aspirations hinged on his hands. If his hand became crip pled, it meant his dreams were shattered. This was undoubtedly a devastating blow to him. *4 billion dors? Why doesn¡¯t he just rob a bank?¡± Raymond eximed. ¡®It''s such an astronomical sum! Has Dr. Quirke gone crazy for money?¡¯ he thought. ¡°Why not ask Jasper to browse the Dark Web and find out if it¡¯s pricey to hire Dr. Quirke with 4 billion dors?¡± Despite the Yates family¡¯s heightened market value and social status, their narrow- minded perspectives remained unchanged. ¡°You... Raymond had never interacted with Faye, and he even considered such an individual likely to be all show and no substance. However, Jasper held great admiration for the miracle doctor. It seemed that Faye possessed genuine skills and practical knowledge. s, Raymond didn¡¯t have 4 billion dors! That would have to be provided by Chapter 36 Benjamin! Ignoring Raymond, Cassandra headed straight to the ssroom. There, she found Yulissa exining a problem to her ssmates. With her kind appearance, she does seem likable. If someone didn¡¯t know what kind of person she was, they might be deceived by her appearance, she thought. ¡°You''re here, Cassandra. I¡¯m exining some questions to our ssmates. Would you like to join us?¡± Yulissa offered. ¡°No thanks.¡± Cassandra¡¯s indifference left Yulissa feeling disappointed. Her eyes instantly reddened, garnering sympathy from her ssmates. ¡°Cassandra, can¡¯t you appreciate kindness? Even if you don¡¯t want to join us, can¡¯t you at least say thank you!¡±This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org. Cassandra found herself at a loss for words. ¡°What, are you trying the same tactics on me again? I¡¯m just ignoring her. Did | do something wrong? Is it serious enough to make all of you so outraged? Or do you still want to bully me or beat me up? Haven''t you learned your lesson after going to court?¡± she retorted. Some ssmates who were about to defend Yulissa quickly hushed up. With their not-so-great history at school and in court, anything Cassandra said would be taken seriously by the principal. After all, the principal had personally apologized for the previous incident and even tweaked the school rules. With less than a month until the SAT, their families had also warned them multiple times not to mess with Cassandra. They emphasized that those who could enlist Jonathan as a private attorney were no ordinary folks. If she didn¡¯t seek assistance from the Yates Family, it implied she relied on her own abilities. However, in their perspective, Cassandra was just deemed ipetent, ignorant, and a bully misusing her influence to torment Yulissa. ¡°Cassandra, how can you say that? Our ssmates are just looking out for you... Forget it. If you don¡¯t want to join us, then we can¡¯t force you either,¡± Yulissa said, her words rendering Cassandra speechless. 5/6 Chapter 36 6/6 f& SEND GIFT COMMENT Chapter 37 Chapter 37 Raymond returned home, feeling defeated and at a loss for what to do next. He pondered over who could aid him in healing his hands. He didn¡¯t want to end up a crip ple, but 4 billion dors was way too much. He wondered whether his parents would be up for shelling out such a hefty amount. Raymond snapped back to reality when he saw Leonardoing down the stairs. Leonardo looked grim as he plopped down in front of Raymond and grabbed a gulp of water. ¡°Leo, didn¡¯t you head to the office today?¡± ¡°Nah, got a headache.¡± Leonardo found himself growing increasingly annoyed as persistent headaches had be a frequentpanion since he started working. It left him in agony. months. However, a positive turn came about in thest two months. Cassandra, upon returning home, sneakily ced an aromatherapy candle into his room. The subtle and pleasant fragrance that lingered in his room had significantly alleviated his headache symptoms, making his nights more peaceful. Initially, Leonardo had sternly scolded Cassandra for her actions. Yet, as he began to reap the benefits of aromatherapy candles, he eventually gave in to her well- intentioned efforts. He even instructed his assistant to fetch more of them from Cassandra. He recalled his assistant mentioning that Cassandra was more than happy to provide a generous amount, enough tost for a month. Both in his office and his own room at home, the air was consistently filled with the familiar scent. For an entire month, Leonardo had blissfully escaped the clutches of headaches. However, just a week after Cassandra left the Yates residence, his aromatherapy candles had run out. Yesterday, he even searched Cassandra¡¯s room in the hopes of finding a new one, but s, he came up empty-handed. It was only then that he noticed Cassandra¡¯s room was surprisingly small, making for a 115 Chapter 37This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org. quick and easy search. A single nce was sufficient to take in the entire space. Without the presence of the aromatherapy candle, he experienced a restless night. Unfortunately, his headache returned the following day. His frustration boiled over, and he silently cursed Cassandra. He was eager to discover the type of aromatherapy candle she used, as he couldn''t find anything simr despite exploring all avable options. Raymond was taken aback. It had been a while since Leonardo had dealt with headaches, and now they were resurfacing. ¡°Leo, it¡¯s been a while since youst mentioned having a headache. Why is it bothering you again? Do you still have the medicine you used previously?¡± At the mention of the topic, Leonardo became visibly agitated. ¡°| haven¡¯t used any medication for more than a month. I¡¯ve been depending on those aromatherapy candles from that brat, Cassandra¡± What surprised Leonardo was that she didn¡¯t leave any of them behind after she left! It seemed that she didn¡¯t care about Leonardo at all! Raymond, upon hearing Cassandra¡¯s name again, found the situation quite absurd. ¡°Leo, | went to see Cassandra today.¡± Yet, Cassandra had changed significantly since theirst encounter, appearing somewhat distant toward Raymond. ¡°Well, what did she say?¡± Leonardo knew that Raymond had gone to inquire about the miracle doctor. However, judging by Raymond''s current demeanor, it seemed he had returned empty- handed. ¡°That brat probably knows the miracle doctor, but she won''t be willing to seek their help unless you''re ready to cough up 4 billion dors.¡± Hearing this, Leonardo stood up abruptly, but an intense headache caused his vision to darken. ¡°Why doesn¡¯t she just hit up a bank? Is she even a Yates? What a traitor!¡± When it came to 4 billion dors, not even pulling off a bank heist could have scored that much cash so fast! 2/5 Chapter 37 Leonardo couldn¡¯t help but feel that Cassandra was quite a brat! ¡°When | inquired upon returning, | found out that the patient from the Zelinski family. spent 2 billion dors to bring the miracle doctor into action. After learning that the miracle doctor could cure the patient¡¯s legs, the Zelinski family wanted to offer more as a reward, but the miracle doctor declined. Instead, the doctor asked the Zelinski family to fetch two herbs, spending hundreds of millions of dors,¡± Raymond shared, emphasizing the need to have sufficient funds if they were to request the miracle doctor''s assistance. Leonardo found himself deep in thought. It was just as Raymond had suggested. The Zelinski family didn¡¯t block the information, making it easy for them to get details. about these matters. However, handling 4 billion dors was indeed a bit challenging. ¡°Let''s talk to Mom and Dad about it when they return in the evening.¡± Considering his avable assets were only 2 billion dors, any investment would be limited to that amount at most. The rest would have to rely on their parents. 4 After all, money can be earned again, but if Raymond''s condition isn¡¯t treated, it will persist for the rest of his life. Leonardo couldn''t bear the idea.. ¡°ine, there¡¯s a charity g in a few days. Would you like to join?

Consequently, he opted not to go to the Yates residence but approached Jeremiah instead. ¡°Lucas?¡± ¡°Yeah, he has contacted me/several times already.

The gown and shoes that Cassandra wore were the ones disliked by Yulissa. Even her makeup was excessively vibrant, resembling that of a clown. During that time, Lucas dropped by to discuss some matters with her. Due to his appearance at the Yates residence, the Yates family reluctantly brought her along. However, that night, Yulissa schemed against Cassandra, tarnishing her reputation. Everyone med Cassandra for pushing Yulissa into the pool, resulting in her choking on water. Unbeknownst to everyone, Yulissa was far from being unable to swim. In fact, she was at proficient swimming expert, seemingly born with the skill. Even the Yates family believed she couldn''t swim. It wasn¡¯t untilter, as Yulissa effortlessly swam in front of Cassandra, that thetter realized she had been deceived. Upon reaching out to Benjamin and Miranda for support, Cassandra soon found herself confined in a dimly lit room. They used her of harassing Yulissa daily and causing trouble, which she found truly ridiculous. This time, Cassandra was eager to see if Yulissa would resort to the same tricks again. ¡°ine, | sense you''ve been in a bad moodtely. What¡¯s going on?¡± Jeremiah, a perceptive man, possessed an understanding of Cassandra that even she couldn¡¯t match. With just a nce, he could discern when Cassandra was not in a good mood. Cassandra raised an eyebrow. ¡°Why on earth would you think I¡¯m in a bad mood?¡± ¡°Because | saw it myself.¡± Jeremiah replied, taking a seat beside her. ¡°Come on, tell me. What''s bothering you?¡± ¡°I''m not in a bad mood, bro. Quit making random guesses.¡± It was unlikely that she was in a bad mood. She simply didn¡¯t feel like smiling. ¡°Just keep acting tough.¡± Chapter 37 On Thursday, the final round of exams unfolded ording to schedule. Yulissa found herself in the first exam venue, while Cassandra upied thest. Before the exams started, Yulissa approached Cassandra once again to make her presence felt, saying, ¡°Cassandra, give your best in this exam. Ill be putting in my maximum effort too. Mom, Dad, and everyone are looking forward to seeing you at home.¡± ¡°That¡¯s your family, not mine. | don¡¯t want any part of them, got it?¡± Cassandra sincerely wished that Yulissa would stop appearing every day. The sight of Yulissa was bing increasingly repulsive. ¡°Don''t say that, Cassandra. They are your family too, and they care about you. Even though | may have taken their love, we''re still a family, aren¡¯t we? After the exam, think about dropping thewsuit. You¡¯ve caused a lot of trouble for Leo.¡± ¡°Do you have selective hearing?¡± Cassandra suspected that Yulissa couldn¡¯t grasp a single word she said. 5/5 Chapter 38 Chapter 38 ¡°Yulissa, enough with the innocent victim act. Since | moved out of the Yates residence, you¡¯ve been using the same lines. You said that if | decide to return, you''ll leave. | agreed to it, so why haven¡¯t you moved out yet? Is it too hard for you, or did you never n to leave in the first ce? Stop talking and start doing. If you truly want me back at the Yates residence, stop talking like a saint while enjoying the luxurious life the Yates family provides. Yet, | admit that ying the sympathy card has its advantages. Appearing vulnerable and innocent helps you to gain protection easier, especially from those fools in the Yates family.¡± Cassandra no longer wasted time engaging in idle chatter with Yulissa. She wasn¡¯t in a rush. There would be ample time for Yulissa to reveal her true colors. The two-day exams finally concluded. After the tests, everyone returned to the ssroom. Some couldn¡¯t resist voicing their thoughts. ¡°Man, someone¡¯s really shooting high and being ungrateful. Trying to bet without the chops? That¡¯s asking for trouble. | just hope she doesn¡¯t crash and burn too hard because that would be super awkward!¡± As long as Yulissa won this bet, forcing Cassandra to withdraw thewsuit, her actions. would be a joke. It also prevented Christine from attending sses at school. She really should be kicked out of school. Cassandra didn¡¯t take it seriously at all. To Cassandra, the less capable people were, the more they boasted. Seeing that Cassandrapletely ignored the remarks, the ssmate who spoke felt his pride wounded. ¡°Did you catch the scoop? Pretty much everyone at thest exam venue was nodding. off, and not a single soul bothered to take a crack at the questions. And get this, someone still thinks she¡¯s on the same level as the rest of us? Seriously?¡± Cassandra couldn''t stand how noisy this person was. If she didn¡¯t give him a little lesson, it felt like she¡¯d be letting herself down. ¡°Hey, why dance around with ¡®someone? Might as well drop my ID number or just say my name.¡± The ssmate was surprised. He didn¡¯t expect the first person to respond to him in 115 Chapter 38 ss to be the very subject he was discussing. ¡°Cassandra,e on. Jayden didn¡¯t mean it. He was just joking with you. Don¡¯t take it seriously.¡± Cassandra was momentarily speechless. ¡°Yulissa, let''s cut the act, okay? No Mr. Yates, no Mrs. Yates, and surely no dim-witted scions from the Yates family around here. You don¡¯t have to put on a show for me. How about going back to being the real you? That way, | might actually buy into a bit of genuineness.¡± Cassandra¡¯s sarcasm nearly knocked Yulissa off her feet. ¡®Damn it. What''s Cassandra on about? What''s gotten into her? She used to be a breeze to handle. I¡¯d say something, and it was gospel. Now she¡¯s got the nerve to talk back and mock me in front of everyone. How dare she!¡¯ Yulissa fumed in her thoughts. With teary eyes, Yulissa asked, ¡°Cassandra, do you really have to speak to me like this?¡± There were actually those who fell for the crocodile¡¯s tears. ¡°Yulissa, no matter how hard you try to pretend, it doesn¡¯t fool me. Save it. I¡¯ve walked away from the Yates residence as you wanted, so let''s just treat each other like strangers. from now on. Don¡¯t even bother me.¡± Thinking about the charity gter in the evening, Cassandra left immediately. However, the idea of going back to change into another outfit seemed bothersome. ¡°Why didn¡¯t he juste directly to me instead of organizing this charity g?¡± Cassandra thought. She headed straight to Whitecrane Hall, where Jeremiah had already prepared a gown. for her. It was a dress she had designed. Cassandra fell silent. ¡°ine, | still think ¡®Angel¡¯s Wing¡¯ suits you best.¡± This unique garment, designed by Cassandra in her ine persona, was one of a kind. in the world. It was disyed in the showcase, and no one seemed capable of wearing it. To this day, the dress had not found its rightful owner. Yet, Jeremiah believed that Cassandra was its rightful owner. 2/5 Chapter 38 When Yulissa got home, Miranda greeted her with enthusiasm. ¡°Darling, how did the exam go?¡± Miranda asked. Despite her confidence in Yulissa, she was just keen to hear all about it. ¡°I''m pretty sure I''ll make it into the top five.¡± ¡°Awesome, that¡¯s my baby girl! Why don¡¯t you go upstairs and change? The stylist is already waiting for you. We''re hitting up a charity g tonight.¡± It was an excellent opportunity to socialize with the upper ss. Lucas was hosting, and they were hopeful they could possibly connect with him. Excited about the idea of attending the g, Yulissa happily went upstairs to change. Tonight, she was determined to impress everyone and show that she was the daughter of the Yates family! Arriving early at the g, Yulissa was dressed in a stunning white princess gown adorned withce and a hint of diamonds. The radiant lights illuminated her, and she exuded a blend of narcissism and confidence, strutting around like a proud peacock. Cassandra had a habit of arriving at venues precisely when they started. She hadn''t arrived when Lucas got there. Lucas scanned the venue, searching for Cassandra, but she was nowhere to be found. He couldn''t believe she wouldn¡¯t show up. ¡°There¡¯s no way she¡¯s noting. Jeremiah promised me she¡¯d be here,¡¯ Lucas thought. Suddenly, a burst of noise came from outside. Aman walked in, arm in arm with hispanion. Cassandra emerged in an understated yet luxurious ck evening gown, its simplicity adding to its charm. The gown, reminiscent of the night sky, echoed her mysterious and enigmatic personality. Perfectly entuating her figure, the evening gown featured a pure white waistband against the all-ck backdrop. Overall, Cassandra emanated the allure of a bottomless ck hole, irresistibly drawing people closer to her dangerous mystique. The gown earned the name ¡°Angel¡¯s Wing¡± not due to its pristine whiteness, but as a subtle glimmer in the darkness. It was a symbol of the ongoing struggle against shadows. The white waistband on the gown, resembling an angel''s wings, served as a beacon of hope for the angels, representing their ultimate lifeline and the moment of rebirth breaking through the cocoon of darkness. Chapter 38 Observing the unfolding scene, Yulissa found herself rendered speechless, uncertain about what to say. ¡®Why is Cassandra here? This isn¡¯t her ce!¡¯ Yulissa thought. Benjamin cast an unpleasant nce at Cassandra, silently cursing his disobedient daughter for daring to embarrass herself at Lucas¡¯ charity g. He wondered if she was determined to tarnish the reputation of the Yates family before she decided to behave herself. Finally, Lucas spotted the person he had eagerly awaited and warmly approached. ¡°Cassie, you''ve finally arrived. I¡¯ve been waiting for you.¡± Lucas¡¯plimentary words surprised everyone, sparking spection about Cassandra¡¯s identity. The fact that Lucas personally greeted her with such enthusiasm raised eyebrows. ¡°| didn¡¯t ask you to wait.¡± Gasp! Cassandra spoke with remarkable audacity, daring to address Lucas in a manner that few would have dared. Cassandra¡¯s words ignited an overwhelming fury in Benjamin, nearly making him lightheaded. He couldn¡¯t help but wonder, ¡®Why can¡¯t shemunicate more appropriately? What if she offends Mr. Hathaway? Will she have an easy time then? But given her background, how does she even know Mr. Hathaway? How could a country bumpkining to the city possibly be acquainted with Mr. Hathaway? What are the odds?¡¯ ¡°| waited willingly, Cassandra, while it seems that you only know how to anger me.¡± Lucas wasn¡¯t angry. Instead, he burst into a heartyughter. Someone with a close rapport with Lucas boldly asked, ¡°Mr. Hathaway, what''s your rtionship with this young woman?¡± ¡°Oh, Cassie and | go way back. Back when she was just a little kid in Roond Vige, | yed a sort of sponsor role for her. | heard recently that she reunited with her biological parents, so | haven''t bothered her since.¡±This material belongs to N?velDrama.Org. Lucas deliberately made thisment for Benjamin to overhear. To make him aware that he had missed out on something. Benjamin was truly blind in mistaking a fake gem for a real one. Chapter 39 apter 39 84.62% ¡°| heard you moved out of the Yates family. What''s going on?¡± asked Lucas. Cassandra was speechless, pondering, ¡®He didn¡¯t know? Is he kidding me right now?¡± Frightened, Benjamin turned pale with fear and was about to interrupt Lucas, dreading that Cassandra would blurt out words that might put them all in shame. Then again, before Cassandra could even part her lips, someone else recognized her. ¡°Oh, | remember! Isn¡¯t she the so-called adopted daughter of the Yates family? | think her name is Cassie or something. The Yates family called her their adopted child, so how did she suddenly end up bing their biological kid?¡± At the banquet the other day, that person who spoke had stepped out early instead of staying to watch the drama till the very end. Therefore, Cassandra had no idea whether she was the biological daughter of the Yates family or not. ¡°Now that you mention it, | do have some recollection of t-a biological daughter that has soon turned into an adopted daughter instead. Standing before us is the very Ms. Cassandra Yates we''re talking about.¡± The crowd clicked their tongues and shook their heads. Word had it that the adopted daughter who came from the countryside was rude and crude. Yet, thedy presented in front of their eyes had nothing save soft skin and good looks. Hardly anyone could resist being enticed by her. Should she be truly wicked on the inside, Lucas would never have invested in her. and Miranda both were horrified, their faces as white as a sheet. Never in est dreams did they anticipate anyone to point out something like that in esence. cas had yet to finish listening to them, but he was already going through the roof. ¡°What? Didn¡¯t theye to you with the DNA test? | read the report with my own eyes! How in the world did you turn out to be their adopted daughter? Your life with the Yates family must''ve been a living hell all these months!¡± The more Lucas went on, the angrier he became. He, for one, knew that Cassandra had always been sensible and thoughtful since childhood. When she had no ce/to call home, she worked herself to the bone and became a world-famous fashion designer by the name ¡°ine.¡± Not only that, but she was also a Ill 11:37 Sat, 17 Feb 0 Chapter 39 miracle doctor, not to mention a founder who could build a business empire alongside the Zelinski family. Sadly, she had never once experienced what kinship was, so the moment she learned that she had a family, she went all in to grab it. Worse still, before the Yates family even reached out to her, she had already secretly helped better the life of the Yates family. Otherwise, the Yates family would never have been eligible to participate in the charity g that night.Content rights by N?velDr//ama.Org. Lucas¡¯ speech was tantamount to a verdict, sanctioning the Yates family for their long overdue misdeed. It was really his first time seeing somebody calling their biological daughter an adopted one. ¡°I''m not rted to the Yates family anymore. Do not refer to me as one of them or link me to any one of them.¡± Cassandra¡¯s statement made Benjamin feel ufortable as if he had a sour lemon in his mouth. ¡°This brat! What a crude choice of words!¡± he jeered at her inwardly. ¡°Cassandra, do you still resent me? | merely couldn¡¯t bear 0 part ways with Mom and Dad. I''d never vie for their love with you. Come home, will you? Quit saying those things just to make us feel bad.¡± Yulissa spoke up, making herself seem aggrieved and pitiful. If anything, she only aroused men¡¯s desire to protect her. The parade of people began to have second opinions of her. She didn¡¯t choose to be raised in the Yates. ¡°Actually, she hasn¡¯t done anything wouldn¡¯t have been so hard on her. family for 18 years. | think Cassandra ¡°Tell me about it. At least, she¡¯s trying to ept Cassandra back into the family. | don¡¯t get why that girl must dish out such harsh words at her sister.¡± ¡°| suppose they could never be close to one another. They didn¡¯t grow up together, after all. Then came Miranda¡¯s reproach. ¡°Why do you always have to pick on Lisa every time you see her, Cassandra? How do you expect me to keep you around if you''re going to behave like this?¡± Lucas was surprised by Miranda¡¯s attitude. To think that thatdy would drop disgusting remarks right in front of everyone. o such ¡°First of all, Mrs. Yates, | didn¡¯t say a word to her. How am | in the wrong when she broke into tears out of nowhere the minute she came along? Have | even opened my mouth while standing in this spot? Secondly, she still pulled that goody-two-shoes act. Clupter 39 of hers regardless of the asion. Does she really think that everybody¡¯s just going to buy her story?¡± Once again, Cassandra saw the people from the Yates family in a whole different light. Tobel them disgusting would still be a compliment. Miranda stared at that so-called daughter of hers and how thetter was reluctant to show her even a tad of reverence, Giving Cassandra two tight ps was all that sprang her mind at that ¡°I''m your mother! Is that how you talk to me?¡± to ¡°| won''t repeat myself, Mrs. Yates, so listen up!¡± Cassandra¡¯s tone reeked of absolute iciness. ¡°I have nothing to do with the Yates family anymore. Firstly, | was never a member of the Yates family: secondly, | already paid back more than the money you all spent on me; and thirdly, for the so-called blood ties that you people had set your heart onto, | fulfilled that when her 18th birthday celebration. Why? Did y Yulissa had have a change of heart, Mrs. Yates? Wouldn''t Yulissa be finally content to see me out that door? With me gone, she''ll then be the eldest daughter of the Yates family. It''ll be killing more than two birds with one stone, so why are you two still putting on an act to show how inseparable a mother-and-daughter duo you are?¡± In Cassandra¡¯s book, what they were pulling wasughably. ¡°Why, you... You''re such an ingrate!¡± On the heels of that, Benjamin said to Lucas, ¡°I beg for your forgiveness, Mr. Hathaway. We haven''t been raising her well right from her early childhood, so she isn¡¯t too close to us. She may be blunt with her words, but please don¡¯t take it to heart. She¡¯s our daughter. We didn¡¯t sever any ties!¡± He was well aware that Cassandra was acquainted with Lucas. Considering how protective and caring Lucas was toward Cassandra, Benjamin reckoned that the two of them must have a close tic. If he could leverage Cassandra just to get on the mayor¡¯s good side, he would definitely go for it. Besides, the Yates family had way more than sufficient fortune to invest and profit fro from another individual. ¡°By blunt, are you implying that she¡¯s uncivilized? Just so you know, she learned her manners from me, so are you ming me for it? | think | got it now. You took that DNA test and picked Cassic up from Roond Vige but refused to admit her as your family for more than two months in the end. | wonder what your motive must have been. Don''t tell me you did it all for your adopted daughter. You even epted the living expenses Cassie gave you. How shameless could you guys get? Cassie¡¯s such a kind kiddo! Look at what you''ve done to this poor girl!¡± Although Cassandra did not give a hoot about the money, Lucas felt sorry for her. Ill Chapter 39 Cassandra would always keep things to herself. Had he note looking for her, he figured that she would not have shown up. Cassandra, on the other hand, began to admire Lucas¡¯ ir for putting on a good show. ¡°When | returned to the Yates family, everyone there told me that the Yates family had only one daughter and that they had only one sister, Yulissa. | thought we were family, but | didn¡¯t know better..¡± Listening to how Cassandra sounded like she was acting cute yet at the same timeining, Lucas was more than shocked. That would make sense, for Cassandra had not been close to Lucas since the day she turned ten. After the girl picked up all the skills she needed, her temperament had also changed to one of solitary. It would never ur to him that he could still see here to him for a listening ear after so long. Immediately, Lucas held his head up high, seemingly wanting to avenge Cassandra. However, Cassandra was simply following suit to y the role of a goody-two-shoes. herself and checkmate the real goody-two- shoes, Yulissa. ¡°You''re the daughter of the Hathaway family. You''ve nothing to do with people of their ilk. Since they favor their adopted daughter so much, they can keep her. Who cares, anyway? We have always wanted a daughter to call our own. Mrs. Hathaway had been waiting for ages to register you in our household, but you never said yes only because you already had one family. What now? Let''s see what other excuses you cane up with.¡± On the surface, Lucas seemed to be teaching Cassandra a lesson, but in fact, he was mocking the Yates family. ¡®Since the Yates family sees less of Cassandra, I''ll treasure the girl. Ha! They''ll regret it all in due time, was his thought. ¡°What did you say? | finally get to have a daughter?¡± That voice came from Sylvia Hathaway, the mayor¡¯s wife, as she walked in from the other side. She was supposed to show up with Lucas, but something unexpected happened, so she went to the restroom and tidied up herself before making an appearance. Little did she anticipate that the second she got out, she heard Lucas¡¯ words about Il BK 62% Chapter 39 adopting Cassandra. Of course, she would be struck with jubtion. She could not have asked for more. Sylvia¡¯s reaction surprised everyone. No one couldprehend the level of tion she was feeling even when the daughter she was about to im was not her own flesh and blood. ¡°Mrs. Hathaway, Cassandra''s just a good-for-nothing. She can barely measure up to Lisa. If you''d like-¡± Miranda was sure witty enough. She could tell that Lucas meant they wanted a daughter. From her perspective, an ingrate like Cassandra would never be worthy of that position; on the contrary, Yulissa was very much befitting, for not only was she talented, but she was also obedient. Yulissa, in turn, looked shy. She was not expecting to gain something more from that event. ¡°Do you think my ce is some kind of garbage dump? | don¡¯t collect scraps and losers!¡± hollered Sylvia. Hf Chapter 40 Chapter 40 Sylvia¡¯s words stunned Miranda. Miranda thought, ¡®What did she mean by that?¡¯ She felt utterly embarrassed and did not dare to look anywhere else. Miranda knew all too well what was in their eyes. Disdain, contempt, and amusement awaited her. However, Miranda did not expect Sylvia not to mince her words and speak directly. Even Yulissa, blushing with joy just now, wore a grim expression. She had never been so humiliated. ¡°Mrs. Hathaway, y-you have misunderstood. | simply meant to say that Lisa is kinder. and sensible. Cassandra isn¡¯t sensible, and I''m afraid she might inadvertently upset you.¡± Sylvia found herself utterly repulsed by her. ¡°Mrs. Yates, the daughter Lucas and | want is Cassandra. In fact, not just any random girl can be our daughter. Since you cherish Yulissa so much, why don¡¯t you just keep her to yourself? Cassie has nothing to do with you anyway, so there¡¯s no need for your comment.¡± Sylvia¡¯s words carried a simple message. Cassandra was someone she protected, and anyone who dared to bully her would be going against Lucas. The onlookers felt extremely envious and thought, ¡®I don¡¯t know what Cassandra did to gain Mr. Hathaway''s favor. Benjamin felt ashamed, so he pulled Miranda and Yulissa aside. However, leaving was not a possibility. The people present were all billionaires with strong foundations, unlike the Yates Group. Benjamin built Yates Group from scratch. Thepany¡¯s market value finally increased this year, so he had to seize the opportunity to interact with these people more and negotiate cooperation to consolidate Yates Group¡¯s power in Drieso. ¡°Cassandra, there¡¯s no escaping this time. | don¡¯t care. You''ll be in our household registry tomorrow, and you will be a member of the Hathaway family from now on.¡± Sylvia was genuinely fond of Cassandra. However, she was initially reluctant when Lucas funded her. tl Chapter 40 Sylvia feared Cassandra would be an ingrate who would y the victim andtch onto them when she grew up. However, Lucas felt that Cassandra was good. In fact, she was intelligent, sensible, and grateful. Hence. Lucas stubbornly persisted and started funding her when she was five years old. In the end, Sylvia could not resist his persistence and had no choice but topromise. Later, Sylvia was touched by Cassandra when she went to Roond Vige to see her. Cassandra could do anything despite her young age. She could even cook delicious dishes and take care of her bedridden grandmother, who was her adopter. Sylvia thought inwardly, ¡®When did Cassie start to change?¡¯ It was when Blossom Yates. was in thete stages of gastric cancer and had no money for treatment. Cassandra began to panic, and she asked Lucas for money once. They gave her 100 thousand dors, but it was a drop in the ocean for someone in thete stages of cancer. Cassandra felt too embarrassed to ask again. Hence, she started studying hard at the age of ten. She learned anything that could earn money and grew at the fastest pace. Sylvia helped sell Cassandra¡¯s first fashion design drawing, which fetched 200 thousand dors. Everything was used to pay the medical expenses. Cassandra delved into everything, learned various skills, and made money. Yet, Blossom passed away. Cassandra became cold after Blossom¡¯s death. She hardly wore any expression except for a faint smile directed at them. She impatiently wanted to drive Jeremiah even when she saved him. If it weren¡¯t for his shamelessness... ¡°Sylvia, you''re biased. You took her as your daughter. Why not just adopt me as your son, too?¡± Jeremiah adopted an obedient facade. Now that ine had be a child of the Hathaway family, he would be one, too, in the future. Sylvia looked at him with a teasing expression. ¡°What? Do you want to be Cassie¡¯s brother?¡± Cassandra was speechless and thought, ¡®How about asking for my opinion first?¡¯ ¡°All right. Let¡¯s not stand here and talk. Cassie, let me take you to meet someone first.¡± Cassandra still listened to Lucas¡¯ words, so she followed him upstairs. 11:37 Sat, 17 Feb Chapter 40 Meanwhile, Keh was sitting expressionless and motionless in the reception room. Yannick and Kayden would have thought that Keh was quiteposed if it weren''t for his restless hands. Just then, the door of the reception room was pushed open. It was Cassandra and Lucas. ¡°Mr. Zelinski, I''ve brought my daughter to meet you. Please take good care of her in the future,¡± Lucas said with a smile. Cassandra was speechless and mused inwardly, ¡®Doesn¡¯t Mr. Hathaway know who | am? Why is he doing this? My business empire is there. Do | still need someone to take care of myself?¡± ¡°Is she your daughter?¡± He wondered, ¡®Didn¡¯t Cassie leave the Yates family to live on her own?¡± ¡°Starting tomorrow.¡± ¡°Mr. Hathaway...¡± ¡°Cassie, say hello to Mr. Zelinski. He¡¯s your elder.¡± Cassandra was left dumbfounded. Keh was rendered speechless, too, and he mused, ¡°What did he ask her to call me? | must have not caught what he said. Kayden was amused when he heard this address. ¡°Keh, it seems that you''re getting a bit old. You''re really getting old for letting such a cute girl call you that.¡± Keh tried hard to control the anger welling up inside him. He thought inwardly, ¡°I can¡¯t be angry. | can¡¯t get angry now. | shouldn''t get physical, at least not in front of Cassie. It will frighten her.¡¯ ¡°Call me Ken. Ms. Yates, | shouldn¡¯t be much older than you.¡± Keh was nine years older than Cassandra. She was 18 years old, and he was 27. It was not a ten-year age difference, so he was not that much older than her. ¡°K-Ken?¡± Cassandra called tentatively. Her tone was cold and devoid of emotions. However, for Keh, it was like music to his ears. 111 [e) Chapter 40 He thought, ¡®Cas sic called me Ken!¡± Lucas smiled satisfactorily, and they continued to talk for a while. Before leaving, Lucas asked Keh to look after Cassandra at this g before going. This was because Lucas was worried that he might be unable to attend to Cassandra if he got busy, and the Yates family might cause trouble for her. Keh nodded slightly in response, indicating his agreement. In fact, he was ecstatic inside. So, Keh bent his arms, allowing Cassandra to link her arms with his. Cassandra was speechless. ¡°Mr. Zelinski, | think there¡¯s no need for this. You don¡¯t have to look after me.¡± She did not need anyone else with Jeremiah around. Cassandra still hadn''t figured out why Keh helped her seek revenge in her previous. life. 4 She mused, ¡®Did we meet at some point, or did | just forget that we know each other?¡± However, Cassandra remembered everything. She did not have amnesia. She couldn''t figure out how she and Keh had any connection. ¡°You called me Ken a moment ago. Howe it¡¯s Mr. Zelinski now?¡± Keh did not like how she addressed him.This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org. He mused inwardly, ¡®Mr. Zelinski is what strangers and subordinates call me. She¡¯s Cassie, so she should call me Ken.¡¯ my Cassandra implied, ¡°Mr. Zelinski, | don¡¯t need someone to look after me. Mr. Hathaway was just joking with you earlier. You don¡¯t have to take it to heart.¡± ¡°I''m just doing what I¡¯ve been entrusted with. I''ll hand you over to Mr. Hathaway when | see himter, and it won¡¯t be my concern anymore.¡± Keh¡¯s voice instantly turned colder. He thought, ¡®Does Cassie not want to stay with me like this? Is she afraid of me?¡¯ ¡°Okay.¡± Cassandra refused to link arms with Keh, and she simply followed behind him and Chapter 40 came to the auction venue. Just as they took a few steps forward, a discordant voice spoke. ¡°Is this Angel¡¯s Wing? Isn¡¯t it not for sale? How did it appear here?

She thought, ¡®Cassandra, let''s see how you turn this around!¡¯ The person questioning Cassandra was Yulissa¡¯s friend. Initially, the woman did not pay much attention to Cassandra, but Yulissa¡¯s feigned grievance and tearfulints ignited her anger. So, the former decided to teach thetter a lesson., Yulissa said, ¡°Maybe we should let it go. Cassandra seems to have befriended some wealthy people. The gown she¡¯s wearing is Angel''s Wing.

Why don¡¯t you change it?¡± Once she suggested that, everyone praised her for her kindness and willingness to let bygones be bygones. She felt she had redeemed her reputation. Cassandra stared at that group of ignorant people who staged the scene themselves, and her eyes were filled with contempt. ¡°Do you have any evidence to prove that this is fake? If not, I''ll have to sue you for defamation.¡± There was a strong undertone of warning despite her casual tone. ¡°Do we still need evidence for this? Can you even afford it?¡± ¡°Morgana, don¡¯t say that.¡± Yulissa pulled the hand of Morgana Woolridge, her friend. ¡°Lisa, you''re just too kind. That¡¯s why she bullies you at home. She still doesn¡¯t spare you even after she¡¯s gone. Are you still going to speak up for her?¡± Morgana wore a righteous and resolute expression. She thought, ¡®Justice must be served for Yulissa today!¡¯ Yulissa wondered, ¡®Is she the legendary idiot?¡¯ She was profoundly grateful for Mogana. Thetter managed to articte everything the former wanted to say. The former was determined to make everyone see Cassandra''s malicious nature. ¡°Don¡¯t say that. Cassandra just returned home and hasn¡¯t gotten used to it yet. | just... | don¡¯t feel aggrieved, and she has never bullied me.¡± With that, she began to so b. ¡°Cassandra, look! Lisa has been defending you all this time. And what about you? You wear fake goods to embarrass yourself, and you even bully her. You¡¯ve really gone too far. You must apologize to her!¡± ¡°Show me the evidence if you want to use me of wearing fake goods. Show evidence if you use me of bullying Yulissa.¡± ¡°Everything Yulissa said is true. How dare you reckon it¡¯s right for you to bully her!¡± ¡°Are you that stu pid? Why do you think whatever Yulissa tells is the truth? If she tells a judge that you¡¯vemitted murder, does that mean you¡¯re a murderer? Are you 2/4 17:35 Mon, 19 Feb G Chapter 41 5 brainless after growing up for more than 20 years, devoid of any ability to distinguish right from wrong? Which eye of yours saw me bully her? Did | say anything to her from start to end? Since she likes to cry, do | have to kneel and catch her tears? She¡¯s like a goody two-shoes and disgusts everyone wherever she goes.¡± That day was a charity g organized by Lucas. Cassandra did not want the Yates family to ruin that event. However, that bunch of losers insisted on hitting the muzzle. First, they said the gown was fake, and now they used her of bullying Yulissa. If she really wanted to bully Yulissa, thetter would not have the chance to stand here andin. Morgana argued, ¡°Look at you, acting arrogantly and iming innocence. Who will believe that!¡± Leonardo was also furious. He could not believe Cassandra said such things about Yulissa, who indeedcked manners. ¡°Cassandra, do you have any manners? How dare you bully Yulissa publicly? Do you not take me seriously?¡± He felt he was too soft-hearted. He always regarded her as his biological sister, so he could not bear to send her to Desert Ind no matter what. However, she actually got worse and bullied Yulissa right in front of him. ¡°Mr. Yates, don¡¯t you know my parentage is unknown? | don¡¯t know who gave birth to me. Don¡¯t you know well that | have a mother who gave birth to me but no parents to raise me? | don¡¯t think you should use me of myck of manners. Your family doesn¡¯t deserve to be treated well by me!¡± Leonardo was momentarily speechless. It was true that Cassandra spent 18 years in the countryside and was indeed uneducated. Yet, it was traitorous for her to announce her parentage was unknown. ¡°Silly girl, that¡¯s nonsense. Aren¡¯t you bing my daughter tomorrow?¡± Sylvia walked out from backstage and gazed at Cassandra gently. ¡°I''m the one who taught her manners. Mr. Yates, are you ming me?¡± Sylvia practically, had contempt and disdain written all over her face. Leonardo could not utter a word. Of course, he dared not do so. She was Lucas¡¯ wife. He pondered, ¡®That da mn Cassandra doesn¡¯t even know how to speak up for me.¡¯ Sylvia naturally shielded Cassandra behind her, which deeply moved thetter. Thetter felt no one had ever protected her like that apart from her grandmother. 3/4This material belongs to N?velDrama.Org. 4/4 72% Chapter 41 Cassandra suddenly felt Sylvia was shining brightly in her eyes. A bitter feeling surged within her, and she was affected emotionally. ¡°When | was inside, | overheard that this youngdy ims Cassie¡¯s gown was fake. Is that correct?¡± Sylvia¡¯s gaze turned to Morgana. Morgana thought it was an excellent opportunity, but her mother stopped her from speaking further. Her family could not afford to offend Lucas. ¡°Yes! Angel¡¯s Wing is ine¡¯s masterpiece. How can we allow counterfeit goods to circte in the market?¡± Yulissa and she admired ine the most. Every season, they bought their clothes from Thousand Dreams, a brand created by ine herself. Sylvia had a look on her face as if she were dealing with someone ment ally disabled. She thought, ¡°These losers, iming to admire ine, don¡¯t even recognize the real person standing before them.¡¯ ¡°Cassie is ine herself. She¡¯s wearing a gown designed by herself. Any problem with that?¡± Her words were like a heavy bombshell, leaving everyone present stunned! Yulissa¡¯s originally proud face turned extremely pale in an instant! SEND Chapter 42 Chapter 42 ¡®ine? How could Cassandra be ine? It¡¯s impossible! She is just a country bumpkin. She couldn¡¯t do anything, even worse in studying. How could she be a costume designer? Not to mention, an expert in design is someone | admire,¡¯ thought Yulissa. She then concluded silently, ¡®Sylvia must be lying to me. The ine in my heart is a pure and intelligent woman. She is someone | would love to work for as an apprentice + in the future. | will never believe it!¡± Before Yulissa could retort to Sylvia, Morgana had already voiced her displeasure, ¡°Mrs. Hathaway, don¡¯t create such a lie for us. Even if you want to make up a story, please give her a more proper background. Everyone knows Cassandra well. She has lived in the countryside for 18 years. How could she be ine?¡± Morgana found it amusing. It wasmon knowledge that ine had gained poprity eight years ago, establishing her own brand as a neer in the industry and ultimately rising to the pinnacle of the fashion design world. Cassandra, on the other hand, was only ten years old. What could a ten-year-old possibly achieve? Consequently, Morgana couldn''t help but perceive Sylvia as a braggart. ¡°Do you realize | was the one who sold ine¡¯s inaugural design? | would certainly recognize her.¡± Back then, Cassandra staunchly declined any support from Sylvia and her husband. Cassandra was adamant about earning her own money, so she eventually sold that initial design. Frankly, in Sylvia¡¯s perspective, these individuals couldn''t even hold a candle to Cassandra. Upon hearing this, Keh couldn¡¯t help but feel a pang of sorrow in his heart. His little girl had endured a great deal in his absence. He silently vowed that he must treat her with more kindness in the future. Morgana¡¯s face stiffened, and her bewildered expression inadvertently revealed her true feelings. She was currently panicking. She was well aware that Sylvia had sold ine¡¯s inaugural design, a crucial factor in ine¡¯s subsequent sess. Despite this knowledge, Morgana feignedposure and asserted, ¡°Mrs. Hathaway, don¡¯t let her deceive you. She¡¯s nothing more than a rustic imposter in counterfeit FUSbRR72% Chapter 42 attire.¡± In truth, shecked confidence as she uttered those words. After all, if Cassandra were truly ine, she would be adorned in the garments of her own brand, and how could those clothes she was wearing possibly be counterfeit? ¡°You keep insisting that I¡¯m wearing a counterfeit. Do you not realize that what you have on is one?¡± Cassandra cast a disdainful nce at Morgana. ¡®Mocking me while wearing a counterfeit of my brand? Well, then, | won¡¯t hold back either, thought Cassandra. Morgana was displeased upon hearing this. She believed Cassandra had crossed the line. As the daughter of Woolridge Construction, wearing counterfeits was unthinkable for her. ¡°Don''t you dare falsely use me. How can you say that when you''re the one wearing imitations? You owe me an apology!¡± After all, she had spent 400 thousand dors on the new design by ine, specifically for the event, intending to be the center of attention. Consequently, Morgana couldn¡¯t simply brush off Cassandra¡¯s im that it was fake. At that moment, she had a strong urge to rip Cassandra¡¯s mouth off. 5 ¡°"Thousand Dreams¡¯ is personally crafted by ine. Apart from featuring the distinctive ¡®Thousand Dreams¡¯ logo, every piece also bears ine¡¯s exclusive letter ¡®E, which is visible in lighting due to its special materials. Those acquainted with ¡®Thousand Dreams¡¯ and ine would undoubtedly recognize these details.¡± Each creation by Cassandra bore the letter ¡°E,¡± symbolizing her identity. This detail was the very reason Jeremiah consistently referred to her as ine, a short form derived from her name, ine. ¡°I''m aware that ine includes an ¡®E¡¯ on every garment, visible only under the lighting,¡± remarked one person. ¡°Exactly. | have some garments designed by ine at home, and | stumbled upon those letters by chance,¡± another person commented. ¡°| noticed that too,¡± one added. Cassandra was relieved to hear that there were people who noticed it. She then stepped into the light and pivoted. Shortly after, the hem of her ck dress 2/5 17:35 Mon, 19 Feb G Chapter 42 revealed a small white ¡°E.¡± However, only the letter on this particr garment was in white. Despite that, it was sufficient evidence of the authenticity of her ¡°Angel''s Wing.¡± +5 Jeremiah strode over to Cassandra and cast a contemptuous look at the onlookers. ¡°Curious about why the ¡®E¡¯ on Angel¡¯s Wing is white? It aligns with the design concept of this dress, a glimmer in the dark.¡± ¡°Isn¡¯t he the acting CEO of ¡®Thousand Dreams¡±?¡± a woman eximed in surprise. Jeremiah smiled and said, ¡°It seems that someone recognizes me. ine, it seems that I¡¯m more popr than you.¡± Cassandra was speechless when she heard that. ¡®Crazy man!¡¯ shemented. Cassandra decided not to pay attention to him. ¡°Ms. Woolridge, there is no letter ¡®E¡¯ on the dress you are wearing. If it isn¡¯t an imitation, what could it be?¡± Morgana found it difficult to believe. Having invested 400 thousand dors in the dress, it seemed inconceivable that it would be fake.. She stood in the light, her expression one of disbelief. Unfortunately, despite her efforts, no one could discern the appearance of the elusive ¡°E.¡±This material belongs to N?velDrama.Org. It was a total p in the face. Morgana was in a state of panic at that moment, unsure of how to escape such embarrassment. Suddenly, her mother, Grace Woolridge, stepped forward and pped her across the face. Morgana stared at her mother in disbelief. ¡°Mom, why did you hit me?¡± Grace was furious and said, ¡°Why can¡¯t | do so? | want you to apologize to Mrs. Hathaway and Ms. Cassandra Yates!¡± If Morgana refused to apologize that day, things might not have ended smoothly for her family. ¡°Mrs. Woolridge, do you genuinely believe that everything can be resolved with a simple apology?¡± 3/5 Mon, 19 Feb Chapter 42 Bi 72% Cassandra rolled her eyes as she contemted why Jeremiah seemed to consistently echo her sentiments. Keh, however, stood nearby silently while trying to figure out Cassandra¡¯s rtionship with Jeremiah. ¡®Why is he the acting CEO? Isn¡¯t he a racer and the second inmand at Whitecrane Hall? What''s his connection with Cassie? And why does Cecilia seem so at ease around her, even being herself?¡¯ he pondered. ¡°| will not apologize! Why should | apologize?¡± Yulissa stepped forward at this moment. She took a deep breath and said, ¡°Morgana, you''ve crossed the line this time. | apologize to you on behalf of my sister.¡± Then, addressing Cassandra, she added, ¡°Cassandra, we''re alldies here. Whatever happened today is just a friendly banter. Please do me a favor since I¡¯m your sister. Can we let it go, please?¡± As soon as her words were uttered, everyone regarded her as very sensible for trying to consider the greater good. Cassandra, on the other hand, seemed to treat Yulissa¡¯s words as a joke and responded, ¡°Sister? | don¡¯t recall having a sister. Are you referring to yourself? Please forgive me. | will never do a favor for you. Morgana attacked me when Mr. Zelinski and | entered. Why? My guess is that she was trying to seek revenge on your behalf. After all, Morgana and | had never met before. How could she know who to shoot? | can¡¯t think of any other reason than to vent her anger on your behalf. Besides, we¡¯re not friends. There¡¯s no joking around here. If | weren''t ine today, she would have probably forced me to kneel and confess my supposed mistakes. Such a person doesn¡¯t deserve my forgiveness. Nevertheless, | admire the straightforwardness of someone who dares to confront me directly. Compared to those despicable individuals who resort to secret schemes and provocation, she is much more open and straightforward!¡± Yulissa¡¯s expression darkened, and she appeared terribly displeased. Each word spoken by Cassandra only fueled her anger further. ¡®Cassandra, why don¡¯t you just go die?¡¯ she thought. ¡°Cassandra, you''ve gone too far. Yulissa is your sister!¡± Miranda scolded Cassandra, standing up in an attempt to shield Yulissa. ¡°I''ve told you¡ªI don¡¯t have a sister.

It¡¯s time to apologize. You''re not wee at the charity auction tonight. The Woolridge family, please leave.¡± Grace felt embarrassed that night. In her view, Yulissa was to me for all of it. Cassandra was correct. Her daughter, Morgana, didn¡¯t know Cassandra at all. Yet, she somehow knew precisely who to target. There was no doubt that someone had intentionally orchestrated the situation! Grace pressed Morgana¡¯s head and forced thetter to apologize to Cassandra. Then, they hurriedly departed without looking back. She didn¡¯t dare to meet the eyes of those present. Her family was others spite at now, and she expected nothing but scorn and ridicule on their faces: ¡°If the Yates family still intends to attend the event tonight, stay put. If you can¡¯t manage your daughter properly, don¡¯t me me for being impolite!¡± She made it clear that she would not hesitate to remove them to appease Cassandra¡¯s displeasure. After the farce concluded, Sylvia went backstage. When Sylvia recognized that Lucas. was not suitable to handle the situation that happened moments ago, she took it upon herself to address matters. Cassandra followed Keh to the front row. Meanwhile, Yulissa and her family could only take seats at the far end. ¡°Hello, everyone.

At this point, she was reluctant to get involved. ¡®Forget it. | don¡¯t want it anymore!

In this circle, no one will even pay attention to it. Why would Dad donate it?¡¯ he wondered. Benjamin didn¡¯t expect things to turn out this way, either. ¡®Weren''t they informed that we can donate anything we want? Why aren''t these people ying by the rules and donating something more expensive than the previous item?¡¯ he wondered. ¡°The starting price is 30,000 dors.¡± Silence then ensued.

It¡¯s truly precious. Dad has cherished it like a treasure, and | never anticipated him donating it today. As their daughter, | couldn¡¯t bear to witness my father parting with his beloved possessions, so | used my pocket money to secure it for him. Thank you.¡± Her words dispelled any preconceived notions among the audience. They hadn''t anticipated such a romantic story behind a seemingly ordinary watch. However, the other three members of the Yates family appeared perplexed. To them, it was just amon wristwatch, and they couldn¡¯t fathom why Yulissa would attach such significance to it. Leonardo''s expression took on a slightly gloomy cast. ¡®Why would Lisa lie?¡¯ he thought. Over an hourter, nearly all the donated items were showcased and auctioned, with the exception of the Yates family, who surprisingly refrained from participating. appearing almost like jokes. However, not only did they abstain, but Cassandra and Keh also chose not to bid on anything. The auction was drawing to a close, and there were two more items left to be auctioned off. ¡°The second-tost item up for auction is a gold stephane adorned with an eagle carving, generously donated by Mr. Zelinski.

Whenever Cassandra ced a bid, Leonardo would follow suit, initially adding 1 million dors and then appending 400 thousand dors. However, as the amounts escted, he would add the bid with only an additional 200 thousand dors. Keh saw the determination in Cassandra¡¯s eyes. He asked in a low voice, ¡°You like it, don¡¯t you?¡± ¡°Yes.¡± ¡°Then, I''ll win it for you.¡± ¡°That¡¯s not necessary. I''ll do it myself.¡± After all, he had given Faye so much money.

It''s Dr. Quirke¡¯s ¡®Restorative Pill"!¡± Everyone was taken aback upon hearing this revtion, as they had believed that such a pill no longer existed! The Restorative Pill was a small medicinal capsule developed by Cassandra some time ago, designed to aid in the healing of broken hands and legs. ¡°400 million dors!¡± It was Keh who made the offer! 676 Chapter 44 Chapter 44 Cassandra looked at Keh and thought, ¡®Kayden¡¯s leg has been cured! Why would he still try to win it?*. The pill served as a test of the Yates family¡¯s sincerity. Cassandra aimed to instigate discord within the family, especially targeting Raymond, who was known for his youthfulness and impulsivity. The idea was to create a scenario where he discovered a medicine capable of saving him, yet his parents, brother, and sister, who were present at the scene, refused to purchase it for him. Cassandra could envision the torment this revtion would inflict upon him. She had arranged for the medicine to be auctioned off. If the Yates family could fork out 4 billion dors for it, she might choose to give the pill to them. Regardless, half of the money would find its way into her pocket, and this maneuver would also help Cassandra cultivate a favorable reputation. It was a strategic move, allowing her to achieve multiple objectives simultaneously. However, she was taken aback at this point as Keh unexpectedly raised the bidding amount to 400 million dors. ¡°Mr. Zelinski, why are you trying to win this medicine? Isn¡¯t that friend of ours have recovered?¡± In her view, since Kayden had recovered, there was no need to waste the money on the pill anymore! Keh was momentarily stunned. ¡®How did Cassandra find out that the patient | have has recovered? Does she care about me as much as | care about her?¡® he wondered. Such a realization was exciting to him. He thought, ¡®Is Cassie in love with me? ¡°How did you know that the patient | have back home can stand up?¡± ¡°Everyone in Drieso knows it. Why wouldn¡¯t I?¡± Cassandra responded, puzzled by Keh¡¯s question. ¡°It''s not surprising that everyone in Drieso knows about it, but | am curious about how you found out,¡± Keh inquired. After all, Cassandra wouldn¡¯t have known about such news as she never paid attention- 1/6 17:35 Mon, 19 Feb G Chapter 44 to them. 72% Besides, from his knowledge, Cassandra didn¡¯t have any connections to the Dark Web. ¡°Jeremiah told me about it.¡± Desiring to halt his inquiries, she fabricated a lie. Keh didn¡¯t expect such an answer. His good mood vanished instantly. He was about to say something when Riley interrupted him. ¡°Someone has bid 500 million dors. Is there anything higher than that?¡± ¡°Riley, | want to verify the authenticity of this ¡®Restorative Pill,¡± a boss interrogated the host as he stood up. ¡°We understand your concerns. When Ms. Cassandra Yates donated this pill, we consulted Hugo from Whitecrane Hall to verify its authenticity. He has confirmed it. You can rest assured!¡± Upon hearing Riley¡¯s statement, Benjamin became so infuriated that he gritted his teeth tightly! ¡®This brat! She knows that Ray has hurt his hand, but she didn¡¯t try to save him when she possessed such medicine and tried to auction it off. This damn girl is so unfilial. She doesn¡¯t care about the Yates family at all! Leonardo''s expression was extremely grimpared to Benjamin''s.This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org. The bidding amount was already 500 million dors at this moment. He contemted how to secure that pill. If it turned out to be genuine, it would be something everyone would strive to obtain. Cassandra decided to add another bombshell! She sent a message to Jeremiah. Upon receiving it, Jeremiah stood up and dered, ¡°This pill is an additional Restorative Pill that Dr. Quirke managed to refine. In addition to the 100 pills sold publicly before, this is thest one. The only two telegraph nts have run out. | suppose | don¡¯t need to emphasize the value of this pill at this point.¡± Jeremiah then sat down. Meanwhile, his news caused everyone in turmoil. Jeremiah also held the position as the second-inmand of Whitecrane Hall. Hugo garnered more respect solely due to his seniority over Jeremiah. Only those who had 2/6 17:36 Mon, 19 Feb G Chapter 44 coborated closely with Whitecrane Hall were aware that Jeremiah was the true head of the organization, apart from the miracle doctor. Therefore, the credibility of his words carried significant weight. There was no doubt of this, as a few families at the scene had worked with Whitecrane Hall before and had seen Jeremiah there. ¡°600 million dors!¡± ¡°700 million dors!¡± ¡°770 million dors!¡± Keh felt a surge of anger at this point. ¡®Why are these people trying topete with me for Cassie¡¯s donation?¡® he questioned silently. ¡®It belongs to Cassie. So | must win it no matter what!" he decided. ¡°4 billion dors!¡± People clenched their teeth and privately cursed Keh for hisck of ethics. Most had incrementally added a maximum of 100 million dors each time, but Keh jumped ahead by nearly 240 million dors in one go. Honestly, no one could surpass the Zelinski family in terms of financial resources. Thus, many quit the battle. ¡°4 billion dors. Is there anything higher than that?¡± Meanwhile, Riley couldn¡¯t help but think, ¡®This is the most expensive item I¡¯ve ever auctioned! 1 billion dors!

As long as someone was willing to pay such a high price, she was content to let it be. 3/6 17:36 Mon, 19 Feb G Chapter 44 ¡®Is he rich and stupid?* 7T2%2 11 She had only spent around 600 million dors to 800 million dors for two telegraph. nts, but the current bidding price had doubled that amount. Moreover, the significant concern was that the money belonged to Keh, and she genuinely didn¡¯t want him to squander it. ¡°Let them have it. The bidding price is way beyond its value now.¡± For her, the pill was not worthy of a higher price. Keh froze, not because Cassandra had halted him, but because he was secretly cheering in his heart at that very moment! ¡®Oh my god! Cassie is touching my hand! Her hand is so tender and soft. | really want to hold her. No. | shouldn¡¯t scare her!¡¯ Thus, Keh listened to her and backed away from the bidding. ¡°4.76 billion dors going once, 1.76 billion dors going twice, and 1.76 billion dors going thrice! Congrattions. Mr. Zelinski, for winning ¡®Restorative Pill!¡± Riley announced the winner firmly. Leonardo''s expression was way beyond grim. He couldn¡¯tpete with the world¡¯s richest man in terms of financial resources. He had money, but they were limited. Thest ¡°Restorative Pill¡± was bought by Keh in front of him just like that! ¡®What''s going to happen to Ray''s hand now?¡¯ he wondered. Benjamin and Miranda were also anxious. Without this pill and the possibility of engaging the miracle doctor¡¯s services, they couldn¡¯t help but feel concerned for Raymond¡¯s hand, fearing it might be permanently damaged. Meanwhile, Yulissa saw it as an excellent opportunity to fuel further animosity between her parents, brother, and Cassandra. She began to sob. ¡°How could Cassandra do this? She knows that Ray needs the ¡®Restorative Pill¡® for his hand. Why did she put it up for auction? Does she have to earn the money, or does she simply not care about the family?¡± Yulissa sobbed intensely, feeling a profound sense of sorrow for Raymond. 4/5 17:36 Mon, 19 Feb G Chapter 44 Leonardo''s disdain for Cassandra intensified, and he felt a strong desire to confront her about the situation. ¡®Why do you have to ruin Ray¡¯s hope?¡® he wondered. Following the auction, a cocktail party was held. Half of the funds from this charity auction would be returned to the participating families, while the remaining amount would be allocated to support impoverished farming counties and students. The specifics and objectives of each sum would be disclosed quarterly. Consequently, many individuals were inclined to follow the mayor¡¯s lead in engaging in phnthropy, recognizing it as an excellent opportunity to enhance their reputations. Despite being apany valued at around 20 billion dors, the Yates Group only auctioned off a watch for 30,000 dors and failed to secure any other items. Even their estranged daughter, who was disowned by them, sessfully won a headdress. Cassandra felt a bit embarrassed, having garnered an additional 880 million dors from Keh and used his funds for charitable purposes. ¡®It really is embarrassing,¡¯ she thought. The Yates family hadn''t followed the troops to the reception. They were waiting for Cassandra. When Cassandra approached, Miranda hastily stepped in front of her, raising her hand, poised to p Cassandra. However, Keh, positioned next to Cassandra, would never allow Miranda¡¯s hand to reach Cassandra¡¯s face. Unbeknownst to him, Cassandra also instinctively made a defensive move. She raised her hand, prepared to intercept Miranda¡¯s hand, but Keh acted first. ¡°You are asking for trouble!¡± Keh retorted sharply, his toneced with menace. Miranda was too scared of him to say anything at that point. ¡°You, the Yates family, can never leave me in peace, can you? Why rush out now to p me? | have nothing to do with the Yates family anymore. Do you think you still have the right to strike me?¡± Cassandra¡¯s expression remained indifferent, her demeanor distant, as if strangers were not allowed to be near her! 1 5/6 36 Mon, 19 Feb Chapter 44 72% Leonardo stepped forward and said to Cassandra, ¡°Cassandra, why didn¡¯t you take the initiative to bring out the ¡®Restorative Pill¡¯ for Ray when you have it? Don¡¯t you know that he needs it?¡± +5 With Keh present, he didn¡¯t dare to throw a fit. He couldn''t quite fathom the rtionship between Keh and Cassandra. However, judging from what he had just witnessed, it was apparent that Keh was fiercely protective of Cassandra. Leonardo decided it would be unwise to offend Keh. ¡°Are you out of your mind? Why should | give it to him just because he needs it? This pill is mine. It¡¯s none of your business what | want to do with it. Since | put it up for public auction, you can bid for it. The highest bidder gets it. If you bid for it, it will be yours. Isn''t it more meaningful if you give it to Raymond yourself?¡± ¡®Look at their take¡ªthings¡ªfor¡ªgranted tone! They are utterly idiotic!¡¯ thought Cassandra. 6/6 Chapter 45 Chapter 45 72% ¡°Ray got hurt because of you. If you and your partner hadn¡¯t hit him with a car, he wouldn¡¯t have be like this. Don¡¯t you feel guilty?¡± Leonardo was so disappointed in Cassandra! He couldn''t believe what she had just said. She just didn¡¯t see herself as part of the Yates . family! Cassandra really admired Leonardo¡¯s ability to twist the truth. She couldn¡¯t help but want to apud him! ¡°Are you saying that | hit him with my car?¡± ¡°Are you trying to deny it? Yulissa saw it with her own eyes!¡± ¡°If that¡¯s the case, she must be very blind! Please check the surveince footage and see what really happened that night. If it weren''t for me and Jeremiah, do you think your baby sister could stand here in one piece? If it weren¡¯t for me, Raymond would not have left the hospital alive. Raymond is shameless. | saved him, yet he used me of hitting him. Yulissa, you are shameless too. Your entire family is pathetic!¡± After all, if Cassandra wanted Raymond to suffer, she would hit their car. She would instead watch him and Yulissa fall off the cliff! ¡°They will not be able to argue with me with such faces if | really let that happen,* she thought. ¡°What do you mean?¡± Leonardo didn¡¯t understand what Cassandra said. ¡°Leo, let''s not confront Cassandra. Let''s leave.¡± Yulissa hurriedly stopped Leonardo from asking more questions. She worried that Cassandra would say something that would put her in a tight spot! She just couldn''t let that happen! ¡°Why are you interrupting and trying to stop me from saying anything further? Yulissa, why are you feeling guilty?¡± Cassandra¡¯s presence was imposing. If it hadn¡¯t been for Miranda¡¯s p, she would have remainedposed. Unfortunately, they had intentionallye to cause her trouble. ¡°lL... Pm not!¡± 115 17:36 Mon, 19 Feb GContent rights by N?velDr//ama.Org. Chapter 45 Cassandra ignored Yulissa¡¯s pretentious acts. She felt sick whenever she watched it. ¡°Leonardo, it was Raymond who proposed changing the rules before the race that day. To surpass Jeremiah, he opted to elerate, but his younger sister, Yulissa, got scared at that crucial moment and pulled his steering wheel. The car went out of control, swaying on the winding road. | don¡¯t need to remind you how thrilling that was, do I?¡± She then added, ¡°On thest curve, Yulissa even leaned half of her body onto Raymond to grab the steering wheel from him. If it weren''t for me and Jeremiah hitting the car, your family would be mourning the loss of two.members instead of shouting in front of me! After the car stopped, Yulissa ran away without looking back. She abandoned the injured Raymond. She ran so fast, directly got into the car, and left without asking anyone to check on him.¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t stop there. ¡°If it weren¡¯t for my mercy, do you think Mr. Raymond Yates would have just lost his hand? What right do you, a bunch of ungrateful fools, have to demand my things as if you deserve them?¡± ¡®Since you''re trying to stop me from telling the truth, | shall make it known to everyone!¡® thought Cassandra. Leonardo''s face turned pale as he was shocked by the truth. He looked at Yulissa in disbelief. His expression seemed as if he was asking Yulissa if it was true. The color drained from Yulissa¡¯s face. She then pretended to be calm. ¡°Don''t try to nder me. It was you who deliberately bumped into us to get revenge on me and Ray, ultimately causing Ray to lose his hand!¡± ¡®| won''t admit it! Anyway, | have spent money to destroy the surveince footage. They won''t be able to find out the truth!¡¯ thought Yulissa. ¡°You can say whatever you want to say. You have already paid money to get the surveince footage from that night. What are you scared of?¡± Cassandra¡¯s contemptuous eyes put Yulissa in an incredibly embarrassing spot! ¡®Cassandra, why are you here? Why don¡¯t you go to hell!¡® she thought. ¡°Leo, don¡¯t you believe me? | will never lie.¡± Cassandra was speechless. Cassandra thought, ¡®The queen of liars swearing that she never lies is the biggest lie she has ever told.¡¯ ¡°You are free to investigate the truth, and it¡¯s your choice to trust Yulissa. However, the medicine is mine, and how | choose to handle it is my business, not yours. The Yates 2/5 17:36 Mon, 19 Feb G Chapter 45 G 12% family has no say in the matter!¡± Turning away, Cassandra strolled toward the cocktail party. The presence of the Yates family always seemed to taint the air, a feeling she couldn¡¯t shake. Benjamin seethed with anger at Cassandra¡¯s demeanor. 5 Nheless, considering Cassandra had the miracle doctor¡¯s medicine in her possession, it meant that she had the means to locate Faye and have him treat Raymond. At that moment, they could negotiate the terms and secure the treatment at the price they desired! At the cocktail party, Cassandra found herselfpelled to apany Sylvia, who insisted on introducing her to more people. . The intention was clear-to have these connections at Cassandra''s disposal in the future. ¡°Cassandra, | want to talk to you. Can youe out with me for a moment?¡± The earlier discontent appeared to have vanished for Yulissa. Despite only a few moments having passed, she sought out Cassandra with a conciliatory demeanor. ¡°What can¡¯t we talk here? We don¡¯t have any secrets between us!¡± Cassandra¡¯s words implied her rejection. Yulissa blinked her bright eyes, and tears started to roll down her cheeks. ¡°Cassandra, | really want to talk to you. Can you not decline my request?¡± ¡°Okay, let¡¯s go.¡± Cassandra really wanted to see what Yulissa was up to. In her past life, Miranda had requested Yulissa to apany her to this specific charity g. At the same time and location, Yulissa urged Cassandra to join her on the second- floor terrace in that life, too. However, things took a sudden turn when Yulissa ended up falling into the first-floor swimming pool. Leonardo nervously rescued her, and tearfully, she used Cassandra of pushing her. ¡®It seems like a good show would be starting soon!¡¯ thought Cassandra. They arrived at the second floor¡¯s terrace. A ce Cassandra was familiar with. ¡°What do you want to talk about?¡± Cassandra looked at Yulissa quietly. 3/5 Chapter 45 ¡°Cassandra, are you upset? Naturally, you would be. Mom, Dad, and the brothers only favor me and not you, after all.¡± Cassandra snorted and said contemptuously, ¡°Do you think | still care?¡± Yulissa continued, ¡°How can you not care? They are your biological parents and brothers. Yet, they are so nice to me. How could you not be jealous?¡± ¡°So what if I¡¯m jealous? So what if I¡¯m not?¡± ¡°Cassandra, | simply wish to witness you feeling isted when jealousy takes hold. I¡¯ve lived in the Yates residence for eighteen years, and this is my home. How can an outsider like you be permitted to enter our family? Isn¡¯t that right, Cassandra?¡± ¡°So, you intentionally arranged a storeroom for me to use as a bedroom upon my return. You harassed me while falsely portraying to the entire clueless Yates family that | was the one mistreating you? Yulissa, is it really interesting to do all that?¡± +5 Cassandra had known that Yulissa was a wolf in sheep¡¯s clothing since she woke up. She always acted differently before different people. However, Yulissa¡¯s mistake was to deem Cassandra a timid person. ¡°It''s intriguing. Prior to your return, | expanded my room and imed the space Leo had set up for you. | informed Mom and Dad that |cked room for my new clothes and bags, prompting them to knock down the wall of that room and merge it with mine. Does that upset you?¡± Even though Leonardo harbored a dislike for the sister he had never met, Cassandra was still connected to him by blood. As the eldest son of the family, he couldn¡¯t push things too far, so he attempted to treat both sisters fairly. He arranged a room for Cassandra, albeit smaller than Yulissa¡¯s. However, Yulissa was not willing to let that country bumpkin snatch her brother¡¯s affection away from her. ¡°You asked me toe here to listen to that?¡± ¡®I''m sorry, but I¡¯m not interested in wasting more time with you!" thought Cassandra. ¡°No.¡± Yulissa advanced toward Cassandra, and they reached the edge of the terrace. ¡°Cassandra, answer me this. If you were to push me into the swimming pool, do you think Leo would take you to Desert Ind? That¡¯s a treasure he acquired unexpectedly.¡± After saying that, Yulissa suddenly grabbed Cassandra¡¯s hand and said, ¡°Ah! Cassandra, help me!¡± Bang! ¡°Ah! Someone fell into the water!¡± The waiter was startled! 4/5 5/5 Chapter 45 Everyone walked toward the terrace. ¡°Who fell into the water?¡± ¡°It''s the daughter of the Yates family!¡± SEND Chapter 46 Chapter 46 Upon hearing that it was Yulissa who fell into the pool, Leonardo swiftly dived in and rescued her. As her white dress had be somewhat transparent after getting wet, he hurriedly removed his suit jacket and draped it over her. ¡°Lisa! Lisa, how do you feel?¡± Leonardo asked worriedly. Benjamin and Miranda also hurried over and asked about her condition worriedly. They looked like such a harmonious family! ¡°L-Leo, I¡¯m fine. Ahem...¡± Yulissa snuggled weakly in Leonardo¡¯s arms. She kept trembling as she was really scared, and tears kept flowing down her cheeks. ¡°Lisa, tell me, who pushed you?¡± asked Leonardo. ¡®I''m going to tear that person apart!¡¯ he thought. Yulissa regainedposure after a while, and her body temperature gradually rose. In a weak tone, she said, ¡°Leo, d-don¡¯t me Cassandra. | want to talk to her about something. | want to apologize to her and ask her toe home. But... She didn¡¯t want toe back. It has nothing to do with her. Don¡¯t me her.¡± ¡°Who is the Cassandra she is referring to?¡± someone in the crowd asked. ¡°Cassandra Yates, | think. She¡¯s so vicious. How could she push someone into the swimming pool? Have she ever thought that something bad might happen?¡± another remarked. ¡°They didn¡¯t raise her personally, so it¡¯s normal that she¡¯s somewhat wild and hard to contain.¡± ¡°She really is from a small-time household. Look at the manners she has.¡± ¡°You know what, shouldn¡¯t we ask the staff about what really happened? Why are we jumping to conclusions because of what Yulissa said? Don¡¯t you think it¡¯s a little rash?¡± someone refuted. Cassandra looked over in that voice¡¯s direction when she heard that. It was ady in a bright yellow dress, and her face was full of righteousness. ¡®That was rare. Everyone has been pampering Yulissa, seeing her as an apple of their eyes. | can¡¯t believe there is such a righteousdy, thought Cassandra. Benjamin turned around and looked at Cassandra. He raised his hand, but he was hesitant to p her. He worried that if he did so, Lucas and Benjamin would end the 115 17:36 Mon, 19 Feb GG Chapter 46 Yates family. G 72% ¡°Why are you so ruthless? She¡¯s your sister. How could you push her into the water?¡± he questioned with a pained expression, his eyes feigning disappointment. Only Cassandra knew the extent of his indifference and how much he detested her. ¡°| don¡¯t even have parents. How can | have a sister?¡± Cassandra''s tone was cold. She constructed a wall of self-protection, using indifference and alienation, to shield herself within. ¡°You! You''re so traitorous! Am | not your father?¡± Benjamin couldn¡¯t help but feel panic surging in his heart as he witnessed Cassandra attempting to sever ties with them. The sensation left him irritable as if something crucial were slipping away from his grasp. ¡°Have you forgotten what you told me on the first day you weed me into the Yates residence, Mr. Benjamin Yates?¡± Benjamin was silent. He truly had forgotten what he had said. However, he figured that he must have warned her to be careful. There was nothing else he could have said. ¡°You said, ¡®I¡¯m not your father. Don¡¯t call me Dad. My daughter is Yulissa. Am | wrong? So, isn¡¯t it normal that | don¡¯t have parents?¡± It was the first time she felt profound disappointment. She had waited a long time for them to acknowledge her, believing she had finally found a family after Blossom¡¯s passing. Returning to the Yates family with joy, she received a heart-wrenching warning. Initially, she attributed it to her family¡¯s temporary inability to ept her. Unfortunately, she failed to realize theirck of heart until her death in her previous life. They never intended to recognize her as their daughter from the beginning. Yet, she had foolishly given them everything for two years, a realization that now struck her as utterly ridiculous. Benjamin was a little guilty and ashamed. He quickly changed the topic, using a more assertive tone. ¡°Don¡¯t change the subject. Why did you push Lisa? You must apologize to her!¡± 2/5 Chapter 46 He would not allow his baby girl to endure such grievance. Cassandra rolled her eyes and thought, ¡®This family is so blind.¡¯ ¡°Did you see me push her? Or are you making such a im because of Yulissa¡¯s words?¡± Leonardo asked Miranda to keep a hold of Yulissa. He angrily addressed Cassandra, ¡°Who would attempt to frame you at the risk of their own life, Cassandra? You''ve gone too far. Not only did you bully Lisa at home, but you also attempted to harm her here!¡± Keh walked toward Cassandra and stood in front of her. He and Jeremiah shielded her from each side. 5 Cassandra was a little stunned by his move. It was the second time he had defended her that night. However, she could handle the situation herself. ¡°Mr. Leonardo Yates, | can¡¯t help but wonder how you became the CEO of the Yates Group. Do all members of the Yates family have something wrong with their brains like you? There¡¯s a saying, ¡®Birds of a feather flock together,¡¯ and you and Yulissa seem to epitomize that. Perhaps both of you should have your brains checked. | can help you book an appointment.¡± ¡®Yulissa, since you gave me such an opportunity, don¡¯t me me for taking advantage of it!¡¯ thought Cassandra. Leonardo was furious. ¡°Do all those who grew,up in the countrysideck manners like you? You''re not going to admit it, are you? I''ll look for witnesses now. With their ounts, | wonder how you''re going to deny it.¡± He looked around and saw a few waiters. ¡°Tell me, have you seen what just happened?¡± He didn¡¯t believe that no one saw the entire happenings when Yulissa fell into the pool. After a while, one of the waitresses came forward and said, ¡°I just saw twodies talking on the terrace. Suddenly, | saw thedy in the ck dress push the otherdy.¡± ¡®Herees the witness!¡± Yulissa leaned on her mother¡¯s shoulder and smiled with triumph. ¡®Cassandra, your reputation will be ruined. Leonardo wore an expression of sudden realization. ¡°Cassandra, what else do you want to say?¡± 3/5 Chapter 46 Cassandra smiled contemptuously. ¡°Did you really see me push her? How did | push? What were our positions at that time? Did | push with one or two hands? How did Yulissa fall?¡± The waitress¡¯ face turned pale, and she panicked, ¡°At that time... This youngdy was... like... two hands.¡± Yulissa¡¯s expression changed when she noticed the turn of events. ¡®Sh it! What if Cassandra gleaned something from her inquiries?¡¯ she thought anxiously. ¡°Mom, I¡¯m feeling dizzy...¡± she said weakly and rubbed her forehead. ¡°Did you really see the happenings clearly?¡± ¡°|... | saw it clearly.¡± Cassandra turned around and said to Lucas and Sylvia, ¡°Mr. Hathaway and Mrs. Hathaway, this might be a good time to end today¡¯s coc ktail party.¡± ¡®It appears that you. all will take my kindness for granted if | allow this to continue,¡¯ she thought. Lucas waved his hand. He didn¡¯t mind it as long as Cassandra was happy with it. ¡°Cassandra, what else do you have to say? The waitress has made her statement. Shouldn¡¯t you be admitting your guilt? You should kneel and beg for Yulissa¡¯s forgiveness.¡± Leonardo felt that only such a punishment could make her learn her lessons. ¡°Rx. Maybe after you know the truth, Yulissa should be the one who kneels and apologizes to me.¡± Cassandra took a recorder from her bag and said, ¡°What a coincidence. | brought it with me to prevent Yulissa from ndering me again.¡± ¡®Isn''t it a pleasant surprise?¡¯ thought Cassandra. Yulissa¡¯s face turned pale instantly! ¡®Dam n it, Cassandra. She recorded everything!¡¯ thought Yulissa. She aimed to sna tch it, but Cassandra adeptly dodged and pressed the y button. ¡°Cassandra, are you upset? Naturally, you would be. Mom, Dad, and the brothers only favor me and not you, after all.¡±This material belongs to N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Do you think | still care?¡± ¡°So, you intentionally arranged a storeroom for me to use as a bedroom upon my 4/5 515 17:36 Mon, 19 Feb G Chapter 46 return.

If you were to push me into the swimming pool, do you think Leo would take you to Desert Ind? That¡¯s a treasure he acquired unexpectedly.¡± ¡°Ah! Cassandra, help me!¡± Cassandra¡¯s recording ended there. At this point, everyone knew exactly what had happened. A SEND GIFT COMMENT Chapter 47 Chapter 47 [So, this is all Yulissa¡¯s self-directed act?] [She risked her life just to drive Cassandra out of the Yates family?] [Everyone, you have to understand that for an imposter to have permanent status, she''ll have to kick out the real one.] [How vicious of her!] [Tsk, tsk... So, this is how the Yates family educates their children. | can¡¯t even find words to describe this.] [I almost fell for that innocent disy. | didn¡¯t expect her to be so evil inside!] Even Benjamin, Leonardo, and Miranda were in disbelief as they looked at Yulissa after hearing the recording. ¡®Did our precious Yulissa actually say that?* Yulissa¡¯s face turned pale, and she sobbed miserably. ¡°Dad, Mom, Leo, you have to believe me. | didn¡¯t say that. | don¡¯t know why Cassandra made this fake recording, but that isn¡¯t me. Please believe me.¡± ¡®I can¡¯t admit it. | can¡¯t! ¡®Arecording can¡¯t prove anything.¡¯ Leonardo wavered. Yulissa had been kind ever since she was a child and had never lied. ¡®Did Cassandra perhaps use her? ¡®Even if she prepared the recording in advance, how could this turn up at such perfect timing?¡¯ Cassandra knew this would happen. Everyone in the Yates family seemed like they were under a spell and always trusted Yulissa unconditionally. Even when the truth was presented right before them, they would not ept it. ¡°How can you prove that your recording is real?¡± Leonardo refused to believe her. This was how the Yates family was. He kept telling her that he was her brother, yet he only trusted Yulissa. 174 12% Chapter 47 He immediately trusted the waiter who said one sentence but refused the truth even when the recording was yed for him. ¡°You are wee to take it for identification at any time.

Well, that¡¯s amazingly all-knowing of me to be able to know everyone¡¯s offers.¡± ¡®It''s not his fault for being stupid, but he is wrong for not realizing his own stupidity ¡°Even if Lisa really did say those things, why did you push her? Didn¡¯t she ask you to save her? Why didn¡¯t you?¡± Leonardopletely disyed his idiocy in public. Kayden shook his head. ¡®How can the Yates family have such an idiotic rtive?¡¯ Indeed, Kayden was considered in the Yates family register, but he was a genuine member of the family. In a more traditional way, Kayden was a direct line of descent from the Yates family. Meanwhile, the others were rtives that had nothing to do with him. They could not even be included in the family registry. Fortunately, the Yates family did not acknowledge these people. Otherwise, it would be so embarrassing. ¡°Mr. Yates, if you refuse to give up, | still have¡¯other evidence. Would you like to see them?¡± ¡°No, don¡¯t!¡± Yulissa hurriedly stopped this. ¡°Cassandra, I¡¯ve forgiven you. | won¡¯t pursue the matter any further. Please don¡¯t do this.¡± ¡®If it¡¯s just a recording, | can still exin myself. If Cassandra brings out anything else, it''ll be the end of me tonight!" ¡°You forgave me and would stop pursuing the matter?¡± Cassandra seemed like she heard a joke and retorted, ¡°But | want to keep talking about it!¡± Cassandra pointed to the corner on the terrace. ¡°See that? There is a hidden miniature surveince camera, so the terrace isn¡¯t a blind spot. There are also surveince cameras keeping watch.

The surveince footage was disyed on the screen. ¡°Mr. Yates, would you like to see? It¡¯s quite interesting.¡± Leonardo felt a little embarrassed. If he still did not understand what was going on by then, he could consider himself growing up in vain. However, he did not expect Yulissa to do such a thing and nder Cassandra at the risk of her own safety. ¡®And it¡¯s all to drive Cassandra away? ¡®How much did she say was the truth about what happened at home for those two months? ¡°Cassandra, it''s all my fault.

Do you think. I¡¯m a pushover?¡± She went to the Yates residence and only took two sets of clothes.

Indeed, she did not check the room or know what environment Cassandra lived in. ¡®| don¡¯t even want to ept her as my daughter, let alone hope to see her!¡± Leonardo''s expression cracked and turned strange. He even seemed a little ashamed. That was because he went into the room to look for Cassandra¡¯s aromatherapy candle but could not find it. Inside the 108-square-foot room were nothing but a bed, a housekeeper¡¯s second-hand wardrobe, a pair of jeans, and a T-shirt, heavily discolored from numerous washing. There was not even a window in the room. It was pitch ck when the door was closed. ¡®So, this was Cassandra''s life in the Yates residence. In the recording, Yulissa said she deliberately expanded her room by taking over the one Leonardo had prepared for Cassandra. Without a room, Cassandra could only live in the storeroom. She could not even stay in the guest room. Back then, Yulissa said she would feel bad if they let Cassandra stay in the guestroom as if they considered her a guest. Yet, she lived in such a ce.

That wasn¡¯t me in the video.¡± Yulissa shook her head desperately as she tried to deny it, but the surveince footage caught her off guard. ¡®I clearly found that the terrace was a blind spot with no surveince cameras, but why are there suddenly surveince cameras? Why would Cassandra know there were surveince cameras?¡¯ ¡°Ms. Yates, you aren¡¯t going to say | edited this, are you? That | knew in advance what kind of dress or style you wore. Then, | had someone use Al to change the face. Or did you think | performed a y here with someone else and asked Mr. Yannick to edit a video without ws within five minutes?¡± Cassandra nned to get to the bottom of this that day. She had nned to ignore this that night, as she did not want to ruin the charity g Lucas held. However, the goody two-shoes kept provoking her endlessly. Sylvia suddenly stepped forward and said angrily, ¡°I thought you were just ying 2/5 17:38 Mon, 19 Feb DGR Chapter 48 tricks topete for favor. | didn¡¯t expect you to be so malicious. | don¡¯t even know how toment on the Yates family¡¯s education!¡± +5 ¡°From today onward, | will refuse all invitations to any events as long as the Yates family is involved. | will cklist the Yates family from now on,¡± Sylvia dered. Benjamin¡¯s face turned pale, and he quickly tried to please her, saying, ¡°Mrs. Hathaway, this is all a misunderstanding. Please forgive us for this petty mistake.¡± Being cklisted by Sylvia meant the Yates family could not get involved with the government andpete for government projects. This was equivalent to breaking one of the Yates family¡¯s livelihood paths. ¡°Lisa,e over here and apologize to Mrs. Hathaway!¡± Yulissa almost lost her footing as her body swayed slightly. ¡®What? Dad is asking me to apologize? Is he disappointed in me? No, this can¡¯t be!¡¯ Yulissa timidly walked toward Sylvia and apologized, ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Mrs. Hathaway. I¡ª¡± ¡°I''m not the person you should be apologizing to. You should know better than anyone who that person is.¡± Yulissa looked up at Sylvia in disbelief. ¡®Is she asking me to apologize to Cassandra? Impossible!¡¯ ¡°Lisa, apologize!¡± Benjamin¡¯s strict voice was hard for Yulissa to ept. Yet, now that things had reached this point, she could not refuse to bow down. ¡®Don¡¯t think you¡¯ve won, Cassandra. As long as I¡¯m in the Yates family, you''ll always be the outsider.¡¯ ¡°I''m sorry, Cassandra. It¡¯s all my fault. You can punish me however you want, and I''ll ept it!¡± Yulissa lowered her head as she apologized with a choked voice. ¡°| can do whatever | want?¡± Cassandra smirked and asked contemptuously. ¡°Yes. | won¡¯tin, even if you want to hit me.¡± Yulissa looked like she was ready to die, as if it was for the sake of the Yates family. Cassandra stared at her for two seconds. ¡®Since she made such a request, | won''t hold back.¡¯ 3/5 Chapter 48 Cassandra slowly raised her hand. Just as everyone thought she would p Yulissa, a sudden turn of events happened. Thud! ¡°Ah!¡± Someone fell into the water. ¡®Everyone was shocked, as they did not expect Cassandra to push Yulissa into the pool. When everyone looked over, Yulissa swam to the poolside as fast as she could and climbed out. Leonardo was about to question Cassandra when she spoke first. ¡°Since she used that | pushed her into the pool, | shall turn it into the truth. Otherwise, you might be quite troubled without evidence.¡± ¡°You...¡± ¡°Mr. Yates, look. Your sister, Yulissa, swims so well. While you stood by the poolside, she had already gotten out of the pool before you could react. What happened just now? Was she sshing around in the pool for so long while waiting for you toe out of the banquet hall?¡± ¡®How puzzling!¡¯ Cassandra¡¯s voice made Yulissa freeze at the poolside. She was about to so b when Cassandra stopped her. However, Miranda still defended Yulissa, ¡°Maybe she didn¡¯t have time to react just now.¡± ¡°You''re right, Mrs. Yates. You have a point.¡± Cassandra finally got revenge, but this meant nothing. After all, it was more meaningful to defeat others in their proudest areas. ¡°The farce ends now! Jeremiah, send me back.¡± ¡°Got it!¡± Keh¡¯s eyes were burning with jealousy and madness. ¡®Why did Cassie ask Jeremiah to send her back? What''s their rtionship?¡¯ 4/5 17:38 Mon, 19 Feb Chapter 48 5/5 SEND GIFT COMMENT 17:38 Mon, 19 Feb J Chapter 49 Chapter 49 Benjamin, with his family, almost fled with their tails between their legs. They were thoroughly humiliated that day. They did not know how they were supposed to continue staying in that circle after what happened. At home, Yulissa cried miserably as she apologized, ¡°Dad, Mom, please punish me. | didn¡¯t mean to do it. Cassandra crossed the line, so | wanted to take revenge for Ray!¡± Yulissa¡¯s sobs attracted Raymond. ¡®For me? What did she mean by that?¡¯ He went downstairs and saw Yulissa crying her eyes out, so he hurriedlyforted her, ¡°Don¡¯t cry, Lisa. What''s the matter? Tell me.¡± Benjamin and Leonardo were annoyed by her cries. Leonardo could not understand why a girl liked crying so much. At least, he had never seen Cassandra shed a tear before when he was with her. Yulissa bawled as she exined the situation. Although it was the truth, she added the excuse of doing it for Cassandra and Raymond''s sake. Benjamin¡¯s expression eased slightly. Miranda hugged her pitifully. Yulissa¡¯s thoughtfulness broke her heart. ¡®That brat Cassandra only knows how to make trouble for us!¡¯ However, Raymond could not stay calm after hearing this. ¡°Who is she to sell the medicine to others? When we asked her to find the miracle doctor back then, she refused. She had the medicine but didn¡¯t give it to me. I¡¯m her brother! Is she asking to be taught a lesson?¡± Raymond fumed, ¡®That brat had the medicine to cure me but didn¡¯t give it to me! If | don¡¯t teach her a lesson, | am bound for heaven!¡¯ Leonardo was shocked by Raymond''s attitude. ¡®Even he thinks so? No, | agree with him as well. Leonardo also thought Cassandra¡¯s things belonged to the Yates family. ¡°Cassandra, that ungrateful brat! Ray, go to her and let her invite the miracle doctor to treat you. Either that or ask her to give you the medicine.¡± 115 72% Chapter 49 Miranda spoke smugly. ¡®Cutting ties with the Yates family? She doesn¡¯t know her ce!¡¯ ¡°Mom, Cassandra has severed her ties with us. What right do we have to demand something from her?¡± Leonardo could not help but blurt out. He did not know what he was thinking right now. * However, he knew regret was slowly spreading within him. ¡°What do you mean she severed her ties with us? She¡¯s my daughter. Her stuff is mine too!¡± ¡®| carried her for ten months and gave birth to her. Isn¡¯t it natural for her to repay us?¡¯ Miranda pondered indignantly. ¡°If | remember correctly, she had repaid you at Lisa¡¯s 18th birthday celebration. Two months after the reunion, she still wasn¡¯t admitted by you as a family and even lived in a storeroom. Mom, go inside and see for yourself whether that ce is livable. The cats Lisa raised lived in a better ce than that.¡± Leonardo felt quite depressed. Back then, he felt Miranda was the most reasonable person.This material belongs to N?velDrama.Org. She gave birth to six sons and a daughter, all of whom were excellent. Yet, Miranda did not disy the same affection for Cassandra for some reason. She only had hatred and contempt toward Cassandra. Benjamin did not dare think further. He could not bear to stay in this house any longer tonight. Hence, he walked away. Behind him, Miranda kept calling him, yet he ignored her. ¡°Mom, does Leo hate me now? | was wrong. | really, truly know it¡¯s my fault. | didn¡¯t mean it. I''ll apologize to Cassandra and Leo, okay?¡± Yulissa admitted she was panicking. Yulissa thought frantically, Leo is of high status. If he stopped caring about me, what should | do? | have no confidence the other five brothers will listen to me either. Therefore, she needed tofort Benjamin and Miranda. She had to deal with them before thinking about her next ns. 2/5 72% Chapter 49 ¡°Don''t cry, Lisa. Leo is ignorant. When hees back tomorrow, I''ll scold him for you.¡± Heartbroken, Miranda held Yulissa in her arms andforted thetter. Good news would always go on crutches, while bad news traveled fast. The next day, everyone in their circle knew about the Yates family¡¯s shameful acts and that wolf in sheep¡¯s clothing, the imposter. Benjamin was woken up by a series of noisy phone ringtones early in the morning. ¡°What did you say? Say it again!¡± Benjamin was so shocked he lost all trace of drowsiness. After he hung up the call, he quickly dressed himself. He had to rush to thepany. ¡°What''s going on?¡± Miranda asked sleepily. ¡°Yates Group¡¯s stock almost plummeted to nothing, and you still have time to sleep!¡± Not to mention, many business partners canceled their contracts with them. The loss was worth almost billions of dors. Keh was behind all of this. He could make the Yates family disappear within a day. However, their hatred would only grow deeper if retribution came swiftly. Hatred was not despair. Only when they suffer through a long process would they realize their own mistakes. This was the best feeling for Keh. They needed to pay and repent. Miranda was also taken aback. ¡°How could this happen?¡± ¡°The incident yesterday had spread around!¡± At this time, the news also broke out on the inte. Is that Frederick¡¯s sister?

How disgusting!] [And here | thought she was kind. How ¡®kind¡¯ of her, | suppose!] Theizens discussed the topic enthusiastically. Some of Frederick¡¯s fans even tagged him. As a result, his cell phone kept ringing. The manager took his phone out to check what was happening, and his expression grew darker the more he read. He thought, | knew it! That daughter of the Yates family isn¡¯t a good person! How vicious of her!¡¯ ¡°Frederick, your phone keeps ringing.¡± ¡®He should see for himself what his sister is like. Otherwise, he would always think everyone is bad-mouthing his sister. Isn''t this obvious enough?¡± Frederick picked up his phone and checked the situation. Then, his expression grew darker. ¡®I can¡¯t believe my fans are criticizing Yulissa! What fools!¡± He immediately posted: [Yulissa is the best sister in the world. | don¡¯t ept the rumors. Those who criticized her should wait to be summoned to court.] His manager, Caven Arden, almost went mad with anger. Caven wondered, ¡®Does he not see the truth?

Aren¡¯t you afraid your fans wille after 4/5 38 Mon, 19 Feb Chapter 49 you for posting this?¡± ¡°| don¡¯t need to see to know Cassandra set Lisa up.¡± Frederick thought, ¡®My sister would never do something like this!¡¯ ¡°You''re hopeless! | want to manage another artist.¡± ¡®| refuse to work with brainless celebrities. It''s insulting to me!¡¯ Caven fumed inwardly. After reading Frederick¡¯s tweet, everyone changed the way they view Frederick. However, thetter did not seem to realize his mistake. Frederick thought, ¡®It''s because they don¡¯t understand Lisa. She wouldn¡¯t do such a thing!¡¯ 5/5 Chapter 50 Chapter 50 Frederick did not care what his manager said. He knew what kind of person Yulissa was best. Thements on the Inte were definitely not true, and he had to rify for his sister. He used his previous judgment to determine Yulissa and Cassandra¡¯s characters, but little did he know that he had already messed up. The tweet that he posted defending Yulissa was immediately a trending topic. Netizen A: [I¡¯m speechless. | didn¡¯t expect | would be a fan of someone who can¡¯t distinguish between good and bad! I¡¯m no longer a fan!] Netizen B: [I¡¯ve always thought that celebrities don¡¯t need academic qualifications, but at least they have to distinguish right from wrong. Obviously, Frederick didn¡¯t!] Netizen C: [The entire family seems to have been bewitched by Yulissa. How disgusting!] Netizen D: [I think you¡¯re all just jealous that Lisa has a brother who loves her. Fred, we support you!] Netizen E: [Fred is always right. Our fans will believe everything he says! Don¡¯t cause trouble here, haters.] Netizen F: [An adult shouldn¡¯t make such remarks if he knows the truth. What an idiot!] Netizen G: [It¡¯s bad luck to get involved with the Yates family. I¡¯m speechless!] Frederick was at Marvellous Entertainment but in the CEO¡¯s Office of thepany. ¡°Mr. Lancey, | wish to be assigned another artist. You can assign Frederick to whoever you want!¡± Caven said bluntly. He hated artists who had no values and could not distinguish right from wrong. Yet, Frederick was one of them. Caven thought, ¡®He posted a rification statement before he even understood the sequence of events of this matter. | can¡¯t be in charge of an artist who doesn¡¯t care about his reputation or thepany!" ¡°What happened?¡± the CEO, Andrew Lancey, asked. Caven rted the entire sequence of events to Andrew. Thetter''s expression darkened. ¡®He¡¯s so disregardful of the overall situation?¡¯ Andrew thought. 1/4 17:38 Mon, 19 Feb DGK Chapter 50 ¡°Caven, don¡¯t worry. Frederick is the key talent that ourpany is fostering. Since something like this happened, you must do a good job in public rtions for him.¡± Andrew thought, ¡®An artist could be stupid, but he had to have a manager. Otherwise, | wouldn¡¯t have paired Frederick with Caven as his manager. He managed three best. actors, two best actresses, and one top singer, which shows his ability. Besides, under his management, Frederick has not had any scandals, but his poprity has been unprecedented, proving Caven¡¯s capability. Frederick is a scion. If | can seize this cash cow, there¡¯s nothing too hard to ovee!¡¯ ¡°If you don¡¯t assign me a different artist, | can resign!¡± Caven was truly furious. He had met Yulissa. She had hinted to him several times, openly and subtly, hoping to use Frederick¡¯s fame to make her debut. Considering she was Frederick¡¯s sister, he merely thought that she wanted to gain poprity, so he did not care much about it and helped her build an image. Once she became famous, everyone also called her the ¡°Nation¡¯s Beloved.¡± However, as the days passed, she became more dissatisfied and bossed him around like an underling, which frustrated him. Previously, he bore with it because he was overseeing Frederick¡¯s career, and she was Frederick''s sister. In the end, just avoid intervening when the inevitable happened. However, this time, he was not blind and had values. He could distinguish what the truth was. He could tell at a nce whether the surveince videos and recordings were genuine and whether they had been tampered with. However, since Frederick buried his head in the sand and insisted on what he believed, there was no need for him to be the manager of such a person. Caven thought, ¡®Even better. | can be free of his sister. In Marvellous Entertainment''s CEO¡¯s Office, Andrew used up all the ttering words and finally appeased Caven, but he forgot to ask his assistant to confiscate Frederick¡¯s phone. A post appeared on Twitter. 4 Frederick tweeted: [Don¡¯t spew nonsense if you don¡¯t know Lisa. Cassandra bullies her at home every day and she hasn''t comined about it. This recording can¡¯t prove 2/4 17:39 Mon, 19 Feb DC Chapter 50 anything!] E +5 Frederick then tweeted: [Those who call Lisa vicious, do you know anything about her? Do you know how kind she is? Just wait for the court summons!] This went on for a while. A famous celebrity quarreled withizens on Twitter over his goody two-shoes sister. After watching it, Andrew¡¯s blood pressure soared. He made a phone call, saying, ¡°Frederick, don¡¯t drag thepany down with you if you intend to lose it!¡± The members of the Yates Group were also anxiously pacing around. Benjamin held an emergency board meeting to give the board of directors some exnation. ¡°Mr. Yates, is your daughter really what they say on the Inte?¡± ¡°Mr. Yates, you have to give us an exnation. We can¡¯t lose our money because of your family trouble!¡± ¡°Mr. Yates, are you still going to keep silent?¡± Benjamin¡¯s head almost exploded from themotion in the office. Leonardo sat aside and said nothing, not wanting to interfere in the matter. The incident online was an indisputable fact. He thought about it a lotst night. When Cassandra returned, he felt that since she was his biological sister, he could not mistreat her. Hence, he treated her equally, and prepared a room and clothes for her. Butter, Yulissa often said that Cassandra bullied her and wanted to drive her away. She became paranoid and afraid every day. To appease Yulissa, he became more and more indifferent to Cassandra, even to the point of hating her. However, it turned out that he was wrong. She did and said nothing. Yet, everything somehow became her fault. Even though she had been wronged a lot, she still made him a perfume. He was certain it was her creation because he ¡®could not find the scent on the market. He even found 3/4 17:39 Mon, 19 Fe Chapter 50 many perfumers through his connections, but they could not name it. Hence, it could only be her creation. ¡°Leo, how should we deal with this?¡± Benjamin asked. ¡°Get Yulissa to apologize publicly!¡± Leonardo replied. ¡°Yes. Get her to apologize. She must give an exnation. And you need to find a way to get Cassandra¡¯s forgiveness!¡±This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org. ¡°| agree. Otherwise, there¡¯s no way to get past this. The stocks will keep falling, and when the timees, Yates Group¡¯s shares will be worthless!¡± ¡°| also agree to get Ms. Yates to apologize!¡± ¡°| second that.¡± ¡°Same here!¡± Benjamin did not expect his son to give him such a solution. ¡®Doesn¡¯t he know that this will ruin Yulissa?* he thought. However, he was unaware that Leonardo no longer regarded Yulissa as his sister at that moment. The directors were fervently discussing what to do when suddenly, a voice sounded. ¡°Mr. Yates, your good son is going to destroy Yates Group! Will your Yates Family be content only after causing us to lose all of our money?¡± Benjamin was confused by the sudden outburst. ¡°Mr. Hayes, what happened?¡± ¡°Take a good look at what your superstar, son has posted!¡± Alexander Hayes thought, ¡°The members of the Yates family are so stupid! What kind of adopted daughter is she to have them defend her like lunatics?¡¯ Leonardo raised his eyebrows. He had a feeling that nothing good had happened. 474 SEND SEND GIFT GIFT COMMENT Chapter 51 Chapter 51 Meanwhile, in the ssroom on Monday, everyone was gossiping fervently about it. After all, they had seen what happened online yesterday. However, they did not expect Yulissa to be such a person behind the scenes. ¡°Did you read yesterday''s tweet? | was really shocked. | didn¡¯t expect Yulissa to be such a person.¡± ¡°Yes, I¡¯ve seen it. My worldview is almost shattered to pieces. | didn¡¯t expect Yulissa to be the adopted daughter. Before this, she had always imed herself to be the biological child and Cassandra was the adopted one. The plot twist is super incredible.¡± ¡°It was only exposed at her 18th birthday celebration, but at that time, only those who attended the event knew. Nevertheless, the Yates family couldn¡¯t resist their fondness for her!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t you find it terrifying that given her status, how could Cassandra bully her at home? She even came crying to us. We then bullied Cassandra, causing us to have a criminal record.¡± It was better not to mention that. Once it was brought up, many people became uneasy or restless. Yulissa, who was standing by the door, also heard their discussion. Her face was pale and filled with grievances, as if she were a victim. Noticing her entering the room, everyone dispersed one after another. At first, Yulissa didn¡¯t intend toe to school today, butst week¡¯s test results were to be announced that day. She wanted to use her capability to shut everyone up. Her bet with Cassandra was not over yet. This time, she wanted to add another bet before the results were announced. With that in mind, she went up to Cassandra and addressed her in a low voice, ¡°Cassandra.¡± Yulissa then added, ¡°Cassandra, the test results will be out soon. | wonder if you still remember our bet.¡± ¡°What? Are you in a hurry to die?¡± Yulissa¡¯s expression was terribly unpleasant. Cassandra was indeed arrogant and 115 17:39 Mon, 19 Feb DER Chapter 51 conceited. E ¡®How can a country bumpkin do well in the exams? Such wishful thinking! Yulissa mocked inwardly. ¡°What happened online has already urred, Cassandra., | hope that after the test results are out and | win our bet, you can help me clear things up.¡± Yesterday, Benjamin and Leonardo didn¡¯t return home. Even so, Frederick made a phone call to her, while her other siblings were at home. Although some people tried tofort her, Yulissa still felt a sense of estrangement between her and them. That morning, her ssmates¡¯ gaze almost shattered her psychological defense. She couldn''t bear seeing such gazes. ¡®I''m clearly the one who¡¯s being fawned upon by others. How could they do this to me?¡¯ ¡°Isn''t it the truth? What do you want to rify about?¡± Cassandra wondered if Yulissa was living in her own world. She felt as if Yulissa was a frog in the well, assuming that she was the center of the universe and that everything revolved around her. ¡°How about this? If | win, in addition to the original agreement, you will include a rification stating that the person in the video isn''t me. Dad¡¯spany has suffered a severe blow. Is that what you want to see?¡± It was indeed what Cassandra intended to see. ¡°If | don¡¯t intend to see you disappearing slowly, should | watch you guys thrive instead?¡± ¡°Cassandra, how did you be like this?¡± Yulissa seemed distressed and concerned. Was this kind of provocation entertaining to her?. ¡°Yulissa, there¡¯s no need to pretend like this in front of me. I¡¯m not one of your blind brothers who would fall for your act.¡± Cassandra had never seen someone so shameless like her. ¡°Cassandra, are you afraid that you will lose to me?¡± ¡®Cassandra seems reluctant to agree. Could it be she¡¯s afraid?* At the thought of such a possibility, Yulissa became even more confident. 2/5 17:39 Mon, 19 Feb Chapter 51 ¡°Then I''ll let you put your mind at ease. If | lose, I''ll do as you said. But if | win, I''ll add another condition too. I¡¯m going to publicly disclose on the Inte what kind of person you are, and what you''ve done to me in the Yates family!¡± Since Yulissa wanted to y games with her, Cassandra decided to raise the stakes instead. However, only Cassandra knew that the Yates family were all blockheads. It was impossible to knock some sense into them and make them feel regretful through this matter. After letting them know of the truth, she would shatter their pride bit by bit, just like how they hadnded punch after punch on her body in her past life. If it was merely death, that would be letting them off too easily, as death was a kind of mercy they did not deserve at all. They could only be tormented to death in remorse. Yulissa was stunned. She didn¡¯t expect Cassandra to be so cruel and harbor such malice here.This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org. ¡®She¡¯s simply too vicious!¡® Yulissa cursed inwardly. However, she was confident that she could make it to the top five of the whole grade. In contrast, with Cassandra¡¯s terrible grades, even with a lot of effort, she wouldn''t be able to catch up to Yulissa. ¡°Sure. | hope you can keep your word!¡± After they came to an agreement, all they had to do now was wait for the results to come out. During lunch break, Raymond came over to look for Cassandra. This was because he had found out that he couldn¡¯t locate where Cassandra lived. Even by using his connections, Raymond still couldn¡¯t find Cassandra¡¯s address. Thus, he had no choice but toe to school to look for her. ¡°Cassandra, stop right there!¡± When finally he spotted her, he shouted out loudly to her. However, Cassandra ignored him and continued walking ahead. Since Hugo had brought her lunch, she had to collect it at the school gate. Raymond quickened his pace and walked in front of Cassandra, extending his left arm to block her path. 3/5 17:39 Mon 19 Feb Chapter 31 Her gaze turned cold as she said. ¡°Raymond, you can keep blocking if you don¡¯t want this arm anymore.¡± 0 ¡°Cassandra, are you even human? You auctioned off the medicine, knowing full well that my hand was injured. How despicable can you be? You care for nothing but money, don¡¯t you?* Cassandra was unexpectedly scolded by him. After that, she retorted to him faintly. It turned out that it was about the Restorative Pill. ¡°Raymond, if you have a mental problem, go get it treated. Which psychiatric hospital let you out? The medicine is mine, and | can handle it however | want. It¡¯s none of your business!* She then added, ¡°Besides, it was a public auction. Did | stop the Yates family from bidding for it? You could''ve bid for the medicine. Don¡¯t you know the rules of an auction? The highest bidder gets the item. The Yates family has a worth of around 20 billion dors, can¡¯t they even spare 1.76 billion dors to buy the medicine for you? Seems that you''re not that significant in the Yates family!¡± Raymond''s expression darkened. This was also the most embarrassing point in his heart. He knew that Cassandra had the freedom to auction off the medicine. However, he didn¡¯t expect that his own parents and brothers did not purchase the medicine. They knew clearly that he needed it, and how devastating it was for him to have his hand crippled. And yet, they did nothing! Yulissa had told him that Cassandra had deliberately taken out the medicine just to provoke him. He believed her words, so he could only shift the resentment in his heart toward his parents onto Cassandra instead. ¡°Besides, don¡¯t try to guilt-trip me with your ridiculous sense of family rtionship. I¡¯m not part of the Yates family, and | have no connections to them at all. Whatever debts | owed the Yates family, I¡¯ve repaid them. If you keep provoking me, don¡¯t me me for being rude to you!¡± Raymond''s temper red up as well. ¡°I''d like to see what you n to do. You evil brat!

However, Cassandra¡¯s eyes were calm and honest. ¡®It''s impossible. Mom and Jace wouldn¡¯t do that to me. She must be lying!¡± he thought. ¡°Do you think | will believe you?¡± Cassandra shrugged and said, ¡°Believe it or not, you can ask the doctor who admitted you that night. He was probably pissed off with Jace.¡± Cassandra was about to leave. Hugo was still waiting for her outside. Raymond hurriedly grabbed Cassandra and said, ¡°Speak clearly!¡± ¡°Ah!¡± he screamed in pain as Cassandra broke his only intact left arm. ¡°Cassandra, you bitch! Let go of me!¡± Raymond''s screams drew the attention of the students about to go for meals. ¡°If you can¡¯t put your arms where they should be, | don¡¯t mind helping you!¡± He kept going there to cause trouble for her.

What''s the use?¡± ¡°The doctor could have saved your arm, but Mom is so self-righteous that she thinks Jace is a miracle doctor who can cure you even with a dy. And now, you can only bear 4/4 Chapter 52 the consequences yourself. Look, do they feel guilty?¡± +5 ¡°Mom only cares about taking Yulissa to socialize and have fun. She can take care of her mood, but she won¡¯t take care of you. You are their youngest son. They won''t spend 1.76 billion dors on medicine or 4 billion dors on a miracle doctor for you. How pathetic you are!¡± Cassandra¡¯s tone was full of ridicule and contempt. After Raymond heard her words, his face turned pale, and he stepped back.This material belongs to N?velDrama.Org. Meanwhile, Yulissa came out and happened to see that scene. ¡°Ray, what¡¯s wrong with you? Are you all right?¡± She quickly supported Raymond. ¡°Well, don¡¯t touch his arm. If he is injured again, he will really be disabled,¡± Cassandra reminded sarcastically. However, Yulissa didn¡¯t believe her and grabbed Raymond¡¯s hanging left arm directly. ¡°Ah!¡± Raymond fainted from the pain. Before he fainted, he only thought, ¡®My arm is really disabled. My dream... Cassandra watched all that and snorted coldly. Then, she turned around and went to the school gate to get her lunch. She thought, ¡®What is that called? A wicked person will be harassed by another of like ilk. Even if | don¡¯t punish him, someone else will! His arms were destroyed by the people closest to him! His expression must be interesting when he wakes up. What a pity! | won''t get to see it.¡± In the afternoon, Yulissa asked for leave. Because Raymond fainted on campus, she sent him to the hospital. At that moment, she couldn¡¯t leave. She had made Benjamin and Leonardo angry and could anger Raymond even more. When Miranda and Jasper came, Raymond¡¯s broken arm had been connected. However, due to a second injury, the bone was broken and inserted into the flesh. It took the doctor a lot of effort to realign the bones and fit the ster cast. From then on, Raymond wouldn''t be able to move his left arm for at least three months. When Raymond woke up, they were all there. Yulissa pretended to me herself, saying, ¡°Ray, I¡¯m sorry. It was all my fault. If it wasn¡¯t for Cassandra''s hatred of me...¡± ¡°Shut up!¡± Raymond shouted. He didn¡¯t want to hear it. 2/4 3 Chapter 52 ¡°Ray...¡± Yulissa thought. What¡¯s going on? Why did Ray treat me like that? Did Cassandra say something to him?¡± Raymond looked at Miranda and Jasper with mockery in his heart. He subconsciously felt that Cassandra was telling the truth because he knew how proud Jasper and Miranda were. ¡°Jace. | want to ask you why | would miss the best treatment timing when my right , arm¡¯s injury was not serious at that time?¡± Jasper was stunned, with panic in his eyes. When Raymond looked at Miranda, he also noticed her eyes were evasive. Raymond thought. ¡®Heh... It seems to be true. Because of their self-righteousness, my arm missed the best time for treatment. Now, my left arm was also broken because of a second injury caused by Yulissa. I¡¯m a useless person now! What an irony!" ¡°When you asked the doctor to wait, have you ever considered that | couldn¡¯t wait? Why can¡¯t you buy 100 pills or the medicines sold at a public auction? After all, you were unwilling to spend the money, weren¡¯t you?¡± ¡°You are willing to buy something worth 200 million dors for Yulissa, but you won¡¯t buy me medicine. It is my arm. If | am not treated, it will be wasted forever. Have you ever considered that?¡± Only then did Raymond realize that it was not the most despairing thing to lose his arm but to have it destroyed at the hands of his family. ¡°Ray, did Cassandra tell you something? You have to believe us. We won''t harm you...¡± Yulissa quickly exined and med Cassandra for Raymond''s abnormality. Raymond looked at her sternly and said, ¡°And you! When you helped me, Cassandra reminded you not to touch my arm, or it will be injured again. Why did you pull my arm? Are you guys trying to ruin me?¡± At the age of 20 years old, it was the time when a.man was young and vigorous. However, his right arm was disabled, and his left arm could not move for three months. He would have problems eating, sleeping, and bathing. He eximed inwardly, ¡®Why did they do this to me? Why? ¡°Have a good rest. We''ll talk about it when you calm down!¡± Miranda directly chose to avoid the problem. Instead of asking Yulissa what happened, she grabbed her to leave. Raymond looked at their leaving figures. It was ironic that those were his family. They were not evenparable to Cassandra, who had risked her life to save him. 3/4 17:39 Mon, 19 Feb G Chapter 52 The next day, Yulissa went to the ssroom with a haggard look. E ¡°Since some students asked for leave yesterday, the results will be announced today!¡± Yulissa couldn''t help but straighten her back when she heard that the results were about to be announced. She would definitely win. She would use her strength to restore her reputation and. make Cassandra apologize to her. ¡°The result this time is beyond my expectations, especially for the first ce. I''ll announce the top ten scores in our ss first.¡± After announcing the sixth to tenth ces, the teacher continued with the top five. ¡°The fifth ce is Zachary Linhart, with a total score of 1404 points.¡± ¡°The fourth ce is J Xenos, with a total score of 1417 points.¡± ¡°The third ce, Yulissa Yates, scores 1431 points, ranked sixth in the grade.¡± ¡°The second ce, Samuel Grayson, has a total score of 1489 points. He is also the second in our grade.¡± ¡°The first ce in our ss, who is also ranked first in the grade, is someone | didn¡¯t expect. Cassandra Yates. 1564 points.¡± 4l4 Chapter 53 Chapter 53 Cassandra¡¯s achievements caused a stir in the ss. ¡°1564 points! Such a high score!¡® everyone eximed inwardly. The highest score of Samuel, who had ranked first in the whole grade, was only 1519 points, while Cassandra easily scored 1564 points without answering many questions. When the results were announced, Samuel turned around in surprise. He hadn¡¯t expected Cassandra to keep her own counsel. With 1564 points, she had probably scored full marks for all four basic sciences. That was an unparalleled result. When Yulissa heard Cassandra score 1564 points, she couldn¡¯t stand it. She suddenly stood up and said to Connor, ¡°It¡¯s impossible. Cassandra is a country bumpkin with low education. How could she get 1564 points? She must have cheated!¡± She thought, ¡®That''s right! It must be cheating! She must have cheated because she was afraid of losing to me! That must be the case!"This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org. ¡°Yulissa, please sit down!¡± Connor turned his attention from Yulissa to the ss, saying, ¡°I know you have doubts about Cassandra¡¯s paper. So do the teachers. Therefore, we¡¯ve checked all the surveince cameras and found no signs of cheating on Cassandra. Besides, Cassandra¡¯s problem-solving is different from everyone else¡¯s. It¡¯s not even the standard answer!¡± ¡®She is just too low-key! Despite being so outstanding, she has remained unknown, he thought. ¡°It''s impossible. How could she get such a high score?¡± Yulissa kept mumbling. She couldn''t believe it. In that way, Cassandra was 133 points higher than her, twice as high as the score she had promised. ¡®It¡¯s impossible. Absolutely impossible! she thought. Yulissa stood up and said indignantly, ¡°Mr. Zeller, | want to report Cassandra for cheating. You must give us an exnation!¡± She requested Connor to give an exnation and punish the cheater. Without waiting for Connor to speak, Cassandra stood up and said, ¡°Yulissa, are you deliberately dying the time because you lost the bet? | didn¡¯t cheat. | believe the school has investigated clearly. Are you questioning the teachers and the school?¡± ¡°I''m just doubting you. You have only attended junior high school for a few days. How can you learn the knowledge of high school and get such a high score?¡± 17:39 Mon, 19 Feb Chapter 53 Yulissa thought her suspicion was reasonable and legal. Anyway, she would not admit defeat. ¡°Okay, then I''ll convince you!¡± Cassandra nced around at her ssmates who were watching the show. It was ironic yet interesting that some of them never learned their lessons. ¡°| believe most families have participated in the charity g on Saturday. You guys should know about my identity as ine.¡± Yulissa¡¯s face froze. +5 Indeed, Cassandra was ine. Her fame and prestige were beyond the reach of anyone. It was rumored that ine had obtained master¡¯s and doctorate degrees from more than a dozen world-renowned schools. In addition to fashion design, some schools even offered her an annual sry of around 2 million dors to teach once a month, but she declined them all. The more Yulissa thought about it, the paler her face turned. Somebody said, ¡°Oh, yeah. When my dad came home that day and said Cassandra was ine, | was stunned. Mrs. Hathaway has acknowledged it. There should be no mistake!¡± Another chimed in, ¡°It¡¯s said that ine has received many doctorate degrees. Then why is she attending high school?¡± Cassandra heard that and said, ¡°Because Yulissa¡¯s good father felt sorry for her, he sent me to school to apany her. It¡¯s only for a month anyway. | don¡¯t want to quit halfway. It¡¯s not a bad idea to take the SAT. After all, | have never experienced it!¡± Her ssmates thought, ¡®Is she showing off? That¡¯s true. She is only 18 years old now. How could she have gotten so many degree certificates if she had taken the SAT? Yulissa¡¯s body went weak, and she almost fell to the floor. ¡°Yulissa, you lost the bet. It¡¯s time for you to fulfill it. You have to persist.¡± Cassandra looked at Connor and said, ¡°Mr. Zeller, you won''t be biased or make an exception, right?¡± That would mean that Yulissa had to fulfill the terms of their bet and finish running theps that day, no matter what happened. ¡°| won''t ept it! You got the result by cheating. Why should | admit defeat?¡± ¡°So, Yulissa, whose paper can | copy? The second ce in the grade sat in front of you. 2/4 70% Chapter 53 My score is over 70 points higher than him. | was at thest exam venue. Tell me, whose paper did | copy?¡± Yulissa couldn¡¯t answer Cassandra¡¯s question. She thought, ¡®I can¡¯t lose. No! If | fulfill the bet, my reputation will be ruined! Cassandra is so mean!¡± oo ¡°What''s your bet?¡± Connor asked. The ssmate in front of Cassandra stood up and said, ¡°Mr. Zeller, it was Yulissa who wanted to make a bet with Cassandra. Whoever achieves the better result this time will win the bet and set the conditions!¡± Those videos on the weekend had let her see Yulissa¡¯s true colors. She would not take the side of the evildoers. ¡°Then, let''s do it. | will keep my word!¡± Hearing that, Cassandra smiled lightly. She thought Yulissa was going to get Edward to take Connor away. Seeing that Yulissa didn¡¯t move, she could only walk up to her out ofpassion. ¡°Let''s go, Yulissa. It¡¯s time to fulfill your bet!¡± Cassandra suddenly grabbed Yulissa¡¯s hair with one hand and went to the podium to take the homeroom teacher''s wireless microphone before walking toward the ssroom door. ¡°Cassandra, let me go! Ah! It hurts! Cassandra, let me tell you, it¡¯s useless, whatever you do. As long as | am here, you will never be the daughter of the Yates family! Ah! Let go, Cassandra!¡± Along the way, more and more students gathered to watch the show. ¡°Yulissa, ording to the final test results, you lost. ording to the agreement, | win if my score is 60 points higher than yours. Now, my score is 133 points higher. If you want to cheat or don¡¯t want to fulfill the bet, don¡¯t me me!¡± ¡®You provoked me again and again, and | ignored it. Since you want to push your luck, then we''ll see!¡¯ she thought. ¡°| didn¡¯t lose. You cheated!¡± Yulissa¡¯s voice could barely be heard on the field outdoors while Cassandra spoke through the microphone effortlessly. Cassandra didn¡¯t mind spending another minute with her. ¡°I''ll give you five seconds. If you don¡¯t start running, | will break your legs myself. If you can¡¯t run, I¡¯ll make you a 3/4 Mon, 19 Feb Chapter 53 cripple!¡± D 70% # ¡°Cassandra, how dare you! Dad, Mom, and all our brothers won''t let you off!¡± Yulissa was a little scared because Cassandra was nothing like before. ¡®Where is that cautious Cassandra before? This is not her at all!¡® she thought. ¡°You can try and see whether | dare. Have you forgotten that | broke Ray¡¯s arm yesterday?¡± Cassandra kindly reminded. Yulissa recalled what the doctor had said to Raymond the previous day. ¡®My hands...¡® she thought. ¡°OK! I''ll run!¡± Cassandra said with a satisfied expression, ¡°Remember to run for tenps and shout ¡®Yulissa is an idiot¡¯ 200 times. If there is one timeless, it won¡¯t count! Run first. You still have other terms to fulfillter!¡± 4l4 Chapter 54 Chapter 54 With a gazeden with poison, Yulissa red at Cassandra. Yulissa swore inwardly, ¡®Cassandra! | swear! We cannot coexist! It¡¯s either you or me who lives!" ¡°If anyone dares to record videos of this, | will ask my brother to send you all to Desert Ind!¡± Yulissa warned before she left hurriedly. She wanted her brother to hack into the school¡¯s surveince cameras. These scandals must not be leaked out! ¡°I''m... an idiot!¡± shouted Yulissa repeatedly, feeling extremely humiliated. As she yelled, she cried. And then she swore that Cassandra had to pay back the humiliation she suffered today! Meanwhile, Cassandra just watched calmly. She sneered inwardly, ¡®Is that all you can take? Too bad. There¡¯s more toe. These- punishments are too light. I''ll make you pay for the stab in my previous life and the torture caused by those fools at your instigation. Just you wait and see. On the other side, Yulissa stubbornly fought Cassandra to the end. Yulissa forced herself to finish the tenps, shouting ¡°I¡¯m an idiot¡± countless times. All she knew was that she would never be satisfied if Cassandra didn¡¯t die. Then, she copsed on the ground and couldn¡¯t move. Cassandra walked leisurely to her. In Yulissa¡¯s eyes, Cassandra was unting her victory. But she didn¡¯t expect that Cassandra¡¯s following sentence would make her break down. ¡°When you go back, | want you to think about what you did to me very carefully. | want a favorable result in tomorrow morning¡¯s tweet.** Yulissa¡¯s eyes widened. She thought in shock, ¡®What the hell? Why does she have this?* ¡°What do you mean? Why do you have this? I¡¯ll never do it!¡± She knew her life would be ruined if those things were posted on Twitter. The image Frederick''s manager had so painstakingly built up for her would be utterly destroyed. 1/15 Chapter 54 ¡°It was you who raised the stakes yesterday, remember? Do you want me to help you out?¡± Who could she me for digging her own grave but herself? Yulissa remembered what she said yesterday. At that time, she was absolutely confident that she would be the final winner. By then, herwsuit and Leonardo''swsuit could be dropped and she could make Cassandra rify everything that had happened at the , charity g.This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org. However, she didn¡¯t expect this result. ¡°Cassandra, wipe that smug look off your face! The score you got by cheating doesn¡¯t count!¡± Yulissa would never say anything about it, ever! If she revealed it, she would end up badly. She didn¡¯t want to lose everything now! ¡°You can report whether | cheated or not. However, the more you make a scene, the more you''ll be the one to suffer the consequences in the end. If you don¡¯t believe me,. just try it.¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t waste any more time. ¡°If | can¡¯t see the results tomorrow morning, don¡¯t me me for breaking your legs and turning you like your dearest brother, Raymond!¡± ¡°Cassandra, I''ll kill you!¡± Yulissa was already going crazy. She could not ept the oue. After that, Cassandra texted Jeremiah: [Suppress Yates Group on all fronts and buy their shares at a low price!] They didn¡¯t deserve to enjoy everything she had given before this! Now, the market value has doubled. Did they really think they could do anything? Giving up everything for the kinship gotten through a big gamble was ridiculous. At the Pinehart Mansion, Keh was talking with Yannick. ¡°Yannick, how''s Cassie at school recently?¡± Keh asked. He missed Cassandra very much. Although he met her Friday night, he missed her a lot. 2/5 70% Chapter 51 Yannick was at a loss for words. He didn¡¯t know when Keh had developed the habit of stalking! Moreover, he was stalking a high school girl who had just be an adult! ¡°Ms. Yates is doing well at school. ording to the test resultsst week, she got a 1564 score. Yulissa, who bet with her, has already honored her bet on the field today.¡± +5 When Keh heard Cassandra¡¯s score, he smiled slightly, proud of her achievements. ¡®My Cassie is still excellent! he thought. ¡°And?¡± ¡°What else?¡± Keh¡¯s face darkened, and he felt a little ufortable. Keh thought, ¡°That¡¯s it?¡¯ ¡°Oh, one more thing. Ms. Yates demanded that the imposter publicize what she had done to her before tomorrow morning. However, | think that the imposter won''t do it!¡± ¡°Not doing it, huh? If she doesn¡¯t want to, make her.¡± Keh¡¯s gaze was menacing. He continued, ¡°I want you to deal with it personally in the evening.¡± ¡®She won''t do it, you say? There are plenty of ways to get her to expose them, Keh mused. After a pause, Yannick answered, ¡°Yes!¡± Inwardly, hemented had sacrificed too much for this family. ¡°Mr. Zelinski, if you don¡¯t show up in front of Ms: Yates, she won¡¯t know about you!¡± At the charity g, Cassandra seemed to want to say something but held back. Moreover, because of Lucas, the 27-year-old Keh almost became the uncle of the 18-year¡ªold Cassandra. It was utterly unbelievable/ ¡°Shouldn''t you hurry on now and make arrangements?¡± Yannick was confused. 3/5 17:40 Mon, 19 Feb D Chapter 54 Heined inwardly, ¡®How am | supposed to arrange it? You''re the one pursuing a girl, but why am | taking the initiative? It doesn¡¯t make sense! | have a lot of questions! Really! ¡°Mr. Zelinski, what should |... arrange?¡± ¡°Create opportunities for me to court her, don¡¯t you understand?¡± Keh looked at Yannick with an exasperated look, and thetter was speechless. Suddenly, Yannick felt that the cruel, paranoid, and bloodthirsty Keh was not that bad. At least he was an emotionless machine, and Yannick could more or less guess what he wanted. Now, after returning to the country, Yannick could almost not recognize this version of his boss who ced all his attention on Cassandra. Most importantly, Yannick didn¡¯t know what Keh wanted!. Yannick shook his head honestly because he didn¡¯t understand. Beside them, Kayden couldn¡¯t stand it anymore! ¡°Who is this Cassandra you''re talking about?¡± Then, he wondered, ¡®Why aren¡¯t they including me in the gossip?¡± ¡°It''s none of your business. Get out of here now that your legs are healed!¡± ¡°Such an eyesore!" he thought. ¡°Come on, Keh. Maybe | can be your wingman!¡± Kayden persuaded. In fact, Kayden didn¡¯t want to go back home. To him, the old man was too annoying! ¡°What''s a wingman?¡± Keh didn¡¯t understand. ¡°It''s your helper in pursuing love!¡± ¡°You?¡± Keh did not believe it/ 4 He continued, ¡°It¡¯s time for you to go back and visit your grandfather. Everyone says your injuries are healed, but you haven''t gone home yet...¡± 4/5 Mon, 19 Feb Chapter 54 After all, it wasn¡¯t right. He had no home, but he knew his buddy¡¯s only home shouldn''t be lost. ? ¡°Oh, don¡¯t worry. It¡¯s not urgent. But you need to tell me who this Cassandra is first.¡± Kayden almost died of curiosity and desperately wanted someone to satiate it. Hence, Yannick briefly talked about Cassandra and the Yates family. ¡°Then Cassandra is someone from the Yates family!¡± Kayden was a little surprised. ¡°Mr. Yates, you don¡¯t have to im just anyone as your family member.¡± Yannick thought, ¡®Does he want to take advantage of Ms. Yates because she has the same surname? ¡°Well, she is in a way. Benjamin is from a branch family of the Yates family. Even though we''re connected by blood, the blood ties have probably thinned considerably. So, we never cared whether these people lived or died. Despite that, it¡¯s the truth.¡± Kayden thought, ¡°The girl Ken was chasing turned out to be from the Yates family? What a small world!" Keh was speechless. In an attempt to be humble, Keh asked, ¡°Okay, then how should.| get close to her?¡± In the past, he had thought about forcibly keeping her next to him or paranoidly locking her up at home. However, Cassandra had been very strange since she was a child. The more people forbade her from doing something, the more she wanted to do it. If he forced her, she mightsh out. He just didn¡¯t expect her to be this cager for family affection. 5/5 ¡ã SEND GIFT COMMENT 4 17:40 Mon, 19 Feb D c 70%! Chapter 55 Chapter 55 After ss, Cassandra went back to Springmount Townhouse by herself, but today seemed a little different. Indeed, it was. It seemed she had met someone familiar. Keh hadn''t expected to meet Cassandra right after moving in. Kayden¡¯s words actually held some credibility for once. Despite his seemingly nonchnt demeanor, he was aware that he had quickened his pace. He was afraid that if he was a moment toote, Cassandra would have gone inside. ¡°Ms. Yates, | didn¡¯t expect to run into you here.¡± Cassandra was also surprised. She had never seen Keh after living there for so many days. ¡®Wasn''t he supposed to live at the Zelinski residence? Why would he be here?¡® she¡® wondered to herself. ¡°Mr. Zelinski, what a coincidence meeting you here.¡± It was not coincidental at all. All these coincidences were carefully orchestrated chance encounters by Keh for a long time. ¡°Yeah, quite a coincidence. Let''s call it fate.¡± Cassandra was slightly taken aback. She couldn''t believe that Keh, the richest man in the world, an austere figure, would believe in fate. However, in the previous life, he had collected her body and even sought revenge for her. She wondered what his intention was. In her memory, she couldn''t recall knowing any Zelinski. So, when could they have met? Moreover, judging from Keh¡¯s behavior, it seemed like they didn¡¯t know each other at this point in time. 1/6 Mon, 19 Chapter 35 Could it be that she met him briefly at the Yates residence in her past life? But, that was not possible. After her reputation was almost ruined and her SAT was usurped, she had barely stepped foot out of the house. Every time she thought about her past life, she felt utterly foolish. ¡°Yes... Is Mr. Zelinski here to visit a friend or...¡± * ¡°| live in that block. It¡¯s close to the city here, so it''s convenient for me to go to work.¡± ¡®Convenient for seeing you too, Keh continued in his heart. Cassandra nodded in agreement. The reason she had chosen to stay in the townhouse was because of its proximity to the city, her school, and the downtown area. ¡°Do you live here too?¡± Keh pretended to be surprised. ¡°Yes, | live in this block.¡± Cassandra pointed to the townhouse in front of her. Keh slightly curled his lips, revealing a faint, almost imperceptible smile. ¡°It¡¯s too much to dismiss as just a coincidence now. I live next door to you.¡± Cassandra was speechless. ¡°That is indeed quite the coincidence.¡± 5 ¡°Mr. Zelinski, | still have some homework left to do, so I''ll excuse myself. | haven''t had the chance to thank you in person for defending me at the charity gst time. Let me treat you to a meal when you''re free,¡± she added.This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org. ¡°Sure, I''ll wait for your treat.¡± ¡®lll wait for you too! Keh said in his heart. Cassandra nodded faintly before heading home. Keh stood at the door for a long time, gazing at the closed door. Someday, he vowed, he would openly and legitimately live in a ce with Cassandra. Entering her home, Cassandra didn¡¯t have any actual homework to do. Instead, she delved into the Dark Web to search for information about Keh. However, the data she acquired didn¡¯t reveal much. There were also many files sealed away as secrets. 2/6 17:40 Mon, 19 FebD GK Chapter 35 All she knew was that Keh wasn¡¯t as bloodthirsty as he appeared. Kayden was the deputy team leader of the special operations force, which meant he was no ordinary person. Cassandra couldn''t help but wonder where exactly had they met before. ¡°What are you thinking about?¡± Jeremiah approached Cassandra quietly. ¡°Nothing much.¡± ¡°Do you remember the bodyguard you asked me to find before? | found him and gave him a good offer to work as your bodyguard at Modern Beacon Synergy. However, he needs to be trained for at least six months. You won''t be able to see him until then.¡± Although Jeremiah didnt understand why Cassandra wanted to look for that specific bodyguard, he always followed through on her requests. Modern Beacon Synergy was a business empire founded by Cassandra, second only to the Zelinski family¡¯s business empire. However, shest used it to create an opportunity for the Yates family. After that, she transferred all her shares to Timothy Gomez. the CEO of Modern Beacon Synergy, relinquishing her ties. At that time. for the sake of the Yates family, she had thrown herself into the fire, disregarding everything, and returned to them. ¡°It''s fine, as long as it''s arranged. It¡¯s my way to repay his kindness. In her previous life. if he hadn¡¯t simply buried her body, she might have been beyond recognition by the time Keh found her. Keh was a dangerous individual. Without getting a clear understanding of the situation, she couldn¡¯t get close to him easily. Yet, for some reason, Cassandra subconsciously felt that Keh wouldn''t harm her. But she¡¯d been hurt deeply by blood-rted family members. For others, she didn¡¯t know whether to trust them or not. ¡°Mom, Cassandra is too much!¡± Yulissained to Miranda. However, she was not confident either, as Benjamin and Leonardo still hadn¡¯te home. She had no clue what was happening. 2/6 17:40 Mon, 19 Feb DG. Chapter 55 Miranda¡¯s face darkened. ¡®1564 points? Was Cassandra this outstanding? ¡®But if she was ine, those grades had to be real! ¡°That brat! Why didn¡¯t she reveal her identity carlier?¡ã = Now, thinking back, Miranda regretted asking Benjamin to issue the estrangement statement. The Yates family was currently in trouble. If her own daughter was ine, and if she was willing to help, the Yates family would surely rise even higher. Lost in her thoughts, Miranda ignored Yulissa. ¡°Mom, why are you ignoring me?¡± Yulissa grumbled, lightly pushing Miranda to show her dissatisfaction. Only then did Mirandae back to her senses. ¡°Darling, I''ll stand up for you, but thepany is facing difficulties these days, so try not to provoke Cassandra for now!¡± Yulissa snorted and replied dissatisfiedly, ¡°Fine, Mom. But you have to help me.¡± Then, she went back to her room. ¡®Damn it! | can¡¯t believe Mom has changed too! ¡®What difficulties were thepany facing? If she doesn¡¯t want to help me, then don¡¯t! ¡®She just got interested after finding out that Cassandra was ine. ¡®No way! If she wants Cassandra back, it will depend on whether | agree or not. Her hatred grew out of bounds, but she seemed to forget about what Cassandra had said. However, it didn¡¯t matter. Someone would help her to remember. As she was about to fall asleep, an unwee guest arrived in her room. ¡°Ah- Mmph!¡± Her voice was cut off with her mouth covered. No one could hear her dries for help. 470 17.40 Mon, 19 Feb D Chapter 35 G Yannick looked around her room and clicked his tongue. ¡®No wonder it¡¯s a snatched room; it¡¯s quite spacious, he thought to himself. Yulissa was terrified, but she dared not call for help, fearing to be silenced. ¡°W-Who are you... Why are you here in my room?¡± Yannick was speechless. Acting in haste, he forgot to give himself a nickname. ¡°You don¡¯t need to know who | am. | just need to know about you.¡± Yulissa was even more scared. She trembled with fear. ¡°W¡ªWhat do you want?¡± ¡°Not much. | heard about your bet with someone, where you upped the ante yourself, and now you''re not nning to own up to it?¡± Yulissa couldn¡¯t even think properly now. She wondered when she had made a bet. ¡°| didn¡¯t. | didn¡¯t bet with anyone!¡± ¡°Don''t lie to me, youngdy. Have you forgotten about the bet between you and Ms. Yates?¡± ¡°I''m Ms. Yates!¡± Yannick was speechless. What an idiot! he thought to himself. ¡°You must fulfill your bet with Cassandra. Quickly, write down everything you''ve done to her with your hand!¡± Yulissa immediately came to her senses as soon as she heard Cassandra¡¯s name. ¡®He was sent by the bitch. ¡®I knew it! ¡®She can¡¯t stand to see me doing well. ¡°You were sent by Cassandra!¡± Yulissa suddenly wasn¡¯t afraid anymore. She thought Cassandra had sent someone over because she couldn¡¯t outwit her, and that she was useless. ¡°Whether I¡¯m sent by someone or not, | only know that if you don¡¯t write it, you won''t live through today!¡± Yannick spoke the most menacing words with the gentlest tone. He drew a gun from his waist and pressed it on Yulissa¡¯s forehead. 5/6 Chapter 56 Chapter 56 Yulissa was petrified. She dared not speak, and her eyes were filled with panic. ¡®Gun! How could there be a gun!¡¯ she eximed in her heart. ¡°Do you understand what | am saying?¡± Yannick¡¯s voice was cold. Fear struck Yulissa as she trembled all over. ¡®I can¡¯t die. | don¡¯t want to die!¡¯ she thought. ¡°1... Pll write, I''ll write...¡± Yannick grabbed her by the back cor and walked her to her desk. ¡°Write it!*. ¡°You''d better not shake your hands. If the handwriting is too messy and it can¡¯t be read, the oue will be the same.¡± Yulissa was so scared that she didn¡¯t dare to move her hand. She forcefully suppressed her inner fear and calmed herself down. She swore to let Cassandra pay back the humiliation she received today. After about 40 minutes, Yulissa had written down everything. Yannick nced at it. ¡®Tsk, truly inhuman,¡¯ he thought. ¡°Give me your phone.¡± Naturally, he had to use her phone and her ount to post it. Using another person¡¯s might lead to a reversal. Only by dealing with the matter could Keh have the chance to contact Cassandra. Anyway, Yannick thought that a vicious woman like Yulissa deserved retribution for her multitude of wrongdoings. She was reaping what she sowed. Yulissa was genuinely afraid of the gun in Yannick¡¯s hand. A single slip from the gun could cost her life. She could post it andter im she was threatened by Cassandra. At that time, Cassandra¡¯s reputation would be ruined. She prepared the text, and Yannick helped with the rest. 15 Chapter 56 a ¡°Hugo, once Yulissa posts everything tomorrow, could you go to the school and arrange for me to study at home? | won''t go back to school until the SAT, Cassandra stated. In her previous life, she scored 1574 points on the SAT. It was no problem for her to enroll at Juset University. She could even get a full schrship. But Yulissa only scored 853 points, making it challenging for her to even enroll in an undergraduate school Therefore, those in the Yates family forced her to give up her spot. Since no one knew about Cassandra¡¯s existence, they could simply change Yulissa¡¯s name. It wasn¡¯t a big problem for them.Content rights by N?velDr//ama.Org. Cassandra thought it was interesting for her to experience the SAT once again. Most importantly, the thought of being able to trample Yulissa under her foot made it even more intriguing. ¡°Ms. Yates, do you have another task?¡± Hugo was curious about why Cassandra would stop going to school for a month. When Blossom died that time, she had asked Cassandra to study hard, attend university, and excel. This could be considered fulfilling Blossom¡¯s wish. Cassandra would take it as an experience. ¡°Yes, but it¡¯s not a task. I¡¯ve been invited to be a judge at Camille International Music Competition.¡± If she remembered correctly, Yohannes was going to participate in thepetition with a music score ¡°gifted¡± to him by Yulissa. In the previous life, he had sailed through thepetition and won the first prize by using that music score. Yohannes did so by taking someone else¡¯s work and iming it as his own creation. Cassandra thought, ¡®Yohannes, let¡¯s see how you manage this time. ¡°Okay, I''ll go to school tomorrow to handle the matter.¡± When Yulissa woke up again, she was awakened by a series of knocks on the door from outside. ¡°Lisa, Lisa, are you in there?¡± ¡°Lisa, open the door. It''s me. Please open the door!¡± Miranda said. ¡°Lisa, we believe in you. Open the door and let me in!¡± Jasper followed suit. 3/5 Mon, 19 Fet Chapter 56 Yulissa shook her head, trying to wake herself up. ¡®What happened? Why is it so noisy outside?¡® she thought. She went to open the door and Miranda, Jasper, and Benjamin all came in. However, Benjamin¡¯s expression didn¡¯t look too good. Behind Benjamin was Leonardo, who hadn¡¯t uttered a word from the beginning. ¡°Lisa, what¡¯s going on about Twitter?¡± Jasper couldn¡¯t help asking. He couldn''t believe Yulissa would be like that. ¡°Twitter? What Twitter?¡± Yulissa was puzzled. ¡°Don''t y dumb. It¡¯s your phone, your ount, and the things you wrote. Why are you still pretending? How did I end up raising such an ipetent ingrate like you?¡± When Benjamin saw the tweet, his blood pressure skyrocketed, nearly causing c¨¦rebral congestion. He was already hassled withpany matters and kept waiting for Yulissa to apologize, but he never got a result. Now, the Yates family had be apleteughingstock and the topic of gossip among those prestigious families. His reputation had been thoroughly tarnished. Moreover, thepany was facing an unknown external attack. Many of its products were affected, and even the cooperation projects faced limitations. If the project failed to pass the construction approval, the workers at the construction site couldn''t start their work. Previously, they could still start working with the foundation, but now, any action would be considered unauthorized construction, which would invite stricter fines. ¡°Darling, calm down. Let¡¯s ask the kid what she has to say.¡± Miranda believed that Yulissa, was someone kind-hearted, hence she would not do such a thing. Those allegations must be fabricated. Yulissa opened her Twitter and found a statement posted from her ount.

Morcover, Yulissa had imposed a condition that Cassandra had to have a total score higher than Yulissa¡¯s by 60 points to win. Initially, this condition wasn¡¯t part of the bet. It was added the day before the exam. As a result, it backfired on Yulissa. She scored 1481 points, while Cassandra scored 1564 points. She had fulfilled the bet by running ten laps on the field and shouting ¡®Yulissa is an idiot¡¯ 200 times. It¡¯s a pity that missed such a scene.] [Damn! This is so explosive!] [So vicious, but it''s quite pitiful too. The pitiful part is that she¡¯s too smug!] you all ¡°Lisa, tell me, why did you write these?¡± Jasper asked patiently. To him, Yulissa had always been good to Cassandra, even enduring many grievances withoutint. He could not believe that she was as malicious as stated in the post. He was certain it must be fake. ¡°It was Cassandra who asked me to write it...¡± Yulissa buried her face in Miranda¡¯s shoulder and cried uncontrobly. She was too ashamed to face anyone and swore she would let Cassandra face her doom. ¡°Why?¡± Jasper asked. Leonardo frowned at the side. He was already skeptical about Yulissa¡¯s words. He used to believe in herpletely, but her behavior at the charity g was beyond his understanding. ¡°Cassandra and | made a bet aboutst week''s exam. But the day before yesterday, she suddenly wanted to raise the stakes. | didn¡¯t expect I''d fall into her trap and do this! I¡¯m so sorry. Sorry, Dad, Mom. Sorry to all of you!¡± Benjamin immediately directed his fury at Cassandra. ¡°That brat! I¡¯m not her father if | don¡¯t teach her a lesson today!¡± Leonardo stayed silent; he was unconvinced. Cassandra had severed ties with them voluntarily long ago. She would not try to 2/5 17:41 Mon, 19 Feb > Chapter 57 provoke them. Moreover, he had received a second summons from the court. They were investigating Cassandra¡¯s kidnapping incident. She did not seize that opportunity for extortion, so she could not have made such a senseless, self-destructive bet. He could not make sense of it. Leonardo was somewhat annoyed and frustrated. Previously, seeing Yulissa cry would have undoubtedly stirred his heart. However, now, he felt indifferent, even impatient, at seeing those tears. Benjamin went to Whitecrane Hall again. ¡°Cassandra,e out here!¡± Scarlett was surprised to see him again. She promptly used the inte to call for security. ¡°Let Cassandrae out and see me!¡± He wondered why Cassandra could not let the Yates family thrive. She also dared to team up with outsiders to go against Yulissa. ¡°Mr. Yates, if you continue causing a scene like this, we''ll have to ask you to leave,¡± Scarlett said politely. ¡°I''m Cassandra''s father. Make here out and see me! Who are you to drive me away?¡± Jeremiah came out from the office and frowned at Benjamin upon seeing him. ¡°What''s going on?¡± ¡°Mr. Lawson, Mr. Yates is here to see Ms. Cassandra Yates.¡± ¡°She¡¯s not here.

It was precisely because she did not notice him that Benjamin found an opportunity. Benjamin pped her and said, ¡°You ingrate! How could you treat Yulissa so miserly? How could you have such malicious thoughts?¡± Cassandra did not notice him, so she could not have avoided the p. Thus, she took the hit squarely. Cassandra raised her eyes slightly; they were filled with murderous intent. p! Benjamin¡¯s head jerked to the side. Cassandra had returned with a p to him right away. ¡°Mr. Yates, did youe here just to make a scene? What do you think Whitecrane Hall is?¡± Cassandra red at him angrily. Anyone who had been cklisted at Whitecrane Hall should never set foot in Whitecrane Hall again. ¡°Scarlett, what¡¯s this? Don¡¯t you know thepany¡¯s rules?¡± Jeremiah immediately criticized. ¡°Stop trying to change the subject!¡± Scarlett was now sweating bullets. She had never encountered such a serious situation before and did not know how to handle it. ¡°Mr. Lawson, I-I have called the security guard, but this man just wouldn''t leave and insisted on waiting here for Ms. Yates...*. ¡°Cassandra, aren''t you afraid of karma? How dare you hit me?¡± Benjamin was furious. ¡°Karma? Look at everything that¡¯s stered online. If it weren''t for your interests, would you all still treat me like this?¡± She had experienced karma long ago. ¡°You ingrate! You better issue a statement quickly, iming that all of it is fake!¡± ¡°Sure, unless you die. I''ll only issue a statement once you''re dead!¡± Chapter 58 Chapter 58 Cassandra¡¯s words sessfully sparked Benjamin''s rage. He pointed at Cassandra¡¯s nose and bellowed, ¡°You''re so rebellious! You even wished for my death. | should never have brought you back. | should leave you to fend for yourself in the countryside!¡± Cassandra narrowed her eyes, her expression darkening. After all, she disliked it when people pointed at her. She had previously pretended to be weak for the sake of so-called familial ties, but she could no longer stand being pointed at with a finger. Suddenly, Cassandra made a move, gripping Benjamin¡¯s finger and twisting it. ¡°Keep in mind that | despise it when people point fingers at me. | used to tolerate pleasing you all, but you no longer deserve to teach me a lesson! Your foolish daughter, Yulissa, has already done enough havoc. If you can¡¯t see the truth, stop showing up in front of me. It is truly revolting!¡± ¡°Argh!¡± Benjamin let out a miserable cry. Even when confronted with the undeniable truth, all of them continued to believe Yulissa was innocent. There was nothing else Cassandra could do. Getting people to change their minds was one of the hardest things. ¡°What a treacherous daughter! I¡¯m your father. How dare you hit me? You must immediately apologize to me and repent of your action!¡± Benjamin''s face flushed as he felt the pain get worse. He believed Cassandra had broken his finger. ¡®She¡¯s too ruthless! First, she broke Ray¡¯s hand, and now she broke my finger. A daughter like this should be disciplined! he remarked inwardly. ¡°Father? Who''s my father? Didn¡¯t you already make your choice? If | recall correctly, you issued a statement severing ties with me. Now you are talking about being my father? Mr. Yates, are you trying to humiliate yourself?¡± Cassandra kindly reminded him. Top she had She felt that she had been too gentle recently. Despite wanting revenge, subconsciously avoided getting involved with them. However, they took her concessions for granted. She had finally realized that, rather than being a good citizen and being bullied, she would rather be an ouw who punished others. Besides, she had the ability to defend herself. 4/4 Mon, 19 Feb Chapter 58 5 4., 69% When she saw them causing havoc, she remembered how she died in her previous life. ¡°Y¡ª-You!¡± ¡°Get lost! If you don¡¯t want your hand to end up like Raymond''s, then scram. Don¡¯t even think about ndering me. | have plenty of evidence to prove that Yulissa¡¯s ims are false. If you don¡¯t care about embarrassing yourselves, and if you want Yates Group''s stocks to plummet further, go ahead and try!¡± Cassandra yelled. There were surveince cameras in every corner of the Yates residence. She could recover any existing footage or traces on the inte, even if they were corrupted or deleted. ¡°Scarlett, inform the security team. Take immediate action if they see anyone from the Yates familying again in the future!¡± Cassandra ordered. ¡°Understood,¡± replied Scarlett. ¡°Mr. Yates, I¡¯ve never seen anyone as shameless as you. Yates Group¡¯s stock will plunge if you do not leave now.¡± Jeremiah felt incredibly generous as he spoke. After all, to remind Benjamin in such dire circumstances was extremely kind of him. ¡°Jeremiah, let¡¯s go,¡± Cassandra said. The security team would take over the situation. As Cassandra walked toward her office, she heard an irritating voice calling out, ¡°Cassandra, stop right there!¡± It was Leonardo. When Leonardo saw Benjamin''s face flushed with rage while covering his hand in pain, he knew things were not going well. He looked at Cassandra and asked sternly, ¡°Are you the one who did it?¡± Hearing that, Cassandra impatiently turned to look at him. ¡°Mr. Leonardo Yates, do you want to avenge your father?¡± ¡°Why are you being so aggressive toward us? Wasn''t it you who couldn¡¯t tolerate Lisa in the past?¡± They were just trying to discipline their younger sister for being disobedient, and he could not understand why she was fighting back. When someone in a family did something wrong, their family should correct them. Cassandra shook her head sarcastically and piped up coldly, ¡°Mr. Leonardo Yates, do you still believe it was | who could not tolerate Yulissa?¡± 2/4 G 69% Chapter 38 She couldn''t help but find what he said ridiculous. Leonardo was rendered speechless. Indeed, he had always assumed that Cassandra was the one who could not stand Yulissa, which resulted in their constant disagreements. However, all of the social media content suggested that Yulissa was the one who could not stand Cassandra. ¡®But Yulissa is still young, and she¡¯s probably more sensitive because she isn¡¯t the Yates family¡¯s biological daughter. Meanwhile, Cassandra should be taught more strictly because she¡¯s a member of the Yates family. Why does she have to treat us this way? he wondered. ¡°So, what do you want? We won''t ask you to treat Lisa well or return to the Yates family, but at least don¡¯t be so hostile toward us. After all, we are family, aren''t we?¡± Leonardo tried to sway Cassandra with familial sentiments because he knew Cassandra was most concerned with their opinions and attitudes toward her. During that period of time, he had thought a lot. Despite the fact that Yulissa was not entirely innocent, he could understand her actions. It was natural for her to express her displeasure with an outsider. Nevertheless, because Cassandra was innocent, he desired to make amends. Even if she never returned to the Yates family, he wanted their rtionship to be less strained. ¡°Can | do whatever | want?¡± Cassandra asked. His words piqued her interest. Unexpectedly and ironically, the first person to show goodwill toward her was Leonardo. ¡°Yes, | will do my best to make it up to you,¡± Leonardo replied. When Benjamin heard that, he could not care less about his pain. ¡°Leo, what nonsense are you saying? She isn¡¯t worth your time and effort to make amends with. She should be the one apologizing to Lisa!¡± ¡°Dad, she¡¯s your biological daughter!¡± Leonardo said coldly, then turned to Cassandra, his gaze softening. ¡°Tell me what you want.¡± ¡°Previously, | heard Yulissa say that you wanted to send me to Desert Ind. Since you want to make amends, | will give you two options. Either you go to Desert Ind and live there for a month, or Yulissa goes and lives there for a week. What do you think? I''m being quite reasonable, right? You can withstand it more because you are a tough man. Regarding Yulissa, | have been gracious enough to request that she only have to live there for a week. Now, make your decision!¡± 4/4 Chapter 58 TY FED Desert Ind was a deste ind teeming with wild beasts. There were no humans living on the ind. It was a ce where going in meant risking one¡¯s life. Few people could survive for three days there. Because of that, Leonardo was unable to agree to any of the options she gave. The next moment, his expression darkened. ¡°How can you be so vicious? Do you want us to die so badly?¡± ¡®It''s nearly impossible to survive on Desert Ind for even three days, much less a month. | have no idea she¡¯s so evil,¡¯ he mused. ¡°That¡¯s right. Didn¡¯t you want me dead in the first ce? Trying to make amends now means you should be the one to die!¡± After saying that, Cassandra ignored them and said to Scarlett, ¡°Scarlett, escort them out!¡± In the office, Cassandra asked Hugo, ¡°Hugo, have you finalized everything regarding my school leave?*_ ¡°Yes, it¡¯s been taken care of. You won''t need to go to school from now on,¡± Hugo replied. In response, Cassandra nodded and stated, ¡°Book a flight for me to Spaunia.

COMMENT 1/5 Chapter 59 Chapter 59 Since Cassandra didn¡¯t have to go to school anymore, she could go home. When she went to Spauniater, she would have to visit Modern Beacon Synergy too. When she left in the past, she gave Timothy all of her shares. Since she decided to be herself again, she needed to go there and buy back her shares. Thinking of the amount of money she had to spend, she suddenly regretted her actions. in the past and cursed herself for being foolish. As soon as she returned to Springmount Townhouse, she ran into Keh. ¡°Mr. Zelinski, why aren¡¯t you at work?¡± she inquired. ¡®Why is a busy CEO, who should be dealing with numerous issues on a daily basis, strolling around the mansion? she wondered. ¡°Why aren¡¯t you at school?¡± Keh learned that she had enrolled in off-campus tutoring and would not be returning to school before the SAT. He felt a bit restless, wondering if something had happened. ¡°| won''t be going to school for a while. There¡¯s something | need to take care of.¡± She subconsciously treated Keh as a close friend, someone with whom she could share a few more words and exin a little more. ¡°Aren''t you just a student?¡± ¡®Could it be that ine is the one in trouble? That¡¯s why she has to step in since she¡¯s ine?¡® he thought. ¡°Just some odd jobs to make some extra cash,¡± she exined. She reasoned that if she told him she was going to be a judge for Camille International Music Competition, he would most likely not believe her. ¡°It''s almost mealtime. You mentioned treating me to a meal before. How about today?¡± Keh suggested. He didn¡¯t want to just exchange greetings with Cassandra. Deep down, he wished they could sit down and talk so they could spend more time together. Meanwhile, Cassandra remained silent. She did appear to have said that, and she was surprised that he remembered. ¡°Do you have any culinary preferences, Mr. Zelinski?¡± 17:41 Mon, 19 Feb D Chapter 59 Nheless, she decided to keep her promise, even if it had been made casually. ¡°It''s already quitete. Let¡¯s not go out to cat. Do you know how to cook? Just make something simple.¡± When Cassandra heard that, she was rendered speechless, ¡®Why not go out to cat? I¡¯ve got the money ready, and he suggests that we eat at home?¡® she pondered. Keh had different thoughts. For him, being able to enter Cassandra¡¯s home was a dreame true. ¡°But | don¡¯t have any ingredients at home.¡± Hugo was the one who always brought her enough ingredients for a single day. He appeared to have arranged for fresh ingredients to be delivered to Whitecrane Hall and then brought them home himself after work. ¡°| can deal with that. I''ll have Yannick send them over.¡± With that, Keh regarded it as a done deal and boldly made his way to Cassandra¡¯s front door, waiting for her to unlock the door. If his observations over thest two days were correct, the only regr residents should be Cassandra and Hugo. Hugo returned every day to prepare meals for her. The housekeeper service was most likely on a set schedule for daily cleaning. Therefore, the mansion was supposed to be empty at the moment. ! He could not get in unless she opened the door for him. Cassandra, feeling indebted to him, figured she could handle a few more meals, but she was not sure if he had known about her for a long time. It was not a good idea to be overly friendly with someone when you¡¯did not know anything about their background. In the end, Cassandra unlocked the door and invited him in. ¡°When will Yannick bring the ingredients over?¡± ¡°He''ll probably arrive in about ten minutes.¡± 4 Cassandra nodded and didn¡¯t say anything more. Instead, she went to the kitchen and washed some fruits. She was uninterested in most of the fruits avable during this season because they were not particrly sweet. However, most men disliked sweet foods, so she thought it should be just right for Keh. 275 17:41 Mon, 19 Feb Chapter 59 She nned to make some pudding for herselfter. Momentster, Cassandra brought the washed fruit to Keh and said, ¡°Have some fruit first. When the ingredients arrive, it will take some time to cook.¡± ¡°Thank you.*. Keh¡¯s heart was racing at that moment. He could not bear to eat it because he assumed the fruit Cassandra had prepared for him had to be extremely delicious. However, if he did not eat it, it would appear that he did not respect her. +5 He eventually picked up a piece of watermelon with a toothpick and ate it with dignity. ¡°It¡¯s very sweet.¡± At that moment, the doorbell rang. Yannick had brought the ingredients with him. Yannick could not help but feel like he was the link between Keh and Cassandra. Without him, Keh would most likely fail to get Cassandra to notice him. ¡°Ms. Yates, I''ll leave Mr. Zelinski in your care this afternoon. These ingredients do not include anything that Mr. Zelinski dislikes or is allergic to. The remainder is up to you, Ms. Yates.¡± Keh¡¯s identity was more than just being the CEO of the Zelinski family¡¯s business or being the world¡¯s richest man. As a result, he had to adhere to strict dietary requirements. However, Keh had shamelessly asked Cassandra to cook him a meal. Yannick thought it might be going too far to ask Cassandra to prepare a meal that was up to their standard. The thing that worried Yannick the most was that Keh identally ate food that he was allergic to, causing him to be unable to handle situations in case of emergency. People like them had to be on high alert all the time. ¡°All right, leave the rest to me. Mr. Yannick Zelinski, how about staying for a meal together?¡± Cassandra asked. In her previous life, when Keh helped her seek revenge, Yannick assisted him as well. However, before Yannick could respond, he received a warning re from Keh. ¡°| appreciate it, Ms. Yates, but | still have work to do. I''ll be taking my leave now.¡± 4 Cassandra nodded to show her understanding and did not insist on him staying. 3/5 Mon, 19 Feb Chapter 59 69% After Yannick left, Cassandra organized the ingredients and ced them in the fridge. ¡°What are your favorite dishes?¡± ¡°Just prepare the meal as you see fit,¡± Keh answered. ¡®I''ll enjoy anything you make,¡¯ he added inwardly. The meal was ready about an hour and a halfter. Cassandra immactely prepared several dishes, so it took a bit longer than expected. She prepared sweet and sour ribs, crab cake meatballs, mushroom soup, orange chicken, and sd. Five dishes should be more than enough for two people. Keh caught the aroma and walked over. Seeing the sumptuous dishes, he couldn''t help but swallow involuntarily. In reality, he was not someone who sought sensory pleasures, but he could not resist trying all of Cassandra¡¯s dishes. He was certain it would be a delectable meal. ¡°It looks appetizing. Should we start eating?¡± He couldn''t wait anymore. ¡°Sure. I''ll go get us some pasta,¡± said Cassandra. ¡°Allow me to do it. You¡¯ve prepared so much food. It¡¯s a lot of work. Let me handle the pasta. Just tell me where the tes are, Keh said proactively. ¡®Cassie prepared the food, and | served it. What a dreame true!¡® he eximed mentally. ¡°They''re in the cupboard below the gas stove.¡± Then, Keh walked into the kitchen, found the tes, and filled them with pasta. Hugo had modified the mansion¡¯s dining table, which had previously been veryrge. He thought the table was too big and that the dishes would only take up a small portion of it, giving the impression of loneliness. Aside from that, it was difficult to converse with those who sat across from each other. As a result, he converted it into a standard dining table with seating for six people. Keh felt that even though they sat opposite each other, they were still very close. 475 Chapter 59Content rights by N?velDr//ama.Org. Cassandra picked up the serving cutlery and served a piece of chicken for Keh. ¡°Give it a try and see if it suits your taste.¡± Keh¡¯s inexperienced demeanor made him seem particrly pathetic. Swiftly, he ate the piece of chicken. ¡°It¡¯s delicious.¡± ¡®I''m d that he likes it, Cassandra pondered. ¡°I''ve added crab seasoning to the meatballs. Hugo made the crab seasoning all by himself, so there aren''t any artificial vors in it. If you''re allergic to crabs, you might want to avoid this dish.¡± She had noticed that there was no scafood in the ingredients Yannick had brought, so she assumed Keh was allergic to seafood. ¡°I''m not allergic to crabs, only to certain types of shrimp. To avoid allergies, my chef rarely cooks seafood,¡± Keh exined. ¡°In that case, would you like me to make another dish?¡± There was still plenty of minced meat left over from carlier, without the crab seasoning. She still had enough time to prepare another dish. ¡°No need to trouble yourself. | can cat this.¡± He almost jumped with joy when he realized Cassandra cared so much about him. 575 Chapter 60 Chapter 60 ¡°No need to trouble yourself. | can eat crabs. You don¡¯t have to amodate me.¡± Keh felt he was already enjoying the most delectable meal of his life. Even if he could not eat crab, it would not matter. He would eat everything Cassandra prepared for him. ¡°All right. The other ingredients were brought by Yannick, so they should be fine. If you can¡¯t have the meatballs, let¡¯s just make do with the other dishes.¡± Cassandrapromised. In reality, she was also hungry and toozy to move. Nheless, since she had invited him to a meal together, she had to make sure it was to his liking. After hearing that he could eat the dishes she prepared, she did not care about making another dish. ¡°Okay.¡± Keh felt incredibly blissful. He had fantasized about eating at the same table as Cassandra, and it had now be a reality. Watching Keh eat gracefully, Cassandra found it quite pleasing. She might not feel the same way if it were another man. She could feel that he seemed to be in a good mood. Thinking of that, she observed his face closely. After staring at him for a long while, she was certain that she didn¡¯t know him. During her two years with the Yates family in her previous life, she only met a few people. ¡®Why would he avenge me in my previous life? Is there something | missed?¡® she wondered. As a member of the special force, Keh was perceptive and noticed Cassandra watching him. He was ecstatic when he realized that. ¡®She¡¯s looking at me. She¡¯s looking at me! It seems like my appearance is still quite appealing! She has been looking at me for several minutes. Could it be that she¡¯s falling in love with me?¡® he remarked inwardly. 1/15 09% Chapter 60 In the end, Keh spoke up, interrupting Cassandra¡¯s thoughts. After all, having her stare at him for too long without understanding what she was thinking was making him nervous. ¡°Why are you staring at me?¡± When Cassandra heard that, she withdrew her gaze. ¡°Mr. Zelinski, have we met before? Perhaps before the charity g, or maybe before Yulissa¡¯s 18th birthday celebration?¡± Keh¡¯s expression darkened. Cassandra seemed to have forgotten about him. ¡®Then, why is she showing so much kindness toward me? he pondered. He was well aware of his reputation in the circle. Everyone thought of him as a cold- blooded killer with a ruthless personality. However, Cassandra did not show any fear or awe when she first met him, treating him as if he were a regr person. ¡°What do you think, Ms. Yates?¡± Since she didn¡¯t remember anything, he was fine with starting over. He could keep those painful yet beautiful memories to himself. There was no need for her to recall those memories. ¡°| have no recollection of meeting you, but | feel strangely familiar with you. Perhaps we knew each other in our previous lives.¡± Cassandra knew she had to stop asking if Keh did not want to arrswer. ¡®I''ll just treat it as I''ve known him in my previous life. After all, it''s true that | know him from my previous life,¡¯ she pondered. / ¡°It''s possible. Fate is a wonderful thing.¡± Seeing that Cassandra wasn¡¯t pushing for more details, Keh subtly breathed a sigh of relief. ¡°Do you believe in fate, Mr. Zelinski?¡± ¡°| didn¡¯t believe it in the past,¡± he responded. ¡®Before | met you, | only believed that my fate was entirely in my own hands. After meeting you, | believe fate is predetermined, especially for the two of us! he eximed to himself. Cassandra frowned. ¡®He did not believe before, but now he does?¡® she wondered. 4 Then, Keh changed the subject. ¡°Mr. Hathaway requested that | look after you. If 2/5 Mon, 19 Feb D Chapter 60 you require anything in the future, please contact me.¡± Cassandra remained silent, wondering if Lucas was still treating her as a child. 2uz 69%M Nevertheless, Keh didn¡¯t give her a chance to refute and took out his phone. ¡°I''ll add you on WhatsApp so we can stay in touch more easily.¡± For the first time, Cassandra witnessed a CEO handling WhatsApp with such expert skills. In no time, he showed her his QR code, signaling for her to scan it.. She thought it was a good idea to add him as a friend as well. Perhaps it woulde in handy in the future. Thinking of that, Cassandra took out her phone,unched WhatsApp, and scanned his QR code to add him as a friend. His profile picture was ck, whereas hers was transparent. They certainly looked like friends and shared simr tastes. ¡°You should save my phone number in your contacts. If I¡¯m slow to reply on WhatsApp, you can call me instead.¡± Keh would never admit that it took Yannick a long time to teach him how to add friends on WhatsApp. He didn¡¯t enjoy using phones, considering them a distraction. Hence, his WhatsApp ount was rtively new, and it was all thanks to Yannick that he was able to find his QR code so quickly. Direct calls were more convenient for him. ¡°720...¡± Keh immediately gave Cassandra a call and said, ¡°Remember to save my number.¡± Meanwhile, he secretly changed her contact name to Cassie. At the Yates residence, Yulissa¡¯s heart sank when she saw the Twitter post from her ount. She could not figure out how it happened.N?velDrama.Org: owner of this content. She could not deny it because it was her ount, her phone, and the IP address of the Yates residence. Even if she denied it, no one would believe her.

We need to go to the hospital now.¡± ¡°Okay.¡± In reality, Yulissa didn¡¯t want to go. She was now quite famous. Now that she had be the object of ridicule for everyone, if she went to the hospital, she might receive criticism from the general public. It was, however, an excellent opportunity to mend her rtionship with her father. When they arrived at the hospital, a doctor was correcting Benjamin¡¯s finger. ¡°Try not to move this finger as much as possible. It¡¯s better to use this hand less frequently. If it doesn¡¯t heal properly, this finger may be useless.¡± The doctor had no idea how Benjamin¡¯s finger had be so distorted. Fortunately, the finger was still intact when they arrived at the hospital. Any slight movement or touch in the wrong spot could render it useless. ¡°Doctor, how long will it take to heal?¡± It was embarrassing for Benjamin, as chairman, to have his index finger bent out of shape. The board of directors was making a fuss every day, and he was overwhelmed. ¡®Cassandra¡¯s nothing but a jinx! The only thing she ever does is cause trouble for the Yates family, he cursed inwardly. ¡°Benjamin, what happened to your finger? Who did this to you?¡± Miranda knew her husband valued himself highly and wouldn¡¯t have caused that injury himself. ¡°Who else could it be? It''s Cassandra! That ingrate not only broke Ray¡¯s hand, but she also broke my finger. That brat really needs some discipline!¡± ¡°This is outrageous! She¡¯s too arrogant!¡± Miranda was furious. ¡°Dad, you should rest first. Put some ice on your face.¡± Leonardo could not figure out why he was feeling so conflicted. Despite the fact that he 5 475 Mon, 19 Feb Chapter 60 09% had earlier defended Yulissa in front of Cassandra, he was irritated when Yulissa stood before him, crying. He would rather face the shareholders¡® unreasonable demands than deal with her. ¡°What happened? Why is your face like this? Why do you need to use an ice pack?¡± Miranda asked with concern, examining Benjamin¡¯s face closely. She noticed a p mark on her husband''s face. That person¡¯s fingers were obviously slender. Miranda thought, ¡®Was it Cassandra who did it again?¡¯ She got her answer right away when Benjamin yelled, ¡°Cassandra pped me! That brat, I''ll teach her a lesson!¡± ¡°Stop yelling.

It was inappropriate for a noblewoman to yell. It showed that she had no manners. ¡°It''s okay now. You can leave,¡± the doctor said impatiently. ¡°Is that all? Doesn''t he need to be hospitalized?¡± Miranda almost doubted the doctor''s skills. She wondered why Benjamin did not need to be hospitalized after suffering such a serious injury. The doctor was also confused to see someone who was eager to be hospitalized. ¡°He hurt his finger. He didn¡¯t have an operation or bleed. Why does he need to be hospitalized? Just be careful after going home.¡± The doctors almost felt that it was some online viral trend. Fortunately, they came here in time. Otherwise, the wound would have healed. Although his broken finger would not recover for a while, it would not affect his daily life. The doctor was confused, wondering why they needed to be hospitalized. ¡°Are you any good? | think you''re a chatan!¡± Miranda made a scene. The doctor had never seen someone who insisted on hospitalizing their husband. ¡°If you want to be hospitalized, you can go through the formalities. There are still beds avable.¡± No one wanted to stay in the hospital in this season. The doctor found the couple strange. Yulissa could not stand it anymore. ¡°Mom, Dad only hurt his finger. He can go home and recuperate. Don¡¯t waste public resources.¡± Miranda immediately listened and found what her daughter said made sense.

When Keh got back to the hotel, it was already eight o¡¯clock in the evening. Cassandra was a little hungry. She had irregr meals at the Yates residence, so she had gastrosis. During this period, Hugo helped her to recuperate. She always had a regr diet and didn¡¯t expect her stomach to hurt again while she waited for Keh today.

When thepetition officially began, all the contestants showed their talents respectively. When they saw who Samantha truly was, they were very surprised. Some even became fans and wanted to take photos with Cassandra, forgetting about the competition. ¡°Dear contestant, today is the semifinals. Please take thepetition seriously,¡± Cassandra had to remind the contestant. Otherwise, thepetition might be a fan-girl scene. When it was Yohannes¡¯ turn, Cassandra raised her eyebrows with interest and waited for his performance. Yohannes was a little nervous and didn¡¯t look Samantha in the eye when he went on stage. He bowed to the judges and started his performance. Yulissa gifted him the piece of music. He wanted to give it to his idol to express his admiration for her. The melodious sound of the violin made people feel rxed and pleasant. However, only Marcus¡¯ face darkened immediately after the first part of the melody yed.

He felt that Yulissa would never mean harm to him; this music score, as she exined, was a gift she had prepared for her idol for an entire year. However, because Yohannes was gearing up for thepetition and faced a creative block, Yulissa decided she might as well let him use it.

Yulissa exined she had intentionally imitated it, so it was just a way of her paying homage to her idol. Samantha¡¯s signature only consisted of thest name ¡°Jenkins¡± in calligraphic style. Hence, Yohannes understood Yulissa¡¯s exnation and believed his sister. ¡°It''s just a tribute to Ms. Jenkins that¡¯s intentionally imitated. You can verify it; the handwriting is different from Ms. Jenkins¡±.¡± Marcus snorted dismissively, thinking, ¡®Of course, it¡¯s different! This was written by Cassandra when she was 13.

Don¡¯t you know whose work this is?¡± demanded Yohannes. Everyone in the family knew that Yulissa had given Yohannes a piece, and Cassandra was no exception. Yet, she hadn¡¯t said anything thus far. ¡°What do you want me to say?¡± Yohannes was frustrated. ¡°You can¡¯t justbel Lisa¡¯s work as giarism just because you dislike her!¡± +5 On the stage, Cassandra rolled her eyes. ¡°Are you ignorant or seriously dumb? Did Yulissa drug you all, making you obediently follow her every word? As if whatever she says goes! Didn''t you take a closer look at the peculiarities of that music score? Look at the signature and sunflower. Did you not suspect them at all? Don¡¯t tell me you''re going to say this is just a coincidence!¡± It was beyond Cassandra¡¯s expectations that Yulissa would actually hand over the former¡¯s discarded draft straight to Yohannes. Cassandra scoffed inwardly. She was waiting to humiliate Yohannes, but as it turned out, he beat her to it, humiliating himself. Yohannes was caught off guard by her question and left dumbstruck. He had personally made a copy because he couldn''t bring himself to use the gift from his sister. Therefore, he had kept the original preserved all this time. ¡°Cassandra, you are just doing this on purpose because you''re jealous of Lisa!¡± His words had long fueled suspicions among everyone present, for Cassandra and Yohannes sounded as though they were siblings. ¡®Could it be that Yohannes pulled some strings behind the scenes? ¡®But based on the current situation, it seems like his original work is a giarism of Samantha¡¯s piece,¡¯ were their thoughts. ¡°Since you won''t admit it, I''ll make you concede.¡± Cassandra turned to Marcus and said, ¡°Mr. Sullivan, please have the music association send over the score they''ve preserved for this piece.¡± ¡°Don''t worry. I¡¯ve already arranged it. It''ll be delivered shortly.¡± ¡°Cassandra, must you do this? You''ll ruin Yohan,¡± said Yulissa. ¡®Why can¡¯t she just shut up?¡¯ thought Cassandra in annoyance. 2/5 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You D 12:40 Tue, 20 Feb Chapter 64 She couldn¡¯t recall whether the Yates family attended the concert in the previous life or not. Nheless, it was good that they¡¯de, as she could deal with them all at once. As for Yulissa, she only came because Leonardo thought that too many things had happened back home and felt sorry for everything she had gone through. Hence, he contacted Yohannes and told their mother to bring Yulissa along for a change of scenery and to watch thepetition. Little did they expect such a turn of events. Cassandra confronted Yulissa with an air of superiority, meeting thetter''s eyes head- on. ¡°You''re the one who''s gonna ruin him, not me. You gave him this music score, right? Then, is this piece your original work?¡± For some reason, Yulissa felt a hint of panic. ¡°Of course, | wrote it. Who else could it be?¡± Yulissa had found this music score after rummaging through Cassandra¡¯s storeroom. After doing thorough searches to confirm that there were no other backups, she took it, studied it extensively, and altered the signature before giving it to Yohannes. Never in her wildest dreams did she imagine Cassandra would show up at hispetition venue. What if this music score is written by that damned Cassandra?¡¯ Yulissa brooded. The paper of the original music score had yellowed. Had she presented a new one to Yohannes, suspicions would certainly arise, for it wouldn¡¯t align with her exnation that she¡¯d meticulously prepared it for a year. ¡°Yulissa, did you really think no one would notice that you sneaked into my room while | was out and took the music score? At that time, | let it go, thinking you wanted it for Yohannes. Now, however, I¡¯ve regretted it. I¡¯m not even part of the Yates family; why should | cover for a giarist?¡± Yulissa¡¯s entire body trembled with fury when she heard the word ¡°giarist.¡± ¡®What the hell is this darn Cassandra talking about!¡¯ she fumed internally. ¡°Don''t tell me you¡¯re gonna say youposed this piece? Even if it were your creation, what¡¯s wrong with giving it to your own brother?¡± Yulissa didn¡¯t see it as a big deal at all. 3/5 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A 12:41 Tue, 20 Feb Chapter 64 ti G Moreover, she even put Cassandra on the spot, implying that since they were all biological siblings, Cassandra shouldn''t be so ungenerous with a mere music score. This would make Cassandra look like she was making a mountain out of a molehill. ¡°You took someone else¡¯s hard work, Yulissa Yates! Even if it¡¯s a draft that¡¯s thrown away, it still belongs to someone else. You people are truly as shameless as ever!¡± sneered Cassandra. ¡°Watch your words, Cassandra! Apologize to your sister!¡± Miranda couldn''t sit still anymore. Now that the me was being shifted onto Yulissa, she had to step in. ¡°Security, escort her out!¡± Marcus ordered for people to take Miranda away. ¡®What a shrew!¡¯ he remarked on the inside. ¡°Cassandra, are you really just going to stand there and watch our mom get mistreated?¡± Yulissa asked in disbelief. ¡°Just to rify, that¡¯s your and Yohannes¡¯ mom, not mine. I, Cassandra Yates, do not have a mother. All | have is a grandma named Blossom Yates!¡± Cassandra naturally couldn¡¯t be bothered about whether Miranda would be taken away or how Miranda would be treated. After all, she wasn¡¯t done dealing with Yohannes¡¯ matter yet. ¡°Why do you always have topete with me? If you like this piece, I''ll dlypose a special one just for you. Why must you fight with me over who created it and fight Yohan for the score? Don¡¯t you know how important this is to him?¡± Yulissa burst into tears, giving everyone the sense that she was heartbroken, incapable of persuading a stubborn, rebellious person. ¡°Yulissa, when you gave away my music score, did you ever consider that you and your brother won''t just be suspected of giarism but also outright theft?¡± ¡°Cassandra, enough with your nder! This piece wasposed by Lisa. How did it suddenly be yours? Don¡¯t tell me you''re going to im to be Samantha next! Hurry up and get lost from Samantha¡¯s seat.

Now, you''re telling me that Samantha is a cute, youngdy?¡± ¡°| don¡¯t think this is true. It doesn¡¯t make sense!¡± ¡°Mr. Sullivan had said it in person, so how could it be fake?¡± While everyone was discussing loudly among themselves, a staff member came over from the other side. ¡°Mr. Sullivan, here is the thing you had asked for.¡± It was the first and final draft of music scores, which was kept in the music association. The song was about longing and yearning for family affection. Marcus said, ¡°Yohannes and Ms. Yulissa Yates, since both of you insist that the music is your original work, can you look at what these are?¡± The camera on the scene had cut to Marcus and the disy box in front of him. There was a date of the initial and the final draft indicated respectively on the scores, in which the initial draft date was five years ago and the final draftst year. Cassandra had revised the score but was dissatisfied with plenty of versions during the revision. The theme of the first draft was about desperation. At that time, not long after Blossom died, to Cassandra, her life was ina downfall. 1/6 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You 4 Tue, 20 Feb Chapter 65 +5 With that desperation in her mind, sheposed the piece, with no one touching it since. However, she revised itst year, changing the theme from losing hope to seeing the light, as well as the family affection she longed for. When Yohannes and Yulissa saw the two drafts, their expression instantly turned pale. They thought, ¡®How could this happen? How could the draft we have belong to Samantha''s?¡± Yulissa said, ¡°No, it can¡¯t be. | took this score from Cassandra¡¯s room. How could it be Samantha¡¯s? How could Cassandra be Samantha?¡± She thought, ¡®Cassandra is an uneducated and vulgar country girl whose parents don¡¯t love her, so how could she be Samantha? Samantha is Yohannes''¡¯ idol!¡¯ Yulissa suddenly felt that Cassandra might be a liar and that she would not be the real Samantha. ¡°Do you have any evidence to prove that you are Samantha? It won''t be enough with just Mr. Sullivan¡¯s proving that you are her!¡± Yulissa was getting more and more determined with her own thoughts. However, Yohannes, on the other hand, felt that his dream had been shattered. When Marcus took out the two drafts, Yohannes immediately knew that what Yulissa gave him was not the original one. He had been victimized badly by Yulissa. It was his dream to step on Camille¡¯s stage, win the championship, and be Samantha¡¯s apprentice. But now, Samantha had be his most despised younger sister, who had made him feel ashamed like this. It was impossible for him to ept such a truth. Yulissa¡¯s words brought Yohannes back to reality. He thought, ¡®Yulissa¡¯s right! Does Cassandra say that her being Samantha makes her Samantha? Who will believe her if there¡¯s no evidence?¡¯ The audience also said with suspicion, ¡°She¡¯s right. There must be evidence to prove it!¡± ¡°That¡¯s true.

Cassandra replied, ¡°If you want proof, what proof do you want? Let me show you. I''ll give you all a chance to request anything.¡± Cassandra¡¯s confident demeanor made Yulissa a little nervous. A female audience shouted from below the stage, ¡°Samantha has an official Twitter ount. Use that ount to post a tweet of ¡®Hello, Yelena Ziegler.¡± She wanted Cassandra to post a tweet about greeting her and mentioning her name. Instead of responding directly, Cassandra took out her phone and tapped on the screen. The process was a little hasty as she forgot the password of Samantha¡¯s ount, so she had to change it. Cassandra said, ¡°You can check it on Twitter now.¡±- The female audience opened her Twitter suspiciously and checked on Samantha¡¯s homepage, where a tweet showed: [Hello, Yelena Ziegler.] The female audience was utterly shocked. ¡°Oh my goodness! She¡¯s really Samantha. She has Samantha¡¯s ount.¡± ¡°It''s not a big deal. Maybe she¡¯s Samantha¡¯s operation staff!¡± Another audience retorted, ¡°Samantha¡¯s most famous piece is ¡®Reborn.¡¯ y it, and I''ll believe you then!¡± The piece named ¡°Reborn¡± was the goal pursued and direction of efforts for all musicians in the present day. It was because no one but Samantha herself could y the original version of ¡°Reborn¡± sessfully. The adaptation of the piece was what was more popr now. Yulissa thought that Cassandra¡¯s lies would definitely be exposed. Yohannes had been practicing the piece named Reborn for many years but failed, so he gave up in the end helplessly and practiced the adaptation instead. ¡°Prepare a piano on the stage.¡± The request from Cassandra was like a confrontation to the challenge. After the piece was finished, the entire ce fell into an eerie silence, and no one responded for a long time.

Yohannes closed his eyes in despair. ¡®She¡¯s really Samantha!¡¯ ¡°What other proof do you all still want from me?¡± Cassandra asked indifferently. ¡°| heard that you have an exclusive customized medal of Camille, which is the only one that exists in the entire world. Ms. Jenkins, | wonder if you could let us have a look at it?¡± The request was proposed by Yulissa. There was only one medal of that kind in the world. She thought that even if Cassandra wanted to fake it, she could not possibly do it. Therefore, Yulissa believed it could reveal Cassandra¡¯s true colors. Instead, what she witnessed was Cassandra simply taking out a medal with a musical note as the base and engraved with the names of ¡°Samantha Jenkins¡± and ¡°Cassandra Yates¡± from her pocket. Cassandra thought, ¡®She really refuses to be convinced until facing a grim reality. How could she forget that this is the best convincing proof?¡¯ The name ¡°Cassandra Yates¡± on the medal was particrly dazzling. The organizer sent someone to check on the item, and it was proved that the medal was real. Since the matter hade to this point, Yohannes had to admit that it was the biggest blow for him. However, he could not destroy his music career in such a way. Now that Samantha was his younger sister, he thought that he could get prior ess to any of her music scores in the future. 4/6 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A 12:41 Tue, 20 Feb Chapter 65 ti He said, ¡°I¡¯m sorry, everyone.

You asked someone to throw Mom out just now, so go apologize to her right now!¡± Cassandra was rendered speechless. She wondered if Yohannes had been out of his mind. She said, ¡°Yohannes, | haven''t held you ountable yet. Are you trying to order me around now?¡± Yohannes turned furious but could not vent his anger too much. ¡°We are siblings. Even if Lisa took your music score, it was not really a big deal. You are so insensible for insisting on making a fuss of it and making everyone know about it!¡± Upon hearing the outburst, Marcus almost turned livid, wanting to hit Yohannes. Cassandra said, ¡°Siblings? Mr. Yohannes Yates, don¡¯t you know that | have severed the rtionship with the Yates family? The family has already issued a statement about it, so it¡¯s better for you two to think about the exnation to the police about your giarism!¡± Marcus then added, ¡°Besides, Yohannes seriously vited the music philosophy. He giarized and stole others¡¯ music achievements in private, causing immeasurable losses to others. Therefore, the music association in Spaunia will take the lead in banning Yohannes Yates from the music industry, terminating all his music performance activities, andstly, permanently disqualifying him from thepetition.¡± Every single word of Marcus¡¯ powerful and resonant deration shattered Yohannes¡¯ heart. 5/6 Chapter 66 Chapter 66 Cassandra smiled and thought, ¡®There will be nothing more devastating than this.¡¯ However, she did not think it was enough. Those people were self-righteous and self-centered as they still med her openly without shame, even if they had already realized it was their own problem. She reckoned that in Yohannes¡¯ mind, there might already be a deviation. Samantha was his younger sister, and just based on this alone, Samantha could bring great glory to Yohannes¡® music career. That was why Yohannes said mercifully that they were all family and asked Cassandra not to hold anything against the family. However, he did not expect that Marcus would directly ban him from the industry, and he wondered what his future would be since he was only 22 years old and would have no future after being banned. He tried to exin, ¡°Mr. Sullivan, Mr. Sullivan, | didn¡¯t giarize! The score is written by my sister. My sister is Samantha, so there are no such charges that exist.¡± He regretted everything now, thinking that he should have been nicer to Cassandra in the past. That way, he would have be the most influential person in the industry.Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org. now. However, in the current state, he was like a public enemy, receiving everybody''s criticism. Marcus looked disdainful, as he had never seen such a shameless person before. ¡°Indeed, Samantha wrote this music score, but the copyright is not hers.¡± Marcus¡¯ words made Yohannes feel as if he had fallen into an abyss. Only then did Yulissa realize that she seemed to be in trouble. The fact that she took the score from Cassandra¡¯s room became indisputable, and both the original and final versions of the music were in the music association, making her insistence on the originality a joke. Cassandra watched them with a gloating expression. Looking at their suffering, she felt very delighted in her mind, but it was still not enough.

So, not only did you giarize the score, but you also infringed upon it. As for whether the music association will press the matter further, it depends on Mr. Sullivan¡¯s mood. About the pursuit from me, I¡¯m sure Samantha¡¯s fans will answer it on my behalf.¡± What Samantha had implied was that she would listen to her fans¡® requests. As long as they wanted a suing, Yohannes would be sued. However, if they decided not to, Cassandra could choose not to have those people as her fans. She did not need a group of fans who would persuade her to forgive others.

Although he was 40 years old, if he had been more frivolous when he was younger, he might already have had a daughter as big as Cassandra. Therefore, he always treated Cassandra as his own daughter. He looked at family members of the Yates family, the family that Cassandra had longed for such a long time. Marcus remembered that when Cassandra first found out about her family, she was very happy to share the news with him, saying that in the future, she would have a family to love her, feeling warm upon meeting her family.

Most of them did note for the contestants. It was only when they heard that Samantha was going to be present today that they came here actively. Now, Samantha had left, but the audience had not interacted with her yet, thinking that they could not just leave like this because it would be a regret to them without an interaction with their idol.

All the other sectors were continuing to thrive, having memorable impressions or logos, but only the clothing market was forgotten by everyone. 3/5 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A Tue, 20 Feb 5 ti 64% 5 Chapter 67 Cassandra remained silent. She asked, ¡°Don¡¯t we have chief designers? Why can¡¯t they design what you want?¡± Although the current market was dominated by young people, not only did thepany have veteran designers who could stabilize the market, but there were also young designers with emerging talent among the chief designers. If Cassandra remembered correctly, the chief designer of the clothing sector was poached from Dowsome Design, so she could not believe that the designer could not give out satisfying works. Timothy replied, ¡°The design is also very fashionable, but ording to our market research, it¡¯s just an ordinary piece of clothing. People will buy it as a momentary novelty. Yet, the clothes will be stored away after being worn less than twice, which will not help the brand¡¯s reputation!¡± He thought, ¡®Why would |e to her otherwise if not for this matter? Cassandra tapped her fingers on the table, pondering. Timothy said, ¡°ine, this is also yourpany. You can¡¯t leave it alone.¡± Cassandra replied hesitantly, ¡°I... | still have to take the SAT.¡± Timothy turned utterly confused as he thought, ¡®What did | hear? What did she say? SAT? Did you buy those certificates you owned?* He said, ¡°You... You want to take the SAT?¡± He screamed in his mind, ¡®Are you kidding me?¡¯ ¡°Yeah,¡± replied Cassandra. Timothy was getting triggered by that reply. ¡®She¡¯s a big shot! Why waste her time on such a thing?¡¯ He asked in disbelief, ¡°Why are you wasting your time on this? You''re a big shot, and you want to go back to take the SAT?¡± Cassandra shrugged indifferently. ¡°| have my own reasons, so even if you want me toe up with some designs, you have to wait until after the SAT ends.¡± Some of the shareholders in Modern Beacon Synergy were locals in Spaunia, so they did not know much about the meaning of Clusia¡¯s SAT. 4/5 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A 12:41 Tue, 20 Feb Chapter 67 ti 64% ¡°How long will it take? Six months? Or a year?¡± one of the shareholders asked directly. ¡°The SAT will be held in June. So | will give you the designs in August,¡± Cassandra replied. She thought, ¡®Oh, | should have set the date before the school starts.¡¯ It did not matter whether Cassandra went to attend university. However, it was worth looking forward to seeing Yulissa have a breakdown. 5/5 Chapter 68 Chapter 68 Q 64%1 +5 When Yohannes finally found Cassandra''s address by putting in his connections, he did not expect Cassandra to stay in sucha fine hotel. The family walked to the front desk and asked the receptionist politely, ¡°Hello, is there someone named Cassandra Yates living in this hotel?¡± The receptionist nodded slightly and replied politely, ¡°I''m sorry, but due to customer privacy, we cannot disclose any customer¡¯s information. We apologize for any inconvenience we might cause you. | hope you can understand.¡± ¡°She¡¯s my younger sister. Just tell me which room she lives in. Rest assured; | won¡¯t make things difficult for you,¡± Yohannes said politely, but his tone implied that he would not back down at all. He had to see Cassandra, or else his career would be ruined. ¡°In that case...¡± The receptionist paused. ¡°You can give her a call then.¡± Anyway, the staff had a rule against disclosing customer information without permission. If the matter were to be pursued, the staff could not bear the responsibility. Yulissa said, ¡°Miss, she¡¯s my elder sister. She had a little conflict with us and ran away from home. We wanted to find her, but she didn¡¯t want to see us. Could you please help us check which floor she is on?¡± Yulissa¡¯s words made the receptionist hesitate. She thought, ¡®Is the customer really running away from home? But aren¡¯t all the people living on that floor the staff of Camille International Music Competition? Strangers are not allowed to go up there!¡¯ She then replied, ¡°I¡¯m sorry, but this is the customer¡¯s privacy. We cannot reveal that information to you.¡± In the end, the receptionist stuck to her professional ethic. ¡°You...¡± Yulissa did not expect the receptionist to be so disrespectful.Content rights by N?velDr//ama.Org. However, she still handed a gift box to the receptionist with a good temper. ¡°Please do me a favor, miss.¡± The receptionist did not even take a nce at the gift box but called the security guard through the walkie-talkie instead, ¡°Guard, there are three people making trouble here. Please bring them out immediately.¡± Miranda got anxious. ¡°What is the meaning of this? It¡¯s fine that you don¡¯t want to tell 4/4 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A 12:42 Tue, 20 Feb Chapter 68 ti Bug, 64 me where Cassandra is, but how dare you call the security guard to chase us out! Where¡¯s your manager? Let your manager out here and meet me!¡± The receptionist replied calmly, ¡°Madam, we¡¯re at Spaunia. We don¡¯t have any custom of Clusia here. This hotel has surveince coverage at every angle of the ce. If | ept this gift, | will get a loss greater than the amount of this gift. Why should | ept it?¡± This was the only six¡ªstar hotel in Spaunia with very high welfare benefits, so no staff would want to ruin their good future for a petty profit. Then, along with the security guard, Cassandra also came in as she had nned to return to the hotel after finishing her business. She recalled that Keh seemed to mention that they would have dinner at night. When Miranda saw Cassandraing in, she ran to her immediately. ¡°Cassandra, you damn brat! Where in the world have you been? Why did you juste back now?¡± With Miranda¡¯s immediate questioning aftering up to her, Cassandra turned very annoyed, so she responded unhappily, ¡°This is where | live. What are you all doing here?¡± Miranda shouted, ¡°You damn brat! How dare you harm Yohannes like this? Are you even taking me seriously? You must apologize to me!¡± After hearing Miranda¡¯s words, Cassandra felt that her n to perish the Yates family must be put on the agenda. She could not let them cause trouble before her anymore. Cassandra said, ¡°Mrs. Yates, after breaking off the parent-child rtionship with me, we should treat each other like the other is dead and not interfere with each other. Why do you alwayse to me every time something happens to your family?¡± She thought, ¡®They¡¯re so ridiculous.¡¯ Miranda shouted, ¡°What are you talking about? I¡¯m your mother. We can never sever our rtionship in our entire life. Stop talking about breaking off a rtionship!¡± To be honest, she regretted asking Benjamin to issue the rtionship sever statement. Now that she learned that Cassandra was both ine and Samantha, any one of her reputations could make the Yates family even more sessful. However, she med Cassandra for this, as she used thetter of not wanting to make her identity clear in advance. Now that so many misunderstandings happened, Miranda could care less about the Yates family. 2/4 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You L 3/4 12:42 Tue, 20 Feb Chapter 68 Cassandra said, ¡°Seriously, if all of you have all the good and bad things in the world, what need is there for justice? If you¡¯re here just to say such nonsense, please leave.¡± The security guard was here anyway, so the nonsensical people could be taken out. Yohannes interrupted, ¡°Cassandra, I¡¯m here to apologize to you. Mr. Sullivan said he would not ban me only if he obtained your permission not to...¡± Cassandra remained silent. She thought, ¡®If someone asked what speechlessness is, my reaction would be that.¡¯ ¡°Mr. Yates, is that your way of apologizing with that kind of attitude? | really have noment for it,¡± said Cassandra. She thought, ¡®Just a sentence of ¡°I¡¯m here to apologize to you¡°? He considers that an apology?* ¡°What else do you want?¡± Yohannes did not want to bow to his younger sister. He just could not do so. ¡°| don¡¯t want anything. | just want you to get the punishment you deserve.¡± She then thought, ¡®If an apology is gonna solve everything, why do we even need the police?* Yohannes suggested, ¡°Cassandra, let''s be reasonable. How about this? If you call Mr. Sullivan to deal with my affairs, | will ask Dad and Mom to take you home personally and let you be the eldest daughter of the Yates family.¡± He thought that the stated condition was already considered very tempting for Cassandra, as she wanted to attract their parents¡® attention anyway, so it would be an honor if they took her home in person. 04% 35) ¡®Fight fire with fire, so what should | do to deal with naive people? A naive person like Yohannes is really stupid. After having the thought, Cassandra replied, ¡°Mr. Yates, if you haven''t had the chance to ess the inte, why don¡¯t you go online and check out what everyone is discussing before you suggest anything? In other words, is the Yates family full of gold? With my status as Samantha, do you think your family is worth my time?¡± Yohannes stared at Cassandra with widened eyes. He thought, ¡®What¡¯s wrong with her? Why would she say such things? Isn¡¯t she...¡® ¡°You all don¡¯t have to waste your energy on me. You should bear the responsibility if you do something wrong. It''s animal behavior to evade responsibility. | will definitely These Automation Tools Might Surprise You 7 12:42 Tue, 20 Feb Cipher 68 10 A hold you and Yulissa ountable! Cassandra ignored them and walked past them to the front desk She told the receptionist, Please record this down. If these three people or anyone from the Yates familye to me in the future, no need to ask for me at all. Just let the security guards take them away!¡± ¡°Cassandra, are you still human? Yohannes is only 22 years old. Can you bear to see his future getting ruined like this?¡± Miranda¡¯s voice resonated throughout the hall, attracting attention. Cassandra countered, ¡°Did | let him giarize the music score? Did | give it to him? Did | let him use it in thepetition? Didn¡¯t Marcus give him a chance? Yohannes insisted that the score was his original work. He insisted on trusting that idiot Yulissa and would believe whatever she said. Now you¡¯re saying | ruined him. Mrs. Yates, don¡¯t you think you are hrious? Who do you think caused him to end up in such a state? It was all because of Yulissa. Did you ask what she was looking for when she went to my room? Why did she take the score away? Why did she want to give it to Yohannes? Did she ask for my opinion when she gave it to him?¡± She continued, ¡°When something has gone wrong now, you want me to forgive all of you. Do you think I¡¯m a saint to serve your family personally? Let''s take a step back and consider the matter. Even if I¡¯m not Samantha, the piece and music score don¡¯t belong to Yohannes or Yulissa. Yohannes yed it in public and even marked it as his original work Yet, when you all find out the truth afterward, you want me to give you the copyright. Do you think it¡¯s even possible?¡± ¡°If | hadn¡¯t had Samantha¡¯s status, you might have squeezed me to death here, right? So, don¡¯t you pretend to have a deep mother¡ªdaughter and sibling bond right before me. It¡¯s just disgusting!¡± she finally shouted. & Chapter 69 Chapter 69 3 35) The behavior of the people from the Yates family was truly disgusting. Even if they knew what they had done was wrong, their attitude was still very arrogant. Cassandra wondered if they really still thought of her as the fool who had just returned to the Yates family back then. The family took everything for granted. Even if they knew it was Yulissa¡¯s fault, they could still me Cassandra for the cause of the issue. Cassandra thought they were a bunch of insane people. If it had not been for the fact that one should not believe in fictional things, she nearly suspected what type of creature Yulissa had transformed from that made the Yates family love her this much without boundaries. They loved her so much that they lost their principles. Cassandra returned to her room with her face looking a little gloomy. After pondering about something, she had her expression darkened. The Yates family never learned their lessons. Cassandra wondered what kind of delusion they had received that they could stand on a moral high ground and bestow their favor on their own family members. In her previous life, it was because of this attitude that her life was ruined. She thought, ¡®Do they think | will continue to go the same way in this life again?¡± Knock! Knock! Cassandra¡¯s thoughts were pulled back to reality. She instantly concealed the emotions shown on her face and reced them with indifference. When she opened the door, she did not expect to see Keh standing at the entrance. ¡°Mr. Zelinski, anything | can help you with?¡± Cassandra asked. Keh looked at the young girl, who looked more indifferent than ever. He could not help feeling distressed for her and asked with a rare gentleness in his tone, ¡°Are you upset?¡± Cassandra was stunned, wondering how Keh could figure out that she was upset. ¡°I''m not,¡± she replied shortly. Keh did not ask further but replied softly instead, ¡°Are you free? Let me take you to 1/15 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A 12:42 Tue, 20 Feb Chapter 69 get some specialty cuisine in Spaunia.¡± +5 Cassandra felt silent because she had been to Spaunia many times and had eaten almost all the delicacies here. However, she did not know why she nodded and agreed to go despite being a little upset. Keh smiled slightly, and his expression turned brighter, just like frost being melted away by the spring breeze. Without the Yates family to disturb her, Cassandra felt quitefortable going out. The most specialty food street in Spaunia was a ce visited only by locals, which had the best food one could find there. Those food streets that were filled with amercial atmosphere and for taking photos and check-ins were toomercialized. Cassandra did not like them, but those were not the ces Keh wanted to take her to either. The foot street Keh had brought Cassandra to have a quiet neighborhood, but was full of life. Not only did it have the local characteristics of Spaunia, but several unique Clusian restaurants were located there too. ¡°What do you want to eat?¡± Keh asked. Yannick and Kayden both mentioned that whenever a girl was unhappy, apart from wanting jewelry, handbags, and money, she might just want to eat a big meal to vent her emotions. Maybe having a dessert might boost her mood, too. However, Keh had only eaten two meals with Cassandra. Dishes he could eat were served the first time, and food during the second time was prepared by Yannick ording to what he could eat, so he did not know what Cassandra preferred to eat at all. Therefore, he just brought her to the food street so she could eat whatever she wanted. The only good thing about Spaunia was that every shop epted credit cards. With that, Keh would let Cassandra enjoy her meal without any worries. Cassandra also did not hesitate to get any food, as she thought it was Keh¡¯s treat anyway. Keh had so much money, so she did not have to worry about spending too much. After all, Keh had spent 2 billion dors on the consultation fees and 600 million dors for a telegraph nt. 2/5 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You L 1242 Tue, 20 Fe Chapter 69 A Hence, Cassandra went through a lot of shops and bought halloumi cheese, khinkali, dolma, and pljeskavica ording to her preferences. She had also bought meat and some main dishes. There was a long table with 65 feet on the food street for the guests to eat. Cassandra ced all the delicacies together contentedly and devoured them happily. It was as if the gloominess caused by the Yates family had been swept away. ¡°You like all of these dishes?¡± Keh asked. If Cassandra liked the food, he could hire those chefs to go to Pinehart Mansion and cook good food for her alone in the future. ¡°Quite. Aren¡¯t they specialties? | just bought them to try the taste. Cassandra did not seem to have any favorite dishes. It did not matter who made it, and even if it was homemade by herself, there was nothing special about the dishes. As long as the food was edible, it would be good for her. ¡°Do you have any favorite dishes?¡± Keh asked. Cassandra was stunned, as if she had never thought about this question. ¡°No.¡± It was not a lie because she really did not have one. Keh smiled faintly and took out a small cake from behind him. ¡°Here. Have some after-meal dessert.¡± It was just an ordinary cake that could be bought everywhere, but Cassandra wondered why she felt warm in her heart. She took the cake and ced it in front of her, staring at it in a daze. ¡°Thank you.¡± Keh cursed in his mind, ¡®Cassie¡¯s such a simple girl who''s easy to satisfy, so why did the Yates family treat her like that? That family deserves to rot in hell! He then felt confused as he thought again, ¡®But why are the people from Modern Beacon Synergy buying Yates Group¡¯s shares recently? If | remember correctly, Timothy had nothing to do with the Yates family. Could it be that he has something to do with Cassie?" ¡°Why did you invite me to eat?¡± Cassandra asked. In addition to Keh¡¯sbel of violence and cold¡ªbloodedness, it was said that he had 3/5 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You 12:42 Tue 20 866 Chyrer o A a sechaded lifestyle. It was also rumored that the Zelinski family¡¯s diet every day had the freshest food, and even a lot of ingredients had to be airlifted to the family on that single day. The highest standard of their meals seemed to cost a few hundred thousand dors One meal would cost a house in a tier¡ªone city, even in a ce like Five Ring in Dricso However, at the current moment. Keh brought Cassandra to the food street to enjoy specialty food sold there, which cost no more than 80 dors at most. Cassandra wondered if a man who had a secluded lifestyle like Keh wanted to visit this kind of ce to have a try at some food eaten by normal citizens No special reason. It¡¯s just that | saw you being upset. After hearing that food can make people forget their worries | decided to bring you here. Based on your mood now, at least it proves that my decision is right. Keh smiled faintly. When he was facing Cassandra, he did not act superior at all, even giving off a veryfortable feeling ¡°What decision? Cassandra asked. Keh replied. ¡°The decision to take you out for food! Cassandra remained quiet. She felt like her brain was out of function. After hanging around outside until ten o¡¯clock at night, Keh took Cassandra back to the hotel for a rest. Now that Cassandra was relieved from her emotions, she would forget about the unpleasantness when she got up tomorrow after a good night''s sleep. Just as they were on their way back. Keh found something was amiss when he was driving. He realized that there was a car following them. The car must have not long since they caught up to them because Keh only just passed an intersection. It seemed like the car followed them at that very moment. Cassandra reacted agilely and asked. ¡°Is someone tailing behind us?¡± Keh was stunned and said admiringly with a smile. ¡°Cassie, you are very vignt!¡± ¡°Who is it?¡± Cassandra asked again.N?velDrama.Org: owner of this content. She thought it was not someone she knew anyway, since no one in the world wanted to harm her except the Yates family. 45 These Automation Tools Might Surprise Yo A 12:42 Tue, 20 Feb Chapter 69 ¡°Are you afraid?¡± Keh med himself for bringing trouble to Cassandra. ¡°What''s the point of saying that now? The trouble hase to us. How can we deal with the enemies?¡± Although Cassandra¡¯s combat skills were not weak, she could not fight with opponents equipped with guns. They could shoot from a distance, and she could not fight them back in closebat. She felt a little inconvenienced being unarmed. Cassandra had forgotten that she was not in Clusia. Guns were allowed where she was now. ¡°Open the storage box in front of you. There are tools in it,¡± said Keh. Cassandra did not react in panic at all when facing the criminals in the cars behind them, which surprised Keh very much. He thought that she really gave him surprises every day. Chapter 70 Chapter 70 In the city at night, every road was crowded. The traffic in Acocester of Spania had always been horrible. Keh wanted to drive his car onto the expressway. Otherwise, it wouldn''t work there As soon as he got on the expressway, Cassandra was loading the gun beside him when the attack started from behind Bang Bang She rolled down the window and shot at the front tire of a car. The tire went t, and the car was forced to stop. Cassandra frowned. She had just counted. There were 20 bullets. Now that she had used one, only 19 left. Taking the five cars behind them as five people, the bullets were not enough She found microbombs, but they were just some simple self-defense weapons, only suitable for close-range bombing and escape. ¡°Mr. Zelinski, as a global boss, why is your weapon so shabby?¡± She was still in the mood to chat with Keh when the people behind were continuously shooting at them. That was not a modified car, so the safety performance was not high. Therefore, Keh could only drive in S curves to confuse the opponents in order to dodge the attack from behind. However, only one car had a t tire, while the other four already caught up with them side by side. The bullets hit the car with a tinkling sound, like the sound of death, close to their ears. Keh immediately stepped on the gas pedal and drove at the maximum speed. racing all the way. Five cars were chasing each other on the expressway. Fortunately, Yannick had prepared the car for Keh to pursue women, so he temporarily picked one with excellent performance and strong horsepower. Keh only knew that he couldn¡¯t fight at that time. Bullets had no eyes. If Cassandra was hurt, he might go crazy.

However, Cassandra didn¡¯t think so. She felt it hadn¡¯t been that exciting for a long time. Thus, she stuck out her head and gave one of the cars another t tire. While driving, Keh did not forget to praise her, ¡°Cassie, your shooting skills are good.¡± ¡°It''s not too bad.¡± Cassandra estimated the distance with those cars and checked Keh¡¯s remaining weapons. Then, she had an idea. ¡°Slow down a little bit and let them catch up. I''ll throw this into their cars.¡± The microbomb would explode in 20 seconds once set off. It could y a very subtle role as long as the timing was calcted correctly. After all, that type of microbomb was powerful. ¡°It''s too dangerous. | object,¡± Keh refused without hesitation. If it were Yannick and the others in the car with him, they would have confronted the opponents head¡ªon. However, the one in his car now was the most precious treasure in his life. He could not afford anything to go wrong. Although that idea was good, he would not let Cassandra take the risk. ¡°I''m confident. Trust me.¡± Cassandra was a little annoyed that he didn¡¯t believe her. ¡°It¡¯s not that | don¡¯t trust you. It¡¯s just too dangerous. | don¡¯t want you to get hurt.¡± Cassandra was stunned. There was some inexplicable feeling in her heart, which disappeared quickly before it even emerged. ¡°| won''t get hurt. We will first slow down the car. When they attack us from both sides, you and | will throw the microbomb at the right time. Then, we will elerate and evacuate.¡± The two cars with punctured tires didn¡¯t catch up. They only needed to deal with the people in those three cars. There would be no need to wait for others toe to their rescue. They could save themselves. ¡°Are you sure you want to do that?¡± Keh asked. ¡°Yes, I¡¯m sure.¡± 2/5 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A Tue, Chapter 70 ¡°Okay.¡± 63%1 35) He decided to apany her.

Before they could even react, Keh sped up and ran away. Boom! Two cars blew up. Looking at the two explosions behind them, Cassandra smiled triumphantly. ¡°Look, | told you | could do it.¡± ¡°There is one car left. How are you going to settle it?¡± If she was not wrong, the two cars with t tires had caught up. In that case, they had to deal with more than just one car of people. ¡°| can¡¯t think of anything yet. You keep a constant speed for now, and | will blow their tires first to buy us some time.¡± The rescue hadn''te yet. She had to save the limited weapons. 4 However, Keh didn¡¯t immediately agree with her method. Instead, he asked, ¡°Can you drive?¡± Although Keh knew she was good at racing, he didn¡¯t know if she could drive. ¡°Yes.¡± ¡°You drive, and I''ll take care of those people.¡± The two exchanged seats as fast as they could. Cassandra kept the car running at a constant speed while keeping an eye on the cars on their tail through the rearview mirror. Bang! Bang! Bang! 3/5 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A 12:43 Tue, 20 Feb Chapter 70 Three shots were fired. Keh blew out the tires of three cars in less than two seconds. Before she could react, another three shots resounded. Cassandra couldn''t help reminding, ¡°Save your bullets. There aren¡¯t many left.¡± She looked in the rearview mirror, only to see those three cars had stopped moving, and nobody got out. She eximed inwardly, ¡®What the fuck! Is he still a human?¡® Keh fired three shots in a row and settled three people. Whether they were dead or not, their time wasThis belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org. wasted. Cassandra stepped on the gas pedal and drove forward at full speed as if she was racing. She made a turn at the fork ahead and drove onto the main road in the city. At that moment, Keh¡¯s phone rang. ¡°Mr. Zelinski, are you all right?¡± ¡°| won''t be by the time youe to my rescue.¡± Yannick was dumbfounded. ¡°We''ve brought our men to the expressway. Those people have been subdued.¡± When Cassandra heard that, she thought they were not too slow and did a good job. ¡°Take them back and interrogate them overnight to find out who sent them.¡± Keh hung up the phone and looked at Cassandra with interest. ¡°You seem to be interested in that kind of scenario?¡± Cassandra¡¯s heart skipped a beat. She thought, ¡®Oh no! Am | exposed?¡® ¡°Perhaps every woman has a dream to be a heroine?¡± Keh was rendered speechless. ¡°Regarding what happened this evening, did you offend anyone?¡± Cassandra was quite curious about who would send five cars to pursue Keh. They had to have deep grudges. ¡°Maybe it¡¯s about business territory or profit.¡± Keh changed the topic. ¡°Are you frightened?¡± Cassandra lightly tapped the steering wheel with her left hand. She smiled evilly and 4/5 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A 5/5 12:43 Tue, 20 Feb Chapter 70 said, ¡°What do you think?¡± ¡®| don¡¯t think you''re scared at all.

I''ll take care of the rest.¡± Cassandra wanted to say, ¡°Of course, this is your business. They¡¯reing for you.¡± But she didn¡¯t. ¡°You, too. Just leave the interrogation to Yannick.¡°¡ª Although she didn¡¯t know which force Keh belonged to, she at least knew that he was a member of the country¡¯s forces. Thus, his safety was important. ¡°Are you worried about me?¡± Keh was inexplicably in a good mood, feeling thrilled. ¡®Is she caring about me?¡® he wondered. Cassandra was dazed. ¡°You can say so. After all, you are one of my few diningpanions.¡± Keh couldn¡¯t help feeling a little disappointed. It turned out that she only treated him as a diningpanion. However, it didn¡¯t matter. At least their rtionship had eased. Cassandra had always been respectful yet somewhat distant from him, but she walked with him naturally and even protected him that day. That could be considered small progress. ¡°| will definitely take good care of myself in order to continue being your diningpanion.¡± Keh chuckled in a low voice and said, ¡°Good night.¡± When Keh returned to his room, his face changedpletely, exuding a murderous and cold aura. ¡°Who sent them?¡± Keh was exasperated, and the consequences would be destructive. ¡°They are people from the Zelinski manor,¡± Yannick replied. It seemed that Keh¡¯s stepmother, Harriet Zelinski, had sent the people. After Keh took over thepany, he made the Zelinski family the world¡¯s richest family. Although his father, Hector Zelinski, and his grandfather, Tyler Zelinski, had no 115 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A Chapter 71 problem with it, Harriet was not happy about it. Harriet wanted everything of the Zelinski family to belong to her son, Conrad Zelinski. Seeing Keh and the Zelinski family grow stronger day by day, she couldn¡¯t hide her ambitions anymore. She thought Conrad had grown up and could take over everything in the Zelinski family. However, Tyler didn¡¯t consent. That was probably why she had sent people to kill Keh in Spaunia. After all, if Keh died in a foreignnd as she nned, it would be more justified for Conrad to take over the family. ¡°Conrad is an adult now. He can y with something exciting,¡± Keh said. Since Harriet dared to send people to kill him, he would also send somebody to have a good time with Conrad. ¡°Got it.¡± Yannick couldn''t help shivering. He didn¡¯t understand why he felt a hint of chill on an early summer day in May. ¡°Don''t kill him. You can send over as many people as she has sent us today.¡± Those people who almost got Cassandra into trouble deserved death. When Cassandra woke up, she heard a knock on the door. She opened the door and saw the hotel receptionist. ¡°Ms. Yates, three people are looking for you at the front desk. We are unable to drive them away. Please go downstairs to deal with it.¡± ¡®Three people are looking for me?¡® she wondered. ¡°Are they from the Yates family?¡± ¡°Yes.¡± ¡°What about calling the police?¡± Cassandra frowned slightly. Her peace was disrupted early in the morning. ¡°I''m sorry, we have already called the police, but the olderdy insisted that you were her daughter and that we stopped her from coming to you. It has caused a problem for our hotel. | am very sorry. Pleasee with me to deal with it.¡± The receptionist was troubled.

Just tell us what we can do to make you forgive Yohan.¡± When she was about to continue scolding, Yohannes red at her fiercely, reminding her of their purpose. Marcus had said that as long as Samantha, who was also Cassandra, forgave Yohannes, he would let Yohannes off the hook. ¡°| told you that | don¡¯t have the copyright. Besides, my fans want me to pursue the matter. Your family... has nine people at most. Samantha has 90 million fans.

He hadn''t expected it to go so smoothly. Although he had been insulted, the result was good. Cassandra calmly took out her phone and called Marcus. ¡°Hello, Mr. Sullivan. Yeah, they''vee for me.

Yohannes hadpletely broken down. Without anyone noticing, he copsed on the floor and slowly closed his eyes. Upstairs, outside Keh¡¯s room, Cassandra knocked on the door. Keh¡¯s expression changed, and he became alert when he heard the knock. Yannick, too, grew vignt and asked warily, ¡°Who is it?¡± ¡°It''s me, Cassandra.¡± The murderous look on Keh¡¯s face disappeared at this moment. He then put on a rxed and approachable demeanor.

However, the man Yannick contacted had gone to deal with that person''s beloved son. Keh couldn''t wait to see a good show. He wondered if he could enjoy it with Cassandra. He then thought, ¡®Ah, forget it. I''d better leave a good impression on Cassie. ¡®What if | scared her away?¡¯ ¡°Can | see what happened?¡± Cassandra asked. She was curious to see who was so dumb to mess with him. Perhaps, in the future, she could find a chance to avenge Keh.

He wanted to know Cassandra¡¯s stance toward the Yates family. Cassandra frowned, and her eyebrows twitched unconsciously. She wondered, ¡®Did he just call me Cassie?* ¡°It''llck the fun if the prey dies too easily,¡± Cassandra replied. She wanted to take her revenge slowly. She wanted the Yates family to get a taste of losing theirst hope and panic after they were pushed to the edge of the cliff. By that time, they would try anything in a desperate plight out of anxiety. She wanted to make them feel hopeless on the verge of copse. Just like their seemingly vague ¡°kinship¡± that gave her hope but forced her into the abyss in the end. She swore inwardly, ¡®They have to experience it. ¡°So you do have an idea?¡± Keh asked with interest. ¡°Sort of. You''ll see.¡± Cassandra smiled evilly and met Keh¡¯s shimmering eyes. Soon, she averted her gaze from Keh¡¯s. There was a moment''s silence in the room. Suddenly, Cassandra said, ¡°Mr. Zelinski, have we met each other before?¡± 115 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A Chapter 73 There was no inexplicable kindness out of nowhere, so no one had the duty to be nice. to anyone. Cassandra was not a blockhead and could sense that Keh was kind to her. However, she could not figure out how and where they knew each other. ¡°Till tell you about it in the future,¡± Keh replied. He added inwardly, ¡®Come to me when you recognize me.¡¯ ¡°So, does that mean we do know each other?¡± Cassandra was a little curious about when she met him. ¡°I''m not telling,¡± Keh retorted. Cassandra was rendered speechless. She thought, ¡®Well, | guess we can¡¯t keep the conversation going ¡°Get lost! Get out of here! | don¡¯t want to see any of you!¡± Yohannes shouted. In the condominium, Yohannes was venting his anger. On the brink of copse, he felt that his future was forlorn. ¡°Yohan, don¡¯t be like that. There might still be a favorable turn,¡± Mirandaforted.

Without a second thought, Miranda agreed and knocked through the room Leonardo had prepared for Cassandra with Yulissa¡¯s, renovating into thetter¡¯s. Yulissa also took the opportunity to prepare another room for Cassandra. It turned out to be a storeroom. At that time, Yohannes was unconcerned with Cassandra, so he was not against it. However, with hindsight, he realized Yulissa had ulterior motives when he recalled it at the moment. Yohannes cursed inwardly, ¡®How vicious of her! Yulissa deceived me with her teary eyes and aggrievance expression, making me believe her wholeheartedly with her innocent face. But what do | get in return? Banned by the music association.

Some thoughts, once confirmed, he would regret and want to make up for. He wanted to make up for Cassandra, his biological younger sister, not just because he wanted to please her due to her identity as Samantha, but because it was his sister who he wished to make up for. Miranda looked incredulous and disappointed. ¡°Are you going to kick us out?¡± She thought, ¡®What an ingrate.

Little did she know that Conrad was having a celebratory party at Twilight Bar the night before as he knew that his mother, Harriet, had sent dozens of killers to take Keh¡¯s life and everything in the Zelinski family would be his in the future. So, Conrad celebrated in advance, which showed early signs of his failure in the future if he kept immersed in that state. After having a great time with the beauties, Conrad forgot his vignce and was even clueless about being drugged. When he woke up again, he was sshed with a basin of water. The weather in May was rtively chill at night. So he was woken up by the cold when a basin of cold water was sshed on him. Looking at the 20 to 30 people standing before him, Conrad panicked and said, ¡°Who are you? Do you know who | am? I''ma son of the Zelinski family.

The leader mused, ¡®Mr. Yannick Zelinski mentioned that Mr. Keh Zelinski wanted the video in high definition. ¡°So | must not shoot it with the phone. What if my hands shake, causing it to blur and making him unhappy? After taking the video, he allowed his men to have a rest and resumed in ten minutes. Meanwhile, he returned to the base with the video, exported it, and sent the high- definition video to Yannick through his email. He thought, ¡®I wonder if Mr. Zelinski is satisfied with it" He sent a message to Yannick on WhatsApp: [Mr. Yannick Zelinski, the video has been sent to your mailbox. At present, Conrad''s leg is fractured, and his other leg has a high. chance of fracturing as well. Do you think this is appropriate?] [That''s okay, as long as he¡¯s not dead.] Yannick replied.

Please watch your mouth.¡± Keh¡¯s words kindled Tyler¡¯s anger. ¡°Bastard, how dare you!¡± Tyler scolded. ¡°Besides, I¡¯m just giving Conrad a taste of his own medicine.

I''ll prepare another one for you,¡± Cassandra added. She had some knowledge of medical skills, so she found Keh had insomnia long ago. It did not seem to be that serious before, but it got worse at present. She felt that she could not put it off any longer, so she made an aromatherapy candle the night before.

However, he could not scare Cassandra away as he could not afford to lose her if she ran away from him. ¡°Thank you. | like it very much,¡± Keh responded. He liked it, indeed. In addition to being a gift from the girl he longed for daily, she was the only person who noticed his insomnia without telling her.

Then, the room fell into awkward silence after their conversation ended. Keh was afraid that his enthusiasm would scare Cassandra. Meanwhile, Cassandra wanted to know more about him, but she found that they had very little topic to talk about. She did not have social anxiety, but she indeed was poor at socializing. ¡°You...¡± Keh and Cassandra said simultaneously. ¡°You go first.¡± Keh smiled, making Cassandra dumbfounded. Although she wasn¡¯t obsessed with good-looking men, she had to admit that Keh was the most handsome and charming man she had ever seen. ¡°It''s nothing. Since there¡¯s nothing else, I''ll go ahead. Remember to plug in the diffuser when using that candle. Change it frequently ande back to me after finished using 115 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You 12:44 Tue, 20 Feb j Chapter 75 it.¡± Keh nodded in response to show that he understood. After Cassandra left the room, Yannick nned to take the aromatherapy candle in Keh¡¯s hand and put it away. However, he noticed Keh did not intend to give it to him. Yannick thought it was better not to use such an unidentified thing. ¡°Mr. Zelinski, you can¡¯t use this aromatherapy candle,¡± Yannick suggested bluntly. Although he was happy for Keh to pursue Cassandra, that did not mean he allowed Keh to use the unbranded product given by Cassandra. ¡°Give me a reason,¡± Keh said. He did not raise his eyelids, and his voice was emotionless. Yannick seemed to realize that he had crossed the line. ¡°Mr. Zelinski, if you want to use this aromatherapy candle, let me find someone from the testingboratory to check whether it is safe for usage.¡± Yannick could onlypromise by giving that suggestion. After all, Keh was the nation¡¯s warrior and team leader of Falcon Special Operations Force. Yannick could not lower his guard as he knew Keh had many enemies wanting to harm him. He was determined that those things must be authenticated for Keh¡¯s usage. Keh¡¯s expression darkened, and he lifted his eyelids slightly to look at Yannick. ¡°Are you saying that Cassie will hurt me?¡± Yannick remained silent. He could not make any guarantee, but he knew taking extra precautions was better than anything. ¡°I''ll give you a chance.¡± Keh handed the aromatherapy candle to Yannick and continued, ¡°Take it for appraisal. You have one day on it.¡±Content rights by N?velDr//ama.Org. Keh trusted Cassandra would never hurt him. 2/5 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You L 12:4 Tue, 20 Feb Chapter 73 She would not harm him, even if she could not remember who he was. In the Zelinski family¡¯s private hospital at Drieso of Clusia, Harriet waited anxiously outside the operating room for Conrad after he was found. However, his legs seemed injured, and they had yet to know the test result. Tyler and Hector Zelinski, who was Harriet¡¯s husband and Keh¡¯s father, also arrived at the hospital. Harriet immediately wailed andined, ¡°Darling, Keh is so ruthless. Rad is his younger brother. How could he be cruel toy a hand on him?¡± Harriet had to make Keh pay for it. Even if she could not make a move on him, she had to make him give up his belongings from the Zelinski family. Instead, after she said that, Hector pped her in the face. Harriet¡¯s eyes widened in disbelief. ¡°Why did you hit me?¡± Hector replied coldly. ¡°Do you think | don¡¯t know what you''ve done? Why? You can send killers to Spaunia to take Keh¡¯s life, but you want Dad and me to find justice for you after he takes his revenge on you.¡± Even though Hector did not meddle in the matters that did not mean he was clueless about them. If Harriet dared to make such a move by wanting to take Keh¡¯s life, Keh could not be med for revenge. Hector mused, ¡®But, indeed, he was too ruthless. He wasn¡¯t hurt at all. Why did he want to torture Conrad until half-death?* Harriet was a little flustered. She did not dare to look at Hector. ¡°I don¡¯t know what you¡¯re talking about.¡± Hector added, ¡°I don¡¯t care whether you understand me. Remember, what goes aroundes around. You can¡¯t me Keh for what happened since you were the first to start all this. You¡¯re on your own now.¡± After saying that, he sat on the lounge chair at the side and ignored her. Tyler sighed and said, ¡°Harriet, what belongs to Rad is his. Keh won''t covet his things. But if you want something that doesn¡¯t belong to you, you can¡¯t me others for what you¡¯ve done.¡± 3/5 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A 12:44 Tue, 20 Feb Chapter 75 Everything in the Zelinski family will belong to Keh in the future because Viona Zelinski was the contributor to their achievements at present Without Tyler''s daughter-inw, Fiona, the Zelinski family could not achieve such a powerful status. Although they were an influential family, it could only be known as the wealthiest family in Drieso, However, under the leadership of Keh¡¯s mother, Fiona, it gradually became the top in the country, and with the development under Keh, it became the world¡¯s richest family. Therefore, it was natural for Keh to inherit everything from the Zelinski family. Morcover, he was the most excellent descendant of the Zelinski family. It was the best option to hand over everything from the Zelinski family to him. As for Conrad, he was like a spoiled rich kid who hung around day by day but had high ambitions, always longing for things that did not belong to him. Tyler knew very well the intention of Harriet to marry Hector back then. However, to marry into the Zelinski family, she had signed an agreement stating that she and Conrad had to waive the inheritance right of the Zelinski family. Greed had no limit. Tyler could not believe Harriet wanted to end Keh¡¯s life so that Conrad could naturally inherit everything from the Zelinski family. Harrict was not convinced as she mused, ¡®Why does everything belong to Keh? They belong to Conrad, ¡°Remember what you signed when you married into the Zelinski family. No one will benefit from it if we show it out openly,¡± Tyler reminded. If the parents loved their children, they would always have a long-term consideration for them. Hector hadn¡¯t been close to Keh for so many years, as he wanted him to grow up with maturity. So, he made Keh feel abandoned by the family, which made him desperately work hard for improvement. Hector hadn¡¯t expected Keh to be so excellent and sessful. Although Keh hated him, Hector felt pleased with his achievement, and that was enough for him. Harrict did not anticipate that Tyler would warn her with the previous agreement. She 4/5 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You 5/5 12:44 Tue, 20 Feb Chapter 75 Ei 863% made a lot of effort, wanting to marry into the Zelinski family, and finally forced thedy of the Zelinski family, Fiona, to her death. She thought she had a chance but did not expect Hector to insist on rejecting his marriage with her. Without having a choice, she could only get herself pregnant with his child through a scheme and force him to marry her. However, Harriet had to sign an agreement before getting married. +5 She mused, ¡®I''ll never recognize such nonsense agreement. Even if | do, that would only happen after Keh¡¯s death!"

After all, a person who had been banned by the music association would be unable to stand out for the rest of his life unless the ban was lifted! Thepetition went well without the presence of someone like Yohannes. However, there was a slight w in the otherwise perfect circumstances as the scene of thepetition became a venue for people to be starstruck. Almost all of the audience and the contestants were Samantha''s fans. In addition, Samantha¡¯s true appearance was enough to triumph over any actress. That was undoubtedly a surprise to them! After the top three contestants were finalized, Cassandra was ready to leave. However, in the underground garage, when she was about to get into the car, she was frightened by the figure who suddenly rushed out. She was furious. ¡°Yohannes, are you crazy? Just tell me if you have a death wish!¡± Yohannes also realized that he had done something wrong. However, at that moment, he was too desperate. ¡°Cassie, I¡¯m sorry. It¡¯s my fault. | scared you just now. | apologize to you!¡± Yohannes voluntarily admitted his mistake. Moreover, he was on his best behavior and was surprisingly gentle. However, that method was ineffective against Cassandra. ¡°Mr. Yates, you don¡¯t understand humannguage, do you? | told you not to call me Cassie. All of you don¡¯t deserve it. Get the hell out of here.¡± She thought, ¡®What tricks is he trying to pull again? He¡¯s truly resorting to every conceivable means to be forgiven.¡¯ ¡°I''m not leaving.

Don¡¯t be mad at me.¡± After listening to Yohannes expressing his stance, Cassandra wondered if he wasn¡¯t going to consider Yulissa his sister anymore since he said Cassandra was going to be his only sister. These Automation Tools Might Surprise You 12:44 Tue, 20 Feb Chapter 76 ti Cassandra thought, ¡°That¡¯s funny. Unfortunately, it¡¯s all toote. Yohannes contemted on everything in the past two days and found that Yulissa was just a goody¡ªtwo-shoes. She pretended to be innocent to win sympathy while secretly doing evil things. After staying at home for so long, Yohannes always heard Yulissa say that Cassandra bullied her. However, he had never seen it before. Everything she said had always been a one-sided statement. Yohannes thought, ¡®However, what did I do previously? | trusted Yulissa unconditionally, and we thoroughly punished Cassie. Moreover, shortly after her arrival, we locked her in a small dark room, not to mention for three days straight. Why was | so cruel at that time?* ¡°Yohan?¡± Yohannes thought Cassandra was calling him. He even responded happily. ¡°Yohan, my foot! Do you think I¡¯m still the fool who just returned to the Yates family? Do you still I''ll still readily do whatever it takes to get your approval? Now, who do you think you are? Do | have to forgive you if you ask me for forgiveness? Dream on! Let me tell you something. Yohannes, it¡¯s impossible for me to forgive you or the Yates family for the rest of my life. We can never reconcile!¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t need Yohannes to pretend to be affectionate and assume a brotherly role before her at that moment. ¡°Cassie, it¡¯s not like that. | really know | was wrong. | will change. I¡¯m really willing to change. Don¡¯t do this. | don¡¯t expect you to forgive me right away, but at least give me a chance, okay?¡± Yohannes was a little anxious and flustered. He wondered if Cassandra had truly misunderstood him so deeply. However, how could that not be the case? Although he hadn''t hit her in their previous life, the cold look in his eyes had clearly implied to Cassandra that she wasn¡¯t worth the trouble of getting his hand dirty. Cassandra thought, ¡®What did he say? That¡¯s right. He told me he would require me topensate with my life if something bad happened to Yulissa. Will | ever forgive someone like him? No! Never!" Cassandra snorted. ¡°If you want me to forgive you, fine. I''ll forgive you if you die. Otherwise, there¡¯s no room for negotiation.¡± 2/5 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A 12:44 Tue, 20 Feb Chapter 76 ti Yohannes was frightened by the look in Cassandra¡¯s eyes.

Are my previous mistakes truly unforgivable?¡¯ Yohannes didn¡¯t give up and asked, ¡°Do you hate me so much?¡±N?velDrama.Org: owner of this content. He thought, ¡®Do you despise me so much that you want me to die? Have | trulymitted such heinous sins?* ¡°Yes!¡± Then, she added, ¡°Yohannes, you''d better never appear in front of me again. Otherwise, being banned will not be the end but the beginning of your nightmare. If you don¡¯t believe it, feel free to give it a try.¡± Cassandra ignored Yohannes. She thought, ¡®Is there really nowhere else for him to be? Subsequently, she returned to the hotel to pack her luggage. At the hotel, inside Keh¡¯s presidential suite. Yannick put the aromatherapy candle sent by Cassandra in front of his boss respectfully. ¡°Mr. Zelinski, I''m sorry. It was me who thought ill of others. | apologize to you and Ms. Yates.¡± Yannick couldn¡¯t calm down for a long time. He had people from the testingboratory and clinicalboratory do the tests together. Finally, he found that the bottle of aromatherapy candle was not only harmless but might also effectively relieve Keh¡¯s insomnia. However, he couldn¡¯t be certain because Keh had previously tried many medicines and hired plenty of famous perfumers, yet his insomnia couldn''t be alleviated. Yannick didn¡¯t harbor much hope as to whether the aromatherapy candle sent by Cassandra would be effective, but since it was harmless, he figured Keh could use it. He had been red countless times by Keh since the day before. ¡°Did you get the results?¡± Yannick lowered his head further, thinking, ¡®l was wrong!" 3/5 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A 1244 Tue 20 Feb Chapter 76 Yes ¡°In that case, put it away for now, I¡¯ll use it when | return to the country.¡± Keh gave the orders.

Don¡¯t be a third wheel.¡± He thought, ¡®You''re all eyesores Yannick was rendered speechless. He wondered if Keh was disdaining him. ¡°Til book a ne ticket, then.¡± Yannick had nned to arrange a private ne back home, but he didn¡¯t expect Keh to want to take the ne with Cassandra, not to mention forbidding him from tagging along. He thought. That¡¯s impossible. It¡¯s no big deal. I''ll just buy economy-ss tickets for myself and first-ss tickets for Mr. Zelinski and Ms. Yates. Thinking of something, Keh suddenly went out, leaving Yannick in a daze. Yannick thought. Where is Mr. Zelinski going? Why didn¡¯t he tell me anything?¡¯ Arriving outside Cassandra¡¯s room, he knocked on the door and opened the door. ¡°It¡¯s time to have our meal. Do you want to go downstairs to have our meal?¡± It turned out he was going to invite Cassandra to dine together. ¡°Okay.¡± The next day, they flew to Drieso on the same ne. What Cassandra did not notice was that Yohannes was also on board. In order to keep a certain distance from Cassandra, Yohannes chose economy ss this time. As a result, the journey was very ufortable for him. Moreover, he had to endure for multiple hours. Yohannes thought, ¡®Forget it. I''ll persist.

However, Cassandra didn¡¯t expect the Yates family to wait for her at the door. When she saw Leonardo, Benjamin, Yulissa, and Miranda, her good mood dissipated. ¡°What are you doing here?¡± 5/5 Chapter 77 Chapter 77 Cassandra¡¯s cold attitude made Benjamin and the others ufortable. He frowned and said, ¡°Cassie,e home with me. It was my fault. Please give me a chance, and | will make it up to you.¡± Cassandra seemed to have heard a joke and could not helpughing. Sheughed so hard that her stomach ached. ¡°What did you say? Make it up to me? Don''t you think it¡¯s toote?¡± Benjamin¡¯s face darkened at once. He did not expect her to choose to do it the hard way. However, he remembered his main task today was to take Cassandra home, so he could not let her affect his emotions. It was hard for them to enter, so they could not let their efforts be in vain. They followed Hugo and said a lot of nice words to the security guards before they coulde in. Unexpectedly, he came to her humbly, but she still pushed her luck. Miranda could not stand Cassandra¡¯s arrogance. ¡°Cassandra,e back with us. Maybe we can give you what you want. What future can you have here with an old man?¡± She did not expect her daughter to degrade herself and live with an old man. If she had not followed Benjamin to the ce today, maybe she would not have found where Cassandra lived. Cassandra looked at Miranda with hatred in her eyes. ¡°Do you think | need your pity?

Why are you still so full of yourself?¡±Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org. Cassandra could not understand them. ¡®Isn¡¯t it important to know one¡¯s limitations? Why doesn¡¯t Miranda? What gives her the right to look down on others and be so arrogant?¡¯ Miranda looked a little gloomy, not knowing whether she was ashamed or angry. ¡°Stop making sarcastic remarks ande home with us. It is such a hot day. Do you know how long we have been standing here to wait for you?¡± 4/4 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A Chapter 77 Miranda scolded inwardly, ¡®She didn¡¯t even show any concern when she saw us! How dare she still mock us cynically? She is not as sensible as Lisa!¡¯ ¡°Mrs. Yates, | didn¡¯t ask you to wait here. On the contrary, | can have the doorkeeper at the door escort you out,¡± Cassandra said indifferently. Miranda was about to scold her, but Benjamin stopped her. They came on a mission, and it must not be ruined by anything else. Lucas was going to hold a wee party for Cassandra. It would involve everyone from the upper ss but the Yates family. In the Yates family¡¯s current situation, they could not afford to lose Lucas as a safe haven. He still had several pieces ofnd worthy of development. If he could give the projects to the Yates family, they would soar to new heights. However, Sylvia had said that working with the Yates family was to go against her. The Qualls family and the mayor were behind her, so no one dared to offend her. Therefore, it was the Yates family¡¯s only chance to turn things around. Cassandra was now Benjamin¡¯s daughter. Benjamin wanted to use that to make Cassandra work for the Yates family and get thosends for them to develop. ¡°Cassie, don¡¯t listen to your mother¡¯s nonsense. We have realized that it was our fault for ignoring your feelings. It won¡¯t happen again! Your mother and | will treat you well in the future, and so will your brothers,¡± Benjamin said affectionately. His attitude was so sincere that Cassandra almost thought they had really recognized their mistakes. However, a leopard could not change its spots. It was impossible that they would recognize their mistake. ¡°What''s your purpose?¡± Cassandra did not want to be involved with them. It was annoying that they blocked her outside the door when she was about to arrive home. Benjamin smiled and said lovingly, ¡°We have no agenda. We just want you toe home with us. You have been outside long enough. Enough sulking. It¡¯s time for you toe back!¡± He hade to pick her up in person.

Mr. Yates, there is no need to act like loving parents in front of me. Do you think you and Mrs. Yates have done a good act?¡± Cassandra mercilessly exposed him. Leonardo frowned, and his face darkened. He wondered why Cassandra could be so indifferent to them as if she were a different person. She used to be happy for a long time when they said a good word to her. He could not understand the situation at the moment. They had coaxed and said a lot of sweet words, yet she did not listen to a single word they said. Instead, she was being sarcastic and mocking them. ¡°Enough, Cassandra! Do you know who you''re talking to? Be respectful.¡± Leonardo tried to use his demeanor as a big brother to teach Cassandra a lesson. ¡°Then, what¡¯s your attitude? How dare you talk to me like that?¡± ¡°Cassandra, if you''re still mad at me, then I won¡¯t show up. Mom and Dad really want to take you home. You don¡¯t need to be harsh and hurt them so much,¡± Yulissa said pitifully, as if she was wronged, as she defended her parents and Leonardo. Cassandra really found Yulissa to be utterly irritating. Yulissa always said she would not show up, yet she often showed up in front of Cassandra. ¡°Ah!¡± Cassandra kicked Yulissa in the chest and sent her flying ten feet away and falling t on her face. ¡°Ouch! It hurts!¡± Yulissa covered her chest and wailed. Miranda, distressed, hurriedly helped her up and said, ¡°Oh my! Lisa! Are you all right? Where did you get hurt?¡± Yulissa cried, ¡°Mom, my chest hurts so much...¡± ¡®Damn you, Cassandra! How dare you kick me? I''ll never let youe back to the Yates family! Yulissa cursed inwardly. Seeing that, Leonardo had forgotten their purpose and scolded, ¡°Cassandra, you¡¯ve 3/4 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You Chapter 77 gone too far. How can you kick Lisa? Apologize to her now!¡± Benjamin¡¯s eyes had a raging storm brewing within them, yet he was still trying to suppress his anger. Leonardo went to check on Yulissa. At this time, Miranda rushed to Cassandra regardless of everything. She raised her hand and prepared to p Cassandra. ¡°You vicious brat!¡± However, the p did not fall. Instead, a faint pain came from Miranda¡¯s wrist. Cassandra grabbed her hand and sneered, ¡°Mrs. Yates, do you think I''ll get beaten again? | have warned Yulissa not to show up in front of me. Since she insisted oning here for a sense of presence, | could only grant her wish! Does it break your heart? Then, why do you want to act and fake familial love in front of me and deceive me into going back to the Yates family? What are you trying to use me for?¡± Cassandra had just returned, and she did not know what had happened recently in the country. Therefore, she could not guess the purpose of the Yates family. Unexpectedly, Keh showed up after getting changed. ¡°Of course, it¡¯s for the glory of the Yates family. You¡¯re the daughter of the Hathaway family now.

Yulissa had already told the family about what happened in Spaunia, but they didn¡¯t expect things to be like that. Yulissa was surprised to see Yohannes¡® return. But she still felt a little angry at the thought that he had driven her and Miranda away. Yet, she didn¡¯t show it on her face. ¡°Yohan, it¡¯s good to have you back. You can rest at home for a while,¡± Yulissa spoke first. However, Yohannes didn¡¯t seem to appreciate her kindness. Instead, he snorted coldly and passed her by. Benjamin and Miranda¡¯s face darkened. They wondered what he had done during the time he was outside and changed his attitude toward Yulissa. Benjamin questioned in a deep voice, ¡°Yohan, what¡¯s your attitude? Your sister greeted you. How dare you treat her like that?¡± ¡®The rtionship between their siblings had always been good. Why is he bing like this? How could he ignore his sister? Is that the etiquette | have taught them to deal with things?¡¯ Benjamin thought. ¡°| have only one sister, and that is Cassie. Not any random nobody can be my sister!¡± Frowning, Leonardo¡¯s expression was grim. He didn¡¯t expect Yohannes to say such a thing. Yohannes used to pamper and adore Yulissa so much. What happened? Why doesn¡¯t he even want to recognize Yulissa? Is it because Cassandra is Samantha? Did they make a deal? Cassandra is our sister, but only if she wants to return to the Yates family! ¡°What are you talking about? Lisa has done so much for you. How can you treat her like this? Do you still have a conscience?¡± Miranda walked toward Yohannes while talking. She was so disappointed in Yohannes and added, ¡°Because of you, she has been hiding in her room crying these days.

Move out He firmly believed that as long as Yulissa got out of the Yates family, Cassandra woulde back Therefore, he had to kick Yulissa out. ¡°Nonsense! What are you talking about? Lisa is your sister. How can you kick her out?¡± Benjamin scolded coldly and thought. Yohannes is simply outrageous! It¡¯s not up to him to decide for the family! Yohannes snorted and his face became more gloomy than before. He red at Yulissa menacingly as if she was not his sister but his enemy. ¡°Sister? | don¡¯t have a sister who ruined my career.¡± Who would want a sister who ruined his future? | dared not want it! Whoever wants her, take her away! Yohannes thought. Benjamin suddenly froze. His cold face changed, and his tone softened a lot as heforted Yohannes. ¡®It was an ident. Why do you care so much? Lisa didn¡¯t mean it Besides, she did it for your own good.¡± What kind of logic is that? Yohannes was shocked and seemed to understand Cassandra¡¯s previous feelings. Everyone only spoke up for Yulissa and only cared about her, regardless of others¡¯ feelings. Yes, she did it for my sake. She was so good that she went to Cassie¡¯s room to steal the music and told me that it was original. When Mr. Sullivan exposed it, she bit her head off and denied it. She knew Cassie was Samantha, so she wanted to smooth it over and resolve things peacefully. It¡¯s all for my own good that | am now banned by the music association and am forced to stop all of my performances! My future is ruined in her hands. Well, she did all this for my own good, right?¡± Not being able to perform or stand on the stage would be a pain in his life. And the culprit was still enjoying the protection of his parents.

She just needed to say one word, and you can get away with it, yet she didn¡¯t help you. You should me her, but not Lisa!¡± Miranda couldn''t bear to let anyone scold her daughter like that. She brought Yulissa up. Without Yulissa, she might have gone crazy long ago. Therefore, in her eyes, only Yulissa was her daughter, while Cassandra was just someone rted by blood. ¡°Hurry up and apologize to Lisa! How can you say that to your sister?¡± Yulissa stood aside and sobbed as if waiting for Yohannes to apologize. ¡°Mom, are you hexed by her? It¡¯s obviously her fault.

But in turn, | had to take care of the wrong party''s feelings andfort her. Cassie must have been feeling this way at home in the past two months. As long as Yulissa cried, everything would be others¡® fault, Yohannes thought. Raymond, who came back from outside, happened to hear Yohannes¡® words. Sarcasm soon filled in his eyes. He understood Yohannes'' feelings because he had gone through that, too. ¡°That¡¯s right.

When the Yates family mentioned that to her, she had no idea about it at all. It was Keh who told her. Otherwise, she would still be kept in the dark.

Still, Cassandra figured someone like her probably wasn¡¯t worthy of that privilege. ¡°You don¡¯t need to prepare anything. You just have to show up stunningly. You will be my nominal daughter from now on. You can do as you please in Drieso in the future!¡± Lucas patted his thigh in agitation. However, he wasn''t entirely right. With Cassandra¡¯s current abilities, she could already do as she pleased in Drieso, and no one couldy a finger on her. Cassandra was rendered speechless, thinking, ¡°That¡¯s not necessary.¡¯ Eventually, Cassandrapromised and let them do what they wanted. 4/4 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A Chapter 79 They were one of the few people in the world who treated her sincerely. At that time, if it hadn¡¯t been for the 100 thousand dors Lucas spent to save her grandmother, Cassandra might have be an orphan at the age of ten. If it hadn¡¯t been for Sylvia¡¯s assistance, ine wouldn¡¯t exist now. Cassandra thought, ¡®In my previous life, | hurt them. In this life, I¡¯ll be patient and avoid upsetting them again. Therefore, they can do as they wish as long as they¡¯re happy. On the 25th of May, a wee party was held at the Hathaway residence in Drieso. Most of the famous people in Drieso attended that party. As Lucas personally organized the party, he also drafted each invitation letter in person. For the guests, receiving the invitation was a kind of recognition. That way, it would make the guests feel more prestigious to attend such an event. A guest asked, ¡°Do any of you know the insider news about this wee party hosted by Mr. Hathaway?¡± Another guest replied, ¡°I know this. The girl Mr. Hathaway wants to take as his goddaughter is the Yates family¡¯s biological daughter, but the Yates family had treated her badly and even sent a statement breaking off rtions with her. However, this girl was raised with the support of Mr. Hathaway, and Mrs. Hathaway apanied her as she grew up. They liked her so much that they couldn¡¯t wait to adopt her as their goddaughter.¡± Another guest said, ¡°I¡¯ve heard about it too. The Yates family dotes on the imposter while practically abusing the real daughter of their family!¡± Another guest said, ¡°I participated in the charity gst time. Yulissa is really despicable for setting Cassandra up in that manner. If | were Cassandra¡¯s mother, | wouldn''t let someone like Yulissa go. However, Benjamin and Miranda shifted all the me onto Cassandra. Perhaps Cassandra is now thoroughly hurt and disappointed with them.¡± Another guest chimed in, ¡°s, she¡¯s such a pitiful child. She must be extraordinary for Mr. Hathaway to take her as his goddaughter.¡± One of the guests responded, ¡°Don¡¯t you know? Cassandra is amazing. She¡¯s actually the famous ine, as well as the renowned songwriter, Samantha, in the entertainment industry. These two statuses of hers could already allow her to do as she pleases in 2/4Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org. These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A Chapter 79 Drieso without needing to rely on anyone else.¡± ¡°Doesn''t that mean the Yates family had cast away a real gem?¡± ¡°Who can they me for their poor judgment? | should warn all of you. Mrs. Hathaway previously dered that if any of us dared to invite her and members of the Yates. family to the same banquet, that would be an act of opposing her. | suggest none of you provoke her.¡± Thedies gathered around and chatted with each other. Miranda and Benjamin''s faces turned pale after they heard that. Yulissa and Leonardo also looked pale. They felt like the Yates family¡¯s reputation was being dragged through the mud. They were utterly ashamed. The Yates family used a lot of connections and even spent tens of millions of dors to get an extra invitation from someone. Unbeknownst to them, all the money they spent went into Lucas¡® pocket and finally into Cassandra¡¯s bank card. Benjamin was willing to pay to attend the party. That proved the Yates family wanted to gain some benefit from Cassandra. Lucas was curious to see what tricks the group of monsters and freaks could pull. Therefore, he asked the man the Yates family approached to deliberately make things difficult for them for a long time. In the end, the Yates family forked out 100 million dors. The man handed the sum to Lucas, and Lucas gave it to Cassandra, considering that amount aspensation for the Yates family¡¯s years of maltreatment toward her. Unexpectedly, after the Yates family members entered the venue, all they heard were derogatory remarks about their family. Benjamin knew that Cassandra¡¯s current identity could bring glory to the Yates family, which was why they insisted on attending the party. They wanted Lucas to admit that he had stolen their daughter in front of everyone, and since Lucas had snatched Cassandra from them, they should bepensated. No matter what, Cassandra was still a member of the Yates family. Regardless of the Yates family members¡® willingness to ept her, they wouldn¡¯t allow anyone to take advantage of them. 3/4 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A A622 Chapter 79 Benjamin thought, ¡®Since Mr. Hathaway wants to take Cassandra as his goddaughter, he¡¯ll have to give usnds in exchange!" Yulissa¡¯s countenance became contorted. Her malice was evident. She thought, ¡®Why? Why is everyone praising Cassandra? I¡¯m the role model they should beplimenting. Why did everything change when Cassandra came back?* ¡°Wee to the wee party | hosted. This is my wife, Sylvia.¡± That was Lucas¡® habit. Whenever they attended an event together, his wife would stand next to him whenever he gave a speech. Moreover, he would also introduce her in a grand manner every time. The audience apuded. Sylvia asked Cassandra to stand between her and Lucas. Lucas stretched out his left hand and introduced, ¡°This is the protagonist of today¡¯s banquet. She¡¯s also the only child my wife and | have wished to take as goddaughter for so many years. Not long ago, she formally joined the Hathaway family. Therefore, from now on, she will be a child of the Hathaway family.¡± Holding Cassandra with one hand, Sylvia added, ¡°From now on, | will deem anyone who dares to bully Cassie to be opposing me. Whoever upsets her upsets me. When I¡¯m upset, I''ll make sure the culprit pays a dear price!¡± Her threatening speech brimmed with her protectiveness toward Cassandra. However, at that moment, Benjamin suddenly stepped forward and said, ¡°Mrs. Hathaway, that¡¯s not right. Cassie is a member of the Yates family. Did you seek my opinion before letting her in your family?¡± 4l4 Chapter 80 Chapter 80 The appearance of Benjamin surprised everyone present. ¡®Didn¡¯t Mrs. Hathaway say that the Yates family is prohibited from showing up where she is? Why is the Yates family invited to the banquet held by themselves? Mrs. Hathaway would surely be infuriated!¡¯ everyone mused. As expected. Sylvia¡¯s face changed in an instant. ¡°Who let you in? Get out!¡± Leonardo stepped forward and said with a serious expression, ¡°Cassandra, do you truly intend to acknowledge Mr. and Mrs. Hathaway as your family? Your biological parents are still around. Because of you, the family is crumbling. Yohan and Ray have left home. Our once¡ªhappy families are on the brink of copse, yet you wish to consider others as your parents. What about us?¡± Leonardo didn¡¯t know what his father was thinking. He really wanted Cassandra to go home and live in peace with Yulissa. Cassandra was also the child of the Yates family, so it was normal for her to return to the Yates residence. Therefore, he wanted to stop this wee party. Yulissa also promised him that she would get along well with Cassandra in the future and that things like before would never happen again. Unexpectedly, Cassandra just chuckled when she heard what he said. Her eyes were full of sarcasm as she sneered. ¡°What does it have to do with me? If | remember correctly, we have cut off our rtions as evidenced by the statement issued by the official ount of Yates Group. Howe it doesn¡¯t count when ites to you, Mr. Leonardo Yates?¡± She added, ¡°Yohannes and Raymond ran away from home. However, you don¡¯t examine the reasons within yourselves. Instead, you me me for all of this. Mr. Leonardo Yates, | have never encountered someone as shameless as you. | spected that Yohannes ran away because he couldn''t face a sister who had ruined his future, and one has to ask Mr. Benjamin Yates and Mrs. Yates for the reason Raymond ran away from home.¡± Everyone''s expression changed. Those outsiders were anticipating a spectacle to unfold. ¡®Wow! Is there a new gossip topic here? Surely, there¡¯s no shortage of gossip when the 1/5 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A Chapter 80 Yates Family is involved, everyone thought. Leonardo was dumbfounded. Indeed, this was the reason Yohannes revealed himself. He knew about the reason Raymond left home too. He felt sorry for Raymond, but he couldn''t take out that much cash. Leonardo felt helpless, but he was already persuading his father to hire the miracle doctor! Because it was unrealistic to get the medicine from Keh. ¡°Let''s wait until the wee party is over. After that,e back with us. Let¡¯s discuss about it.¡± Leonardo looked at those weird gazes and couldn''t stand them. He could only whisper to ask Cassandra to follow them back first. ¡°Go back? That¡¯s not your purpose, is it? Why don¡¯t you tell me what Mr. Benjamin Yates wants exactly?¡± Cassandra ignored Leonardo. Instead, she swiftly inserted a silver needle into one of his acupoints. Leonardo instantly went mute. He was so shocked that his face turned pale. He tried to open his mouth to speak but could not say anything. Yulissa walked to Leonardo with concern and said, ¡°Leo, what''s wrong? Why can¡¯t you speak?¡± She reached out, wanting to pull the silver needle out. ¡°| advise you not to move it. If you want your brother to be mute forever, just pull it out as you wish.¡± Yulissa was initially intimidated, but upon reflection, she deemed it improbable for Cassandra to possess the skill to mute people by blocking their Lower Skull Acupoint. Not believing Cassandra¡¯s words, Yulissa reached out her hand again, but Leonardo dodged her advance nimbly. Fortunately, Cassandra only muted him but didn¡¯t paralyze him. Yulissa¡¯s hand hung in the air awkwardly. She was at a loss for what to do. ¡®Damn it! How could Leo not believe me?¡® she thought. Asmile crept up Cassandra¡¯s lips as she observed the scene. Her voice was melodious, but everyone could detect the sarcasmced within her words. ¡°See, your dear brother 2/5 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A 12:45 Tue, 20 Feb Chapter 80 doesn¡¯t believe you. After all, your disbelief broke Raymond¡¯s hand, and your confidence ruined Yohannes'' future. If you withdraw the needle, Leonardo will be mute forever!¡± Hearing this, Miranda hurriedly pulled Yulissa aside and said, ¡°Calm down. Take your brother to the hospitalter.¡± Miranda would rather believe in Cassandra''s words than take the risk. ¡°Mr. Benjamin Yates, please begin your performance.¡± When Cassandra observed that everyone wasposed, she redirected her focus toward Benjamin. With Keh¡¯s reminder, her n had been expedited. It was just that Benjamin remained unaware of it. She wondered whether the Yates family would thank her after knowing that she had prepared such a big surprise for them. That scene must have been spectacr! Unfortunately, the Yates Family still had about 7 billion dors in their possession at the moment. Cassandra felt she had left too many assets for them. But rest assured, she would make sure they spent them out. ¡°Cassie, you are a member of the Yates Family. What ulterior motives could | possibly have? | just want you toe home with us. It was challenging to openly admit that he was targeting thends. Otherwise, he would be aughingstock among their competitors. If words went out that he traded his daughter for a few plots ofnd, he feared he wouldn''t be able to hold his head high in the future! ¡°Are you sure you don¡¯t want to bring it up? Your request might be considered if you speak up now. However, once the opportunity is lost, it will be lost forever.¡± Cassandra¡¯s words stirred quite amotion in Benjamin¡¯s heart. ¡®Indeed, only if | speak up now and Mr. Hathaway agrees to it publicly, would there be assurance that he won''t backtrack on his. word! Otherwise, what if Mr. Hathaway goes back on his words in the future?¡® Benjamin pondered. 3/5 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A Chapter 80 ¡°Since the Hathaway family wants to recognize you as their goddaughter, they must present us with a meeting gift. However, up to now, the Hathaway family has made no move at all...¡±This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org. ¡°I see. They snuck in here to try to reap benefits.¡± ¡°What an eye-opener! | didn¡¯t believe what you said just now. Now, it¡¯s so embarrassing!¡± ¡°Why is the Yates family so shameless?¡± ¡°Yeah, their dignity means nothing when ites to benefits. Yates Group¡¯s market value has been declining consistently. They''ve incurred more losses in the past half- month than in previous years. How can he not be anxious?¡± ¡°| suppose Benjamin has some grand ns while he still has the resources. | think he¡¯s eyeing several plots ofnd owned by Mr. Hathaway, which are indeed worth developing. ¡°If you want benefits, no problem. I¡¯ve prepared them for you!¡± Cassandra was in a jubnt mood. She couldn¡¯t wait to witness Benjamin¡¯s reaction. Benjamin was a little vignt about what Cassandra wanted to do. ¡°| intended to share the good news with you after my SAT. Since you can¡¯t wait, I''ll reveal it now. | own 45% of the shares of Yates Group. As thergest shareholder, | invite you to attend the appointment ceremony of the new Chairman of Yates Group tomorrow.¡± Boom! Benjamin couldn¡¯t hear Cassandra anymore. What does she mean by having 45% of thepany shares? What appointment is she talking about? How could she have the shares of Yates Group? She must be lying to me!¡¯ he mused. ¡°You brat! This joke is not funny at all!¡± Benjamin didn¡¯t believe Casandra had the capability to achieve this. ¡°Believe it or not, you''ll find out tomorrow.¡± Hearing that, Lucas realized that Cassandra must have leveraged the power of Modern Beacon Synergy. Otherwise, someone like her, who disliked troubles, wouldn¡¯t have purchased shares of Yates Group. Instead, she would have let it go bankrupt. Acquiring 4/5 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A 12:45 Tue, 20 Feb Chapter SO its shares was rather unnecessary. However, he knew that Cassandra surely had her own ns. For instance, Yates Group would change its ownership, and the Yates family would be ousted from thepany. Or perhaps she would push for a change in the name of Yates Group. It was more likely that she would aim for thetter. Most probably, Yates Group would cease to be a part of the Yates family. It would undoubtedly be a devastating blow for Benjamin. 5/5 SEND GIFT These Automation Tools Might Surprise You 0 COMMENT A Chapter 81 Chapter 81 Obviously, Benjamin didn¡¯t believe that a country bumpkin like Cassandra could afford. to buy shares of Yates Group even when thepany was not at the apex as it was before. It would cost about 7 billion dors in order to get hold of 45 percent of thepany shares. No way would Cassandra have that huge amount of money. Even if she did, she should spend the money to honor her parents. Cassandra¡¯s move, in Benjamin¡¯s view, was a joke intended to attract everyone''s attention. Even Miranda thought so, too. She snorted and retorted, ¡°What a joke that you imed to have bought shares of Yates Group. You can¡¯t even locate the entrance to Yates Group. Who taught you to be so bold. and devoid of manners?¡± ¡®Manners? Well, that¡¯s something to mention, Cassandra thought. ¡°| indeed have no manners. | was born but not raised by my parents over the years, so it is no surprise that | have no manners.

On the contrary, Mr. Benjamin Yates, you need to work harder on your act. Your true intentions are exposed too quickly.¡± ¡°Look, it¡¯s true.

What¡¯s going on? Why do | see the disappointment on his face?¡± ¡°Impossible. It should be anger you saw,¡± However, Leonardo''s eyes were indeed filled with disappointment. He originally thought that after his two brothers left, his parents would repent and be nice to their own daughter. He thought his parents were fuming after learning that Cassandra had be someone else¡¯s goddaughter. That was why they came here to argue. However, it turned out that their true intention was to use the pretext of bringing Cassandra home as a means to secure the resources in Lucas¡¯ possession. In Leonardo¡¯s eyes, his parents¡¯ action was no different from trading their daughter for benefits. No wonder Cassandra would rather slit her wrist than have anything to do with the Yates Family. There was indeed no ce for her in the Yates family. Benjamin¡¯s thoughts were exposed by Cassandra in public. He was ashamed and angry! ¡°You... You brat, what bullshits are you talking about? It¡¯s all nonsense!¡± ¡°Consider my words mere nonsense then. Mr. Benjamin Yates, do you have the courage to solemnly swear that you had no intention of coveting thend in Lucas¡¯ possession? If you lie, both you and your sons will face dire consequences!¡± Cassandra thought that this kind of swearing scene would make a spectacle. Two of his sons had not ended well. But Cassandra didn¡¯t think it was enough to quell her vengeance. She was certain that there were a lot of opportunities for her to target the rest of the Yates brothers. These Automation Tools Might Surprise You 12:50 Wed, 21 Feb 6 Chapter 81 Cassandra was curious to know if Benjamin was willing to sacrifice the remaining of his four sons. Benjamin fell silent for a moment. It was as if all his words had be lodged in his throat. ¡®Cassandra is so vicious! | can¡¯t believe she is making me swear such a vicious oath!¡± he thought. Yulissa suddenly stepped forward and said with an aggrieved face, ¡°Cassandra, don¡¯t force Dad like this. Dad really wants you to go home, otherwise, we wouldn''t have bothered looking for you.

In the end, Cassandramented that it was much morefortable to wear trousers. ¡°Cassandra, you...¡± Miranda didn¡¯t have the chance to use Cassandra, as she hastily checked to ensure Yulissa was unharmed. Upon seeing Miranda approach, Yulissa pretended to faint, causing Miranda to nervously catch her in her arms. Cassandra chuckled, thinking, ¡®Oh, not this trick again. She reall on every asion.¡¯ likes to feign a faint. Leonardo, who was going to walk over to check on Yulissa, suddenly stopped because he saw Yulissa pretending to be unconscious. Yulissa was actually fine. However, she pretended to faint. ¡°What does this mean?

Benjamin received a notice of the shareholders¡¯ meeting. He was very surprised. As the shareholder of Yates Group and thepany¡¯s Chairman, how could he not know about the shareholders¡¯ meeting? He had a vague bad feeling! After being kicked out by Lucas yesterday, he felt something was amiss. However, he couldn¡¯t pinpoint what was amiss. No, he had to hurry to thepany. Leonardo also received the message, but since he couldn''t speak now, all he could do was type. Hence, the speed for him to convey his message was much slower than others. When Benjamin and Leonardo arrived at Yates Group office, they found Cassandra sitting in the seat of the Chairman. ¡°Cassandra, get up quickly. This is not your seat. Do you think you are qualified to sit there?¡± Benjamin came over and immediately unleashed a barrage of scoldings. This was his position. No one should covet it. ¡°Mr. Benjamin Yates, you''re here. Let¡¯s begin our meeting today.¡± Cassandra had no intention of backing off at all. ¡°Why are you the one announcing the meeting¡¯smencement? | should preside over the shareholders¡¯ meeting. It¡¯s not your ce.¡± Benjamin felt more and more uncasy. He felt that today¡¯s meeting was a trap.

And they¡¯re all held by a young girl?¡± Everyone pondered in disbelief. They found the news hard to believe, yet a few shareholders remained silent. Observing the skepticism among everyone. Benjamin smiled smugly and remarked, ¡°Cassandra, stop bluffing already. Even if you have the money to buy the shares, you won''t be able to acquire this much.¡±This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org. Benjamin was well aware of the number of shares each shareholder possessed. Even if Cassandra were genuinely wealthy, she wouldn''t be able to acquire such a substantial amount of shares. However, in the next moment, half of the present shareholders stood up and nodded at Cassandra. The leader dered, ¡°We''ve sold all our shares to Ms. Cassandra Yates. From now on, Yates Group has nothing to do with us!¡± After stating this, these individuals intended to leave. Initially, they hade here today merely as a formality. Their sole purpose was to announce the transfer of the shares. That was it! ¡°Please sit down. | have something to sayter.¡± They still had to heed Cassandra¡¯s words. After all, one tended to lick the hand of anybody who could throw them a few crumbs. In the end, those with the capital had the most say in the society. Benjamin was in disbelief. He wondered how things had turned out this way. ¡°It''s impossible. Even if you acquire the shares of these people, there are only 35% at most. How can there be 45%? You must be lying!¡± Indeed, Cassandra could only acquire 35% of the shares at most. How could she surpass him and be thergest shareholder? Benjamin owned 42% of thepany shares. No one could threaten his position.. ¡°Indeed, they only ount for 35% of the total shares. As for the extra 10%, maybe your should inquire with your eldest son.

BY) The day before the banquet, Yohannes and Raymond went to Springmount Townhouse looking for her. Cassandra was still thinking about how to acquire the 5% shares in Raymond¡¯s hand. when he unexpectedly came to her himself. It seemed like she was going to achieve her goal without the slightest effort. ¡°What brings you here today?¡± Cassandra seldom spoke in a pleasant tone, leaving Raymond perplexed. He wondered if this was the real Cassandra. She was confident, ostentatious, and unpretentious. She was starkly different from the cowardly, sinister, and vicious girl she used to be. ¡°I''m here to ask for your help to find Dr. Quirke to treat my hand, but | don¡¯t have that much money.¡± Raymond''s attitude was much better this time. He used to be arrogant because he had the support of his parents! But now, he had left the Yates family. He had seen through and realized his parents¡¯ partiality. He was about the same age as Yulissa, yet his parents bestowed all their love upon her. They were unwilling even to attend to his hand, causing him to repeatedly miss the opportunity for proper treatment Now, he could only rely on his own! ¡°Cassie, you haven''t had breakfast yet. | bought a bacon grilled cheese sandwich for you. | asked the chef to prepare it specially. Now is a good time to enjoy it,¡± Yohannes said attentively. From now on, Yohannes swore he would give all his love to this sister in front of him! ¡°It''s okay. Yohannes, you''d better take it back.¡± Cassandra turned her eyes away and looked at Raymond. ¡°What price are you offering? Do you think you can easily hire Dr. Quirke as you wish?¡± These Automation Tools Might Surprise You aq 12:50 Wed, 21 Feb L Chapter 82 Raymond looked gloomy. Of course, he knew that it was difficult to hire Faye for treatment. Otherwise, he wouldn''t have left with only one option. He had to ask for help from Cassandra. Even if she satirized him, he could only bear it. He didn¡¯t want to be handicapped. ¡°lL only have 200 million dors in cash, not much more.¡± Raymond was a little embarrassed. The price he offered was really too low. Faye treated the Zelinski family and charged 2 billion dors for his consultation fee. His price was only one-tenth of that! Well, he¡¯s got to try. ¡°Your price is... too low.¡± That meant that Faye wouldn''t agree to take his case. Yohannes also felt sorry for his brother. He knew the whole story and said, ¡°I only have 160 million dors of cash avable here. Take it first.¡± Raymond looked at Yohannes gratefully. Unexpectedly, the first brother to help him. was Yohannes whom he seldom met. ¡°360 million dors is still too little. There is no need to go for the treatment. Who do you think you are hiring?¡± Cassandra obviously didn¡¯t intend to care about their feelings. What she ultimately wanted were the shares of Yates Group held by Raymond and Yohannes. However, she hadn''t reached that stage yet. It would be better for Raymond and Yohannes to take the initiative to offer the shares to her, rather than beingpelled to do so. ¡°However, | really don¡¯t have that much money. | certainly don¡¯t have 4 billion dors.¡± Raymond gritted his teeth with hatred the moment he mentioned that. The Yates family had the money. However, Benjamin and Miranda were unwilling to pay for his treatment cost. As a result, he was now ha ndica pped and couldn''t use his hand.. ¡°Faye has never made a house call with this amount of money. You can go and ask.

Is it more crucial to retain shares. with a declining market value, or to utilize them to contend for your future?¡± Yohannes was lost in thought. Indeed. These things were all worthless. Besides, their parents gave them the shares, which meant they belonged to them. They had the final say on how to deal with it. Yohannes turned to Raymond and said, ¡°Raymond, there¡¯s no hope for my future. you still have something left. Let¡¯s take a chance.¡± But ¡°| have 5% of the shares, and Yohan has another 5%.

However, the original 42% held by the Yates Family has now be 32% Benjamin¡¯s internal rm went off. What does she mean by 32%? Where is the remaining 10%? Who was it? Who sold 10% of the shares?¡¯ Benjamin roared inwardly. ¡°Mr. Benjamin Yates, you were unwilling to pay for your son¡¯s treatment at that time, so he had to find a way himself! That¡¯s how he came to me. Thanks to the 10% shares, otherwise, | wouldn¡¯t have secured my ce in Yates Group so soon!¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t want to waste time conversing with Benjamin. Meanwhile, Leonardo was agitated, being unable to speak. Every time he tried to say something, he couldn''t produce any sound. ¡°Everyone, do you have any objection to my rights? Don¡¯t worry, all the directors here. My focus doesn¡¯t lie here. Therefore, | will hire a Chairman who will be responsible for handling everything in Yates Group in the future.¡± The door behind Cassandra suddenly opened. A man in his thirties wearing a ck suit walked in. His whole presence was shrouded in mystery. The customized ck leather shoes signified his elegant taste. ¡°Well...¡± ¡°What''s this... ¡°Isn''t this the vice CEO of Modern Beacon Synergy? What¡¯s his name? Cyrus? Yes, he¡¯s called Cyrus Jacobs!¡± ¡°Why is the vice CEO of Modern Beacon Synergy here at Yates Group?¡± ¡°Cyrus has graced every economic magazine cover. His good looks are just one of his strengths.

All | can say is if Yates Group flourishes under his guidance, Ill be waking up withughter in my dreams.¡± ¡°| share the same sentiment. | have a hunch that Yates Group will undoubtedly reach another pinnacle of sess.¡± Cyrus walked to Cassandra cooperatively and nodded slightly at her. He had finally met Cassandra.

Is there anyone else here who doesn¡¯t know him?¡±N?velDrama.Org: owner of this content. The moral of the story was that with strength, one could speak with confidence. Benjamin was also shocked for a long time. He didn¡¯t understand why Cyrus woulde to Yates Group. ¡®What does he want from Yates Group? Benjamin wondered. ¡°From now on, he will be the acting chairman of Yates Group. Do you have any objection?¡± Cassandra said coldly. Everyone shook their heads and said they had no objection. Then Cassandra cast a disdainful nce at Benjamin and remarked, ¡°One more thing. | find the name Yates Group too targeted. Perhaps we should consider changing it. What do you think?¡± Yates Group. The name itself suggested that it was the Yates family¡¯s territory! If that was the case, Cassandra was determined to ruin their territory! The Yates family didn¡¯t deserve to have apany named Yates Group. ¡°Ms. Yates, what name are you suggesting?¡± A shareholder stepped forward to speak. ¡°Let''s call it Blossom Group from now on. It signified that Yates Group would bloom. and prosper in the future!¡± These Automation Tools Might Surprise You 12:50 Wed, 21 Feb Chapter 83 Benjamin almost fainted with anger! G ¡°Cassandra, how dare you! I¡¯m the Chairman of Yates Group. Why should Yates Group change its name? It has borne that name for 20 years, why would it withdraw now?¡± If the name was changed again, he would be no different from other shareholders. Thispany would be someone else¡¯s! Cyrus knew that this girl must have missed her Grandma Blossom who adopted her Perhaps it was for the best. ¡°I''m thergest shareholder. It''s my say now. How can you refuse?¡± ¡°I''m also a shareholder, and | have the right to refuse¡± ¡°I''m sure everyone here agrees to my proposal. What right do you have to say not i hope you don''t still think you have the veto right, do you?¡± Everyone present indeed agreed to Cassandra¡¯s proposal. They had no doubts ar moment when Cyrus appeared. It didn¡¯t matter what thepany¡¯s name was. The most important thing was that it could make money! As long as Cyrus could make money for thepany, it didn¡¯t matter what it was called. They wouldn¡¯t mind, even if it was called a piece of sh it. ¡°W-Why don¡¯t | have the veto right? 1...¡± No, he had lost it. He now possessed only 32% of the shares, and a change in thepany necessitated more than two-thirds of shareholders¡¯ consent. At the moment, he didn¡¯t hold more than one-third of the shares. Therefore, his objection was rendered useless.. In a terrified state, Benjamin pondered if he had just been ousted from his own. company. ¡®No! No way! Yates Group is mine! | founded it!¡¯ Benjamin eximed inwardly. ¡°Mr. Former Chairman, there¡¯s currently no suitable position for you in thepany. 3/5 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A Wed, 21 Feb Chapter 83 Why don¡¯t you consider heading home for now?¡± Cassandra suggested. ¡°Why stay here and continue the pain?¡¯ Cassandra thought. ¡°Cassandra, you brat! How dare you side with outsiders and take over the family¡¯spany? How can you do such a shameless thing to me?¡± Benjamin was heartbroken and deeply regretted his decision. He regretted bringing Cassandra back home in the first ce and giving her a chance to attack the Yates family. It turned out that Cassandra was an ungrateful brat. She even wanted to kick her own father out of thepany! ¡®What an ingrate! I¡¯m utterly disappointed, Benjamin mused. ¡°| gave you a warning yesterday. You missed the chance to win over the shareholders. How can you me me for that? Mr. Benjamin Yates, please step out. Blossom Group is about to its first shareholders¡¯ meeting, and it seems inappropriate for you to be present,¡± said Cassandra. Just then, Leonardo took out his phone and typed a few words to Benjamin: [I¡¯m also a shareholder of thispany. Why should leave?) Benjamin simply sat down nearest to Cassandra. He wanted to see what she could do!! Tsk, he¡¯s quite persistent! But it doesn¡¯t matter. There¡¯s more toe, Cassandra thought. She said gently to Cyrus, ¡°You can preside over the meeting. From now on, you will be the acting chairman of Blossom Group. I''ll leave thepany to you.¡± Cyrus smiled warmly, and his eyes were full of tenderness. ¡°Rest assured. I''ll make sure thepany prospers.¡± Cyrus turned to all shareholders and his eyes paused on Benjamin. ¡°Mr. Benjamin Yates, you seem quitefortable sitting here, but | hope you can provide me with exnations regarding the matters I¡¯m going to bring up next.¡± He had the documents handed out to each director one by one. 4/5 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A Wed, 21 FEB Clupter 83 372%Ia) Finally, Benjamin also got one copy of the documents. However, as soon as Benjamin. got it, he saw all the directors¡¯ angry faces. They were all staring at him fiercely. He felt that something big was happening. He opened the file and took a first look. His vision darkened, and he nearly fainted. It was Leonardo who gently patted him and brought him back to his senses. Benjamin was shocked that Cyrus had uncovered all this information. He thought Cyrus just got here! ¡°It''s... Benjamin was stupefied. ¡°| understand now. Yates Group has been profitable sincest year. | always wonder why itis still financially strained. It seems you were the one ying tricks.¡± A hot-tempered shareholder stood up angrily and threw the document in his hand at Benjamin. ¡°It''s fake. How can it be real? It must be a forgery!¡± Benjamin exined repeatedly. & Chapter 84 Chapter 84 ¡°Benjamin, you are so shameless! How dare you get involved in an ounting fraud and greedily take our money!¡± ¡°Return the money! Give them all back to me!¡± ¡°And mine!¡± ¡°The evidence is conclusive. We will see if it¡¯s false!¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. You are so shameless! Call the police and arrest him!¡± ¡°| agree with you. Call the police directly. Let him pay for the ounting fraud!¡± All the shareholders med Benjamin one after another. At such a time, they would not care whether the evidence was true and unanimously agreed that Benjamin had greedily taken their money. To them, such a person did not deserve to stay in Yates Group. Benjamin was very panicked. He could not argue with it. He had gotten involved in ounting fraud, but in his view, every company had been doing that. He could not understand why they would be so surprised. Moreover, he thought he had done it discreetly and secretly, so he could not figure out how Cyrus could find it out. He could not admit it, absolutely not. Otherwise, he had to pay them back and lose his moncy. ¡°| didn¡¯t! These are all fakes. All of you should believe me. Haven''t you gotten any money from all these years?¡± Benjamin exined in a hurry. Those words had just shown his guilt, and those shareholders would trust him even less. Indeed, there was no absolute trust in the face of interests. ¡°Mr. Jacobs, please call the police. Arrest this man and investigate him carefully. Ask him to return all the money he has taken from us!¡± one shareholder suggested. The shareholders could not believe Benjamin dared to get involved in ounting fraud. Even if otherpaniesmitted ounting fraud, they knew it was just for dealing with the inspection./Benjamin looked gentle and harmless on the surface, but he only paid them whatever amount inspected. Meanwhile, the finance department also helped him to keep it hard and did not reveal anything. 15 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You Wed, 21 Chapter 84Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org. At that moment, they finally realized Benjamin was such a despicable man behind their backs! Benjamin was anxious and found that no one believed him at all. Those shareholders were the directors who had worked with him for many years. He felt helpless and had no choice but to admit it because he could not stand the police. investigation. If he was still a shareholder of Yates Group, and such a matter came to light, he could justpensate some money and kick two directors out to smooth things over. But at present, he had just been dismissed as thepany chairman. At the thought of that, he cursed inwardly, ¡®It¡¯s all Cassandra¡¯s fault! This brat was born to be against me!¡± Cyrus spoke up. ¡°Mr. Yates, there are two ways for you now. The first one is to call the police to report the ounting fraud. But it involves arge amount of money, and you will be sentenced to imprisonment. You must return all the money you greedily took, pay taxes, make up for overdue fines, and repay the money owed to shareholders. The second way is to cash in your shares, leave Blossom Group, andpensate the money owed to shareholders. | can buy the shares you hold. Just name your price.¡± Both choices that Cyrus gave were burning Benjamin¡¯s bridges. If Benjamin did not make thepensation, he would be sent to prison. If hepensated the money, he had to leave Yates Group. Cyrus was indeed cruel, acting evilly like a devil under a gentleman¡¯s appearance, typically a wolf in sheep¡¯s clothing. ¡°Cyrus, don¡¯t go too far! | canpensate the money to shareholders. But how can you kick me out of thepany?¡± The company was his whole effort, so he could not allow anyone to drive him away. Cyrus smiled charmingly and asked coldly, ¡°Mr. Yates, are you sure you can afford thepensation with your current assets?¡± Benjamin suddenly could not say a word in response. He was unsure. Then, he secretly calcted in his mind, ¡®In the past few years, it should be hundreds of millions of dors each year. And after five years, it should be around 7 billion dors. Doesn''t it mean that it will cost me topensate for all my remaining assets? Cyrus is too cruel! Cassandra is so ruthless!¡± ¡°ording to the information found in the investigation, Benjamin has greedily taken These Automation Tools Might Surprise You M% Chapter 84 7.34 billion dors from us over the past few years. He must repay it all to us! We, as the shareholders, will distribute the dividend proportionately!¡± At that time, Cassandra also stepped forward and added, ¡°And for the shares | bought, every shareholder can calcte it yourself for the amount Benjamin owes you before.¡± Benjamin was in great shock and thought, 734 billion dors? How could there be so much? Then, my existing assets are completely insufficient to pay! | only have 6 billion dors, that¡¯s all! What about the remaining hundreds of millions of dors? Where should | get it?¡± ¡°That¡¯s impossible! How could it be so much?¡± He did not want to go to prison but did not wish to be kicked out of thepany. either! ¡°Mr. Yates, if you don¡¯t believe me, you can calcte it yourself. But if you overcount or undercount it, let¡¯s see whether everyone here will let you go.¡± Cyrus did not give Benjamin a chance to speak and continued, ¡°Let¡¯s just give Mr. Yates three days to pay off all the money owed to shareholders. Then we''ll let bygones be bygones. But now, Mr. Benjamin Yates, Mr. Leonardo Yates, please go out first. We are going to have a formal meeting.¡± Cyrus believed that everyone in the room would be interested in this meeting gift very much. He wanted everyone to know that ine was the most powerful person in the world, and the Yates family was nothing in front of her. The conference room finally went silent after Benjamin and Leonardo were kicked out. ¡°Cyrus, you can preside over the meeting. I¡¯m leaving now.¡± Cassandra stood up and was about to leave. It seemed that Keh was looking for her for something. So, she needed to check it out. Cyrus was stunned, and his pleasant voice sounded in the room. ¡°Are you leaving now?¡± ¡°Yes. | believe in you, Mr. Jacobs!¡± Cyrus smiled gently and said, ¡°Then | will certainly live up to your expectations.¡± After leaving Yates Group, Cassandra headed straight to the coffee house where she had. arranged to meet with Keh. These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A Chapter 81 She wondered as soon as she arrived, ¡®Do people of a certain age like to talk in such a vintage coffee house?¡± She pushed open the private room¡¯s door and saw Keh brewing coffee. His skillful. technique was rxed and pleasant to watch. Just as she opened the door, she saw Keh shrouded in the sunshine. He looked as handsome as before, but there was a feeling of indescribable warmth. Cassandra thought, | must be crazy! He is the richest man in the world. Everyone has said he is cruel and ruthless! How could | feel that he is warm? | must have lost my mind! ¡°What''s the matter for you to look for me?¡± Cassandra sat opposite him. At that moment, Keh boiled the water, ground the coffee beans, put the ground. coffee powders into the filter paper to filter, andstly, poured a cup of freshly brewed coffee for her. ¡°Have a sip of the coffee first, and we''ll talkter.¡± Heined in his heart, ¡®Does Cassie dislike spending time with me so much? Why does she always want to go straight to the point?¡¯ Cassandra drank that cup of coffee in one go. For her, it was just a thirst quencher like water. It was the same for her, no matter what kind of coffee it was. ¡°Can you say it now?¡± In Cassandra¡¯s view, it must be important since he did not want to talk about it in the mansion but came in person to tell her outside. ¡°| heard that you know Dr. Quirke?¡± Keh asked. His subordinates had just reported to him about that recently. They told him Cassandra often went to Whitecrane Hall, and she was close to Hugo, so he thought she should know Faye. Cassandra was momentarily stunned and wondered why he wanted to find her again. ¡°What¡¯s wrong? Does someone need medical treatment?¡± He was neither denied nor admitted. These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A Chapter 84 ¡°Pretty much,¡± answered him. ¡°You don¡¯t want to save that man? ¡°Yeah.¡± After returning, people of the Zelinski family came to him. Conrad''s legs were disabled, and it was useless even though they went to all hospitals to search for treatment. Even the experts hired from the international medical college could do nothing. They knew he had sought help from Faye before, so they wanted him to invite her again. 5/5 Chapter 85 Chapter 85 Keh felt speechless for Tyler and Hector as the father and son had threatened him with Fiona¡¯s belongings. Hector said threateningly, ¡°As long as you invite Dr. Quirke over, | will give you the letter your mom gave you, no matter whether Conrad¡¯s leg can be cured or not.¡± Keh hated being threatened by others the most in his life-not to mention that it was by the person he hated most. He even wished to murder his father directly. ¡°Are you threatening me?¡± ¡°You can say so. But even if you kill me, you won''t find the ce where | put the things. No one in this world knows it except your mom.¡± It was a secret between him and Fiona. Their son, Keh, certainly did not know the ce.Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org. ¡°Then, you''d better pray that | won¡¯t find it!¡± Nevertheless, it turned out that even though Keh had sent countless people to look for the letter, there was no trace of it Even Hector¡¯s stuff in the safety deposit box had been opened, but they found nothing inside. They had also thoroughly searched the study and bedroom but still failed. Keh hated such a feeling very much. If it were something else, then he would not have cared about it. But it was a letter from Fiona, Keh was angry that Hector could be so inhuman as to hide it for so many years. Helplessly, Keh agreed to their request. But it depended on Faye whether the treatment could be sessful or not. Therefore, Keh took advantage of the matter to ask Cassandra out. His subordinates had told him that she knew the people in Whitecrane Hall, so he naturally assumed that she knew Faye. ¡°Is it the person who hunted you down in Spaunia? Cassandra thought that it should be only that person who could make him want to get rid of it soon. 115 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A Chapter 83 ¡°Yes, but it''s her son.¡± Then, do you wish for Dr. Quirke to save the person or not?¡± Cassandra was curious about that. After all, she just saved people as she pleased. If the customer wished for treatment, she would do it, but if not, she would not proceed. ¡°Let''s see what Dr. Quirke can do.¡± Keh did not want to interrupt others¡¯ thoughts with his own judgment. To him, it was up to Faye whether to save the patient or not. ¡°Okay, I''ll ask Hugo to contact Dr. Quirke after home. I''ll get back to you if there is any news. Cassandra did not agree immediately. Keh did not know her identity, so she would not expose herself. Keh nodded and said, ¡°Thanks a lot.¡± When Cassandra returned to Springmount Townhouse, she saw two groups of people waiting for her outside her house. One of the groups wasposed of Yohannes and Raymond, and the other was of Benjamin, Miranda, and Leonardo. Yulissa did note out at that time because she was kicked twice by Cassandra, and her body could not stand it. Cassandra frowned and thought, ¡®It seems to be the time to move. This ce is getting noisier now.¡¯ ¡°What are you doing here?¡± Yohannes showed something to her eagerly and said earnestly, ¡°Cassie, | brought you a carrot cake. Try it. It¡¯s still fresh.¡± ¡°| won''t eat anything you give me. Thanks.¡± Then, Cassandra looked at Raymond, widened her eyes slightly, and continued, ¡°Come here to my ce the day after tomorrow. I''ll take you to see Dr. Quirke.¡± With that, it confirmed the fact that Raymond had sold his shares. These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A Wed, 21 Feb Chapter 85 Benjamin was so angry that he almost coughed out blood. These two idiots actually sold their shares for real! he cursed inwardly. ¡°You, two bastards! Who asked you to sell your shares without authorization?¡± That was a ten-percent share. Benjamin thought that if it were still in his hands, the current problem would have never happened. Yates Group would still be called ¡°Yates. Group¡± instead of having its name changed to ¡°Blossom Group. have Raymond was stunned by Benjamin¡¯s words and then whispered sarcastically in an instant, ¡°Then, should | expect you to treat my hand? What qualifications do you! to struct Cassandra? It¡¯s useless, isn¡¯t it? At least, | still have something that can make her interested now. Of course, | want to save myself!¡± Yohannes also said, ¡°My future has been ruined. Without the agreement of the music association, | can¡¯t y the violin for the rest of my life. But if Ray''s hands can be cured, there¡¯s hope for his future.¡± Benjamin almost fainted with anger from the two! ¡°You, two ba st ards! Don¡¯t you know that because of your ten-percent share, Cassandra has be thergest shareholder of Yates Group and dismissed my position?¡± Benjamin wished that he could kill his two ipetent sons! If the two of them had not made the decision on their own, the current problems would have never happened. Raymond and Yohannes looked at Cassandra in disbelief. Raymond looked a little gloomy. ¡°Did you buy other shares?¡± ¡°Don¡¯t you allow it?¡± Raymond dared not to say anything further. On the contrary, Yohannes was not so surprised. Instead, he thought that Cassandra was so powerful that she had be the chairman at such a young age. ¡°Wow! Cas sic, you are amazing! When can you teach me about it?¡± It''s my talent. You can¡¯t learn it. Also, don¡¯t act in front of me, or don¡¯t me me for being rude to you!¡± Cassandra refused him mercilessly. Benjamin did not care about them so much. All he knew was that Cassandra had caused These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A Wed, 21 Feb Chapter 85 all the problems to ur, so she had to bear the responsibility. 9x715, ¡°You''ve asked Cyrus to investigate thepany¡¯s ount, so you should be the one topensate for it!¡± He could not afford the amount of over 7 billion dors anyway. However, if Cassandra could invite such a master of his craft. he thought that she could definitely solve those problems. Cassandra¡¯s worldview waspletely shattered by his shamelessness, and she cursed. ¡°You''re really shameless! No. | think you''re not only shameless but thick-skinned and cheeky at the same time! How dare you think that | should solve those problems for you? What? Mr. Yates, you''ve been in the industry for so many years but didn¡¯t expect to lose your power in the end, right? Is there any problem with the meeting gift for shareholders given by the professional acting chairman | invited? How dare youe here to ask me to pay it back? Where did you get the illusion that I¡¯m still a member of the Yates family? What a ridiculous joke! Stop showing your shamelessness and refreshing my perception in front of me again!¡± Benjamin and Miranda almost fainted in anger after hearing her words. Miranda¡¯s eyes widened, and her expression contorted like a shrew who was going to fight on the street. She dressed gorgeously but acted rudely. ¡°Cassandra, you little bit ch! We are your parents. It¡¯s natural for you to be filial to us. Stop talking so much nonsense. If you don¡¯t have money, give us this mansion!¡± She had inquired about the mansion from someone and found that it would cost at least 200 million dors. She did not expect Cassandra to be so rich that she lived in a townhouse worth 200 million dors. The most important thing was that it was the closest to the city center and had the best location. Cassandraughed in exasperation and shook her head. ¡°Parents? Where did | get my parents from? When | needed a parent, where were you? When Grandma Blossom died and | had no family, where were you? You were with your adopted daughter and traveled around the world to buy her the best things! When | returned to the Yates residence and needed a parent, where were you? Did you forget your disgust of me in your hearts? Do you need me to remind you? Where were you when Leonardo and his brothers locked me up in the darkroom for three days and nights? You were picking out the so-called best gift for your adopted daughter. In contrast, | was in the darkroom, eating only the rotten food the maid sent every day. In order to punish me, the Yates. brothers resorted to every conceivable means on me. Usually, the Yates residence didn¡¯t These Automation Tools Might Surprise You 5/5 Wed, 21 Fe Chapter 85 even have leftover food, but there were so many leftovers when they punished me. Did | really hurt Yulissa? Do you remember why you locked me in the darkroom?¡± SEND GIFT Chapter 86 Chapter 86 Leonardo, Yohannes, and Raymond were all stunned. They felt ashamed. Because Cassandra was indeed telling the truth. It was Yulissa who imed that Cassandra pushed her down, and also asserted herself as the eldest daughter of the Yates Family. She also used Cassandra of badmouthing her, saying that she was a nobody in the Yates family. Therefore, after a discussion about Cassandra¡¯s punishment for pushing Yulissa down, they punished her by locking her up ina dark and tiny room. However, they did not order the housekeepers to feed her food scraps. The housekeepers did it on their own ord.. ¡®But, didn¡¯t | already punish the housekeepers when | got news of her mistreatment? Why is Cassandra still obsessed with this matter?¡± Leonardo pointed his finger anxiously at his phone screen and typed out: [I already dealt with that maid. Why are you still so fixated on this matter?] Cassandra saw this and smirked, ¡°Remember how you ¡®dealt with her? You pped a 40-dor fine. A regr worker might get that for being two hourste. In Mr. Yates¡¯ eyes, three days of mistreatment is just worth 40 dors.¡± Cassandra coldly stated, ¡°Mr. and Mrs. Yates, leave. | won¡¯tply with your requests. Stick around, and | might change my mind about letting Dr. Quirke treat Raymond.¡± Cassandra¡¯s sudden indifference threw Raymond into a state of panic. ¡°No, I¡¯m leaving. I''ll leave now!¡± He was afraid that Cassandra would really go back on her word, and his efforts would be for naught. Cassandra threatened coldly, ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter if you leave; everyone must leave. Even if one of you stays, I¡¯ll change my mind!¡± ¡°Cassandra, who are you to kick me out? I¡¯m your mother!¡± Miranda shouted. Cassandra¡¯s words were like a p to her face. Moreover, Miranda was unaware of Cassandra¡¯s ims. The day after she returned, she went on a business trip with Benjamin. It was Raymond who called, informing them that Lisa had been pushed down. As for the specific punishment given to Cassandra by Leonardo and Miranda, they These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A Chapter 96 remained in the dark. Now, the strange expressions on their children¡¯s faces confirmed Cassandra¡¯s statements. No matter how poor the Yates family was, there would be no such thing as food scrapings. ¡®What were these children doing?¡¯ Miranda fumed. ¡°I have no mother, father, or brother. Mrs. Yates, you¡¯d better remember it clearly. Otherwise, don¡¯t force me to hurt you!¡± ¡°They weren''t here for me when | needed them; but now that | don¡¯t need them anymore, they cling on to me, Cassandra mused. Leonardo stood silently on the side, his eyes reflecting a mix of emotions. Tears welled up in his eyes, whether from the urgency of being unable to speak or.regret upon hearing Cassandra''s revtions was unclear. Raymond pleaded with his family, ¡°Dad, mom, Leo, | beg you, please leave. Do you really want me to be handicapped in the future?¡± His face portrayed a mix of helplessness and desperation. Despite Raymond''s plea, there was no sign of his parents leaving. The gravity of the situation prevented anyone from making jokes, considering the possibility of Cassandra regretting her decisions. ¡°Raymond, you...¡± Benjamin looked at him in exasperation. ¡°Dad, no matter what happens today, please leave first. If Cassandra goes back on her word, do you think | can still get my shares back? Are you really going to make me a handicap?¡± Raymond fumed, cursing his parents inwardly. ¡®Why are my parents are so selfish!¡± ¡°Honey, why don¡¯t we go back first? Ray¡¯s business is more urgent.¡± It¡¯s not as if Miranda wants Raymond to be handicapped. It was just that Benjamin had all the money in his family, so she had no say in this matter. ¡°You...¡± Benjamin eximed. Leonardo gripped Benjamin and ushered him away without hesitation. The tranquility finally settled in. Cassandra dialed Hugo¡¯s number with determination, ¡°Hugo, instruct the property 2/4 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You Chapter 86 management to investigate. Who allowed the Yates family in without the house owner¡¯s consent? | need an exnation!¡± Despite being a high-endmunity with impable security measures, it failed to prevent the Yates family from entering twice without the house owner¡¯s approval, even pinpointing my exact location. ¡°Yes, I''ll dispatch someone to investigate immediately.¡± Outside Springmount Townhouse, Miranda blocked Yohannes and Raymond from leaving. ¡°Why are you two staying outside? Come home with me!¡± Miranda demanded, her anger rising. Each son was her pride, so why were these two acting rebellioustely? ¡°Mom, as long as Yulissa is in that house, | won¡¯t go back, Yohannes asserted, making his stance clear. ¡®I don¡¯t want a sister who unjustly upies another''s ce,¡¯ he mused. Yohannes dered, ¡°I won''t go back either. Since everyone you care about is at home, why bother about my life?¡± Raymond nced around, deliberately avoiding eye contact with his parents. For him, this family had be a source of complete disappointment. Miranda, distressed by her sons¡¯ misunderstandings, felt the weight of their usations. I¡¯ve treated them all equally. Lisa has faced more challenges recently, so | took care of her a bit more. Is that wrong?¡¯ she thought. ¡°Ray, | treat you all the same. The decision about the miracle doctor isn¡¯t mine to make. Besides, who knows if Cassandra even knows the miracle doctor? You handed over your shares blindly, and now she¡¯s using them against your father. Do you realize that?¡± Miranda pleaded with Raymond. ¡°Listen, Ray, go with Yohan and retrieve the shares given to Cassandra. Only then can | return to thepany, secure my position, and have the funds to treat your hand!¡± urged Benjamin. Benjamin¡¯s borate n was undeniably well-crafted. If Raymond hadn''t experienced it before, he might have believed it. ¡°Mom and Dad, | may have a short temper, but I¡¯m not foolish. When you say these things, can you convince yourselves? | may dislike Cassandra, but at least she saved my life. In her eyes, she either treats or doesn¡¯t, and | don¡¯t think I¡¯m worth lying to. The 10% of shares | and Anthony gave her were voluntary and unrted to her!¡± These Automation Tools Might Surprise You Chapter 86 ¡°Go back. If you still consider me your son, don¡¯t disturb Cassandra until she cures my hand!¡± Raymond decided, no longer willing to engage with his parents. His heartache deepened as he understood his parents favoritism. In their eyes, Yulissa was the one who mattered the most. And Cassandra was right: the winding road was their frequent racing spot. So, the surveince there is always avable 24 hours a day, and most importantly, the surveince there will not be formatted until one monthter.

Yulissa, without a word, escaped. She boarded the car. heading to the destination only at three in the morning. No calls, no condolences in between. In the operating room, notifications about his mother¡¯s calls came from the doctors. As Cassandra mentioned, it was his mother who halted the surgery, waiting for Jace to arrive. Ironically, everything he was experiencing was a result of his own family. Ultimately, his life was granted by Cassandra. Suddenly, a feeling of regret emerged in his heart... SEND GIFT Chapter 87 Chapter 87 Hugo hurriedly called the property management department to vent his anger after the Yates family¡¯s harassment. ¡®How dare they allow unauthorized personnel ess into the residential area to disturb and trouble the house owner!¡¯ It was eventually revealed that the Yates Family had bribed the doorkeeper into letting the trespassers in after a round of investigations by the property management. The doorkeeper was dismissed after paying a fine for viting the rules set by property management. As such, Benjamin and Miranda were prohibited from entering the area two dayster. The new doorkeeper scoffed, ¡°Please leave. | won¡¯t let you in without the house owner¡¯s permission.¡± He¡¯d learned from the past mistake of his predecessor, who ended up being fired and having his bribe confiscated. The sry he received from the property management in this residential area was high enough, which meant it wasn¡¯t worth risking his livelihood in the long term for a paltry SUIT Benjamin forced the 4,000 dors on the property management office as usual. ¡°I implore you to give us some leeway. My daughter lives here. Here¡¯s your tip of 4,000 dors.¡± The new doorkeeper didn¡¯t even spare a nce at the bills and proceeded to speak into a walkie-talkie, I¡¯m reporting from the guardhouse. A certain Mr. Yates insists on bribing me with 4,000 dors so that | would grant him ess to the residential area. How should | deal with him?¡± The look on Benjamin¡¯s face transformed at once. He hadn''t foreseen the doorkeeper being so stubborn. Several men arrived shortly after and drove them 32 feet away, forbidding them from nearing the arca. ¡°How dare that brat Cassandra go about posturing right in my face! She must be itching for a punishment. | swear to teach her a lesson when shees out!¡± Miranda bit out furiously. 115 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A 0 Chapter 87 She had never been so humiliated in her entire life. Benjamin uttered impatiently. ¡°That''s enough. Calm down. Don¡¯t forget what we are here for today!¡± Miranda was dumbfounded. Of course, she knew what their main goal was. They were still short of money despite having to pay 7.34 billion dors to their shareholders the following day. Besides, they were against doing so. Nheless, the police would be after them if they refused. Thus, they had no choice but toe looking for Cassandra. It didn¡¯t matter whether Cassandra would pay on their behalf or if they managed to convince Cyrus to drop the issue, as long as Miranda didn¡¯t have to pay a single cent of her own money. ¡°It goes without saying that the best oue would be acquiring Cassandra''s shares!¡± Miranda hadn¡¯t expected her to be so capable and wealthy to dabble in shares. She mused begrudgingly, ¡®Da mn it! How could she keep her instead of using it to repay me for raising her? ¡®| wouldn''t have treated her as such if she¡¯d contributed it earlier! To put it bluntly, she asked for it!¡± s, no one appeared after they waited all day at Springmount Townhouse. This was due to it being the day she promised to treat Raymond''s hand. While Raymond was allowed entry to Whitecrane Hall, he could only receive treatment secretly. Hence, he wore a mask so that no one could recognize him while making his way in. Those who came by Whitecrane Hall to collect their medication and discuss coborations assumed he was just a random celebrity instead of a member of the Yates Family. After all, the Yates family had been banned from entering the premises. Cassandra disguised herself as a 30-year-old man. Since she had trained to be a 2/5 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You Chapter 87 voice actor, it was a piece of cake for her to make herself sound like a man. Therefore, no one doubted the miracle doctor''s gender and only viewed her as a man. Cassandra cut to the chase. ¡°I''ll ept ten percent of the shares you asked Cassie to bring. While | can treat you. I¡¯m forewarning you that | will only treat one hand. It¡¯s up to you to decide!¡± Raymond''s eyes widened as he stared at the miracle doctor in disbelief. ¡®Cassandra never mentioned anything of the sort!¡± ¡°Why is it that only one hand of mine can be treated... I... Raymond was dubious. If that was the case, his other hand would still be invalid. The current market value of 10 percent of the shares is only over 7 billion dors. What do you think? I¡¯m doing this for Cassie¡¯s sake, so take it or leave it.¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t have time for his nonsense. He could either agree to have one of his hands treated or scram.This belongs ?

Either way, she would not return the shares they relinquished to her. ¡°Please treat my right hand, then!¡± Cassandra and There was still hope for his left hand, which had just been fractured by would recover eventually. His right hand, on the other hand, was a lost cause. He dared not tarry any further. While he could afford to have his left hand mend itself gradually, his right hand couldn''t wait. Cassandra raised her brows. ¡°True enough, one can¡¯t be too merciful. Otherwise, others will just push their luck! ¡°To think that he¡¯d think of treating his right hand. ¡®lll grant his desire, then. Even after treating his hand, | can still disable the other one if situations like this ur again in the future!¡¯ Since Raymond¡¯s meridians were damaged and non-functioning, it would be a has sle to reconnect them point to point. These Automation Tools Might Surprise You Chapter 87 She instructed Hugo to apply ayer of herbs on Raymond¡¯s hand and waited for two hours. After wiping the herbs off, Cassandra began deploying a medical technique that involved reviving the inactive meridians by pr icking them with needles. The entire process was harrowing without the use of anesthetic. Large drops of sweat dripped down Raymond''s forehead. It was so painful that he was almost at his limit. ¡°You''d better be quiet. Otherwise, | will terminate the treatment the moment you disturb me!¡± Cassandra warned testily. Unfortunately, she had to proceed with the treatment after epting the Yates family¡¯s shares as she had no desire to be indebted to them. The whole treatment process took two hours. Raymond felt as if some strength had returned to his hand. However, he dared not try it out, lest anything were to happen after enduring such an arduous treatment. ¡°Return here once every two days to get treated by Hugo consecutively for a month. You will be as good as new after that!¡± While there was a quicker way to heal Raymond¡¯s hand, Cassandra intentionally avoided it. She would let him suffer each time he went under the needle. ¡®Hugo would likely be more than happy to take over my job!¡± ¡°My hands will be back to normal in a month?¡± Raymond couldn¡¯t believe his ears at how quickly it took his hand to recover. ¡°This is the recovery rate you get for the amount paid. You are free to top-up if you wish for it to heal even faster!¡± He would be back in shape much quicker if Kayden paid an even heftier amount. ¡°It¡¯s fine. I''m already satisfied with the current recovery rate!¡± Raymond didn¡¯t mind waiting for a month. Moreover, he didn¡¯t have any more money to spare. 4/5 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You Chapter 87 Hence, this would have to do. n It appears that Cassandra is indeed acquainted with a miracle doctor and managed to ask him for a favor! ¡®| wonder what''s her rtionship with him? ¡®Regardless, it doesn¡¯t matter now that Yohan and | have decided to treat her well. ¡°The most important thing right now is to ask for her forgiveness!¡¯ ¡°Please leave if there¡¯s nothing else!¡± Cassandra straight out ordered him to leave as she disliked being bothered by the presence of a member of the Yates family. Raymond wisely excused himself promptly. Jeremiah entered the room through another door. ¡°Why force yourself to treat him if you¡¯re so unwilling?¡± ¡°I''m not. I¡¯ve gained possession of their shares and weakened Benjamin¡¯s strength in Yates Group. | estimate that he''ll be kicked out of his position on the board of directors. in two days. So, do you still think that my efforts are for naught? | believe Benjamin will experience what it¡¯s like to be backstabbed by his son.¡± While knowing that Raymond had used thepany¡¯s shares to seek treatment from at miracle doctor was one thing, thest straw for Benjamin would be when he witnessed the full recovery of his hand! 5/5 f& SEND GIFT 0 Chapter 88 Chapter 88 The cra ck of dawn marked the arrival of day three. Thus began the shareholders¡¯ meeting. Benjamin had hunkered down, waiting for Cassandra all day the day before. As for the shareholders¡¯ meeting, he had thought about calling in sick and being absent. However, Cyrus had issued an ultimatum that should he not turn up when the shareholders¡¯ meeting began, then Cyrus would choose to report him to the police. Benjamin could find no other way out. Biting the bullet and facing the music would be Benjamin¡¯s only viable course of action. Seeing that everyone had arrived, Cyrus officially dered the start of the shareholders¡¯ meeting. ¡°Mr. Yates, did you manage to gather the funds forpensation?¡± Cyrus knew exactly how much fortune Yates Group had. All he wanted was for Yates Group to cough up their every single dime. ¡°|... | don¡¯t have that kind of money.¡± Benjamin decided to throw the handle after the de just to see what they could do to him if he refused to pay. Cyrus knew it. ¡°Since you, Mr. Yates, can¡¯t afford to pay, we shall call the police and let the court liquidate your assets. ¡°You''d better not go too far, Cyrus!¡± Cyrus curled his lips upward into a smirk, for that was the first time in a very long time that someone had the gall to threaten him. If anything, that sensation made him feel psyched. ¡°You''re the one who¡¯s gone too far, Benjamin! We''ve given you three days for Mr. Jacobs¡¯ sake, but what have you done? Trying to climb all over us, are you?¡± ¡°What he said. If you don¡¯t seize the chance we offer to you, let the police take over. I''ll bank on justice, and I¡¯d stake my life on you paying up at the end of the day!¡± ¡°Benjamin, you''ve taken so much money from us. If you don¡¯t hand the money over 1/6 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You wed, 21 FC Chapter 88 today, don¡¯t think about ever setting foot outside of Blossom Group!¡± ¡°That¡¯s right!¡± ¡°You have to return the money!¡± ¡°Pay up!¡± For a moment, Benjamin did not dare to speak. All he saw was a bunch of ingrates getting back at him. 1% When they followed his lead and were raking it in, they showered him with courtesy. Ever since they had gotten on someone else¡¯s good side, they started to point all the me at him. ¡°As you can see, Mr. Yates, it¡¯s not that | don¡¯t want to help you, but that you¡¯re now the public¡¯s target.¡± Cyrus was rather sympathetic. ¡°Since you can¡¯t afford so much money, why don¡¯t | give you an idea?¡± Asnort escaped Benjamin. ¡®What good cane from a jerk who rubs salt into my wound?¡¯ he sneered inwardly. ¡°How about you transfer your shares to me? I''ll bu them at a 20% discount from the market price, so as to help you clear your debt at the same time. How''s that sound?¡± Such was a worthwhile bargain.. Should Benjamin turn down the offer, he would have to spend his days behind bars. ¡°You can¡¯t be that benevolent. What exactly are you up to?¡± He had 32% of the stake in his hands, and at its current market value, it was worth nearly 2 billion dors. To think that Cyrus was willing to buy it with a 20% discount and help him settle that debt of 734 billion dors. The kindness Cyrus was showing seemed too good to be true. ¡°Give it a shot, if you must.¡± That offer captivated Benjamin¡¯s heart. Indeed, it was exactly what he needed at that point. However, handing over his shares meant that he had no ce left in thepany and was kicked out the door. These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A Chapter 88 On second thought, though, he was nning to buy more of it back. He would be receiving 2 billion dors and was able to cancel the debt, after all. With the newly acquired money in hand, he could then buy more of Yates Group¡¯s shares. thereby achieving the same results. ¡°You have three minutes to consider. Give me the answer once you''re done.¡± Three minutes passed. ¡°Mr. Yates, have you made up your mind?¡± Benjamin found it difficult to part his lips. That said, he would not have given up if there was nothing else he could do. ¡°At a 10% discount. I''ll sell you 27 of my shares. Prior to that. Benjamin had called a meeting to reim the shares held by his sons the second he learned that Raymond and Yohannes had sold theirs away. Putting together what Yulissa and Miranda had, it was exactly 27 while Yulissa ounted for 2 Benjamin was bent on keeping his part of the shares and selling the rest. At least that way, he could ensure that he still had a ce in thepany. Cyrus shook his head and let out a chuckle. ¡°It seems that you''re not sincere in cutting us a deal. Mr. Yates. Forget it. Call the police.¡± Benjamin hurriedly stopped him and said. ¡°Fine. 20 it is. But I¡¯m only selling 27% of my shares. You can do what you deem fit. Cyrus brooded over the subject for a while and agreed, ¡°Okay. Let¡¯s draw up the contract but on one condition.¡± Benjamin was stunned to hear that man bringing an extra condition into y. He thought he was already miserable enough. ¡°You get out of the board of directors, and we''ll wire into your ount your share of the annual dividend. We don¡¯t need you to attend the shareholders¡¯ meeting any longer.¡± In Cyrus¡¯ eyes, the Yates family was truly an eyesore. Luckily, ine has left them for good. He secretly breathed a sigh of relief. These Automation Tools Might Surprise You 971% Chapter 88 Otherwise, it would have been easy for him to make that call to get rid of the Yates family. Why, you... Y-You¡¯ve really crossed the line this time! On what grounds do you get to banish me from the board of directors?¡± Benjamin was disgruntled, for even if he sold his shares, he would still be a shareholder nheless. Cyrus had no right to kick him out. ¡°You owe our shareholders money, so | believe that they won''t want to see you here.¡± That stumped Benjamin for words. ¡°Best if you get out, Benjamin. Thepany doesn¡¯t need you for decision-making. ¡°Yeah. now that Mr. Jacobs is here, we don¡¯t need to about anything at all, so Benjamin, you¡¯d better be on your way and enjoy your twilight years at home.¡± ¡°Get lost already, Benjamin!¡± ¡°Fine, | ept it, but | need to check the posting of the annual dividend.¡± Benjamin was a man who had gotten himself involved in ounting fraud before, so he naturally knew how to maneuver his way around it. Therefore, in order to prevent them from engaging in ounting fraud, he figured that he must go through the ledger personally. Just like that, Benjamin signed the equity transfer agreement, and Cyrus asked his assistant to transfer the money to Benjamin. Benjamin was escorted out of the meeting room and was given two hours to pack up his things and leave. ¡°Mr. Jacobs, are you going topensate us the money Benjamin owes us?¡± asked a shareholder sitting close to Cyrus in puzzlement.Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.

By then, all of it will be yours to keep. Of course, let me know if you need the money right now.

They wondered what the man meant by doubling the amount of money. H All they y could understand was that they could get back the 40 million dors at once, or they could wait for two months for it to reach 80 million dors. It turned out that that was not a loss-making deal, after all. Needless to say, if that promise were from somebody else, they would definitely havee at that person. However, it was from Cyrus himself, the second inmand of Modern Beacon Synergy, the heart and soul of every economic magazine cover, not to mention one of the youngest multi-millionaires. If he banked on it, then it must bepletely feasible, or so they thought. ¡°What if you can¡¯t double it up?¡± ¡°Then, I''ll double the amount myself and distribute the money to all of you.¡± In Cyrus¡¯ dictionary, nothing was impossible. The only impossible mission to aplish was to make ine fall for him. He figured that it would never be usible in this lifetime. ¡°Okay, I''ll wait and see.¡± One shareholder decided to believe in Cyrus, and everyone else. chose to follow suit.

In the meantime, Cassandra was in Springmount Townhouse for the past couple of days, developing a drug that could make a crip pled leg look totally cured superficially.

It was just a trip to the Zelinski manor. She wasn¡¯t afraid of it! ¡°Let''s do it tomorrow. Where can | pick up Dr. Quirke?¡± Keh pretended not to know. Cassandra was speechless. Keh was really good at pretending! He knew the location but acted as if he didn¡¯t and inquired about it.

Because Keh had been her benefactor in her past life, she realized she shouldn''t have kept him away like she did. However, she felt that Keh was like a per vert and a scu mbag who flirted around! He was a little frivolous! It was too much! Moreover, whenever she thought about how he treated Faye and talked to Faye about it, she felt unhappy. Faye had the appearance of a man! She was surprised that he could still hit on Faye. The following morning, Keh arrived at the entrance of Whitecrane Hall. ¡°Dr. Quirke, it¡¯s been a long time.¡± These Automation Tools Might Surprise You Chapter 89 Cassandra put on Faye¡¯s disguise again and appeared in front of Keh. ¡°Mr. Zelinski, long time no see. The consultation fee this time...¡± Cassandra wanted to ask about the amount they were willing to pay. Cassandra considered it a major setback, as she personally handled the order without inquiring about the price. Hence, she decided Hugo should take charge next time. If not, she would have to endure nagging again! Therefore, she asked about the consultation fee because Hugo said so. ¡°Any amount is fine. The people living in the Zelinski manor are rich!¡± It seemed like Keh wanted Faye to ask for more money and enjoyed it for some reason. ¡°That¡¯s easy. Let¡¯s go.¡± After arriving at the Zelinski manor, Keh led Cassandra inside, but Harriet stopped them! ¡°Keh, who are you bringing? I¡¯m warning you. Stay away from Conrad!¡± When Harriet saw Keh, she gritted her teeth with hatred. It was all his doing. He sought revenge, and as a result, Conrad ended up like this! Keh didn¡¯t look at Harriet. Instead, he looked at Hector and asked coldly, ¡°Dr. Quirke is here. Where¡¯s the thing | want?¡± It was simply a deal. ¡°Is he Dr. Quirke?¡± He thought, ¡®He appears to be only around 30 years old. Too young.¡± ¡°If you doubt my words, there is nothing | can do. He was the one who attended to Kayden¡¯s injured leg. Keh reminded.. Hector stood up and nodded to Cassandra. ¡°Thank you foring, Dr. Quirke.¡± ¡°Where is the letter | asked for?¡± Keh asked. Then, he thought, ¡®Does he seriously expect Dr. Quirke to treat Conrad before even taking out the letter? Does he think I¡¯m that stu pid?¡¯ 2/6 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A M% Chapter 89 ¡°Don''t worry. I''ll give it to you once Dr. Quirke is done with his leg.¡± Obviously, Hector had no intention of taking it out now. Cassandra knew that the letter was important to Keh, so... She sat down and didn¡¯t follow Hector upstairs. Hector was a little confused and unhappy at the same time. ¡°What does it mean, Dr. Quirke?¡± Cassandra ignored Hector while putting her hands together. ¡°Mr. Zelinski, this cup of coffee is so sh itty.¡± It was so tasteless. ¡°| apologize. Next time, I¡¯ll get you Volcanica Coffee or ck Ivory Coffee, so you can pick one that you like.¡± Everyone present was a little confused. Why did they start talking about coffee? Didn¡¯t theye to treat Conrad¡¯s leg? ¡°What nonsense miracle doctor is he? Did Keh choose an actor to y the miracle doctor?¡± Tyler was not at home, so she didn¡¯t bother to pretend. She directly scolded Keh harshly. ¡°Since the Zelinski family believe I¡¯m a fraud, go locate the real one!¡± Cassandra said calmly. ¡°Mrs. Zelinski, Hugo from Whitecrane Hall is here for Dr. Quirke.¡± Harriet was stunned. ¡®Is he really the miracle doctor? No, maybe Hugo is here to expose this fraud. ¡°Pleasee in.¡± Hugo approached Cassandra directly, not bothering to greet anyone! ¡°Boss, you went out without breakfast this morning. Don¡¯t do that again!¡± Upon hearing that, everyone was stunned. Faye was the only one who could make Hugo call her boss. 3/6 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You Chapter 89 He was really the miracle doctor! Hugo came and left quickly. Hector¡¯s expression eased a little, and he walked towards Faye. ¡°Dr. Quirke, do you have any other requirements? I''ll do whatever you say!¡± Cassandra sarcastically shook her head. His parents were so biased. Keh was just like her. However, he was luckier than herself. Fiona loved him very much, and Hector¡¯s favorite son was also rted to him by blood. ¡°Mr. Keh Zelinski said that upon my arrival, you will give him what he wants. Have you given it to him, Mr. Hector Zelinski?¡± Hector immediately understood. Faye was backing Keh! For the past two years, nobody had dared to mess with Keh in this home. Hector was at a loss for words. He pondered, Are Dr. Quirke and Keh close to each other?¡± ¡°I''ll give it to him since I¡¯ve promised. Please treat Conrad first, Dr. Quirke.¡± He wasn¡¯t exactly unwilling to give, but rather, he had reluctance or hesitation when it came to giving. That was the only precious thing Fiona left behind. If he gave it to Keh, he would never see it again! ¡°I''ll be happy to treat Conrad whenever you''re ready to give it to Mr. Keh Zelinski.¡± If it weren¡¯t for the letter, she wouldn¡¯t havee here! For several minutes, the two sides were in a state of deadlock, with bursts of scolding echoing from upstairs! Faye showed no sign of moving, so Hector eventually decided topromise. He went upstairs and took the letter to Keh. These Automation Tools Might Surprise You Chapter 89 Cassandra followed Hector with contentment as they made their way upstairs. She thought, ¡°Tsk, this leg... Keh indeed has a hint of mischief in him!¡± Cassandra pretended to check it and stated, ¡°It can be cured. It¡¯s not difficult.¡± Harriet was filled with joy when she heard the news that Conrad¡¯s leg could be cured. Wonderful! ¡°Dr. Quirke, please treat him as soon as possible!¡± Hector said softly, with an unwavering tone. ¡°| can treat it, but we haven''t discussed the payment yet.¡± This clearly implied that insufficient payment would result in no cure. Anyway, Keh got what he wanted. It was up to her whether she kept the promise or not. ¡°The remuneration is not an issue. Hector looked at Keh and asked, ¡°How much did you pay to cure Kayden?¡± ¡°2 billion dors, plus 600 million dors to buy the telegraph nt. Dad, you can refer to it.¡± Hector was speechless. ¡°Treating leg injury costs billions of dors?¡± ¡°As long as it can be cured, I''ll pay for it.¡± Cassandra readily agreed! She began giving Conrad treatment. However, Cassandra couldn¡¯t stand it anymore this time and eventually knocked him out! ¡°He¡¯s such a noisy grown man!¡± He was very noisy and constantlyined about the pain. He got what he deserved! ¡°Why did you knock Conrad out?¡± Harriet reached out to p Faye. ¡°If you hit me, not only will your son¡¯s legs be permanently injured, but his hands will also be broken.¡± Chapter 90 Chapter 90 Harriet suddenly forgot to move. She widened her eyes and stared at Cassandra fiercely, holding her breath. Harriet could not move. Keh said with a gloomy face, ¡°Mrs. Zelinski, if you don¡¯t want to treat Conrad, your can make it clear then. There is no need for me to invite Dr. Quirke.¡± Harriet trembled with anger. ¡°Keh, you just don¡¯t want Conrad to get better. Are you afraid that he will fight for the family property with you?¡± She became hysterical and thought that everyone here was a bad person, including Keh and Cassandra, whom he had invited. Hector¡¯s face darkened, and his eyes were full of displeasure. ¡°Harriet, what is wrong with you? You''re acting crazy. Get out!¡± He did not want her to make a fool of herself here. Harriet¡¯s face turned pale, and she held back her anger. ¡°Mrs. Zelinski, if you don¡¯t feelfortable with the treatment process, you can go out. Mr. Keh Zelinski and Mr. Hector Zelinski are here,¡± Cassandra said. Harriet hated Keh, so Cassandra also hated Harriet and Hector. As a father, Hector was unfair. He threatened his wife¡¯s son for the sake of his mistress¡¯ child. Cassandra thought the gossip of the rich family was so ridiculous. ¡°Harriet, go out first. I''ll watch from here.¡± ¡°| don¡¯t want to go out. | won¡¯t say anything,¡± Harrietpromised reluctantly. She would not leave here without Conrad. Seeing that Harriet was quiet, Cassandra continued to treat Conrad. She took out a pill and was about to feed it to Conrad, but Harriet stopped her. ¡°Wait! Don¡¯t give Conrad all the medicine. Is it safe?¡± Harriet looked disgusted.This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org. She thought, ¡®How could Conrad eat a ck pill?

Instead, she took back the pill and put it into the medicine box prepared by Hugo for her. Then, she pulled out all the needles on Conrad''s body. ¡°Mr. Keh Zelinski, Mr. Hector Zelinski, | won''t treat this disease, but the consultation fee must be paid to me in full.¡± Cassandra packed up her medicine box and walked to the door. Keh hurriedly followed. Harriet panicked and thought, ¡°This is so irresponsible!¡± ¡°What''s with your attitude? Why do you want the consultation fee afterpleting only half the treatment? You are so shameless!¡± Even if Harrict was a little panicked, she still had a stubborn attitude. Harriet thought, ¡®The Zelinski family is the world¡¯s richest family, and everyone wants to tter the Zelinski family.

After treating so many diseases, only met one arrogant person who had been questioning her during her treatment. After that, Cassandra directly quit halfway through the treatment. The person still regretted it because he could not find another miracle doctor. Harriet was the second person who had been questioning Cassandra during her treatment Rather than having so many voices of suspicion, Cassandra thought it was better to stop here. However, the consultation fee must be paid. ¡°Everyone knows the rules. As for why Mrs. Zelinski doesn¡¯t know about this, I¡¯m not sure. The consultation fee is 2 billion dors. Mr. Hector Zelinski, please pay it as soon as possible.¡± Somehow, Keh refused to get close to Cassandra, but he subconsciously wanted to stand by her, as if that was what he was supposed to do.

If | don¡¯t get the consultation fee in three days, let¡¯s see who else can treat your son.¡± After saying that, Cassandra turned around and left. No one could ask her to stay. Keh looked like he was enjoying the show, but he felt very strange. He felt that Cassandra seemed to be helping him to vent out his anger, but he and she had only met a few times and never talked much.- In the Zelinski manor, Hector¡¯s face was very gloomy. He pped Harriet in the face. ¡°Do you have any idea how hard it took for me to get Ken to agree to bring Dr. Quirke here? You are amazing. Ask the doctor you found to save Conrad then. You made Dr. Quirke, whom we invited so hard, get angry and leave. Who else do you think will treat Conrad?¡± He used his dead wife Fiona¡¯s letter to convince Keh. That was the closest thing. between him and Fiona, which had gone now. Not only was it gone, but Conrad¡¯s leg was not getting any better. ¡°How dare you hit me!¡± Harriet looked stunned and disappointed. She did not expect Hector to hit her one day. ¡°The Zelinski family is the richest family. Who doesn¡¯t want to curry favor with the Zelinski family? Why should we listen to Dr. Quirke?¡± Harriet thought, ¡®Anyway, I¡¯m right. You are too timid. It¡¯s about Conrad, and | have to be careful.¡¯ ¡°Okay. You think you can hire any miracle doctor in the name of the Zelinski family, right? Then, try it. Let¡¯s see if the Zelinski family has a good reputation, or if Keh of the Zelinski family has a strong connection!¡± Hector wondered if Harriet had forgotten how the Zelinski family got the title of the world¡¯s richest family. These Automation Tools Might Surprise You 0 7 Chapter 90 Keh got it by himself. The others had done nothing and were not qualified to judge. Hector thought. So what if the Zelinski family is the world¡¯s richest family? If Dr. Quirke really cared about background, she would treat all the princesses in the royal family. The world¡¯s richest family is nothing¡± He thought Harriet had no shame. Harriet looked pale. She thought. How could | forget it? It is not the reputation of the Zelinski family, but that of Keh. When it came to Keh. they would not only talk about the Zelinski family. However, when it came to the Zelinski family, they could only talk about Keh. The Zelinski family could not have a second man like Keh. Harriet thought. Why? How could Keh get all the benefits? ¡°Hector, what should we do?¡± The more Harriet thought about it, the more scared she became. She thought. What if Dr. Quirke doesn¡¯t want to treat Conrad? We had invited a top doctor here but couldn¡¯t cure Conrad! But now, Dr. Quirke... | have no idea. Solve it yourself.¡± Hector decided to stand by and do nothing. This was because he had nothing Keh cared about. It would be difficult for him to see Keh in this life. But it did not matter as long as he could see Keh was doing well. ¡°Hector, you have to help me and Conrad. I...¡± Harriet did not mean that. She was just too worried and panicked. ¡°You need to handle it yourself. | can¡¯t help it!¡± Hector turned around and went out. He could not help it anyway. These Automation Tools Might Sur Chapter 91 Chapter 91 Keh took Cassandra back to Whitecrane Hall. ¡°Dr. Quirke, since you know Cassie, do you know what she likes?¡± Keh thought he did not know Cassandra enough, so he wanted to learn more from her friends. Cassandra thought, ¡°What?¡± Cassandra was a little confused. She wondered why Keh wanted to ask about her. She was worried that it was not what she thought. ¡°Cassie?¡± Cassandra pretended that she did not who Keh was asking about. ¡°Cassandra.¡± Cassandra was quiet. She thought, ¡®It¡¯s really me. What¡¯s going on?¡¯ ¡°Why did Mr. Zelinski ask about Cassie?¡± Cassandra asked indifferently as if it was none of her business. ¡°She¡¯s a very important person to me, although she forgot about me... Keh blurted. out. He wondered why he would confide it to a stranger. Although Keh was a little frustrated, he did not salvage it. ¡°Dr. Quirke, | hope you can keep it secret.¡± Cassandra did not say anything. She wondered, ¡®Mr. Zelinski said he knew me. When did this happen? Why didn¡¯t | know | had amnesia? | really don¡¯t remember at all. Why is that? When did we meet? Why cheid | feel like Mr. Zelinski missed that time so much?

If there¡¯s nothing else, I''ll get out of the car first.¡± Cassandra unfastened her seat belt. ¡°By the way, if those living in the Zelinski manor still want to find you, just say that there is nothing you can do. The miracle. doctor doesn¡¯t want to heal the Zelinski family. Cassandra thought, Just let me take the me. Who else can touch me?¡± ¡°Thank you for thinking about me, Dr. Quirke.¡± ¡°You don¡¯t have to thank me!¡± Cassandra went back to her room, took off the disguised clothes, and put on the T-shirt and a pair of har em pants that she wore in the morning, looking like an unemployed erson. ¡°You''re back?¡± Jeremiah saw ine. He thought it was rare. ¡°Yes. | ended the treatment early.¡± Jeremiah got it all at once! He thought, ¡®Who are they? How dare they offend her so much?¡± ¡°Do you need to clean up?¡± ¡°What do you think?¡± Cassandra thought this kind of question was bulls hit. ¡°By the way, please help me check whether Keh has been to Roond Vige within ten years.¡± Cassandra was sure that she had never met anyone outside the vige before Blossom¡¯s incident. She knew Jeremiah during the period when Blossom had the incident. Moreover, when Blossom died, Cassandra had never dealt with anyone else during the time she went abroad! At that time, she only wanted to learn what she had mastered as soon as possible and she did not want to make any friends. Hence, it was impossible for her to know Keh abroad. Then there was only Roond Vige! These Automation Tools Might Surprise You Wed, 21 Feb Chapter 91 Cassandra also wanted to know where she had met Keh. Jeremiah was stunned. ¡°Why do you want to investigate him?¡± ¡°It''s nothing. Please just help me check it out.¡± Cassandra waszy to do it herself. Jeremiah was at a loss for words. Just as they were about to say something more, Hugo came out. D ¡°Ms. Yates, the school has asked you to return to the school to take a graduation photo. Do you need to go back?¡± It was less than a week before SAT. Hugo thought it was a waste of time to take a graduation photo shoot at this time. Cassandra thought for a while and said, ¡°Go.¡± When they arrived at school in the afternoon, everyone was present, including Christine who had been grounded by Benjamin and Miranda. ¡°Christy, are you okay? | wanted to visit youst time, but your parents didn¡¯t let me go,¡± Yulissa whispered in grievance.. What Yulissa meant was Christine¡¯s family was so disgusting because she cared about Christine so much and thought of Christine as a friend but Benjamin and Miranda shut her out. Unexpectedly, Christine was not as enthusiastic as usual. Instead, she withdrew her hand coldly and looked at the ckboard. ¡°Oh, yeah? That may be because I¡¯m studying, so my parents don¡¯t want me to be disturbed by an outsider.¡± Yulissa was unhappy when she heard that. She thought, ¡®Outsider?¡± ¡°Christy, what are you talking about? Aren¡¯t we best friends? How can we be outsiders?¡± Yulissa was very ufortable and secretly med Christine for being crazy and ignoring her! ¡°For people other than my family, they are all outsiders.¡± Christine might have been educated by Benjamin and Miranda during this period of time, and Yulissa¡¯s recent activity on Twitter made Christinepletely understand 3/5 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You 12:53 Wed, 21 Feb Chapter 91 what kind of person Yulissa was! In addition to taking a graduation photo today, the most important thing Christine wanted to do was to apologize to Cassandra! As soon as Cassandra entered the door, she attracted a lot of attention. She felt ufortable being stared at by the people! ¡°Cassandra!¡± Christine stopped her. Cassandra thought, ¡®Is she going to pick a fight? Didn''t her parents say they would discipline her? n? 2024 N?v/el/Dram/a.Org. Christine held a small gift box in her hand. ¡°I¡¯m sorry. | listened to Yulissa back then and thought you always bullied her. As her best friend, | always wanted to bully you to avenge her. However, after what happened during this period of time. | feel like a complete fool, so | really want to apologize to you again. When | heard that we wereing back to take the graduation photo, | did this myself. | hope you can ept it!¡± Christine handed the delicately wrapped box of cookies to Cassandra! Cassandra was stunned and said coldly, ¡°Why do you think | will forgive you as long as you apologize?¡± On the contrary, Christine shook her head and smiled. ¡°I didn¡¯t think so. | just hope you can forgive me. | don¡¯t want you to let go of what happened before because of my words. | never thought of this. | would slowly make it up to youter.¡± Now that Christine decided to apologize and make up for it, she would do what she said! Yulissa was shocked by Christine¡¯s action! She thought, ¡°Isn¡¯t she pping me in the face?¡± Everyone knew her best friend was Christine. But now, Christine ignored Yulissa¡¯s thoughts and apologized to Cassandra! Yulissa felt very embarrassed! ¡°Cassandra, Christy has apologized for what happened before. Please forgive her.¡± No one could beat Yulissa when it came to shamelessness and having a sense of presence! These Automation Tools Might Surprise You Wed, 21 Feb Chapter 91 ¡°Yulissa, don¡¯t go against Cassic. Who do you think you are?¡± Cassandra did not intend to ept the gift, but when she heard Jeremiah say that, she changed her mind! Then, Cassandra took the little gift from Christine. ¡°Don¡¯t think | will forgive you. | hope you seed in the next four years in university.¡± Cassandra did not forgive Christine now. She just wanted to make Yulissa angry. ¡°Okay, don¡¯t worry. | will try my best!¡± Christine returned to her seat happily! ¡°By the way, Yulissa, you and Frederick¡¯s second court session should be decided, right?¡± June 10 was the second court session. There was such a long interval because the parties had to take part in SAT. The court considered that both parties had to take part in SAT, so the court postponed the time. The court could not affect the mood of the examinees before SAT! SEND GIFT Chapter 92 Chapter 92 During the graduation photo shoot in the afternoon, Christine approached Cassandra with great enthusiasm. ¡°Yulissa, can | stand with you?¡± She preferred Cassandra, who openly expressed her emotions, over Yulissa¡¯s hypocritical and affected demeanor. Deep in thought, Christine reflected, Fortunately, Mom made me turn around in time. If | hadn¡¯t seen through Yulissa¡¯s true colors, | might have been unwittingly used as a pawn in the future. Cassandra, caught off guard by this unexpected response, was taken aback. ¡°You don¡¯t have to be so enthusiastic, she thought. Some wounds, once inflicted, endure a lifetime, making forgiveness a challenging endeavor.? 2024 N?v/el/Dram/a.Org. Nheless, Cassandra found it difficult to resist the genuine enthusiasm of others. ¡°|...¡± Christine¡¯s words were abruptly cut off by Yulissa. ¡°Christy, can | stand with you? Let''s take a graduation photo together.¡± Yulissa walked up to Christine with a pitiful expression, cliciting sympathy from the male ssmates. To them, every girl is susceptible to making mistakes, especially someone as beautiful and gentle as Yulissa. While any mistake is deemed forgivable, the question remains. Why did those girls have to be so assertive? In her thoughts, Yulissa considered, ¡®Christine don¡¯t believe she would end our friendship Duldn¡¯t possibly reject me in public. | just like that! ¡°| already have someone next to me. You can stand with the other ssmates,¡± Christine replied. ¡®She turned me down! What¡¯s happening? Does Christine truly value her friendship. with Cassandra to this extent? Why?¡¯ Yulissa pondered silently. She was disheartened by the rejection, and called out to Christine, ¡°Christy...¡± ¡°I''ll just stand behind you, Cassandra, and won''t disturb you,¡± Christine remarked. 175 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You Chapter 92 Internally, she contemted, ¡®Anyway, I''ll stand a bit taller behind, so height won''t be an issue. She was eager to mend her friendship with Cassandra and make it up to her. Cassandra said in a casual tone, ¡°Suit yourself.¡± Soon after taking the graduation photos, they returned to the ssroom. As Cassandra was getting ready to go home, so was Christine. Theresa had assured Cassandra that Christine would not show up before SAT. This time, an exception was made for the graduation photos, as Theresa believed Christine genuinely wanted to apologize to Cassandra. Agenuinely remorseful person deserved forgiveness. Fortunately, Christine hadn¡¯t descended into deeper misconduct and had avoidedmitting more egregious acts. Otherwise, redemption might have been impossible. She held the belief that in time, Cassandra¡¯s kind nature would lead to forgiveness. However, just as she was about to depart, someone obstructed her path. Yulissa feigned concern and said, ¡°Christy, how''s your review at home? Do you want toe back to school thesest few days? Let''s make a final push together.¡± Yulissa spoke with apparent sincerity, aiming to sway Christine¡¯s decision. Aware that Cassandra wouldn''t return, she saw an opportunity to influence Christine during those days. ¡®Trying to cozy up to Cassandra? No chance!¡¯ Yulissa brooded inwardly. ¡°Yeah, Christine and Cassandra, you two are so out of touch. We''re about to graduate, and you can¡¯t just not be with us, your ssmates, right? We need to discuss the post- graduation gathering, and without the two of you around, we can¡¯t get your opinions,¡± a male ssmate chimed in. He could not bear to see Yulissa¡¯s disappointed expression. ¡°You guys can decide on the gathering. Just inform me when it¡¯s finalized. | won¡¯t being these two days due to the intensive review arranged at home,¡± Christine responded. 2/5 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A Wed, 21 Feb Chapter 92 inquired one student. ¡°Talking about past incidentscks fairness. Why should someone who doesn''t integrate well be favored by others?¡± remarked another student. ¡°So, what do you all want to do? Repeat history? Cassandra hasn¡¯t said anything from start to finish. All of you surrounding her, trying to y the heroes. Disperse and go back to your seats for revision!¡± With a dark expression, he instructed them to return. Samuel was a little angry. ¡°This group of people seems to have nothing better to do.¡± Christine and Cassandra then left. Upon returning to Springmount Townhouse, Hugo was already at home. ¡°Hugo, why are you back today?¡± Cassandra inquired, expressing her surprise. Although she had been home for a while, Hugo hardly returned, choosing to stay in a different mansion instead. The main reason was to avoid arousing suspicions. If anyone noticed him frequentlying and going with Cassandra, rumors could easily spread. ¡°Ms. Yates, you¡¯re back. | have something to discuss with you,¡± he addressed. Cassandra sat across from Hugo and asked, ¡°Tell me, what''s up?¡± After pondering for a moment, Hugo began, ¡°Today, someone from the Zelinski family came, expressing the hope that you could extend your assistance in their treatment...¡± Before he couldplete his sentence, he was interrupted. ¡°No, | won''t go. If they don¡¯t show up with the consultation fee the day after tomorrow, you should know what to do.¡± From the start, she had no desire to treat Conrad, especially since Keh had disclosed that his father had threatened him with a letter from his mother. Moreover, despite her diligent efforts, she couldn¡¯t uncover any information. Otherwise, she wouldn''t have agreed to go. Healing a disguised wolf would only amplify its deceitful nature. Considering Harriet¡¯s stance, it appeared as if the entire Zelinski family was already under Conrad''s control.

Keh had been kind to her, so she was determined to protect what belonged to him. ¡°Yes, | understand.¡± Hugo replied. It appeared that Cassandra would not continue with the treatment. However, that was simply her character. After all, Tyler took advantage of his past favors, requesting assistance, and Hugo had indeed helped when asked. ¡®If Ms. Yates disagrees, then it¡¯s not my problem, Hugo contemted privately.

SEND GIFT Chapter 93 Chapter 93 The next day, at the Zelinski manor, as soon as Tyler hung up the phone, Hector and Harriet became impatient. ¡°How is it, Tyler? Did you hear anything from Hugo?¡± Harriet asked anxiously. She thought, ¡®Da mn it! What kind of a nonsense miracle doctor is she? She was so irresponsible. How could she just leave? She even asked for a consultation fee. If my son hadn¡¯t woke up screaming about his legs, | wouldn¡¯t have searched for a miracle doctor all! at However, none of the top doctors they found from the day before to that day itself had a cure for Conrad''s illness. Conrad cried and made a scene of asking them to get Faye back. However, Keh was done helping them. He didn¡¯t even answer the phone anymore. He made it clear that only one thing could be exchanged for one condition. Hector was frustrated, for he had nothing exchangeable. He and his father were both responsible for Conrad¡¯s current situation. ¡°No. Hugo said that Dr. Quirke didn¡¯t agree to continue the treatment.¡± Hugo was only an assistant and could not interfere with Faye¡¯s decision. And that was already for the sake of him helping Hugo back then. Otherwise, no onc would have gone to Hugo directly to look for the miracle doctor. It was an unwritten rule. If people all over the world wanted to take a shortcut and went to Hugo to ask for Faye¡¯s help, wouldn''t she be so busy that she wouldn¡¯t have the time. to catch her breath? ¡°She didn¡¯t agree when you''re the one who asked?¡± Hector looked a little gloomy. He didn¡¯t expect Faye to be so adamant and difficult to hire. ¡°| only owe Hugo a favor. It¡¯s already a feat for me to know Dr. Quirke¡¯s take on this from him. Do you think she will agree if I''m the one who asks?¡± Tyler hated to admit it, but Keh was the reason behind the Zelinski family¡¯s current status.

Although unwilling, he had to admit that every generation had its own genius. Keh had brought the Zelinski family to a new height. He couldvishly spend 2 billion dors without blinking and befriend the people around the miracle doctor, showcasing his ability and extensivework. Yet, those achievements were Keh¡¯s and Keh¡¯s alone. Without him, the Zelinski family couldn¡¯t be brilliant. Dragging the timeline to an earlier point, the Zelinski family wouldn''t even exist without Fiona. It was the Zelinski family that had done wrong to Keh and Fiona, Harriet panicked at the sudden change of the situation. She stood in front of Tyler with tears streaming down her face and pleaded with grief, ¡°Dad, you can¡¯t leave Conrad like this. He is only in his twenties and definitely can¡¯t live in a wheelchair for the rest of his life!¡± How could Conrad''s life be destroyed like that? He was still so young. ¡°Yes, it¡¯s all Keh¡¯s fault. Since Keh was the one who crip pled Rad''s leg, he should be responsible for it. If Conrad¡¯s leg can¡¯t be cured, then it should be reced with Keh¡¯s!¡± Harriet thought viciously, ¡®It was all because of Keh! How can he be so cruel? Didn¡¯t anything happen to him? Can''t we bury the hatchet on this matter? Yet, what did he do? He had someone crip le Conrad! What a ruthless person!¡¯ Hector shouted, ¡°Bas t ard! What are you saying? Have you actually pondered as to who caused all this? If you hadn¡¯t sent someone to kill Ken, would he have retaliated against Conrad? Ask yourself. When did you not strike first? Ken was just defending himself! Don¡¯t treat me and Dad as fools. We all know what you did behind our backs!¡± His clear understanding of the entire picture was why he knew how challenging the path that Keh had trudged through was. He had no right to ask him for anything. Harriet¡¯s face paled. Panic filled her eyes with a hint of guilt. She wondered in shock, ¡°They all knew?¡± ¡°You and Dad knew? Then, why did you let me do what | did?¡± 2/5 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You 12:53 Wed, 21 Feb 6 G.

All she felt was the empty feeling that she was never more than a tool for the family to train Keh and had never been regarded as a family member. Her son never had a chance to contend for the inheritance right from the start. How pathetic! For the next few days, Raymond went to Whitecrane Hall every day in disguise to treat his hand. Yohannes wanted to see if he had a chance to perform andpete, but there was no hope. Leonardo could finally talk and wanted nothing more than to argue with Cassandra immediately. However, he had something more important to ask Benjamin. ¡°Dad, did you sell all of the shares under our names?¡± One couldn''t me him for being suspicious. After Raymond¡¯s and Yohannes''¡¯ shares. had been sold, Benjaminplied with theirs. He found that the shares under his name had disappeared when he checked them the day before. Even the ones under his brothers were all all gone. Benjamin choked. His expression turned guilty as if he had been caught red-handed, so he asked awkwardly, ¡°Why do you ask?¡± Upon seeing that his father didn¡¯t want to admit it, Leonardo felt annoyed and exined, ¡°| checked my assets, and there were no shares of Yates Group or Blossom Group listed under my name.

Therefore, he got up early in the morning to make breakfast and checked her pencil. case, exam admission ticket, 2B pencils, ballpoint pens, erasers, and the necessary tools for the mathematics exams. However, Hugo was speechless when he saw thepasses and the other stationaries. In truth, Cassandra didn¡¯t need them at all. That was because she could draw better without the instruments. Not long after he checked through everything, Cassandra got up on time at seven-thirty in the morning and finished breakfast before eight o''clock. ¡°Ms. Yates, today is SAT, so we have to leave early and can¡¯t get stuck in traffic.¡± It wouldn¡¯t harm to go early for such an important asion. ¡°Hugo, calm down,¡± Cassandra reminded.

Parents and students gathered outside the exam venue. At that instance, the parents. just parents who came were no longer executives in the boardroom. Instead, they weance, the parents to send their children to take SAT. The early morning sunshine was somewhat dazzling. Many parents held books or parasols to shield their children from the blinding sun. That was probably the most concerted moment for all parents. Cassandra got out of the car and saw that exact scene. She had to say that she was actually a little envious. However, as soon as Cassandra took two steps forward, a motorcycle suddenly rushed out from the right and headed straight for her. It felt as if the action was on purpose. Cassandra reacted quickly and leaned back. slightly. When the motorcyclist saw that he didn¡¯t hit her, he quickly braked and continued to charge toward Cassandra. That confirmed that it was deliberate. Cassandra couldn''t dodge the iing collision. Just when she thought the motorcycle would crash into her, suddenly, someone appeared behind her and pulled her. It was Cyrus. ¡°Call the police!¡± Yulissa¡¯s features twisted into a vicious mask when she, hiding in the dark, saw that Cassandra had been saved. Creases appeared on her dress from how hard she grasped it. She cussed internally, ¡®Da mn it! How could she be so lucky? | won''t have another chance if | fail this time. Cyrus looked at Cassandra with concern and snapped, ¡°What¡¯s wrong with you? Are you waiting for that motorcycle to hit you?¡± Jeremiah was also dumbfounded. When he moved to save Cassandra, it was already toote. These Automation Tools Might Surprise You Wed, 21 Feb Chapter 94 However, it was the first time Jeremiah had seen Cyrus get so angry. ¡°|... | don¡¯t know what I¡¯m thinking. = Her mind nked out for a moment.

Did you know how dangerous that was back there?¡± Cyrus choked up for a moment at the thought, wanting to tear into Cassandra, but he couldn''t. Cassandra knew that her acting like a sitting duck earlier had angered him, but she still said indifferently. I¡¯m fine.¡± ¡°Are you sure you''re all right? Are you hurt anywhere?¡± Cyrus was worried, so he asked Hugo to check on her. After confirming that she wasn¡¯t hurt anywhere, he felt a sense of relief. ¡°Go and take your exam. I''ll take care of the rest.¡± ¡°And me. I''ll handle it with Cyrus. It¡¯s obvious that this motorcyclist is aiming for you deliberately. Don¡¯t worry-I won''t let anyone who tries to hurt you go unscathed.¡± Jeremiah hurriedly added as he thought, ¡®How can | miss this opportunity to take care of my sister?¡¯ ¡°Okay. You should focus your investigation around Yulissa, then.¡± She hadn''t offended anyone except the Yates family since arriving at Drieso. Therefore, she couldn''t think Of anyone who wanted to hurt her except them. The one who eagerly wanted her dead was Yulissa. Cassandra, apanied by Hugo, walked to the school gate. The parents looked at Cassandra in disbelief, thinking that it was amazing that she could survive such a precarious situation. They thought, ¡®That motorcyclist is out of line! That girl almost got hurt today on SAT day. She would have missed it if she were seriously injured! This examination is one of the most important moments in life!¡± These Automation Tools Might Surprise You 12:53 Wed, 21 Feb o Chapter 94 Akind woman asked with concern. ¡°Are you all right, miss?¡± Cassandra smiled gently and replied politely. ¡°Thank you for your concern.

Frederick and Matthew couldn''t attend becaus one was working at an event while the other was fighting for resources with his business rivals. However, Yulissa was definitely eye-catching, with so many people sending her off to take the exam. However, as soon as she neared Cassandra, she caught her saying that she had called the police. She wondered anxiously, ¡®Called the police? They won''t find out about me, right? No, that¡¯s impossible! When | struck a deal with the motorcyclist, | checked his phone to make sure he didn¡¯t have any recordings. What''s more, there were no surveince cameras where we met up. So, | don¡¯t think they¡¯ll find out I¡¯m the one behind it. As long as the motorcyclist keeps his mouth shut and doesn¡¯t give me up, everything will be fine! Dam n it! | can¡¯t believe Cassandra is uninjured and even called the police!¡± ¡°Cassandra, it''s inappropriate to call the police on such an important day as SAT,¡± Yulissa abruptly chimed in. She insinuated that everything should be cast aside on a big day like SAT and that Cassandra calling the police was only going to dy the exams. ¡°Yulissa, you really only remember the benefits and forget about the lessons you. learned. | told you not to talk to me. Don¡¯t you understand?¡± Cassandra nced at her sideways and said. ¡°Am | supposed to make a police report after the ident instead of on the spot? Do you have anymon sense? Do you know how many police officers are outside to escort examinees to the exam venue on SAT day? Do you know how convenient it is for them to arrest people?¡± SEND GIFT Chapter 95 Chapter 95 Cassandra¡¯s words made Yulissa dumbfounded. To the examinees of SAT that year, there were green lights almost all the way to the venue that day as everyone was serving them. Yulissa suddenly regretted why she had chosen to make her move that day. At other times, however, there was no chance that Cassandra would go to school. She could not find a chance to make her move. Springmount Townhouse was so well-secured that she never had a chance to do it. Besides, she could not ask her brothers for help. Their hate for Cassandra was a different matter. Asking them to harm Cassandra would make them feel that she was malicious. There was no way she could let that happen. Therefore, she had no choice but to make her move that day. However, her n did not work at all as Cassandra was too vignt and had many people protecting her. ¡°You''re so lucky to have so many cavaliers around you, Cassandra-not like me. | only have our parents and brothers to protect me.¡± Yulissa began to provoke Cassandra again, hinting that Cassandra led a promiscuous life. At the same time, Yulissa¡¯s words also made the look in the eyes of people who used to sympathize with Cassandra''s earlier change. They thought, ¡®She has so many cavaliers... Doesn¡¯t that mean her personal life is ina mess? She¡¯s a high school student. What a pity that she¡¯s such a good-looking girl!¡± ¡°How strange you are, Yulissa. When | was almost killed, you only cared about why someone around me showed up to save me instead of asking if the culprit had been caught. Oh, by the way, you just told me not to call the police. Why? Are you the one who sent the person here? Otherwise, why did you defend the culprit like that?¡± Cassandra¡¯s words made Yulissa¡¯s expression change. Thetter''s face turned pale and weak, looking more sickly in the sunshine. Miranda stood up and scolded, ¡°Mind your words. Lisa only cares about you. Don¡¯t be 115 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You KS71%S Chapter 95 ungrateful. You should have just let yourself be terminated in the car ident and not make a fool of yourself here.¡± Cassandra narrowed her eyes at Miranda, exuding a cold aura. ¡°Mrs. Yates, | can sew your mouth up for you if nothing goodes out of it.¡± Miranda was instantly agitated. ¡°How can you say that? I¡¯m your mother. Look at your attitude. Lisa is right. You hang out with those indecent and shady people every day. What a disgrace!¡± ¡°Ma''am, are you saying I¡¯m indecent and shady?¡± Cyrus suddenly appeared behind Cassandra. Although Miranda did not know Cyrus, both Benjamin and Leonardo did. Their expressions turned gloomy. ¡°Who are you to talk to me?¡± Miranda was very arrogant. She thought that the man before her was a pretty boy who only had good looks. ¡°Who am I? Why don¡¯t you let Mr. Yates introduce me to you?¡± Cyrus shifted his gaze to Benjamin, who looked a little awkward. ¡°Right, Mr. Yates?¡± ¡°Mr. Jacobs, my wife just cares about her daughter and doesn¡¯t mean anything else.¡± The woman who was concerned about Cassandra carlier frowned and bellowed, ¡°You said you were her mother? Is this how you behave as a mother? How could you curse your own daughter to death? | don¡¯t think you deserve to be a mother at all!¡± She protected Cassandra behind her and continued, ¡°It¡¯s all this miss¡¯ bad luck to have a mother like you. | can tell you have both sons and daughters. | wonder how they can stand you. Cursing your own daughter and still regarding yourself as a mother... So. shameful of you!¡± The feeling of being defended was good. At that moment, Cassandra felt a surge of warmth in her heart. ¡°Thank you for defending me, madam. I¡¯m fine. Cassandra turned sideways and walked up to Miranda. She nced at Yulissa and said, ¡°I hope you can still be so arrogant after the exam. Then, she continued coldly, ¡°Mrs. Yates, if you don¡¯t want the Yates family to lose thatst bit of dignity, you¡¯d better shut up.¡± She wanted to focus on SAT and left everything else after that. These Automation Tools Might Surprise You Chapter 95 Leonardo and Benjamin stopped Miranda, so she did not continue to speak anymore. When it was time to enter the exam venue, the woman reminded her daughter of something before giving Cassandra her blessing. ¡°Miss, focus on your exam. Don¡¯t be bothered by those insignificant people. Good luck!¡± Cassandra nodded and expressed her gratitude. ¡°ine, focus on your exam first. Let me solve those frustrating things out here for you. I''ll find out the perpetrators and the real culprit. If | don¡¯t bring them to justice, I''ll have betrayed your trust in me.¡± Cyrus¡¯ assurance was rewarded with a faint smile from Cassandra, showing that she had heard him. His words, however, made Yulissa¡¯s heart begin to pound heavily. She thought, ¡®Who the hell is this guy? Dad seemed a little scared just now. But why does he listen to Cassandra? As | expected, she¡¯s a bi tch and even seduced so many men. to listen to her. How shameless!¡¯ ¡°Dad, Mom, Leo, Jace, I¡¯m going in. You guys should go back first. It¡¯s so hot here. Don¡¯t get heatstroke. | can do it alone,¡± Yulissa said with concern. Miranda took the lead to respond, ¡°Silly girl, your SAT is a big deal. How can we not be here? Don¡¯t worry. Your dad, brothers, and | will wait for you toe out here.¡± She thought that Yulissa was excellent and thus would be the first one toe out from the exam venue. At that time, the reporter from Drieso TV station might interview. Yulissa and even set up a persona of being a top student for her. Those nders in the past could be unraveled by then. That was why she would never miss such an opportunity to make an appearance. However, she did not expect that Yulissa, who was sitting in the exam venue, would start to think wildly as soon as she calmed down. Yulissa whispered inwardly, ¡®Cassandra¡¯s 1564 points... Why didn¡¯t the motorcyclist hit her? What if he confesses and tells them about me as the culprit?¡¯ The first exam was the literature exam. Yulissa was so anxious that she did not write aposition in the end, let alone check her answers in the earlier section. ¡®Oh, no! How could this happen? There¡¯s only ten minutes left. What should | do? Why didn¡¯t | finish it?¡¯ she asked herself. These Automation Tools Might Surprise You Chapter 3 The more Yulissa thought about it, the more anxious she became. The teacher warned her because she had too much movements No one knew what had happened at her exam venue. However, when the examinees were allowed to hand in their papers. Cassandra was the first to put down hers, signal by raising her hand, and leave During the first exam. the literature exam, she was the first person to leave the exam Venue. The reporters immediately swarmed toward her. Miss, as the first examinee to hand in your paper, do you have anything to say ¡°Miss, you came out as soon as the first bell rang. Does that mean you have great confidence?¡±N?velDrama.Org: owner of this content. ¡°Were today¡¯s questions easy ¡°Miss, could you please answer our questions?¡± The microphone almost touched Cassandra¡¯s face, which made her a little ufortable. ¡°Excuse me, please!¡± It was Cyrus, shielding Cassandra behind him and trying not to let her be disturbed by reporters. Suddenly, a voice rang out. ¡°It¡¯s not difficult. Just treat it as a normal test. The reporters were speechless. Cyrus, too, was stumped for words. He thought, ¡®Cassie, do you know the difficulty of your understanding is different from that of normal people? You''re really giving the candidates of this batch a hard time!¡± Areporter who seemed to be livestreaming the scene turned around and said to the camera. ¡°We can see that the first examinee who came out of the exam venue... Well. let''s wait and see!¡± 4/5 Chapter 96 Chapter 96 In the airport waiting room, Keh sat on the couch in a gray suit and watched the live broadcast of SAT. Seeing Cassandra walk out of the exam venue, he looked proud of her. However, the moment he saw the person who suddenly appeared in front of Cassandra when the reporter interviewed her, his expression immediately became malicious. Yannick was puzzled by the sight and wondered, ¡®It¡¯s the live broadcast of SAT. Why did Mr. Zelinski¡¯s expression keep changing? Even kids¡¯ expressions don¡¯t change so fast like him.¡¯ ¡°Who is this person?¡± Keh asked. Yannick and Kayden stretched their heads over curiously and nced at the person on the screen. Both of them fell silent. Yannick felt like replying to Keh that he had no idea who the person was. Yet, before Yannick could speak, Kayden, almost showing Keh a despising look that Keh was outdated, interrupted, ¡°You don¡¯t know him? Ken, can you pay a little attention to the wealth list or outstanding youth?¡± Keh was rendered speechless, wondering why he should care about those as they had nothing to do with him. ¡°He¡¯s Cyrus Jacobs, the vice CEO of Modern Beacon Synergy. His identity is no worse than yours.¡± Kayden nced at the video again and continued, ¡°Thist guy likes Cassandra. Look how he defends her.¡± What he said made Keh¡¯s expression change. He thought, ¡®He likes Cassie? Is he worthy of that? He¡¯s only a vice CEO. Modern Beacon Synergy, huh? There¡¯s no need for it to exist anymore.¡± ¡°Yannick, get someone to fight against Modern Beacon Synergy with everything we''ve got!¡± Keh gave the order. ¡°Hey, you''ve gone too far, Ken. Aren¡¯t you afraid that Cassandra will be angry with you if she finds out?¡± Kayden¡¯s gloating expression looked utterly annoying. These Automation Tools Might Surprise You 12:54 Wed, 21 Feb Chapter 96 ¡°Then don¡¯t let her know. Arrange it now.¡± Anyway, the ne would not take off untilter. But when Keh got back, it would be half a monthter. He had to keep the man named Cyrus busy until he could not find Cassandra. Cassandra and him must not be given the chance to spend time alone. ¡°Yes!¡± Yannick and Kayden thought Keh had made up his mind. Keh suddenly did not want to go on a mission, as his girlfriend was about to run. away with another man. However, military orders were absolute and could not be disobeyed. An hourter, the three of them got on a ne and arrived at the borderline between Zosteylor and Clusia. When they showed up once again, the three of them were already in battle suits. In front of them were all the members of Falcon Special Operations Force. Including the three of them, there were 121 people in total. Kayden trotted up to the team in his standard jogging posture. ¡°At ease!¡±This belongs ?

Have you heard them clearly?¡± ¡°Yes!¡± everyone shouted again in unison. ¡°Next, Deputy Commander Yates will make detailed arrangements.¡± With Keh as themander-in-chief, Yannick led 80 people to assist in Evacuation Operation, and Kayden led the remaining 38 people to escort the researchers back home safely. Nothing must go wrong with the two missions. ¡°All right. Next, we will split into two groups and vow to...¡± ¡°Complete the missions!¡± After the previous interview, no reporter was willing to interview Cassandra in every exam she took. That was because they felt that their intelligence was being crushed. Cassandra kept saying that one could do the paper as long as the person had a brain. It was indeed not a way of thinking that a normal person could understand. The two-day SAT finally came to an end. However, Cyrus unexpectedly did not show up after thest exam. Cassandra did not mind that, though. Nheless, she now found that Keh hadn''t been around recently and that the mansion next door seemed to be empty. She wondered if he had been to somewhere. When she was lost in thought, Leonardo, Jasper, Yohannes, and Raymond went up to her. It was hard to believe if they imed they did not n for it. Yohannes politely handed the sunflowers to Cassandra and said, ¡°Congrattions, 3/5 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A 12:54 Wed, 21 Feb UG Chapter 961 Cassie!¡± Raymond handed over a small gift. ¡°Congrattions!¡± However, Cassandra did not reach out to receive them but asked impatiently instead, ¡°What do you mean by this?¡± ¡°Cassie, don¡¯t get us wrong.

It¡¯s just a token from us!¡± Cassandra did not even spare it a nce. ¡°I don¡¯t need it.¡± ¡°Yohan, Ray, is this a gift for me?¡± Yulissa came from behind. Like the rest of the troops, she did note out until it was time.. However, as soon as she came out, she saw Yohannes and Ray sending gifts to Cassandra. There was no way she could allow that to happen. ¡°No!¡± Yohannes replied. ¡°Wow! What a beautiful flower! | like it so much!¡± Yulissa sna tched the flowers from Yohannes¡¯ hand and smelled them before saying happily, ¡°They smell so good. Thank you, Yohan!¡± Yohannes was speechless and whispered inwardly, ¡®How shameless! Forget it. Cassie doesn¡¯t like it anyway. I''ll just treat it as throwing trash.¡± ¡°Ray, is this my favorite Tiffany bracelet? | know you treat me best!¡± Since Cassandra rejected Raymond''s gift, he had been holding it in his hand, and the logo on the gift box was revealed. Yulissa took away the gift and showed off happily. Raymond quickly said, ¡°Yulissa, this is not for you. Give it back to me!¡± Even if Cassandra did not like that gift, he would rather throw it into the trash can than give it to Yulissa. He thought she did not deserve a gift of 600 thousand dors. ¡°Ray, what are you talking about? Lisa likes the gift you bought. What''s wrong with giving it to her?¡± Jasper looked unhappy. He thought, ¡®What¡¯s wrong with Yohan and Ray recently? It¡¯s fine if they moved out, but 4/5 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You S71%A Chapter 96 they even took the initiative to please Cassandra now. Are they out of their mind?¡¯ ¡°Jace, since Yulissa likes it, you can buy it for her. Why is she snat ching mine away?¡± Raymond sna tched the gift box over and handed it to Cassandra. ¡°It¡¯s just a small gift. Take it as a token of gratitude for helping us to get Dr. Quirke¡¯s help.¡± Cassandra said. ¡°For me? So | can do whatever | want with it, right? She received the gift box and opened it. It was a diamond bracelet, gleaming brightly in the sunlight. ¡®No wonder Yulissa likes it!¡¯ she whispered inwardly. Then, she broke the bracelet in half and threw it precisely into the trash can. ¡°Garbage should stay where it belongs.¡± Raymond''s ¡®s eyes were filled with disappointment. He did not expect Cassandra to hate. him so much. ¡°Cassandra, how can you repay Ray¡¯s kindness like this? Do you know how expensive. that bracelet is?¡± said Yulissa. At the same time, she thought, ¡®What a country bumpkin! Even if she used the identity. of ine, it couldn¡¯t change her bumpkin immanence.

What are you trying to achieve by bringing it up?¡± Before Cassandra could speak, Raymond retorted directly to Yulissa! Yulissa was not very adept at choosing her words. It was too obvious that she wanted to cause conflict! Raymond couldn''tprehend why he hadn¡¯t noticed it carlier. Yulissa¡¯s face turned pale upon hearing her brother¡¯s words, and the bouquet in her hand almost fell to the ground! ¡°What''s going on? How could Ray say such a thing? He has gone too far!¡± she thought. Tears started to well in Yulissa¡¯s eyes, making her look pathetic at that moment. ¡°Raymond, you''ve gone too far. Why are you criticizing Lisa? Cassandra¡¯s actions are equivalent to humiliating her!¡± Jasper then turned to Cassandra and scolded, ¡°And you. You can¡¯t throw it away if you don¡¯t want it. You know Lisa likes it!

After all, he was aware that she had always desired their recognition. Now that they had acknowledged her identity, he assumed that she wouldn¡¯t cause trouble again in the future. Unfortunately, Cassandra merely snorted upon hearing that and said, ¡°Mr. Yates, do you think the status of being the eldest daughter of the Yates family is very honorable? Do you think | would care about it?¡± Leonardo didn¡¯t know how to respond to that. ¡°You...¡± ¡®She¡¯s right. Cassandra disdains the status as a member of the Yates family now!¡¯ he recalled.

How much money did Cassandra give you to frame my daughter like this?¡± Miranda didn¡¯t believe every word he said! In her mind, her baby daughter wouldn¡¯t do something like that and everything said. was a mere setup! ¡°When ites to money, it was Ms. Yates who provided the funds. She initially paid at deposit of 100 thousand dors and assured me she''d transfer the remaining 200 thousand dors after the job waspleted. If you need proof, it¡¯s readily avable. She transferred the money in front of me using her phone through a banking app. Naturally, if that ount doesn¡¯t belong to her, there won''t be any evidence. You can WE These Automation Tools Might Surprise You 12:55 Wed, 21 Feb Chapter 98 verify it by checking both my and her bank statements!¡± Yulissa was so scared that she didn¡¯t know what to say at that point, and her sweat dripped down one by one. The banking app on her phone was her ount. She wouldn''t have used it as she couldn¡¯t let any of the brothers know that she did something so malicious. However, Gavin needed the money and forced her to transfer it on the spot. Gavin event threatened her. Without any choice left, she could onlyply. 69% The police and his colleagues exchanged looks when they heard that, and one of them left the room. ¡°We will verify what you said.¡± The police looked at the woman beside Gavin and said, ¡°Mrs. Lane, do you have anything else to say?¡± Tina Lane nodded and bowed to Cassandra. I¡¯m sorry, youngdy. My husband was desperate to save our daughter and went astray. It''s his fault. | want to apologize to you!¡± She also wanted to express her gratitude to Cassandra and her entourage for letting go of the past and being willing to help in requesting the doctor to provide free treatment for her daughter. Even the operation fee was waived. Whatever they had done meant more than money to her family! ¡°Officer, | can attest that what my husband said is true. | was there at the time and tried to dissuade him, but our daughter¡¯s illness is a ticking time bomb. That''s why we chose that path. I''m really sorry!¡± ¡°You''re talking nonsense! You are lying! | didn¡¯t do it. | don¡¯t even know who you are!¡± Yulissa couldn¡¯t bear it any longer. She was afraid that more would be revealed from this woman''s mouth, and if it happened, it could be the end for her. Hf Chapter 99 Chapter 99 ¡°Everyone, you''ll know if it¡¯s a lie once you listen. | have proof!¡± Fortunately, Cassandra only checked Tina¡¯s husband''s phone and paid no attention to her. Tina¡¯s daughter was often ill but never cried before her. Thus, Tina had no choice but to keep the recording function of her phone on all the time. In this way, when she left or fell asleep identally in the middle of the night, she could know how much pain her daughter was in through recording. It was heartbreaking. Coincidentally, after Yulissa came to see Gavin at their home, they went to the hospital as soon as they received money from her. Unexpectedly, this became a favorable evidence to them. Then, she yed the recording. ¡°I heard that you have been short of money recently.

I''ll have my dad and brother help you if anything goes wrong!¡± This recording, when yed, almost solidified that it was Yulissa¡¯s doing. It was her voice. There weren¡¯t many Yates families in Drieso. Besides the one out of reach, it could only be them. They hadn''t expected Yulissa to be behind this. Even Miranda¡¯s eyes were filled with disbelief. ¡®Is she really my daughter? How can she hire others to harm someone? No matter how much she dislikes Cassandra, even if she genuinely curses her to death, they are just words. Why would she do something so morally wrong!¡¯ Everyone''s expression turned sour, especially in the Yates family. They couldn''t believe their beloved daughter and sister was someone so cruel. Meanwhile, Yulissa was terrified, trembling with fear. ¡°Why is there a recording? Why! It¡¯s over! I¡¯m over! They must have a terrible look in their eyes. They must be angry!¡± Jeremiah mmed the table, stood up, pointed at Yulissa, and cursed, ¡°You have guts. Let me tell you, Yulissa, this isn¡¯t over. We''re going to sue you!¡± The police reminded on the side, ¡°Mister, please calm down.¡± Then, he gestured him to sit down.. Yulissa still refused to admit it. She shook her head desperately and denied tearfully, ¡°It wasn¡¯t me. | didn¡¯t do it. Mom, Dad, you have to believe me. | wouldn¡¯t harm. Cassandra!¡± Yulissa spoke with genuine emotion, shaking Miranda¡¯s conviction. ¡®That¡¯s right. She¡¯s my daughter. | know her! She wouldn''t do something terrible like this.¡± Therefore, seeing Yulissa crying so sadly, Miranda¡¯s heart suddenly softened. ¡°Lisa, | believe you. Don¡¯t cry.

Maybe Cassandra wants to frame Lisa. What evidence do you have to indicate that Lisa did this? | trust my daughter. She wouldn''t do such a thing!¡± Miranda spoke decisively. Regardless of what anyone said, she believed in Yulissa. That¡¯s right. My sister wouldn¡¯t do such a thing. It¡¯s probably you and Cassandra conspiring to frame her. Yulissa is so gentle and kind. How could you nder her like this? Doesn¡¯t it hurt your conscience?¡± Jasper stood up to retort. In his impression, Yulissa had always been gentle and lovely, incapable of doing something so terrible. Cassandra didn¡¯t know what to say anymore. This family was simply beyond salvation. However, it made sense. If they had been rational, they would not have abused her two years in her previous life. er for ¡°Jeremiah, there¡¯s no need to argue.

However, Jonathan''s face was so youthful that Cassandra couldn''t bring herself to do so, so she kept calling him by his name. At first, Jonathan had to correct her, but he soon gave up. ¡°Okay, leave it to me. | don¡¯t believe the mastermind behind this can escape legal punishment.¡± As Jeremiah spoke, he looked at the Yates family.

Even if she was hard-hearted, the sight of her blood-rted parents unconditionally believing a stranger was too cruel for her. However, it onlysted for a moment. She wouldn''t go down the path of her previous life again. Only Jeremiah, the Yates family, and the couple involved in the incident remained in the consultation room. Jeremiah nced at those idiots of the Yates family with interest and then turned to Gavin. ¡°Tell me everything you know and can prove, Cassie is very soft-hearted. If you tell the truth, she''ll go easy on you. She might even release you early to take care of your child.¡± He added, ¡°Cassie won''t let the real culprit off. She''ll fight to thest breath once she finds out who it is!¡± After saying that, he also left. Upon leaving the police station, he sent a message to Lucas and Sylvia, hoping they could spare time to apany ine. The scene today, even for an outsider like him, was ufortable to watch. He couldn¡¯t imagine how she felt. All of a sudden, he grew frustrated. It wasn¡¯t because they shielded the criminal but because their defense of the offender hurt the victim. ¡°The Yates family is truly dam ned!¡± Yulissa was a suspect in this case, so the police had the right to detain her for forty-eight hours to cooperate with the investigation. However, Miranda was unwilling. ¡°On what grounds do you detain my daughter? She says she¡¯s not the culprit.

She looked around to make sure that Cassandra was not hurt. Then she scolded, ¡°Cassandra, why didn¡¯t you tell us what happened? Do you want me and Lucas to worry ourselves to death?¡± Cassandra was good at everything else but tended to keep everything to herself and not say anything. The ce where she had an ident was across the street outside the school. It was too urgent and controlled at that time, so there was no news at all. In the end, Cassandra. didn¡¯t speak to them about the incident. This made the couple both angry and distressed. Cassandra was silent before she said embarrassedly, ¡°Sylvia, I¡¯m fine.

He was genuinely furious. The Yates family, you shameless losers. How dare you let Cassie suffer so much!¡¯ ¡°Rest assured, I¡¯ve informed the police station and everyone at the Public Security Bureau. | don¡¯t believe they can¡¯t convict her!¡± Wilful murder wouldn''t receive a light sentence. It was precisely because Lucas had given a heads-up that Yulissa couldn¡¯t leave the police station. ¡°Officer, | only want to take my sister home.

Miranda¡¯s temper red up when she heard they couldn''t release her. ¡°Madam, you don¡¯t need to look for our chief. This order came from him. Although this case hasn''t gone into a frenzy on the inte, everyone is paying attention. If we let the suspect go, how can we, as police officers, exin to the victims and the public?¡± Police officers aren''t to be trifled with. If they couldn¡¯t solve such a problem, why could they be police? Everyone who came in said they were afraid, but what they did was more terrifying than the detention room. After a stalemate, the police had no choice but to say, ¡°If you can get the other party not to pursue this matter, you can take her home at any time. I¡¯m sure you''re familiar with Mr. Jonathan Youngblood. Once awsuit is filed, Yulissa will be detained, no matter what.¡± Benjamin and Leonardo had no other ways. They could only reassure Yulissa that she would only stay there for one night and that they woulde to pick her up after discussing with Cassandra.

Lisa and Cassandra both let me down.¡± The next morning, Cassandra went to the mansion next door and found no one. Thus, she nned to go to Whitecrane Hall to get some herbs back to study special effect medicine for trauma. As soon as she left the mansion, she ran into Benjamin, Miranda, and Leonardo. ¡°Cassandra, stop right there! Can¡¯t you see me?¡± Miranda couldn¡¯t tolerate Cassandra''s. carefree appearance, especially when her precious daughter, Yulissa, was suffering in the detention room. She was furious.

You said that if you find the culprit, you absolutely won''t let the culprit off as my brother. Howe you don¡¯t believe it now that the culprit has appeared? Don¡¯t be so double standard!¡± Sure enough, one shouldn¡¯t make a promise easily as they might humiliate themselves. ¡°qn ¡®I did say that, but Lisa isn¡¯t the culprit! Ding! Suddenly, Leonardo¡¯s phone rang. It was an unknown number. ¡°Hello.¡± ¡°Hello, Mr. Leonardo Yates. This is XX Police Station.

He felt like something bad was about to happen. f& Chapter 101 50 Wed, 21 Feb Chapter 101 The police presented the evidence they had obtained in front of Benjamin. ¡°Here is the bank statement, which came out yesterday.

A separate audio track analysis confirms it is the same voice as Ms. Yulissa Yates. Therefore, the person speaking in the recording is Ms. Yulissa Yates.¡± The police¡¯s words were an unmistakable verdict for Yulissa. She had fallen in the same ce again. Once, Cassandra humiliated her at a charity g. Now, the dam couple dared to plot against her. Her expression turned fierce. ¡°How dare you deceive me! Do you still want money to save your daughter?¡± With these words. Yulissa had inadvertently admitted to her wrongdoing. Leonardo''s expression grew even darker. He didn¡¯t expect Yulissa to be such a person. ¡°Officer, since Ms. Yulissa Yates has admitted it, | will proceed with the prosecution. directly. Please provide me with a copy of the evidence, and | will include it with the previous school violence case.¡± Jonathan had heard her words earlier and recorded them with the officer''s consent. He mused, ¡®Let''s see how you''ll try to deny it this time!¡± There was a strange look in Miranda¡¯s eyes. She seemed to no longer recognize her daughter before her. She eximed inwardly, How could she do that? She¡¯s too ruthless!! Benjamin¡¯s face went pale. He felt that he had been humiliated. ¡°Hmph!¡± These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A 12:56 Wed, 21 Feb Chapter 101 Benjamin stormed out, thinking there was no need to stay there anymore. 6 K 69% Miranda didn¡¯t know what to do and wanted to leave with Benjamin, but Yulissa held her tightly. ¡°Mom, you have to believe me. | am not... | didn¡¯t mean to. | was only ying a joke on Cassandra.¡± She couldn''t lose Miranda and the Yates family as her support. Otherwise, she would be screwed, as she had just finished her SAT. It took Leonardo a long time to find his voice. ¡°Why did you do this? She has left the Yates family. Why would you still do this to her?¡± He didn¡¯t know when his mindset had changed. In the past, in the face of such matters, he unconditionally believed Yulissa. But now, he was deeply skeptical. Perhaps before, she was acting, and he didn¡¯t see through it. Yohannes and Raymond were reluctant to go home because they were aware.This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org. Morcover, Miranda had never shown such affection for Cassandra. Evidence might speak for itself, but these irond facts were undeniable. Everything presented here was legally valid. No one would dare to show fake documents. He had never thought that his sister, Yulissa, whom he had raised for 18 years, would turn out to be such a malicious person. Yulissa¡¯s face turned pale. She didn¡¯t dare to look at Leonardo. ¡°Leo, |...¡± ¡°No need to exin. Save your strength and exin it to the judge!¡± Leonardo left, too. The atmosphere inside was too stifling, and his beautiful fantasy was shattered. He couldn''t ept it. When Leonardo got home, Jasper was already there. However, his posture and movements were somewhat strange. ¡°What''s wrong with you, Jace?¡± asked Leonardo. These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A Chapter 101 He thought, ¡®Why is he scratching his back against the wall? What an eyesore!¡¯ ¡°Leo, | don¡¯t know what happened. Since | woke up this morning, my whole body started itching, and | have many red spots. | went to the hospital for a checkup, but they couldn¡¯t find anything. Blood tests showed no problems, but my body feels itchy and painful.¡± Jasper felt like he was on the verge of copsing this morning. As a doctor, he had no idea how to help himself. ¡°Have you checked for other reasons?¡± Leonardo asked with concern. He wondered, ¡®What happened? Everything was fine yesterday!¡± Jasper answered, ¡°Yes, | have. I¡¯ve been examining it all morning and had a full body examination. | did everything | could, but | still couldn¡¯t find anything. This is unbearable.¡± Now, aside from his face, Jasper was swollen everywhere. This was undoubtedly a blow for him. ¡°Have you... tried seeing a traditional medicine practitioner?¡± Jasper was stunned. ¡°Yeah, | haven¡¯t seen a traditional medicine practitioner yet. Maybe they have a way!¡± ¡°B-But we''ve been cklisted by Whitecrane Hall. We can¡¯t get in!¡± Jasper continued to lean against the wall to relieve the itching on his back. Whether scratching or using other tools, nothing could alleviate his difort. ¡°Let''s go to another traditional medicine practitioner first. If there''s no other way, we can figure something else out,¡± Leonardo suggested. Leonardo suddenly remembered something. ¡°Wait. Is Jace like this because of Cassandra? On June 7th, she said she had prepared a big gift for Jace! Is this it?¡± ¡°Leo, what should | do? The medicine can¡¯t suppress my symptoms at all. | can¡¯t go out like this!¡± Jasper had broken down. He thought desperately, ¡®What should | do? Somebody help!¡± ¡°Jace, stop it.

How dare that bi tch y dirty tricks behind my back! It¡¯s outrageous!¡± Hiss! My back really hurts!¡¯ Jasper muttered inwardly. Jasper then urged, ¡°Leo, let¡¯s go find Cassandra!¡± Leonardo wanted to say more, but seeing Jasper in such pain, he couldn''t bear it. Leonardo thought, ¡®Forget it. Let''s do as he says. The priority is to get Jace treated!¡± Outside Springmount Townhouse. Cassandra was curious about where Keh had been these past few days. He hadn¡¯t sent any messages at all. However, she couldn¡¯t help feeling annoyed with herself for caring about others. She mused, ¡®Who is he to me? Forget it. Let''s get back to making medicine.¡± ¡°Cassandra, stop right there!¡± Jasper, supported by Leonardo, walked up to her. The bloodstains on his white clothes look rather horrific. ¡°Tsk, retribution came surprisingly fast!¡¯ mused Cassandra again. ¡°Mr. Leonardo Yates, Mr. Jasper Yates, how may | help you?¡± Cassandra smiled, and the mockery in her eyes couldn¡¯t be hidden. Or rather, she seemed to take pleasure in others¡¯ misfortunes. ¡°You! It¡¯s you. What have you done to me?

You brat, I¡¯m your brother. Is this how you''ll treat me? You''re vicious,¡± Jasper cursed loudly. All his manners were gone. The unbearable itching this morning had already made him irritable. Seeing Cassandra¡¯s defiant refusal to admit anything only fueled his anger. ¡°Heh, so what if it¡¯s me? What can you do about it?¡± It didn¡¯t matter whether she admitted it or not. She was thrilled as long as she could infuriate Jasper. In her previous life, the injection he gave her had made her taste the utmost pain. The pain had been magnified several times, and she had died in agony. Therefore, this bit of itching was nothing. ¡°Hand over the antidote now!¡± Jasper thundered. He thought, ¡®You brat, it really is your doing! Once | get the antidote, I''ll deal with you! I''ll show you what I¡¯m capable of!¡± ¡°Why should | give you the antidote?

Give me the antidote quickly, and | might consider letting you go. Otherwise, you''ll regret it!¡± ¡°Enough! Jace!¡± Leonardo yelled at Jasper. Jasper was puzzled. He wondered, ¡®What¡¯s wrong with Leo? Why is he being like that?¡± ¡°She is our sister. She¡¯s a family member, not an enemy. Can you speak more gently?¡± Now, Leonardo realized that Cassandra¡¯s straightforwardness was genuine. 275 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A 12-56 Wed, 21 Feb Chapter 102 Unfortunately, he took too long to understand that. 69% ¡°Leo, have you taken the wrong medicine? After all she¡¯s done to me, you still want me to be gentle with her!¡± Jasper fumed. He thought, ¡®Be gentle with her? No way! | won''t be satisfied until she¡¯s torn to pieces!¡± Leonardo said, ¡°You asked for it. Apologize now.¡±N?velDrama.Org is the owner. That made Cassandra raise an eyebrow. ¡®Oh, this is interesting. Leonardo has gone insane, too!¡± ¡°Leo, had you gone mad? Why should | apologize?¡± asked Jasper. I''m not apologizing. Over my dead body!¡± ¡°| won''t ept your apology either.¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t give them a chance to speak. ¡°Jasper, you''d better go home and soak yourself in water. Uh, preferably water of 140 degrees Fahrenheit. It can relieve your symptoms. Some 32 degrees Fahrenheit cold. water works, too.¡± They are such extreme opposites. No way he can endure it! Ordinary people find even 113 degrees Fahrenheit hot water scalding. Hot water at 140 degrees Fahrenheit, huh? This is going to be interesting! As for 32 degrees Fahrenheit, it¡¯s almost like freezing. Let''s see if the wound on his back can stand it!¡± she mused. Cassandra had specially developed this to deal with Jasper. There was nothing else special about it other than itching and pain. He would be fine after a month. It looked like she had to update the prescription. Suddenly, her phone beeped twice. It was an urgent mission notification from National Security Bureau. Once again, she cursed her stu pidity from her previous life. She hurried back to the mansion, leaving Leonardo and Jasper in a daze. On the second floor of the mansion, she quickly logged into her National Security Bureau ount and found that everyone had already gathered. [OMG! What am | seeing? Is this Emery?

Even though he knew Cassandra intentionally harmed him, he had no other options now. If he didn¡¯t find relief soon, he would scratch himself until he bled. He asked the housekeeper to fill the bathtub with water at 140 degrees Fahrenheit, watching asyers of steam rose. It was June and already scorching. Here, he was preparing to take a hot bath. Jasper swore that he would never let Cassandra get away with this. When he dipped one foot into the bathtub, he felt like he was parboiling his flesh. It was scalding! However, the itching on his leg seemed to disappear. Although there was still some itchiness on his legs, it was bearable. This method seemed to be effective. Therefore, he endured the scalding sensation and put his other foot in, slowly lowering himself into the bathtub. ¡°Ah!¡± He muttered inwardly, ¡®It hurts! My back hurts! The areas that are bleeding hurt! It¡¯s unbearable! | can¡¯t take it anymore!¡± Surprisingly, there was no more itching on his back besides the pain. It seemed to be working well. However, the wounds felt like they were being burned a second time in the boiling water. He hurriedly got up as he couldn''t stand the pain any longer. Then, he asked the housekeeper to prepare ice water for him. After submerging in the ice water, he felt much better.

I''ll have the kitchen make some hot soup for you. Remember to take some medicine as well.¡± Thanks, Leo. Leonardo wanted to talk to Jasper about Cassandra. However, he realized Jasper¡¯s thoughts were probably scattered after experiencing such extreme temperature changes. I''d better talk to Cassandra first tomorrow, thought Leonardo. On the other hand, Cassandra was packing her things and preparing to depart for the border. She decided not to disguise herself, as she was meeting herrades.

They were nothing too important, just some ongoing cases that could be handled. ording to her initial intentions. Even if she weren''t around, the cases could proceed normally. After a few hours on a ne, Cassandra finally arrived at the small town near the border. Cassandra checked the location sent by Daniel, and it seemed to be a mansion. 69% Following the coordinates, she arrived at the mansion. The door was ajar, andughter could be heard from inside. Before entering, she overheard someone discussing her. ¡°Hey hey hey, what do you think Emery looks like? | think he must be very handsome!¡± ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter what Emery looks like.

When hees, we should show him some concern.¡± Cassandra pursed her lips gently. She thought, ¡®These guys are surprisingly concerned about others¡® family matters. It seems like they don¡¯t have enough work to do. She pushed the door open and greeted, ¡°Hello, everyone!¡± Eleven people were seated in the living room, all men. They looked at her as if she were a rare animal, their gazes filled with caution. Suddenly, the man closest to Cassandra stood up and walked toward her, looking friendly. ¡°Miss, are you looking for someone? Are you lost?¡± Cassandra shook her head and said, ¡°I¡¯m not looking for anyone. | came here to meet with you all.¡± up The men wondered in unison, ¡®Meet up? What?¡± ¡°What''s your name, miss? We¡¯re not having a meet-up here.¡± These Automation Tools Might Surprise You 69% Chapter 103 They wondered. We''re here for an offline gathering. Could she be sent here by the enemy? What? Has our whereabouts been revealed so quickly?¡± Cassandra was rendered speechless. T¡¯m Emery.¡± The name Emery made the men pause. ¡°Emery?¡± Everyone was taken aback. No one could believe that this young girl was Emery. They eximed inwardly. The hacker, Emery!! They were in doubt. ¡°What, Emery? We don¡¯t know you.¡± All of them were on guard. They dared not exchange identities with Cassandra easily. After all, in their imagination, Emery was a sessful man in histe twenties, perhaps. a little rough or geeky. Not the bright and lovely girl before them. It was too surreal. Cassandra didn¡¯t bother to exin. Instead, she logged into their exclusive local areawork and sent a message: [I am here, right in front of you!] Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep! Everyone received the message almost simultaneously. When they clicked it open, their pupils dted. This... She¡¯s Emery! ¡®Is Emery a youngdy around 18 years old?¡± The main point was her skills surpassed theirs by far. They wondered if this was real.

Perhaps it was because they were all older than her. One thing was for sure. This was the tone of Emery. However, they found it too hard to believe. ¡°Here, Emery, please have a seat!¡± They started warmly weing her Everyone gathered around her. ¡°Emery, I¡¯m Sylph.

Suddenly, Spark jumped up, his fingers trembling as he pointed at Cassandra excitedly. ¡°Are you Samantha, the songwriter?¡± Cassandra was at a loss for words. Cassandra also paused and thought for a second, ¡®Oh, right.¡± She nodded. ¡°Ah! I¡¯m your fan. I¡¯ve liked you for several years!¡± Spark was so excited he didn¡¯t know how to express himself. However, he was genuinely thrilled.

Cassandra remained silent. ¡°The Yates family has nothing to do with me.¡± Her response made Thunder slightly embarrassed. He meant no harm. However, it was impossible for him not to be aware of it, with her and Yulissa going viral on the inte. What caught him off guard was Emery being the real daughter of the Yates family. Emery was a top-ranked hacker who rejected the position of deputy chief in Hacker Alliance to return to National Security Bureau and live in anonymity. Even so, that didn¡¯t mean that Emery wasn¡¯t famed. ¡°Sorry. | just...¡± Cassandra cut him off and uttered gently, ¡°I understand. After all, my inte friends. know everything about it.¡± Thunder refrained frommenting any further. It had indeed been inappropriate for him to broach the subject so bluntly just then. It was a relief that Emery let the matter drop. Otherwise, it would have been a sticky situation to clean up after. The director of National Security Bureau still hadn¡¯t appeared, even though everyone. present was already acquainted with one another. All of a sudden, someone voiced out straight, ¡°Where is the director of National Security Bureau? Why isn¡¯t he present despite summoning all of us? The arrangements regarding our following mission, who we are to cooperate with, and our duties still haven''t even been made yet!¡± ¡°Here | am!¡± 115 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A 69% a Chapter 104 Daniel, the director of National Security Bureau was on his way in when he overheard his whereabouts being questioned. He was a middle-aged man in his forties. Age had left its mark on him as his sideburns. had turned silver. It was evident that his role as a director involved plenty of worrying. While he¡¯d expected all of the hackers to be men, a woman was seated smack in the middle of the bunch. Daniel mused, ¡®My son would probably be about their age if only I¡¯d worked hard earlier. s, | can¡¯t break thew when | should be the one upholding it!¡± ¡°Thisdy is... ¡®Could she be one of the hacker¡¯s younger sisters?

He was unconvinced. ¡®Emery? Her? An 18-year-old girl? What kind of fantasy realm is this?¡± ¡°Are you serious?¡± The crowd responded in unison, ¡°Cross our hearts.¡± While Daniel was taken aback, he quickly came to terms with it. After all, various. bizarre individuals from all stages of life could be found in such special departments. Despite that, he was still awed by the fact that the renowned Emery had reached such heights at only 18 years of age. Such skill was not something the average person could achieve. Cassandra got to her feet once they seemed to have concluded their discussion. She wasn¡¯t ustomed to being the center of attention. ¡°Director Walker, what should we do next?¡± She was indirectly asking him to stop gawking at her like she was a show animal as it felt mildly awkward. These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A Chapter 104 ¡°The Falcon Special Operations Force¡¯smander will reconvene with you allter. Listen to his instructions when the time comes. Always remember that while all of you aim to rescue others, maintaining your own safety is also key.¡± The bunch whom Daniel instructed were all hisrades¡ªin¡ªarms who hadpleted plenty of missions alongside him. They were the ones who dealt with seemingly unsolvable technical problems and defended their country against countless foreign attacks. Thus, every one of them was an indispensable part of the team. Since the bunch had arrived earlier and had no missions assigned, they had fun in the mansion until around 6 p.m., when several strangers appeared. However, Cassandra was familiar with who they were. The one leading the group was Keh. She hadn''t foreseen him being themander of Falcon Special Operations Force. Her eyes focused on the badge of his military uniform and saw that there wasn¡¯t a bar on it. Instead, his insignia was that of a golden pine and star. This means that Keh is a major general! He¡¯s already in such a high post despite only being 27 years old! Just how many battles did he survive to rank so highly?¡± Cassandra¡¯s heart inexplicably began aching. Keh was also shocked to encounter Cassandra on the battlefield. ¡®What''s she doing here? Doesn''t she know how dangerous it is?¡± ¡°Commander Zelinski, these 12 individuals of mine are in charge of the information security department. All of them are present here. Feel free tomand them as you see fit.¡± Daniel introduced them one by one and briefly touched on their respective expertise. ¡°The only girl here is the esteemed Emery. Don¡¯t underestimate her for being young as | believe all of you''ve heard of what she¡¯s capable of.¡± The director looked proud of himself. ¡®Witness how outstanding those working under me are!¡± Even Kayden, who apanied Keh, was incredulous. 3/5 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You 156 Wed, 21 Feb Chapter 104 69% a ¡®So, Cassandra is Emery? What a mystical world we''re living in. | can¡¯t believe someone this young who¡¯s reached such a superhuman skill level exists! Kayden eyed Keh silently. ¡°My, my. Both of them sure share the same rotten tastes and are absurdly talented. Heaven forbid that both of them won¡¯t end up together in the future!¡± ¡°Ms. Yates, fancy meeting you here. To think that you''re the eminent Emery... Kayden initiated a greeting to ease the tense atmosphere. ¡°Mr. Yates, Mr. Zelinski, long time no see!¡± Cassandra replied. ¡°Why are you here? Don¡¯t you understand how dangerous it is?¡± Keh¡¯s tone was brimming with concern and longing. It was far too risky for her to remain there as war would break out at any time. ¡®Who else would there be to protect her when the timees?¡± ¡°Mr. Zelinski, I''m no coward. I¡¯m naturally capable of protecting myself since I¡¯m here. Keh was stunned. She was right. Emery was not like any ordinary person. She had exceptional martial prowess in addition to hacking skills. Besides, her mind-blowing shooting skills at Spaunia could not be picked up within at year or two. As a matter of fact, the people of Zosteylor were the ones who should be worried. Keh sank into silence momentarily before urging, ¡°In that case, take good care of yourself and don¡¯t get hurt.¡± Everyone in the information security department exchanged nces. ¡®Are they acquainted? Cassandra inclined her head. Of course, she would guard herself well and not let anyoney a hand on her. Moreover, what danger would there be when she was merely assisting the battle and not in the thick of the fray? These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A Wed, 21 Feb Chapter 104 Keh¡¯s cial face softened at that, a hint of a warm smile gracing the corners of his lips. ¡°Comrades, | would like to thank all of you for your assistance on behalf of Falcon Special Operations Force. | hope we can work together to save the 32 scientific researchers as soon as possible!¡± ¡°Yes, sir!¡± Keh and Kayden began delegating their duties. Each mission would be carried out in pairs, which involved breaking through the firewall, verifying intel, identifying the specific location and identity of the captives, covering for the rescue team, defending against invading viruses, and dealing with the aftermath by coordinating everything. ¡°All of you are free to choose whichever mission works best to your strengths.¡± The 12 would be split into pairs to work together like a well-oiled machine. Surprisingly, everyone looked toward Cassandra simultaneously. Cassandra was tongue-tied. ¡°All of you can go first. I''ll be thest...¡± & Chapter 105 Chapter 105 It wasn¡¯t because they were weak. It was because they weren''t as well-rounded as Emery. She was good at everything. They were only skilled in their area of specialization. They could only be in charge of a part of it. Nheless, they looked at Cassandra because she could do everything and was skilled in all aspects. They wanted to see what she was willing to do. Before long, the tasks were assigned. All that was left for Cassandra and Spark to deal with was the aftermath. Aside from disrupting their line of sight, they would have toy down and manage obstructions and interceptors.¡± That was challenging for Spark. However, with Emery beside him, things would be different. He would be able to work quickly and efficiently. Keh did not expect Cassandra to be so impressive. They agreed to start the next day, but not at the mansion. Instead, they would go to themand center of Falcon Special Operations Force. ¡°Director Walker, you still have to choose a team leader. It will make giving orders. Without a leader, they would not be cohesive. Daniel was in a dilemma. He didn¡¯t know whether he should choose by capability or by age. ¡°Director Walker, let Emery be the team leader. After all, she is the most capable among us. We can¡¯t defeat her!¡± Thunder suggested. However, he was speaking the truth. Emery ranked first on the list of hackers because she hadpleted an incredible challenge, and it had only taken her one minute to crack it when there was no chance of sess. 176 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You 12:57 Wed, 21 Feb 5 UG. Chapter 105 Besides, it appeared that the challenge¡¯s difficulty would progressively decrease after Emery hadpleted it. Fortunately, the alliance was smart enough to make that challenge a criterion for the hackers¡¯ ranking. Thus, currently, no one could beat Cassandra¡¯s record of one minute. Even the person ranked second had to take about ten minutes. The sheer brilliance of those people was unbelievable. 69% Daniel also agreed with Thunder¡¯s viewpoint. Still, he had to ask them directly, ¡°What do you think?¡± Everyone replied firmly, ¡°We agree!¡± It was settled. However, Cassandra felt a little embarrassed. She thought that she was not suitable. ¡°Director Walker, choose someone else. I¡¯m not suitable.¡± She did not want to stand out. Her only reason foring on that mission was to see herrades. She did not do so because she had something to prove. ¡°Emery, please don¡¯t refuse. You''re the best fit. Don¡¯t feel stressed just because you are young. We''re all very easy to talk to. You could also let Thunder help you,¡± one of them suggested. They had assumed that Emery was worried that she was too young to give orders to them, who were older than her. ¡°That¡¯s a good idea. Something to consider!¡± Cassandra could only agree reluctantly. Thus, it was decided. They were already at themand center at around eight o¡¯clock the following morning. Almost all the members of both Falcon Special Operations Force and the information security department were men, so Cassandra was the only girl present. Moreover, she These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A Chapter 103? 2024 N?v/el/Dram/a.Org. was only a girl! Members of Falcon Special Operations Force looked down on girls. They thought, ¡®Who the hell is this kid? She¡¯s ying in a war zone! What an idiot!¡± ¡°Commander Zelinski, why is there a girl here?¡± Amember of the special operations force raised an objection, and others also reported. one after another. They expressed their dissatisfaction. Cassandra said nothing, her face sullen. However, Keh¡¯s anger red. He thought that hisrades¡ªin¡ªarms were really arrogant. ¡°| invited these technicians from the information security department of National Security Bureau. Ms. Yates here is their central figure!¡± If anyone dared to speak negatively about Cassandra again, he would send them into. the war zone to gather intelligence. ¡°| don¡¯t understand, Commander Zelinski! A teenage girl who is also their central figure? This is utter humiliation for us! | refuse to ept this! I¡¯m not going into a trench with a woman!¡± That person was furious. ¡®Im here to defend my country, not to protect a brat who¡¯s digging her own grave!¡¯ he thought. ¡°Do you not understand what | just said?¡± ¡°I''m just expressing my doubts, Commander Zelinski!¡± He was also expressing his displeasure. ¡°Ivan Stevens!¡± ¡°Yes, sir!¡± ¡°You can leave Falcon Special Operations Force right now.

There was no reason to cause the army¡¯s morale to drop just because of her. ¡°Ivan, you refuse to ept. What exactly are you refusing to ept?¡± Cassandra asked coldly. ¡°Everything! I¡¯m here to save lives, not to y pretend with children!¡± Ivan was targeting Cassandra. Kayden could no longer stand it... He eximed inwardly, ¡®Doesn¡¯t this guy usually act like he thinks he¡¯s better than everyone else?¡® Even the other soldiers nearby couldn¡¯t stand it anymore! ¡°Since you think I¡¯m a child, do you dare topete with me? If | win, you will apologize to me and continue to work hard to complete the mission. If you win, I''ll quit. How¡¯s that?¡± It was an incredibly tempting offer for Ivan. He was looking for a good reason to kick Cassandra out. He hadn''t expected her to offer him one herself. These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A Wed, 21 Feb Chapter 105 ¡°How do you want to bet?¡± That meant that he would meet her challenge! ¡°Pick your favorites. | don¡¯t mind.¡± Cassandra¡¯s words severely damaged lvan¡¯s dignity.

Otherwise, you''ll say that | am bullying you.¡± Those two were what he was best at. He was already confident about his victory. Considering how weak Cassandra looked, he thought that it would be a decisive victory. ¡°No need for that. You can choose all of them. I''ll take it!¡± Ivan was rendered speechless. He was panicking a little.. However, it probably had nothing to do with Cassandra. He chose thest one. ¡°nting Trojan virus. Don¡¯t use me of bullying youter!¡± Cassandra snorted. ¡°All right, then. When do we start?¡± Keh was silent and even wanted to pick a fight. ¡°An hourter!¡± Ivan went into the office, leaving Cassandra and several other men behind. ¡°Emery, you''re not actually going to bet with him, are you? He¡¯s just trying to cause trouble. Not even Commander Zelinski had time to amuse him. Don¡¯t be angry!¡± ¡°Emery, | think you should ignore this type of person. He¡¯s just unhappy with his life!¡± Such a person shouldn''t join the army. He had a short temper and was also incredibly arrogant. He had even wanted to take the deputymander¡¯s ce and be themander''s direct subordinate. Chapter 106 Chapter 106 An hourter, they were in the fighting arena. Ivan looked at Cassandra haughtily with disdain in his eyes. Believing he could fight at dozen people like her at once, he scoffed inwardly at her confidence. Keh looked sullen. He wanted to fight lvan himself and teach him a lesson. However, Cassandra had epted the challenge. She would have to fight. ¡°Ivan is a troublemaker. What if he hurts Cassandra by ident?¡® he thought anxiously. ¡°Ivan, now that this challenge has begun, the responsibilities you will bearter are not as simple as Ms. Yates has stated. You vited military protocol. | believe you know what you will face.¡± Looking at Keh, Kayden could tell that he was thinking about how to deal with. Ivan. However, he was a soldier of a special operations force, after all. If they dealt with him. directly, others would be displeased. So, regardless of whether Ivan won or lost in that challenge, he would be punished for a breach of discipline. That was the only way to silence the others who were dissatisfied. It was a soldier¡¯s duty to obey orders, yet Ivan did not obey Keh¡¯s orders. He discriminated against women and refused to work with them. He had crossed the line. Ivan didn¡¯t take Kayden¡¯s words scriously and merely said arrogantly, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, Deputy Commander Yates. I¡¯m just helping Ms. Yates find her ce. She shouldn¡¯te to such a dangerous ce. After the challenge is over, I''ll ept my due punishment.¡± In any case, he didn¡¯t want to work with such a weak girl. He wanted her to back down. If he had to be punished, so be it. Cassandra stepped forward and said calmly, ¡°Can we start now?¡± There was still a mission. They had no time for nonsense. Ivan snorted, thinking that he had never seen a woman so arrogant. 1/15 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You 12:57 Wed, 21 Feb 5G.. Chapter 106 n ¡°Sure. Since you''re a girl, I''ll let you make ten moves first. Don¡¯t say that | bullied you!¡± ¡®Hch. That''s some pretty big talk, Cassandra thought. Cassandra entered the arena. Everyone in the information security department was worried. They thought, ¡®She''s just a young girl, and she¡¯s so capable. What the hell is this? Does he think he¡¯s impressive just because he¡¯s in Falcon Special Operations Force? He has no right to look down on girls! If anything happened to Emery, they would not let Ivan get away with it. ¡°Ten moves? Don¡¯t cry, then.¡± Cassandra took the initiative to strike lvan¡¯s lower body while attacking continuously with her hands. For a moment, Ivan could not react and was pped. ¡®Damn it! Why is she so fast? he cursed inwardly. ¡°You''re so dumb, lvan.

She¡¯s very agile. | think it¡¯s hard to predict the winner of this match.¡± Suddenly, Ivan felt somewhat regretful that he had said she could make ten moves. It was only the fifth move, and he was already so overwhelmed that he was a little out of breath. He had no choice but to dodge. Thinking that it had been enough, Cassandra suddenly gave a kick mid-air to the right. side of Ivan¡¯s face. With a snort, Ivan fell to the ground. Cassandra looked down at him. It was a sort of silent brag from the winner. She asked coldly, ¡°Do you admit defeat?¡± ¡°| don¡¯t! You made a sneak attack!¡± Ivan was disgruntled, thinking that she had started attacking before she said ¡°Start.¡± ¡°I''ll give you a chance, then. You''ll say start. This time, | don¡¯t need you to let me go. first!¡± He was not as powerful as she had expected and was just a pretty face. These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A 12:57 Wed, 21 Feb Chapter 106 With all his arrogance, he had learned nothing useful. She thought, Will he give a weak person he sees on the battlefield an advantage, then? Is he unaware that not everyone who appears weak is a pushover?¡± ¡°Hmph! Don¡¯t get cocky. | won''t lose to you!¡± Ivan got up from the ground with a defiant look on his face. Cassandra moved seven feet away and waited for him to yell start. However, it was impossible for a man who had been beaten up to y by the rules. He had already begun to deliver a heavy blow before he shouted, ¡°Start!¡± Thunder. Spark, and others were shocked as they watched. Thunder couldn¡¯t help but approach Keh and roar angrily, ¡°Commander Zelinski, is this the kind of soldier you have trained? He said Emery made a sneak attack. What''s he doing, then? Is this an open and aboveboard fight?¡± Emery didn¡¯t begin to strike until she had yelled ¡°start,¡± but lvan had already begun to strike before yelling ¡°start.¡± That was simply bullying! Achilling aura surrounded Keh, and Kayden could sense the coldness he exuded. He figured that lvan was probably doomed. Keh ignored Thunder¡¯s anger and even blocked out all voices as he kept watching. the match in the arena. He was ready to rush up and subdue Ivan if he noticed something wrong. However, the results they feared did not materialize. Cassandra subdued Ivan on her seventh move. She kicked him to the ground. A few seconds went by, but Ivan didn¡¯t get up. She walked over to him, stood before him, and said, ¡°Don''t tell people you¡¯re a member of Falcon Special Operations Force. Even | feel embarrassed for you.¡± ¡°Wow! Emery is awesome!¡± ¡°How many moves did she make? Seven or eight?¡± ¡°Seven moves!¡± These Automation Tools Might Surprise You 21 Feb Chapter 106 ¡°That¡¯s it? He even said he¡¯d let Emery make ten moves first, and that¡¯s it? He was defeated in seven moves despite not being at a disadvantage. nothing!¡± He¡¯s The people in the information security department were all very excited. They did not expect Emery to be so powerful. 68%%% Ivan was a member of Falcon Special Operations Force! They had heard rumors about how impressive those people were. However, Emery had knocked him down just like that. The members of Falcon Special Operations Force were somewhat amazed, too. Her strength astounded them. Ivan was one of the best fighters among them, yet he was beaten to the ground with just a few moves. Keh looked proud. There was even a faint smile on his face. ¡®As expected of my Cassie,¡¯ he thought. Kayden was also a little shocked and said beside Keh, ¡°Tsk. She¡¯s so impressive and tough, Commander Zelinski. Will you be able to handle her?¡± ¡°She''s delicate. Be careful of your phrasing.¡± He mused, ¡°Tough? If lvan hadn¡¯t provoked her, there¡¯s no way Cassie would have ended up like this.¡± Ivan still would not yield. His expression was sour. ¡°Don¡¯t get cocky. There are still two rounds to go. Best two out of three!¡± Cassandra shrugged casually. They wouldpete in marksmanship at the shooting range. Cassandra looked at the shooting range and thought that it was not exciting enough. Keh had understood the disdain on her face. lvan¡¯s marksmanship was nowhere near as good as Cassandra''s. Keh had wanted to snag Cassandra for Falcon Special Operations Force when he saw her masterful marksmanship from Spaunia. 4/5 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You 2 Wed, 21 Feb G Chapter 106. However, he was reluctant, It was tough to be in Falcon Special Operations Force. ¡°Let''s make it more difficult.

Many agents had used that gun and praised it. It seemed that Falcon Special Operations Force was quite rich! ¡°Moving targets?¡± Ivan snorted, thinking that she did not know her ce.

In the past two hours, Cassandra had heard him tell her many times not to say he was bullying a woman. She scoffed inwardly. ¡°You think you¡¯re so great?

He continued after a pause, ¡°You can say whatever. I¡¯m not discriminating against women anyway. You''re just making a big deal out of it!¡± He just thought that women were more prone to trouble during missions. In such life-and-death situations, the slightest problem could putrades in danger. Moreover, Cassandra, who was before him, seemed particrly young and weak to him. He was certain she would only ruin the battle. He mused, ¡®If this woman is captured, should we save her or not? She''ll only slow down the mission! That¡¯s why women should not be on the battlefield!¡¯ ¡°There¡¯s no need to exin that much. You can decide the rules of the match.¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t listen to his exnation. The reason was that the exnation was useless and rather unconvincing. He still could. not hide his disrespect for women. His words were high-sounding, but only he knew what he truly thought. Ivan struggled to speak. His words were stuck in his throat, making him feel aggrieved. ¡®Damn it!¡± he cursed inwardly. ¡°We will each fire ten shots at the moving targets. Whoever has the higher score wins. In the event that we have the same score, the winner will be decided by speed.¡± He didn¡¯t want to add thatst sentence. The reason was that there were few who were on par with him, even in Falcon Special Operations Force. ¡®She¡¯s just a woman. Heh. There¡¯s no way!¡¯ he thought. ¡°Let''s start, then.¡± From assembling a gun to firing, not only did they have to ensure the uracy of their These Automation Tools Might Surprise You 12:57 Wed, 21 Feb G.

There was indeed a significant advantage for Ivan! 68%, Keh only knew that Cassandra was good at shooting, but he didn¡¯t know how good she was at assembling. This time, Kayden was the host.. He would announce the start of the match. ¡°Three! Two! One! Start!¡±? 2024 N?v/el/Dram/a.Org. Cassandra and Ivan began to assemble quickly and skillfully. The two finished almost simultaneously, but Cassandra began shooting first. After a few shots, Cassandra put down the gun she was holding, and Kayden hurriedly pressed the timer. In terms of time. Cassandra won, but Ivan still looked disdainful. ¡°Being fast ist pointless. What matters most is uracy.¡± He thought that Cassandra had probably shot carelessly with her eyes closed, and he was skeptical that she could hit a single bullseye with ten rounds. There was no point in being cocky right then. Keh said in a deep voice, ¡°Read the targets.¡± Kayden sent his second inmand to read the targets, and the two targets were moved in front of them.

How could she possibly get 10.9?¡± Ivan didn¡¯t believe it. To be precise, his ego could not allow that to happen. He was crushed twice by a woman; he might as well die! ¡°If you don¡¯t believe it, go check the targets yourself, whether you believe it or not doesn¡¯t matter.¡± Kayden despised that kind of person most. He couldn¡¯t handle defeat and was also prideful. He thought. There¡¯s a whole world out there. There will always be people better than you. | can¡¯t believe he doesn¡¯t understand that. That¡¯s pathetic!¡± Ivan didn¡¯t give up and walked to the targets. After seeing the true results, his face. turned pale. He lost? Even though shooting at moving targets was his strongest suit, he had lost. Moreover, he had lost to a woman! Furiously, he walked to Cassandra and asked, ¡°Who the hell are you?¡± He didn¡¯t believe that she was an ordinary woman. How could an ordinary woman possibly be better than him? Thunder stepped forward, shielding Cassandra behind him. ¡°Ivan, that¡¯s enough! You targeted Emery as soon as we arrived. Now that you have lost, you can¡¯t admit it, can you? Is that why you have the audacity to question Emery? There will always be people who are better than you.

Ignoring the fact that he had discriminated against women, he had even interrogated Emery. It was ridiculous! ¡°That¡¯s right. You chose the challenges yourself.

Hisst sentence nearly sealed lIvan¡¯s fate. Falcon Special Operations Force did not need him anymore. Even Clusia¡¯s soldiers didn¡¯t need someone like him. No army would ept a soldier who disobeyed orders. He would most likely be expelled from the army. Upon seeing that it was useless to plead with Keh, everyone had no choice but to turn to Cassandra. ¡°Ms. Yates, Ivan is at fault this time. But he didn¡¯t mean anything by These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A ved, 21 Feb Chapter 107 it, so please consider sparing him this once!¡± Cassandra was silent for a few seconds and said, ¡°He hasn¡¯t apologized to me yet!¡± She meant that she would not let him go without an apology.

Leonardo entered the house from outside. Miranda immediately stepped forward and looked behind him. ¡°How¡¯s it going? Is Lisa back?¡± Leonardo was going to bail out Yulissa that day. It was fine for her freedom to be restricted. At the very least, it would be better for her to be able to stay at homepared to being confined in the detention center. However, the police disagreed, saying that Yulissa¡¯s behavior in the detention center was so bad that she could not be released on bail and had to stay in the detention center while waiting for the court session to be held. That was, unless, she could acquire the victim¡¯s consent. ¡°No, the police won''t let me bail her out.¡± Miranda was so anxious that she burst into tears. ¡°How could this happen? She would just stay home and not go anywhere else!¡± Miranda thought, ¡®Lisa! Why do you have to endure such hardships?¡± ¡°Mom, the police said Lisa didn¡¯t behave well in there and treated the police officers. rudely every day. Therefore, she¡¯s not allowed to go on bail unless Cassandra agrees.¡± Leonardo''s head was aching too. They wanted to find Cassandra, but they didn¡¯t know where she was. Miranda¡¯s face darkened in an instant. She thought, | must find Cassandra! | don¡¯t know where that damn girl is. | haven¡¯t seen her in the past two or three days! ¡°Can''t you think of another way?¡± Leonardo shook his head and said, ¡°No. There is a letter from Mr. Hathaway saying that this case must be handled as soon as possible, so the police dare not let her go!¡± These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A ved, 21 Feb Chapter 108 ¡°What?

My poor Lisa, how could she suffer such grievances?* Leonardo nodded awkwardly. He was at a loss for what to do regarding that matter at that point. He wanted to give Cassandra justice. He said he wouldn¡¯t let go of anyone who hurt her. However, at that moment, he was confused by Yulissa¡¯s personality. He wondered how his kind and lovely sister, Yulissa, could hire a murderer to kill someone. There was no problem with forensic audio authentication. Even he himself, under the supervision of the police, found an authenticating agency that he thought was reliable and re¡ªauthenticated it. He received the same answers. Leonardo thought, ¡®Has she been pretending to be obedient all this while?¡± ¡°Mom, let Lisa stay in there for a few days. She should be punished if she dares to hire someone to harm others.¡± Leonardo wanted to persuade his mother not to worry about it for the time being. At the very least, they needed to let Yulissa be taught a lesson. However, as soon as he finished speaking, Miranda scolded him. ¡°What are you talking about? Aren¡¯t you familiar with Lisa¡¯s personality? Do you hear what you''re saying? Besides, Cassandra is fine. Why can¡¯t she forgive Lisa? Lisa is her younger sister!¡± Leonardo''s eyes widened, as if he hadn¡¯t expected his mother to say such a thing. ¡°Mom, do you regard Cassandra as a member of the Yates family? Do you think it¡¯s appropriate to say that Lisa is her sister now?¡± Leonardo was close toughing in exasperation at his mother. 2/5 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You D 681 Chapter 108 Fed From the beginning, none of them regarded Cas as their family. However, after she left the Yates family, everyone wanted to gain some benefits from her. It turned out he was also a shameless person. Leonardo even conspired with his father to defraud Cassandra of her shares. He thought, ¡®Ha! I¡¯m way out of line!¡± ¡°Regardless of her being a member of the Yates family, the Yates family¡¯s blood flows within her body. Lisa is her sister, so she should forgive Lisa. Miranda spoke righteously. She didn¡¯t think there was anything wrong with her words. She even found Cassandra insensible, thinking, ¡®Is there a need to teach this? Shouldn¡¯t she have taken the initiative to forgive Lisa?¡± ¡°Mom, why do you think Cassandra should forgive us? Think about all the things we¡¯ve done to her.¡± ¡°So what? All parents have their children¡¯s best interests at heart. How dare she me me? Leo, go to Springmount Townhouse again and find Cassandra.

However, there was aser field around the ind. As they were trapped in the mansion, they could only stay inside it. They couldn¡¯t go in or out. As long as one was detected by theser field, they would get injured by it. They were not sure whether there was any other hidden weapon besides theser field. For example, they were clueless if there were any rifles in the mechanism. For the time being, they could only confirm that there were only 32 of them and no one else on that ind. It seemed that the person who held them was very confident. This was good news for the Falcon Special Operations Force. As long as they could crack theser field, they could be saved! Cassandra and Thunder briefed Keh and Daniel about this. Everyone was lost in thought as this was a big problem. If they couldn¡¯t ge get rid of theser field, their people wouldn''t be able to get in. Meanwhile, the people inside wouldn''t be able to get out either. Their supplies were running low too. There was a chance that one would die before they could rescue them. Keh suddenly said, ¡°How about we use a helicopter to rescue them from above?

However, Zero knew no one could break the mechanism he built. Of course, Emery was the only exception. However, that person was already gone and would never appear again. Thus, Zero didn¡¯t take it to heart. Zero was a foreigner, after all. Clusia had a saying that pride came before a fall. People who were conceited often lost confidence in the aspects they were proud of.

However, Zero did not seem to be aware of this problem. Plus, he even felt that nobody could defeat him. Unbeknownst to him, everyone in the information security department had done detailed homework against him. Therefore, the originally nned 30 minutes was scraped!

The reason was that their country¡¯s leader would get to the bottom of it! If one of their men died on the battlefield, it would be regarded as a tant provocation to Clusia.

These people were important to Zosteylor! There was no way they could let the researchers go back! However, they couldn''t open fire at them yet! ¡°We will not stay in Zosteylor. We want to go back to our country. Zosteylor has imprisoned us for so long that we will never set foot in Zosteylor again!¡± an older expert cried. He was the one who had been trapped on the ind for a year. During that year, he didn¡¯t have any contact with the outside world. His wife and children must have been so anxious! He wanted to go back, and he would never go back to this nightmare of a ce again! ¡°Colonel Irwin, what are you doing here with your men?¡± Everyone wondered who was the owner of this familiar voice.. It was themanding officer of Falcon Special Operations Force! ¡®It''s Zelinski. | didn¡¯t expect Clusia to send him here!¡® Paul thought. Paul¡¯s face immediately turned red! He was furious! Paul wondered why Kehe.. Only then did Kayden see the person opposite him clearly. No wonder Kayden felt that he seemed familiar! Paul was still as shameless as ever, and his tone was still annoying! It turned out to be Keh¡¯s defeated subordinate! It was even a disastrous defeat! ¡°Commander Zelinski, long time no see!¡± Chapter 111 Chapter 111 ¡°You brought so many people, Colonel IrwinColonel Paul came with so many men to open fire on us!¡± It was difficult for one to reply to Keh¡¯s words, for it was quite severe. If Paul replied yes, it meant that he was provoking Clusia. If he replied no, he had to release the 32 researchers.N?velDrama.Org is the owner. In any case, Paul couldn¡¯t ount for any of his answers. ¡°Commander Zelinski, why do you say that? | just want to invite the experts to stay with us!¡± Paul didn¡¯t answer Keh directly! After all, Paul was uncertain whether to say yes or no. ¡°They are Clusians, and they are also on the list of Evacuation Operation. Why did Zosteylor keep them on the ind secretly? Now, you''re even preventing Falcon Special Operations Force from bringing them back. Do you want to go to war with us?¡± Keh didn¡¯t give him a chance to escape the topic. Instead, Keh threw the questions back to him. Actually, Keh was buying time. He never fought uncertain battles. Even if they could fight before Yannick¡¯s men arrived, they would soon run out of bullets. However, it was a different situation when Yannick¡¯s men arrived! ¡°Commander Zelinski, | know you''re waiting for someone. However, | have to be honest with you. | won''t let you take them away today!¡± Instead of wasting time with Keh, Paul decided to make it clear instead! The more time Keh was given, the worse it would be for them! Cassandra walked to Keh and asked, ¡°How confident are you?¡± ¡°As things stand, the people of Falcon Special Operations Force can go out unharmed. However, 32 experts might not be able to get out of here.¡± These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A 12:59 Wed, 21 Feb G Chapter III This meant that he was not confident enough. ¡°Do you know where their base is? Or the exact location of Zosteylor¡¯s presidential residence?¡± Cassandra hadn''t investigated that yet. Instead of wasting time on it, she thought it would be better to just ask. Keh gave several addresses of the bases of Paul''s troops and the presidential residence he knew of Cassandra thought, ¡°These ces have arsenals. If we''re not confident for the time being, we should just make Paul and his crew go away!¡± If their base exploded, Paul and his crew would definitely go away. 68 If Cassandra remembered correctly, Paul was the most trusted colonel in the presidential residence. Therefore, if something happened to the presidential residence, he had to go back! As for the bombing of their base, it was to disrupt their morale. Cassandra nodded to show that she understood. Then, she went back into the cabin and started to make a move. Not long after, she saw many red dots shing on herputer screen. These red dots were the ordnance locations that Keh was talking about. Cassandra thought, ¡®Well, that¡¯s a lot! It''s no wonder that their such a chaotic country!¡± After Cassandra worked on it for a while, she saw the red dots on the screen had all exploded! The sound of the closest ordnance exploding was transmitted to the shore! ¡°What''s going on? Is the enemy here?¡± Paul asked nervously. He thought, ¡®Why do they have to cause trouble at this time?¡± Keh also heard the sound. He wondered what was going on. For some reason, he turned to Cassandra. He felt that the explosion had something to do with her! 2/6 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You Wed, 21 Feb Chapter 111 ¡°Wait for another two minutes. After that, nobody will be able to stop us!¡± It would take two minutes at most for someone at the presidential residence to call. However, Yannick arrived first with his men before someone from the presidential residence called. ¡°Commander Zelinski, 80 members of Falcon Special Operations Force are here!¡± Paul''s face twitched. He didn¡¯t expect them to be here so soon. Just as Paul was about to throw a fit, his phone rang with a special ringtone! ¡°Mr. President, what can | do for you?¡± Paul pulled himself together and stood still! ¡°Now?¡± ¡°But... Yes!¡± Paul nced at them reluctantly. He still didn¡¯t want to let these people go! However, Mr. President had demanded he put everything aside and go to the presidential residence at once! At that, Paul couldn¡¯t dy. ¡°Retreat!¡± Kayden was dumbfounded. He wondered, ¡°What is he doing? He¡¯s retreating at his own ord! Is he not going to fight? Do they not want the researches anymore?* ¡°Yannick!¡± ¡°Yes!¡± 68% Yannick ran quickly to Keh and heard him say, ¡°Gather all of you and escort the 32 experts safely to the airport. Then, get someone to escort them back home!¡± The mission was only consideredplete after they sent all 32 experts back home and when the aircraftnded safely. 3/6 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You 59 Wed, 21 Feb Chapter 111 ¡°Yes!¡± Yannickmanded those experts to get down from the yacht.. Then, he sent about three buses to escort them away in batches! 68% In front of each car, there was a Clusia g. Thus, even in the chaotic Zosteylor, no one dared to open fire at them. After the mission waspleted, they would also return home! In themand center, Keh asked, ¡°Cassie, can you tell me what you did?¡± Keh felt that he hadn''t yed any significant role in this task! It was thanks to Cassandra that the rescue went so smoothly. However, he still didn¡¯t know what Cassandra had done. Yannick wondered, ¡°Was the loud noise we heard an explosion? That should be it. However, where did it explode? Was it in the presidential residence or Paul''s military base?¡± ¡°| blew up all the ces you mentioned...¡± There was a war ongoing in the country right now. Thus, the weapons and ammunition would not be stored too far away. It would definitely be at a ce that was essible at any time! Therefore, it must not be far from the base! Thus, Cassandra remotely controlled all of the ammunition to explode! Paul would definitely need to clean up the mess! Paul should solve the losses first whenpared to the future. After all, it was uncertain if they were able to keep the experts or not. Keh was shocked! He didn¡¯t expect this to happen. He thought, ¡®No wonder Paul looked so angry when he left. Plus, he seemed so indecisive at first. It turns out that this was the reason!¡± Indeed, Paul''s losses would be even greater if he continued to waste time with them! Perhaps Paul''s losses would far outweigh the benefits the experts brought. These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A Chapter III Fel After all, Paul hadn¡¯t seen the benefits that the experts could bring yet. Yet, Paul could see they had made a great loss at this point! ¡°Cassie, you¡¯re amazing!¡± However, Cassandra frowned. She thought, ¡®Cassie? Isn¡¯t this name a bit too ambiguous?¡± ¡°Mr. Zelinski-¡± ¡°Commander Zelinski!¡± Thunder and Spark had interrupted Cassandra¡¯s words. ¡°What can | do for you?¡± ¡°The mission has been sessfullypleted. Thus, the 13 of us will leave first.¡± There was no use for them to be there. Falcon Special Operations Force only needed to report to their superiors at present. As they didn¡¯t need to be there, they could now retreat. Keh didn¡¯t answer. Instead, he nced at Cassandra and said, ¡°Okay. | will ask someone to escort you guys away.¡± Thunder nodded,pletely agreeing with his arrangement. ¡°You go back to Drieso first. You should be tired after being out and about for several days. You should head back and have a good rest. See you in Drieso,¡± Keh said. softly. Keh thought, ¡®Mission aplished! ¡°This time, except for everyone taking part in Evacuation Operation, all the others in the rescue team shouldn''t have any rewards! ¡°They didn¡¯t contribute anything at all. It was as if they were there to take a walk! ¡®All they had done was swagger into the ind mansion and lead the experts out! ¡®In fact, it was all because of Cassandra that everything went so smoothly! These Automation Tools Might Surprise You Wed, 21 Feb Chapter 111 ¡®Cassandra should take all the credit this time! ¡°Okay. It¡¯s time to write my report! Cassandra and others rested there overnight. Early the next morning, they boarded a chartered flight under Kayden¡¯s escort. There were also several Falcon Special Operations Force personnel apanying them. They requested to escort Cassandra and the others safely back to Drieso before heading back to the base. a SEND GIFT These Automation Tools Might Sur Chapter 112 Chapter 112 Finally, they arrived at Drieso Airport. The 13 of them got off the ne, and Daniel was the first to leave. The remaining 12 decided to catch up with each other. It was only around four or five o¡¯clock in the afternoon, so they had time to pack up and have dinner together. ¡°Emery, do you live in Drieso?¡± It was a significant discovery. There was no questioning that Daniel lived in Drieso. Aside from him and Emery, several others among the 12 of them also resided in Drieso. This meant more opportunities to meet up in the future. Thunder and Spark were from Drieso, and so were Dream and Pumpkin.. The more they talked about it, the more envious they felt. ¡°Let''s book a hotel first, freshen up, and party tonight. Tomorrow, we all go back to our homes. It was not every day that like-minded people like them get to gather, so Cassandra agreed with their n. ¡®We could get together and have dinner tonight, but | may not be able to join the rest of the activities, she thought. Cassandra then said, ¡°I¡¯ll go home and drop off my luggage first. Let¡¯s meet at The Urbanter.¡± The Urban, Drieso¡¯srgest entertainment venue, was divided into five floors. The first floor was a ce for ordinary white-cor workers, and the second floor required a minimum spending of 1 million dors... The third floor was for those with a spending capacity of 4 million dors, and the fourth floor was reserved for life members. The fifth floor was open only to those allowed by The Urban¡¯s behind¡ªthe-scene boss. At present, very few people could ess the fifth floor. These Automation Tools Might Surprise You 12:59 Wed, 21 Feb G Chapter 112 People who lived in Drieso were well aware of what kind of ce The Urban was. The others couldn¡¯t help wondering, ¡°Who exactly is Emery? She just mentioned The Urban so casually as if it¡¯s the park!¡± But then again, it made sense. She was the famous Emery and the well-known songwriter in the entertainment industry, Samantha. The Urban was the only ce. worthy of her visit. As soon as Cassandra arrived at Springmount Townhouse, she saw an unexpected guest. It was Leonardo. ¡®Why is this guy still here? Can he just stop pestering me?¡® Cassandra grumbled in her mind. Leonardo also noticed her and hurriedly stepped forward. ¡°Where have you been these days? You weren''t in Drieso.¡± He nced at Cassandra¡¯s luggage and the backpack on her shoulders that seemed to be fully packed with things. He hadn¡¯t seen Cassandrae out in the past few days, and there was not even a trace of her elsewhere. The only exnation as to why she didn¡¯te home for several days was that she wasn¡¯t in Dries ¡°Mr. Yates, | don¡¯t think my whereabouts have anything to do with you,¡± Cassandra said in an unpleasant tone. ¡®He¡¯s meddling too much!¡® she thought. Surprisingly, Leonardo wasn¡¯t angered by Cassandra¡¯s words this time. Instead, het calmly exined, ¡°I didn¡¯t mean anything else. | was just worried about you.¡± ¡°You don¡¯t have to. Instead, you should care about Lisa. She¡¯s still suffering in jail now, isn¡¯t she?¡± Cassandra said sarcastically. Everyone in the Yates family was selfish, but they treated their adopted daughter extremely well. The irony was truly eye-opening.N?velDrama.Org is the owner. ¡°Cassie, don¡¯t be like this. | already know what kind of person Yulissa is.¡± Leonardo took. a deep breath and continued, ¡°I¡¯m sorry for all the mistakes I¡¯ve made before. Can you forgive me?¡± These Automation Tools Might Surprise You 12:59 Wed, 21 Feb & G Chapter 112 Cassandra chuckled lightly. ¡°Do you want to hear the truth?¡± Leonardo was confused by her question, but he still nodded. ¡°No, I''ll never forgive you. Abandon any hope of that. You, Yohannes, Raymond, and everyone else in the Yates family¡ªnone of you deserve forgiveness. Live the rest of your lives carrying your guilt and regret!¡± There was no way Cassandra would ever forgive them. ¡°Do you hate us that much?¡± Despite his distress, Leonardo asked persistently. ¡°Of course. | wish you all could die in front of me!¡± It was as if Cassandra was shrouded in frost. Although it was a scorching June, Leonardo felt chilly as he stood beside her. ¡°If you still want to be a mute, keep on speaking.¡± Cassandra was a little tired at that moment. She felt that her body was not as good as before. She wasn¡¯t sure if it was herziness, but she was a little exhausted after going back and forth these days. And now, Leonardo was getting in her way here. It was truly annoying. ¡°Cassandra, you wench! Where the hell have you been? Look at what happened to me!¡± It was Jasper. His back and legs were aplete mess, covered in scratch marks. He had tried hot water and cold water, but they only worked initially. For the past few days, Leonardo couldn''t find Cassandra. Jasper couldn''t help it anymore today. He was suffering so much that he felt like dying. Therefore, he came all the way here, and unexpectedly, the fates led him to her. Cassandra nced at Jasper. Although he was wearing clothes, she could already feel how miserable he was. ¡°Mr. Jasper Yates, you''re here! You seem much better. Not bad!¡± Jasper wished he could tear apart Cassandra¡¯s fake smile. ¡®She¡¯s going too far! What kind of medicine did she give me? Why do none of the ASS These Automation Tools Might Surprise You 12:59 Wed, 21 Feb 6 UG Chapter 112 medicines on the market and even those unlisted special effect medicines work against it?¡¯ he thought. He even sought help from his teacher, but it was still in vain as they were unable to identify the cause. ¡°Shut up and take out the antidote. Otherwise, | won''t let t off¡± Putting on a fearful expression, Cassandra mocked, ¡°I¡¯m so scared. Just bring it on!¡± ¡®A bunch of idiots!¡® she thought. Cassandra ignored them and went straight into the residential area. She didn¡¯t have the mood to deal with them today because she still had an appointment. At 6 p.m., Cassandra had tidied herself up, changed her clothes, and was ready to go. out. Hugo had many cars in his garage. In the end, Cassandra chose a rtively low-profile Volkswagen Phaeton. It was already the most low-key car in Hugo¡¯s garage. When she drove out of the residential area, she saw that Leonardo and Jasper were still at the entrance. She rolled up the car window and drove past them, but her movements did not go unnoticed by Leonardo. He still saw her. Jace, get in the car and go after that car ahead!¡± At the entrance of The Urban, II of them had already arrived and were waiting for Cassandra. Handing the car key to the valet, Cassandra said to them, ¡°Let¡¯s in!¡± ¡°Emery, you brought a Volkswagen Phaeton? You''re too low-key.¡± Everyone in their group owned several sports cars, and her choice of car made them feel ashamed of themselves.

What matters is it can run.¡± That''s true; what matters is it¡¯s nice to drive.¡± With that, the group of 12 headed for the hall. ¡°Hello, sirs and madam. Which floor is your reservation for?¡± ¡°Fourth floor.¡± Cassandra took out the card that she had deliberately gone back to get. Hearing that she was a guest of the fourth floor, the staff changed his attitude right away. After all, that meant she was a VVVIP, and he couldn''t afford to be negligent. The waiter hurriedly took the membership card to verify her identity. Surprisingly, despite her young age, she was indeed a guest of the fourth floor. ¡°Emery, you really keep such a low profile. | can¡¯t believe you''re actually a life member of The Urban!¡± The other people¡¯s curiosity was piqued when they heard this. ¡°Is being a life member here impressive?¡± ¡°Of course. My family is quite well-off, and after all these years, we¡¯ve only managed to reach the third floor. | originally wanted to invite you to the third floor, but it seems like we can go to a higher floor thanks to Emery! We''re so lucky today. | heard that the ingredients for all the dishes on the fourth floor are shipped by air on the same day, and their cooking skills are many times better than those of five-star Michelin chefs!¡± 5/5 Hf Chapter 113 Chapter 113 As expected of Emery. Even the ce she chose was so special. However, that was nothing special for Cassandra. That was because that ce was Jeremiah¡¯s private property. In his words, he wanted to experience a life of luxury and dissipation. Therefore, The Urban was founded. Every dish was exceptionally luxurious and prepared with the most extravagant ingredients. Therefore, to Cassandra, that was also considered her property. However, in the past two years, there was also a club offering a life of greater luxury and dissipation. Those who were worth around 20 billion dors might be more willing to go there. That club was rumored to host live auctions, which was something The Urbancked. ¡°Help yourself. This meal is on me.¡± Cassandra felt quite apologetic toward herrades.N?velDrama.Org is the owner. In her previous life, they also received a mission. But at that time, she devoted herself to matters of the Yates family and didn¡¯t join the mission. She even quit. While on duty, they were trapped. When watching the news, she saw that 11 people. from the information security department were said to have died in that sea area. She was the one who wronged them, so she wanted to make up for everything as best as she could. She couldn''t allow that tragedy to repeat. Fortunately, that mission went well. No one was hurt, so she felt better. One of them said, ¡°You''re treating, Emery? Emery, you are just a girl. How can we let you treat us? Let us pay instead!¡± If Emery were a man, he would be bound to treat them to that meal, and they would be determined to eat their fill. 115 These Automation Tools Tools Might Surpriss You A Chapter 113 20,21 re 68% However, their dream was shattered. Emery was a girl, not to mention one who had juste of age. It would be quite embarrassing if a young girl like her were to treat a group of men like them. Besides, no matter how expensive that meal was, everyone could afford it. ¡°No need to be courteous with me. Consider this our gathering. | promised you that the first meal of our gathering would be on me, and | didn¡¯t forget it.¡± Cassandra thought of the previous appointment with those people before she returned to the Yates family. They were like inte friends who just met, looking forward to meeting offline and agreeing on who to treat! Those people revered her, and she was willing to get along with them. Therefore, she figured she should pay for the meal. ¡°It''s just a meal. It doesn¡¯t matter who pays for it. It would be really embarrassing for the II of us to let you pay for it alone!¡± Thunder refused to let a girl pay for the meal. If that were to happen, they would be utterly embarrassed. Hence, he decided to pay for the meal. ¡°Let''s talk about itter, then.¡± Cassandra stopped talking and motioned for them to order. ¡°Baked escargot, chicken cordon bleu, and bluefin tuna steak. I''ll have one of each.¡± Cassandra took the lead in ordering the food. Seeing that they were a little restrained, she took the lead. Then, after she ordered the food, the others began to ce their food. During the meal, everyone chatted happily. Cassandra listened silently. She was fond of a quiet environment, but it was quite a refreshing experience to hear their interesting stories. ¡°Emery, I¡¯m still curious. What have you been doing and why didn¡¯t you show up?¡± 23 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A 12:59 Wed, 21 Feb Chapter 113 Spark asked what everyone was thinking. However, they didn¡¯t dare to ask in person for fear that the ending would hurt! Cassandra put down the cutlery, took a sip of juice, and smiled. ¡°I''m sorry. At first, | was ip of juice, and smiled. ¡°I¡¯m sorry.

However, it didn¡¯t work out, so | came back again. | hope you won''t be mad at me.¡± She thought, I''m sorry | gave up on all of you. I¡¯m sorry | left without saying goodbye!" Everyone was silent for a moment. Unexpectedly, that was what happened. The home she referred to was none other than the Yates family. They regarded the imposter as their precious daughter, turning a blind eye to Cassandra, the real daughter of the family. The Yates family members were truly blind. Spark was a little sorry. ¡°Sorry, | didn¡¯t know it would be like this...¡± Some of them were alone, but they had no expectations for their families. They might not be able to put themselves in Cassandra''s shoes, but they could fathom how she must''ve felt. They thought, ¡®Emery must consider us her close friends to be willing to share this with 1. us. ¡°It''s okay. It¡¯s all in the past. Now, I¡¯m still your Emery.¡± Cassandra chuckled. They quickly changed the subject and said something else to lighten up the mood. ¡°You guys are in Drieso. You can spend a lot of time together in the future, but I¡¯m not far away. Sloummont is only a few hours. away, so we¡¯re quite close!¡± ¡°I''m in Strasson. It''s convenient for me toe here too.¡± Cassandra pursed her lips and smiled. ¡°No matter where we are, we''re all together, right?¡± Everyone nodded, thinking her words made sense.

No one will dare to bully you in Drieso!¡± Thunder drank a little too much that night. As a result, he felt a little dizzy. They chatted for too long, so they didn¡¯t y in the entertainment area and went. straight back. They could feel at ease only after seeing Emery get into the car. Meanwhile, at the entrance of The Urban. Leonardo and Jasper had been waiting at the entrance for a long time. 67% They asked the waitress to help them locate Cassandra, but the waitress told them she wasn¡¯t qualified to do so. It wasn¡¯t that she didn¡¯t have permission, but they weren¡¯t allowed to divulge any information about the customers on the fourth and fifth floors, no matter who inquired. The waitress wouldn''t let Leonardo and Jasper bother Cassandra! Moreover, the two didn¡¯t dare to cause trouble in The Urban, so they could only wait. outside. However, they waited from six thirty in the evening to eleven at night. Jasper was already impatient, but Leonardo insisted on waiting. Jasper had no choice but to keep Leonardopany. He was deeply annoyed. Jasper thought, ¡®Damn Cassandra. What are you doing in there? Is this even a ce she¡¯s qualified to visit? I''ve been a member here for so long, yet | can only qualify for the second floor. Even so, that¡¯s already a symbol of my status!¡± Finally, Cassandra exited the building. ¡°Cassie, what were you doing in there?

Why won''t you give me a chance?¡¯ ¡°Oh? Why did they tell me the bill was paid when | went to pay the bill?¡± Thunder was thest to exit the building. He went to foot the bill but was informed that the bill had already been settled. However, Emery never left the room! ¡°Isn''t it good that someone paid the bill? We''ll just consider this a free meal!¡± ¡°Which one of you paid for it?

Besides, I¡¯m not rted to you now, yet you''re still pointing fingers and acting high and mighty in front of me. Have you not learned your lesson yet? Don¡¯t you have anything better to do?¡± Cassandra erupted in anger. ¡®So this is how the Yates family raise their children?¡± she thought.

Jasper hadpletely lost his sanity now. ¡°Cassandra Yates, you better hand over the antidote, or I¡¯ll sue you immediately!¡± Every inch of skin all over his body was covered in scars and wounds, and he had lost. his mind. ¡°If you have evidence, go ahead and sue me!¡± Cassandra said indifferently. ¡°Cassie,e home with us first. It¡¯s not safe here,¡± said Leonardo. ¡°Going back with you is even worse than staying here. Cassandra turned to the men. and said, ¡°Go on back to where you came from. I¡¯m heading back, too.¡± Cassandra couldn''t be bothered to deal with them anymore. Instead, she called for the security guards to escort them out. At the base of the Falcon Special Operations Force, the first thing Keh did when he returned to the base was to dispose of Ivan and expel him from the army forever. Ivan was never to be re-employed. Everyone begged for mercy on his behalf. However, it was useless, since disobeying orders was considered the biggest crime one couldmit. Moreover, heunched a sneak attack during thepetition and, even after losing, tried to attack Yulissa. He had already vited a major taboo, and not just one. One of the soldiers cried out, ¡°Commander Zelinski, lvan has made significant contributions several times. Can you give him another chance?¡± It was hard for the soldiers to ept the oue. They couldn''t just stand by and watch Ivan get kicked out, 3/5 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You 13:00 Wed, 21 Feb Chapter 114 ¡°What is the duty of a soldier?

Ivan tantly ignored others¡® merits!¡± ¡°Commander... Maybe...¡± ¡°Whoever intercedes for him again will be charged with the same crime! Get lost!¡± he shouted. Everyone fell silent and did not dare to speak. Ivan¡¯s discharge from the military was inevitable, and no one could do anything about ¡®bits Kayden and Keh returned to the office. ¡°Ken, you fired Ivan just like that?¡± asked Kayden. Ivan was a rare talent. However, he had offended somebody he should not have offended. ¡°What do you want to say?¡± he replied. ¡°I''m just surprised that you flew into a fit of anger for the sake of your beloved and even...¡± ¡°Shut your mouth if you don¡¯t want to die!¡± Keh stared daggers at Kayden. ¡°No, no, I¡¯m just kidding!¡± Kayden said before putting on a serious demeanor. ¡°I must say, Ms. Yates is really amazing. My cousin, who is also 18 this year, is attending some elite school. She will be taking SAT this year, too, and | don¡¯t know how she''ll do. They''re both the same age.

Recognizing the depth of hurt they caused Cassandra, being treated that way seemed understandable to him. Nevertheless, he hoped it would be thest time and also wished that Cassandra could see their remorse and sincere efforts. ¡°Leo, Cassandra really went too far. | mean, we¡¯re her own brothers, and she¡¯s letting. people treat us like this?¡± Jasper fumed, itching to give Cassandra a piece of his mind. ¡°Hey, watch your words, man. Have you ever thought about what you¡¯re saying? Even if you don¡¯t like her, what right do you have to talk like that? Think about the implications of your words. It¡¯s unbelievable, especially with your higher education!¡± Leonardo scolded Jasper discontentedly. It was tough for him to tolerate those words, but he couldn''t directly go against Jasper in front of so many people. Leonardo had already spared Jasper¡¯s dignity by not. retaliating earlier, but thetter was still going on about it. Jasper got a bit worked up, feeling irritated. ¡°I¡¯m just saying what¡¯s on my mind, you know. | didn¡¯t mean anything else. She just got on my nerves!¡± ¡°All right, cut it out. Just head back already!¡± Leonardo impatiently waved him away. ¡°Leo, aren''t you heading back?¡± Jasper asked, feeling a bit puzzled. He couldn''t figure out why everyone was leaving home one after another. ¡®Maybe Cassandra cast some kind of spell on them,¡¯ he mused. ¡°No.¡± Leonardo curtly replied, walking toward his car without giving Jasper any more. attention. Later, Jasper arrived home to discover hisputer still on, notifications shing ont the screen. ¡®Could it be a response to the paper | submitted? Is it epted?¡® he pondered immediately. He had submitted an academic paper to the Science Journal a while ago and hadn¡¯t received a response yet. These Automation Tools Might Surprise You 13:00 Wed, 21 Feb 6WG Chapter 115 ncing at the email, it appeared to be from the official website. 9x67% For a moment, he set aside the difort he was feeling and eagerly opened the email. [Dear Jasper, considering that the experimental data presented in your paper cannot yield reasonable results, the paper does not meet the criteria for inclusion in Science. We sincerely apologize for this oue.] The email hit Jasper like a ton of bricks. After nearly half a year of experimenting, refining his submitting it, he faced rejection. paper, and confidently The straightforward rejection felt like a punch to the gut, especially for someone like him. In his frustration, he reached out to senior peers who had experience publishing in simr journals, seeking insights and advice. Unfortunately, he received no response. At Springmount Townhouse, Cassandra was engaged in a conversation with the chairman of Science. ¡°Dr. Quirke, Jasper¡¯s paper is outstanding. Why reject it?¡± The person on the other end couldn¡¯t fathom why Faye would dismiss such an excellent piece. In the Science Academic Special Issue, only the chairman knew Faye¡¯s true identity; others remained oblivious. Faye held the ultimate authority over each publication. If this information were known, the Science reviewers would likely be astounded. Yet, here was Faye, rejecting papers with unwavering decisiveness. ¡°The data¡¯s messed up, lots of viewpoints are unsupported, and exnations are all over the ce.¡± For Faye, those reasons alone were enough. While this paper had the potential to be epted by Science, it suffered from numerous errors andcked a hundred percent uracy. It was unfortunate that Jasper had offended Faye. Rather than resorting to physical confrontation, this kind of rejection seemed to inflict a deeper wound. These Automation Tools Might Surprise You Chapter 115 These few papers had been lingering on Cassandra¡¯s side for a while now. If it weren¡¯t for Jasper¡¯s reckless behavior today, she probably wouldn¡¯t have even remembered those papers. Trying to publish a paper full of mistakes? How shameless, she thought. ¡°All right. From now on, this guy¡¯s papers... The chairman had a strange feeling that Jasper somehow rubbed Faye the wrong way, leading to these outright rejections. Some other papers had weak arguments and evidence without strong data support, but Faye let them slide. Yet, Jasper¡¯s paper, despite being more professional, got the boot. There was only one exnation: Jasper had somehow ticked off Faye! ¡°I''ll leave it to you to decide. This statement practically closed off Jasper¡¯s opportunities. From then on, Science Academic Special Issue had, in essence, cklisted Jasper. Jasper spent the entire night contemting but couldn¡¯t fathom what went wrong. With dark eye bags, he headed to the hospital the next day. He headed straight to the hospital director, hoping to get some insight on the puzzling situation. ¡°Dr. Yates, | called the Science department director this morning. | heard that Dr. Quirke rejected your paper. So, there¡¯s no point in pressing further,¡± the hospital director said, sounding somewhat defeated. A paper turned down by Faye was pretty much a lost cause. ¡°W-What''s happening? Just six months ago, one of my papers got the nod, and it was Dr. Quirke who greenlit it! Why the change now?¡± Jasper couldn¡¯t wrap his head around. why this was going on. Before, when Faye reviewed his paper, there was heaps of praise. This time, Jasper was even more sure that his work was top¡ª notch. He had expected Faye¡¯s approval, but out of the blue, it was rejected. ¡°How could | ept this? No, I¡¯ve got to figure something out!¡¯ he determined. The director of the National Security Bureau, Daniel, sent Cassandra a message, requesting her presence at the bureau. These Automation Tools Might Surprise You Wed, 21 Feb Chapter 115 Cassandra was a bit perplexed, thinking, ¡°What''s this about? We''ve alwaysmunicated online before! Curious, Cassandra asked for more details, but Daniel didn¡¯t provide any exnation, only instructing her toe in person. Thus, Cassandra didn¡¯t push for more information; she just made her way to the bureau. Daniel had arranged for someone to be waiting downstairs in advance, so when. Cassandra arrived at the National Security Bureau, apart from the regr checks, there were no additional obstacles. Soon, she arrived at Daniel''s office. Waiting for her were Keh and Kayden, both decked out in military gear, along with a few other unfamiliar soldiers. ¡°What''s going on here?¡± Cassandra wondered. ¡°Emery, these folks are here to give you a Commendation Medal from the state.¡± Daniel grinned. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, your information is strictly confidential. You can rest assured that they won''t be disclosed without your say¡ªso.¡± Daniel could read Cassandra well enough to pick up on her concerns. He reassured Cassandra once more, ¡°Emery, trust me, we¡¯re keeping your info entirely. confidential. Safeguarding personnel in the information security department is our duty.¡± ¡°What''s this Commendation Medal all about?¡± Cassandra inquired with a slight nod. ¡°Your performance during the rescue operation was top-notch. Commander Zelinski reported it straight up the chain, so this time, you''re getting the highestmendation.¡± Ha SEND GIFT Chapter 116 Chapter 116 Cassandra was awarded The Distinguished Service Cross. Keh applied for the award, and Cassandra deserved such a military merit. The sessfulpletion of the mission, achieved without deploying a single soldier, prompted the top brass to re-examine the information security department, which wasposed of hackers. They believed the department could provide enhanced protection rights for the country. Just like the evacuation operation. They were prepared for someone to make a sacrifice, but there were no casualties. except for the one who was expelled from the military. It was a miracle for them. Cassandra felt a bit ttered. She had anticipated receiving only amendation, but unexpectedly, she got the Commendation Medal. She felt that she did not deserve it. However, since she was a citizen of the country, she deserved themendation. ¡°Thank you for the acknowledgment...¡± ¡°Congrattions.¡± Keh congratted her sincerely. Cassandra was congratted by Kayden as well. ¡°Thank you.¡± Cassandra left after receiving the Commendation Medal. Keh had something. important to do at Falcon Special Operations Force¡¯s base, so he could not take his leave yet. Therefore, they hurriedly met each other and left. Cassandra went straight to Whitecrane Hall after leaving. If she was correct, Raymond''s arm was in the final stage of treatment and would be cured in about a week. As expected, when Cassandra arrived at Whitecrane Hall, she saw Hugo administering These Autonation Tools Might Surprise You A 13:00 Wed, 21 Feb 5 uy Chapter 116N?velDrama.Org is the owner. acupuncture to Raymond. When Scarlett saw hering, she went up to greet her enthusiastically. ¡°Scarlett, | can go by myself. You can go back to work!¡± As far as Scarlett was concerned, she was just a regr guest at Whitecrane Hall and Hugo¡¯s family. Scarlett did not know that she was the owner of Whitecrane Hall, so Scarlett had always treated her as a guest. However, Cassandra did not attempt to correct it. After all, it was not a big deal. ¡°Cassie, you came.¡± Raymond was surprised and delighted to see her. Cassandra replied, ¡°Raymond, | don¡¯t know you very well. Don¡¯t call me like you know me very well.¡± Raymond, who had been overjoyed, was left battered and joyless. He felt more disappointed. ¡°Cassie, we''re brothers and sisters no matter what... We''re...¡°. ¡®A family, Raymond said inwardly. However, Cassandra interrupted him before he could say that. ¡°We do not know each other well. | have repaid you with my blood. And I¡¯ve paid back. the living expenses and tuition when you raised me for two months. It¡¯s best that the Yates family and | end up as strangers, but you kept provoking me. It¡¯s disgusting. Don¡¯t forget that you made a statement to sever our rtionship. Don¡¯t you think it¡¯s funny to say these things now?¡± Cassandra did not want to hear anything about them being siblings. If it had happened. when she had just returned to the Yates family, she might have been grateful. Now she just found it ridiculous. She would not be so calm now if she had not taken Yohannes and his shares. ¡°eco Raymond could not argue because it was the truth. ¡°Raymond, leave as soon as your hand is healed. Otherwise, | won''t hesitate to disable it again.¡± 7B} AFS These Automation Tools Might Surprise You Chapter 116 Cassandra was annoyed when she saw the hand. In her previous life, he punched her in the stomach with those hands. She could not let him go unless she broke his hands. She saved him with the intention of witnessing him despair due to his disability, but now, after the ident, she was not concerned, as there were ample opportunities. Raymond subconsciously wanted to pull his hand back, knowing that Cassandra was telling the truth. She could break his hand in an instant. ¡°| will shut up... He made a gesture of covering his mouth as he reluctantly shut up. Raymond had learned to obey. At least he would not expect Cassandra to forgive him. anymore. If that really happened one day, pigs could fly. He had treated Cassandra the worst. She probably hated him the most, apart from Yulissa. Therefore, he stopped asking her out of frustration. At most, he would greet her and. say nothing else when he ran into her. Just like now, where he shut up immediately. However, he seemed to have forgotten to ask about something. ¡°Cassie... Cassandra, could you reach out to Dr. Quirke? Jace is eager to understand why his thesis was rejected...¡± Raymond was perplexed as well. He was aware that the doctor had praised Jasper¡¯s initial Science Academic Special Issue paper, leading to its sessful publication. That encouragement seemed to inspire him to keep writing. At the time, Jasper had said he was confident and that his thesis was better than thest one, but it had been rejected. He could not figure out the reason. Jasper was aware that Faye was attending to Raymond, so he hoped Raymond would inquire on his behalf. However, apart from their initial encounter, Raymond didn¡¯t spot her on subsequent asions. 3/5 AR These Automation Tools Might Surprise You 13:00 Wed, 21 Febr Chapter 116 He just happened to run into Cassandra today and thought that she might know. something about it. ¡°Will Mr. Jasper Yates not realize the issues with his work? Is he confident about the quality of his paper? The final article had been published because Cassandra had been aware that Jasper was her brother. In reality, there had been some errors in the content. She had hacked into hisputer, altered the original data, and changed the experiment notes. As a result, Jasper believed that his paper had been of high quality. He had gotten the honor because she had given it to him. If she had not wanted to give him honor, she could have taken it back at any time. Cassandra wondered, ¡®Did Jasper really think he was good?¡± Raymond was rendered speechless. Raymond thought, ¡°Why does it seem like Cassandra knows everything? This must bet an illusion!¡± However, Raymond did not want any trouble. Now that his hand was at her mercy, she might break it again if she became upset. If he crippled his hand again, there would be nothing left to pique Cassandra¡¯s interest. Therefore, it was better for him to remain silent. Cassandra then went to Jeremiah¡¯s office. ¡°Help me put these things away,¡± she ordered. Cassandra took the Commendation Medal and themendation orders from her bag and gave them to Jeremiah for safekeeping. ¡°Tsk! You amaze the world with a single brilliant feat! The Distinguished Service Cross,¡± Jeremiah taunted. Yet, his tone carried a sense of pride. Their ine was truly outstanding. He unlocked the safety deposit box in his office, filled with her medals and trophies. These Automation Tools Might Surprise You Wed, 21 Feb Chapter 116 Cassandra had described them as too ostentatious to use, so Hugo dedicated an entire floor for storing them. After he had done all of that, Jeremiah walked up to her. ¡°My dear Samantha, your manager Keith is looking for you!¡± Jeremiah knew that because Cassandra had not informed her contact information to Keith, but instead, she had given him Jeremiah¡¯s phone number. Samantha had been out of the country when Keith had been in search of her for so Keith had called many times, but Jeremiah had blocked him many times because he thought they were harassment calls. Jeremiah had even blocked the other phone numbers Keith had used to call him. In the end, Keith had to text Jeremiah to rify his identity before Jeremiah would unblock the phone numbers that had been blocked by him. Keith almost cursed Jeremiah when thetter received his call. Hf Chapter 117 Chapter 117 ¡°Didn''t Keith say what¡¯s the matter?¡± Cassandra¡¯s tone made it seem as if she had forgotten she even had a manager. ¡°No, but he asked you to call him back. If you''re free, do it,¡± replied Jeremiah. Hearing that, Cassandra nodded. Cassandra was kind of a solitary person. Keith usually managed singers, and theoretically speaking, lyricists didn¡¯t need a manager. But when that entertainmentpany found Cassandra online, it meant that there would be a manager responsible for managing Cassandra¡¯s work in the future. That was why she had this manager. However, she didn¡¯t want to be bothered by many things at that time. Therefore, she left Jeremiah¡¯s phone number to Keith and also told thetter to contact her online as much as possible. She thought, ¡®It seems that there is something urgent. Could it be that he¡¯s urging me to write the lyrics for a song? However, he didn¡¯t give me any music score that needed lyrics to be written!¡± Cassandra asked for Keith''s number and called him. ¡°Hello, I¡¯m Keith.¡± The voice on the other end, while not particrly maic, could be considered somewhat crisp. ¡°!''m Samantha.¡± ¡°Darling Samantha, you''re finally willing to call me!¡± The other end began to cry andin directly. Keith thought, ¡®It¡¯s not easy! Ms. Jenkins finally stopped ignoring me!¡± ¡°Is anything the matter?¡± Cassandra went straight to the point and didn¡¯t want to talk nonsense. ¡°| have a variety show here. The production team wants to invite you to participate in it. Do you have time?¡± Keith was ready to be rejected. However, he still didn¡¯t want to give up and wanted to lobby a few more times. He had even figured out what to say to persuade her. 1/15 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You 13:00 Wed, 21 Feb Chapter 117 67% ¡°| don¡¯t have time. | won¡¯t go!¡± Cassandra bluntly refused. She thought, ¡®Participating in a variety show, huh? That¡¯s the most troublesome thing.* ¡°But this variety show is a slow¡ªliving variety show, which is to portray real life. It¡¯s not tooplicated. Ms. Jenkins, | think you can participate in it.

I''ve watched Cassandra''s appearance in thepetition at Spaunia. Her looks can easily defeat all other female celebrities in the entertainment industry! Therefore, | don¡¯t want Ms. Jenkins to only be behind the scenes! ¡®Of course, this depends on her opinion!¡± ¡°How much?¡± Cassandra asked. ¡°What?¡± ¡°How much is the appearance fee?¡± Cassandra thought she could take a listen. She thought, ¡®If it¡¯s convenient to make money, maybe | can go.¡± ¡°40 million dors...¡± He thought, ¡®I guess that¡¯s not low, right?¡± ¡°Well, who are the guests?¡± ¡°Diva Amelia Coleman, divo Thomas Larson, best actor Frederick, and two other guests who have not been identified yet!¡± Hearing that, Cassandra raised her eyebrow and thought, ¡®Frederick is participating, too? | was still worried about how to teach him a lesson. Well, here he is! I''m sure Frederick would be happy to do such a humiliating thing in front of the whole nation. That''s it. Because of this, I''ll definitely join the show!¡± ¡°I''ll join. What''s the name of this show?¡± she asked. ¡°Hello, Life, answered Keith. ¡°Send me the details and time. I¡¯m using this phone number on WhatsApp as well. Please add me.¡± 2/5 These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A 13:00 Wed, 21 Feb Chapter 117 G 67%1 Cassandra hung up the phone directly after saying that. Jeremiah was a little curious and thought, ¡®Why did Cassie, who had just been refusing to join the show, suddenly agree at once? This doesn¡¯t make sense!¡± He asked. ¡°Did you just say yes to recording a show?¡± ¡°Yeah,¡± she replied. ¡°It seems that | heard it right!¡¯ he thought before saying, ¡°Aren¡¯t you the most afraid of trouble? Why did you still agree to join the show?¡± He then thought, ¡®You even handed over my phone number to your manager. And now, you¡¯ve changed your mind?¡± ¡°Because Frederick will be on the show. Of course, I¡¯m going!¡± she responded. She thought, ¡®If his many press releases and shootings didn¡¯t cause him to be away from Drieso often, making me unable to find him, | wouldn¡¯t have to bother wasting my energy to record the show! ¡®But this is good, too. No matter in my past life or this life, he had thrown me into the vortex of public opinion. So, I''ll let him have a taste of being crushed by public opinion as well. Back then, many people stopped being his fans when he brainlessly defended Yulissa. However, under hispany¡¯s operation, he disappeared for a period of time and went to do some charity, which made him win the favor of passers¡ªby again. Moreover, his new action drama had been aired, and he had gotten some new fans. For him, it didn¡¯t affect him much. After all, theizens would easily forget everything. So, this time, Cassandra took the initiative to appear before him. Their endings weren''t miserable enough. Although Yohannes hadn¡¯t done anything to Cassandra in her previous life, she didn¡¯t like the look in his eyes. Leonardo was still so high and mighty, and it was all because everything from the Yates. family would certainly be handed over to him in the future. But Cassandra wondered what would happen if Leonardo knew that the Yates Family had lost everything. These Automation Tools Might Surprise You Chapter 117 Cassandra believed it would be utterly interesting. ¡°So, are you just doing that to get back at Frederick?¡± Jeremiah was a little confused by Cassandra¡¯s action. He thought, ¡®Why is that so?¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t say anything and acquiesced directly. ¡°All right, then. Do you need me to apany you?¡± Jeremiah didn¡¯t ask why. He just asked if she needed him to apany her when recording the show. ¡°No need. Take good care of these properties!¡± Cassandra thought of something and said, ¡°Give me some membership cards for The Urban.¡± ¡°What floor? How many?¡± ¡°For the third floor. | need 11 cards. I''ll give you the identity information of these. people. Their expenses should all get a 35% discount.¡± Jeremiah was shocked. ¡°That''s way too cheap!¡± To obtain the third floor¡¯s membership card, one required a spending of 4 million. dors. Besides, even if there was a discount, it was only 5% off. Jeremiah thought, ¡°This is just great! These people get a 35% discount! If they came to eat every day, | would suffer a huge loss!Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org. ¡®l also paid for the meal yesterday! At the normal price, they ate a few hundred thousand dors worth of a meal... Jeremiah suddenly felt that he had made a terrible friend. ¡°So, will you give them to me or not?¡± she asked and thought, ¡®If you don''t, I''ll destroy The Urban!¡± ¡°Of course, I¡¯ll give them to you!¡± ¡°Ask someone to prepare the cards now and send them over to me in two hours!¡± Jeremiah was rendered speechless and had the urge to jump off the second floor. Two hourster, Cassandra got the membership cards contentedly. Just then, those people from the information security department gathered at the airport to see theirrades from other towns off. Cassandra definitely couldn¡¯t be left out. These Automation Tools Might Surprise You A 5/5 13:01 Wed, 21 Feb 0 Chapter 117 Hence, she rode her Harley and went to the airport as fast as she could, as it was the evening rush hour at this time. If she drove a car at this time, she would be stuck in a traffic jam. When Cassandra arrived at the airport, the others had been waiting for a long time in the airport waiting room. All 11 people were present. Cassandra handed The Urban¡¯s membership cards to each of them ording to their names. ¡°This is the membership card for The Urban¡¯s third flood. Consider it a meeting gift from me. These 11 cards are all registered under your real name. You''ll get a 35% discount if you go there in person!¡± She doesn¡¯t have anything to give them. Since she watched them eat the food at The Urban yesterday and enjoyed it very much, she just decided to give them a membership card. ¡°Wow! Emery, you''re so generous! A 35%-discount membership card is equivalent to a free meal!¡± Thunder was extremely shocked. After all, he was someone who owned a membership card for the third floor. To be exact, his family owned it. Thunder thought, ¡®My family spent a solid 4 million dors to obtain the membership card. Besides, they could only get a 5% discount. But this? What a gift!¡± The 11 people put the cards away carefully, as if they had never seen a membership card before. After all, it was a treasure. ¡°Emery, we also have gifts for you. But we don¡¯t know your home address. We will send them to Thunder''s house by then. Remember to collect them.¡± ¡°Okay. Thank you!¡± fii) SEND GIFT Chapter 118 Chapter 118 The production team was afraid that Samantha would change her mind. Therefore, they immediately contacted all the cast members and started filming. But there was no need to prepare anything else. The production team just had to prepare a ce to live for the cast members. They have to cook and work on their own. They had to do everything on their own in exchange for food. In addition, this program was adopting a live broadcast format throughout. After all, Lemon Station had put a lot of effort into this slow¡ªliving variety show, and Lemon Station also paid to invite A-listers. Then, the production team must make sure to do it well. When Cassandra heard that it was a live broadcast throughout, she was definitely interested. Three dayster, the filming of the show officially began. This time, they would be going to a vige in Strasson county. Cassandra traveled light and simple. Since she was going to the vige, she opted for convenience. It would only take half a month to record the show, which was still fine. Cassandra was carrying a backpack and a 22-inch suitcase. As for her outfit, since the weather was hot, she wore a white short-sleeve top, a pair of cropped jeans, and a pair of sneakers.

Maybe in front of the camera, he¡¯s a little embarrassed,¡± Amelia said. Thomas scratched his head while standing behind Amelia. He was indeed a fan of Samantha. Although it was not as long as being Amelia¡¯s fan, Thomas had liked Samantha for more than four years. Cassandra suddenly felt like she was having a fan meeting here. Hearing that Amelia had exposed him, Thomas had no choice but to take the initiative. and step forward to greet Cassandra. ¡°Hello, Ms. Jenkins! I¡¯m Thomas Larson!¡± ¡°Hello!¡± The three of them arrived first, so the host announced that they would form a group. The remaining three guests will automatically form a group. These Automation Tools Might Surprise You Chapter 118 The first of the remaining three guests to make an appearance was an amateur named Jenny Yost. Thest guest to make an appearance was Frederick. He even had someone following behind him. Theizenmented: [Wow! | finally waited for my Freddy to show up! Wherever Freddy goes, Freno will follow!] izen eximed: [Wow! Freddy is as handsome as ever!] Someone wrote: [I really love Freddy¡¯s appearance!] Oneizen remarked: [Who is the amateur behind Freddy? It can¡¯t be a rookie thepany assigned him to look after, right?] Someone noted: [Well, this is going too far!] ¡°Hello, everyone. Thank you for waiting!¡± Frederick greeted everyone gentlemanly. He was also followed by an assistant. Frederick was carrying a suitcase in one hand and a bag in another. The person behind him only carried a bag. Meanwhile, Frederick''s assistant was pushing two suitcases and carrying two backpacks¡ªone on their chest and one on their back. It seemed that the person following Frederick had many baggage. ¡°Hi, Freddy. Is the person behind you thest amateur guest today?¡± the host asked enthusiastically. ¡°Yes. This is my sister, Yulissa Yates!¡± Frederick walked out hand in hand with Yulissa and approached the camera. Cassandra just frowned. She seemed to have expected this result.

Why did she appear now?] Someone wrote: [Look at Ms. Jenkins¡¯ expression! It looks a little gloomy!] Someone retorted: [Don¡¯t nder our Darling Samantha, okay? She always has this expression!] Frederick nced at Cassandra provocatively. He thought, ¡®Since you dare send Lisa to the detention center, then we have our ways to get her out! There¡¯s no such thing as being sentenced formitting a crime. ¡°Those who are convicted just don¡¯t have enough money! ¡®When one is wealthy enough, it¡¯s easy to settle anything. With a timid and slightly fearful expression, Yulissa clutched the corner of Frederick¡¯s shirt and greeted everyone. ¡°Hello, everyone. My name is Yulissa Yates. Please take care of me in the future!¡± Although the host didn¡¯t know the connection between Yulissa, Frederick, and Cassandra, Amelia did. Amelia wished she could tear apart Yulissa¡¯s hypocritical face. Cassandra remained expressionless from beginning to end. This was almost what Cassandra had expected. ording to how much Miranda loved Yulissa, it was certain that Miranda would go every day. Since Benjamin was unreliable, Miranda had to manage things for Yulissa. As long as Yulissa could get out, Miranda would do anything. It was unclear whether Miranda was foolish or smart. Surprisingly, she embezzled Benjamin¡¯s remaining money, which was about 7 billion dors, and also the 5% share without permission.N?velDrama.Org is the owner. Previously, Benjamin felt it was unsafe to keep the share in his own hands, fearing that Cyrus would continue to covet it. Thus, he transferred it to Miranda''s name. These Automation Tools Might Surprise You 13:01 Wed, 21 Feb Chapter 118 Unfortunately, it was difficult to guard against family thieves despite all precautions. Unexpectedly, Miranda used all the money and shares to bribe the director of the Public Security Bureau just to let Yulissa out. Miranda thought that as long as she gave enough benefits, there was no need to take Lucas¡® words seriously. Little did she know, this was a trap set up by all of them together... SEND GIFT These Automation Tools Might Surprise Your 0 COMMENT A 67% Chapter 119 Chapter 119 The director of the Public Security Bureau and Lucas were army buddies, and Lucas saved his life before. So, whenever Lucas needed any help from the director, the director wouldn''t say no him. It was the same case when it came to this matter concerning Yulissa. to Initially, there was an order for strict investigation, but somehow Miranda managed to find the director to save Yulissa. Knowing it would be futile to turn to Lucas, Miranda resorted to bribing the director instead. She emptied the 7 billion dors from her family¡¯s assets. When Yulissa was released, Miranda even gave Benjamin''s 5% share, which had been transferred to her, as a token of gratitude to the director. Miranda meant to grease the wheels. Yet, she still kept tens of millions of dors for herself. She''d never expected that the first time she approached the director, he would inform Lucas. After all, the whole thing was designed to set her up. Benjamin regarded the remaining money as crucial because he intended to make aeback with it. Billions of dors was more than enough for anything. The reason why Cassandra hadn''t figured out how to get the money was precisely. because Benjamin deemed this money so important. But this time, Cassandra thought, ¡®God bless me! Somebody screw things up for herself. ¡®Miranda gave away all the money, showing Yulissa¡¯s iparable position in her heart. ¡®But how would she react when she finds out she has given away the entire Yates family¡¯s fortune? ¡®I can¡¯t wait to see Benjamin¡¯s reaction and Miranda''s response when the truth hits them like thunderbolts!¡¯ Amelia knew that Cassandra was from the Yates family and how the Yates family had maltreated Cassandra for Yulissa. [e) 10:39 Fri, 23 Feb Chapter 119 So, when she saw Yulissa, Amelia really felt an intense dislike. Of course, the host smelt gunpowder in the air, hence immediately cutting in, ¡°Frederick and his sister, as well as Jenny, an amateur friend, form another team. The two teams will live separately in the next few days, tradingbor for food. Daily tasks will be assigned by the production team early in the morning, with a two-week cycle. | hope everyone enjoys the game!¡± After saying that, the host¡¯s job was done. As the six of them were divided into two teams, Amelia and Thomas were undoubtedly happy because being with their idol was like possessing spiritual sustenance for them. However, Frederick was a little reluctant. ¡®Why should | be grouped with an amateur?¡± he thought. With this thought, he said, ¡°Cassandra,e here, switch with Miss Yost, and join our team!¡± Frederick hadn''t forgotten that Cassandra could cook very well and anything she cooked turned out so delicious. Due to his constant rush in filming, he often skipped meals, resulting in stomach problems. What Cassandra cooked and her recipes had worked wonders for him, helping him manage his gastrosis. Her recipes were wonderfully paired and had a distinct taste, which greatly improved his appetite. Since he was on the production team, Frederick thought, ¡®Who else could cook for me if not Cassandra? ¡®She just doesn¡¯t get it? ¡®So what if she¡¯s Samantha Jenkins or ine? ¡®Cassandra is still a member of the Yates family. But Cassandra seemed to find his words amusing, saying, ¡°Our best actor, Frederick, are you serious? We three came first, so we formed our team. You three cameter, forming your team. How can you break the rules before the game even starts?¡± Frederick hadn¡¯t expected that Cassandra would reject him. Frederick''s tone was a bit cold, but his fans were used to it, as they believed this was purely because of his personality. [What''s going on? Is the provocation starting already?] [Why?

Sure, we share thest name Yates, but don¡¯t regard anyone with the samest name as your rtives, OK?¡± Cassandra straight denied it. She thought, ¡®Family? ¡°We''re more like enemies!¡± ¡°Don''t push it too far!¡± He thought, ¡®| made my request so nicely. How could she still not come over? ¡°Wasn''t she the one who used to follow me everywhere, iming she liked me so much? ¡°What''s going on now? My friends all said she had changed. How much more could she change? Just became even worse!¡¯ ¡°Cassandra, are you angry because of me? | apologize to you. Don¡¯t be mad at Fred, please. You two are family. Please don¡¯t- Yulissa¡¯s angle was perfect. The camera directly faced her as she cried and pleaded, evoking sympathy from everyone. ¡°Ms. Yulissa Yates, there is no one named Cassandra in the Yates family. My name, Cassandra, was given by the olddy who adopted me. It has nothing to do with the Yates family.

She thought, This b itch! Why did she have to bring this up in front of everyone?¡± Trying to remainposed, she replied, ¡°Cassandra, it was not true. Why would | want to hurt you? You are my sister. I¡ª¡± ¡°Don''t tell me you were just joking when you had someone on a motorcyclee crash into me on the day of my SAT.

Why did she ask someone to crash into Samantha?] [That''s too mean!] [Why would such a person still appear on the screen? She was a murderer!] [Who knows whether Samantha¡¯s words are actually true or not? Maybe she¡¯s just ndering!] [Huh? Are you losing your mind? Samantha was joking about her life? Are you kidding me?

By this time, they might have already made their choices. [e) Chapter 120 Chapter 120 Frederick was confused. What did Cassandra mean by that? However, the next moment, Frederick saw Thomas and Ameliae out from one side. There were four rooms in total. Thomas and Amelia had already chosen one room each, so Frederick¡¯s team had no choice. Amelia took Cassandra¡¯s hand excitedly and said, ¡°Samantha, | chose a room. It looks super nice. We will share it from now on!¡± [Why do | feel that Ms. Jenkins is deliberately holding back Frederick here?] [Well, | think so, too.] [That''s so shrewd! But | like it!] [Somehow | think Samantha¡¯s a little cute. After saying what she wanted to say, she talked about business with Frederick so that her teammate could have enough time to choose a room. She is so adorable!] [Ils she cute? She¡¯s so disgusting! How could she y tricks on a variety show?] [Is that a trick? It was Frederick who had been talking to Samantha. Find out what was going on.] [Can''t you stop quarreling in thement section? It¡¯s annoying!] ¡°Cassandra, you cheat!¡± Frederick was furious. He thought they used dirty tricks. They let Cassandra hold Frederick off so they could pick rooms for themselves. It was so despicable. Frederick shouted at the staff, ¡°It¡¯s not fair. They yed tricks!¡± Hearing this, Amelia immediately became unhappy. She thought, ¡®Any one of us is more famous than Frederick.¡¯ Amelia said, ¡°Frederick, the director Mr. Smith said that he would only give us three minutes to choose the rooms. It was you who wasted time there. Who can you me? We didn¡¯t y tricks. Didn¡¯t you keep talking with Ms. Jenkins?¡± 10.40 Fri, 23 Feb Chapter 120 Amelia stood out and defended her idol. Frederick didn¡¯t know how to retort. He tried his best to hold back his fury. After all, it was a live broadcast. If he said too much or used a sharp tone, it would harm his image. ¡°Fred, it doesn¡¯t matter. There are still two rooms left, one for me and Jenny, and the. other for you. It won¡¯t make any difference,¡± Yulissa stepped forward and said tofort Frederick. Yulissa just wanted to appear in front of the camera. Hearing what Yulissa said, Frederick calmed down. He didn¡¯t say anything but went to see his room. As soon as he saw it, Frederick felt that his blood was boiling. He cursed in his heart, ¡°What the hell is this room? ¡®It''s so small!¡¯ However, Thomas¡¯ room was opposite to Frederick¡¯s. The door alone was several times. better than Frederick¡¯s room door. When Yulissa saw her room, she disliked it. However, she had to say with a smile that it was nice. After everyone chose their rooms, it was almost noon. The director n Smith said, ¡°Since it is the first day you joining this show, the ingredients for this lunch will be provided by the production team. After today, you need to exchange ingredients with yourbor work.¡± Because there were two teams, there were two kitchens in the house they lived in. That was quite fair. Everything in the kitchens was all the same. Therefore, they didn¡¯t have to fight for anything. Even the ingredients were the same. Amelia and Thomas looked at the ingredients in silence. Amelia thought, ¡®I don¡¯t know how to cook. [e) 10:40 Fri, 23 Feb. Chapter 120 ¡°What should | do? ¡®I can¡¯t let Samantha starve. BE67%S ¡°There seems to be spaghetti.

Cassandra chuckled, and the way she smiled amazed Amelia. ¡°Okay, then I¡¯m waiting to taste your cooking!¡± Cassandra said sincerely. Now, Amelia was in a dilemma. She just wanted to be polite. What if Cassandra was disgusted by what Amelia cooked? But in Cassandra¡¯s eyes, Amelia was lovely. Cassandra was amused by Amelia¡¯s tone when she called Cassandra.. After all, Amelia was a diva with tens of millions of fans. At that moment, the bulletments read as follows: [Amelia is so cute. She only knows how to cook spaghetti, but she wants to show Cassandra her skills!] [Amelia must want to say that she was just kidding!] [She¡¯s so lovely! What should they do? There are so many ingredients. They can¡¯t just have spaghetti.] [Thomi can¡¯t cook!] [It seems that Samantha doesn¡¯t know how to cook, either. What¡¯s the use of being talented? They can¡¯t even cook anything.] However, Cassandra could see Amelia¡¯s embarrassed look. So Cassandra said, ¡°Let me do it. Check the ingredients. Is there anything you don¡¯t like?¡± Amelia''s eyes instantly lit up. She couldn''t help but exim in her heart, ¡®Wow! Samantha cooks!¡¯ Even Thomas¡¯ eyes lit up when he heard Cassandra''s words. ¡°| don¡¯t eat peanuts or mangoes. Anything else will do,¡± Thomas mentioned two things Chapter 120 about his allergies first. Amelia Cratched her head and said embarrassedly, ¡°I don¡¯t eat scallions. | can have anything else.¡± Cassandra nodded. n Then she looked at the ingredients on the chopping board in the kitchen. There was a chicken, some ribs, beef, and vegetables. Cassandra said, ¡°Well, let¡¯s have Barbecue Spare Ribs, beef stew, Chicken Mars, and a sd for lunch.¡± There was also a little shrimp, which could be added to Barbecue Spare Ribs. Hearing the dish names, Amelia felt hungry. ¡°Samantha, you can cook!¡± Amelia shouted excitedly. What a pleasant surprise! Cassandra replied, ¡°Yeah. Well, a little. | hope you''ll like it.¡± Then Cassandra started cooking in the kitchen. It would take her a long time to do so much work alone. So Amelia asked, ¡°Samantha, what can we do to help you?¡± Amelia felt a little embarrassed to sit and wait for food. Cassandra said, ¡°Please help me peel the carrots and potatoes, and sort out the parsley. As for the other vegetables, please wash them for me if you have anything that you want to have.¡± Cassandra thought for a moment and asked, ¡°Can you steel shrimp threads?¡± ¡°| can!¡± Thomas answered immediately. Thomas felt happy that he finally had something to do. Thomas loved shrimp and often had it. When he lived alone, he would steel the shrimp threads, boil water, and put the shrimp. into it to cook for a few minutes. It was easy.N?velDrama.Org is the owner. ¡°Well, please help me with these vegetables,¡± said Cassandra. She started to process the meat herself. Fri, 23 Feb Chapter 120 Cassandra began with the chicken first. Frederick''s team was also in a dilemma. The three of them were dumbfounded by the rich ingredients in the kitchen. However, they didn¡¯t know how to cook. Even Jenny didn''t. n Jenny was also the daughter of a rich family and had never cooked, so she could only. count on Yulissa and Frederick. ¡°Fred, | can only cook a few simple dishes. How about we make do at noon?¡± Yulissa said. She felt it was her chance. So she volunteered to cook. ¡°That¡¯s great, Lisa. I¡¯m looking forward to your cooking!¡± said Frederick. Yulissa nodded obediently. Miranda was watching the live stream with a projector at home. When it happened to be this scene, Benjamin went downstairs and saw it. ¡°Is Lisa out? Then why didn¡¯t she go home?¡¯ he wondered. ¡°Is Lisa is back?¡± Benjamin asked. SEND GIFT Chapter 121 Chapter 121 Miranda was startled by Benjamin''s words. She turned her head in panic and didn¡¯t answer Benjamin¡¯s question. However, Benjamin asked with concern, ¡°I¡¯m asking you! Is Lisa back? Why didn¡¯t shee home since she¡¯s back? Why did she participate in the show with Frederick? Has her trouble been settled?¡± Miranda didn¡¯t know how to answer Benjamin''s questions. ¡°Yes... Lisa is back. | wanted her to rx, so | asked Frederick to take her to the show,¡± Miranda finally said. Benjamin nodded,pletely unaware of the awkwardness in Miranda¡¯s tone. Then how did you get her out? Who helped you?¡± Benjamin asked and didn¡¯t realize the problem. During this period, Benjamin was upied with selecting thepany¡¯s location and discussing potential coborations with previous partners. He eagerly awaited the finalization of these arrangements in order to register thepany and initiate new business ventures. Therefore, he didn¡¯t pay much attention to Yulissa¡¯s matter these days. But he was happy that Yulissa was released. Benjamin pondered the type of connection Miranda had utilized to withstand the pressure from Lucas. He contemted the possibility of getting closer to that person. Miranda said, ¡°Well... It was a director of the Public Security Bureau. | gave him some money, and when Lisa was released, | gave him some thank-you gifts...¡± Miranda was a little nervous. After all, Benjamin didn¡¯t want to spend 2 billion dors to treat Ray¡¯s hand back then. If he knew that she spent 7 billion dors to save Yulissa, he would be furious. However, Benjamin was rich. Miranda thought even if he had some losses, he should still have more than 14 billion dors. As for the shares, though he integrated them before, Miranda didn¡¯t think there would be a big difference if she used the 5%. However, Miranda hadn''t intervened in thepany affairs recently. She didn¡¯t even know that Benjamin had sold his shares. The money she took was all the money of the family. Ill Fri, 23 Feb Chapter 121. Benjamin nodded. He thought Miranda should have given the money and thank- gifts to the person who helped Yulissa. After all, Yulissa had been released. ¡°How much did you pay?¡± Benjamin asked and thought, ¡®At most, she might have paid hundreds of millions of dors, which is not a big deal. *7 billion dors... Miranda replied. Benjamin was still nodding, but he suddenly froze.. ¡°How much?¡± Benjamin asked again. He jumped to his feet. He pointed at Yulissa on the screen and roared, ¡°How much did you spend?¡± Miranda was confused. She thought, ¡®What''s wrong with him?¡± Miranda said. ¡°7 billion dors. Honey, it was not just to save Lisa this time. The director said that the next time...¡± Before Miranda could finish her words, she was pped in the face. ¡°You bi tch! How dare you use so much money to save Yulissa? You''re crazy, aren¡¯t you? How could | marry such a fool like you?¡± Benjamin cursed. Benjamin used great force to p Miranda, and suddenly there was a red palm print on her cheek. ¡°How dare you hit me!¡± Miranda looked at Benjamin in disbelief. She never expected. that he would beat her for money. ¡°Isn''t it just 7 billion dors? We still have so much money. And it¡¯s only 5% of the shares. We have both money and shares. What¡¯s wrong. with spending a little on Lisa?¡± Miranda shouted. Miranda didn¡¯t regret it. Instead, she felt that Benjamin was too mean. ¡°Did you also give our shares to that man?¡± Benjamin asked, unable to believe his ears. He even suspected that he had misheard. ¡°Yeah... Miranda nodded cautiously, feeling that Benjamin was a little angry, but she didn¡¯t see why he was so angry. s Miranda thought, ¡®It¡¯s worth it no matter how much we have to pay as long as we can save our daughter! Fn, 23 Feb Chapter 121 ¡°Benjamin also loves Yulissa the most. Benjamin was stunned for a long time, feeling his blood pressure up. ¡°TIL kill you, bi tch!¡± Benjamin finally cursed. Then he began to punch and kick Miranda. ¡°Ouch! ¡°Stop it! ¡°Benjamin, you ba st ard! Stop it! ¡°It hurts... Miranda shouted. 67% Benjamin said, ¡°Miranda, how dare you give my money and shares to someone else without my permission? How precious do you think Yulissa is? Do you need to save her with everything of the Yates family?¡± The more Benjamin thought about it, the angrier he became. It was all his money that could help him rise again. They were hisst shares in Yates Group! ¡°You bit ch, go and get my money and shares back! If you can get them back, you don¡¯t have toe back again!¡± Benjamin said. The money and shares were all he had. He couldn''t give them all to someone else. Miranda said, ¡°Benjamin, | really thought too good of you. We have so much money. What¡¯s wrong with taking some to save Yulissa? Why would the Yates family be destroyed? It¡¯s not as serious as what you said!¡± Miranda had forgotten the pain in her body. Benjamin asked her to get the money back. How could Miranda get what she gave back? If Miranda did get the money and shares back, Yulissa would definitely be sentenced. How could Benjamin be so cruel? ¡°So much money? You''ve been living a wealthy life for too long. Do you think we still have much money? Don¡¯t you know that the Yates Group has been losing money?

The shareholders want me topensate. How can |pensate them now?¡± Benjamin couldn''t afford to pay for the money. He sold his shares topensate for the loss and got several billion dors. However, now he had lost everything. It had all been ruined by Miranda. Miranda couldn''t believe it. She kept shaking her head and could not ept the fact. Had she used all the money to save Yulissa? How was that possible? ¡°Then how about Cassandra¡¯s shares you mentioned before...¡± Miranda was still unwilling to believe the fact.

The money oney in the card had remained the same before. However, Miranda thought that the rest of the money was in other cards because they wouldn¡¯t deposit all the money in one card. How could this happen? What should Miranda do now? How could she get the money back from the director? f& Chapter 122 Chapter 122 Miranda didn¡¯t believe that she had given all the money of her family to someone else.

I¡¯m telling you, go find that man now and get my money back!¡± Benjamin warned. However, Benjamin didn¡¯t feel it enough. ¡°Take out all your bank cards!¡± Benjamin said. He thought, ¡°This b itch dares to use my card. Then she must have some money on her private card! ¡®Don¡¯t think | don¡¯t know that this stu pid woman has hidden a lot of private money! ¡°Now, she must give all her money to me!¡± Miranda broke down and cried. ¡°Who can | ask for it?

Whether you send Yulissa to the police or let her engage in prostitution, you must give my money back!¡± Benjamin has lost his mind. All he wanted now was his money. Miranda¡¯s eyes widened. She couldn''t believe that Benjamin had said those words. ¡°Benjamin, how could you say that? Lisa is also your daughter.

Benjamin shouted. Now that everything was ready. Benjamin could make aeback as long as he had his money. At this crucial moment. Miranda had given all his money to someone else. ¡°Honey, that¡¯s the director of the city government. We gave him so much money. We must have established a good rtionship with him. He will definitely give us more chances in the future! Miranda tried to persuade Benjamin, but he couldn''t listen to anything. Benjamin retorted. ¡°I couldn¡¯t care less about the director! | will never spend 7 billion dors and over a billion dors in shares to acquire that absurd connection. Are you out of your mind, or am |?¡± Benjamin was too stubborn to listen to anything Miranda said now. He was only thinking about his money now, Seeing that she couldn''t persuade Benjamin.

Samantha, they look delicious!¡± Amelia eximed. The cameraman, who was filming, focused his camera on the food prepared by Cassandra. It was true that the dishes smelled good and looked appealing. Everyone was looking forward to its taste. But it shouldn''t be bad. Cassandra chuckled and said, ¡°Enjoy it.¡± Thomas quickly helped thedies get their tableware. Amelia was waiting for Cassandra to sit down. ¡°Have a try,¡± Cassandra said enthusiastically. Cassandra felt that she got along well with Thomas and Amelia. At least, they were not so sophisticated and scheming. Most of those who engaged in the entertainment industry were hypocritical. However, Thomas and Amelia were still sincere and innocent. Amelia picked up a piece of beef and closed her eyes with satisfaction. ¡°It''s incredibly delicious! The saltiness is just perfect, and there¡¯s a special fragrance. The meat is so tender! Samantha, you are truly amazing!¡± praised Amelia. Amelia continued to enjoy the dishes. Thomas kept cating, too. The food was so delicious, which surprised them. They couldn¡¯t believe Cassandra was so good at cooking. The screen was constantly filled with bulletments.

However, they were having vegetables. The omelet soup was the only meat dish. However, the omelet soup looked a little dark. There were mashed potatoes, Celery and Blue Cheese Sd, and carrot sd. Neither Frederick nor Jenny had any appetite when they saw the dishes. However, Yulissa said enthusiastically, ¡°Fred, Jenny, have a try!¡± When Cassandra just came back, she used to cook for the family. Yulissa secretly watched Cassandra cook. Therefore, Yulissa remembered all the procedures. Frederick didn¡¯t want to disappoint Yulissa, so he tried the mashed potatoes int anticipation. He wanted to vomit after taking a bite. It was too salty and sour. Frederick frowned unconsciously and then swallowed it hard. ¡°It''s delicious. You are great!¡± Frederick said. Jenny didn¡¯t believe it. Sheined in her heart, ¡®If it is delicious, you should rx your frown.¡± Being praised by Frederick, Yulissa thought the food she cooked was delicious, so she picked up some mashed potatoes and carrot sd for Jenny with serving cutlery. ¡°Jenny, have a try,¡± said Yulissa. Jenny picked the mashed potatoes into her bowl. Fri, 23 Feb Chapter 122 The moment she tasted them. Jenny spat them out without hesitation. ¡°It''s sour and salty!¡± Jenny eximed. aware the After making that statement, Jenny immediately regretted it. She became they were on a live stream and understood that her words would invite criticism. [How could she say that? She didn¡¯t help with cooking and is so picky about the food!] [What if it¡¯s really awful? Do you want Jenny to tell lies like Frederick?] [Please take a look at Frederick''s frown! It shows that the food made by Yulissa is terrible!] [Why does Yulissa think her cooking is nice?] [rm a little sympathetic to Jenny. It¡¯s so hard!]N?velDrama.Org is the owner. [Yulissa is a talented girl. How could you say that?] [Hey, | didn¡¯t expect Yulissa to have a fan like you. It''s pathetic!] Ha Chapter 123 Chapter 123 After lunch, Frederick and Jenny were not full at all. They ate up the rice. Yulissa didn¡¯t look happy because she felt that what Jenny said indicated that she didn¡¯t respect Yulissa at all. Therefore, when the three people finished eating and gathered together, they didn¡¯t look good. They all ate nothing but rice. However, Cassandra¡¯s team was full and looked as if they were on vacation. Amelia said, ¡°Samantha, the Chicken Mars is so delicious. Can | still have it in the future? Amelia thought it was the best Chicken Mars she had ever tasted.. Cassandra replied, ¡°If there are enough ingredients in the future, | will make it for you.¡± Listening to Amelia¡¯s show-off, Frederick was furious. Frederick thought, This da mn girl! She didn¡¯t cook for me, but she actually cooked for the outsiders. ¡°Samantha, the beef stew is also great. | want to eat it again,¡± Thomas said. After spending several hours together, Thomas felt that Cassandra was very approachable. Therefore, he became more brave. Thomas didn¡¯t want to participate in the variety show at first, but his agent said that Samantha would also join it. Samantha was Thomas¡¯ idol. So he agreed. Thomas didn¡¯t expect that Samantha was not only good at writing songs but also. excellent at cooking. Therefore, Thomas admired Samantha more. ¡°| can cook a lot of dishes. Let¡¯s work harder to earn more ingredients!¡± Cassandra felt happy with them. Although Cassandra was the one who cooked, Thomas and Amelia helped with washing vegetables and dishes and cleaning up the kitchen. Cooperation was the key to team development. Fri, 23 FED Chapter 123 If there was only one person in the team who worked hard and the rest all waited for sess, the team would copse sooner or later. For example, when Frederick wanted Cassandra to join his team at the beginning, he just wanted her to cook for him and Yulissa. In the past, Cassandra would probably agree to Frederick¡¯s request. But now, she would rather feed her cooking to dogs than give Frederick another bite. Cassandra suddenly thought of something. Frederick still used the recipe she gave him. Since they had nothing to do with each other, Cassandra thought it was a waste to leave the recipe to Frederick. However, Cassandra was present at the filming site, unable to take action herself. She thought, ¡®Forget it. | should wait for the evening. Before they began shooting, they had handed in their phones, so Cassandra could only send a message to Jeremiah when she got her phone during night break to let him handle it.. At this time, n said, ¡°Next, the production team will no longer provide any ingredients. Of course, the seasoning is enough for you. However, for everything else, you will need to exert effort to acquire them.¡± n said that in the next few days, they would work to get food or help farmers work in exchange for their food. Every job they did must be qualified, and they should not make trouble for farmers. Yulissa walked forward and said with a smile, ¡°That''s not difficult for Samantha. After all, she has lived in the countryside for 18 years.¡± Yulissa just said it on purpose. In this industry, family background was important. Cassandra was just a girl who grew up in the countryside. Even if she was Samantha now, she couldn''t change the fact. Due to Cassandra¡¯s humble background, Yulissa believed she would never rise to a position of importance or superiority. Amelia replied sharply before Cassandra could speak, ¡°Is it humiliating to live in the countryside? Everyone¡¯s ancestors used to be farmers. What''s wrong with the countryside? The food you eat is grown by the people in the countryside. The flour you have is cultivated in the, countryside. The vegetables and meat you eat alle from the countryside. You rely on the work of farmers. | don¡¯t know where you get your sense of superiority, Ms. Yates!¡± [e) 10:40 Fri, 23 Febo Chapter 123 Amelia thought, ¡®Who the hell is this bit ch? How dare she insult Samantha? ¡®Til never tolerate it! ¡°She¡¯s nothing!¡± Yulissa was shocked.? 2024 N?v/el/Dram/a.Org. Her expression suddenly turned embarrassed. She didn¡¯t expect that Amelia would not show respect to her and directly rebuked her, which made her embarrassed. [Wonderful speech, Amelia! I¡¯m from the countryside. What¡¯s wrong? Is there a problem?] [I''m also from the countryside. My family grows rice. | am proud of it!] [Honey, you should be proud!] [Who invited Yulissa to this show? She is weird. Doesn¡¯t she know why Samantha has lived in the countryside for 18 years?] [Yulissa¡¯s a fakedy. She doesn¡¯t even know who her parents are. How dare she insult Samantha?] [Don¡¯t go too far. Yulissa is from the Yates family who has admitted the fact. Her status is higher than that of Samantha!] [Come on! You''re so ridiculous! How could Yulissa¡¯s status be higher than Samantha¡¯s? Are you daydreaming?] [Surely she is!] ¡°Amelia...¡± Yulissa wanted to say something. Yulissa directly interrupted, ¡°Besides, why did Samantha live in the countryside for 18 years? Shouldn¡¯t the Yates family reflect on it? Given the considerable influence of the Yates family, they should have diligently pursued locating their missing daughter instead of adopting another girl after Samantha¡¯s disappearance. Can such actions truly be regarded as acts of sce? Now that the genuine Ms. Yates has returned, what measures have the family taken? The conduct of the Yates family is certainly intriguing.¡± Amelia didn¡¯t give Yulissa a chance to speak at all. Amelia had wanted to say those words for a long time. Now she finally had a chance. Chapter 123 23 FED ¡°Amelia, don¡¯t get me involved...¡± Thomas protested in a low voice. Thomas was from the Yates family in Dricso, while Frederick¡¯s family could be considered an offshoot or coteral branch of the Yates family. ¡°Aslip of the tongue. Your Yates family is different from theirs. Don¡¯t misunderstand. me, Thomas,¡± Amelia exined. Amelia was well-known for her straightforwardness in the entertainment industry. Thomas used to dislike Amelia¡¯s character, but now he felt her cool. Thomas thought he might be out of his mind. ¡°Amelia, don¡¯t go too far!¡± Frederick scolded. If Amelia kept talking, Frederick would lose his temper. Amelia replied, ¡°Okay, then I''ll stop. But please discipline your sister, Frederick. We''re in the countryside now, so don¡¯t bring the old tricks from the city here. Don¡¯t show off in front of the farmers!¡± [Did Yulissa ever offend Amelia? Why did Amelia scold Yulissa for such a long time?] [I don¡¯t know, but | feel a little excited!) [Fake b itch. She should have been kicked out!] [I support Amelia! Love her!] [Great, you love Amelia, and | am with Samantha. She¡¯s so adorable!] [Look how cute she is while standing there!] Cassandra said, ¡°Amelia, don¡¯t waste time with them. Let¡¯s see what we can do first. We can exchange ingredients when we come back in the evening.¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t want to waste time with these people. It was only the first day and the game hadn''t started yet. ¡°Mr. Smith, if we want to exchange ingredients with you, do we need to harvest certain crops?¡± Cassandra asked n. ¡°Yeah,¡± n replied. ¡°What do you have?¡± Cassandra asked. n suggested, ¡°I think you can help the farmers to collect their mature crops first. Il Chapter 124 Chapter 124 Cassandra said to Thomas and Amelia, ¡°It is busy farming season now. The early-season rice has been ripe, and many vigers should have be to harvest rice. Let''s go and see if there is any need for help. We will just ask them for some ingredients then.¡± At this time, early rice and wheat were ripe. If they were not harvested in time, the ears of rice and wheat might fall off naturally, which would cause great losses to farmers. ¡°Okay!¡± Amelia replied happily. She believed whatever Cassandra said. Amelia¡¯s parents were once farmers, but they previously held the position ofndlords. Their family owned abundantnd in their hometown. When Amelia was a child, she often followed her parents in the fields. Therefore, harvesting crops was not difficult for Amelia. She even missed the feeling a little. However, Thomas scratched his head awkwardly and said embarrassedly, ¡°But | don¡¯t know how to do it. Will | make trouble for them?¡± Thomas really wanted to help, but he didn¡¯t know how to. He didn¡¯t know anything about harvesting crops. Thomas couldn¡¯t help but think he was the most useless one on the team. As aman, he was ashamed to let girls do all the work. Amelia said, ¡°There should be other work for you to help. Don¡¯t worry, | won¡¯t let your idle!¡± Amelia looked so adorable as she said so. The three of them walked along the vige road and watched the scenery here. Along the way, Amelia eximed that the countryside was wonderful with fresh air and no pollution. She wondered if they could see stars at night, Thomas echoed Amelia¡¯s words, expressing that while he had seen a lot of scenery, he had seldom encountered such natural splendor and vibrant living scenes. It was like a paradise. After a while, they saw two families harvesting early-season rice. Cassandra and Amelia stepped forward and asked, ¡°Sir, do you need any help? We can help you without payment. Just give us some vegetables when we finish the work.¡± [e) 10:40 Fri, 23 Feb. Chapter 124 Amelia exined to them gently that they were shooting a show. It was their task to help farmers, but they really wanted to help. When the work was done, if they had any vegetables at home, they could just give Amelia some. The farmers understood because the vige head had informed them early in the morning that there was a well-known TV station recording a variety show here. It should be these people. However, the farmer was still a little hesitant. The rice was the food of his family. It would be sold to make money for his family. If these people were unable toplete the work properly, it would impact their earnings. Cassandra continued, ¡°Sir, | grew up in the countryside. I''m familiar with crops. You can see how | do it first.¡± In order to dispel the doubts in the heart of the farmer, Cassandra took off her shoes and socks with a sickle, rolled up her trouser legs, and went down to the field. She picked up an ear of rice and skillfully used a sickle to harvest it. Her movement was smooth and precise. ¡°I can do it, tool, Amelia said. Amelia, knowing she had to work in the afternoon, opted for capri pants. This way, she could easily roll up her trouser legs and head out to the field. Then Amelia harvested the rice skillfully. Seeing this, the farmer was relieved and said kindly, ¡°You¡¯re great. I''ll appreciate your help.¡± Thomas was still standing alone on the edge of the field, feeling embarrassed. He didn¡¯t know what to do. He wanted to help, but it was rice. He couldn''t waste food. However, Thomas felt sorry for standing there and doing nothing. ¡°Sir, please give him a job. He doesn¡¯t know how to harvest rice and is afraid of ruining the crops. See if there is any manual work suitable for him.¡± Amelia saw Thomas¡± embarrassment, so she immediately asked the farmer. ¡°My wife is picking peppers in another field. If you don¡¯t mind, go there to help,¡± said the farmer. The farmer had a very good impression of the three of them. They were approachable 9K 67% Chapter 124 and eager to assist the farmer. The task of picking peppers did not demand specific skills, making it essible to anyone. [Wow, Thomas is so sensible!] [Yeah! He really doesn¡¯t want to make trouble for the farmers!] [This team is so harmonious. They are so polite to the farmer. | love watching them!] [Stop it! | came in from another channel. It¡¯s disgusting!] [I didn¡¯t anticipate Frederick to disy such ack ofmon sense. Despite Thomas holding a higher status, he knows more about life.]N?velDrama.Org: owner of this content. [Can''t you stop praising Thomas while disparaging Freddy? Freddy didn¡¯t do anything to hurt others, but he just stepped ona few seedlings. Is that a big deal?] [I went to watch another channel out of curiosity. | couldn¡¯t stand it!] At the same time, Frederick and his teammates were helping pick cucumbers in the field. They insisted on doing it. The hostess saw that they didn¡¯t seem to be good at working, so she didn¡¯t want them to help at first. However, they began to pick cucumbers by themselves. They were even eating while picking, and the majority of the cucumbers they had gathered were not fully picked, leaving a stem on them. Such cucumbers couldn''t be sold out or stored long. However, the vige head said the vigers had to cooperate with the production team to film the show. The hostess was helpless. Frederick and Yulissa even crushed the roots of several cucumbers, on which there were cucumber flowers and newly grown cucumbers. In the end, the hostess couldn''t stand it a it anymore. ¡°Distinguished guests, you don¡¯t have to pick them anymore. It¡¯s enough for today. I''ll go back and get some vegetables for you!¡± the hostess said. If they continued to pick cucumbers, the cucumbers would rot in the field. In the evening, Cassandra''s team finished their work. Thomas also came back from Chapter 124 picking peppers. The farmer and his family were overjoyed. Then the farmer caught two fish and took some fresh vegetables and fruits, as well as homemade pickles for Cassandra''s team. Cassandra, Amelia, and Thomas returned to their residence happily. When they got back, Frederick and his team had already started having dinner. The dishes were quite rich. There were washed cucumbers and steamed sweet potatoes. The dishes were indeed light. Seeing the fish in Thomas¡¯ hand, Frederick was instantly unhappy. ¡°Why do you have fish? | thought we weren¡¯t allowed to buy anything!¡± Frederick shouted. He subconsciously thought that they bought the fish with money. How could there be such good fish in this countryside? ¡°Mr. Yates, don¡¯t talk nonsense if you don¡¯t know the truth. Why do you think we bought the fish? We got it by working, Cassandra said. She felt quite happy when she saw Frederick¡¯s angry face. Cassandra didn¡¯t mind making him angrier. She continued, ¡°Our work has been recognized by the farmer. So he gave us a lot of vegetables and two fish. We really didn¡¯t know how to refuse him.¡± Cassandra then said to her teammates, ¡°Let¡¯s cook both fish tonight. One for Boiled Fish with Cocoyam and the other for Fish in Sour Soup.¡± Hearing this, Jenny swallowed unconsciously. She wanted to eat fish, too. Fish was her favorite. However, Jenny couldn''t have fish now. She could only have cucumbers and sweet potatoes. This was terrible! Jennyined in her heart, ¡®What a shi tty show! What stu pid teammates!¡± Frederick said, ¡°Cassandra, we are all one. You don¡¯t have to treat us like this. You have Il B Chapter 124 so many ingredients...¡± Frederick also wanted to have a better dinner. He barely ate anything at lunch, and the meager dinner left him feeling as though his gastrosis was about to rpse. SEND GIFT Chapter 125 Chapter 125 BRA:67% ¡°We don¡¯t need your help, Frederick. We can finish these two fish. It¡¯s not a big deal. And we can just prepare fewer dishes tonight,¡± said Cassandra. She thought, ¡°You want free meals? No chance! It will be great if our meal makes his mouth water! ¡®The recipe is gone. And the archive he sent to others is also gone! ¡°Therefore, even after the show, his gastrosis would only get worse and worse! I''m really looking forward to it!¡± Frederick was furious. He threw away his fork and said in a sharp voice, ¡°Cassandra, what do you mean?¡± n Smith, the director, stood by and watched them with great joy. He hoped that Cassandra and Frederick would fight. The more conflicts they had, the higher the ratings of the show would be! If they fought, there would be more people watching the show! Cassandra shrugged and said innocently, ¡®| meant nothing, Frederick. Excuse us. We''d better not disturb your dinner. After all, we haven''t cooked our dinner yet!¡± [Well, that''s so aggressive!] [They always fight when they meet. Why? I¡¯m a new fan, and | don¡¯t know anything!] [I suggest you check the tweets of Frederick and Yulissa. Then you''ll know the reason!] [Samantha loves to show off! After all, Frederick is her brother.

Please continue fighting! | love watching that!] [Are you crazy? It¡¯s just a show of daily life. There¡¯s no use fighting!] Cassandra and the other two worked together as usual.

They thought, Why do | have to suffer like this on the first day of the show?¡± ¡°Wow, it¡¯s so delicious!¡± Amelia¡¯s voice was clear and cheerful! It showed how happy she was when she ate! Frederick clenched his fists in anger, and Yulissa¡¯s face was a little gloomy. Even though she was good at maintaining her disguise, she felt that she was about to expose herself! ¡°Frederick, is Cassandra still mad at me? She knows that you have gastrosis and need a special recipe every day. Clearly, she... But she didn¡¯t care about you. | don¡¯t mind the way she treats me, but you are innocent!¡± Yulissa sobbed gently as if she were wronged. She continued, ¡°Frederick, I¡¯m sorry.

Frederick agreed with what Yulissa said, and he now felt that Cassandra showed him no respect and didn¡¯t consider him important! He rushed to the dining table angrily! As they were in the countryside, the dining table was a simple wooden table with four legs. Frederick walked up to the group of Cassandra¡¯s and gave her a fierce look. Suddenly, he flipped the table! And there was nothing left on the table.

This kind of thing was always disgraceful. If Yulissa didn¡¯t do anything wrong and would be let out of prison uprightly, Miranda would show it off. However, upon valid evidence, the Yates family couldn''t operate at all when it was not as powerful as before. Therefore, Miranda spent money on asking people to help her. The less people knew about this kind of thing, the better it would be. Miranda thought, ¡®But how did Cassandra know it? ¡°Why do you know it?¡± Anyway, Miranda wouldn''t believe that Cassandra could control the development of things.. She wouldn''t let the director of the Public Security Bureau listen to Cassandra, either. Cassandra said, ¡°Because your money is in my pocket.¡± What a fatal blow it was! Cassandra didn¡¯t say anything else but hung up the phone directly. This sentence was enough for Miranda to be anxious. A person couldn''t go too far or let others have something on him or her unless he or she faced an impasse. Before Miranda could react to Cassandra¡¯s words, she was brought back to reality by the ringing of the phone. Miranda said, ¡°Honey, I¡¯m telling you...¡± Benjamin said, ¡°Miranda, you bi tch! Who did you offend? Now someone came to check the house and said that you mortgaged it. You wasteful bit ch! Will you only be reconciled when you destroy the family?¡± Miranda was overwhelmed. She wondered, ¡®Mortgage the house?¡± She said, ¡°Wait... wait for me toe back... | didn¡¯t do it.¡± Benjamin was so angry that his blood pressure rose, and he fell on the sofa in a daze. ¡°Come back and exin it to me!¡± He shook his head and tried to sit up. Soon, Miranda rushed back and saw several people sitting on the sofa. [e) @K 67% Chapter 131 Miranda asked, ¡°Who are you?¡± Miranda was confused. She didn¡¯t sign any mortgage documents, so how could there be a house mortgage? ¡°What? Mrs. Yates, don¡¯t you know me?¡± Miranda was sure that she didn¡¯t know the person in front of her. However, the person was not angry. He took out a document and said, ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter if you don¡¯t know me, but you must know this document.¡± He opened the signature page of the document, and there were the words ¡°Miranda Yates. Benjamin almost fainted because of these words. There was no doubt that this font was Miranda''s. Benjamin thought, ¡®You bi tch! How dare you to sell my house?¡± He said, ¡°Exin to me clearly why you mortgaged this house.¡± This house was theirst haven. If he lost it, he really didn¡¯t know where to go. Miranda had no idea about it. She really did nothing about it. She didn¡¯t know why there was her signature. Even if she went through handwriting verification, the result would be that it was hers. However, Miranda didn¡¯t sign the mortgage agreement for the house and she didn¡¯t even receive any money. Miranda suddenly thought of something. Before Yulissa joined the show, she asked Miranda to sign a supplementary agreement for bail. At that time, Miranda signed it even without looking at it. Miranda thought, ¡®Did it happen at that time? ¡®No, it¡¯s impossible. How could Lisa do that? She wouldn¡¯t ¡°There must be some misunderstanding¡± ¡°If you don¡¯t move out, then buy the house back. Even if this matter goes to court, we are justified.¡± 67 Chiques The other party took a tough stance. For Benjamin, the other party was going to let them die. ¡°Sir, this house is mine. It has nothing to do with this woman. You should ask her for money rather than me. The house is mine, and | haven''t mortgaged it to anyone.¡± Benjamin hurriedly disassociated himself from this matter. He didn¡¯t want any more. idents. Miranda looked at him in disbelief. This was the man she had married for nearly 30 years, but she couldn¡¯t warm his heart. When it came to money, he seemed to see it as his life. After all these years, he still couldn¡¯t change his poor and pedantic appearance. How could he be so anxious to get rid of her? Well, this was what the years of a couple were like Husband and wife should have supported each other, but when a great cmity was at hand, they were unwilling to share woe. Miranda said, ¡°Benjamin, how can you say that? | gave birth to six sons and one daughter for you. How could you treat me like this? Didn¡¯t | contribute to the Yates family? This house is a marital asset, so what if | sell it?¡± Benjamin had heard this many times. He said. Then let¡¯s divorce. | don¡¯t want to see you bit ch ruining everything of me. I¡¯m telling you, no matter what you mortgaged this house for, you must pay me back.¡± He won''t spend another penny for Miranda. Fortunately, he took Miranda¡¯s card. For so many years, Miranda had hidden her money, and Benjamin turned a blind cyc to it. When he went to check her ount in the morning, he didn¡¯t expect that there were nearly 200 million dors stored in the bank card. Although he couldn''t do anything big with this money, there was still hope for a middle-level start. Therefore, he wouldn''t allow anyone else to use the money. Miranda hated Benjamin who was ungrateful so much. ¡°Benjamin, you bas tar d!¡± Miranda thought, ¡®How could he say that? Chapers 133 Why did Lisa frame me?¡± The person on the sofa said, ¡°We''re not here to listen to the quarrel between you. Now, either hand over the property ownership certificate or pay 200 million dors.¡± Hearing this, Benjamin thought. What? That¡¯s too much. He held back the difort of dizziness and kicked Miranda to the ground. He said, ¡°You b itch, did you keep a lover behind my back? Otherwise, why would you want so much money?¡± After saying this, Benjamin stepped back continuously.N?velDrama.Org is the owner. There were only the two of them at home, and no one could help them. The person who wanted the house had a bad feeling, so he left before saying ruthlessly, ¡°If you still can¡¯t decide whether to pay the money or the house in three days, we will meet in court.¡± Benjamin¡¯s dizziness got worse. He fell to the ground with a loud sound. Miranda shouted, ¡°Honey, Benjamin! What¡¯s wrong with you?¡± Miranda stood up in a panic, but Benjamin was already unconscious. ¡°Robert, Robert, Robert! Miranda shouted hysterically. After two or three minutes, Robert came in through another door. ¡°Mrs. Yates, what''s the matter?¡± After saying this, Robert saw that Benjamin passed out. He said, ¡°What''s wrong with Mr. Yates?¡± Miranda said, ¡®Call the ambnce!¡± Miranda cried anxiously. Her children weren¡¯t around, and she was now at a loss. Miranda got into the ambnce and began to call Leonardo, who hurriedly drove to the hospital. When Cassandra got the news, she was a little surprised. She wondered what could make Benjamin faint in anger. How could such a thing happen without her? She hacked into the Yates residence¡¯s surveince system. B SEND GIF 3045 23 Feb Chapes D She thought. Mortgage Miranda mortgaged the house? She is really going to bring about her own destruction. Cassandra asked Jeremiah curiously, ¡°Did you make this?¡± Jeremiah said. ¡°No, | haven''t done it yet.¡± Cassandra wondered who was so kind-hearted to help them clean up the waste. The waste should be thrown into the garbage dump. It was the disrespect for life to let it live a peaceful life. Cassandra began to investigate by herself. The result was that Yannick did it. Cassandra thought. Mr. Zelinski did it?¡± Chapter 132 COMMENT Chapter 132 With doubts in mind, Cassandra knocked on the next door. It was Yannick who opened the door. He was a little surprised. He wondered why Cassandra came to Keh. Yannick greeted, ¡°Ms. Yates.¡± Cassandra nodded and asked, ¡°Is your Mr. Zelinski here?¡± Yannick wondered, ¡®What? My... Mr. Zelinski? No, no, no. He will be yours. No. He is not mine, either. He said, ¡°Mr. Zelinski is inside. Ms. Yates, pleasee in.¡± Yannick immediately weed Cassandra in. The most important thing was to let her.e in. Keh flew back with Cassandra today, and he rushed into thepany as soon as he got off the ne. He had gone home just now. ¡°Cassie, why are you here?¡± Keh had just changed into casual clothes, showing another temperament. Keh in military uniform was a soldier who guarded the safety of a ce and gave people a sense of security. In suits, Keh was the soul of Drieso¡¯s business circle and also the spokesman for cruelty and indifference, presenting an unapproachable sense. Now, Keh was wearing home clothes. Cassandra didn¡¯t know whether it was an illusion or not. There was a hint of brightness and some gloom in his temperament, like a mncholy piano prince. Cassandra didn¡¯t know which one was the real Keh. Cassandra raised her eyebrows. This time, she was sure that Keh called her Cassie.... She wondered, ¡®Why did he call me so intimately? ¡®But why do I not feel disgusted at all? Is it because he avenged me in his previous life?¡¯ ¡°It seems that you just came back, isn¡¯t it?¡± Cassandra asked gently. ¡°Yeah, | just finished my work. What¡¯s the matter, Cassie?¡± Cassandra felt a little ufortable when she heard the word ¡°Cassie¡±. Chapter 132 She said, ¡°Well... Mr. Zelinski, | think the address ¡®Cassie¡¯ is too intimate. Maybe you should change into another one.¡± She still felt a little ufortable. In this life, she could risk her life to repay Keh. But such an intimate address was too upsetting. ording to their current rtionship, they could only be calledrades-in-arms at present. She thought, ¡°Why do | feel stifled? ¡®Forget it. | must stop thinking too much.¡± ¡°Does my address to you bother you?¡± Keh looked calm, but he was shocked in his heart. He couldn''t help but feel disappointed. Cassandra didn¡¯t want him to call her Cassie. Cassandra said, ¡°No. | just feel a little ufortable.¡± She could ept that Lucas and Marcus called her Cassie because they were close to her. Lucas was the best person to her except Blossom. She could also ept that Jeremiah, Cyrus, and Timothy called her ine or Cassic. Perhaps, no one who was not so intimate with her had ever called her like this. So she felt a little ufortable. However, she was not averse to it. Keh said, ¡°Then what should | address you? | can¡¯t keep calling you Ms. Yates, can 1?¡± He was relieved to know Cassandra was not disgusted about his address of ¡°Cassie¡± to her. She just felt ufortable. Keh secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Although he was a little disappointed, it was a surprise for him to know by ident that Cassandra didn¡¯t dislike him. ¡°Jeremiah calls me ine and Cassie. You can call me Cass or ine.¡±Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org. Cassandra said themon addresses to her and thought Keh could call her by any one. ml Chapter 132 However, she seemed to forget that no one had ever called her Cass. Keh thought to himself, Jeremiah calls her ine and Cassie? | must use a different one. ¡°Are there many people who address you Cass?¡± He didn¡¯t recall anyone calling her like that. At least Lucas, Sylvia, and Jeremiah never called her like that in front of him. Cassandra was stunned as if she didn¡¯t understand why Keh asked this question. She said, ¡°Probably... no. She wasn¡¯t sure. Keh said, ¡°From now on, I¡¯ll call you Cass.¡± Keh¡¯s mood suddenly turned from gloomy to happy, No one had ever addressed Cassandra by ¡°Cass, so he would from now on. Cassandra didn¡¯t seem to understand why Keh was in a better mood. She thought, ¡®Wasn¡¯t he a little depressed just now? Now it is obvious that his depression has disappeared.¡± Cassandra said, ¡°Mr. Zelinski, | have something to ask you...¡± Keh said, ¡°Cass, | have changed my address to you. Shouldn''t you change your address to me?¡± The two words ¡°Mr. Zelinski¡± sounded not just weird. It was hard for Keh to ept when Cassandra called him in this way. It was so aloof. Cassandra asked, ¡°Doesn''t everyone call you Mr. Zelinski?¡± Cassandra thought there was nothing wrong with that address. Keh said, ¡°That''s what a stranger addresses me. You and | have experienced chasing and killing and done many tasks, so we are not strangers anymore.¡± Cassandra nodded in a daze and then shook her head. She thought, ¡®We don¡¯t seem like strangers. ¡®After all, | invited him to dinner and received flowers from him for graduation. ¡°Well, don¡¯t you think it¡¯s aloof when you address me by Mr. Zelinski?¡± Keh couldn''t. 10:43 Fri 23 Feb Chapter 132 help but want to ask Cassandra to change her address to him, but he was afraid that she would think that he was frivolous if he corrected her rashly. Nheless, given that Cassandra was very sober and intelligent when dealing with the Yates family, it seemed that she was easy to be confused in front of people she knew well. Cassandra had the same dorky and adorable expression when Lucas wanted to ept her as their goddaughter at the charity g. ¡°Then what should | address you?¡± Cassandra asked subconsciously. Keh replied, ¡°Keh and Ken are both okay.¡± Cassandra frowned. She felt it was a little awkward to address him in these ways... Cassandra asked, ¡°How about Kenne?¡± She thought, ¡°Ken¡± sounds like the way his girlfriend addresses him. Maybe ¡°Kenne¡± is better. ¡®Kayden seems to call him Ken. Mr. Zelinski is 27 years old, much older than me... ¡°Or Uncle Keh?¡± asked Cassandra.. She kept thinking, That¡¯s what Lucas asked me to call him.¡± Keh was speechless. He thought, ¡®What? Uncle Keh?¡± He was immersed in the name of Kenne, and within five seconds, he became her Uncle Keh. Keh said, ¡°Kenne is better. I¡¯m not that old to be called ¡®Uncle Keh.¡± Cassandra nodded in agreement, Now, no one was happier than Keh. For him, the address ¡®Kenne¡¯¡± was an unexpected pleasure. ¡°So, why did youe to me, Cas s?¡± Then Keh came back to the point. Cassandra was annoyed secretly. She came there to talk about an important matter, but why did she suddenly go astray? They even talked about their addresses to each other for so long. Cassandra asked, ¡°Did you find someone to deal with the Yates family?¡± 10 43 Fri, 23 Feb D Chapter 139 n The result of her investigation must be right, but she still wanted to ask this question to confirm what she was thinking. Keh replied, ¡°Yes,¡± Cassandra asked, ¡°Why?¡± Keh said, ¡°Of course, | did that for you. The Yates family doesn¡¯t deserve your kindness.¡± Although Cassandra had her own smart way of dealing with the Yates family, for Keh, the speed was too slow, and their retribution was not enough. Perhaps, Cassandra wanted the Yates family to lose everything little by little, so she would punish them one by one slowly. However, they had brought trouble to Cassandra¡¯s life. Keh couldn''t just sit back and do nothing. Cassandra asked. Then, did you find someone to lie to Miranda and let her mortgage the Yates family¡¯s house?¡± Keh didn¡¯t know because Yannick had never reported it to him. Keh shouted, ¡°Yannick!¡± ¡°Yes, Mr. Zelinski.¡± Yannick rushed to Keh. Keh said, ¡°Answer this question... Yannick had heard Cassandra''s question just now. He said, ¡°Ms. Yates, | came up with this after receiving the order from Mr. Zelinski and asked someone to do it.¡± f& Chapter 133 Chapter 133 Keh really asked someone to do it. or me?¡± Cassandra asked in disbelief. ¡°For That was because, in her world, no one would treat her well except those who had known her since childhood. This was what she couldn¡¯t figure out. In her previous life, she was curious about the mysterious ¡°Mr. Zelinski¡±. However, Yulissa had been telling her that she didn¡¯t deserve to know Keh since she came from the countryside. Yulissa said Keh was cruel and murderous. At that time, Cassandra almost always listened to her and obeyed her. For this reason, any mentioning of Keh made Cassandra terrified. So she didn¡¯t dare to see him at all. Nevertheless, it was this terrifying man who killed everyone in the Yates family after her death just to avenge her. Cassandra asked him if they had known each other, but he refused to tell her. Now he attacked the inconspicuous Yates family for her. Although this confused feeling was pleasant, it was also frustrating. ¡°Cass, you''re a good girl. The Yates family didn¡¯t cherish you. They will regret it.¡± In this way, it is a disguised form to admit that Keh did so for Cassandra. Cassandra asked, ¡°Mr. Zelinski... Kenne, why did you do so much for me?¡± She couldn''t figure out why someone who had only known her for less than two months would treat her so well. Keh smiled gently and said, ¡°You called me Kenne. Shouldn''t | be nice to you?¡± Cassandra was speechless. She thought, ¡®As | could remember, the address ¡°Kenne¡± was confirmed five minutes ago.¡± Keh said, ¡°Cass, | know you have doubts in your heart, but it is not the right time to tell you. When the time is right, | will tell you everything. Now all you have to do is believe that | will never hurt you.¡± Mm 10:43 Fri, 23 Feb uu. Chapter 133 He said in his heart, ¡®Cass, wait for me. ¡°When | handle all the trouble around me, | will let you know who | am. TIl tell you in person that I¡¯m the big boy you took back. He couldn''t do it now. The Zelinski family was targeting him, and there were other dangers around him. At this time, anyone rted to Keh would be in danger.. Keh also wanted to be recognized by Cassandra immediately. He came back just because he wanted to stand by her side. However, there were many dangers around him. Even if he knew that Cassandra had extraordinary skills, he didn¡¯t want her to get into trouble like himself. It was against his original intention. 67% Cassandra frowned without too much emotion on her face, but she was a little dissatisfied with such words. She said, ¡°I don¡¯t want to be bothered by this anymore. You just need to tell me, did we know each other?¡± She thought. It isn¡¯t demanding, is it?! At this time, Keh nodded honestly and said, ¡°Yes.¡± Cassandra understood and then nodded to show that she had understood it. Sure enough, people like her didn¡¯t have heart-to-heart friends at first sight. Keh helped her because he knew her before. Although it was not clear now, at least Cassandra knew that there was no kindness for no reason. Especially for people like Keh, how could they show kindness to strangers? That was impossible... Cassandra said, ¡°Okay, | see. Thank you for helping me.¡± She didn¡¯t say that she would solve this matter by herself or avenge herself. She didn¡¯t know why, but she just felt that it would hurt Keh. She did not want to make him sad. Cassandra felt that she had been there for a long time, so she chatted with Keh for a few more minutes and went back to her house. What she didn¡¯t know was that Benjamin had stayed in the emergency room after being? 2024 N?v/el/Dram/a.Org. 10 43 Fri, 23 Feb uu Chapter 137 pushed into the hospital. Given that Raymond missed the best treatment time, Miranda had been waiting for her sons outside since Benjamin was pushed into the emergency room to be treated. When Jasper came in a hurry, he was still wearing casual clothes. ¡°Mom, what''s going on?¡± Jasper was worried. He thought, ¡°Wasn''t Dad fine when | went. out in the morning? Why did he faint at night?¡± Miranda said, ¡°Jace, why aren''t you wearing work clothes? Your father suddenly passed out. Go and have a look.¡± Miranda didn¡¯t think too much about why Jasper came there in casual clothes at this time. Jasper looked a little embarrassed. He didn¡¯t answer Miranda but looked at the nurse beside him. He asked. ¡°Who is treating my father in there?¡± The nurse said, ¡°It''s Dr. Martinez.¡± Jasper felt a little relieved. Amos Martinez was an authoritative doctor for first aid. Het came out after Jasper was reassured. ¡°Dr. Martinez, how is my father?¡± Jasper stepped forward and asked in a hurry. Amos said, ¡°Dr. Yates, | think we may need to work with the neurology department to find out his specific situation. If I''m right, your father has a cerebral infarction.¡± Jasper was shocked and widened his eyes. He thought, ¡®How could?¡¯ He asked, ¡°How could this be?¡± Amos said, ¡°He must have been irritated continuously. He might haven''t paid attention to it at first. Plus he was irritated today, he must have put up with it for a while. So he became like this after being sent here. | will ask Dr. Langley of the neurology department to have a consultation together.¡± But Amos didn¡¯t know if Gilbert Langley was off work at this time. Miranda couldn¡¯t ept such a stimtion and passed out, too. Jasper thought, ¡°What the hell?¡± When Leonardo arrived, he saw Jasper hurrying to help Miranda and calling for a doctor. Leonardo asked, ¡°Jace, what¡¯s wrong with Mom? How¡¯s Dad?¡± 10.44 Fri, 23 Feb ¡ª Chapter 133 ¡°Leo, call the doctor. Mom fainted after being shocked. Dad... Dr. Martinez has gone to find Dr. Langley of the neurology department.¡± Jasper seemed to see the backbone at once. As long as Leonardo was there, he would help Jasper. The doctor quickly sent Miranda for treatment. Jasper and Leonardo were guarding outside. Leonardo couldn''t help asking, ¡°What happened? Why did Dad faint? Now it¡¯s even said that he might have a cerebral infarction.¡± Jasper couldn''t exin it clearly. ¡°I don¡¯t know. When | went out in the morning, Dad was the one who sent Dad was fine, and Mom didn¡¯te home these days. But out in the morning, Dad to the hospital, so only she knows what happened at home.¡± Jasper thought. However, Mom is being treated. ¡°Why is this family so messy now?¡± Leonardo said, ¡°Then let''s wait for Mom to wake up.¡± Leonardo sighed and rubbed his eyebrows. He couldn''t hold on because of the exhaustion. He thought, ¡°What a mess of the family!¡± Leonardo said, ¡°Call Matt and ask him toe back.¡± Matthew had been away for almost two months and didn¡¯t call his family. It was said that he followed his actors to explore the wilderness. It often had a bad reception there. Therefore, he hadn''t called the family recently. After all the things that had happened at home, he had toe back. After Yulissa was sent back this morning, the police contacted Leonardo. To be honest, he didn¡¯t want to care about it anymore. He couldn''t handle it. He didn¡¯t know where Cassandra had gone, and the court session originally scheduled after the SAT was postponed. The court session would be the next day. Leonardo now regretted kidnapping Cassandra. His parents were even like this... Chapter 134 Chapter 134 It was 9 a.m. the next morning in front of the courthouse. This time, for Yulissa, it was just a joint trial of several cases, allmitted by her and against the same person. Leonardo was an aplice and sat in the dock together with her. Cassandra sat in the intiff''s seat. As soon as Hayden announced that the court was in ssion, Leonardo got up, admitted what he had done, and epted the punishment. However, Leonardo¡¯sst good impression of Yulissa had vanished with the fact that Miranda spent all the money to get her out of jail. Therefore, Leonardo passed all the buck to Yulissa. Yulissa widened her eyes and thought, ¡®Why did Leonardo shift the me onto me? Shouldn''t he take these things on himself? ¡®Mom spent money to save me. Didn''t Leonardo know that? ¡°Why? ¡°Since he is unfair, don¡¯t me me for being unjust. ¡°Your Honor, | didn¡¯t do it. | never said that ¡°Yulissa hurriedly defended herself, but Hayden had confirmed that she was the mastermind in the evidence provided by Leonardo. Yulissa was a little devastated. She wondered, ¡®Why isn¡¯t Mom here? Where is she? Why hasn¡¯t shee to save me? ¡°Has she abandoned me, too?¡± Hayden asked the intiff if she admitted the evidence provided by the defendant. Jonathan was about to argue, but Cassandra grabbed him and said lightly, ¡°Mr. Hayden, since the evidence is valid, | admit it.¡± For Cassandra, there was nothing to argue about. By doing so, Leonardo was ready to sacrifice Yulissa.. The Yates family spent so much money. If Cassandra didn¡¯t make some contributions, it seemed that she would feel sorry for the Yates family. Cassandra thought, ¡®Does he think that as long as he med Yulissa, he could rest easy Chapter 134 outside? ¡°How could he deal with the mess of the Yates family on his own? The life in prison for him is better. Since he wanted to stay outside, then I''ll let him have it. The next stage was the trial of Yulissa¡¯s murder by buying. Regardless of the irrefutable evidence, Yulissa refused to admit it. She kept refusing. However, to her surprise. Tina, Gavin''s wife provided new evidence. Tina forgot that she had installed an invisible camera at the door to protect her child. She just provided the recording, forgetting about the surveince video. The surveince video could prove that Yulissa hade to Gavin at that time, and it caught the scene of hering and going. Combined with the time of the recording, it was basically a perfect match. ¡°No! It''s not true.¡± Yulissa was so frightened that she kept sweating and looked even more flustered. ¡°Silence!¡± Hayden shouted. Now the evidence was basically conclusive, and Yulissa couldn¡¯t avoid it. At today¡¯s court session, only Leonardo from the Yates family came, so Yulissa had no supporters at all. She still refused to admit it. This made it a little difficult for Hayden. At this time, Cassandra said, ¡°Yulissa, do you know why only Leonardo showed up today? Because your dear parents, under your operation, were in the hospital. One was hospitalized for cerebral infarction, and the other was fainting for being stimted. Jasper was suspended by the hospital because of you. At present, he can only stay with your parents in the hospital. Frederick is facing the risk of termination due to the live streaming two days ago and has to pay a huge amount of liquidated damages. They have no time to respond to you. ¡°Yohannes and Raymond don¡¯t know today¡¯s court session. They haven''t even been notified that their parents are in the hospital yet. The glorious agent Matthew should be ml isgR.67% Chapter 131 on his way here, but he won''te to save you in time. ¡°Every one of them is forced to lose their jobs or give up their dreams due to you. Do you feel particrly happy?¡± Cassandra¡¯s words made Leonardo a little ashamed. These things were indeed caused by Yulissa, and Cassandra took revenge on them. However, he had no proof. He only knew that Cassandra had be someone they couldn¡¯t reach. Yulissa¡¯s hands trembled, and her eyes gradually turned scarlet. She seemed to be restraining something. Yulissa said, ¡°Shut up! It¡¯s all because of you. Why did youe back? You lived in the countryside for 18 years, and why do you show up here? | am the daughter of the Yates family. How can youpete with me? ¡°My parents and brothers love me. Are you jealous? However, they won''t believe you no matter how much you say. They love me the most, so what if they sacrifice for me?¡± Yulissa suddenly shook her head and added, ¡°No, it¡¯s all your fault. You are the culprit. When Gavin hit you, you should have died under his car. Why are your still alive?¡± Cassandra just borated on the current situation of the Yates family, but Yulissa seemed to be stimted. Yulissa made a confession between the lines. Cassandra said, ¡°Your Honor, the defendant has admitted it by herst words.¡± This was Cassandra¡¯s ultimate goal. Hayden announced, ¡°Given Yulissa¡¯s various crimes, the Court decides to the judgment another day.¡± pronounce He didn¡¯t know how long Yulissa would be sentenced. He thought he had better discuss it with other judges. Cassandra said, ¡°Your Honor, as for Gavin''s fault, | have written a letter of settlement here. But ording to thew, no one can be exempted. Therefore, | hope you can give him leniency for the sake of my letter of settlement and the fact that his family needs him as their onlybor force to save the child.¡± When Cyrus and Jeremiah investigated Gavin, they visited his home. Although Hugo had paid for the operation and treatment of Gavin''s child, it would take a long time for the child to take medicine in the future. Chapter 134 Tina herself couldn''t afford this alone. Therefore, Cassandra hoped that Hayden could sentence Gavin to fewer years in prison, giving the child who wanted to live a chance to live. Hearing Cassandra¡¯s words, Yulissaughed mockingly. ¡°Cassandra, you''re so funny. You want to kill me and give Gavin a lenient treatment at the same time. You are so double- standard. You can forgive the person who hit you. Why can¡¯t you forgive me?¡±? 2024 N?v/el/Dram/a.Org. Yulissa thought, ¡°They''re all bad guys! ¡°Where¡¯s Mom? Why hasn''t she dealt with Cassandra?¡± Cassandra said, ¡°I forgive him because he did it for a good reason. | understand him for being a father. As for you, do you think you deserve it?¡± Jeremiah had investigated everything about Gavin from his birth to work, marriage, and the birth of his child. He hadn''t done any bad deeds, but his child¡¯s illness was an ident. If he hadn¡¯t been desperate, he wouldn¡¯t have gone this way. A lenient punishment didn¡¯t mean exemption. He should be punished because he did something wrong. This was an eternal truth. Hayden didn¡¯t give them another chance to quarrel and directly announced the adjournment. The judgment on Yulissa would be pronounced another day. Walking out of the courthouse, Jonathan chuckled, ¡°Cassic, where are you going?¡± ¡°To do my business.¡± Cassandra nced at Jonathan and said, ¡°I don¡¯t think you are of much use. | found all the evidence, and you didn¡¯t say anything today.¡± Jonathan felt speechless. He thought, ¡®Was there any chance for me to talk? I''m just a tool you use to scare people. Chapter 135 Chapter 135 Seeing that Cassandra was about to leave, Leonardo hurriedly caught up with her and said, ¡°Cassie, wait a minute. | have something to tell you!¡± Jonathan nodded to Cassandra and left. Cassandra nced at Leonardo contemptuously and said, ¡°Mr. Yates, | don¡¯t think there is anything for us to talk about.¡± She thought, ¡®If possible, | don¡¯t want to see you guys ever again after you get what deserve!¡¯ Jonathan thought, ¡®No. There is a lot that we can talk about! ¡®| want to know why she knows everything! ¡®| want to know what she is up to! ¡®| want to know if she is behind all these. Jonathan said, ¡°Cassie.¡± Cassandra directly interrupted Leonardo. ¡°I¡¯ve told you you can¡¯t call me Cassie!¡± Jonathan said, ¡°Cassandra, even Yohannes and Ray don¡¯t know that they are hospitalized. How did you know? What else do you know?¡±? 2024 N?v/el/Dram/a.Org. you Leonardo thought that he must have been crazy to ask Cassandra this kind of question. His father was still in the ICU, waiting to go through all kinds of tests and his mother was still unconscious. He didn¡¯t know what to do at all. The surveince cameras in the Yates residence were never turned on again after Cassandra hacked them. Miranda insisted it was to protect Yulissa¡¯s privacy. Therefore, he couldn''t find out the truth. The dazzling sunlight pricked Cassandra¡¯s eyes. She rubbed her eyes and said casually, ¡°Does it make a difference?¡± Leonardo said, ¡°If you know anything, please tell me!¡± Leonardo noticed the harsh sunshine so he stood in front of Cassandra thoughifully to block the sun. [e) Chapter 133 However, Cassandra didn¡¯t appreciate it at all. She leaned away from him and took a step downward! She said, ¡°Since you want to know it so desperately, I''ll tell you. When Yulissa just came out, she tricked your dear mother into signing a supplementary bail bond, which was actually a mortgage agreement. The Yates residence was mortgaged. Yesterday, the debt collector came...¡± Cassandra deliberately paused and then added, ¡°You can imagine the rest!¡± Then Cassandra left, leaving Leonardo alone, who was stunned, dazzled by the strong sunlight. He thought, The Yates residence was mortgaged? ¡°This is impossible! It''s not the truth! How could Mom do that? ¡®But there hadn¡¯t been a very serious and terrible matter, how could Dad have had a stroke and still stayed unconscious? ¡°How heartless! ¡°Yulissa! We''re enemies now! In the hospital, Frederick was informed of this matter so he rushed to the hospital. He saw Jasper taking care of his mother. There was no one else guarding the ICU. Frederick asked, ¡°Jace, what the hell is going on?¡± He couldn''t figure out why his family suddenly became broken! Jace said, ¡°Fred, | don¡¯t know either. Don¡¯t ask me!¡± Jasper really didn¡¯t know anything. Every day when he came back home, he didn¡¯t even see anyone. Robert just reported everything very briefly to him. He had to go to work in the morning so he was not at home. Besides, he had been suspended so he didn¡¯t have anything to do. He knew nothing about his parents. If he had known that people would ask him, he could have moved out like Leonardo. Frederick felt speechless. He was simmering with anger but didn¡¯t know how to vent his Ill [e) 1044 Fri, 23 Feb Chapter 135 anger. Leonardo came back and saw them. ¡°What are you arguing about?¡± He sounded extremely impatient. Jasper was very worried. ¡°Leo, how¡¯s it going?¡± He wondered when Yulissa woulde back. Leonardo said, ¡°Not good. Yulissa was awaiting the judgment of the court. The court is expected to pass a sentenceter. She has admitted everything.¡± Leonardo nced at his mother, who was lying on the hospital bed with no sign of waking up, and sneered in his mind. ¡°This is the result of saving someone risking everything you have. ¡®| not only failed to save the person but also lost my money. Is this what karma is? ¡®Karma is indeed a bit ch!¡± Neither Jasper nor Frederick could ept this. Frederick loved Yulissa very much and didn¡¯t believe that she was the one who did those things. He said, ¡°I don¡¯t believe it. | don¡¯t believe that Lisa is so vicious. Did someone torture or threaten her when she was detained? Why don¡¯t you find out the truth?¡± Leonardo was annoyed that Frederick was so hysterical. He said, ¡®Frederick, enough. No one forced her. Cassandra told the truth so she couldn''t stand it anymore and admitted everything. That''s all! The judge found her guilty and she will receive a sentence in a few days. Do you understand it now?¡± Frederick looked disappointed and angry. ¡°If you don¡¯t want to save Lisa, | will. When Mom and Dad wake up, I''ll tell them everything. You better figure out how to exin it to them!¡± Leonardo sneered, ¡°Exin? What do | need to exin? Do you think Yulissa is not responsible for what happened to Dad? Mom gave all the money and shares of thepany to the director to save her. Dad couldn¡¯t handle it! ¡°Do you know why Dad couldn¡¯t hang in anymore and broke down? When Yulissa was out, she tricked Mom into signing a supplementary agreement, which secretly contained a mortgage agreement. The Yates residence, our home, was mortgaged. Are you satisfied now? This is the person you tried your best to help. The Yates family is miserable because of her!¡± Frederick was shocked that the culprit was not Cassandra but Yulissa! ml 0 10 44 Fri, 23 Feb Chapter 135 Frederick stepped back in surprise until he bumped into Miranda¡¯s bed. He thought, ¡®It¡¯s not true. How could it cost so much money to save Lisa?¡± IIE= Jasper didn¡¯t believe it either. He wanted to refute but Leonardo did not give them a chance to speak at all. Leonardo continued, ¡°Frederick, the production team wants to terminate the contract with you because the live broadcast two days ago. Just terminate it. Yourpany is going to abandon you.¡± Leonardo turned to Jasper and said, ¡°And you, Jace. You are suspended, right? What happened?¡± The three of them looked at each other and didn¡¯t know what to say. Jasper and Frederick were surprised that Leonardo knew everything so well. Frederick couldn¡¯t help but ask, ¡°Leo, how do you know all this?¡± He didn¡¯t tell anyone so he didn¡¯t understand howe Leonardo knew it. Leonardo said, ¡°Cassandra told me all of these things. So she must be far more powerful than any of us.¡± This was a fact that Leonardo had to admit. Although he regretted it, he still felt very proud that Cassandra was so powerful. Frederick and Jasper were shocked. They looked at each other and screamed in their mind, ¡°Cassandra?¡± Frederick said, ¡°Da mn it! Cassandra? I¡¯m not done with her!¡± He was so angry that he wanted to beat Cassandra up right now. Leonardo was speechless. He said, ¡°Frederick, don¡¯t you understand what | mean?¡± He thought, ¡°He even wants to get even with Cassandra? Is he so stu pid? ¡®Is his brain fully developed? ¡®He¡¯s so stu pid! Or, does he not understand humannguage?¡¯ However, what he didn¡¯t know was that the three of them were all fooled by Yulissa. If he hadn¡¯t learned the solid facts, Leonardo thought he would have just been like Frederick. Chapter 136 Chapter 136 At Whitecrane Hall. As soon as Cassandra arrived, she saw an uninvited guest. Cassandra thought, ¡°Tyler? ¡°It seems that he¡¯s here for his beloved grandson.¡± Cassandra walked calmly to Hugo. Hugo subconsciously wanted to stand up but didn¡¯t do it because Cassandra red at him. He sat down in fear and heard Cassandra¡¯s indifferent voice. ¡°Hugo, this is Mr...¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t know Tyler. It was Faye who knew the Zelinski family! ¡°This is Mr. Tyler Zelinski, Mr. Keh Zelinski¡¯s grandfather.¡± Hugo introduced them to Cassandra one by one. ¡°The man next to him is Mr. Keh Zelinski¡¯s father, Mr. Hector Zelinski.¡± Cassandra nodded a greeting at them. Tyler asked, ¡°This is...¡±N?velDrama.Org is the owner. There was a hint of awe in Hugo¡¯s tone. Tyler was surprised that Hugo was even more respectful to Cassandra than him. Hugo said, ¡°This is Mrs. Yates, also my master.¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t stay too long. She went to Jeremiah¡¯s office afterward. She took out her phone and texted Keh: [Your grandfather and your father are here at Whitecrane Hall.] As soon as the message was sent, Cassandra¡¯s phone rang. It was a call from Keh. Keh asked, ¡°Cass, are you serious? The old man of the Zelinski family is at Whitecrane Hall?¡± Cassandra felt speechless. She thought Keh had put it in a good way. Cassandra replied, ¡°Yes, they¡¯re talking about something with Hugo. | guess he wants to see Dr. Quirke.¡± Cassandra seemed very open with Keh now. She would even tell him her own thoughts. [e) 10:45 Fri, 23 Feb. Chapter 136 Keh said, ¡°Wait for me. I''ll be here soon!¡± Keh hung up the phone. Cassandra was a little bit confused. She thought, ¡®Why is heing here? It¡¯s useless without my permission.¡± Jeremiah leaned over to Cassandra and looked her up and down curiously. ¡°Who were you talking to?¡± Cassandra was so shocked that she threw the phone directly at him. She said, ¡°Go to hell if you ever scare me again.¡± Jeremiah shrugged with an innocent look and gave her phone back to her with both his hands. ¡°People from the Zelinski family are here. Have you seen them?¡± Cassandra nodded. ¡°Yes.¡± She thought, ¡®What do you mean?¡± ¡°Mr. Zelinski is so brutal. How could he beat his half-brother like that?¡± Jeremiah sighed, ¡°Will you save him?¡± ¡°He deserves it.¡± Cassandra rolled her eyes at Jeremiah. ¡°What do you think?¡± If she meant to save him, she would have cured him the first time. She wouldn''t give up on him just because of someone¡¯s nonsense. She went there because of the letters that Keh¡¯s mother had left. Keh¡¯s mother was gone forever so the rest could only find sce in things rted. to her. Jeremiah nodded. Jeremiah knew she meant that she wouldn¡¯t save him, not even though they asked Hugo for help. It wasn¡¯t long before Keh arrived. Jeremiah looked at Tyler and Hector and his mood darkened. He said with a gloomy face, ¡°What are you doing here?¡± Tyler was embarrassed. After all, people out of their family were present and Jeremiah was merciless. Tyler said, ¡°You came here to find Dr. Quirke. Why am | not allowed to do it?¡± DI Chapter 136 Tyler thought, ¡°Do you think you''re the only one who is involved in it? | am too!¡± However, the next moment, Hugo felt more embarrassed. Hugo said, ¡°Mr. Tyler Zelinski is here to visit me. He didn¡¯t mention anything about Dr. Quirke.¡± Tyler felt speechless. Tyler thought, ¡®Do you | don¡¯t want to talk about it?¡± Every time Tyler was about to mention it, Hugo interrupted him. So he didn¡¯t get a chance to mention it until just now. n Turning against Hugo was turning against Whitecrane Hall, which was equal to turning against Faye. Tyler didn¡¯t dare to offend Faye because now Conrad¡¯s legs all depended on Faye. Keh snorted in a low voice and he looked extremely contemptuous. This made Tyler feel a little bit embarrassed. Although Keh was like a piece of work that Tyler was proudest proud of, Tyler felt a headache thinking about Keh¡¯s wildness and unruliness. But what he didn¡¯t understand was that a person who was born to fight back could never be merciful, let alone Keh, who constantly had to fight andpete with others. Tyler said, ¡°Hugo, is there really no way to make Dr. Quirke show her magic again?¡± He had to not care that he would lose face in front of his grandson anymore. The most important thing for him now was Conrad¡¯s legs. If Conrad couldn¡¯t get proper treatment in time, it would be a disaster for his legs. Conrad shouted and cursed at home every day while Harriet cried and groaned, which was very irritating. Hugo was in a dilemma. He said, ¡°Mr. Zelinski, | want to help you but Dr. Quirke had treated Conrad for the sake of Mr. Zelinski. But you broke her rules. You can¡¯t me anyone for that. Dr. Quirke never treats people who don''t follow the rules twice. Please don¡¯t push me.¡± For one thing, Faye went to their house to treat the patient but was forced to leave because of their unreasonable behavior. Now, their effort to make up for it was toote. For the other thing, Hugo¡¯s kindness toward them had been worn thin but they still came here and asked for his help, which was ridiculous. It gave him a serious headache. It was possible that Faye would make an exception but not for everyone. 10:45 Fri, 23 Feb Chapter 136 Aman who had hired a murderer, for which her son even threw a party was unforgivable to Hugo. What was worse, those people almost hurt his master. If he hadn¡¯t owed Tyler a favor, he would have already cklisted everyone in the Zelinski manor. Tyler asked again, ¡°Are you sure that there is no other way? Tyler didn¡¯t want to give up. Even Hector did not want to give up. He said, ¡°Hugo, for the sake of my father, please talk to Dr. Quirke again. The Zelinski family will definitely repay you. Hector had to promise Hugo this. After all, it was about his son. If there was a chance that his son¡¯s legs could be cured, he wouldn''t want to miss it.. But Keh didn¡¯t think so. He snorted coldly, ¡°How can you repay Dr. Quirke? Do you think you can manage to do that?¡± Keh thought, ¡®It¡¯s not that | look down on him but... forget about it. Yes, | simply just look down on him. Hector scolded Keh coldly, ¡°He is your younger brother after all. How can you do this?¡± It was Keh who ruined Conrad''s legs but he couldn¡¯t say anything about it because Keh only ruined Conrad¡¯s legs while Harriet wanted Keh dead in the first ce. But now there was a chance to cure Conrad so Hector must try his best. Keh said, ¡°Why don¡¯t | remember that my mother once gave birth to another boy after me? If you can¡¯t control your lower body, you''d better chop it off as soon as possible.¡± If Hector hadn''t been fooling around, he wouldn¡¯t have had a mistress who showed off in front of Keh¡¯s mother. Keh¡¯s mother worked very hard for the Zelinski family but ended up miserably. Keh med Harriet and Hector for it. Once he officially seized control of everything that belonged to the Zelinski family, they would die. Hector said, ¡°Keh!¡± He was so angry. He didn¡¯t expect his son to say such cruel words. Cassandra walked over to them from behind and said in a cold voice, ¡°Don¡¯t pester Hugo. I''d like to pour cold water on your idea so that you can give up.¡± Tyler frowned, ¡°What do you mean?¡± He thought, ¡°Who is this girl? She has no manners. at all. wll 10:45 Fri, 23 Feb.

Do you understand?¡± 0 SEND GIFT COMMENT fii) Chapter 137 Chapter 137 Tyler¡¯s face darkened instantly. Hugo said Cassandra was his master just now so Tyler swallowed his anger. But to his surprise, Cassandra interrupted rudely their conversation! What was worse, Cassandra said Dr. Quirke would never agree to save Conrad. He thought, ¡°She is so young but so arrogant! | didn¡¯t expect to be looked down upon by a little girl after all these years of establishment in Drieso.¡± He suppressed his anger and asked calmly, ¡°Little girl, what do you mean?¡± Cassandra rolled her eyes at him. She hated him a lot but she had to hide it in front of him. She even thought she was a hypocrite herself. Cassandra nced contemptuously at Tyler and Hector. ¡°It means what it literally means. Dr. Quirke agreed to help you for Mr. Keh Zelinski¡¯s sake because Mr. Keh Zelinski paid a lot. She wanted to return the favor. But do you really think he can make Dr. Quirke do anything?¡± Keh felt speechless. He thought Cassandra sounded like she could read Faye¡¯s mind. The Zelinski family had given Faye a lot of money but she took it for granted. To prevent disastrous consequences, Tyler asked Hugo privately before he gave her the rest consultation fee, which was 2 billion dors. Otherwise, they wouldn¡¯t even have been here at this moment. However, the money was already paid to Faye but Conrad¡¯s legs hadn''t been cured. So of course, Tyler and Hector were resentful. Harriet had gone crazy and they couldn''t feel at peace at home at all. They had no other choice but to ask for Hugo¡¯s help. However, they were refused by Cassandra. How could Tyler feel good? Ignoring Cassandra, Tyler turned to Hugo and said, ¡°Hugo, the Whitecrane Hall is not in the charge of this girl, isn¡¯t it?¡± His tone of voice was already showing his displeasure. 10:45 Fri, 23 Feb. Chapter 137 However, Hugo didn¡¯t mind anyone being angry except for his little master. Hugo said, ¡°Mr. Zelinski, | don¡¯t know whether Whitecrane Hall is in the charge of her. But if she said that Dr. Quirke was unwilling to treat someone, it¡¯s the end. So, don¡¯t waste your energy on this matter again.¡± Then he made a gesture of showing them where the door was. He was suggesting that there was no need for them to waste time here. Keh enjoyed looking at them while they felt embarrassed a lot. He felt a bit happy and he was aware that it was Cassandra who brought him this joyfulness. Keh said, ¡°Don¡¯t make a fool of yourself if you are not that powerful. Conrad¡¯s suffering was all his mother¡¯s fault.¡± Keh was very delighted to see them embarrassed and helpless. Yannick¡¯s smile betrayed him. He thought, ¡®What a memorable day! Karma¡¯s doing great now! ¡®It''s so unfair that my master is always the one who suffers. Every penny they have is earned by him. They''re just a bunch of s ums who depend on my master and want to rece him! Ridiculous people!¡¯ Yannick said, ¡°Mr. Hector Zelinski and Mr. Tyler Zelinski, we¡¯d better go back home and find another doctor.¡± Hector nced at him coldly but Yannick looked into his eyes fearlessly. There was no doctor who was better than Faye in this world. However, she was a mystery. No one even knew her whereabouts. Cassandra said, ¡°Mr. Tyler Zelinski, you know what Conrad and his mother have done. You haven''t realized that you have offended others. Now you are even here begging for help. If | were you, | would be too ashamed to walk out of my home. You only reap what you''ve sown.¡± Cassandra thought, ¡°You shouldn¡¯t havee to Whitecrane Hall to pester Hugo thinking that people should respect you¡¯ Hugo noticed that Cassandra was already angry. He was a little anxious and thought, ¡®It¡¯s all because | have to return the go d-damn favor. That was a bad choice. 10:45 Fri, 23 Feb Chapter 137 It made Cassandra so mad!¡± Now Hugo even found Tyler a bit annoying. Hugo said, ¡°Mr. Zelinski, please go back home. She has said that Dr. Quirke wouldn''t. treat Conrad so it¡¯s the end of the story. It won''t change no matter how long you will stay here.¡± 67% Hugo was suggesting that they should leave for the second time. Tyler felt embarrassed so he snorted coldly and left. Hector nced at Keh with aplicated expression and then left without saying anything. After Tyler and the others left, Cassandra said coldly, ¡°Hugo, you have returned the favor to the Zelinski family. There are certain things that we can never do. You know what the consequences will be.¡± They weren¡¯t careful enough so people knew Whitecrane Hall was owned by Faye, which put Jeremiah and Hugo in an awkward position. Cassandra had to make a rule that she wouldn''t help anyone who asked Jeremiah and Hugo for help privately. However, people in the Zelinski manor repeatedly broke her rule and even came to Whitecrane Hall to beg Hugo. This was totally uneptable. Hugo replied, ¡°Yes, Ms. Yates.¡±N?velDrama.Org is the owner. Hugo bowed to Cassandra respectfully. He knew Cassandra was angry. He was lucky that she didn¡¯t me him. But Hugo¡¯s attitude aroused Keh¡¯s suspicion. In any case, Hugo¡¯s power in Dri¨¦so was almost unparalleled. He would be respected by everyone on most asions. So, Keh wondered why he was so respectful to Cassandra. He even thought Hugo was to Cassandra what Yannick was to the Zelinski family. He wondered if Faye was not like what he thought. However, he didn¡¯t immediately try to confirm his guess. Instead, he apologized. ¡°Cassandra, I¡¯m so sorry for troubling you today.¡± He knew Tyler would definitely not let Cassandra get away with it. If Harriet knew 10:45 Fri 23 Feb. Chapter 137 about this, she wouldn¡¯t either. * 67% Cassandra shook her head. She didn¡¯t care about it. She said, ¡°If | were them, | would not do anything rashly. In this world, there is no one but Faye who can save their precious son. If you are worried that they will hurt me, | advise you to worry about how to deal with them if they keep pestering you.¡± Cassandra thought anyone with a little brain wouldn''t dare to make trouble for her. From now on, they would think she was the one who could control Faye¡¯s decision and Keh stood up for her just now. In that case, they would never miss this opportunity. They would talk to Keh again or go directly to Cassandra. They were too anxious and made an unwise decision and unfortunately, it didn¡¯t work out. The moment Harriet sent someone to Spaunia to kill Keh, the end of the story was decided. When Cassandra was in the car, she could tell that Keh had taken a very gentle approach to deal with it but they were not aware of their mistakes at all. They thought Harriet was not a criminal because Keh was unharmed. They needed Faye¡¯s help but threatened with the letters of Keh¡¯s mother so Cassandra had to stop treating Conrad before he was cured. Keh understood what Cassandra meant. He snorted, ¡°What a touching show of a grandfather and grandchild. I¡¯d like to see what they can do for Conrad!¡± After chatting with Cassandra for a while, Keh decided to leave but was stopped by Cassandra. ¡°If you are free tonight, come to my ce. | have a question for you.¡± Keh said, ¡°No problem.¡± 0 Chapter 138 Chapter 138 After Keh left, Hugo told Cassandra that he had something to talk about with her. So, they went to the office. Jeremiah had been waiting for them there. The moment Cassandra sat down, Hugo and Jeremiah gathered around her. She asked, ¡°What¡¯s up?¡± She wondered why they suddenly surrounded her. Jeremiah asked, ¡°ine, what¡¯s the rtionship between you and Mr. Zelinski?¡± Cassandra knew what he wanted to know. She said, ¡°Let''s say, we¡¯rerades or friends.¡± She didn¡¯t go into details about Keh but she told Jeremiah what Keh said: she and Keh used to know each other. Jeremiah frowned, ¡°Do | know him? Why can¡¯t | recall anything about this person?¡¯ Jeremiah thought, ¡®No, | remember something. ine brought back a big boy from somewhere unknown. He stayed unconscious for several days and talked in his sleep. Sometimes, when ine was impatient, she even wanted to throw him out. Back then, Blossom was also sick. Jeremiah was like a burden to ine too. But she still brought this big boy home. Although she was having a hard time, she still wanted to help them. That big boy had been in aa for a week before he woke up. He almost killed Jeremiah and ine after he woke up. Fortunately, ine was good at fighting and the boy was very weak since he had just woken up so they managed to control him and then exined everything. They lived together for about half a month afterward. The big boy took good care of Jeremiah and ine and ine was his favorite. But he didn¡¯te back after he went out with ine one day. ine fainted at the door of the house. When she woke up, she forgot what had happened in thest half a month. Keh once said that he and ine used to know each other. Jeremiah couldn¡¯t remember anyone else but that big boy. Jeremiah knew almost everyone that ine knew. But he didn¡¯t know any/Keh from ine¡¯s past, so he figured maybe Keh was that big boy. 10:45 Fri, 23 Feb uu Chapter 138 He didn¡¯t tell ine what he was thinking about because she didn¡¯t remember anything that happened during that period of time. He didn¡¯t want to tell her either. She didn¡¯t find any external force that caused it after all. Jeremiah said, ¡°It means nothing. | guess you just happened to see each other sometime in the past. Jeremiah didn¡¯t take it seriously. He thought he needed to ask Keh in private about it. Cassandra ignored Jeremiah and turned to Hugo. ¡°Hugo, didn¡¯t you say you had something to tell me?¡± Hugo didn¡¯te to his senses until now. He hurriedly handed the document of the n to Cassandra. ¡°This is the n of the cooperation sent from the Zelinski Group. They want to develop a medicine. We will take care of the research and development and they will pay for it. Please have a look.¡± The medicine was intended to be a pain reliever that could stop the bleeding rapidly. It was a special effect medicine for the injured. Cassandra flipped through the document and had a rough idea of what it was about. Keh was developing special-effect medicine for hisrades. He is a soldier who put others¡¯ safety first so he was usually wounded all over his body. Therefore, he needed this kind of medicine that could quickly relieve pain and stop the bleeding hence its ability to save people¡¯s lives at the most critical moment. Cassandra said, ¡°You can discuss the follow-up with them. I''ll do some research when | have time.¡± Keh was full of contradictions. So was she. Right after a medicine that could amplify the pain was developed, he wanted something that could relieve the pain. One was to hurt people and the other was to save them. She only hoped that the Yates family would not let her down. She decided that the first person to try this medicine would be Jasper. After their conversation, Cassandra was ready to go back. She had been very busy and barely had any time to rest. There was nothing else to take care of today so she wanted. BHSES:67% Chapter 138 to go back and sleep. But just when Cassandra felt a bit relieved, things came to her. Frederick and Jasper arrived. But Scarlett stopped them at the door. Scarlett was alone so she felt a little bit helpless. She said, ¡°Get out of here! Whitecrane Hall doesn¡¯t wee anyone from the Yates family!¡± Frederick ignored her. No one dared to stop him like this before. He said, ¡°Get out of my way! I¡¯m looking for Cassandra!¡± Hearing his voice, Cassandra felt disgusted. Frederick saw her at this moment and shouted angrily, ¡°Cassandra, why are hiding from me? What do you mean? Look what you''ve done to Lisa! Bit ch! You''re a jinx!¡± Cassandra walked slowly toward Frederick. She stretched her right hand and felt like she had an itch on her slender hands, which gave her an urge to p. With a loud bang, Frederick¡¯s face turned red and swollen. Frederick felt a tearing pain after the p. His beautiful eyes, which fascinated. countless people, widened and he red at Cassandra. He screamed in his mind, ¡®How dare she p me! ¡®Bi tch! If | will definitely make her learn from it!¡± He was so angry that he clenched his jaw tightly. He said, ¡°Cassandra, you¡¯re courting death!¡± Cassandra said, ¡°That still remains a question. But if you don¡¯t leave immediately, you¡¯re courting death. And you may even end up in a trending topic. Do you believe. that?¡± Frederick remained silent. He thought, ¡®D amn it! | just can¡¯t control myself when Cassandra is involved. ¡®| used to bully her as often as | wanted at home. Somehow, | suddenly forgot that this is a public ce. Frederick cursed in his mind. Jasper also looked bad. He thought Cassandra was getting more and more audacious.Content held by N?velDrama.Org. He thought, ¡°How dare she p Fred across the face!¡± Ill [e) Chapter 138 Jasper red at Cassandra and scolded her, ¡°Cassandra, how dare you p Fred!¡± Cassandra snorted coldly with a contemptuous look, which was irritating. She said, ¡°I¡¯ve already done it. What¡¯s the help of asking me this question? Didn''t you just see how it happened? Do you want me to show it again?¡± Bang! She pped hard across Jasper in the face. She meant that she did not only dare to p Frederick but also Jasper! Jasper went furious at once. He screamed, ¡°Cassandra, anything and you pped both of us. Don¡¯t you think ve gone too far. We didn¡¯t say you should apologize to us?¡± Scarlett thought Jasper and Frederick were insane. They behaved like they wanted to get hit but they asked for an apology afterward. Cassandra gave them an approving nod. ¡°You''re right. You didn¡¯t do anything. You just called me a bit ch.¡± Jasper was shocked and nced at Frederick in an awkward way. He thought he was too impulsive just now. Leonardo had already told him that Cassandra was already a different person now. Jasper said, ¡°We¡¯re here for a reason. You could make Dr. Quirke treat Ray so | believe you can make him agree to cure Dad¡¯s cerebral infarction. Ask Dr. Quirke to treat Dad.¡± He sounded like he took it for granted, which was shameless. Scarlett thought she had never seen a more brazen person. Hearing Jasper¡¯s shameless words, Cassandra was so angry that she almost wanted tough. She said, ¡°What did you just say?¡± Cassandra thought, | didn¡¯t hear you. Excuse me?¡± Frederick stepped forward and shouted, ¡°Bit ch! Ask Dr. Quirke to save Dad. Do | make myself clear?¡± He thought, ¡®If you still don¡¯t understand it, | will do something to understand!¡¯ force you to Cassandra smiled contemptuously, ¡°Of course, | understand your words. But do you think you deserve it?¡± Chapter 139 Chapter 139 Jasper blushed a little. It was hard to say whether he appeared so out of shame or because he was pped by Cassandra. He just didn¡¯t expect Cassandra to say that. Had it not been for their fear of rumors, Benjamin and Leonardo would never have brought her back from the countryside. They had expected her to listen to them after she came to town, but they hadn¡¯t expected her to be so rebellious. She always wanted things that weren''t hers and bullied Yulissa. That was why they regretted bringing her back. They intended to keep her as an adopted daughter, but she left home without telling them. Moreover, she seemed to be more excellent without the Yates family. Not only had she progressed in her studies, but she had also be the famous designer ine and countless people¡¯s idol Samantha. Those names were big enough to make the Yates family respectable. That was also why Benjamin and Miranda were trying to get her back after they disowned her. However, Cassandra wasn¡¯t grateful at all. She had tried her best to please her elder brothers earlier, but now she pped them.. Things weren''t looking good for Benjamin and Miranda. Since she woke up, she had been sitting there quietly with a nk face. They all knew that she hadn''t recovered from the emotional damage, but they just couldn¡¯t figure out why. ¡°Watch your mouth, Cassandra. Anyway, we¡¯re your biological brothers and parents are still in the hospital.¡± Jasper braced himself to say that. your He was scolded by Leonardo yesterday, and he was not sure now whether Cassandra would change her mind. ¡°| have no family.

Frederick was a little angry when he realized that Cassandra saw through their trick. ¡°We''re always family, and you shouldn''t take our angry words seriously. Come on, get Dr. Quirke to treat Dad and Mom. By the way, Lisa is also part of the family. You don¡¯t have to go to court. You¡¯d better drop thewsuit as soon as possible.¡± Hearing this, Jasper was so surprised, thinking, ¡®How dare Fred say this? Isn¡¯t he afraid. of being pped by Cassandra like us?¡± Scarlett was also shocked. She couldn''t believe what Frederick just said. As soon as Jeremiah came out, he heard Frederick¡¯s words, so he said seriously with a darkened face, ¡°You¡¯re so shameless. When you brought Cassie home, you said that would treat her kindly, but what did you do? You spoiled that fraud while kept picking you on Cassie. ¡°You even said nothing when you knew that she hired someone to kill Cassie. You believe that Cassie will always say yes to your requests, don¡¯t you? But you know what, Frederick? Yulissa is a murderer and she has to spend the rest of her life in prison! You''re in no position to get Cassie to drop thewsuit! ¡°Have you ever raised her or cared about her? You did nothing for her yet you¡¯re asking her to help you. Don¡¯t be ridiculous!¡± He thought, ¡°The Yates family deserves this! ¡®They trusted Yulissa unconditionally and left ine alone. They asked for it. That¡¯s not the worst for them!" Hearing this, Frederick wanted to punch Jeremiah in the face for meddling in the Yates family¡¯s affairs and driving a wedge between them and Cassandra. He felt more furious. when he heard Jeremiah say that Yulissa belonged in prison. Jasper stopped the furious Fredrick for fear that he would irritate Cassandra. Jasper¡¯s face didn¡¯t hurt anymore, but began to feel an itch over his body. He couldn''t stay here any longer, otherwise, he would embarrass himself. ¡°It''s fine if you don¡¯t want to ask Dr. Quirke to treat Mom and Dad, Cassandra, but you should at least visit them. Even though they didn¡¯t do their job as your parents, Mom went through a lot to give birth to you. Now she woke up. Don¡¯t you think you should 2/4 Mon, 26 Feb Chapter 139 visit her?¡± Jasper tried another way. Cassandra raised her eyebrows and thought, ¡®Did Miranda wake up? ¡®| wonder how she will react when she knows what happened to her family. | do want to see how she will end up. Therefore, sheughed and said, ¡°Sure, I''ll visit her. Don¡¯t regret it.¡± Jasper frowned, wondering, ¡®What should | regret? My biggest regret is that | didn¡¯t stop Mom and Dad from bringing her back! ¡®Now we can only count on Leo to convince her! ¡°ine... Jeremiah wanted to stop her, but Cassandra red at him and shut his mouth. He got it and withdrew his hand with a smile. He knew that ine wouldn¡¯t do anything bad to herself. She agreed to go to the hospital for a reason. If someone was gonna get hurt in the hospital, it wouldn''t be ine. Had it not been for hisck of connection to the Yates family, he would have followed them to the hospital to see how they ended up. When they arrived at the hospital, they saw Leonardo feeding Miranda water.? 2024 N?v/el/Dram/a.Org. Miranda seemed dazed and she couldn''t even utter aplete sentence. What happened to her was still a mystery. Cassandra was happy to see this and she couldn''t help smiling. However, her gloating face irritated Frederick. ¡°How could you laugh when you see mom like this? You''re so ruthless!¡± Cassandra ignored Frederick''s bullshit and nced at him disdainfully. ¡°She¡¯s your mom, not mine.¡± Leonardo heard their conversation and was surprised to see Cassandra there. ¡°Cassie...¡± 3/4 9x77% 1 10:21 Mon, 26 Feb Chapter 139 Cassandra interrupted him immediately, ¡°I''ll leave if you call me Cassie again!¡± ¡°What are you doing here? Are you here for Mom?¡± asked Leonardo. ¡°Yeah. I''m here to see whether Mrs. Yates is dead!¡± Jasper, Fredrick, and Leonardo all frowned, thinking that Cassandra was being too mean. However, she just looked at Miranda for a while and said sarcastically, ¡°She doesn¡¯t need Dr. Quirke. Believe it or not, | can bring her back to her senses with a few words.¡± The next second, Cassandra walked to Miranda and said casually, ¡°Your daughter is about to face her final trial. Mr. Youngblood did his best to get her the worst sentence and she''ll be in prison for seven years, which means you spent 7 billion dors in vain. How do you feel about that? ¡°Oh, it¡¯s not all in vain. The director of the Public Security Bureau didn¡¯t take it so | got the 7 billion dors and the shares.¡± Miranda tried so hard and she lost all the family property in the end. Hearing this, Jasper, Fredrick, and Leonardo were all shocked. They thought, ¡®What does she mean? How did she get the money?* ¡°Cassandra! Give me back my money, Cassandra!¡± Cassandra took several steps back and ignored Miranda¡¯s yell. Then she walked to the three men and said, ¡°See? She woke up. SEND GIFT Chapter 140 Chapter 140 What Cassandra said made Leonardo speechless. He was so surprised to see how Cassandra excited Miranda. After all, he talked to her many times since she woke up but she just wouldn¡¯t say anything. Leonardo was also curious how Cassandra got the 7 billion dors and the shares, but he couldn¡¯t get a chance to ask her. Miranda kept yelling hysterically, ¡°Give me back my money, Cassandra! Free Lisa! How dare you steal my money, bitch? You''re going to hell!¡± She said the worst things to Cassandra and she even cursed her to death. Leonardo frowned while listening to them. He seemed disgusted by Miranda¡¯s reaction. After all, she was Cassandra¡¯s mother yet she was cursing her. Ironically, Leonardo might forget that he once wanted Cassandra dead too, so what Miranda said was not that uneptable. ¡°me yourself, Mrs. Yates. Do you think that the Yates family is as rich as it used to be and that you have as much money as you want?¡± Cassandra chucked as if she had thought about something funny. ¡°Honestly, I¡¯m quite curious why you didn¡¯t take the opportunity to save Raymond at the auction. The pill that can cure him was only 1.76 billion dors, and you could have hired Dr. Quirke to treat him for merely 2 billion dors, but you didn¡¯t. Why? ¡°And you spent 7 billion dors to save Yulissa. Plus the shares, that¡¯s over 8 billion dors. You spent all the Yates family¡¯s money without hesitation, but you know what? Yulissa can¡¯t get out of prison She was out just for three days before she was arrested again. The price of saving her is quite high, isn¡¯t it, Mrs. Yates?¡± Cassandra knew what Miranda¡¯s weakness was and every word she said drove her crazy. ¡°Shut up! You set me up. It¡¯s all your fault! Just give me back my money and free Lisa!¡± Miranda was still unaware of her mistake and med Cassandra for everything. Suddenly, Cassandra stopped smiling and said coldly with a meaningful look, ¡°Sometimes | wonder who¡¯s your biological daughter. Me or Yulissa? Maybe we should do a DNA test After saying that, she turned around and nced at the three brothers. Just as she was 1/4 10:21 Mon, 26 Feb G Chapter 140 about to leave, she saw someone enter the room in a daze. It was Raymond. He looked so disappointed and had tears in his eyes. Cassandra sneered and thought, ¡®What now? Raymond must have heard everything. Just look at his face. He didn¡¯t seem to think his parents would do something like this. ¡°Wow, Raymond and Yohannes are here,¡± she said. Raymond was followed by Yohannes, who seemed to care a lot about how he felt. However, Raymond seemed to be emotionally damaged and he almost lost his bnce. Cassandra thought, ¡®Did what | said shocked him? That¡¯s not the proud young man | used to know!¡± Miranda paused and thought, ¡®What? Ray is here. ¡®Did he hear it?¡± ¡°I''ll leave you alone.¡± Cassandra nced at Raymond with a meaningful look. There was hate and contempt in her eyes, but no sympathy. Cassandra¡¯s visit was another blow to the Yates family. After she left, Raymond looked at Miranda and said in disbelief, ¡°Is what Cassandra said true, Mom? Did you save Yulissa with all our money?¡± He realized that they just didn¡¯t want to save him when he was in danger. Now he knew what they were thinking. They never spent a single dor on him while they spent all their money on Yulissa without hesitation. Cassandra asked Miranda the same question he wanted to ask. Miranda was a little panicked. She held Raymond''s hand and tried her best to exin, ¡°Listen to me, Ray. Your father wouldn''t give me the money so | couldn''t save you. | could do nothing about it at that time. I¡¯m so sorry, but please don¡¯t...¡± Finding it ridiculous, Raymond shook off Miranda¡¯s hand and said, ¡°Then how did you save Yulissa? | know Dad well and he would never save her with all our money.¡± He knew it. He was not as important to them as Yulissa was to them. After all, they had six sons so it was okay to lose him. That was how his parents treated him. 2/4 Chapter 140 Miranda was flustered and didn¡¯t dare to look Raymond in the eye. ¡°I didn¡¯t mean it, Ray. Your father wouldn¡¯t give me the money. I had no choice...¡±N?velDrama.Org is the owner. ¡°Then tell me how you saved Yulissa!¡± He had already known the truth, but he just wanted to hear it from his mother. He had been disappointed once so it wouldn¡¯t hurt him anymore. His loud voice frightened Miranda, who trembled and stammered, ¡°Y¡ªYour father asked me to keep the money.¡± She took Raymond''s hand again. ¡°I was going to save you after | got Lisa out of prison, Ray. | just...¡± She just didn¡¯t expect that she would bankrupt their family. She even mortgaged the Yates residence to raise money. The Yates family was done. Raymond shook his head with a bitter smile, closed his eyes, and cried. He thought, ¡°This is what it feels like to be ignored, right? Why didn¡¯t | die in the race? ¡®Is this how Cassandra gets back at me? ¡®She could have killed me, but she didn¡¯t. Did she do this to show me how selfish and uncaring my family is?¡± The most painful thing for him was going through what Cassandra went through. He regretted it. He thought that maybe death was a better end for him. ¡°I wish that | had never been born at all, Mom.¡± He could ept that his mother, who wouldn¡¯t spend a single dor on him even though she had tens of billions of dors, spent everything to save a girl who wasn¡¯t even rted to her. Yohannes was surprised by what he heard. He was curious about what happened exactly. He wondered how so many things had changed at home during his time abroad. Leonardoforted Raymond in a low voice, ¡°It¡¯s not as simple as you think, Ray. Don¡¯t be so impulsive.¡± Hearing this, Raymond snorted and said, ¡°You saw it, Leo. You know the difference between the way they treat me and the way they treat Yulissa. Do | have to exin it to 3/4 Dreame THE 10:21 Mon, 26 Feb u Chapter 140 you? Stop calling me your brother from now on.¡± He was there to visit Miranda, but he didn¡¯t expect to hear all of this. He had to admit. that Cassandra got him. Now he just wanted to let it out. He wanted to go boxing and racing. Miranda, who was crying her heart out, tried to go after Raymond, but Jasper stopped her and asked Leonardo and Frederick to do that. Yohannes didn¡¯t say a word all the time. He just followed Raymond there and then left with him. The ward was in chaos. They asked for it. They didn¡¯t need Faye. They had been refusing to face the truth, and it was unknown how Benjamin would react when he found out about this. Hf Chapter 141 Chapter 141 The three-day deadline agreed by the debt collector and the Yates family had expired. After learning that the Yates family was in the hospital, the debt collector went to the hospital. It was not that he was cruel, but he had to do it because of the order from his boss. The Yates family could only me themselves for offending the wrong people. The debt collector was following the order. His boss had told him to collect as much money as he could. In the hospital, the man said, ¡°Mrs. Yates, the three-day deadline has passed. Will you be paying the money or giving up the house?¡± His tone was still arrogant as usual. The debt collector followed the legal process. Even if Miranda called the police, she had to pay the money ording to the contract. Miranda suddenly trembled. She didn¡¯t know anything. The house and the money were hers. Miranda believed she didn¡¯t do anything. ¡°| don¡¯t owe you money. Don¡¯te to me!¡± Miranda refused to admit it. She had nothing left except for the Yates residence and her private money. As long as Miranda didn¡¯t hand them over, she could live a rich life if she was economical for the rest of her life. ¡°It''s written clearly in the contract. If you want to deny it, I¡¯m afraid you can¡¯t. If you don¡¯t choose, then | will submit this mortgage contract to the bank for repossession,¡± the man cautioned. The Yates family was shocked. ¡°No, you can¡¯t do that!¡± Frederick shouted. Frederick didn¡¯t expect that what Leo said was true. Miranda had really mortgaged the house. Did Yulissa trick Miranda into doing so? Frederick thought, ¡®Is it true? Did Lisa really do that? Why did she do that? Did the Yates family treat her unfairly?¡± Miranda was a little scared and nestled beside Frederick, trembling. Leonardo didn¡¯t have the heart to see her like this. After all, Miranda was his mother. = Chapter 14 ¡°Just talk to me. | can make the decision!¡± Leonardo said. Benjamin was in aa now, and Miranda was too scared to say anything. Leonardo was the only one who could support the family now. ¡°Can you make the decision?¡± The man looked at Leonardo up and down. It seemed that Leonardo was a member of the Yates family, but he doubted if Leonardo could keep his word. The man handed the contract to Leonardo and said. ¡°Read it yourself it¡¯s all written in the contract. Its evidence. We have given Mrs. Vates time to make a choice, but she seems to be dazed now¡± The Yates family had no chance to get away with it. Leonardo read the contract carefully and looked a little embarrassed. He thought s true that the Yates family has owed so much money. They have to pay either the house or the money.Content ? provided by N?velDrama.Org. Leonardo sighed and said. ¡®Grve us a few more hours to discuss it.¡± An hourter, they reached an agreement. They would pay the money. However, for the time being, they wouldn¡¯t use Miranda¡¯s private money which should be kept for saving Benjamin. They would collect 200 million dors. Leonardo was the eldest. He offered $0 million dors, and Frederick, Jasper, and Matthew 30 million dors each. Yohannes and Raymond were unwilling to go home. so they couldn''t contribute any money. Although Matthew returned home, he had to solve all his problems first before he could go to the hospital. But he didn¡¯t have any objection to the money. Therefore, the money was soon enough After the man got the money and registered it, this matter was settled. Seeing that man leave, Miranda finally felt relieved. Her face was not so pale and she no longer looked afraid. She felt lucky to have her sons who helped her settle the debt and keep the house. Dreame 77% 10:21 Mon, 26 Febu G Chapter 141 Before Cassandra got home, she received a call from Connor. ¡°Cassandra, have you checked your SAT score?¡± Connor asked. Cassandra had been upied recently. Suddenly she realized that she was still a student now. ¡°Not yet. Can we check the scores now?¡± Cassandra replied. ¡°They''lle out tomorrow, but Mr. Huddleston said his phone had been busy all day.¡± Cassandra was a little confused, but she should have got good grades. ¡°Well, I''ll check my scores tomorrow,¡± she said. As soon as Cassandra hung up the phone, she received a call from Hugo. ¡°Ms. Yates, have you gone home?¡± Hugo asked. ¡°| just arrived at the door!¡± Cassandra replied. ¡°Okay, wait for me at home.¡± The phone was hung up. Cassandra wondered what it was and why Hugo didn¡¯t tell her on the phone. Before long, Hugo came back, but not alone. There were several people behind him. Most of them were middle-aged and old men, and several of the people looked nearly thirty years old. ¡°Ms. Yates, they are the principals from the universities in Drieso. They came to see you... Hugo said. Since Cassandra left the Yates residence, her school information had been changed directly. Fortunately, she filled in the admission contact numberte, so she crossed out all the information about the Yates family and changed it to Hugo¡¯s. But the scores woulde out tomorrow. One of the men said, ¡°This is Cassandra, right? I¡¯m the principal of Juset University. Next to me are the deans of the School of Physics and the School of Mathematics. We came here to invite you to study at Juset University!¡± The principal of Juset University was an elderly man. He introduced the deans to Cassandra excitedly as he pointed at them. Another man stated, ¡°Cassandra, | am the principal of Braxton University. | cordially invite you to join our university. You will have the freedom to choose your major and Chapter 141 will be awarded a full schrship. What do you think?¡± However, the man guessed that Cassandra must notck money since she could afford to live in a vi. Anyway, he had to show his sincerity. At this time, another man said, ¡°Cassandra, I¡¯m the principal of Elysian Hills University. Why don¡¯t you choose our school where you can select whatever major you want? We will provide you with a full schrship and an independent dormitory. Most importantly, the canteen environment and staff are nice, and the food in our canteen is delicious.¡± Elysian Hills University was famous for its meals. Cassandra heard them talking quietly. There were about eight universities, some of which were in Sloummont. Although Cassandra had expected her high scores, the scene still shocked her. ¡°Dear sirs, if | remember correctly, the SAT score will be released tomorrow. Am | right?¡± Cassandra said. How could they get the news so fast? It was not surprising for the universities to get the news ahead of time. However, getting the news one day in advance was still a bit outrageous. One man said, ¡°The results have been released a long time ago, but they will be announced tomorrow. We''ve already got the list of top 20 students in the country.¡± What he meant was that Cassandra was their prey and she¡¯d better make a choice quickly. Cassandra said, ¡°Let me think about it. | haven¡¯t decided on a university yet.¡± At this time, the dean of Juset University added, ¡°Cassandra, think about it carefully. Let me tell you this; Juset University is definitely your best choice. You will not only have a full schrship but also an independent apartment, which is free for outstanding students. Although our canteen is not that famous, its taste will be no worse than that of high-end restaurants outside. So, Cassandra, you must think about it carefully!¡± How could Cassandra not have decided which university to go to? In her past life, Yulissa epted her cement and went to Juset University. Although Cassandra no longer needed to attend school, she did not have a degree in the country. Perhaps she should settle for it. Besides, there was an old man at Juset University. 4/5 Dreame Chapter 142 Chapter 142 The SAT results were avable the next morning. The students were very nervous about how many scores they could get or whether they could enter their favorite universities. At ten o¡¯clock, the gateway officially became avable. However, due to an overwhelming influx of traffic, the system experienced a temporary crash. After a long time, the students still didn¡¯t get their results. Since Edward received countless calls yesterday, Connor was concerned about Cassandra¡¯s scores. Later, Edward also came to Connor''s office and wanted to know the result. Connor called Cassandra when the scores were avable. However, Cassandra was studying the two medicines that Keh wantedst night. At four or five o¡¯clock in the morning, Cassandra went to bed. So she was still dreaming at ten o¡¯clock when she was woken up by the ringtone. The phone rang several times, which annoyed Cassandra. She wanted to curse when she answered the phone, but the other end spoke first. ¡°Cassandra, did you get the result?¡± Connor asked. Cassandra was stunned for a moment and said irritably, ¡°No.¡± Then she hung up the phone directly. Cassandra was such a person. If she didn¡¯t want to sleep, she could stay up for about three days. However, when she fell asleep, she didn¡¯t want anyone to disturb her. No matter what happened, she would only handle it when she woke up. After Cassandra hung up the phone, Connor was a little confused. He thought, ¡®What is she doing? Doesn¡¯t she care about her scores at all?* Edward was also very anxious and asked, ¡°How is it? Did she check it out?¡± Ever since the school violence case, Cassandra had blocked Edward without giving him a chance to defend himself. Therefore, Edward couldn''t get in touch with Cassandra anymore. Edward had no way but to find Connor. 1/15 Dreame 10:21 Mon, 26 Feb Chapter 142 BR77% I Connor said in a trembling voice, ¡°She didn¡¯t check it. She hung up the phone.¡± Connor felt that Cassandra was not happy. Edward was rendered speechless. Then he asked, ¡°How was her tone? Was it cold or a little irritable?¡± That was important for Edward. ¡°She was a little irritable and even a little impatient...¡± Connor replied, wondering if he had identally offended Cassandra. No, he didn¡¯t think so. Edward breathed a sigh of relief and said, ¡°Let¡¯s wait. You can ask herter this afternoon.¡± Edward thought, | guess this little girl is doing some kind of experiment. She must have worked all night and haven¡¯t woken up.¡± Edward had been fortunate enough to be spoken to in such a manner on two asions. Hugo didn¡¯t dare to disturb Cassandra. He took the principals to wait on the first floor, asking them to keep their voices down as much as possible in case Cassandra got angry. The principals were good-tempered. They just sat there and waited quietly withoutining. They were afraid that if they raised their volume, Cassandra would be disturbed. What if she didn¡¯t apply to their universities because of this? When Cassandra woke up, she found that the hall was full of people. They were the principals who hade to her yesterday. ¡°Cassandra, good morning. How are you?¡± The principal of Juset University, Henry, was the first to greet Cassandra warmly. In this respect, his reaction was surprisingly quick. ¡°Cassandra, did you check your scores? How many did you get?¡± another principal asked.? 2024 N?v/el/Dram/a.Org. The principals kept asking. They just had a rough estimation of the scores. Cassandra. held a position within the top ten in the country, but the specifics remained unclear. Dreame Chapter 112 ¡°| haven''t checked yet. Please wait a moment,¡± Cassandra replied. Only then did Cassandra remember that someone seemed to have called her this morning to ask about her scores, but she hung up the phone. Hugo took over Cassandra¡¯sptop and she quickly logged into the ount to check the result. Cassandra got a total score of 1598! The principals were shocked by this result. This time, there were only three students with a score of more than 1560. They thought that Cassandra''s score was at most about 1580, which was already remarkable. Unexpectedly, Cassandra got 1598. Only two points were deducted for literature. The principals were excited. Every one of them was determined to get Cassandra. The principal of Juset University was the first to react. He said, ¡°Cassandra, as long as you apply for Juset University, you can choose your major as you like and the tuition is free. In addition to a full schrship, we will provide you with outstanding student funds, start-up funds, and a free public student apartment. We will definitely give our best to you. Come to Juset University. There are many excellent students here...¡± However, he was interrupted before he could finish his words. The principal of Braxton University thought that if he didn¡¯t fight for it, Cassandra would go to Justet University, so he said, ¡°Cassandra,e to Braxton University. You don¡¯t have to pay the tuition, and you will have a full schrship. In addition, you can directlyplete thebined undergraduate¡ªmaster¡ªdoctor program, and work at Braxton University after graduation...¡± All the principals offered the best conditions to Cassandra, They all hoped that Cassandra could choose their universities. ¡°| already have a choice. Thank you for your kindness, Sirs. | choose Juset University,¡± Cassandra said. Except for the principal of Juset University, Henry Wilson, who smiled brightly, other principals were extremely disappointed. Dreame Chapter 142 s! Juset University won this year¡¯s top student again. Well, there were two more students who got more than 1560 scores. The principal of Braxton University reacted quickly and immediately called the admission office to ask them to contact those two students. However, Henry seemed to be calm. The most outstanding student had promised toe to Juset University, which was the biggest gain he got this year. After the other principals left, Henry couldn¡¯t stop smiling. He said with a smile, ¡°Cassandra, an old man asked me to tell you that he has prepared the thing you want!¡± This was Henry¡¯sst trump card. The old man told Henry if Cassandra had the idea of going to another university, Henry should say this sentence, and Cassandra would definitely go to Juset University. when she heard it.. However, before Henry said it, Cassandra agreed toe to Juset University directly. Hearing Henry¡¯s words, Cassandra was stunned for a moment and then chuckled, saying, ¡°Okay.¡± After the SAT scores came out, Cassandra''s score was on the trending list. The news was posted everywhere in Xemrich High School, and the news was yed on all the LED screens in the school. Cassandra got 1598 points! It was the highest score in the school¡¯s history. Even in the whole country, it was also the highest achievement in recent years. Cassandra was such an excellent student, so everyone should know how extraordinary she was. She deserved to be known by everyone. Those students who had bullied Cassandra should know how good she was. Even Keh knew about it. He prepared flowers and congrattory gifts before he went to Springmount Townhouse to find Cassandra. Dreame 10:22 Mon, 26 Feb G Chapter 1 The Yates family also got the news. 9.77% Frederick was facing the risk of contract termination. During this period, he hadn¡¯t gotten any work, so he was basically banned from the industry. When he checked Twitter, he found that Cassandra got the highest SAT score in the Countr How was that possible? How could Cassandra get such a high score? Miranda had been discharged from the hospital. As soon as she was discharged, she went to see Yulissa in detention. Seeing Yulissa¡¯s haggard appearance, Miranda felt distressed and said, ¡°Lisa, you must have suffered a lot!¡± When Yulissa saw Miranda, she was like seeing her life-savior. ¡°Mom, help me! | don¡¯t want to go to jail or be sentenced!¡± Yulissa said. ¡°Okay. I''ll save you. But how can | save you?¡± Miranda asked. SEND GIFT Chapter 143 Chapter 143 Yulissa was very anxious and nervous. She didn¡¯t want to stay here. She couldn''t figure out why she had been arrested again. ¡°Go find Cassandra and tell her to let me go!¡± Yulissa said. This ce was so terrible that Yulissa couldn''t stand it anymore. Miranda was very sad and cried, ¡°She won''t listen to me at all. She is an ungrateful girl.¡± The thought of Cassandra made Miranda grit her teeth. Miranda cursed in her heart, ¡®Damn girl! You little bitch! How dare you trap Lisa! | won¡¯t let you go, Cassandra Yates!" ¡°No, you are her mother. She won''t disobey you. Mom, please help me. | don¡¯t want to stay here. It¡¯s too scary!¡± Yulissa was desperate. Yulissa knew that Cassandra hated her. However, Miranda was on Yulissa¡¯s side, so Yulissa would always be the winner. Yulissa had six brothers. Even if two of them were missing, it didn¡¯t matter. Miranda was about to break down. She spent so much money on saving Yulissa, but the money all went into Cassandra¡¯s pocket. Now, Miranda still needed Cassandra to save Yulissa. Could Cassandra help them? Miranda thought, ¡®No, I''ll let Cassandra let Lisa go whether she wants to or not! At the worst, | will... At the worst, | won''t be mean to Cassandra anymore. As long as she can let Lisa go, | can do anything. Miranda said, ¡°Lisa, don¡¯t worry. | won¡¯t let anything happen to you. Trust me. No matter what you do, you will always be my baby!¡± Miranda''s words touched Yulissa, but not much. Yulissa only wanted to leave this ce now and didn¡¯t have time to show her love to Miranda. She might as well talk about it later. Mirandaforted Yulissa for a long time. Suddenly, Yulissa remembered her SAT Score. ¡°Mom, go back and help me check my SAT score. | should be able to enter Juset Chapter 143 University,¡± said Yulissa. Yulissa might have forgotten that she didn¡¯t finish her literature paper. She was even too flustered that day and didn¡¯t do well in math in the afternoon. However, Yulissa thought that since she had always been in the top five students in school, she could enter Juset University. Yulissa¡¯s words were undoubtedly good news for Miranda. As long as Yulissa could enter Juset University, Benjamin would definitely forgive Yulissa and Miranda. Miranda thought, ¡°That¡¯s right. As long as Yulissa can go to Juset University, then everything else will be fine! Miranda said, ¡°Okay, I''ll check it for you when | get back!¡± Cassandra saw Henry off and called Jeremiah toe over. ¡°Congrattions, the top SAT schr!¡± Jeremiah teased. Jeremiah smiled and handed the gift to Cassandra. Cassandra took it naturally, with no expression on her face. It seemed that she was used to such things and didn¡¯t think it deserved to be congratted. ¡°Find someone to get the hair of Miranda and Benjamin. I''ll do another DNA test with them, Cassandra said. The reason why Cassandra believed the DNA test report provided by Benjamin was that she found them in advance, and she did a test with Benjamin to confirm their father- daughter rtionship. However, Cassandra had never doubted Miranda¡¯s identity. Now she began to suspect whether Miranda was her biological mother. Ever since Cassandra saw Miranda in the hospital, she had been suspicious. Jeremiah felt that something was wrong. Why did Cassandra want to take the DNA test. again? So he asked, ¡°ine, are you suspecting anything?¡± Cassandra smiled slightly and said in a cold tone, ¡°Don¡¯t you think Miranda has treated 2/5 Dreame 10:22 Mon, 26 Feb Chapter 143 Yulissa too nicely?¡± Although Benjamin loved Yulissa, when he knew that Miranda had spent all his money to save Yulissa, he beat Miranda hard. That was the reaction of a normal person when in such a situation. However, Miranda gave the money without thinking twice. She even felt that it was not a big deal. Miranda and Benjamin were unwilling to spend a penny on treating Raymond''s hand. If they were, Raymond¡¯s hand would have been cured long ago, but Miranda just agreed to what Benjamin did. How could a mother who treated her own son like that be so good to her adopted daughter? There must be a reason. Cassandra said, ¡°Send someone to the detention center and take Yulissa¡¯s hair out for a DNA test with Miranda and Benjamin.¡± Her guess must be confirmed. Jeremiah said, ¡°OK, no problem. But what are you going to do if it is confirmed that you have nothing to do with the Yates family or only one of them?¡± Jeremiah¡¯s worry was reasonable. If Cassandra had nothing to do with the Yates family, they were free to treat a stranger no matter what they wanted. Since Cassandra also hated them, she could take action quickly without mercy. However, if Cassandra was only rted to Benjamin or Miranda, Cassandra must be an illegitimate child. How could Cassandra face it? Cassandra answered, ¡°No matter what the result is, they will only end up in one ce.¡± The ending would be the same. Cassandra just wanted to confirm her guess. Cassandra had already died once, and she would not let the tragedy of her previous life happen again. Even if there were many things in her previous life that she hadn¡¯t experienced in this life, it didn¡¯t matter. Cassandra would let them happen one by one. Cassandra wouldn¡¯t take the first attack. When they attacked, she would shatter their Dreame 10:22 Mon, 26 Feb G Chapter 143 pride, which would be revenge. 76% In Cassandra¡¯s previous life, she was overwhelmed by public opinion. In this life, the public opinion had to stand beside her. Jeremiah said, ¡°Okay, | see. Leave it to me. We''ll get the result in three days!¡± ¡°Okay,¡± Cassandra said. Jeremiah took Cassandra¡¯s hair and did what she told him to do. Suddenly, Cassandra¡¯s phone rang. It was Keh. She picked up the phone and heard Keh¡¯s pleasant voice. ¡°Cass, do you have time now?¡± Cassandra said, ¡°Yes, | do. What¡¯s the matter?¡± ¡°I need your technical help. Is it okay with you?¡± Keh asked. ¡°Sure. Send me the address.¡± Cassandra agreed directly. ¡°Just wait for me at home. I''lle and pick you up!¡± Keh said. In fact, Keh was already on his way back to Springmount Townhouse. This matter was a little tricky, and Keh didn¡¯t want to bother Cassandra unless he had to. Cassandra replied, ¡°OK.¡± Keh needed technical help, so Cassandra guessed it was something that Emery had to solve. Cassandra didn¡¯t think Keh knew more about her identities. ine and Samantha were not in the business of Keh¡¯spany, so maybe there was something wrong with her Falcon Special Operations Force base. Cassandra prepared herptop which she often used and walked directly to the gate of Springmount Townhouse, waiting for Keh to pick her up. Not far away, Keh saw Cassandra and hastened to her side. However, Miranda arrived at the same time.? 2024 N?v/el/Dram/a.Org. Mon, 26 Feb Chapter 143 76% ¡°Cassandra, stop! You bitch! How dare you harm Lisa? You must get her out!¡± Miranda shouted. At the same time, Miranda rushed towards Cassandra. Even the security guards couldn''t stand it anymore. The Yates family was looking for trouble with Cassandra every day. They were really persistent. Keh¡¯s face darkened when he saw Miranda. It seemed that the previous lesson was not enough. Keh said, ¡°Cass, do you need me to help you deal with her?¡± Cassandra said, ¡°Do not worry. She cannot cause trouble for long. Let us address your business matters first.¡± 3/5 Chapter 144 Chapter 144 Keh nodded and ignored¡ªMiranda¡¯s words. Cassandra didn¡¯t want to waste time with Miranda. She just warned, ¡°If you want your daughter to get a heavier sentence,e and have a try.¡± Then Cassandra got into Keh¡¯s car. Miranda stood there in the car exhaust. Miranda cursed behind the car, but no one paid any attention to her anymore. On the way, Cassandra asked, ¡°What happened? Why did you ask for my help?¡± She wondered how tough the problem would be. Keh said, ¡°The defense system of the Falcon Special Operations Force Base was attacked, and my men couldn¡¯t stand it. It would take too long to get approval from the information security department at all levels, so | came directly to you.¡± The defense system of the Falcon Special Operations Force was built independently and was not operated or maintained by any department or agency. This time, the Falcon Special Operations Force suffered an unprecedented attack. Keh¡¯s men couldn¡¯t solve it at all. Although they could hold on, they wouldn¡¯tst long. Keh had no choice but toe to Cassandra. He could get an approvalter. However, it was the same whether to report it or not. Cassandra was a free individual and she had the right to do anything except for being responsible for the information security department. Cassandra said, ¡°Then go and have a look first.¡± Cassandra looked a little solemn. It seemed that the problem was not simple. Upon arrival at the base, Cassandra was astonished by the secret location of the ce. She was unsure whether it was marked on the map. There was such arge base in Drieso where each parcel ofnd was exceedingly costly. Keh took Cassandra to the information security department. Everyone there was busy. 1/15 76% 10:22 Mon, 26 Feb u G Chapter 144 They were all men who sometimes cursed when encountering things that could not be solved easily.

Somebody help me! Help me!¡± Cassandra felt surprised. On such a serious asion, they were obviously nervous and scared to death. But for no reason, their words sounded amusing. Cassandra didn¡¯t say anything. She sat down directly, turned on herptop, and began to study the area being attacked. In just a minute, Cassandra found the problem. The system was attacked by an unknown organization, and a newputer virus was released. These people had never known or seen it before, so they couldn''t fight against it at all. They must have struggled for a long time. Their eyes were full of bloodshot, and they looked tired. Cassandra didn¡¯t say anything and silently joined the battle. She checked the current. defense. If Keh came to her two hours later, the system of Falcon Special Operations Force would bepletely breached. At that time, all the information and strategies of Falcon Special Operations Force would be released. By then, everyone in Falcon Special Operations Force might be in danger. Cassandra began to fight back and drove the virus away. At the same time, the damaged area was being repaired. Everyone else was stunned. They seemed to have seen a chance of life. Did they seed in defending the system? However, someone saw a girl sitting next to Keh. She sat expressionless in front of theptop and was typing on the keyboard quickly. They were all stunned. 2/5 10:22 Mon, 26 Feb Chapter 144 For a moment, they forgot their work.N?velDrama.Org is the owner. Suddenly, Cassandra¡¯s face darkened as if she was going to lose her temper. Then she shouted, ¡°What are you looking at? Keep your hands moving!¡± Cassandra directed them and she attacked. They were responsible for clearing thest obstacles and repairing the system. Only a counterattack could eliminate the virus, and defense was useless. After all, the firewall of Falcon Special Operations Force was not very strong. Cassandra¡¯s face was serious, and Keh could not help but be nervous. Her fingertips were typing on the keyboard quickly. Countless codes flooded in, and Cassandra¡¯s eyes scanned quickly, screening, filtering, and searching for the virus. Although Keh didn¡¯t know anything about hacking, he had led the team for so long. Even if he couldn''t do it, he could understand clearly what was going on. The system was now slowly recovering, and even the virus should be destroyed by Cassandra soon. Cassandra had solved the problem that couldn¡¯t be handled by so many people for so many days. Keh was again amazed by Cassandra¡¯s strength. At this time, Cassandra was sitting in front of theputer, and her beautiful eyes were full of indifference. She seemed to be more indifferent than before. At this moment, she was no longer Cassandra but Emery. In the early hours of the morning, the virus disappeared and the system was repaired. Cassandra even upgraded the Falcon Special Operations Force¡¯s firewall at thest minute. She said, ¡°With the firewall, if the Falcon Special Operations Force system is breached, you must be fired.¡± Everyone was shocked. Although they were very excited now, Cassandra¡¯s words seemed to be too cruel. 76% 10:22 Mon, 26 Feb Chapter 144 She made them feel embarrassed, or even useless. However, they had worked hard for a week and were about to die here.. The technicians thought they should beforted and felt aggrieved. Cassandra ignored them and closed herputer. ¡°It¡¯s done,¡± she said. [That''s awesome!] [I feel like | almost died!] [Me too. | was driven mad! Who are these people?*] Keh secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He looked at Cassandra and said gratefully, ¡°Thank you, Cassandra.¡± ¡°By the way, | found the person responsible for infiltrating your system with the virus. Could you dispatch someone to catch him?¡± The recollection dawned on Cassandra as she informed Keh. The technicians¡¯ distressed cries and grievances had sparked Cassandra¡¯s memory of capturing the perpetrator of the virus. ¡°Okay, send me the address and person. I''ll send someone to catch him now.¡± Keh looked at Cassandra distressedly. He thought she must be exhausted after such an intensive task. However, Cassandra tried to catch the hacker. Keh was deeply moved. If given the chance, he would love to reunite with Cassandra at this moment. Cassandra sent the information and IP address to Keh, who turned around and handed it to Yannick. ¡°Bring this person back now,¡± Keh ordered. Since the hacker had failed, it meant that he might escape at any time. If he ran away, what Cassandra had done would be in vain. Cassandra remained in her seat, unwilling to rise, as she was acutely aware of her intense hunger and the effects of low blood sugar, which left her feeling slightly nauseous. Keh said softly, ¡°I¡¯ve prepared food for you. Would you like to have some?¡± Cassandra nodded and then shook her head. ¡°I would like to go as well, but I¡¯m feeling a Chapter 144 x76% bit hypoglycemic. | dare not get up,¡± she said. It would be so embarrassing if Cassandra fainted in front of so many people. Keh was stunned and felt a little distressed. Then he said, ¡°Then Ill hold you to dinner. Cassandra had met the principals in the morning and was harassed by Miranda. Then she had been working for so long. She was too tired. Keh secretly med himself for his carelessness. He had thought that Cassandra could rest in the middle and continue after a break. However, Cassandra didn¡¯t have a rest until she kept working for eight hours. At this time, Cassandra¡¯s lips were already pale. ¡°Okay,¡± she replied. Cassandra felt a little embarrassed. She was in such good health, but she had hypoglycemia and would faint if she didn¡¯t cat on time. Cassandra thought that this was her most significant drawback. In Keh¡¯s office, Keh filled a bowl of soup first and said, ¡°Have some soup first.¡± SEND GIFT Chapter 145 Chapter 145 EK:76% RK S:15% As it was toote, after Cassandra finished her meal, Keh took her to the room he had arranged. Cassandra would rest on the base today and go home tomorrow. Cassandra and Keh didn¡¯t know that Miranda had waited for eight hours in Springmount Townhouse before she left. When Miranda left, she kept cursing Cassandra. Miranda was helpless. It seemed that she could only ask one person for help. If Yulissa couldn''t be released soon, Miranda might lose her. Early the next morning, Miranda excused herself to go out to see her friends and to Fallvale Mansion. went It had been 18 years since Mirandast came to Fallvale Mansion. Everything was still the same as before, but Miranda wondered whether the people inside were still those she knew. ¡°Ding!¡± Miranda rang the doorbell.. Awoman in a maid¡¯s uniform came to open the door and said respectfully, ¡°Madam, who are you looking for?¡± Miranda nced at the maid and said, ¡°I¡¯m looking for Ewan Perry. Is he home?¡± The maid was stunned and asked, ¡°May | ask what your name is? I''ll go inform Mr. Perry.¡± ¡°Miranda. He knows me,¡± Miranda replied. Over the past 18 years, Ewan has remained unmarried and single. Nheless, he chose to adopt a son to provide companionship and care during his elderly years. Ewan had a daughter. How could he need someone to take care of him in his old age and upy his family property? After a while, the maid came back and opened the door respectfully. ¡°Ma¡¯am, please come in.¡± Miranda stayed in the house for three hours. She was happy when she left.

Since they were all home, who was with Benjamin in the hospital! Leonardo stood up and asked. ¡°Mom, where have you been this morning¡± Although Miranda¡¯s face was still full of sadness, Leonardo could tell whether she was happy or not. Leonardo couldn¡¯t help but wonder who on earth could be so charming Miranda was a little embarraved. She didn¡¯t expect that her wins would find it out. She had thought she hid her emotions well. So she admitted it directly. ¡°Yulissa will be saved and won''t go to jail¡± ¡°Really?¡± Frederick, Jasper, and Matthew all asked in union Only Leonardo frowned and said with disapproval, ¡°She did something wrong. Didn¡¯t she deserve to be punished!

She has made many mistakes and should be punished?¡± Suddenly, Miranda pped Leonardo in the face. Although Miranda was a little stunned by what she had done, she didn¡¯t regret the p. ¡°Leonardo, how could you say so? Lisa is your favorite sister. How could you say such cruel words?¡± Miranda said in anger. Cruel? Leonardo didn¡¯t think so. Miranda¡¯s p didn¡¯t make Leonardo change his mind but made him more sober.

Of course, you have to take care of him!¡± Miranda would never take care of Benjamin by herself. ¡°He is your husband. Don¡¯t you care about him?¡± Leonardo asked.

Without you, we don¡¯t know what consequences our system would face.¡± The consequences were immeasurable. Keh had been ready to destroy the basic information of all his members for fear that it would fall into the hands of the enemy. However, Keh didn¡¯t expect that Cassandra would be his savior.

Jeremiah had been waiting for Cassandra at Springmount Townhouse. He carried out the task after he received Cassandra¡¯s order yesterday. It was easy to get Benjamin¡¯s hair. No one was there to take care of Benjamin in the ward, so Jeremiah coulde and go freely. Then Jeremiah asked someone to steal Miranda¡¯s hair. As for Yulissa, she was still in a separate room in the detention center. There was her hair on herb, so Jeremiah just needed to get theb. Cassandra thought it would take three days, but Jeremiah handled it in just one day. Seeing Jeremiah, Cassandra raised her eyebrow and asked calmly, ¡°Has the test report. come out?¡± ¡°It''s out. I¡¯m really surprised! You are Benjamin¡¯s child, but you have nothing to do with Miranda, Yulissa is Miranda¡¯s child, but she has nothing to do with Benjamin,¡± Jeremiah said mysteriously. What a family! It turned out that Cassandra and Yulissa weren''t sisters. Chapter 145 26 Feb It was all Benjamin¡¯s fault! The result seemed to be what Cassandra had expected. After all, Cassandra knew best that Benjamin was her father because she had done the DNA test with him. However, Cassandra ignored Miranda and naturally thought that Miranda was her biological mother. Well, what an irony! Cassandra and Yulissa were both illegitimate children. However, Yulissa knew that her mother was Miranda. What about Cassandra? Was her mother dead or disabled? Cassandra cursed in her heart, ¡°The Yateses, you all deserve to die!¡± 575 Chapter 146 Chapter 146 Cassandra was happy when she learned that Miranda was not her biological mother, and meanwhile, she thought it would be great if Benjamin weren''t her biological father.

Upset, Cassandra began to rub her forehead. ¡°Find out who Yulissa¡¯s biological father is.¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t want anything unexpected to happen. If Yulissa¡¯s biological father was an ordinary person, no matter how hard he tried, he wouldn¡¯t make any change. If Yulissa¡¯s biological father was powerful, he would soon help Yulissa out even if Yulissa was sentenced. If that happened, what Cassandra had done would be to no avail! Jeremiah nced at Cassandra and said, ¡°I have thought about that and have already asked someone to investigate it. We will have a result in two days.¡± ¡°ine, | always felt that Benjamin is not your biological father. He is mean, sharp- tongued, and shameless.

If it weren¡¯t for her yearning for family affection, she would not have left Lucas and Sylvia and returned to the Yates family.

Jeremiah thought ine would feel relieved if she was unrted to the Yates family. Unfortunately, the DNA test showed that Benjamin was ine¡¯s biological father. ¡°The results won''t be fake. We tested twice. Let¡¯s talk about itter. Please help me find out who Benjamin had an affair with before.¡± ine couldn¡¯t change the fact that she was Benjamin¡¯s daughter.

Her total scores just passed 1,000! We can get better scores even if we attend the test now. Miranda was in a good mood and even proud. ¡°She must get at least 1,500 points, right?¡± Jasper was a little speechless because of his mother¡¯s smug look. He didn¡¯t know whether he had been influenced by Leonardo or not, and he grew impatient and dissatisfied with Yulissa now. ¡°Mom, Lisa still needs about 500 scores if she wants to be admitted by Juset University.

They may input the information about the students wrongly at first, but they won''t wrongly input the scores.¡± Jasper was a straight-A student. Actually, his brothers and sisters all had good academic performance. Another reason why Jasper looked down on Cassandra at the beginning was that Cassandra came from the countryside and had poor academic performance. Therefore, Jasper thought Cassandra was not qualified to be his sister. But now, Jasper felt so embarrassed when he found that his favorite sister only got 1,008 points on the SAT. Jasper then asked out of curiosity. ¡°How many points did Cassandra get?¡± Frederick''s expression changed, not knowing if he should speak out Cassandra¡¯s score. He said in the end, ¡°She got 1,582 points in total.¡± Everyone present was shocked. ¡°It is close to full marks, isn¡¯t it?¡± Jasper thought in shock, ¡®How could this be possible?

Looking at the scenery outside, Cassandra could tell they were heading to the suburbs. On arrival at a building, Cassandra was sure that they were in the suburbs! There was only one building in front of them. It was a three-story building and was mixed with styles of architecture in Ounca! It looked good and was surrounded by lush woods, like a building hidden in nature or a restaurant in the park. Cassandra was attracted by the scenery in front of her. It had to be said that it was very beautiful there, and even the buildings in front of herplemented the surrounding trees and flowers. Cassandra thought it would look even better if there were no car parking there. ¡°Are we going to have dinner here?¡± There was a hint of delight in Cassandra¡¯s tone! ¡°Yes, go in and have a look. You''ll like it!¡± Keh smiled and showed Cassandra the way. After it was time for dinner, there were quite a lot of people. But there were still unupied tables.

Do you still want your usual table?¡± When the receptionist saw Keh, he immediately greeted Keh respectfully! He was the one who received Keh every time, but this time it was different. In the past, Keh came alone or came with his brother, but this time Keh came with a little girl who didn¡¯t seem to be 18 years old! ¡°Yes. Cassandra thought to herself, ¡®It seems that Keh often eats here. Everyone knows him! But it makes sense. After all, he would only eat good food.

Keh smiled and thought, ¡®I have to take more chances to invite Cass here to dinner with me in the future. Since Cass likes the food here, | can consider giving more tipster.

People like Keh didn¡¯t take the initiative to discover a good restaurant, so she asked, ¡°Keh, how did you find this ce?¡± Keh put down the fork in his hand, picked up a napkin beside him, and wiped his mouth. ¡°This restaurant is owned by Kayden. | was forced to have food here. | came twice and found the food here is delicious.

Over time, this restaurant gained a firm foothold in Drieso. Once upon a time, there was always a long queue waiting for a chance to have dinner there. Kayden didn¡¯t want guests to wait so long every time they came there. So Kayden made a change. Every day, there were 20 tables avable for service at noon and 30 tables avable for service at night.

Keh found that as long as Cassandra got the answers she wanted to know, she would say very little then. Keh didn¡¯t know what else he could talk with Cassandra Keh had never been alone with girls in a ce, so when he stayed with Cassandra, there would always be an embarrassing silence. ¡°| heard from Mr. Hathaway that he is going to hold a graduation party for you?¡± Keh found a topic to chat with Cassandra. Keh didn¡¯t want that embarrassing silence. Cassandra raised her eyebrows and asked in surprise. ¡°How do you know that?¡± Keh turned on his phone and handed it to Cassandra. Cassandra then saw an email on Keh¡¯s phone. It was an invitation from Lucas, asking Keh to attend Cassandra¡¯s graduation party. ¡°Keh, thank you for taking care of Cassie in Drieso. | specially invite you to Cassandra¡¯s graduation party three dayster After that, there was a short description of Cassandra''s performance on the SAT. Cassandra seemed to be able to see the pride in Lucas¡¯s eyes. Cassandra was a little embarrassed. She returned the phone to Keh and said, ¡°Sorry, | didn¡¯t expect Lucas to be so exaggerated. Keh put his phone on the table, smiled gently, and said in a slightly rxed tone. ¡°It¡¯s not exaggerating. If it were me, | would probably tell the whole world.

They didn¡¯t mention the specific time of the party. Cassandra thought, | just came out for dinner, but they have already set the time for the party?* Keh was amused by Cassandra¡¯s puzzled look. He had seen many traits of Cassandra¡¯s character, including the cold¡ª blooded side, the decisive side when dealing with the Yates family, the serious side as Emery, and the usually indifferent side.. It was the first time Keh had seen such a confused and puzzled look on Cassandra¡¯s face. Keh was a little surprised. His heart softened. ¡°I guess Mr. Hathaway wants to do it as soon as possible. Your admission letter will arrive soon so that he can show off better at that time.¡± Cassandra was speechless. Cassandra thought, They are exaggerated. They don¡¯t have to do so. ¡°Don¡¯t make fun of me. Cassandra couldn''t understand Lucas¡¯s exaggerated behavior. Keh, however, was very understanding and supportive of Lucas. Lucas wanted to show the Yates family how excellent the daughter they abandoned was. He wanted to show that the child the Yates family abandoned was the most dazzling one in Drieso and even the whole country. Lucas wanted the Yates family to regret what they had done. In Yates residence, Miranda¡¯s back from the detention center. Miranda had told Yulissa the scores Yulissa got, but Yulissa couldn¡¯t ept the scores at all.

Therefore, she didn¡¯t believe that she only got such a low score and thought that the College Board must have made a mistake when inputting her scores. Yulissa broke down and cried when Miranda told her about the papers she had examined at the office of the College Board. Miranda couldn¡¯t remember what Yulissa said. All she knew was that Yulissa said. ¡°Mom. please help me out of here. | want to go to Juset University. My life can¡¯t be ruined like this.¡± Miranda went home with a sad face and didn¡¯t know what had happened on the Inte. When she saw Frederick, she took Frederick''s hand and pleaded. ¡°Fred, find a way to help your sister. You have been in showbiz for so many years. There must be a way, right? Find a way to let your sister be admitted to Juset University!¡± Frederick felt that his mother had lost her reason, He said in an impatient tone, ¡°Mom, even if Lisa can get out of the detention center, she won''t be able to be admitted to Juset University. Her scores have been exposed, and what you said at the office of the College Board has all been exposed online. Juset University has issued a statement that it will hold you ountable for spreading rumors and will not allow Lisa to go to Juset University. Miranda¡¯s face turned pale as if she had been struck by lightning. She thought in shock, ¡®How could this happen?¡± ¡°It is impossible. It will ruin Lisa, isn¡¯t it?¡± Recently, thepany that had been supporting Frederick all these years was talking about the termination of the contract with Frederick, which had be a big problem for Frederick. He had no time to care about what happened at home at all. He said. ¡°Mom, tell me honestly whether Lisa hired someone to hit Cassandra.¡± Frederick used to believe that it had nothing to do with Yulissa because of his understanding of Yulissa¡¯s character, but he began to doubt it now. Since the court said that it would give a sentence another day. Frederick thought the court must have gotten conclusive evidence. Yulissa, however, always said that she was innocent, even her mother thought so. Frederick thought, ¡®So who should he believe?¡± Miranda¡¯s expression looked a little unnatural. She avoided eye contact with Frederick. ¡°Fred, don¡¯t you believe in Yulissa?¡± ¡°It''s because | trusted her too much that things ended up like this. | defended her many 45 Dreame 315) 10:23 Mon, 26 Feb Chapter 149 times, damaged my image, and brought losses to thepany.

Frederick didn¡¯t expect things to go on like this. ¡°Fred, it wasn¡¯t Yulissa¡¯s fault. That whole mess, it was Cassandra who stirred it up, she¡¯s not letting it go. She wants to ruin Yulissa!¡± The more Miranda thought about it, the more convinced she became. and Frederick was shocked by Miranda¡¯s words. ¡°Mom, listen to what you said.

If she were not that lucky, she might not even have been able to take part in the SAT and even died, wouldn''t she?¡± SEND GIFT Chapter 150 Chapter 150 Miranda was heartbroken. She felt that Frederick should unite with her and think about a way to help Yulissa out instead of questioning her. She scolded Frederick harshly. ¡°What are you talking about? Lisa is your sister.

He had never expected that his mother would say such vicious words. ¡°Mom, Cassandra is your biological daughter no matter what.

At that moment, Frederick felt that his mother was strange and terrifying.N?velDrama.Org is the owner. Frederick didn¡¯t like his sister whom he hadn¡¯t seen for more than ten years, but he never wanted her to dic. At first, Frederick just didn¡¯t want Yulissa to be sad as Cassandra would take away part of their parents¡¯ attention and love. Frederick didn¡¯t understand why Yulissa, who was so kind-hearted before, had changed like that in the end. She hired a murderer to kill someone and incited bullying on the campus with her students. To incite Leonardo to deal with Cassandra back then, Yulissa even yed tricks in front of Leonardo and acted as the one who suffered a grievance. Frederick thought, ¡®What''s wrong with this family?* Miranda suddenly shouted, ¡°She¡¯s not my daughter! My daughter is Yulissa. Cassandra doesn¡¯t deserve to be my daughter at all!¡± Frederick ignored Miranda''s madness and left directly. The quarrel downstairs made it impossible for Jasper to focus on his paper. He had to revise the paper and strive to get Faye¡¯s approval as soon as possible. He knew only in this way could he return to his work. Therefore, the quarrel between his mother and Frederick greatly affected his thoughts. He said to Miranda at the railing on the second floor, ¡°Mom, can you stop quarreling? No one can change Yulissa¡¯s scores. Why don¡¯t you just ask Yulissa to study as hard as Cassandra?¡± Miranda finally realized that it was useless to quarrel there. 175 Dreame 76% Chapter 150 Jasper¡¯s words reminded Miranda that it didn¡¯t matter if Yulissa was not admitted to Juset University. Since Cassandra could be admitted to Juset University, Miranda thought she could ask Cassandra to take Yulissa to Juset University with her! Cassandra got an excellent score on the SAT. Miranda thought that Juset University would want Cassandra. This would give Cassandra the chance to bargain with Juset University. Miranda thought, ¡®Yes, | can ask Cassandra to take Lisa to go to Juset University. Anyway, Lisa has to study at Juset University!¡± After Miranda made up her mind, she prepared to go to Springmount Townhouse to wait for Cassandra. She thought, ¡®Cassandra has to agree!¡± After Keh and Cassandra finished dinner, Keh nned to send Cassandra home. Keh thought, ¡®Cass had gone through a lot these two days. She needs to have a good rest.¡¯ ¡°Let me send you back to rest first. The dark circles under your eyes are a little obvious.

The moment Cassandra saw Miranda, her face changed. Her good mood was gone in an instant. Miranda walked up to Cassandra and blocked her way. ¡°Cassie, you''re back.¡± Miranda had something to ask Cassandra for help, so the faltering smile on her face was obvious. Cassandra¡¯s face turned cold. She said coldly, ¡°What are you doing here again? You alwayse to block the way. Don¡¯t you feel you are annoying?¡± Miranda had been suppressing her anger.

She said, ¡°I really have. something to talk about with you. It¡¯s very important!¡± Yulissa¡¯s matter was the most important thing in Miranda''s heart. Keh¡¯s face darkened and became gloomy. ¡°Mrs. Yates, Cass doesn¡¯t want to talk with you.

But even so, she still smiled apologetically. ¡°Keh, long time no see! You''re here too!¡± Miranda thought, ¡®When did Cassandra get so close to Keh? By the way, it seemed that she got out of Keh¡¯s car just now. With Cassandra¡¯s rtionship with Keh, it will be easier to solve Lisa¡¯s trouble. Keh nced at Miranda sharply and said, ¡°Save those ttering words.¡± Cassandra said calmly, ¡°What do you want to say? Just say it here. | did nothing evil.

In this way, the secret can be buried forever. No one will know it.¡¯ Do you think it¡¯s wless? I¡¯ve always been curious about why you didn¡¯t directly raise Yulissa as the legitimate eldest daughter of the Yates family but went through all the trouble to find me and treat me as your child, and then you abandoned me and adopted your own daughter.¡± Cassandra¡¯s tone was cold as if she were telling a story. ¡°I didn¡¯tpletely understand why until | re-read Yulissa¡¯s information.¡± She added, ¡°Benjamin has type A blood, and you have type O, so your child can¡¯t have type B blood.

Your trick works well.¡± It could not only deal with Cassandra who had a rtionship with Benjamin, but Miranda could also raise her own daughter by her side. Cassandra had to admit that Miranda''s trick was wonderful. Miranda¡¯s face turned pale. She wondered why Cassandra knew it so well. She also wanted to know what Cassandra had investigated. ¡°What else do you know? How did you know it?¡± Miranda shouted to hide her fear. Cassandra smiled sarcastically, ¡°It¡¯s all thanks to you. Your attitude aroused my suspicion.¡± Miranda¡¯s attitude towards Cassandra was so bad as if she was Cassandra¡¯s stepmother. How could Cassandra¡¯s biological mother treat her like that? It was because Cassandra had doubts that she made up her mind to do the DNA test. Cassandra didn¡¯t expect that there would be a surprise. Miranda almost copsed. She said, ¡°What the hell do you want? The Yates family has been ruined by you. Are you not satisfied with it?

How could it be my fault?¡± Miranda was not Cassandra¡¯s biological mother, so talking back came pretty easy to her. Cassandra even thought it might be kinda cool to make Miranda so mad she¡¯d drop dead! She had never actually seen anyone get that mad. ¡°You... you... you are out of all reason.¡± Miranda pointed at Cassandra and could only say 1. it. Cassandra said, ¡°Miranda, | advise you to disappear in front of me. Otherwise, | will tell your good sons about your scandal.¡± If Miranda¡¯s sons knew that the sister they had loved for 18 years was actually the product of her mother¡¯s cheating, how would they feel? Miranda suddenly hauled down her colors and didn¡¯t dare to say anything else. She could only re at Cassandra fiercely. If Miranda¡¯s eyes could kill people, Cassandra might have been dead.

Keh let Cassandra stand behind him and said, ¡°Mrs. Yates, if youe to trouble Cass again, | will make you regret all your decisions.¡± Miranda was bluffed and didn¡¯t dare to speak.

She wouldn''t answer all the questions. It depended on her mood. Keh asked, ¡°You said Miranda is not your mother. What is the matter?¡± Cassandra secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She told Keh the whole story, including some things about the Yates family and what happened in the hospital. She told Keh everything, including her suspicions. Keh listened silently without saying anything, but he felt distressed for no reason. He knew how much Cassandra yearned for family affection.

At this time, she could not drink coffee. ¡°What do you want to know, Cass?¡± Cassandra was struggling. She didn¡¯t know whether to ask Keh or not, but she still felt that Keh was not that kind of person.

He was even praised by Yannick. Keh sat on the sofa, crossed his legs, and hit the arm of the sofa with one hand. ¡°Did you do what Yannick asked?¡± The man trembled, but he still answered honestly, ¡°Yes.¡± Keh asked, ¡°How did you get Cyrus into trouble?¡± The man thought, ¡®It turns out that it''s about this.

Although it has a new legal representative, there¡¯s nothing to be afraid of.¡± Hearing this, Yannick realized it. If he still didn¡¯t understand what had happened, then he could directly resign. Yannick thought, ¡®We just made trouble for Cyrus and kept him busy. Unexpectedly, it became trouble for the Blossom Group. ¡®It means that we brought trouble to Ms. Yates indirectly. ¡®No wonder Mr. Zelinski is so angry.

The reporter¡¯s face turned pale when he heard Yannick apologize. He knew how terrifying Keh was. But Keh paid him too much, so he was willing to work for Keh until death if he didn¡¯t need to risk his life.

I¡¯ve arranged for Yannick to solve this matter. It won¡¯t happen again.¡± Cassandra nodded. She thought. It turns out to be a misunderstanding. However, she felt that it was not as simple as a misunderstanding. The reason that he wanted to acquire Blossom Group sounded reasonable, but it was a little far-fetched. If he wanted to acquire it, he could just talk to her directly. He didn¡¯t need to have much ado. ¡°I''m going to the Whitecrane Hall. Will you go with me?¡± Keh sent out an invitation. Cassandra appeared in the Whitecrane Hall many times, and Hugo¡¯s attitude towards her was outrageously respectful. Keh always felt that there were many secrets about Cassandra.

She wondered, ¡®For the clinical trial?¡± She said, ¡°Okay, let¡¯s go together.¡± After arriving at Whitecrane Hall, Keh followed Hugo to the experimental area to watch the clinical trial.

It turned out that Miranda had left the child at the door of the orphanage with herst conscience. After the child was carried into the orphanage by the director, the child died the next day because of a fever. They didn¡¯t know about it until they found the director of the orphanage. Now that the other woman¡¯s child had died, what was Cassandra¡¯s origin? Why did she have anything to do with the Yates family? It took Cassandra a couple of minutes to sort out the matter. ¡°You mean Benjamin¡¯s child is dead? Then why am | rted to him?¡± If they were only rtives, the consanguinity test would not exceed 70% at most. However, she was 99.99% rted to Benjamin, which didn¡¯t make sense. ¡°This is what we are confused about... Jeremiah felt sorry for Cassandra. Cassandra thought that she was part of the Yates. family, but they didn¡¯t treat her well at all. However, it turned out it was a joke. She had nothing to do with the Yates family. Cassandra looked stern and her eyes were not focused, which made Keh very distressed.

Kayden didn¡¯t know what was going on, so he hurried over and found that no one was in Keh¡¯s house. He instantly got annoyed and called Keh. ¡°There is no one in your house. Are you kidding me?

Cassandra said indifferently, ¡°Mr. Yates, | want to ask if there are any people of the same age as Benjamin or girls lost in the Yates family?¡± Kayden didn¡¯t understand what she meant. He nced at Keh and wanted to know what was going on. Keh told Kayden what had happened. Kayden was dumbfounded. It was so ridiculous! ¡°| don¡¯t know much about this. | have to go back and ask my grandpa and dad. They all said that we had an uncle, but they didn¡¯t know where he was. Let''s talk about itter when | get back.¡± Kayden really had no idea about it. He had no interest in taking charge of the Yates family, so he did not know many secrets about it at all! Therefore, he was also confused when they asked! Cassandra¡¯s eyes suddenly turned dull. Although there was no expression on her face, the look in her eyes had already betrayed her. ¡°Well, if you have any news, please keep me informed.¡± Before long, Jeremiah and Kayden left.

She could live without her parents forever, but she didn¡¯t want Benjamin and Miranda to be her parents!

I¡¯m tired too. | want to hit the hay!¡± Cassandra sounded like she was in a good mood. Keh thought that maybe this was a kind of relief for Cassandra.

The business of the Zelinski family did prosper in his hand and he became the richest man in the world in just a few years. Hector knew everything that Harriet secretly did, but he kept turning a blind eye to it as long as Keh was still alive. However, he didn¡¯t expect that Harriet would cross the line this time, which made Keh fight back so fiercely. It cost Conrad¡¯s legs. It was unexpected, but it had already happened. ¡°He is your brother. Shouldn''t you help him as you are a member of our family?

Cassandra rubbed her head and frowned. ¡°Don''t do that,¡± Cassandra said. Cyrus sensed that Cassandra was obviously in a better mood than before. In the past, she would always be a little bit impatient no matter when, but today she was totally at ease. So he asked, ¡°Anything good happened?¡± ¡°Sort of,¡± she replied. Cassandra told Cyrus the news that she was not a member of the Yates. family.

Benjamin nodded excitedly. ¡°| don¡¯t have a father. My father died long ago!¡± she shouted. Her biological father, dead or not, made no difference to her. Benjamin¡¯s face turned pale, and his hands were trembling uncontrobly. <¡ª JG GGGMW Chapter 160 ¡°Cassie, |...¡± Jasper was a little impatient and said, ¡°Cassandra, can¡¯t you talk nicely? Dad came here for you. How dare you be so arrogant?¡± Jasper hated people who deliberately put on airs. He thought she was actually content but refused to say something nicer. ¡®So gross! he thought. Leonardo pushed Jasper with a gloomy face and said, ¡°Jace, mind your words.¡± So Jasper stopped talking. Cassandra sneered and said, ¡°I had no parents for the first 18 years of my life and | don¡¯t need them for the next 80 years either. You guys just took yourselves too seriously.¡± It didn¡¯t sound very harsh actually, but it was already a huge blow to Benjamin. Benjamin was so disturbed that he almost fell down. Fortunately, Jasper grabbed him. That was why Leonardo also brought Jasper here. ¡°Cassie,e on, please. | know | made a mistake. | will make it up to you!¡± Benjamin seemed to be regretful. However, Cassandra was not moved at all. ¡°Make up to me? With what? The house left in the Yates family or your remaining money? If so, just save it. | earn more than the value of your house. You have nothing topensate me.¡± That was the truth. The market price of the Yates residence was merely 200 million dors now, but Cassandra earned much more than that in a single month. Her monthly ie could be as much as ten times or twenty times the price of the house. 17:21 Chepney M ¡°Cassandra, why are you so obsessed with money? You''re only 18 years old but with an unmatched strong desire for money. You still got plenty of time to be rich, you know that?¡± Jasper couldn''t help retorting. Sure enough, she¡¯s far from being a realdy. Even if she is the top scorer in the national SAT, she¡¯s still so vulgar, Jasper thought. ¡°Jasper, if you continue talking like this, go back!¡± Leonardo threatened him. ¡°What a disgrace. It was a mistake to let hime, Leonardo thought to himself. ¡°Mr. Jasper Yates was right. | might be desiring money, but look at you! A total loser with no money and was suspended by the hospital. How dare you talk to me like that?¡± Cassandra chuckled and continued, ¡°What? You don¡¯t itch anymore now? You think you''ve recovered, don¡¯t you? Just wait. You''ll know how it feelster!¡± When Cassandra saw Jasper, she had prepared a needle. However, it was not an ordinary needle. Cassandra smeared it with the drug she had developed before. It could intensify people¡¯s pain ten times. This was the drug Jasper used on her in her previous life. The pain she suffered had been intensified many times because of this drug, so this time, she would let him know how it felt. Quickly, a needle was stuck into Jasper¡¯s skin.Content ? provided by N?velDrama.Org. He felt the pain, and then he pulled out the needle fiercely, threw it on the ground, and said, ¡°Cassandra, you are such a devil! | just said a few words, but you took a needle to stab me! Do you want me to die?!¡± ¡°If you think so, | have nothing to say. Cassandra looked at Benjamin and said, ¡°Mr. Yates, you said | was your JBBBBM Chapter 160 daughter, then why did | show up in the countryside? You know that | am your first love¡¯s daughter and now youe to show me how regretful you are, but where were you before? When you thought | was Miranda¡¯s daughter, what did you do? Stop pretending to be a good father and acting regretfully. If you do feel sorry, you might as well kill yourself topensate me!¡± Hearing this, Benjamin fainted. Cassandra raised her brows and nced at him lying on the ground. She thought, ¡®If he wakes up again, he''ll probably be hemiplegic. ¡°You want to divorce Miranda? ¡®No way! You two will be tied together and torture each other forever to death!¡± Cassandra ignored them and drove directly to Whitecrane Hall. Hugo hurriedly greeted her, ¡°Ms. Yates, the clinical results are avable now. The second round started two days before the third round, but the data of the third round is also good at present.¡± Keh didn¡¯t understand what was going on. ¡®Why did Hugo show Cass the clinical experiment data? ¡®| don¡¯t mean to look down on Cass, but it¡¯s medicine. Does she know medicine too? Judging from Hugo¡¯s attitude to Cass, it seems that he is a little too respectful to her. ¡®Could it be that... Cass is Dr. Quirke?¡® he thought. Looking at Cassandra''s serious look, he was more and more convinced of this idea. ¡°Cass, what do you think about the effect?¡± Keh asked. BBBBM M Chapter 160 For Keh, these two medicines had been qualified. As long as they could cure hisrades, the money he spent was worth it. ¡°The effect is not bad. They have met your requirements, haven¡¯t they?¡± ¡®Pm right. She¡¯s Dr. Quirke!¡® Keh thought. Chatper 161 Chapter 161 In the hospital, the Yates family was in an uproar. Benjamin fainted again. The doctor said that he couldn''t risk fainting again. Even if he woke up. again, he would have hemiplegia. His children were worried sick and waiting outside the emergency room anxiously. Miranda also came at this time. She hid in the hotel these days and didn¡¯t dare to go home until Leonardo called her over. She felt kind of lucky that Benjamin wouldn''t divorce her in that condition! ¡°Leo, what''s going on?¡± Her worried look made Leonardo unable to refuse her. ¡°Dad fainted again. The doctor is racing to save his life. I¡¯m afraid he will not wake up in a short time!¡± Leonardo replied, closing his eyes helplessly. Benjamin was in grave danger. The Yates family didn¡¯t know what to do now. Miranda could barely stand when she heard the news. She thought, ¡®Benjamin couldn''t wake up in a short time. What does that mean? Could it be that he could nevere out of a coma? What the hell am | gonna do now? What about Lisa?* While they were waiting anxiously, Yohannes came in a hurry! ¡°Leo, something happened to Ray. Come on over here!¡± ¡°What?¡± Leonardo was shocked. Ray hadn¡¯t shown up for several days! A&BBBGNN Chapter 161 Jasper asked before everyone else could react, ¡°What happened to him?¡± ¡°H-He broke his hands again!¡± Yohannes replied, feeling a little desperate. Ray was supposed to be fully recovered and in high spirits! Why did he end up like this? Why did he break his hands again? ¡°I''ll go and check him out with you!¡± Leonardo said. ¡°| want to go, too!¡± Jasper echoed. Atst, Leonardo and Jasper went to see Raymond. However, Benjamin still needed someone to take care of him. Therefore, Frederick, Matthew, and Miranda were left to wait there! Raymond had just been moved to the ward from the emergency room. ¡°What the hell is going on?¡± Why did Raymond''s face also get hurt in addition to his hands? What the hell was he doing these days? ¡°Ray hasn''t been home in a long time since he fell out with Mom in the hospital. Four hours earlier, someone from his boxing club called me!¡± Yohannes replied, ncing at his watch and estimating the time. ¡°What did the person say?¡± Leonardo asked, looking sillen. Yohannes didn¡¯t know what he was thinking. ¡°He told me that Ray had been requesting to fight in matches every daytely. He also had a match this morning, but he suddenly fell to the ground when he was on the field two minutester,¡± Yohannes replied. He became very anxious. It was not easy for Raymond¡¯s hands to recover. They had nothing to offer Faye to cure Raymond¡¯s hands again. Chapter 161 ¡°Let''s talk about it when he wakes up!¡± Leonardo said vaguely. Jasper examined Raymond quickly! Two hourster, Raymond woke up from hisa. He felt a sharp pain in his hands and his face! He was hospitalized again!N?velDrama.Org is the owner. Were his hands disabled? ¡°Ray, you''re awake. I''ll call the doctor over!¡± Yohannes said excitedly! Leonardo also came over and asked with concern, ¡°How are you feeling now? Are you feeling better?¡± Raymond smiled bitterly. ¡°Leo, do | still have a chance to recover my hands?¡± Faye used to tell him not to box again, especially those violent sports. even However, he didn¡¯t listen to her. He boxed in a match for a week! Now, his chickens hade home to roost! ¡°Ray, don¡¯t worry. You will get well!¡± Leonardo helped to elevate the head of Raymond''s bed. ¡°Seriously? Will | get well? Will Dad and Mom want me to get well?¡± Raymond sneered. Leonardo was stunned for a moment. It seemed that Raymond had been deeply hurt by what happened previously! ¡°What nonsense are you talking about? Of course, Mom and Dad want you to get well,¡± he replied. ¡°If they want me to get well, why don¡¯t they pay for my medicine and have COBeBBU Chapter 161 Dr. Quirke treat my hands? However, they are willing to pay 7 billion dors for Yulissa. Is this how they wish me well? Raymond said sarcastically. He thought, I¡¯m their biological son, but Yulissa is just their adopted daughter. Why do they treat her much better than me? ¡°Ray, the Yates family doesn¡¯t have too much money now!¡± Leonardo exined. It was the truth. Even if theybined everyone¡¯s money in the Yates family, they couldn¡¯t scrape together 400 million dors. Not to mention that their father fainted again! It was a very tough situation! 17:22 ¡°Leo, you don¡¯t have to exin. Of course, | understand!¡± Raymond said, turning his head away from Leo. Yohannes brought a doctor to check on Raymond! ¡°Don''t think about anything, just rest, the doctor said. It meant that they could do nothing to help treat Raymond¡¯s hands. Raymond closed his eyes in despair! ¡°Yohan, can you take me to Cassandra?¡± he asked. He thought, ¡®Maybe only Cassandra can help him now!¡± ¡°But the doctor asked you to rest!¡± Yohannes replied. Raymond threw a tantrum. He didn¡¯t want to rest, let alone lie on the bed! As long as he calmed down, he could remember that his hands were disabled! The only way was to find Cassandra and ask for her help! On 1722 Chapter int Yohannes couldn¡¯t win with Raymond, so he had no choice but to take him to Whitecrane Hall. Because Leonardo told them that Cassandra was about to leave when they arrived. At Whitecrane Hall, Cassandra refused them mercilessly. ¡°It¡¯s useless for you toe to me. You didn¡¯t follow the doctor¡¯s advice and broke your hands again. And now you wanna seek treatment again? In your dreams!¡± As expected, Raymond wouldn''t do what the doctor told him and give up on boxing. Especially after what his parents did to him. But Cassandra didn¡¯t expect him to be able to endure the pain for so many days! ¡°Cassandra, please help me if you have a way to let Dr. Quirke treat my hands!¡± Raymond begged desperately. He would rather beg Cassandra than his parents, so he would get an answer directly! ¡°There¡¯s nothing | can do!¡± Cassandra replied. ¡°That¡¯s impossible. Don¡¯t you know Dr. Quirke? Please ask her to treat me again!¡± Raymond was a little anxious. He didn¡¯t want to be disabled forever. It would be a fatal blow to him! ¡°Right. I¡¯m Dr. Quirke, but don¡¯t you understand my rules? There are so many people whoe for treatment that | would do nothing else if | agreed with them all! Since you want to see Dr. Quirke, how much consultation fee are you willing to pay?¡± Cassandra asked. JB BBB NM Shapter 161 How could she treat a useless person? 17:77 Not to mention that she did not entirely heal Raymond¡¯s hands back then. Since she did it on purpose, how could he treat him again? It was his wishful thinking! Raymond''s face became even paler now! He didn¡¯t have much money. Even if he had, it was only 40 million dors. How would he pay Dr. Quirke? ¡°Can |... ¡°No way!¡± Cassandra interrupted him quickly. She would never agree. ¡°Cassandra, are you going to let me disable? Don¡¯t you have a guilty conscience?¡± Raymond asked angrily. He didn¡¯t get why nobody wanted to help him. Now you want to talk with me about conscience? Do you people of the Yates family even have a conscience?¡± Cassandra snorted. ¡°Do you want to know why your hands broke again so quickly?¡± Chatper 162 Chapter 162 Raymond was dumbfounded. He wondered if there was a story there. Looking at his expression, Cassandra felt overjoyed. ¡°With one treatment, your hands could be cured. It did not have to take a month. | asked the doctor to extend your therapy. | know you would continue to box or race cars. Although your hands are cured after a month of treatment, they will break again if you continue to box. Nobody could save your hands by then.¡± Such a cruel fact was a fatal blow to Raymond! He didn¡¯t expect that Cassandra would not want to help him sincerely but trick him into believing that his hands were healed and that he could continue to be a boxer. It turned out to be her revenge! ¡°Why did you do this to me? Why are you so vicious?¡± Raymond roared, bursting into tears. He couldn¡¯t ept that she was so cruel to him! Cassandra snorted and looked at Raymond gloatingly. ¡°Why? Raymond, what did you do to me when | was living under the same roof with you? Didn¡¯t you want to stand up for Yulissa? What? You don¡¯t allow me to vent my anger when you want something from me? If | didn¡¯t need the shares. you and Yohannes own, do you think | want to talk to you?¡± Raymond kept stepping back, realizing that Cassandra was using him. ¡°Actually, I¡¯m not that cruel. As long as you give up boxing or racing the car, your hands are fine. However, you insist on boxing. Hugo must have told you the consequences. so don¡¯t me us for what happened to you!¡± Cassandra called Scarlett over and asked her to drive him out! Raymond looked like a walking corpse! Scarlett called the security guards over and dragged him out. His hands were once again disabled and unable to recover. CBGB BNN Chapter 1652 He became disabled. UZR US 172 Yohannes couldn¡¯t ept the fact. He also didn¡¯t expect Cassandra to be so cruel. There was nothing they could do now. ¡°Ray, let''s go back. Cassandra is not the only one in this world who can find Dr. Quirke!¡± Yohannesforted him, but he wasn¡¯t confident at all. He didn¡¯t know who else could find Dr. Quirke so easily and convince him to treat Ray¡¯s hands. As far as he was concerned, he didn¡¯t know who was capable of doing so. So Raymond''s hands were disabled? Raymond shook off Yohannes¡® hands and slumped to the ground! ¡°Yohan, if | had been nicer to Cassandra in the past, would she not hate me so much and help me?¡± Raymond asked, looking at Yohannes earnestly and expectantly. He wished Yohannes could say something tofort him. However, Yohannes was speechless. He didn¡¯t know how tofort Raymond! Because he was in no ce to say such words. He had regretted it for a long time, but it couldn¡¯t make Cassandra forgive him. Just as Raymond said just now, if they had been nicer to her before, she might not have refused to help Raymond. But there was no ifs in the world! Who knew? If he had known it earlier, he would have cherished Cassandra. However, there was no going back or Time Machine. ¡°Ray, don¡¯t think too much. Let¡¯s go back to the hospital. You still have some tests to run,¡± he said. coBeeBu Chapter 162 ¡°What tests? There''s no cure for my hands. It won¡¯t make any difference even if | run more tests, Raymond sneered. If it worked, he would be willing to do as many tests as necessary to help. his hands recover. But it was futile! Keh walked up to Cassandra. She looked so aloof now. His heart ached for her. ¡°Raymond has already left. If you don¡¯t feel assured, | will have someone to send him abroad or kill him. In that case, he will never show up in front of you,¡± he said. He was willing to do anything to make Cassandra happier. ¡°Please don''t. The Yates family hasn¡¯t gone bankrupt yet. How can Raymond miss that? Miranda is still pulling strings to get Yulissa out of prison. Guess if Raymond, Yohannes, and Benjamin would allow her to live in peace once she is released from prison?¡± Cassandra replied. Yulissa¡¯s sentence was imperative! However, she wouldn''t stop Yulissa from being released on parole! The prison was too good for Yulissa! That was not her intent.This content is ? N?velDrama.Org. Yulissa was in jail, so she had no idea what had happened to the Yates family so far. Therefore, she would go back to the Yates residence aftering out of jail. In that case, Benjamin wouldn''t let her off when he woke up. It was her fault that Raymond¡¯s hands were disabled. Given her understanding of Raymond, he would also me Yulissa for that! Chapter tog There would be a good show then! Keh immediately understood what Cassandra was thinking. ¡°Do you want them to fight each other?¡± If she remembered correctly, Yulissa would be sentenced tomorrow. Although her biological father was pulling strings for her, she couldn¡¯t get away with it given the evidence and the pressure from the authority, Yulissa couldn¡¯t get away with her crime! But it didn¡¯t mean that she would rot in jail. After she came out of jail, it would be the beginning of her nightmare! The other Yates family members wouldn''t let her go easily. It hurt their feelings when they learned that Yulissa was Miranda¡¯s illegitimate daughter. How could they still treat her like before? ¡°| don¡¯t need to do anything. Isn''t it good to sit by and watch the fun?¡± Cassandra raised her eyebrows slightly. Keh couldn''t helpughing. Cassandra was still a little wicked, but she was super cute! Indeed, watching the fun without doing anything was the happiest. The beloved siblings began to turn against each other. Instead of sticking to the topic with Keh, Cassandra switched gears and brought up the experimental drugs out of the blue. ¡°It worked well. Thank you, Dr. Quirke.¡± After doubting Dr. Quirke¡¯s identity in his mind, he deliberately said that to Cassandra.. JDD Chapter 162 UZR 12 1723 Although he still had doubts, he felt that it should be pretty close. Cassandra smiled. ¡°Not at all. Dr. Quirke is also paid to do things.¡± Keh was stunned. ¡°What? Is Dr. Quirke also short of money?¡± If so, he had nothing but money. He was happy to let Faye spend them. ¡°Will anyone me themselves for having more mor The herbs Dr. Quirke uses are all the best, so the cost is naturally expensive,¡± Cassandra exined. Therefore, it was natural for her to charge a high consultation fee. Keh nodded in agreement. The two telegraph nts he auctioned for Kayden cost 600 million dors, let alone the other herbs. In that case, the consultation fee of Dr. Quirke was not expensive at all! ¡°That¡¯s true. The cost of medicine is high. No matter how expensive the consultation fee is, someone will be willing to pay for it,¡± Keh said. Cassandra was speechless. She couldn¡¯t understand what Keh was thinking. If the consultation fee was too high, Faye Quirke¡¯s reputation would be ruined. Chatper 163 Chapter 163 Run 17:23 Keh¡¯s drugspleted clinical trials and were put into production. They were only provided for the Falcon Special Operations Force. Keh chose Whitecrane Hall as his supplier. He guessed that Cassandra was Faye Quirke, so Whitecrane Hall was hers. In that case, he needed to let Cass earn his money. There was one more thing. Yulissa was sentenced to eight years in prison andpensated Cassandra with 900 thousand dors. Gavin was sentenced to eight months in prison as a result of Cassandra¡¯s forgiveness. After being released from prison, he was required to volunteer in an orphanage and a nursing home for a year. Yulissa was not happy with the decision and nned to appeal. But her appeal was denied. Besides, she still needed to paypensation. However, nobody appeared in court except for her mother Miranda. She wondered if all her brothers didn¡¯t want to see her again. Were they mad at her? She didn¡¯t understand for a moment. Yulissa was put in prison. She needed to put on a uniform and wait to be allocated to a cell! However, Miranda went to see her as soon as she got in. In the meeting room, Yulissa became excited when she saw Miranda. ¡°Mom, why didn¡¯t you help me? Why did | still get sentenced to prison? Are you going to give up on me?¡± She thought, ¡®Didn¡¯t she go to see Cassandra to settle out of court? Didn¡¯t she pull some strings for me? But why was | still sentenced to prison for CJ BB BBM M Chapter 163 eight years?¡± She would be 26 years old when she was released from prison. She would be no longer young at that time. Then my life would be meaningless. It¡¯s all Miranda¡¯s fault! Why didn¡¯t she bring her daughter under control? Why didn¡¯t she seek justice for me? | don¡¯t wanna go to jail!¡¯ Yulissa roared in her mind. ¡°Lisa, it¡¯s my fault. | will find a way to get you out of prison. Don¡¯t worry. | have already figured it out,¡± Miranda whispered. Although no one was watching them, cameras were everywhere, and someone was listening in on their talk. Therefore, she had to whisper in a low voice. Yulissa¡¯s eyes lit up! Seriously? ¡°Really, Mom? How long do | have to wait? | can¡¯t stand being in jail for a day!¡± She was on the verge of breaking down. Since the SAT was over, she had been locked up for a long time! She wanted to attend Juset University. What should she do? ¡°Be patient and wait for a while. It''ll be soon!¡± Miranda tried tofort Yulissa. She would make it up to her daughter in the future! ¡°Mom, where are my brothers? Why don¡¯t theye to see me? Are they still angry with me?¡± Yulissa finally asked the question in her mind. She had been in jail for so long, and none of her brothers came to see her. What on earth happened? ¡°Of course not. Your father has been in poor health recently, and they are busy taking care of him. Don¡¯t think too much. They are waiting for you to cTBOBaHY Chapter 163 go home!¡± Miranda replied. She decided not to tell Yulissa about what had happened to their family for fear of making her sad. She decided to find a chance to tell her who her biological father was when she was released from jail. Her biological father was now extremely powerful and capable of providing her with afortable life. Obviously, Yulissa didn¡¯t believe it. Even if her father was unwell and needed to be cared for, he wouldn¡¯t require so many people to look after him that they all had no time to see her. It seemed that they didn¡¯t treat her as their sister. ¡°Really? Mom, why do | always feel that my brothers are angry with me? When youe to see me next time, can you bring them with you?¡± Yulissa said. She could only feel relieved when she saw them. She didn¡¯t allow her brothers to love anyone else. Her daughter was so sensible. Miranda¡¯s heart ached for her. ¡°Okay, | wille to see you with your brothers next time, Lisa. Don¡¯t think too much about it, okay?¡± ¡°Okay, thank you, Mom!¡± Yulissa smiled happily. Cassandra ate watermelon at home and had nothing to do for the entire afternoon. It was rare for her to enjoy such a rxing day. However, it did notst long. The tranquillity of the afternoon was interrupted by the ringtone. JBBB BNM Chapter 163 ¡°Hello, Ms. Jenkins!¡± It was Liam Hawke, her agent. NO 17:23 ¡°What''s up?¡± Cassandra asked.N?velDrama.Org is the owner. ¡°Hello, Life decided to re-select candidates and began filming the day after tomorrow. Do you have time to join in the show?¡± Liam asked in a humble tone. Abig shot was usually moody. What if she refused to participate in the show? That would be a huge loss for him. It was not easy for him to get in touch with Samantha. She couldn¡¯t quit just because she was unhappy, right? ¡°The day after tomorrow?¡± Cassandra asked, frowning. Why couldn¡¯t he let her take a day off? The Yates family attempted to invite world-renowned doctors to treat Benjamin and Raymond. They probably were running out of money! Miranda even spent her pocket money to pay for Yulissa¡¯spensation! The moment she received the money, she donated it. She had nned to watch the Yates family squander all of their money. She also wanted to sit and watch them fight once Yulissa was released from prison. And now she was asked to participate in a show? ¡°Yes. Are you not avable at that time?¡± Liam asked, disappointed. ¡°Of course not. Send me the address. I''ll go by myself,¡± Cassandra replied. ¡°Okay,¡± Liam responded quickly. He felt like their two-minute talksted much longer than two hours!! She didn¡¯t know what kind of person Cassandra was. Was she also as cold and aloof as in front of the camera? Chapter 161 9m 7724 Cassandra continued spooning watermelon after the phone call ended She felt a little unhappy for a moment. She mashed all the watermelons into juice. She frowned slightly and fele even more annoyed! She threw the watermelon on the table and went outside the wor She didn¡¯t go far. She wanted to meet Keh next door. However, she changed her mind when she walked to his door. Today was a weekday. Keh was not supposed to be at home. He must have gone to thepany. So what should she do now? Cassandra went home dejectedly, thinking that it was not bad to record a show. At least she didn¡¯t have to be idle at home. However, it didn¡¯t take long before Keh and Kayden came to her. Kayden sized at Cassandra up and down this time. Cassandra was irritated by his scrutinizing gaze. ¡°Mr. Yates, if you don¡¯t withdraw your gaze, | won¡¯t mind cutting out your eyes.¡± Kayden was speechless. It was indeed disrespectful to gaze at her like that. Kayden sat down, ignoring Keh¡¯s murderous gaze. ¡°Well, | asked around and found out my uncle had been missing for almost 19 years. But it is said that his wife was pregnant before he disappeared. If the child is still alive, it seems to be about your age. However, there were no twins or illegitimate twins in the Yates family tree, thus | am unable to exin it. However, my grandpa showed me a photo of my uncle and his wife. | think they look quite simr to you,¡± he added. However, he didn¡¯t take the photo with him, not to mention to take a JB BBBNN Chapter 163 photo of them. 24 7 UX NO 17:23 ¡°Do you have any photos of them?¡± Cassandra asked curiously. She wondered what they looked like, and Kayden felt she was simr to them. Kayden was silent. Keh rolled his eyes. ¡°Forget it. He didn¡¯t take the photo with him.¡± He had never seen such a stupid person before. BBB BM M Chatper 164 Chapter 164 Cassandra was rendered speechless. She thought, ¡°Isn¡¯t Kayden the deputy leader of the Falcon Special Operations Force? How unreliable he is! Shouldn¡¯t he reflexively take a photo of it?¡± ¡°Forget it. So many people look alike in the world. Maybe it¡¯s just a coincidence,¡± Cassandra said. She didn¡¯t feel the urge to find her birth parents. It wasn¡¯t important to her anymore. ¡°Alright. You can look at them when | show the photo to you next time,¡± Kayden said. He came here today to tell Cassandra that there were no twins in the Yates family. Cassandra was a little irritated. There were no twins or gic mutations. in the Yates family. But why was she rted to Benjamin by blood? Wasn''t his illegitimate daughter dead? Benjamin had loved money as much as he loved life. He always felt that women approached him for his money. Therefore, he didn¡¯t dare to fool around. Logically speaking, he might only have an illegitimate daughter who was dead. So, which part of their paternity test went wrong? ¡°Okay, let¡¯s talk about itter.¡± Cassandra kept frowning. Seeing this, Keh felt sorry for her. ¡°Don¡¯t think about this for now. Let¡¯s talk about itter,¡± Keh said. His heart ached for Cassandra. If it was soplicated to identify her birth parents, he would rather she didn¡¯t know about it so she could feel JBBBBMM Chapter 164 more at case. He could tell she was annoyed. It was unnecessary at all. But that wouldn¡¯t matter. He could y with Cassandra in a few days. On 17:23 Two dayster, Cassandra pulled her suitcase to the shooting site again. This time, the production team chose Holon City to film the show. It was a fairnd with beautiful scenery. It was said that they found new investors this time. With more money, the production team naturally chose a good ce to film the show. Amelia and Thomas were already there when Cassandra arrived, believing that the team would be established on a firste, first-served basis this. time. They wanted to team up with Samantha, so they came early. Given Samantha''s personality, she would be the next to arrive. All they needed to do was to wait. As expected, Samantha was the third to arrive. As soon as Cassandra appeared in front of everyone, Amelia threw herself into her arms excitedly! ¡°Long time no see, Samantha! | miss you so much!¡± She refused to let Cassandra go and even rubbed her face against hers. This made Cassandra want to throw her away. Amelia¡¯s enthusiasm was more than she could stand. Unlike Amelia, Thomas was very stable. He walked slowly to Cassandra and greeted her with a smile. ¡°Samantha, long time no see!¡± BB BBM M Chapter 164 Cassandra freed herself from Amelia¡¯s embrace. She could finally breathe. However, they were on the air. (Why do | think Ms. Jenkins is scared by Amelia¡¯s enthusiasm? lol.] Me, too! Ms. Jenkins is scared!] Samantha: Mom, there¡¯s someone strange here!] Don¡¯t you know Samantha? Even if she dies, she won''t joke with her mother because the Yates family doesn¡¯t deserve it!] Yes, the Yates family doesn¡¯t deserve to be her family. We¡¯re her family!] Samantha is always cold. She isn¡¯t used to being so close to others.] (What the hell? Amelia greeted her so warmly, but she still disliked her. Who the hell does she think she is?] 1723 | think Thomi is cute. He says hi like a kid. But he¡¯s older than Samantha.] However, Amelia didn¡¯t care. She and her idol were women anyway. She could say hi to her in any way. At that time, Riley stepped forward and greeted her. ¡°Long time no see, Samantha. | heard that you did very well on SAT.¡± ¡°You know what?

His cousin told him repeatedly to keep a distance from Samantha, otherwise, there would be serious consequences. 17:24 The production team simply scrawled the numbers 1 to 6 on paper, rolled them into small balls, and asked the participants to draw lots.

Keh remembered that he used to stay at Cassandra¡¯s house and go to the field with her during the day to pick up cucumbers and tomatoes to eat. No matter how delicious the food Keh tastedter, it was not as sweet as the vegetables and fruits nted on thatnd. Cassandra and Keh picked up the tomatoes quickly. Soon, they filled one basket and another, which made the farmers happy.

Otherwise, it would be a deal breaker if the task could not be carried out on time because of his allergy! But now, Keh was eating the farmer¡¯s food, and nothing happened. It was just unbelievable.

However, Keh stepped forward and epted everything. ¡°Thank you, madam.¡± Keh paused and said in a distant tone, ¡°It¡¯s still early. Could we go pick some more?¡± Although Cassandra thought it was reasonable, she rejected Keh¡¯s suggestion. ¡°The best time to pick vegetables for sale is in the morning.

He was too hungry and no one in their group could cook. He made soup for lunch. Many of those dishes were diet foods that his agent often gave him, so he had no choice but to eat them. He came to such a show because he didn¡¯t want to eat diet meals anymore. Instead, he wanted to eat big chunks of meat and other fine food with his idol! As a result, he was disillusioned. He didn¡¯t even have the chance to reach fine food. Fortunately, his idol felt sorry for him and asked him to have dinner with them. He mused, ¡®As to the rest of my team members, wish you all good. luck.¡¯ When he came over, Cassandra was about to cook thest meal. Four dishes and one soup, perfect. The meat the olddy gave them was very fresh, which was the best choice for roasting. So they hadmp chops, steaks, sd, fish, and vegetable soup.

That¡¯s just shameless.¡± Keh looked at the interaction between the old couple, having mixed feelings. He thought, ¡®Perhaps this is the true meaning of life, in and peaceful. Suddenly, he was a little envious. He said to himself, ¡®When the right timees, | will confess my love to Cass and be with her forever. ¡®As to men around her, They could be considered to be friends as long as they don¡¯t. have unreasonable desires for her. ¡°But... ¡®It could not be med on me. Cass probably doesn¡¯t even like me now. If she falls in love with someone else before | confess, | would be so embarrassed. ¡°Madam, we don¡¯t have anything else to do anyway, so let us help you. Maybe you can give us a few tomatoes then. We made some Ketchup out of the tomatoes you gave us yesterday, and it was so good.¡± Amelia had a sweet face that everybody liked, and she was good at socializing, which always made everyoneugh. ¡°Okay, I''ll pick more tomatoes for youter.¡± Keh silently picked tomatoes, side by side with Cassandra. Both of them almost filled a basket at the same time, and then he put it away and changed the basket. [Wow, that¡¯s too careful, Isn¡¯t he the greatest man in the world?] [I admit that I''m envious. Samantha, you are my enemy now whether he is yours or 65% Chapter 169 not!] [It''s so warm. He stayed side by side with Samantha and took the initiative to change the basket when hers was full. | have to say that | am jealous.] [They look good together. They match each other!] [What? My granddaughter doesn¡¯t need a man!] [Hey, can you not call someone you don¡¯t even know your family?] [Don¡¯t bother talking to this kind of person. He is too much. Although Samantha is liked by all ages, that is just too ridiculous!] After a busy morning, the olddy brought several bags from somewhere and handed them enthusiastically. ¡°This is for you. They are all from our own fields, safe and clean. Take them back. You must be exhausted.¡± On the other hand, ¡°You two, leave here!¡± The old man angrily kicked a boy and a girl out of the field, while Thomas tried to hide. himself. Thomas thought, ¡®I miss my idol a little bit, and | don¡¯t know if we can regroup a band. next time.¡± It was Luna and Jayce who were driven away. Because Jayce didn¡¯t know how to pick. cucumbers, he identally destroyed several cucumber seedlings, but Luna was purely wilted. ¡°This one looks fresh. Is it delicious?¡± ¡°This one is also good...¡± Like this, the whole morning, she had eaten several cucumbers from the old couple¡¯s field, If there were worms on seedlings, she would stamp on them, until the seedlings were destroyed. The old man couldn¡¯t stand it anymore, so he drove them away. By the time of noon, he gave Thomas some ingredients because he did a good job. The first two-week recording was finally over. As agreed, Thomas was going to take Cassandra back to the Yates family. 0 Chapter 169 Keh was going with them too. Keh knew the whole thing from beginning to end, so it seemed reasonable for him to be there, too. Thomas thought. It is just that... If it is confirmed that Cassandra is the child of the Yates family, Grandpa would probably faint with anger when he recalls this scene. Cassandra followed them to the Yates family. The moment she entered the door, Maximilian was waiting for them in the middle of the living room. The moment he saw Cassandra, that strong feeling came back. He eximed inwardly, ¡°This must be the child of the Yates family. She is exactly the same as Leanna, even with the same expression on her face! ¡°She even resembles Darren between her eyes and eyebrows!¡± Maximilian stood up excitedly and walked towards Cassandra step by step with a cane, ¡°Cassandra... Cassandra was a little confused, thinking. This doesn¡¯t mean we can be sure about it right away, right?* She unconsciously looked at Keh, hoping that he could help her out. Keh understood and said, ¡°Grandpa, she is Cassandra. Let''s sit down first.¡± Only then did Maximiliane back to his senses and find himself a little rude just now. He immediately looked away with tears in his eyes. ¡°Yes, sit down first.¡± Kayden didn¡¯t understand why Grandpa was so excited. Although Cassandra was simr to the person in the photo, it couldn¡¯t prove anything. ¡°Maximilian, can | have a look at the photo you mentioned?¡± Cassandra was mainly interested in the photo that looked like her, so she wanted to see it for herself. Maximilian asked Kayden to take out his album and opened thest page of the photos. There was a sandwichyer, from which he took out an old photo. Cassandra and the woman were indeed very alike. Keh was also stunned. If they stood together now, he wouldn¡¯t know the difference Chapter 169Content held by N?velDrama.Org. between them. ¡°Who is she? And who is the man next to her?¡± Cassandra pointed to the woman, and after looking at the photo, she became more interested in the person. ¡°Her name is Leanna, my eldest daughter-inw. The man next to her is her husband and also my elder son, Darren.¡± Maximilian patiently introduced. Cassandra looked solemn. She stared at the photo for a long time and suddenly raised her head. ¡°I want to do a blood test with you.¡± She had a strong feeling that she was probably their child. So, it indirectly indicated that she might be the child of the Yates family. Maximilian was very excited. ¡°Good kid, I¡¯ve been waiting for you to say this. Somehow, | think even if without the test, | can be sure that you are the child of the Yates family.¡± Cassandra pulled out a few of her own hair, and Maximilian also pulled out a few of his. He told Kayden and Keh to use the military medical system for identification. Only in this way could they not be disturbed. Keh said, ¡°Don¡¯t worry. | will supervise it myself.¡± He didn¡¯t want there to be any more problems in this appraisal. He thought, This time. it was Cass herself who proposed to do the appraisal, which showed that she still has a little expectation for family affection. ¡°In that case, | hope this test could help her find her rtives. Chatper 170 Chapter 170 65% The result came out quickly, and the final answer was delivered to Keh within one day! He didn¡¯t look at it but asked, ¡°How did it go?¡± ¡°Sir, it is what you expected.¡± With these words, Keh felt a little relieved and took Cassandra to the Yates family. Maximilian gathered all the members of the Yates family together, including Thomas, as if he had already known the result. He called back his two sons and daughter-inw. Cassandra didn¡¯t expect such a big scene. She whispered to Keh, ¡°Why are there so many people?¡± ¡°Maybe they are all here for the result.¡± Keh smiled. He thought, ¡®It¡¯s good that Cass is a child of the Yates family. ¡°The Yates family is the most harmonious one among so many celebrity families | have known. ¡®Being a child of the Yates family might make up for the loss in her heart.¡± ¡°What''s the result, Keh?¡± Maximilian couldn''t wait to ask. ¡°Mr. Yates, here is the result. You can check it yourself. He handed the documents in his hands to Maximilian. It meant that he hadn¡¯t looked at it, waiting for Maximilian to open it. Maximilian¡¯s hands trembled with excitement. When he took out the test report, he turned to thest page, 85, with his eyes wide open. He flipped it open! ¡°The probability of blood rtives is 85%! She is my granddaughter. She really belongs to the Yates family!¡± She was the child of the Yates family! Even Kayden and Thomas¡® parents were very excited. She was Darren''s child. [e) Wed, 28 Feb Chapter 170. It was incredible. Maximilian was a little emotional, and he couldn''t control himself. ¡°Cassie, you are my granddaughter, my granddaughter!¡± ¡°Pills! Give me the antihypertensive pills.¡± It should have been Kayden¡¯s mother shouting. Maximilian was a little emotional and his blood pressure soared. He felt better with blood pressure pills. ¡°Grandpa, don¡¯t get too excited. Ms. Yates won¡¯t run away.¡± ¡°Pah- ¡°Bastard, what did you call her? Ms. Yates? She is your cousin!¡± It was Kayden¡¯s mother, an elegant woman. Kayden was speechless. He wasn¡¯t sessful at changing the title for Cassandra. The world was a drama. ¡°Cassie, I¡¯m sorry. Grandpa found you sote and made you suffer so much.¡± Maximilian took Cassandra¡¯s hand and kept apologizing. It was the first time Cassandra had seen such emotions and feelings. She didn¡¯t know how to describe what she felt. She only knew that she was fine with his behavior. ¡°Grandpa... Don¡¯t get excited. | still have questions, and | hope you can answer them for 1.me. Cassandra was not immersed in the joy of finding her rtives. She had more important things to figure out, which was very important for her. will ¡°If you ask, Grandpa ell you everything.¡± Maximilian calmed down and looked at Cassandra seriously. ¡°The first question is, since you and | are rted by blood, why do Benjamin and | also have a biological rtionship? | did the test twice in person, and so did Benjamin. The results were the same.¡± Maximilian knew that she would ask this question. ¡°This is easy to exin. In the 65%This content is ? N?velDrama.Org. Chapter 170 beginning, your father, Darren, saved Benjamin in a car ident. They were both very young at the time you were born. ¡°Your mother¡¯s identity is somewhat special. She may disappear after giving birth to you, and your father will go with her. Therefore, your father found Benjamin, hoping that he could repay the gratitude for saving his life. He wanted to apany Leanna and run away with her, but the child must be taken care of, so your father found Benjamin. ¡°Your father didn¡¯t want anything, just hoping them to swap their gene sequences in the database. Benjamin¡¯s DNA sequence was your father¡¯s, which was my son¡¯s, and my son¡¯s DNA sequence was Benjamin¡¯s. ¡°That was to say, except for the identity, everything else had changed. So, the DNA tests you had done would be automatically reced with my son¡¯s gene when it was collected by the system. Therefore, every time you tested, you were in a father-son rtionship.¡± Cassandra was silent. She didn¡¯t expect the truth to be like this. She imagined a lot of possibilities. The DNA sequence changed, and the gene mutated. Who knew that her biological father was tampering with their gic data? She didn¡¯t know whether to cry orugh. ¡°Then why was Benjamin so sure that | am his child?¡± ¡°Because it was all your father¡¯s work behind this incident. No matter what it shows, the gic conclusion is correct. But | don¡¯t know how to exin this question and the specific details until theye back.¡± Cassandra was speechless. Maximilian didn¡¯t know how it worked. Cassandra pondered, ¡®So, that idiot Benjamin probably didn¡¯t know anything about it either. ¡®Otherwise, he wouldn''t be so excited to see the DNA test result.¡¯ Cassandra nodded, and Maximilian was pushed aside. Kayden¡¯s mother, Yasmine, took Cassandra¡¯s hand and said enthusiastically, ¡°Cassie, | am Kayden¡¯s mother and your aunt. From now on, I''ll see you as my daughter. Tell me what you want, and | will buy them for you.¡± Another elegant woman reached the other side of Cassandra and took her other hand. ¡°Cassie, I¡¯m your aunt Jessica. I¡¯m Thomas¡¯ mother. I''ll treat you like my daughter from now on. | have prepared a gift for you, and I''ll ask Thomas to bring it to you later.¡± [e) Cassandra was caught between the two, overwhelmed for a moment. Looking at the obedient niece, her uncles were also about to say something. After all, they had wanted a daughter for so many years but ended up with sons. And now they had a girl, so they naturally wanted to catch up. ¡°Cassie, what else do you want to ask?¡± ¡°The second question. You tell me my biological parents are missing. Why did they disappear for so long? What caused a couple to abandon their daughter and disappear for 19 years?¡± ording to the time, she might have disappeared from the Yates family when she was pregnant. Maximilian knew all these materials sent by his biological father. ¡°When your mom was pregnant, your parents had already left Drieso. We don¡¯t know where exactly. After you were born, your father wanted us to pick you up and raise you. but he took your mother away before we could arrive. ¡°He exchanged gic data with Benjamin just to protect himself and your mother. from being found, but he didn¡¯t expect that because of these, you have suffered for so many years.¡± Cassandra snorted coldly and thought, ¡®Such a statement is too far-fetched. ¡°There must be some secrets that Maximilian didn¡¯t know. ¡®Since they''re missing, not dead, there¡¯s a chance they might still be alive. ¡°My mother... What kind of person is she?¡± ¡°She is very elegant and noble, more honorable than a royal princess or queen. The Yates family got lucky that they had her.¡± Chatper 171 Chapter 171 Yasmine and Jessica had not heard the name Leanna for a long time. Leanna could be described as incredibly beautiful. Men who liked her could walk around Drieso several times, and even some women pursued her. It could be seen how stunning her appearance was. But somehow, Leanna ended up falling in love with Darren. The love story between the two of them, if written, would be a sweet romance novel that made jealous. everyone As the younger sisters-inw, Yasmine and Jessica once joked Darren had been single for so many years because he was waiting for Leanna. Otherwise, why wouldn¡¯t he consider marriage until Leanna showed up while both of his young brothers had gotten married and even had children for a long time? At that time, many people said that Darren was unforgivable for marrying Leanna! However, after they registered for marriage and should have be an enviable. couple, they suddenly disappeared from the public eye and remained missing for neen years. If it weren¡¯t for the news of them having a child in the first year of their disappearance, they probably wouldn¡¯t have known anything, let alone Kaydening home to ask about it.. Initially, when they rushed there by ne and car overnight, they were already toote. Darren and Leanna were gone, and the child was gone too. But as far as they knew, Cassandra had stayed in an orphanage in Drieso. Otherwise, Benjamin wouldn''t have followed the clues to find her, tracing her to Roond Vige and bringing her back to Drieso. Apart from those unreasonable things Benjamin had done, this was the only thing that made sense. It led them to find Cassandra, As for the paternity test proving the rtionship between Cassandra and Benjamin, they could leave it to Darren and wait for him toe back and exin that himself. However, this exnation might not be forting. Neen years had passed, and whoever should havee back had alreadye back. ¡°Cassie, it''s good that you¡¯re back. Youring back should be a relief for Maximilian,¡± said Yasmine with emotion, holding Cassandra''s hand. For so many years, not only the siblings of Darren felt guilty, but Maximilian also felt guilty. He was guilty of not acting faster back then so that Cassandra wouldn¡¯t be lost. Fortunately, they had found her now, which resolved a longstanding worry. However, Cassandra couldn''t ept this sentiment as readily. When she was with Benjamin¡¯s family at first, they pretended to be loving and caring. But now they were all selfish. As for this Yates family, she didn¡¯t know about them at all. The reason why she knew Kayden in her previous life was that he had died with the national g of Clusia draped over him. Besides, she had saved him in this life. But she didn¡¯t know anything about the Yates family. Therefore, she remained reserved towards them. She didn¡¯t want to encounter a family like Benjamin''s again. She had treated Benjamin and his family sincerely, only to be dead because of them in return. Kayden felt somewhat unbelievable. He wondered if Cassandra was really his cousin. Emery, the awesome hacker in Grass, was his cousin. Kayden thought, ¡®Should | go out to show off?*Content held by N?velDrama.Org. Thomas also found it unbelievable, but he was more pleasantly surprised. He had already been a fan of her, and she turned out to be his cousin. He would continue to be the first supporter of his cousin. Thomas was the first to react. He walked up to Cassandra and stretched out his hand with a charming smile. He said, ¡°Let me introduce myself formally. I¡¯m Thomas, your cousin, and also your fan.¡± Seeing that Thomas was so well-behaved, Jessica nodded approvingly. She thought that her son was good, as he knew how to get along with his cousin. Yasmine gave Kayden a sharp look, making him shudder. Kayden hurriedly said to Cassandra, ¡°Wee home, Cassandra.¡± He said that with a smile, and his words were sincere. 0 Kayden and Thomas had always known they had a cousin, and they knew she had been missing. The family was searching for her. While they couldn¡¯t help, they could only hope that one day their cousin would return. Now it seemed that their wish hade true. Kayden wanted to hug Cassandra, but he received a sharp gaze. Unconsciously, he swallowed and opted for a handshake instead. ¡°Ahem!¡± In the living room, there were two consecutive coughs,ing from Kayden¡¯s father and Thomas¡¯ father. Indeed, they were Cassandra''s second and third uncles. Kayden and Thomas didn¡¯t get what the coughs meant, but Yasmine and Jessica did. They quickly got up and introduced Kayden¡¯s father and Thomas¡¯ father. Denzel was Kayden¡¯s father, and Devin was Thomas¡¯ father. Cassandra greeted them stiffly, and then the two men nodded with satisfaction. They thought that a daughter was better than a son. Looking at their sons, they felt increasingly disappointed! Although Cassandra had a lot of questions, she felt embarrassed to ask further when she saw that Maximilian seemed a bit unwell. So she intended to leave. She hadn¡¯t been home since she returned, and she guessed that Hugo, Jeremiah, and Cyrus were probably waiting for her. Seeing that Cassandra was going to leave, Yasmine hurriedly held her hand and said, ¡°Cassie, this is your home. Where are you going?¡± Yasmine thought, ¡®How could Cassie leave right aftering back? Many beautiful dresses and imported delicacies | bought are on the way, all waiting to be given to her. Jessica also tried to stop Cassandra from leaving, unwilling to let her go. ¡°Well... There are still people waiting for me at home. Let me go back first. I''lle here tomorrow,¡± said Cassandra. Such enthusiasm made her a little overwhelmed. Therefore, Yasmine and Jessica reluctantly let her leave. Chapter 171 0277 At the entrance of Springmount Townhouse, Cassandra really didn¡¯t expect that, after half a month, the people from Benjamin¡¯s family could still block her. Seeing Cassandra, Frederick, Jasper, and Matthew went straight up to her. ¡°Cassandra,e with us.¡± Frederick stepped forward and tried to grab Cassandra''s hand, but he missed. ¡°Are you insane? If there¡¯s something wrong with your brain, go see a neurosurgeon. | don¡¯t mind making an appointment for you,¡± Cassandra said. She had been in a good mood at first, but she was now angry because of them. ¡°Cassandra, you can¡¯t be so heartless. Dad has been lying in the hospital for more than half a month. Have you visited him? Mom has started working outside, but you are enjoying yourself here. Do you have any conscience?¡± said Frederick. He was a little freaked out. In the past half a month, he spent money on treating Raymond and finding doctors for Benjamin. The tens of millions of dors that were barely saved were cheated away and used to pay the medical expenses. And they had all lost their jobs. Even Matthew, as a manager, was fired by thepany for the dubious reason that he was a bad guy. And thepany didn¡¯t give him anypensation. Besides, he should pay a penalty fee. If he didn¡¯t pay, he would be sued. Therefore, he borrowed money from his brothers. Now, although they were all together as a family, they had no money left. They thought that since Cassandra was Benjamin¡¯s daughter, she had to take care of him. Since she was their younger sister, she couldn''t just enjoy herself while watching them suffer. They had almost sold all the houses they owned. Cassandra said, ¡°Are you talking about conscience with me? You should first ask yourself if you have any. Don¡¯t think that you can justify your behavior and make me do anything. The matters of your family have nothing to do with me. Did | make your family what it is now? Yulissa did it! If you want to vent your anger, go find her.¡± She thought, ¡°It¡¯s no use yelling at me.¡± However, she thought for a moment and suddenly smiled. She continued, ¡°But if you i [e) Chapter 171 leo, 28 Feb F:65% three can defeat me, | might consider going to the hospital to see whether Benjamin is dead or not.¡± It didn¡¯t matter if she hit them for no reason, but that was not her style. She would like to give them a chance to take action and give herself the chance to teach Frederick and Jasper a lesson. Chatper 172 Chapter 172 Frederick sneered. In his opinion, Cassandra overestimated herself. He thought, ¡®Three against one? And she¡¯s just a girl. Does she think that we, as three men, can¡¯t defeat her?¡± ¡°Cassandra, you are overestimating yourself. Do you think you can beat us alone? Instead of asking for trouble, it¡¯s better to go back with us,¡± said Frederick. Otherwise, she might suffer, and she might use them of bullying her. Cassandra replied, ¡°Cut the crap. Just try it together. Remember not to cry after being beaten up.¡± Matthew looked at Cassandra with aplicated expression. He hadn''t said anything these days at home, and even now he didn¡¯t know what to say in front of Cassandra. But he said, ¡°Cassandra, we just came here to take you to see Dad, not to fight with you.¡± If it were before, he might have had the same attitude as Frederick, but this time.ing back, a lot had changed. He couldn''t figure out who was right and who was wrong. ¡°As | said, if you can beat me, I''ll go with you to see Benjamin. Otherwise, | won''t go.¡± Cassandra nced at Matthew contemptuously. She thought that Matthew must be out of his mind because he didn¡¯t cause trouble with her this timeing back. While he did nothing, Cassandra felt it hard to make trouble. for him. ¡°Cut the crap. Remember what you said. You''ll go to the hospital with us if we defeat you,¡± said Jasper. He wanted to vent his anger because he had been tortured by drugs. she injected him with. He thought he was getting better. However, in just three or four days, it was even worse than before. He thought that once he found out about the drugs, he would definitely let Cassandra. give them a try. ¡°Humph, you can defeat me first,¡± said Cassandra. Keh walked up to her and handed her the water in his hand. He said gently, ¡°Have some water first.¡± He thought Cassandra could easily deal with these three, so he decided to just watch Il [e) them fight. In such a situation, Cassandra definitely wishes to handle it herself. If someone got too rough on her, Keh wouldn''t hold back. Jasper took the lead in making a move. Just as his fist was about to strike Cassandra¡¯s face, she skillfully dodged it. She even grabbed Jasper¡¯s hand to pull him forward. Then, Jasper lost his bnce and almost fell down. Jasper thought, ¡®Damn it! Why is she so strong?¡± Cassandra was stronger than he expected, so he was a bit taken aback. Seeing this, Frederick also attacked Cassandra but was kicked over by her. ¡°Ah!¡± eximed Jasper! ¡°Cassandra, you are so vicious! My hand!¡± He could feel his bones breaking. It was so painful! His hand was about to break! Frederick got up from the ground and shouted, ¡°Cassandra, let go of Jace. What did you do to his hand?¡± Jasper¡¯s scream must have shown that there was something wrong with his hand. If that was the case, there was no money left at home for treatment. After all, Raymond¡¯s hand hadn''t healed yet. ¡°His hand was going to hit me in the face. Then | could only break it and myself,¡± said Cassandra. protect She raised her knee and grabbed Jasper¡¯s hand. Then she struck Jasper¡¯s hand hard against her knee. ¡°Ow!¡± Jasper eximed again. It was this hand that injected those drugs into Cassandra¡¯s body in her previous life and made her die of pain. The stab from Yulissa was nothingpared with those drugs, which made her unable to hold on. ¡°Jace!¡± ¡°Jace!¡± Frederick and Matthew shouted at the same time. Frederick red at Cassandra fiercely and shouted, ¡°You are just venting your personal ml 0 Chapter 172 65% grievances! This isn¡¯t a fair fight of three against one!¡± Cassandra smiled contemptuously and said, ¡°What do you think I¡¯m doing? ying house with you guys? If you can¡¯t defeat me, the get out of here. You want me to see Benjamin? Well, aren¡¯t you afraid I''ll just make him angry to death?¡± Keh had just called Yannick, and Yannick had just arrived. ¡°Throw them away...¡± Matthew handed Jasper to Frederick. Then he stood up and looked at Cassandra with disappointment and mixed feelings. He said, ¡°Cassandra, how did you be like this? No matter what, we are your brothers. The one lying in bed is your biological father. Do you really have to treat us like this?¡± In his dream, Cassandra wasn''t like this. She had always been submissive, letting them manipte her and trying hard to please them. Just like when she first returned to the Yates family. Matthew wondered why Cassandra had be like this. She was now cold-blooded and ruthless, with such vicious actions. Cassandra reacted as if she had heard a funny joke. She said, ¡°Matthew, I¡¯m d to inform you that | have nothing to do with your family. ¡°Although | haven¡¯t figured out why Benjamin and | tested positive for a father- daughter rtionship, | want to tell you that the baby that Miranda threw away back then was indeed the child of Beni first love. The baby died within the next few days after being abandoned. Therefore, the daughter of Benjamin¡¯s first love was not me. Don¡¯te to me anymore with ims that I¡¯m your sister or that I¡¯m Benjamin''s. daughter. | won''t ept your ims.¡± Cassandra pretended to suddenly realize and continued, ¡°By the way, that baby died because of Miranda¡¯s abandonment. That means she killed the baby. Don¡¯t worry. | will find Benjamin¡¯s first love and let her settle this with Miranda.¡± She thought, ¡®It¡¯s me! I¡¯m doing something good without seeking recognition!¡± When Jeremiah found out that the baby had died, he was looking for Benjamin¡¯s first love. But there hadn¡¯t been any news yet.Content ? provided by N?velDrama.Org. Matthew obviously didn¡¯t believe Cassandra¡¯s words, and even Frederick was a little shocked. They didn¡¯t think it was possible. As the DNA test showed, they didn¡¯t believe what she said. Ill Chapter 172 ¡®That can¡¯t be true. What you said must be false! You¡¯re saying that to distance yourself from the Yates family, right?¡± Frederick didn¡¯t believe her words. He didn¡¯t think Cassandra wasn''t one of the Yates family. ¡°Believe it or not. If you don¡¯t, there¡¯s nothing | can do about it,¡± said Cassandra. Cassandra felt that they were a little weak. They wanted to beat her, but now they seemed to have lost their enthusiasm. As she walked past Matthew, she felt a bit annoyed. She directly kicked at his knees, causing him to kneel on the ground in pain. Then she thought, ¡°That¡¯s what a family looks like. Then she looked down at Matthew contemptuously and decided to leave everything to Yannick. When Cassandra got home, she was not surprised to see Hugo, Jeremiah, and Cyrus there. Cyrus looked at Keh with mixed feelings. In the past half month, he took part in the show together with ine. And he could see that ine was very dependent on Keh. Besides, she was dependent on Keh unconsciously, which was probably not realized by herself. Keh and ine cooked together, and they cooperated well with each other. Regardless of all the other factors, they were really like an ideal couple. That was why Cyrus felt uneasy. ¡°ine, you''re back.¡± Jeremiah looked her up and down and continued, ¡°Unbelievable. Despite spending half a month doing farm work in July, you¡¯re not even a bit tanned.¡± Cassandra was speechless. ¡°You can give it a try if you want,¡± she replied. Jeremiah red at Cassandra with displeasure and thought, ¡®Nonsense!¡¯ Hugo brought out two portions of watermelon from the kitchen. One was a half watermelon with a spoon, specifically for Cassandra, while the other was sliced watermelon. Chatper 173 Chapter 173 Cassandra held the watermelon and leisurely ate it with the spoon. She thought that this was the way to enjoy the summer. ¡°What''s going on between you and the Yates family?¡± Jeremiah had been holding onto this question for a long time. He didn¡¯t expect that ine would say nothing and just cat watermelons there leisurely when she came back. It was not Cassandra¡¯s fault. As she just gave a lesson to Benjamin''s three sons at the entrance, she was in a good mood. ¡°Keh took my hair and Maximilian¡¯s hair for identification, confirming that | have a biological rtionship with him. Judging from the result, he is my grandfather,¡± said Cassandra. But she didn¡¯t know whether to ept him as her¡ªgrandfather or not. There were still many questions she hadn''t figured out yet, such as the reason why the paternity test between Benjamin and her turned out to be positive and why the results of the tests had been the same several times. Whether it was done by herself or supervised by Jeremiah, the results were the same. Maximilian¡¯s exnation was too far¡ª fetched. At least for now, she didn¡¯t believe it. But this paternity test was done by Keh, so he shouldn''t have yed any tricks. ¡°So you are from the Yates family? Who is your father? Denzel or Devin?¡± Cassandra was speechless. She thought, ¡®You don¡¯t need to guess anything next time.¡± ¡°I''m the daughter of Darren, the eldest son of Maximilian.¡± Cassandra stuffed another spoonful of watermelon into her mouth. Cyrus was also surprised, while Hugo seemed happy. In Hugo¡¯s opinion, at least the Yates family was rich and powerful. And it was Said that the Yates family was very harmonious. Hugo hoped that Cassandra could be loved by her family. Jeremiah asked, ¡°So, what are you going to do?¡± He wanted to know whether Cassandra would go back to the Yates family or continue living with him. ¡°| have no idea. | am a child of the Hathaway family now, and so are you.¡± [e) Chapter 173 Cassandra¡¯s words had a significant impact. Jeremiah had no other requirements. He only wanted to be her brother on the same household register as Cassandra. Keh frowned unconsciously. But he didn¡¯t pay much attention to what they were saying. He knew what Jeremiah wanted, and so did Jeremiah. But they didn¡¯te to an agreement at that time. Even if Jeremiah recognized him, he didn¡¯t want him to remind Cassandra of the past. He thought that the injury couldn¡¯t exin why Cassandra lost her memory. Keh suddenly asked, ¡°Then are you going back to the Yates family? That family is different from Benjamin''s family. Everyone of that family is good.¡± It was a rare ce for him to enjoy the warmth andfort. Cassandra just shook her head slightly and said, ¡°I haven¡¯t thought too much about it for the time being. Whether it was the Yates family or Benjamin¡¯s family, it¡¯s the same. to me. | feel pretty good now. Lucas and Sylvia are very good to me. And I¡¯m satisfied with my current life.¡± +6 Hugo was a little confused and said, ¡°Cassandra, weren¡¯t you very eager to find your own family before? Why now...¡± Keh looked at Cassandra, and he seemed to understand. ¡°Hugo, haven''t | paid enough? Even if the Yates family is my family, the fact remains that my biological parents abandoned me. | won''t pursue whatever doesn¡¯t belong to me anymore. | think things are fine as they are now.¡± She didn¡¯t need the so-called family anymore. Even if she found the Yates family, what difference would it make? No matter how splendid something was, it wouldn¡¯t be hers if she didn¡¯t need it. Moreover, the fact that she was still the one who had been abandoned couldn''t be changed. Hugo was speechless, and Jeremiah didn¡¯t know what to say. However, Cyrus smiled faintly and said, ¡°Since you have made up your mind, we''ll all support you. No matter who you are, you are our ine.¡± Cassandra pursed her lips and said nothing. Keh was even more distressed. [e) on Chapter 173 He wondered what Cassandra had experienced in Benjamin''s family that made her not believe in family. Although he didn¡¯t believe in the Zelinski family, he used to have a mother who caredN?velDrama.Org is the owner. for him. But Cassandra... Keh stopped thinking about it. He decided to talk about it in the future. It seemed that it would take some time for the Yates family to get Cassandra back. Frederick, Jasper, and Matthew went back to the hospital. Leonardo was a little astonished because the three of them had varying degrees of injuries. The most severely injured was Jasper. ¡°What happened to you? Where did you get all these injuries?¡± Leonardo looked at them worriedly. Seeing this, Yohannes hurried to call the doctor. Frederick breathed a sigh of anger and said, ¡°It¡¯s all because of Cassandra! That damn girl! How dare she hit us? Look at Jace¡¯s hand. He is badly injured.¡± Jace¡¯s hand must have been broken. What should Jace do in the future? How could he, as a doctor, perform surgery and hold a scalpel without a healthy right hand? Hearing this, Leonardo frowned and said with some disapproval, ¡°I told you not to disturb Cassandra. Can''t you understand that? You asked for trouble yourselves. Why do you me her?¡± Frederick paused for a moment and looked at Leonardo unhappily. He replied, ¡°Leo, what are you talking about? We just want her toe with us to see Dad. Dad has been in bed for more than half a month, but Cassandra hasn¡¯t evene to see him. Isn''t that unfilial?¡± Frederick didn¡¯t think he had done anything wrong. 4 Leonardo said, ¡°Unfilial? Did our family ever take care of her for a day? How could you ask her to be filial? How did we treat her during her two months in our family? Now that she¡¯s treating us in the same way, can¡¯t you stand it? ¡°Whates around goes around. It¡¯s now our turn to suffer.¡± Leonardo had figured it out. He thought, ¡°You reap what you sow. He hadn''t treated Cassandra well for a day, so he had no right to ask for her forgiveness. now, at least not yet. ¡°Leo, we were just making jokes. But she holds grudges! She¡¯s so mean! She is not as generous as Lisa.¡± After saying that, Frederick regretted it. He wondered why he mentioned Yulissa again. Even just hearing Yulissa¡¯s name would make Leonardo¡¯s expression change. f you think Yulissa is good, then consider her your sister. Don¡¯t me me for not reminding you if you lose everything. Don¡¯t forget that she is the culprit who let you be terminated and pay so much compensation.¡± Frederick instinctively wanted to me Cassandra, but he also knew that it was not her fault. Yulissa¡¯s problem was very serious. As long as someone knew it, the result would be the same. It was just a matter of time. Frederick didn¡¯t respond. Instead, he said awkwardly, ¡°I¡¯m going to see the doctor.¡± He had been kicked by Cassandra, and it really hurt. He wanted to get checked. Two hourster, Jasper¡¯s surgery was over. The doctor looked at Leonardo and shook his head helplessly. He said, ¡°I did my best with Dr. Yates¡® hand. | have tried my best. If you can find Dr. Quirke, maybe there¡¯s something more that can be done with his hand. Otherwise, Dr. Yates right hand will have problems even with eating in the future.¡± Leonardo calmed down and asked, ¡°Isn¡¯t there any other way?¡± The doctor shook his head. He had already thought of what he could do. There was really no way. Leonardo nodded and said tiredly, ¡°Thank you, doctor.¡± Chatper 174 Chapter 174 After Matthew''s examination, it turned out he only had some bruising on his knee, nothing serious. However, after learning about Jasper¡¯s condition, he was shocked. He thought that Cassandra didn¡¯t hesitate to break Jasper¡¯s hand because she really wanted to kill them. But he couldn¡¯t figure out what kind of resentment towards them Cassandra was harboring and why she could be so ruthless to them. And he couldn''t understand his weird dreams. ¡°Leo, please call a doctor for treatment first. We''ll figure out a way to settle the problem of money. Besides, | still own three houses. Let me sell one first.¡± He only had the real estate now, and he didn¡¯t know how long the family could hold on. Leonardo nodded. There were no other things they could do. ¡°Matthew, did Cassie say anything to you today? Or what did you say to her?¡± asked Leonardo. In his opinion, Cassandra would only take action after they provoked her. He thought that Frederick or Jasper must have said something terrible to Cassandra. ¡°We didn¡¯t say anything else. We just asked her toe with us to see Dad. She said if we could defeat her three to one, she woulde.¡± Leonardo was speechless. He thought that the three of them were really causing trouble for themselves. Back then, he had sent so many people to give a lesson to her, but they all ended up being subdued by her. The three of them could only be abused. Leonardo could only say to himself that they deserved it. Matthew suddenly thought about something and said, ¡°By the way, Cassandra also said. that she had nothing to do with us. The biological child Dad was looking for had died within a few days after being abandoned by Mom. As for why the paternity test between Dad and her turned out to be positive, she didn¡¯t know it.¡± Leonardo was stunned and thought, ¡°What does that mean? [e) ¡®Cassandra isn¡¯t Dad¡¯s daughter? ¡®Didn''t Dad say that Cassandra was his daughter and ask us to find her? ¡®But now, what did Cassandra say? The child of Dad''s first love was dead? ¡®And the child died because of Mom?¡± Matthew added, ¡°Cassandra also said that she has been looking for Dad¡¯s first love. At that time, the woman might investigate Mom''s murder.¡± Bang! It was Miranda. The fruit she had just bought fell to the ground after she heard her son¡¯s words. ¡°Mat, what do you mean? When did | kill anyone? | didn¡¯t! | didn¡¯t!¡± Miranda denied it. She thought, ¡®When did |mit murder? | didn¡¯t do anything! ¡°What was about the baby they just mentioned? Who was it?¡± ¡°Mom, calm down.¡± Matthew felt a little helpless. Looking at Miranda¡¯s panic, he felt sorry for her. He told them exactly what Cassandra had said. Miranda didn¡¯t believe what he said. She shook her head in disbelief. ¡°The baby was fine, and | left her at the gate of the orphanage. How could she die? | didn¡¯t kill her! That was her destiny! She was doomed to die! It has nothing to do with me.¡± Miranda thought, ¡®It was not my fault! That baby was doomed to die!¡± ¡°Leo, help me. Don¡¯t let Cassandra find that woman. If she shows up, your father will leave me.¡± Miranda was terrified at the thought of those deste and cold nights in the past. Benjamin could never for Benjamin could never forget his first love. Miranda wondered why she had to live in that woman¡¯s shadow after so many years. ¡°Mom, you...¡± Leonardo felt that his mother waspletely beyond help. [e) He thought, ¡®How could Mom say such things? That was an innocent baby! How could she me the baby for not surviving?¡± He felt that he had never understood his mother. ¡°Mom, that baby died because you abandoned her. You should be responsible for it.¡± Matthew didn¡¯t care about other things and said it directly. Miranda pped him. ¡°What nonsense are you talking about? | don¡¯t need to take any responsibility. You''re talking nonsense.¡± Miranda looked at Matthew as if he were her enemy. Matthew tilted his head and covered his face. Then, he nced at Miranda and left with a wry smile. But he thought, ¡°Why can¡¯t | say it?¡± The next day, Kayden took Yasmine and Jessica to Springmount Townhouse to find Cassandra under their threat. The moment Cassandra opened the door, Kayden raised his hand and said, ¡°Cassandra, I¡¯m sorry. | didn¡¯t mean to let them know your address. | just couldn''t withstand the pressure from my mom and Aunt Jessica.¡± These two women were so powerful. They even threatened him with arranging blind dates! And the worst part was that Yasmine actually took out a thick stack of photos. There was. no need to guess. The photos must be of nobledies. It was so terrifying that Kayden couldn¡¯t think about anything more horrible! As a result, he had no choice but to bring them here. Cassandra smiled faintly. She didn¡¯t care much about it. Then she said, ¡°Mrs. Yates, pleasee in.¡± Their attitudes towards her were good yesterday, so she thought she should treat them. politely. However, Yasmine and Jessica couldn¡¯t ept the way Cassandra called them. 0 Chapter 174 65% Yasmine nervously held onto Cassandra''s hand and said, ¡°Cassie, what¡¯s going on? It has only been one night, and you don¡¯t ept us as your family?¡± To them, ¡°Mrs. Yates¡± sounded colder than addressing a stranger. Cassandra just nodded and said, without further exnation, ¡°Juste in first.¡± Hugo had prepared a lot of fruits before leaving, saving her the trouble. Cassandra brought a te of watermelon and blueberries and ced the te on the coffee table. ¡°Cassie, don¡¯t scare us. Are you no longer treating us as your aunts?¡± asked Jessica. She felt a bit uneasy too. Cassandra exined patiently, ¡°As for the paternity test, | don¡¯t know how to believe it. At least, the reason Maximilian gave me was not enough for me to convince myself to be a part of your family. ¡°Besides, the matters between Benjamin''s family and me have caused quite a stir. | believe you should all know about it. So, for now, | don¡¯t want to acknowledge any family.¡± If there was another misunderstanding, she really couldn¡¯t bear it.Content held by N?velDrama.Org. Hearing this, Kayden was a little unhappy and said, ¡°How could youpare our family with Benjamin¡¯s? Even Benjamin is a nobody to me, okay? You know the way Thomas and | get along with each other. Do you think our family is a ce where family members scheme against each other? At least there is no fake daughter in our family. You are the only one.¡± Kayden had to make sure the cousin he finally found came back to his family. Even Keh, who wanted to be Cassandra¡¯s boyfriend, would have to pass his test first. Cassandra said, ¡°Mr. Yates, | understand what you¡¯re saying, but | hope you can. understand me.¡± Yasmine and Jessica were a little worried and regretful. They regretted not having found Cassandra earlier. Otherwise, they could have taken her out as their daughter. But they also understood that it was normal not to be able to ept it for a while. ¡°Well... We''ll give you time to think about it, and we won''te to disturb you often. But we should meet asionally, right?¡± Yasmine tried to persuade Cassandra. She added, ¡°By the way, | bought a lot of dresses for you. | got them yesterday. | thought you would live in the Yates manor in the future, so | put them all into the room [e) prepared for you by Maximilian. ¡°I''ll have Kayden send them over to youter. Please don¡¯t refuse me.¡± Jessica interjected, ¡°I also bought you a lot of gifts, from childhood to adulthood.

The notion of bing family was just an excuse. If she couldn¡¯t ept it emotionally, she would hardly acknowledge them as family. Although disappointed, Yasmine and Jessica could understand Cassandra. They just hoped that Cassandra would return to the Yates family as soon as possible. They thought that they must ensure that Kayden and Thomas made her feel happy and warm. They knew that Thomas and Cassandra were taking part in the same show. They could let Thomas take care of her more. ¡°Well, it''s up to you. We are a family anyway. Since you don¡¯t like it, we can prepare something else for you,¡± said Yasmine. It seemed that Yasmine¡¯s understanding was a bit superficial. Cassandra thought, ¡°Why does she still want to buy me things?¡± ¡°Well, let''s talk about itter. But you have to take the imported snacks | bought. Clothes can wait, but snacks will expire if kept for too long.¡± Jessica thought that children at this age would be in a better mood if they ate more snacks and sweets. While sitting, she found that Cassandra enjoyed sweet fruits. She was confident that Cassandra wouldn''t refuse the sweets she bought. Cassandra seemed to hesitate. Kayden seized the opportunity and said, ¡°Cassie, just ept them and see which ones you like. And I''ll buy you more.¡± It was necessary to care for her in all aspects. After all, in Benjamin''s home, Cassandra had suffered a lot. Kayden thought that he had to make up for it as Cassandra¡¯s cousin. Besides, he should deal with Leonardo and the other so-called brothers. At first, Keh wanted to know about Cassandra¡¯s past and did some research. But Keh said nothing to him. It was also because Keh knew that she had returned to the so-called home and suffered all kinds of grievances that Keh couldn¡¯t resist going back. 0 Chapter 175 Although Keh didn¡¯t mention it to anyone, Kayden knew the reason. Kayden thought it was time to find Leonardo and the others. Cassandra just smiled and said nothing. She thought, ¡®Do | still need anyone else to buy things for me now? In other words, am |cking people to buy me things? Hugo, Jeremiah, Cyrus, Jonathan, Marcus, Timothy, and Keh. Which one of them wouldn¡¯t buy me what | want? ¡®| just don¡¯t need it. Cassandra was stunned. It turned out that there were so many friends around her without being noticed. What was more, she included Keh unconsciously. sep 65%%% After Kayden had sent Yasmine and Jessica home, he was about to leave. But Maximilian stopped him. ¡°What are you up to?¡± asked Maximilian. He thought that Kayden was outside all day and didn¡¯t do anything serious. Kayden smiled mysteriously and said, ¡°Grandpa, I¡¯m going to do something honorable. I¡¯m nning to seek revenge for Cassie.¡± He briefly talked about Cassandra''s experience in Benjamin¡¯s family and the family¡¯s bias. Maximilian was so angry that the cane in his hand kept knocking on the ground, and his face looked serious and solemn. ¡°How dare they! You, go ahead and teach them a lesson!¡± said Maximilian. He thought, ¡®How dare they treat my granddaughter like that!¡± With Maximilian¡¯s permission, Kayden drove to the hospital alone. He went to the ward and saw that Benjamin didn¡¯t wake up. Life support was keeping Benjamin alive. It was said that if he didn¡¯t wake up within a month, there was a chance he would enter a vegetative state. If he did wake up, he 111 Chapter 175 would be paralyzed. Kayden thought, ¡®Considering all the bad things he did, is this what he deserves? ¡°It must be his fate... When Leonardo saw Kayden, he was stunned at first. He wondered why Kayden was here. He never had a good attitude towards Kayden in the first ce. Kayden was one of the Yates family. And he, Leonardo, also had the samest name as Kayden did. Leonardo knew that Benjamin had always wanted to be close to the Yates family, but their family was way behind. Benjamin had to copy everything. However, there was a huge difference between them. ¡°Oh, Leonardo, long time no see. I¡¯m relieved to see that you are not doing well.¡± Leonardo had a tired look on his face, probably because of the troubles in his family, which had taken a toll on him. But seeing him not doing well made Kayden feel good. Kayden thought, ¡®At least Cassie will be happy if she knows about it.¡± Leonardo''s face stiffened, feeling a bit of disdain. He knew Kayden was still so annoying. Therefore, Leonardo said with a tone that was not so friendly, ¡°What are you here for? | don¡¯t remember inviting you.¡± Kayden smirked and said, ¡°What are you talking about? If you invite me, | won¡¯te. | came here just because you didn¡¯t.¡± He looked at Leonardo disdainfully and showed a hint of contempt, which was very eye-catching. After a while, Frederick, Matthew, and Yohannes came back. Jasper and Raymond were all lying in their ward, noting to this ward. Kayden looked around. It seemed that everyone was there. He knew from Keh that Cassandra beat Jasper yesterday, so he shouldn''t get out of bed now. Kayden said, ¡°It seems that everyone who can get off the bed is here, right?¡± Leonardo said impatiently, ¡°What the hell are you doing? If you have nothing else to do, please leave.¡± 0 10:31 Wed, 28 Feb Chapter 175This content is ? N?velDrama.Org. G 657 ¡°Don''t worry. | will leave on my own.¡± Kayden looked at the four men and said, ¡°Are you always bullying Cassie when you are at home? Who do you think you are? Do you really think Cassie cares about your family?¡± Hearing this, Jasper was unhappy. Kayden¡¯s words were rude to him. He wondered if Cassandra went to the Yates family andined. He thought, ¡®How can she be so shameless?¡± Instead, Leonardo looked calm and said, ¡°What right do you have to question us? Even if the four of us are not qualified to be her brothers, it seems like you don¡¯t have the right to lecture us.¡± He was already very guilty about what happened to Cassandra. Now, with Kayden¡¯s words, he felt even more embarrassed. Kayden snorted coldly and looked at Leonardo contemptuously. He said, ¡°Well, I¡¯m the real cousin of Cassandra. She is from the Yates family and has nothing to do with you guys. | will take back what you have done to her He thought, ¡°Cassie is too kind not to beat you up.* His words left the four people present stunned. Even Benjamin, who was lying on the bed, had his heart skip a beat, but no one noticed it.. ¡°What do you mean?¡± Obviously, Leonardo didn¡¯t believe what Kayden said, but Kayden¡¯s serious look and Matthew''s words made Leonardo a little suspicious. Kayden said, ¡°There¡¯s no deep meaning, just the literal meaning. Although | can¡¯t. exin why Cassie was found to have a parent-child rtionship with Benjamin, it doesn¡¯t affect the fact that she is the child of my family. | believe that when Cassie¡¯s biological parentse back, there will be an exnation.¡± Kayden gloated at their astonished faces and felt a little happy. He added, ¡°There¡¯s one more thing that | think you should know. ¡°Your father¡¯s first love has been found. After finding out that her daughter had been dead for eighteen years, she now wants to kill your mother. Be careful. Although we advised her to pursue legal avenues, we can¡¯t stop her from wanting to take revenge.¡± Chatper 176 Chapter 176 Jeremiah and Kayden coborated to discover Benjamin Yates¡¯s first lover. Although the Falcon Special Operations Force possessed an extremely sophisticated intelligence system, Jeremiah¡¯s hacking skills far surpassed their capabilities. ¡°Next time, inform Keh to poach Jeremiah to the Falcon Special Operations Force.¡± While one was in charge of locating the woman, the other had to travel to the location. to track down her. Their cooperation was quite tacit. The woman they found should be here tonight, and then something fun could be expected. Leonardo and others changed their faces. He thought, ¡®How on earth did they discover her so fast?* Leonardo could not help but look at Benjamin, who was still lying on the bed. Leonardo hoped his father could wake up and make a decision for him. With a more scornful grin on his face, Kayden continued, ¡°I heard that the reason why a patient would keep in thea is that he couldn¡¯t let go of a strong conviction. If we stimte him with something he cares about, there¡¯s a chance he''ll wake up fast.¡± ¡°| think you can tell him the truth in his ear,¡± he said, turning to face Leonardo and the others. ¡°For example, after his current wife killed his daughter, his first love-the daughter¡¯s biological mother¡ªcame back to get revenge on him and his wife. m sure he will sit up and awaken all of a sudden.¡± Leonardo and Frederick clenched their fists. They wanted to teach this man a lesson. They wondered, ¡®Why was he so mean? Couldn''t he just shut up his mouth?¡® ¡°The four of youbined can¡¯t even defeat me, Kayden remarked after observing their response. ¡°How dare you?*, He thought, ¡®What a bunch of stupid and evil brats!¡± Unconsciously, Leonardo loosened his clenched fist. He admitted that the four of thembined were no match for Kayden, just like he had said. Although they were aware that Kayden was a soldier, they were unaware of his superior. Kayden was very agile. After all, they had overestimated themselves. They shouldn¡¯t make things worse for the Yates family at this point. 4144 64% Chapter 176 With a mocking nce at Frederick, Kayden said, ¡°Wanna give it a go? How about you give me five strikes first? As long as you manage to hit me once, | will admit defeat.¡± Despite his attractive appearance, Frederick was the most dimwitted member of the Yates family. He wouldn¡¯t have decided to use his appearance to be a celebrity otherwise. The remaining members of the Yates family had achieved something in various fields. But Frederick could only rely on his remarkable appearance to set foot on the showbiz. Frederick was unwilling to admit defeat. Kayden¡¯s words were simply an insult to him! ¡°Come on!¡± ¡®Not a big deal! I¡¯m not afraid of him!¡¯ Frederick said to himself.This content is ? N?velDrama.Org. Lifting his gaze, Kayden thought, ¡®You would be the first to taste my fist as you had ndered Cassie on Twitter. Kayden took a quick look over the ward. It was quite spacious to fully disy his moves. ¡°Go ahead right here. | can beat you up without taking up too much space.¡± Frederick became extremely enraged by Kayden¡¯s words and began to strike Kayden with his fists. Frederick was still not able to get close to Kayden even when Frederick let him strike five moves first. Kayden thought, ¡®He can¡¯t even stand firm, if he was sent to the training camp, Keh might wear him out to death.¡¯ Kayden started to retaliate after Frederick had used up all five moves. Frederick felt lightheaded after being smacked twice by him. Then he kicked Frederick out and gave him a blow to the head. He moved quickly and neatly, showing no signs of dy. ¡°Ouch!¡± ¡®What a piece of shit.¡± ¡°Frederick, you are too frail. If not because of your brother Jasper, who distracted Cassie¡¯s attention, you wouldn¡¯t have stayed unharmed from her yesterday. And both of you would have to suffer!

Instead of bothering her, why not think about how to exonerate mother?¡± Kayden said, looking at the woman who walked in. It was Miranda. ¡°This time Benjamin¡¯s first lover asked Jonathan to be herwyer,¡± he continued. your Leonardo was speechless. He really hoped to never hear this name again in this life. Then he red at Miranda and walked away. Ignoring him, Leonardo dialed the emergency number and sent Frederick into the emergency room. ¡°Leo, what happened? Who did this to your brother?¡± All Miranda had to do for her job was go to Fallvale Mansion every day and talk to the man there about saving Yulissa. She got along with him for a period and eventually began to believe that he was superior to Benjamin. She decided that given Benjamin¡¯s present condition, it would be best for her to take Yulissa with her and move on. Regarding her sons, she showed no concern. But she had a duty as a mother to figure out what happened to her son after he was injured. Leonardo was growing increasingly exhausted. ¡°It is alright. He just got beaten.¡± Miranda became enraged upon hearing this. ¡°Why are you acting soposed after he was beaten? Howe you didn¡¯t call 9112¡± Growing agitated, Leonardo remarked, ¡°Kayden was simply trying to avenge Cassandra. How do | defend myself to the police? Is it wrong for Kayden to vent his anger on me for his sister?¡± Leonardo had a feeling that something significant was vanishing from his life and that he was unable to capture it or keep up with it.. Confused, Miranda wondered, ¡®Who is Kayden''¡¯s sister?¡¯ Leonardo didn¡¯t want to see his mother anymore. ¡°I¡¯m going outside to get some fresh air.

She thought it wasmon to exchangebor for food. However, Keh could think of the idea of bringing some Drieso snacks for the grannies. Keh was really living up to his reputation. Keh smiled but kept silent. He just took it as apliment for his men. ¡°I''m going to record the show tomorrow.

Benjamin¡¯s first love would arrive tonight, and Jeremiah and Hugo would follow up on the particr issue. They could rest assured knowing that Jonathan would handle thewsuit.

Could we discuss a more upbeat 92% Chapter 177 topic?] Karen was shocked to hear this and tremblingly attempted to wipe her hands. She was embarrassed, but Cassandra noticed it and said, ¡°Don¡¯t be nervous, Karen. He is also an ordinary man. It¡¯s simply a job, so you can treat us the way you always did.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry about it, Keh said with a nod of agreement. It¡¯s only a gift from us. Later on, we still need to bother you.¡± Karen waved her hand and said, ¡°No, it doesn¡¯t bother me at all.¡± Amelia thoughifully took out post-it notes and a pen from her pocket, wrote down the way to eat each special snack, and pasted them on the corresponding items. She was aware that despite not attending school for a few years, the elderly couple was still able to recognize arge number of words. She therefore made an effort to write as neatly as possible so Karen could easily read them. ¡°Karen, I¡¯ve noted down all these on the paper. Read it before you eat them. You''re going to love it!¡± Amelia sprang up and pointed to the post-it note in the bag, adding, ¡°Well, let¡¯s go find Uncle and help him collect cucumbers.¡± As they went by here, Amelia and the others had already noticed the cucumber field. Crisp and refreshing, fresh cucumbers are a summertime favorite! Chatper 178 Chapter 178 The three of them headed to Karen¡¯s cucumber field. Amelia found that there were at least several acres ofnd there. In addition to the tomato field, Karen¡¯s family owned a sizable farm in this area. Taking advantage of the morning, she went joyfully to pick cucumbers. As it would be too hot to do so after noon. Cassandra got going quickly as well. Since she appeared to have be ustomed to having Keh next to her, when she reached out her hand, he knowingly gave her the cucumber basket. Everything went without a hitch, and Amelia didn¡¯t appear overly shocked by the scene. The most likely exnation was that Keh was chasing Samantha. Amelia then simply observed them from behind. She collected the cucumbers by herself and ced them in the basket. This time, as usual, they helped collect cucumbers. In exchange, Karen prepared fresh ingredients for them, but this time she gave them more. She prepared chicken and arge piece of pork, dried fish, rice, and glutinous rice, as well as a variety of vegetables.Content held by N?velDrama.Org. n, seated in front of the monitor, was forced to suppress a smile at the sight of this, thinking, ¡°This team happened toe across a generous family.¡± It was reasonable, though, given that theypleted their work promptly and effectively, leaving Karen satisfied. When Cassandra saw that there were even more ingredients than before, she felt a little ttered. ¡°Karen, this is too much for us.¡± In a swift reply, Karen said, ¡°You''ve already paid a good amount of money toe here. Although | never visited Drieso before, | am aware of how expensive those gifts are and how you supported our work. For us, this is nothing. They are not expensive; they are only livestock raised on our farm and veggies grown there. Hope you don¡¯t mind.¡± Keh noticed that thest few sentences were familiar and that Karen had said them. the previous time they were there. The team felt a little embarrassed when Karen forced the ingredients into their hands. They decided that they woulde back here the following day toplete the work and leave without saying goodbye. They wouldn¡¯t let Karen spend any more money on 10:24 Thu, 29 Feb UGG Chapter 178 them. As they had chicken, they could use it to cook some dishes. ¡°This noon, should we eat a bitter? How about we make a Chicken Mars, then a spicy chicken, a pork chop and a vegetable sd?¡± Cyrus, who was seated in front of the TV, had never seen Cassandra so at ease before. Cassandra also cooked meals for them before. But this was the first time that he saw her. being so proactive in giving advice. Maximilian Yates along with his two daughters-inw were also watching the livestream. He felt sorry for his granddaughter. None of the children in the Yates family know how to cook except the one who had been missing for 19 years. Cassandra must have endured a lot of hardships outside to be proficient in farming and cooking. Thomas said that the food cooked by Cassandra was delicious, and although Maximilian wanted to cat her meal, he was unwilling to see his granddaughter to be too tired. After hearing Cassandra¡¯s advice, Keh smiled and said, ¡°I will be your assistant following your arrangements.¡± (Wow! Assistant? Keh is too considerate! My husband doesn¡¯t even know what''s in the kitchen] I''m jealous of her as well. Is he still the notoriously vicious Keh? He doesn¡¯t fit the rumors Do you prefer this Keh or the Keh from the legend?] This one is simply my Mr. Right.] Don¡¯t overthink it. Remember how vicious Keh used to be? He only appears to be nice.] Keh could even kill his brother. He broke his brother¡¯s legs and left him dying. How could you believe he is considerate? He is a devil and a murderer!] [Are you serious? You must havee to disseminate rumors. What a jerk! Could someone please kick him out?] Help! Help! Somebody here spreading rumors of murders!] [e) 10:24 T. FES Chapter 178 (Am | the only one who thinks that this might be true?] 92% When they got back to their ce, Cassandra went into the kitchen. Keh followed her and prepared to cook some rice. Amelia was speechless. Keh took the only work that she could handle. Could it be that Keh didn¡¯t want her to enter the kitchen? ¡°I''ll wait outside, Samantha. Call me if you need help!¡± Amelia shouted out loud at Cassandra to get some attention from her. Cassandra smiled just like a spoiled child. ¡°Keh, could you please make the side dishes for me? I¡¯m going to chop and make the Chicken Mars.¡± Keh took the knife from her and said, ¡°Let me handle it. You go prepare the ingredients.¡± It is better to leave this type of manualbor to him. At the army base, he was ustomed to engaging in simr activities with fellow soldiers. Keh gutted and chopped the chicken quickly and deftly, which was amusing to watch. But it might be a different story if other people did it. [Wow, Keh is so handsome even when he is chopping. | love him!] [Let me cheer for the couple! They''re so sweet! | love them both.] [I never imagined that as a girl who loves boy¡¯s love, heterosexuality would eventually conquer me.] [I don¡¯t believe it if they aren¡¯t acquainted. Take a look at how tacit they are. It¡¯s not like they had been acquainted for only half a month.] [Can we have Keh alone?] [No way. Could you win over Keh, Ms. Jenkins?] [LOL. It¡¯s Keh who pursues Samantha, okay? They areparable.] Keh was the chef and Cassandra the assistant this time. ¡°How am | going to let a girl cook every day? It is such a demanding job. You can help. me or just sit aside. I''ll handle this from now on.¡± 10:24 hu, 29 Feb Chapter 178 Cassandra was touched by his words. However, she was willing to do this, and it was not demanding for her. ¡°You''refortable to be with, so I¡¯m ok with it.¡± Thest dish was vegetable sd. There was a soup, a vegetarian dish, and two meat dishes for the three people. These dishes looked very appetizing. The scent of the sp icy chicken and Chicken Mars wafted into Thomas''s kitchen, but they still didn¡¯t know how to cook. Moreover, due to Luna¡¯s fault, this morning¡¯s work was basically in vain. [Can you stop criticizing Luna? Not everyone is born to know how to work!] [Yes, Luna has been putting in a lot of effort. Why can¡¯t you see that?] [Effort? Do you mean that she is making an effort to eat, or to destroy the vegetable. roots? Are you aware of the financial loss the farmers will suffer in the morning as a result of her?] [That''s right. You never think about the damage she caused, being a city girl cannot. justify her fault. Thomas is also a rich kid born in Drieso, but has he gone so far as Luna? Being a city girl is not an eptable defense!] [If she can¡¯t do farm work, just stop messing around. | am tired of her!] Thomas swallowed uncontrobly when he asked about the taste of the s picy He was so hungry. His cousin was making his mouth watering again. chicken. Chatper 179 Chapter 179 187 Raymond was in a daze in the ward, not knowing whether he was regretting or resentful. After checking on him, the nurse turned on the TV. ¡°Watch TV for a while to rx,¡± the nurse suggested.Content held by N?velDrama.Org. Unexpectedly, what the nurse opened was the live broadcast of Hello, Life. The interaction between Cassandra and Keh made Raymond angry, and his hands were trembling. He thought, ¡®It is all Cassandra¡¯s fault. She didn¡¯t invite Dr. Quirke for me, and she set me up! No, it is Yulissa. If she hadn¡¯t grabbed the steering wheel in the car and left me at the scene of the ident, | wouldn¡¯t have be like this. If Miranda wasn¡¯t too confident and insisted on waiting for Jace to treat me, my hand would not be like this. All my current tragedy is caused by my own family, and it has nothing to do with Cassandra. Haha, it really has nothing to do with her. She just gave me a push. She doesn¡¯t want to save my life. She just does not want me to die too easily, and get no retribution. It would be better for me to die now. Why is Cassandra so cruel? Even if I¡¯m not her biological brother, she shouldn''t be so cruel to a stranger! When Yohannes came in, he saw Ray watching the variety show recorded by Cassandra. In order to prevent him from being emotionally unstable, Yohannes turned off the TV directly and said, ¡°There¡¯s nothing to watch. Have a good rest.¡± Raymondughed sarcastically, ¡°Yohan, except for my hand, all my other injuries have been cured long ago. No matter how long I stay in the hospital, my hand won''t get better.¡± ¡°Don''t say that. There will be a way out. Don¡¯t be so pessimistic.¡± Yohannes couldn¡¯t evenfort himself when he said this, and he didn¡¯t know how he said it. Now that he thought about it, Cassandra was kind enough to him. At least he still had sound hands. Raymond and Jasper¡¯s hands would never get better in this life. But he just lost his dream. He had other work to do and wouldn''t starve to death. Raymond sneered, ¡°Yohan, can you believe that? If you don¡¯t believe it, do you think | will still believe it? Is it possible?¡± Yohannes was dumbfounded. He wanted to go out and buy something to eat, but he saw Miranda looking around in the hospital. She seemed to be looking for Leo, but she didn¡¯t know where Leo was. Fred was injured, and Matthew was in Benjamin¡¯s ward. ¡ã L A¡ì 92% Chapter 19 It seemed that there was no other way, so she came to find them in this ward. The fact was the same. Miranda didn¡¯t know what to do. She said. ¡°Yohan. Ray, you have to help me. | don¡¯t want to go to jail!¡± Dam n Cassandra, she actually found Benjamin¡¯s first love. Compared with 19 years ago, she is still as charming as before. However, she actually wants to kill me. She is such a vicious woman! Miranda thought. Yohannes was confused and asked worriedly, ¡°What¡¯s wrong, mom?¡± Raymond also forgot his sadness for the time being. It seemed that Miranda''s problem was more serious. ¡°Your father¡¯s first love is back. She wants me to pay for her daughter¡¯s life. That bi tch is back.¡± Miranda was so frightened. She thought. That woman came to me today. We used to be calm, but she suddenly went mad and rushed at me with a fruit knife. She was talking about killing for my life. If | hadn¡¯t run so fast. | would have died under that bi tch¡¯s knife. Yohannes presumably understood. You mean, the mother of the baby you threw away is here?¡± ¡®Does Cassandra really find that person and want to kill Miranda? Yohannes wondered. ¡°Yeah, | did not do it on purpose. It was that her daughter was short-lived and it had nothing to do with me. Why did shee to me?¡± Miranda hadn''t realized her fault yet. and she was even ming the little girl for her short life. Yohannes was shocked by Miranda¡¯s absurdity and couldn¡¯t speak. ¡°| heard that she is here to go to court. She won''t do it in private, will she? Mom, don¡¯t worry, she won''t hurt you.¡± Raymond said indifferently. Since they wanted Miranda to be punished by thew, they wouldn¡¯t hurt her. However, this sentence did notfort Miranda but made her more afraid. ¡°| don¡¯t want to engage in awsuit, | don¡¯t want to go to jail, and | don¡¯t... Miranda said. Yohannes and Raymond were stunned by their mother¡¯s nagging. They felt that she was insane and didn¡¯t know what to say. At this time, an uninvited guest came to the ward. It was Jonathan. Yohannes wasn¡¯t familiar with him, but Raymond had met him. 0 Chapter 179 Jonathan pushed the frame of his spectacles, smiled slightly, and greeted politely. ¡°This is Mrs. Miranda Yates, right? I¡¯m entrusted by Ms. Lily Sanchez to file a civilint with Miranda. The court session will be held in three days, so please don¡¯t forget it.¡± Then he took out an envelope from his briefcase. It was a civilint. Miranda didn¡¯t dare to get it. Why did it be like this? ¡°If you don¡¯t appear in court three dayster, there will be a suspicion of evading responsibility and the sentence will be heavier. After all, it is a baby¡¯s life. You killed her. Her mother naturally wants to find an exnation from you,¡± Jonathan suddenly grinned, looking a little scary. ¡°Jonathan, didn¡¯t you say that you are Cassandra¡¯s privatewyer? Why did you take this case?¡± Raymond asked impolitely. ¡°Is there any problem with Ms. Yates entrusting me to be Ms. Lily Sanchez¡¯swyer?¡± Raymond was stunned. He wondered, ¡®Howe? What kind of friendship does Cassandra have with that mistress? Why does she help her? Didn¡¯t she hurt the Yates family badly enough?¡¯ As soon as Miranda heard the word Cassandra, she began to scream and roar, ¡°Cassandra, it''s that bi tch again. Why did we bring her back in the first ce? She is a jinx!¡± ¡®If it wasn¡¯t for her, Lisa wouldn''t be in jail. If it wasn¡¯t for her, | would not have been brought to justice. If it wasn¡¯t for her, the Yates family wouldn¡¯t have be like this! It¡¯s all Cassandra''s fault, Miranda thought. Jonathan''s words became increasingly sarcastic, ¡°Cassie was so unlucky to be brought home by you. Do you think the Yates Group is so good? It counts for nothing for Cassie. She can easily earn more than the umted turnover of the Yates Group in the past. two years. Do you think she cares about the Yates family? ¡°It''s just the DNA test showing that she is Benjamin¡¯s daughter. That''s all. Isn¡¯t it strange to see her excelling every day without you? In fact, she¡¯s even better than now. What you see is only the tip of the iceberg. You brought everything upon yourself. No one else can me.¡± Jonathan didn¡¯t want to say this, but what Miranda said was so disgusting that he couldn''t bear it. ¡°She is not the child of the Yates family at all. Why should she target the Yates family like this?¡± Miranda thought that since she was not the child of the Yates family, she should be grateful to them for bringing her from the countryside to the city. Chatper 180 Chapter 180 Jonathan didn¡¯t talk too much with them, and it was useless to say more now. It was true that Miranda would be put on the pin of shame in court and tried publicly. This kind of person should be sentenced to life in prison! Miranda held Yohannes¡¯s hand uneasily and wanted him to think of a way out. Raymond looked at her coldly. He could have interrupted just now, but now he didn¡¯t want to say anything. She brought this upon herself, no one else was to me. Yohan, what about Leo? Where does he go?¡± Miranda¡¯s backbone now was Leonardo. She couldn''t feel at ease without him. Yohannes nced at Raymond and saw him shrugging his shoulders, turning to Miranda and saying, ¡°We didn¡¯t see Leo today. We don¡¯t know where he went.¡± Everyone in the hospital didn¡¯t know where Leonardo was. His phone calls couldn¡¯t be reached, and his messages weren¡¯t answered. ¡°What the hell is he doing all day? He hasn¡¯t answered his phone. Think of a way to let hime back as soon as possible.¡± Miranda couldn¡¯t help but want to teach her sons a lesson. These boys were not as sweet as Yulissa.Content ? provided by N?velDrama.Org. She thought, ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter. Lisa will be out in a few days, and the procedures for being released on parole are almost over. At that time, | will take Lisa and my private money to live in other ces or go directly to Fallvale Mansion. I''ve called countless times, but no one answered. Maybe Leo is busy.¡± Yohannes had a bad feeling. And it didn¡¯t take long for this feeling toe true. They received messages at the same time. [Frederick, Jace, Yohannes, Matthew, and Ray, I¡¯m away.

It is all of you who make me leave. | found that | didn¡¯t really know anyone of you.] [I don¡¯t have the right to say that you treated Cassandra badly, because | was also an aplice in the first ce. So what she does now is what we deserve.] [And mom, take good care of her. All of you should leave more money for yourselves. It¡¯s not that | don¡¯t trust Mom, but she wants to keep the money for Yulissa. If you still think of her as your sister, forget it. Think of yourself.] 10:25 Thu, 29 Feb u GG. Chapter 180 92%El.

You should go on your own with the rest of the way.] [I don¡¯t know where | will go. Don¡¯t call the police or look for me. Maybe one day, | wille back by myself.] Leonardo left. To put it bluntly, he was a coward. Yohannes and Raymond looked at each other in surprise. Yohannes thought, ¡®Leo left and left this mess for us? | don¡¯t think | can handle it. Fred is also lying in bed and needs to be taken care of. Who has the energy now? At present, | and Matthew are the only healthy ones who have not been beaten yet. But with the age of 22, what could we do? Leo is so selfish to leave us alone. Frederick was pushed into this ward. ¡°Leo... ¡°Mom?¡± Frederick''s words suddenly paused. Miranda frowned and asked, ¡°What happened to Leo?¡± ¡°Nothing. Leo goes out for a few days and is expected toe back soon.¡± Frederick told a lie. | can¡¯t show Miranda the message, and it is estimated that she will make a fuss again after reading it. But why Leo doesn¡¯t treat Yulissa as his sister now? She''s truly our sister.¡¯ If Leonardo knew that Frederick was still thinking like this, he would be pis sed off. When Yohannes arrived, there were already many people in this room except Jasper who couldn¡¯t get up. In the production team. Thomas had a sd for lunch and soon got hungry in the afternoon, but he didn¡¯t have anything to eat. Cassandra suddenly walked up to him and quietly gave him a chocte. ¡°Food, it can. make you full.¡± Cassandra¡¯s carelessness made Thomas stunned, but he still epted it with pleasure and opened the package to eat. n was surprised. Chapter 180 ¡®What does Thomas eat just now? What is it? Haven¡¯t we already checked that none of the guests have snacks? No, Keh¡¯s suitcase, that suitcase of specialties for the fellow vigers, is mixed with chocte? But the camera didn¡¯t get it!¡± n¡¯s head was buzzing at this moment, and he directly reminded her in a voice-over, ¡°Ms. Jenkins, guests are not allowed to eat snacks. Please take out the chocte.¡± Cassandra put the chocte into her mouth, chewed it, and looked at Thomas. ¡°Do you see the chocte?¡± Thomas was overjoyed, but he still said calmly, ¡°No.¡± n was speechless. What nonsense! ¡°n, do you mean chocte? Who has it? Thomas is hypoglycemic. If there is no food. and sugar, he would faint.¡± Cassandra kindly cautioned, intending to scare the director out of staring at her choctes. However, her words made Thomas stunned. ¡°How do you know | have hypoglycemia?¡± ¡°| see it,¡± Cassandra replied. Thomas was surprised. ¡°n, do you want me to faint in the production team?¡± Thomas didn¡¯t go but said to n. into details ¡°n, let¡¯s have a barbecue this afternoon. Do you have a grill and beer?¡± Cassandra was a little greedy for barbecue. In summer, crayfish and beer were perfect for barbecue. ¡°Yes. We will meet all your requirements, but we need to exchange beer for the fruits of yourbor,¡± n replied. ¡°What kind ofbor?¡± Keh also came out at this time. He was curious about what they were doing. After Cassandra exined to him in a low voice, he understood. ¡°There is a big fish pond 1.25,miles away. We need you to fish out 15 fish for us in exchange for barbecue grills, charcoal and beer,¡± n said. Cassandra frowned. Was that all? She asked, ¡°Anything else?¡± ¡°We also have barbecue ingredients. We need 40 fish for exchange,¡± n added. 92% Chapter 180 Cassandra asked, ¡°If | can get so many fish, why don¡¯t | just grill them? Why would I trade these with you?¡± It didn¡¯t make sense. Why not just grill the fish? There was no need to change the ingredients. She also had a lot of ingredients there. The meat sent to her could be used to make streaky pork, and three roasted fish, two roasted eggnts, and corn were enough, wasn''t it? n answered, ¡°Since you are going to have a barbecue, two teams cane together and you should get us 50 fish at a discount.¡± Luna said in a sharp tone, ¡°Barbecue? Isn¡¯t it very unsanitary? My stomach is not very good.. Chatper 181 Chapter 181 Luma just couldn''t stand Cassandra¡¯s indifferent appearance. She thought Cassandra was deliberately seducing male guests and pretending to be aloof. And asionally, she would speak with a smile and pretend to care about others. Luna thought. Thomas is my team member. When will it be her turn to care? When Thomas heard Luna¡¯s words, his face darkened instantly. Even n didn¡¯t look much better.Content held by N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Since you think the barbecue is unsanitary, you don¡¯t have to eat it. You can just cook for yourself.¡± Thomas replied coldly. Now he knew that Cassandra was his cousin, so he didn¡¯t need to care about anything. He just needed to unconditionally protect her. Amelia was unhappy and said, ¡°Since Luna doesn¡¯t want to eat, let''s prepare the food for the five of us. Mr. Mn should have it, right?¡± Jayce was afraid of being excluded by the divo and diva, so he hurriedly said. ¡°Yes. | haven¡¯t eaten barbecue for a long time, and this is all | want.¡± He was telling the truth and jokingly. It wasn¡¯t easy for him to get close to Amelia and Samantha How could he let it go? Keh also nodded and said, ¡°We won''t use too many ingredients for five people.¡± Therefore, Keh volunteered to negotiate with the director, hoping to reduce the number of fish. 30 is a bit too many.

She doesn¡¯t even give Luna a chance to say anything. ¡°Cassandra, you''ve gone too far!¡± Luna said, and then she ran into the room. Cassandra was a little puzzled. What happened? Did it have anything to do with her? Keh handed her two skewers of beef and said, ¡°Ignore it. Just eat.¡± Cassandra took a bite of the beef and her eyes lit up. ¡°Wow, it¡¯s so delicious.¡± Keh smiled and continued to barbecue for Cassandra. Jayce felt that this time he was really full.

Yohannes and Raymond ran away from home and left Drieso. Frederick stole the property ownership certificate of the Yates¡¯ Mansion, went to the hospital to put Benjamin¡¯s fingerprint on it, and sold the mansion. It¡¯s estimated that someone will go force Miranda and Yulissa to leave tomorrow.¡± That was indeed good news. Cassandra wondered how would Miranda react when she knew that Frederick had sold the only ce she lived.. She was probably gonna regret giving birth to these sons. Her private money had been transferred long ago, and she was still holding the bank cardcently. Now Yulissa was out, she wouldn¡¯t suffer with Miranda. There would be a good show.

It wasn¡¯t that he wasn¡¯t serious about what Cassandra had asked him to do, but the disappearance of Leonardo was a good thing for both him and ine. So, he didn¡¯t care if the surveince video was tampered with or not. At this time, Leonardo, who was experiencing deep suffering, not only had fear but also regret in his heart. He was on his own Desert Ind. Every time he came here, he just hovered over the sky and didn¡¯t dare tond. There were so many wild animals in this ce that people who came here couldn¡¯t survive at all. The reason why it was called Desert Ind was that except for wild animals, nes, ships and yachts wouldn¡¯te here. Anyone who wanted to ask for help or do anything would be useless. Leonardo didn¡¯t know how he got here, but he had been here for three days. There was no food, only seawater. The wild animals here were bigger and bigger than the previous ones he saw. He felt that he couldn¡¯t hold on any longer. In the past three days, he had been covered in bruises, and must walk with all his strength. ¡°So this is why Cassandra hates me.¡± Leonardo huddled under a tree. He repeatedly confirmed that there was no danger before squatting here. He listened to Yulissa back then and wanted to teach Cassandra a lesson, even sending her to Desert Ind. So she hated him so much. Now that he came here, he realized how horrible this ce was. As a girl, of course she couldn''t stand it. No wonder she hated him so much.

They had a heart-to- heart talk. During this period of time, they would live their own lives first and then go to Yulissa¡¯s biological father if there was any difficulty. Yulissa also readily agreed, but she wasn¡¯t reconciled. She thought, ¡®Why is my biological father so rich but isn¡¯t willing to recognize me? Didn¡¯t Mom say that he¡¯s not married?

Aman sat straight on the sofa, threw his briefcase onto the coffee table, and looked at Miranda and Yulissa. ¡°Why haven''t they moved out of this house?¡± He said to his subordinates. While saying, he exposed therge tattoo on his arm. Seeing this, Miranda trembled with fear. She stepped forward tentatively and said, ¡°Sir...

She picked up the property ownership certificate on the coffee table. The address was right, but the owners weren¡¯t Benjamin and her anymore. She thought, ¡°Who sold my house?!¡± ¡°No, this must be fake. You''re lying to me!¡± Miranda threw the certificate back. She didn¡¯t believe it at all. ¡°You have a son named Frederick, right?¡± Miranda¡¯s heart sank. She thought, ¡®Did Fred do this?¡± ¡°Yes...¡± ¡°| bought this house from him. If you want to confirm, you can go ask him. I''ll only give you one hour. If you don¡¯t move out, I¡¯ll let my men help you.¡± The man didn¡¯t say much. He hadn''t looked around the house yet, so he wanted to see if there was anything that needed renovation. ¡°This, this, and that... Throw them all away. Those are all fakes. Shame on you.¡± He pointed to the vases and ornaments in the living room. They were all not to his taste and fake. He thought, ¡®When did the Yates family be so broke?¡± ¡°Smash this disy cab as well. It¡¯s so ugly.¡± Then his two men smashed the disy cab with sledgehammers. ¡°Ah!¡± Yulissa was frightened by such a scene and screamed. Miranda hurriedly hugged Yulissa tofort her. Miranda was so anxious but she couldn''t get through to Frederick. She couldn''t even get through to Matthew. On the second floor, in Yulissa¡¯s bedroom, the man said, ¡°This bedroom is quite spacious. Take it down and renovate it. Connect it with the room next to it and make it my master bedroom.¡± Yulissa heard downstairs that her bedroom was going to be demolished. She thought, ¡®No! Not my bedroom! That''s my treasure!¡¯ ¡°No, no, you can¡¯t demolish my bedroom. You can¡¯t!¡± 11:56 Fri, 1 Mar ti G. Chapter 186 Regardless of the fear, she hurried to the second floor.

You have to pay for them!¡± The tattooed man frowned impatiently. ¡°Throw her out! She''s so noisy!¡± At this time, Miranda also came up and immediately stepped forward to stop the bodyguards while saying, ¡°Let go of her!¡± Yulissa hugged Miranda and cried sadly, ¡°Mom, my bedroom and cloakroom were both smashed!¡± Miranda hugged Yulissa and said, ¡°Lisa, don¡¯t cry. I''ll buy you a new one.¡± As aresult, she saw that one wall of Yulissa¡¯s bedroom was smashed through, and the furnishings in another bedroom... It was her bedroom! ¡°You''ve gone too far. | haven''t verified it clearly, but you smashed this ce into s lll call the police and sue you!¡± a mess. The tattooed man wasn¡¯t afraid at all. Heughed sarcastically and said, ¡°Call the police. Do you need me to help you? Let¡¯s see which side will the police take.¡± This kind of provocation method worked well for people like Miranda. She called the police directly, and it took 20 minutes for the police toe. After repeated confirmation and inquiry, they confirmed that this house belonged to the tattooed man. So they said to Miranda in a low voice, ¡°After verification, this is indeed. the house that this gentleman spent 40 million dors on. The property right belongs to him. We have no control over how he smashed his own house.¡± Chatper 187 Chapter 187 Looking at the so-called legal notarized information, Miranda felt dizzy. Miranda couldn''t believe that her beloved son sold her house without her consent. Miranda thought, ¡®He was so cruel that he had the heart to watch me, and his sister be homeless!¡± The man with the tattooed armughed and said, ¡°Now you see it clearly. | bought it legally. You and your daughter can get out now.¡± At this time, even the police could not intervene. It was normal for the man who bought this house legally to forbid their entry.

Anyway, it had nothing to do with him. Why should he be generous? He was not a charity man. ¡°Sir...¡± Miranda wanted to plead for mercy. She couldn¡¯t argue about the ownership of the house in front of the police. Even if she tried, she couldn¡¯t let the policemen stand on her side. ¡°If you don¡¯t leave within half an hour, | will throw you out. Nothing in this house cant be taken away.¡± The man said harsh words to Miranda and Yulissa because he really thought they were bitches. ¡°Mom, why don¡¯t we go pack up...¡± Yulissa thought, ¡®If we clean it up now, at least we can take away all the valuable things.

She looked at the man in fear and asked, ¡°Is there anything. wrong?¡± ¡°Of course, I''ll unpack and check to see if you have anything that shouldn''t be taken away.¡± ying with his phone, the man said carelessly. Miranda was a little unhappy, ¡°What we took away were our own things. We didn¡¯t take the furnishings of these rooms.¡± Miranda made up her mind that she wouldn''t let him check their suitcase. After all, she took away a painting worth millions of dors. If this man saw it, everything would be gone. The man seemed to be thinking about something. He pped the table and said, ¡°Okay, then you can go.¡± Miranda secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking, ¡®Fortunately, he didn¡¯t open the suitcase to check it. After Miranda and Yulissa left, one of the man¡¯s subordinates asked confusedly, ¡°Boss, why didn¡¯t you let us check the box just now?¡± The man pped the subordinate heavily on the shoulder, ¡°Do you think they can go far? Don¡¯t forget who sent us to buy this house. His subordinates suddenly realized that it was true that they couldn¡¯t go far away. ¡°Keep smashing.¡± His purpose was to smash the Yates residence. Everything else was none of his business. Just as the man said, Miranda and Yulissa had just walked out of the Yates residence.

However, they found that the surveince videos in that area were being upgraded and maintained, and all the events that happened during those two hours were not recorded. Miranda was so broken down.

Even Sylvia was happy and said, ¡°No, | think we should invite more people. This is something worth showing off.¡± Cassandra hurriedly stopped him, ¡°No, no. This is too exaggerated.¡± Lucas was also shocked by his wife¡¯s thought, ¡°Honey, don¡¯t bother. We can go to eat with our families.¡± Sylviapromised, ¡°Fine. Just our family.¡± Cassandra was a little shocked and looked at them in disbelief, ¡°Are you really going out for dinner?¡± She thought, ¡®Isn''t this kind of thing done at home?¡± ¡°Yeah. You''ve heard about our ideas.¡± Cassandra was defeated by this idea. [e) Fri, 1 Mar Chapter 190 ¡°Lucas, Sylvia. It was just an offer. It¡¯s not a big deal.¡± As the mayor, he often ate outside. Was this appropriate? n ¡°Everything about you is a big deal to me and Lucas.¡± Sylvia didn¡¯t agree with Cassandra at all. Such a good child should be treated well. Cassandra was touched by her words. ¡°Okay, I''ll go to the Blossom Group. Then we can have dinner.¡± ¡°Okay.¡± An hourter, Cassandra arrived at the Blossom Group. This shareholders¡¯ meeting was initiated by Cyrus. Before her arrival, all the shareholders were waiting for her. Seeing hering, Cyrus got up and took the initiative to make way for the middle. seat. He smiled lightly and said, ¡®Finally, you''re here.¡± Instead of sitting in the center seat, Cassandra sat first on the right. ¡°I¡¯m not sitting there. | came to listen, not speak.¡± Cyrus had seen such a move. Cassandra was thergest shareholder and the boss. behind the scenes in Modern Beacon Synergy, but she rarely appeared at every shareholders¡¯ meeting. He thought, This girl iszy! ¡°Well, I''ll do it.¡± Cyrus looked at everyone, and his assistant handed out the documents to each shareholder one by one. He said in a deep voice, ¡°Directors, ording to our previous agreement with you, | will double the money Benjamin owes you within three months. Ihave done it.¡±= ¡°In front of you are thetest financial statements. You can have a look at them.¡± Two minutester, a shareholder said cautiously, ¡°Mr. Jacobs, it¡¯s not that we don¡¯t believe you. We have been cheated by Benjamin for too long. This report should be true, right?¡± Everyone also looked around and thought this sentence was right. ¡°Isn''t it true? It''ll be fine if you see the money. | don¡¯t know exactly how much each shareholder deserves. In ten minutes, they should all be transferred to the ount. It might as well wait.¡± [e) 11:57 Fri, 1 Mari G Chapter 190 It took him less than two months to double the 7 billion dors that Benjamin owed them. It was hard to imagine the actual revenue. Cassandra raised her eyebrows slightly, thinking, ¡®Herees the fortune! Chapter 191 Only Cyrus knew that thanks to one person, he could earn so much in just two months. That was Keh. Keh said it was his men who wanted to vent their anger, but actually, it was Keh himself. He had special feelings for ine and he misunderstood Cyrus¡¯s rtionship with ine, so he asked his men to make trouble for Cyrus. But somehow, they targeted Blossom Group too, probably because they misunderstood something. After figuring everything out, they quickly stopped attacking Cyrus and even became Cyrus''s business partner. The most profitable projects of Blossom Group were all from the Zelinski Group. They were all given by Keh. The Blossom Group was a mess left by Benjamin originally and fewpanies wanted to cooperate with them. But now, it was supported by a bigpany, so everything went very well. After the cooperation with the Zelinski Group, endlesspanies indicated their willingness to cooperate with the Blossom Group. It was Keh¡¯spensation for the Blossom Group. So, Cyrus was as busy as ever. He was busy dealing with all kinds of problems in the past and now he was busy dealing with all kinds of cooperation projects. Ten minutester, the stockholders received messages that notified them that the dividends were already paid to them. Only then did the shareholders believe that there was really no falsification or tricks, and they would be paid directly. They were grinning from ear to ear. Suddenly, someone said loudly, ¡°Mr. Yates, thanks for finding us such a capable CEO.¡± ¡°He''s right.¡± ¡°Without Mr. Yates or Mr. Jacobs, we would all lose our money.¡± ¡°Well, it seems that we were right not to leave with the money back then. Now, is there anypany more promising than the Blossom Group?¡± Cassandra also unlocked her phone. She was surprised that she received the message too. It was another delightful ie. Cyrus could not help but lower his head and smile when he saw her bright smile with glowing eyes. He thought, ''Money-grubber. She¡¯s already got so much money but she¡¯s still so happy when she has a little bit more.'' Cyrus said, ¡°Besides, I have one more thing to announce. The Blossom Group has started preparing for an IPO. Next...¡± Cassandra thought Cyrus was a business genius. In such a short period of time, he made the Blossom Group have a firm footing and kept developing it. Now, an IPO was put on schedule. He totally changed the Blossom Group, which was originally on the brink of bankruptcy, in only two months. And Cassandra, who held 50% of the shares, could just sit and wait for the money to be transferred to her ount. She thought it was a terrific experience. Cassandra was sitting in the office and having a meeting, which hadsted for an hour and a half. It surprised Cyrus. He thought ine would leave directly after she received the dividends. Unexpectedly, she sat through the meeting. In the hospital, Matthew was left alone to take care of Benjamin. He couldn''t figure out why his family ended up like this. Jasper suddenly disappeared. Leonardo went abroad and Matthew couldn''t get through to his number for a long time. Yohannes and Raymond left several days ago, and Matthew wondered how things went with them. Frederick was better. He left Matthew several millions of dors and escaped. Later, Matthew found out that Frederick had so much money to leave to him only because he sold the Yates residence. Now, Matthew was left to take care of his father alone. How could he deal with it alone? He murmured, ¡°Dad, why did our family end up like this?¡± Matthew talked to himself in front of the hospital bed but nothing and no one responded to him. But out of his sight, Benjamin¡¯s finger moved slightly. Matthew said, ¡°Dad, I had a dream that my brothers and I worked together to kill Cassandra. I dreamed about it several times. It feels so real! But Cassandra is actually still alive...¡± He thought, ''Why does she hate the Yates family so much that she wants all of them to end up miserably?¡¯ When he was doing a program abroad, he first dreamed about it. He dreamed about it more often after he came back home. This was also the reason why he couldn¡¯t say any vicious things in front of Cassandra. When he looked at her, he would be reminded of that dream. Suddenly, the door of the ward was pushed open with a bang. Someone shouted, ¡°Frederick, get out!¡± It was Miranda¡¯s voice. She was back again. Frederick said, ¡°Mom, you...¡± Bang! Thinking about what Frederick and Yulissa had done, Miranda was furious on her way here. The moment she saw Matthew, shepletely lost control of herself and pped him across the face. Matthew looked at Miranda in disbelief and asked, ¡°Mom, why did you p me?¡± Miranda said, ¡°Tell me where Fred is. Did you sell my house with him?¡± Miranda was hysterical. She depended on the house. But now, it was gone. Miranda shouted, ¡°Why is there no money left in my private bank ount? Did you steal my money?¡± She went to the bank to check the ount statement but her money was never transferred to any of their bank ounts. She couldn¡¯t figure out where her money was. Matthew said, ¡°Mom, if I had money, I wouldn¡¯t be here now. I would leave here without saying goodbye to you like what Fred and Jace did.¡± Matthew decided not to tell Miranda about his own savings and the house. He thought if she knew about them, she would probably steal them and even give them all to Yulissa. So, he thought it would be safer to hide them from her. Miranda didn¡¯t believe him so she said, ¡°I don¡¯t want to listen to your bullshit. You have to give me the money and find Frederick!¡± The market value of the Yates residence was at least about 200 million dors but it was sold for just 40 million dors. Miranda thought Matthew was unforgivable. Matthew said, ¡°Mom, I don¡¯t know where I could find him. Everyone else has left so I¡¯m the only one to take care of Dad. Otherwise, I would have left too. The shit of the Yates family is a lot of trouble. I lost my job because of Yulissa. What am I going to live on if I don¡¯t have a job?¡± Matthew didn¡¯t expect that Miranda would still be thinking about money now. Hearing that Matthew wanted to earn a living on his own, Miranda suddenly calmed down. She said, ¡°Matthew, you must give me your sry if you have a job.¡± Matthew felt infuriated.Content held by N?velDrama.Org. Miranda asked, ¡°Do you hear me?¡± Matthew said, ¡°Yes.¡± Miranda was displeased with Matthew¡¯s silence just now. ¡°Then why didn¡¯t you say anything?¡± Matthew said, ¡°I¡¯m not going to support your precious daughter. You depend only on all others, don¡¯t you? You went so far as to ask me for a job to support her. It¡¯s disgusting.¡± Miranda said, ¡°Why are you saying this about her? She is your younger sister. What¡¯s wrong with you supporting me and her?¡± Matthew¡¯s anger red. ¡°She is your daughter and should be your responsibility. I¡¯m done with this. If you want my money, get it from someone else.¡± Chatper 192 Chapter 192 8877%0 It was a rare chance for Cassandra to have a break. She wanted to eat at the restaurant where Keh once had taken her. Cassandra remembered that Kayden owned that restaurant. But then she gave up this idea and decided to find Keh. She was very close to where Keh was anyway. Thinking about this, she carried her backpack on her back and went out. Cassandra rang the doorbell. After a while, Yannick opened the door. When Yannick saw Cassandra, he felt like he had found his savior. He said, ¡°Ms. Yates, you''re finally here. Come in!¡± Cassandra thought Yannick seemed more enthusiastic than he usually was so she wondered what was going on. Cassandra said, ¡°Yannick, why are you...¡± Yannick looked inside the house and whispered in Cassandra¡¯s ear, ¡°Mr. Zelinski is losing his temper. Ethan and Lamont are about to break down.¡± Cassandra felt speechless. She thought, ¡®So, that¡¯s why you''re so happy to see me here. She said, ¡°I''ll leave you guys alone then.¡± After saying that, Cassandra nned to turn around and leave. It would be totally okay to have a meal with him next. time.

He made them think they were useless. was worse, Yannick was beaten. Yannick was beaten up this morning. What was worse, No one could see his injuries. But beneath his clothes, he had wounds all over his body. Cassandra said, ¡°I don¡¯t think | can help you.¡± She refused Yannick without hesitation. She didn¡¯t want to talk to Keh now. It was the worst timing. [e) 11:57 Fri, 1 Mar G. Chapter 192 Yannick said, ¡°Ms. Yates, please help us.¡± Suddenly, they heard a voice. ¡°What are you all doing there?¡± Obviously, it was Keh¡¯s voice and he sounded angry. When Keh noticed that Yannick was holding Cassandra¡¯s hand, he became angrier. He red at Yannick, which frightened Yannick. So Yannick immediately withdrew his hand. Yannick said, ¡°Mr. Zelinski, Ms. Yates wants to leave. | just want to keep her here.¡± He shouted in his mind, ¡®Please, don¡¯t get me wrong! ¡®| don¡¯t want to get beaten up again!¡± Are you Keh was stunned.

So | thought | should choose another time.¡± Keh red at Yannick and then turned to Cassandra with a gentler look. Ethan and Lamont, who were behind him, couldn''t believe their eyes and thought Keh was totally a different person. They thought, ¡°Was he struck by lightning just now? Why is he so gentle?¡¯ Keh said, ¡°It¡¯s done. Come in.¡± Cassandra shook her head. ¡°No need. | just wanted to go to the restaurant where you took me earlier so | came here to check if you have time.¡± As for the name of that restaurant, she didn¡¯t even see that sign. Although she could drive, she still had a poor sense of direction. She couldn''t remember the roads that she never covered herself. ¡°I''m free.¡± Keh looked down at his watch and said, ¡°It¡¯s about time to have something to eat. Let¡¯s go.¡± Keh was somewhat joyful. It was the first time that Cassandra came to find him when she wanted to eat something. He thought, ¡°This is a great progress. ¡®| will be soon, very soon. 11:57 Fri, 1 Mar tiG Chapter 192 After dealing with those vicious people of the Zelinski family, Keh would tell Cassandra everything. 6.77% Cassandra nodded. ¡°Okay.¡± She followed behind him obediently, carrying her backpack. Keh had put some snacks in his car so Cassandra¡¯s mouth never stopped on the way to the restaurant. Keh ordered some dishes that Cassandra liked. Soon, the dishes were served. Cassandra forked up a piece of squab breast and found it very delicious. She forked up another piece of roasted chicken and found it delicious too. She thought the food here was as good as ever. Keh said, ¡°If you like it here, feel free to ask me to apany you here.¡± Seeing that Cassandra really liked the dishes, Keh¡¯s mood, which had been gloomy all morning, lightened. Cassandra said, ¡°I don¡¯t want to bother you. You can give me the address so | can drive here myself.¡± She would never directly admit that she couldn¡¯t remember the way so she said this to get the address from Keh. Keh said, ¡°I have no address. Don¡¯t you notice that this restaurant doesn¡¯t even have a sign?¡± That was true. It didn¡¯t have a sign. Cassandra wondered how he found this ce. Keh wanted to keep it secret so he did not tell Cassandra. It was no trouble for him at all to take Cassandra here to have lunch with her. They enjoyed the delicious food in a private box. Suddenly, they heard amotion outside the door. ¡°Mr. Zelinski! Don¡¯t you think it¡¯s not a proper thing that you''re here for lunch without telling me?¡± Keh and Cassandra remained silent. The door was pushed open. Kayden appeared at the door. [e) Chapter 192 Kayden was stunned when he saw Cassandra. He immediately looked at Keh in disbelief with a trace of vignce in his eyes. Kayden said gantly, ¡°Cassic, why are you here? Do you think the food here is good? If you like it, I¡¯ll ask the cook to go to your ce and cook for you.¡± Kayden ignored Keh and sat next to Cassandra. Cassandra felt speechless. She said, ¡°Thanks but no need. I''ll juste here once in a while. | won''t find. something delightful if | eat it every day.¡± She refused Kayden directly because she didn¡¯t like his enthusiasm. Kayden was a little disappointed. ¡°Okay, it¡¯s up to you.¡± Suddenly, Kayden¡¯s eyes lit up. He said, ¡°Let me give you a membership card here. Then you never need to pay for anything here. Even this dude, Keh, doesn¡¯t have one of these!¡± Keh was angered by Kayden¡¯s words, especially ¡°this dude¡±. Cassandra said, ¡°No need. When | want to eat here, Kenne will take me here.¡± Kayden was shocked when he heard the word Kenne. He thought, ¡°What¡¯s going on? Is there anything happening between them? Why did she call him Kenne? ¡°This is too intimate! ¡®Why do | feel like I¡¯m losing my sister again right after | just found her?¡± Kayden said, ¡°Cassie, you can also call me if you want to be here. | am the owner of this restaurant. If you¡¯re here with me, you don¡¯t have to pay.¡± Kayden looked greedy, like a wolf that was looking at its prey.

Cassandra said, ¡°Thanks but no need, really. | won¡¯t have to pay today even though I¡¯m not with you.¡± Kayden thought, ¡®So, Mr. Zelinski is going to pay the bill?¡¯ Kayden looked at Keh in disbelief with a warning look but Keh didn¡¯t care about it at all. Ill [e) Fri, 1 Mar El Chapter 192 The feeling that Kayden felt just now became stronger. He thought, ¡®I must go back home and tell Grandpa, my parents, and my aunt. Otherwise, my sister who | just found would be stolen by someone else. If that reall happened, what could | do?¡± He wanted to travel back in time and p himself. He even desperately wanted Cassandra and Keh to have a rtionship before. He thought he was stu pid. Kayden said, ¡°Mr. Zelinski, you are so generous.¡± His tone of voice was clearly showing how angry he was. 77% ¡°Is it really the first time that you realized this?¡± Keh put down the fork, raised his eyebrow, and turned to Kayden. ¡°I¡¯ve always been generous to Cass.¡± Kayden felt speechless. Chatper 193 Chapter 193 Keh raised his eyebrow arrogantly as if he was showing off. He didn¡¯t mind being mean to anyone except Cassandra. He would give her whatever she wanted. If he didn¡¯t have it, he would do everything he could to get it. But Cassandra had no idea what they were thinking about and continued to eat the food. Kayden said, ¡°Cassic, why don¡¯t you visit Grandpa sometime? Since you started to host the show, he could only see you on TV. To be honest, he looks a little bit pitiful.¡± Kayden didn¡¯t want to continue the conversation with Keh. He finally saw Cassandra so he wanted to seize this opportunity to invite her home. Maximilian originally wanted Cassandra to live with the Yates family but she refused. Besides, Kayden¡¯s mother and Jessica persuaded him to give up this idea. However, the show took ten days and several days had passed since Cassandra came back. She seemed to have forgotten the Yates family. She didn¡¯t even go home to visit the family once. Maximilian was angry and acting like a spoiled child at home. Kayden felt kind of helpless. As soon as Cassandra picked up a piece of squab breast, she paused for a moment. Then she still gently put it in her mouth. Kayden looked quite eager, which made Keh frown. Keh said, ¡°Kayden.¡± At this moment, Kayden was not afraid of anyone at all. He didn¡¯t care about it. He could see Cassandra at any moment but Maximilian couldn''t. Maximilian had just known that Cassandra was his granddaughter but he didn¡¯t even see her in the past half a month. Kayden said, ¡°Ken, | know what you want to say. | didn¡¯t mean to force Cassie to admit us as her family but you know my grandpa¡¯s condition. He couldn¡¯t take any mood swings. He has been feeling guilty for 18 years and finally found Cassie. Naturally, he wants to spend more time with her. | just want to make him happy.¡± Maximilian seemed to be in good shape but he was old after all. He was weak. There had been signs that he could have a stroke so he couldn''t have any mood swings. That was why Kayden mentioned it to Cassandra just now. He thought if Maximilian had been healthy, they wouldn¡¯t have been in a hurry. They would have had enough time to make Cassandra feel the warmth of her family. Maximilian didn¡¯t find the show on TV. He knew that Cassandra was back. But she never visited him so he knew what was going on.Content provided by N?velDrama.Org. So at home, Maximilian was always sulky and didn¡¯t eat much. He just watched the rey of the 1/4 10:26 Sat, 2 Mar Chapter 193 variety shows repeatedly. His look was distressing. Cassandra immediately lost her appetite. 1645% Cassandra said, ¡°Mr. Yates, | can go with you to visit him but | can¡¯t promise that | will make him happy! Kayden cared about his family a lot. She had seen news rted to this in her previous life and she knew what Kayden just said was sincere. Keh thought their lunch was ruined. But it was not a big deal since it was about Maximilian If it was only about Kayden, Maximilian wouldn''t have totally ignored him. After lunch, Cassandra and Keh followed Kayden to the manor of the Yates family. In the living. room: Maximilian was watching a TV with an extrarge screen. He was watching a variety show recorded a few days ago. Yasmine and Jessica were watching the show with Maximilian. Maximilian kept sighing. He said. he. Jessica, do you think Cassie is ming me?

Yasmineforted Maximilian ¡°Dad, Cassie won''t me you. She just needs more time. She has suffered a lot because of Benjamin and the other scumbags. She may not want to...¡± Jessica said. ¡°Yes, Yasmine is right. But there are things that we can do to help. We can be nice to Cassie and take care of her to let her feel that we are her real family. Moreover, we will love her. She is the princess of the Yates family.¡± Cassandra¡¯s foot, which was about tond on the floor of the living room. paused and then Cassandra withdrew it. Maximilian asked, ¡°Really? But Cassie hasn¡¯t been here for half a month. She promised toe to visit me the next day when she left but she hasn¡¯t shown up yer¡± Maximilian felt he was wronged like a child who had just been refused to have candies. Yasmine sighed helplessly. She didn¡¯t know how to answer this question. Thest time she went to Cassandra¡¯s ce, she knew Cassandra¡¯s attitude exined a lot, Yasmine wanted to respect Cassandra. She knew it must be hard for Cassandra to ept the truth in a short time. Besides, Benjamin was bad to her. Yasmine thought she had been Cassandra, she would have had no need for love from her family at all. Kayden turned to Cassandra at the door and wondered why she didn¡¯t get inside. Then Cassandra walked straight into the living room. Kayden yelled, ¡°Grandpa, Mom, Aunt Jessica, Cassie is here!¡± Yasmine. Jessica, and Maximilian were Chapter 193 64%2 shocked. They turned their heads around and saw Cassandra standing right in front of them as well as Keh. Yasmine said, ¡°Cassie, you''re here!¡± Yasmine was the first to realize what was happening. She hurriedly stepped forward to hold Cassandra¡¯s hand. Her enthusiasm made Cassandra a little bit uneasy. Kayden pouted and walked to Keh quietly. He thought his mother had never been so excited, not even when she saw him again after a separation of a whole year. ¡°Mrs....¡± Cassandra paused a little and then said, ¡°Yasmine.¡± She wanted to call Yasmine Mrs. Yates at first but she didn¡¯t want to feel sad. Yasmine was somewhat disappointed because didn¡¯t call her Aunt Yasmine. But it was much better than Mrs. Yates anyway. Yasmine thought it was already a sort of progress. Yasmine said, ¡°I¡¯m so happy that you are here. Your grandfather has been talking about you every day recently.¡± Jessica gave a sincere smile, which made Cassandra feel touched. Cassandra walked to Maximilian and saw his hands trembling with excitement. He couldn¡¯t even hold his crutch steady. Cassandra said as gently as she could, ¡°Good afternoon, Grandpa.¡± ¡°Good afternoon, Cassie. Why didn¡¯t you tell me that you wereing here? | could have asked the servants to cook something you like.¡± Maximilian was now certain that Cassandra was really back. Cassandra whispered tofort Maximilian, ¡°Thanks, but there¡¯s no need to do that. | have had lunch.¡± Kayden joked, ¡°Grandpa, she had lunch in my restaurant.¡± Maximilian¡¯s expression changed immediately. He raised his crutch and hit Kayden with it. ¡°You bastard, did you take her money?¡± Kayden felt speechless. Seeing that Kayden was silent, Maximilian was certain that he must have taken Cassandra¡¯s money. He raised his crutch and hit him with it again. ¡°You bastard! It¡¯s your honor to serve your sister lunch. How dare you charge her for the meal? Give her money back to her!¡± Kayden thought he was unlucky. fii) SEND GIFT 120 581, 2 Chapter 193 He said, ¡°Grandpa, Mr. Zelinski paid for the meal, not Cassie. | wouldn''t let her pay even if she wanted to.¡± 64% Maximilian nced at Keh, who had been silent, and then hit Kayden again with his crutch. ¡°Mr. Zelinski invited Cassie to lunch. How dare you let him pay? Now, give his money back to him!¡± Kayden was shocked.

Cass and | just suddenly wanted to eat there. Nothing special.¡± To Keh, as long as it was for Cassandra, no matter how much money it cost, it was worth it. However, he couldn¡¯t say anything like this at this moment. He and Cassandra were just friends. If he directly said this now, he would be kicked out of th house by Maximilian immediately. Maximilian was satisfied with what Keh just said. Cassandra exined casually, ¡°I wanted to go to Mr. Yates¡¯s restaurant but | didn¡¯t know how to get there so | asked Mr. Zelinski to take me there.¡± After hearing this, Maximilian looked at Kayden in a less friendly way. Maximilian said. ¡°Why is your store located in a ce so far away? Cassie didn¡¯t even know how to get there. Give that restaurant to Cassie as an apology.

Kaydenined. ¡°I must have been adopted. Otherwise, you wouldn¡¯t have ganged up to fool me. Maximilian didn¡¯t care about what Kayden said. He knew Kayden was not good at anything but was an expert gastronome and this restaurant was just not a big deal for him. Yasmine said, ¡°Yes, you were a dirty little beggar. | found you in a trash can outside the Yates residence with your father. You looked presentable after a shower so we adopted you.¡± Kayden said. ¡°I have heard this story many times, Mrs. Yates. | must remind you that there were no trash cans outside the Yates residence.

Hurry up and give that restaurant to Cassandra.¡± Cassandra was a little bit surprised hearing them discussing this matter so seriously. She said, ¡°Well, | don¡¯t need it. | will only eat there asionally. | have no interest in managing a restaurant.¡± It was Cassandra¡¯s way of refusing them but the Yates family didn¡¯t care about it at all. Except for Kayden, no one seemed to have heard what she just said. Maximilian said enthusiastically, ¡°Cassie, tell me whenever you want something. | will give you anything as long as you...¡± Jessica smiled and said. ¡°The Yates familycks nothing but a family reunion. When Darren and Leanna will be back is still unknown. But the rest of us should see each other more often. So, Cassie, do you understand?¡± Of course, Cassandra understood it. Cassandra said, ¡°Apart from visiting Maximilian, I¡¯m here for one more thing today. | have something to tell you.¡± She took a deep breath and exhaled deeply. As soon as she said this, Keh knew what she meant. She continued. ¡°I went to live with Benjamin at the age of 18. Those two months were the darkest days of my life. Blossom adopted me and | grew up with her, spoiled. After | lived with my so- called biological parents, what | experienced was extremely desperate. ¡°Although your appearance makes me know that | can be happy after | got rid of Benjamin. But it does not mean that | can ept you as my family. | don¡¯t know why the DNA test shows that Benjamin and me are father and daughter but | do know the reason that Maximilian told me is far- fetched. | can¡¯t convince myself. ¡°To put it harshly, no matter how nice you are to me, you can¡¯t change the fact that my parents abandoned me. No matter what you do, it won''t change. ¡°So, sorry, | can¡¯t ept you guys as my family. | can¡¯t do it. Thank you for your kindness. | hope we can just stay what we used to be.¡± Cassandra bowed low to the Yates family, showing her respect for them. Her words were more than shocking to them What they didn¡¯t expect was that Cassandra not only refused to live with them but also had no intention of treating them as her family. Yasmine was a little anxious. She exined excitedly, ¡®Cassie, it''s not like that. Your parents asked us to pick you up but we werete. They must have had no choice, It is our fault that for 18 years. We will make it up to you in the next, let''s say, 80 years.¡± you suffered Just when they thought the thing that had been torturing Maximilian for 18 years was about toe to an end, cold water was put on their hope. How could she not be anxious about it? Cassandra said, ¡°You all said that they had no choice. Why? Why tamper with the DNA data of 2/3 64% Chapter 194 Benjamin and me? Was it really for me or out of selfishness?¡± Cassandra knew what she said was a bit harsh. But the fact was the fact. It was not something that could vanish if they just didn¡¯t talk about it. Seeing that the atmosphere soured, Kayden wanted to stop Cassandra. She said, ¡°Cassie, let¡¯s talk about it in private, not today.¡± Maximilian was trembling uncontrobly. His pupils were gradually dted. It seemed that he was about to faint. But he managed to hang in there. ¡°Cassie, are you ming me?¡± After saying that, he fainted. The room was si in chaos.

Let¡¯s go upstairs. We can leave after you''re sure that Grandpa is fine.¡± Cassandra was absent-minded. She was very worried but she didn¡¯t want to admit it. The doctor came soon. After a brief examination, he said angrily, ¡°Didn¡¯t | tell you that you must keep your grandfather happy and in a stable mood? Why did he pass out because of emotional turmoil? Aren¡¯t you afraid that he will have a stroke?¡± Yasmine felt her legs weak and she almost copsed on the floor. Chatper 195 Chapter 195 Kayden hurriedly caught Yasmine. Kayden asked worriedly. ¡°Doctor, when will Grandpa wake up?¡± The doctor was still angry. He said a bit sullenly, ¡°I don¡¯t know. If he has a stroke, the consequences will be unthinkable.¡± Cassandra said, ¡°What kind of disease can make a doctor say that the consequences will be unthinkable?¡± Cassandra couldn''t resist the urge but followed Keh upstairs. She heard the doctor speaking when she walked through the door. Seeing that it was a little girl who interrupted him, the doctor didn¡¯t take it seriously. He said to Kayden and others, ¡°The top priority now is to send Maximilian to the hospital for further treatment. He will probably need surgery.¡± Kayden hesitated. He thought, ¡®Surgery? Is it that serious?¡± Cassandra snorted coldly, ¡°Do you even have a medical license? Don¡¯t you know how old he is? What if he dies in the operating room? Will you be responsible for it?¡± Maximilian was about 80 years old. Whether he could survive the surgery was still a question, no matter if the surgery was a sess or not. The doctor said, ¡°Who are you to question my capability? You probably weren¡¯t even born yet when | started my career as a doctor.¡± The doctor nced at Cassandra. He thought she was probably only eighteen or neen years old and she was too audacious to talk to him like that. Cassandra said, ¡°What you said is nonsense. Why can¡¯t | question your capability?¡± The doctor said, ¡°Which part of my words is nonsense? The old man is in a dangerous situation now. He doesn¡¯t have much time. A surgery is inevitable. The doctor had years of experience so he thought he must be right. Kayden couldn¡¯t help but say, ¡°Cassie, Grandpa is in danger. The doctor said before that he couldn''t take any drastic mood swings. Today... Anyway, we should take the doctor¡¯s advice. The doctor had been taking care of Maximilian¡¯s health for many years and he never made a mistake. So, Kayden believed in him. Cassandra said, ¡°If you listen to him and put your grandfather into the operating room. Get ready for a funeral.¡± Cassandra¡¯s words made everyone look at each other in surprise. The doctor felt humiliated. He said, ¡°You''re just a little girl. Stop your nonsense if you know nothing about this.¡± 10:26 Sat, 2 Mar Chapter 195 64% Yasmine looked disappointed. She said, ¡°Cassie, everyone in this family is happy to see you. | know you have your own ideas. Jessica and | don¡¯t want to push you but you shouldn''t have said those harsh words to your grandpa.

You want him to die in the operating room? No matter how much you hate us, you shouldn¡¯t have said this kind of thing!¡± Cassandra opened her mouth but she didn¡¯t know how to exin it. But if they really agreed to surgery, Maximilian would be killed. Cassandra said, ¡°Mrs. Yates, I''ll be responsible for whatever | do. Give me half an hour and Maximilian will wake up. If he doesn¡¯t wake up, you can do whatever to me.¡± Cassandra wanted to make amends so she made a promise. Kayden was displeased. He said, ¡°You don¡¯t know any medical skills. How can you make Grandpa wake up in half an hour?¡± Even though Keh was present, Kayden had to say this. If Maximilian hadn¡¯t passed out, Kayden could have put up with everything. But now, Maximilian was unconscious because of Cassandra. He couldn''t control himself The doctor said, ¡°If you waste more time here, | can guarantee you that Maximilian won''t make it to the hospital. Kayden said, ¡°You...¡± Keh interrupted him and said, ¡°Kayden, you have to trust Cass. She won''t put Maximilian in danger. Kayden turned to Keh in disbelief. He thought, ¡®Why is he defending her? Isn¡¯t she just a student? No matter how brilliant she is, or how good a hacker she is, she shouldn¡¯t push her luck in a field that she knows nothing about! Kayden said, ¡°Ken, you...¡± Keh said, ¡°Did | ever lie to you?¡± Kayden was stunned and thought, ¡°Yeah. Mr. Zelinski never lies to me. If he thinks she can do it, she will make it¡¯ The doctor was about to contradict Cassandra and even wanted to make a bigger bet. But Cassandra didn¡¯t give him a chance. She said, ¡°I know you don¡¯t believe me. It doesn¡¯t matter. You have Whitecrane Hall¡¯s number, right? You know how to reach Hugo, right? You can ask him.¡± Cassandra passed everyone and went straight to Maximilian. She gave him a careful examination and then took out a bag of silver needles from-her bag. Jessica said cautiously, ¡°| have Hugo¡¯s phone number. When we talked about a cooperation project, we left each other our numbers.¡± 64% Chapter 195 Yasmine was a little worried. ¡°Call him.¡±Content ? provided by N?velDrama.Org.

We were once business partners.¡± Hugo said, ¡°Mrs. Yates, what can | do for you?¡± Jessica said, ¡°Well, the thing is, an old man...¡± Jessica told Hugo everything, including that Cassandra offered to rescue Maximilian. Hugo asked, ¡°Is this girl named Cassandra?¡± Jessica said, ¡°Yes, is there a problem?¡± Hugo said. ¡°Yes.¡± The doctor, who was beside Jessica, raised his eyebrow proudly. He thought he was right and Cassandra was just blufling. Hugo continued, ¡°Usually, it must be at a critical moment if she decides to treat someone. However, she never failed to save anyone. If she promised that Maximilian would wake up in half an hour, he will. Don¡¯t worry.¡± Jessica hung up the phone in confusion. Kayden didn¡¯t understand what Hugo meant. He wondered. what was going on. He turned to Keh and asked, ¡°Ken, what¡¯s going on?¡± Keh said calmly, ¡°I guess Cass is the person who cured you.¡± Kayden thought it was unbelievable. He said, ¡°Isn''t it Dr. Quirke who cured me?¡± He turned to Maximilian¡¯s bedroom and then his expression suddenly changed again. He thought, ¡®Is Cassandra Dr. Quirke? ¡°But she¡¯s so young! ¡®How can it be possible? When they still looked shocked, Cassandra finished the acupuncture treatment.

There was only one possibility: Cassandra was Faye. Cassandra smiled and said nothing.

That''s the only thing that matters. | will give you a prescriptionter. Give it to him and ask him to buy the medicines at Whitecrane Hall. There are two kinds of them that are only avable there.

When there was a problem, they would me her unanimously. However, she was indeed a little bit impulsive today. She just didn¡¯t want any so-called rtives to y tricks on her and even take her life.Content held by N?velDrama.Org. She just wanted to seize this opportunity to make it clear. She never expected that Maximilian would pass out because he couldn''t take it. Fortunately. Maximilian was fine. That was all she could do to help him. Keh said, ¡°Cass, you really dislike the Yates family?¡± Keh wanted a definite answer. He thought that people of Kayden¡¯s family were nice so they might be able to make Cassandra feel that she was loved and get over the past. But after hearing what Cassandra said today, he thought he might have made a mistake. He decided that he would never mention the Yates family or put in a good word for them if she really didn¡¯t like them. He didn¡¯t even want Kayden to talk to her again. Cassandra said. ¡°They are a loving family, just like Benjamin and his family.¡± She thought, ¡°Their kindness is only toward their real family, not me.¡± Keh understood what she meant. He said, ¡°Okay, | see.¡± Cassandraughed, ¡°What do you know?¡± Keh said, ¡°Sorry, Cass. | thought you were from Kayden¡¯s family and it was the most loving family that | had ever seen so | wanted you to find a home but | ignored how you felt.¡± Cassandra just smiled and shook her head. ¡°It¡¯s fine. | didn¡¯t express myself clearly.¡± Keh made up his mind that Kayden would never be allowed toe to Springmount. Townhouse again. After driving Cassandra back to her house, he received a call from Kayden. Kayden sounded a little bit worried. ¡°Ken, Cassie...¡± When Maximilian finally woke up, they were all focused on him. The doctor was the first one who noticed that Keh and Cassandra were gone. He wanted to call Cassandra and realized that he didn¡¯t have her number so he had no choice but to call Keh. Keh said, ¡°Kayden, leave Cass alone.

What did Mr. Zelinski say?¡± Kayden said, ¡°Ken wants us to leave Cassie alone.¡± Kayden looked embarrassed. He regretted it a lot. He thought, ¡®Why did | question her capability? Why couldn¡¯t | trust her like how Ken did? ¡®Why did | tell her those cruel things? She had no feelings for this family and now, it is impossible that she will have any! Yasmine copsed on the sofa with tears in her eyes. ¡°It¡¯s all my fault. Why did | tell her those things? | knew what she meant and | said | understood her. Look what | have done.¡± Jessica also regretted it. ¡°It¡¯s my fault. | didn¡¯t believe her and | even called Hugo.¡± Denzel and Devin looked at each other. They had been out for a few hours. When they came back, they heard that Maximilian had fainted and Cassandra had been here but Maximilian fainted because she made him furious. Soon, Keh returned to the Yates residence.

Go to Whitecrane Hall to get the medicines. Cass has told them that you wereing.¡± Kayden took the prescription and looked ashamed. He didn¡¯t even dare to look into Keh¡¯s eyes. He said, ¡°Ken, is Cassie...¡± Keh said, ¡°I paid her to detoxify you and treat your legs. She saved your life.¡± 10-26 Sat, 2 Mar Chapter 196 Kayden felt speechless.

Yasmine turned pale. She almost lost her bnce. She knew it was her fault. Jessica also looked bad. She thought, ¡®So, somehow, we hurt Cassie. ¡®But we were just too worried. So we made a mistake.¡± Kayden said, ¡°Please tell Cassie that | want to apologize to her in person.¡± The prescription in his hand was like a merciless p across his face. Keh said, ¡°There¡¯s no need. Cass doesn¡¯t need it. When he was about to leave, he said. ¡°She just said that you guys and Benjamin¡¯s family were the same sort of people.¡± Kayden wanted to grab his hand but he suddenly froze. She turned a little pale. Maximilian was still sleeping. If he had heard what Keh just said, he would have fainted again. In the hospital, Miranda came to visit Benjamin again. But visiting Benjamin was not her real intention. She just wanted to get money from Matthew. She had six sons but Matthew was the only one who was still here. Chapter 1961 The other five¡¯s whereabouts were mysteries. She thought they were ungrateful. Matthew almost lived in the hospital 24 hours a day now. His house was sold. Miranda thought. Why didn¡¯t he give me some of the money that he got from selling the house?¡± Chatper 197 Chapter 197 Miranda said, ¡°Mat, | have no money. Shouldn¡¯t you give me some? I¡¯m your Mom.¡± She didn¡¯t dare to spend a penny on anything except for the hotel and food. She even used a taxi application and paid the fee using her credit card. Without money, Miranda didn¡¯t know what she could do. She didn¡¯t know where Yulissa had been recently and why she hadn''te back yet. Matthew said, ¡°I have no money. Don¡¯t you have some private money? Why are you asking me for money?¡± He sounded a bit disdainful. He didn¡¯t want to look straight at Miranda. Hearing Matthew mention her private money, Miranda became angrier. She said, ¡°It¡¯s your brothers¡¯ fault. They stole every penny of my money. | don¡¯t have any money now.¡± Matthew was not surprised. At least his brothers had left him some money although it wasn¡¯t in his bank ount. He was afraid that Miranda found his card and transferred the money to her ount. He would lose everything then. He snorted coldly. ¡°You spent billions of dors on Yulissa without hesitation. Why are you so upset that your sons split just tens of millions of dors?¡± Miranda¡¯s expression immediately changed. She felt a bit guilty. She said, ¡°What are you talking about? Just tens of millions of dors? It¡¯s everything that we can depend on. What are we supposed to do now? Your father needs money.¡± Matthew suddenly thought that it was a tragedy for him to have a mother like Miranda. Fortunately, Cassandra didn¡¯t belong to the Yates family. Matthew said, ¡°Dad¡¯s medical bill has been paid. What you really care about is yourself. It''s you who needs money.¡± Miranda shouted, ¡°Matthew!¡± Miranda and Matthew kept arguing with each other in the ward and no one cared about Benjamin, who was lying on the bed. Benjamin¡¯s fingers suddenly moved slightly and his eyes moved too. Suddenly, he made a muffled groan. He sounded like he was in pain. The quarrel between Matthew and Miranda came to an abrupt end. Matthew turned to Benjamin in disbelief. He heard Benjamin groaning in pain on the bed and noticed that his hands were moving. He thought, ¡®Is Dad waking up?¡± 4/4 Chapter 197 He quickly realized what was happening. He immediately went to find the doctor but Miranda just stood there motionless. She was suddenly afraid that Benjamin would wake up now and settle the scores with her. She thought to herself, ¡®No, it¡¯s not going to happen. The doctor said that even if he woke up, he would be hemiplegic. What am | afraid of? ¡®Anyway, he can¡¯t do anything to me now. Soon, the doctor came to give Benjamin a brief examination and said in surprise, ¡°He is indeed conscious now. You have taken good care of him.

But after a long time, no one replied to him. The next day, Kayden came to Springmount Townhouse and blocked Cassandra¡¯s way after she walked out of the gate. Kayden said, ¡°Cassie, | have something to tell you.¡± He had been putting up with it for so long and he couldn''t stand it anymore. He thought he must apologize to Cassandra in person. He knew he had said something wrong yesterday. Cassandra asked, ¡°Mr. Yates, what can | do for you? Cassandra didn¡¯t directly refuse Kayden as she did to Leonardo.. Kayden felt a little embarrassed. But he didn¡¯t beat around the bush. ¡°I¡¯m sorry for what happened yesterday. | shouldn¡¯t have questioned your capability or treated you like that.¡± Cassandra was stunned for a moment and then she remembered that he was talking about what happened yesterday in the Yates residence.

We were just too worried about Grandpa. The doctor had. told us that his mood must stay stable so we said those hurtful things to you. I¡¯m so sorry. Please forgive us.¡± Kayden bowed slightly to Cassandra. Cassandra said, ¡°Mr. Yates, your family is already a loving and happy one. Why do you insist on me joining you? Your solidarity is enviable. But it''s not what | need.¡± When Cassandra was reminded of what happened when they unanimously attacked her yesterday. she knew that they were just feeling guilty and they didn¡¯t really want her to join them. She had suffered for 18 years because they werete. They just didn¡¯t want to be haunted by guilt so they wanted her back. When they questioned and criticized Cassandra unanimously, it was decided that they would end up strangers. Kayden recalled what he, his mother, and her aunt said to Cassandra yesterday too.Content provided by N?velDrama.Org. He turned pale in an instant. He murmured, ¡°| Cassandra said, ¡°Mr. Yates, you are Kenne¡¯s friend so I¡¯m willing to talk with you now. But it doesn¡¯t mean that | have to listen to you. The Yates family is not something that everyone wants. Why do | have to ept you? ¡°Blossom, who adopted me, was seriously ill when | was ten years old. She didn¡¯t survive a year.

She decided not to make the same mistake twice. Even though it was a different family, she thought it wouldn¡¯t make a difference. Kayden suddenly didn¡¯t know what to do. He even felt like his feet had taken root in the ground and he couldn¡¯t move at all. He didn¡¯t know how to respond to Cassandra. He only knew that what they had done yesterday had. really hurt her. He said, ¡°Cassie, it¡¯s not like that...¡± Chapter 197 Kayden was about to exin but Cassandra directly interrupted him. ¡°Call me Ms. Yates. You can also call me Emery like everyone in the information security department.¡± Kayden thought, ¡®I can¡¯t even call her Cassie?

He found the bright sunlight a bit harsh so he frowned. He said, ¡°Where are you going?¡± His mother took him here. He happened to hear the conversation between Kayden and Cassandra just now. He panicked. Cassandra said, ¡°I¡¯m going to Whitecrane Hall. Why are you here?¡± Her attitude toward Thomas was somehow much better. Perhaps it was because he didn¡¯t call her Cassie. Thomas said, ¡°I¡¯m here for you. You saved my life during the show. Of course, | should express my gratitude for you.¡± Cassandra said, ¡°No need. It¡¯s not a big deal.

But | want you to know | am sorry that they hurt you yesterday.¡± Thomas really cared about Cassandra. When his mother told him what happened yesterday, he lost his temper. It was the first time that he became furious. He didn¡¯t understand why they united together to treat Cassandra so cruelly. Jessica knew she was wrong so she wanted to apologize to Cassandra but she felt too embarrassed to do that so Thomas was here. Cassandra said, ¡°Well, | didn¡¯t me them. | understand what they said.¡± Thomas drove to Whitecrane Hall and stopped at the gate. He looked at Cassandra sideways. ¡°Samantha, | think you can be not so sensible. It is my mother¡¯s fault, my aunt¡¯s fault, and even my cousin¡¯s fault. You can just lose your temper or get angry. You don¡¯t have to be so sensible. You never owe the Yates family anything. We owe you.¡± Thomas thought if Maximilian and his parents had been a bit earlier back then, Cassandra would have had a happy and carefree childhood and wouldn''t have suffered so much. But even though she suffered a lot, when she knew the truth, she was calm and just wanted to keep away from them. She didn¡¯t make a scene or ask for anything. She even treated Maximilian after he passed out and prescribed medicines for him. But what had they done? Cassandra said, ¡°Thomas, you have said what you got to say.

However, before he could say another, he heard a crying female voice. ¡°Daddy, you¡¯re finally awake. I¡¯m so happy.¡± Matthew frowned. It was Yulissa¡¯s voice! He thought, ¡°Why is she here?¡± Benjamin¡¯s eyes widened when he heard this voice. He wanted to open his mouth and speak as if an acupuncture point of his was blocked. ¡°Ah...

Sorry, | disappointed you but | will always be with you, Dad.¡± Yulissa¡¯s sudden appearance confused Matthew. He thought Yulissa probably didn¡¯t know why Benjamin fainted. Benjamin murmured, ¡®Bastard child! Fuck off!¡± Yulissa froze. She thought, ¡°What did he say? Bastard?¡± She wouldn''t havee back to him if there had been anyone else that she could turn to. The boys who once chased after her in high school all stayed away from her because she had been in jail. People who were willing to lend her money only gave her a few hundred dors. What could she do with so little money? Even Christine didn¡¯t care about Yulissa. She even made Yulissa¡¯s situation worse. Yulissa was desperate and had no other option. She thought she could put up with it for a few days as long as she could get some money. After that, she would find a ce to hide. But she was called a bastard child by Benjamin right after she walked in. She thought, ¡°Why don¡¯t you just die?¡± Tears streaked her face, which made people feel sad for her.

But when he heard what Miranda had just said, he was about to break down. He shouted, ¡°Fuck off! You bitch! Get out of here!¡± Miranda¡¯s expression changed instantly. She thought, ¡®Ungrateful scumbag!¡± She said, ¡°Lisa, we''ll find a hotel.¡± Deep inside, Yulissa was happy about it. She thought, ¡®So | don¡¯t have to live here. Great! She can afford hotel rooms. She must have some money. | knew she was lying. She showed me the bnce of that bank ount to deceive me. That is too much.¡± After watching Cassandra walk into Whitecrane Hall, Thomas felt a bit frustrated. Soon, Kayden. called Thomas as if he had been waiting Kayden said, ¡°Thomas, how did it go with Cassie?¡± Thomas sighed, ¡°She refused tomunicate with me. | think she is not a heartless person. There must be a reason why she is so ruthless now.¡± Kayden couldn¡¯t help rolling his eyes on the other side of the phone. ¡°There must be a reason. Although Grandpa fainted because of what she said, she cured him in time and prescribed medicines for him. | asked someone about those medicines. Two of them, which are only avable at Whitecrane Hall, are very expensive. But Whitecrane Hall charged us nothing. You can¡¯t believe everything that Cassie said.¡± However, Kayden thought he figured it out a little toote. He wanted to travel back to yesterday and p himself. Thomas said, ¡°Well, let¡¯s think about it. Don¡¯t push my idol.¡± Thomas rubbed his brow. He had never dealt with things like this before so he felt helpless. At this moment, he heard a sound of notification. It was a message from Amelia on WhatsApp. Amelia: [Thomas, do you know where my idol lives? | want to hang out with her.] Amelia finally had two days off so she could have a rest. She thought she should meet her idol since they were both living in Drieso, Amelia thought Samantha should have more free time during the summer vacation. 10:27 Sat, 2 Mar Chapter 199 Thomas suddenly came up with an idea and thought there was still a glimmer of hope. He called Amelia and asked her to meet him in a caf¨¦. He told her that he wanted to ask for her advice. So, they went to the caf¨¦ wearing hats and sunsses. Amelia said frankly. ¡°What do you want to tell me?¡± She thought it must be something about her idol. Or, she wouldn¡¯t have been here. Thomas told Amelia everything that he knew. He thought Amelia must know Cassandra¡¯s thoughts well since she was so passionate about Cassandra. After hearing what Thomas said, Amelia remained silent for a while. Then she said, ¡°You mean, the Yates family, which is your family, is also my idol¡¯s family?¡± She thought, What the hell is going on? | haven¡¯t even seen something as dramatic as this on TV. Thomas said, ¡°Yes, but...¡± Amelia interrupted him and said coldly, ¡°Thomas, maybe you don¡¯t understand what she went through during the time when she lived with Benjamin. You should read Yulissa¡¯s tweets during that time and you''ll know what happened to her back then. Maybe you will find the answer.¡± ¡°She was so happy because she thought she finally had a home. However, on the first day, her room was given to Yulissa. She was framed for bullying that bitch and was locked up in a dark room. They ganged up to bully her. What do you think a person who had been through this kind of crueIness countless times would feel when she experienced the same thing again? She might feel a little bit guilty right after saying those things to your grandfather, but not anymore after you condemned her unanimously. ¡°Speaking of what she said, | guess she must have told one of you guys to keep away from her. You thought that you were making up for her and you were different from Benjamin. But you can¡¯t change one thing.¡± Amelia looked distressed. She continued, ¡°You abandoned her too. Don¡¯t tell me that you were just a bitte and don¡¯t try to exin it to me. Did you go there right after you got the call? If so, just ignore what | said. You told her that your grandfather missed her. But was it because she was his granddaughter or just because he felt guilty? ¡°To be honest, | don¡¯t think she said anything wrong. She should make it clear. She didn¡¯t force you to do anything. She just told you how things were in the past and how things should be in the future. She must be surprised that he fainted. She has done everything she could to make up for it. | know she was not angry or did it in a fit of temper. She just stopped caring about it. So, she thinks forgiveness is not something worth thinking about.¡± After saying that, Amelia pitied Cassandra even more. Amelia knew the man who fainted was old. But she knew how Cassandra felt. It must have been worse than a stabbing pain, Chatper 200 Chapter 200 Amelia said. ¡°Besides, didef she tell you that you were just like Benjamin? She didn¡¯t mean that you were scumbags. She meant that you defended your people who you cared about just like him? She thought Cassandra had stopped believing in family after what Benjamin had done to her. Cassandra must have been putting up with it for a long time. Maybe she was waiting for ber grandfather to calm down. But unexpectedly, a tragedy happened. Amelia thought. When will my idol find a family that she feels she belongs to? Forget about it. She doesn¡¯t need it. She can be happy and shining alone¡± Thomas¡¯ face was a little bit pale. He mped his lips slightly together as if he was thinking about whether what Amelia just said was true. After a while, he thought her analysis was hard-hitting She said. ¡°If you don¡¯t want to make her disgusted with you don¡¯t mention it again. If she really doesn¡¯t care about you, she won''t go to find some herbs to save you immediately when everyone is panicked. Don¡¯t push her too hard. If she does not want to get close to you and your family, | still hope that you can respect her. Amelia felt very sad for Cassandra so she got Cassandra¡¯s address from Thomas and made to buy two cakes although she didn¡¯t know if Cassandra would like them Amelia was outside the Springmount Townhouse. Her head and face were solly covered bac expensive sunsses, and a mask. She walked to the doorkeeper. When the doorkeeper saw her, who had a sneaky look, he picked up his phone, ready to call the police. But Amelia stopped him in a hurry. ¡°Please. I¡¯m here for someone. | will not make trouble.¡± She waved the cakes in her hand like they were something precious and said. Im really here for someone. The doorkeeper¡¯s face didn¡¯t soften. But his attitude was much more friendly. He said. ¡°Which building is she or he living in?¡± Amelia remained silent. She didn¡¯t know. Thomas didn¡¯t tell her. ¡°| don¡¯t know which building she lives in Amelia¡¯s changed tone at the moment when the doorkeeper¡¯s expression changed. She is Cassandra Yates. Can you help me find out which building?¡± The doorkeeper looked at Amelia suspiciously. Who are you? Are you here harassing Yulissa? You guys are crazy. When will you get tired of it?¡± 864% Chapter 200 Amelia thought she was wronged but she knew the reason. Amelia said, Tm not here to harass her. I¡¯m her friend.¡± The doorkeeper suddenly nced at her and then said, ¡°Yulissa is here. Look.¡± It happened that Cassandra wasing back home from Whitecrane Hall. Amelia excitedly said. ¡°Samantha, it¡¯s me!¡± Amelia rushed toward Cassandra. Cassandra raised her head and subconsciously wanted to dodge Amelia because Amelia¡¯s head was totally covered. So she was surprised that Amelia called her Samantha. Then Cassandra knew the person in front of her was Amelia So she stopped walking and waited for Amelia to walk to her. Cassandra asked. ¡°Amelia, why are you here?¡± Few people in the production team knew Cassandra¡¯s address. Cassandra thought Keh couldn''t tell Amelia her address so it might be Thomas. ¡°I''m here for you. | have had nothing to do recently. | thought | should hang out with you since we were both in Drieso.¡± Amelia said excitedly. ¡°I brought you cakes. | hope you will like them.¡± Cassandra gave a bright smile. ¡°Amelia, let¡¯s get inside.¡± She thought, ¡®Wasn''t she afraid that she would be sick when she wrapped up her head?¡® Back in the vi, Amelia took off the cap, mask, and sunsses. Only then did she see the world. clearly. She walked around the vi and said in surprise. ¡°Samantha, aren¡¯t you scared? You live alone in such a big vi.¡± Amelia thought, If | live here alone. | won¡¯t even dare to go out at night¡¯ Cassandra said, ¡°Isn¡¯t it normal to be alone?¡± Cassandra¡¯s rhetorical question stunned Amelia. She didn¡¯t know what to say. After a while, Amelia said, ¡°Samantha, why don¡¯t you move to my ce? Or | can live here with you. We are both single anyway. We can split the bills!¡± It was not that Amelia couldn¡¯t afford a vi. She had two or three houses but she felt lonely when she lived alone. Amelia thought she and Cassandra could take care of each other since they were both single. What was more, she could know more about her idol. She thought it was the best thing that she could wish for. Cassandra said, ¡°If you don¡¯t mind it, you cane here at any time. Don¡¯t worry about the rent. You don¡¯t have to pay me.¡± 64% Chapter 200 Cassandra somehow liked Amelia. Perhaps it was because Amelia trusted her unconditionally. Amelia said, ¡°Deal. | will pick a day.¡± Each of them was holding half a watermelon and enjoying it. Amelia was so excited that she had the same hobby as her idol. They scrolled on the phone and didn¡¯t feel embarrassed. But they were reading different contents. Amelia was scrolling on Twitter while Cassandra seemed to be reading a report. People were different. Suddenly, Amelia¡¯s face darkened, looking down at her phone. There were so many tweets about Thomas and all of them were spicy. She clicked the hashtags curiously, seeing Thomas¡® girlfriend¡°, ¡°Thomas¡® girlfriend is a genius¡°, and ¡°Ten things you should know about Samantha and Thomas*.Content ? provided by N?velDrama.Org.

She thought, ¡®ording to what Thomas said, Cassandra is his cousin. She couldn''t believe that reporters were spreading rumors so ridiculous. She thought, ¡®If you guys can¡¯t do your job well, | can do it for you!¡± Cassandra noticed that Amelia looked hesitant so she asked, ¡°Amelia, what are you looking at?¡± The expression on Amelia''s face was so rich. Amelia carefully handed the phone to Cassandra and looked at her with fear. Unexpectedly, Cassandra just smiled mildly, ¡°Amelia, enjoy the food and ignore these things.¡± Amelia instantly became excited. ¡°No way. | have to make sure if they abused you. Ill curse them!¡± Amelia quickly logged into her smurf ount and found those ounts that had made those Sat, 2 Ma Chapter 200 sarcasticments. ¡°I''ll show you how | make people want to kill themselves!¡± Cassandra shook her head helplessly. Just then, her phone rang. She answered her phone. ¡°Do you need me to help you to solve this problem?¡± It was Keh¡¯s voice. Cassandra smiled gently. ¡°Thanks but no need. | will deal with it myselfter Keh said, ¡°Okay. Are you hungry?¡± Chapter 201 Chapter 201 Cassandra said, ¡°I¡¯m having a cake with Amelia.¡± She had to admit that the cake brought by Amelia was so delicious that she even wanted more. lo buy two ¡°Then you go to dinner after eating cakes with her. If it''s difficult to solve the problem, | can do it for you.¡± Keh was worried about Cassandra. None of thements on the Inte were favorable to Cassandra. There were all abusivements about her. Keh was already in a state of extreme anger. He wanted to solve it directly, but he felt that it was necessary to let Cassandra know about this matter. He thought, ¡®If | interfere too much in her affairs, will she disgust me?¡® That¡¯s why he made the call. Unexpectedly, he was turned down like this. However, Cassandra was not a coward. If She had said that she could handle something well, she would definitely handle it. ¡°Don''t worry, | will deal with it after dinner. Then Cassandra hung up the phone. Cassandra felt weird. As long as she ignored such a trivial matter, it would be fine after a while. However, she said she would deal with it directly because she didn¡¯t want Keh to misunderstand her. Cassandra thought, ¡®It would be bad if Keh misunderstood me. I¡¯d better solve the rumors as soon as possible. Those paparazzi are really crazy to spread an affair between Thomas and me! Looking at Cassandra''s calm face, Amelia knew that she didn¡¯t care about the nonsense on the Inte at all. But just after a phone call, Cassandra changed her mind and said she would deal with it after dinner. Amelia thought, ¡®Who has such magic to change Cassandra?¡± However, as soon as they were ready to go out for dinner, Amelia checked Twitter again and found. a rification. Amelia saw hashtags like, ¡°Thomas''s rification¡°, ¡°Thomas''s rtionship with Cassandra¡± and ¡°Thomas''s sister is also an idol". Amelia felt that theseizens had gone crazy. She thought, ¡°How could everything be at trending topic?¡¯ It was not Thomas¡¯ fault. He had never had any rumors before, so the rumor this time attracted tons of attention. 14 Ill Dreame [e) Chapter 201 Thomas posted his rification: [About the rumors about me and Cassandra on the Inte, | sincerely apologize to Ms. Cassandra Yates for causing you trouble.

Finally, firstly, | like Samantha very much. | am a fan of her. Anyone who likes me should know that. Secondly, Samantha (Cassandra) is still young and my sister. | hope you can stop spreading rumors.] Thomas was sitting in the coffee shop thinking about Amelia¡¯s words, but he found that he was wrong. He thought, ¡®Cassandra knows the Benjamins well. They are all scum. How could she ept the Yates family so easily? Besides, Amelia is right. No matter what happened at the beginning, it couldn¡¯t change the fact that Cassandra had been abandoned by her family. Well, there is nothing wrong with what Amelia said. Grandpa couldn''t stand the strong effect of the medicine and fainted. But Cassandra also made up for it. And the traditional medicine practitioner said that that prescription was the most effective way to treat grandfather''s disease. After taking the medicine for a period of time, there will be obvious changes in the patient¡¯s body. In this way, Grandpa got a blessing in disguise. If it is someone else, it is enough to make Grandpa wake up without going. through the operations. However, Cassandra forgave us and gave us a prescription to treat Grandpa¡¯s body. As for me, though | said that it didn¡¯t matter whether she would forgive me or not. | am also forcing her, isn¡¯t it? That is no difference between me and the regretful Yates family, but my attitude is not so bad.¡± Just as Thomas was thinking about it, he received a call from his agent. He hurriedly asked someone to investigate and rify in person. He thought, ¡®I can¡¯t let this kind of thing destroy my impression in the hearts of Cassandra anymore. That¡¯s really not worth it¡¯ In the hospital, Yulissa sat beside her and checked her phone. Anyway, Benjamin wouldn''t let her get close to him, and she didn¡¯t want to. However, she still needed to pretend to be a filial daughter. Two hours ago, Yulissa put on a show of father¡ªdaughter affection in front of the nurses and doctors. But Benjamin didn¡¯t appreciate it, which made the doctors and nurses disgruntled and they asked her to rest directly. Yulissa sobbed faintly and said in embarrassment, ¡°Well then. Since Dad doesn¡¯t want to see me, | will stay aside and call me whenever you need help.¡± Doctors and nurses were distressed to see such a ¡°sensible and cute girl.. After they left, Yulissa stopped pretending and yed with her phone. She saw the posts on Twitter. Dreame Mon, 4 Chapter 201 Yulissa didn¡¯t expect Cassandra to hook Cassandra to hook up with Thomas. 69% If she remembered correctly. Thomas was the young master of the Yates family. When she was a child, her family would visit the Yates family to show filial piety to the elders. However, at some point they weren¡¯t allowed to go. The Yates family was out of Benjamin¡¯s family¡¯s reach even when it had been a brilliant family. A hundred Benjamin¡¯s families were no match for one Yates family. Yulissa thought, ¡®Cassandra knew how to find a backer for herself. She actually got help from Thomas.¡±This content is ? N?velDrama.Org.

And you, the culprit, are still stirring up trouble here. You still want to encourage Mom to deal with Cassandra? Do you think our family is not unlucky enough? If you have such an idea again, go back to your prison!¡± He just went out to ask a doctor about something, but Yulissa was making trouble here again. Yulissa was stunned. She thought, ¡®Damn it!

Yannick behaved respectfully in front of Keh, just like the other employees of Zelinski Group. ¡°Get Cass a ss of juice.¡± ¡°OK.¡± Florence stared at Yannick in surprise, wondering. What¡¯s wrong with him? Why is he suddenly so respectful? I¡¯ve never seen him like that in front of Mr. Zelinski!* Anyway, she followed Yannick to the lounge. Yannick nned to make some watermelon juice with the watermelons that were sent there earlier. He thought that a ss of ice watermelon juice in summer would make Cassandra happy. Once she became happy, Keh would be pleased, and he wouldn¡¯t pick on Yannick too often. ¡°Who''s that girl, Yannick?¡± Florence was so confused to see Keh¡¯s happy face.

Is she on the same show Mr. Zelinski is on?] Florence hardly watched TV shows, so all she knew was that Keh was on a show, but she didn¡¯t know the details. She would rather spend more time with her family instead of watching TV. (What does she look like? | haven¡¯t seen her.] Florence shared a picture of Cassandra. That''s her.

He remembered that Cassandra had had those snacks once so he bought some for her. Seeing so many snacks, Cassandra was a little surprised. She wondered why Keh had so many snacks in his office. Her curious gaze made Keh a little embarrassed. He cleared his throat and said, ¡®I thought that you mighte to my office someday, so | prepared them for you. They¡¯re all what you usually cat.¡± Cassandra¡¯s curious gaze suddenly froze, not knowing what to say. She thought, ¡®He helped me unconditionally, and now he has my favorite snacks in his office. Why?¡± ¡°Why are you so kind to me, Keh? Are we only acquainted with each other?¡± Cassandra couldn''t help asking. She always felt that there was something else between them. ¡°Till tell you everything after I¡¯m done with the Zelinski family, OK? You''re right. We''re closer than you think. You saved my life.¡± Keh didn¡¯t say much for fear that she would be involved in his family affairs if she knew the truth.

Although Tyler approved of what Keh did, Tyler knew that Keh would deal with him in the end. Therefore, Tyler was prepared for this, and so was Harriet, who hired a killer again. The most important thing was that the killer wasing at Cassandra. Keh smiled and went straight back to his seat. ¡°Would you like to have a tour around the office?¡± ¡°Can I? | want to visit the technology department of the Zelinski Group.¡± ¡°Sure.

Keh said, ¡°Take out the documents on the desk and get them down.¡± Yannick was dumbfounded to hear that. ¡°Take them out now.

It takes him about six hours to deal with those documents, and it will only take me longer to do that. | may not be able to finish all this work tomorrow morning. After saying that, Keh went out with Cassandra. The technology department was on the floor below the CEO¡¯s Office. Because they hold core technology andpany secrets, they were closest to Keh. ¡°What should we do?

You''re distracting me... Dn turned around and stood up in fear immediately. ¡°Mr. Zelinski...¡± ¡°What are you talking about?¡± Keh said with a stern face.

She had a look at it just now and thought that there should be more to this system than just getting a virus and being attacked. It was possible they identally clicked on something else while activating the defense system. Anyway, things were not going well. ¡°Okay, please. Keh almost forgot that Cassandra was Emery, who was the best hack in the world. However, People in the technology department were all skeptical. ¡°Can you? It¡¯s quite difficult.¡± Although they didn¡¯t believe her, they still treated her with respect since Keh agreed. ¡°You''ll see,¡± said Cassandra.

The more he looked at it, the more amazed he was. ¡°She did it. Not only did she fend off the hack, but she also upgraded our defenses. The system will no longer be attacked by viruses!¡± Dn became more excited and his admiration for Cassandra grew. The manager couldn¡¯t believe it so he checked it himself. The next second, he was impressed. It only took her five minutes to solve what they hadn¡¯t solved in three days. I''m so impressed!¡± Dn was so excited that he wanted to kneel to Cassandra. ¡°It''s nothing. You did the right thing, but you identally activated the system¡¯s timed self-destruct so it wouldn''t allow you to proceed.¡± Dn was a very talented programmer and he had just hit a wall.

She was indeed an 18-year-old girl who just graduated from high school. Hearing this, they thought, ¡°Were we just saved by a high school student with great talent? Are all high school students as good as her these days? ¡°Alright, just keep working. Don¡¯t mind us.¡± Keh didn¡¯t like it when so many men surrounded Cassandra. In fact, Cassandra was surprised that Keh, with such a bad reputation, had such a loyal group of employees. Whether it was his assistants or regr staff, they were all very friendly. If there was a talented person in another company, his superiors would try everything to make things difficult for him rather than make way for him. Apparently, Keh¡¯s employees were all kind. What Cassandra didn¡¯t know, however, was that employees in the technology department work a lot every day, so they wouldn¡¯t refuse a big helper. They just felt so relieved. When Keh left the technology department with Cassandra, she said, ¡°Everyone in yourpany is so nice, Keh.¡± They were as nice as the Modern Beacon Synergy staff, who were simple and hardworking. ¡°There¡¯s no conflict between them because | pay everyone enough.

Cassandra gradually understood what was going on. Keh had been picking on the Zelinski family to avenge his mother, and he was probably gonna do more. Otherwise, Hector wouldn¡¯t be there. ¡°Ask the man who¡¯s been with you all the years. His biggest mistake was hiding the evidence instead. of destroying it.¡± That was the key to their failure.

They wouldn¡¯t stay far away from Keh, so they just waited near the vi.. As expected, Keh called Yannick, and they thought that Yannick couldn¡¯t take them away on his own, so they came out together. Cassandra raised her eyebrows, thinking, ¡°They¡¯re even creepier than Jeremiah.¡± ¡°rm your stepmother and thedy of the Zelinski family, Keh. You can¡¯t do this to me!¡± Harriet said in fear. She had been lying for so many years and she couldn¡¯t end up like that. Conrad had to rely on her since he lost his legs, and she hadn¡¯t got everything from the Zelinski family. Harriet wasn¡¯t satisfied. If Fiona hadn¡¯t married Hector, she wouldn''t have tried to kill her. Harriet didn¡¯t think it was her fault. She thought that Fiona had taken everything from her and all she was doing was taking it back. ¡°You killed my mother, Harriet, and you hired killers to kill me several times these years.

An excellent girl like her ought to belong to all the people who love her.¡± Keh thought, ¡®Like Jeremiah, like Mr. and Mrs. Hathaway, or myself. Those who had ulterior motives did not deserve Cassandra''s concern. Lucas didn¡¯t expect that Keh could respond to him in such a smart way. For a while, he did not know how to reply. Cassandra showed up quickly. For Cassandra, it was the first time when the whole family dressed up in a parent-child outfit. In the past, Benjamin, Miranda and Yulissa often wore these outfits, even those six brothers had them. But she was constantly left out, no matter what. She and the Hathaway couple were dressed as parents and children. It was an odd feeling for her. She had the impression that something was pressing into her heart and that an area that had wilted was starting to sprout and take root. ¡°Let''s go!¡± Sylvia gave Cassandra a satisfied nce before getting into her car and heading to the campus. ¡°Lucas and Sylvia, you can go first Kenne and | will follow behind.¡± Sylvia immediately agreed, thinking that this arrangement also made sense. As the back seat of their car was packed with luggage, Cassie was unable to fit in anyway. 3/5 Dreame Chapter 212 But Lucas seemed to find something odd. *Kenne? Did she mean Mr. Zelinski? Was Cassie and Keh so close now?¡± But seeing Keh¡¯s happy face, Lucas knew he should have acquiesced to their rtionship. Cassandra was happy with her outfit as she looked down at it in the car. ¡°This is my first time wearing parent-child outfits, and with Lucas and Sylvia,¡± she remarked, looking embarrassed. She spoke in an enthusiastic, wary, and nervous tone. It seemed that Cassandra was merely uncaring about those who didn¡¯t love her, rather than truly being cruel. ¡°In the future, there will be more asions to dress like this. The Hathaway family really loves you, Keh said sincerely. Maybe this exined why, after going through a lot, Cassandra still maintained a pure heart.. Even without a family, she foundfort in Lucas and Sylvia, and that was enough. ¡°Remember to ¡®take good care of Leonardo for me. | hope | can hear his good news after the military training Cassandra intentionally stressed the words ¡®take good care of. ¡°No problem. Just focus on your military training, and I''ll teach Leonardo an unforgettable lesson.¡± It only took half an hour to drive from Springmount Townhouse to Juset University. They arrived at the entrance to find Lucas and Sylvia already waiting for them, along with two more people. It was Roger and Jonathan. ¡°Why are you here?¡± Cassandra asked. ¡°Today is your first day to register for university, why do you think I¡¯m here?¡± Jonathan pushed his gold¡ª-rimmed sses with an enigmatic look. ¡°My parents asked me to work as aborer,¡± Roger replied. Roger had two parents who loved him very much. They asked him to wait at the university entrance early in the morning for no other reason than to carry a suitcase for Cassandra. The most important thing was to let him wait here instead of picking him up at home. In this way, he wouldn¡¯t find out about their parent-child outfits. 475 The Seto Makina Mare Money with Less Effort Laser Chapter 212 fii) SEND GIFT COMMENT 5/5 | 69% The Secret to Making More Money with Less Effort: Laser Chapter 213 Chapter 213 ¡°Can it be considered as ¡°hiding in in sight*?

Cassandra looked at the growing team and fell silent. Initially, there was only Keh, then Lucas and Sylvia came, and now Roger and Jonathan also joined in. ¡°Let''s go in together.¡± ¡°Wait.¡± Roger suddenly stopped them. ¡°Look at the university entrance. Can you find anything different?¡± Roger gestured at Juset University¡¯s main entrance, which had hot air balloons on either side. With a banner reading, ¡°Warmly wee Cassandra to Juset University with an SAT score of 1598, ranking first in the country? Cassandra was speechless. Roger continued, ¡°There¡¯s more inside.¡± Jonathan nodded and said, ¡°I just went in to have a look. They gave a strong sense of enthusiasm. You may eventually make a lot of friends here.¡± This made up for my regrets back in the day. But is it toote to drop out now?¡± Keh smiled and said, ¡°It must be the principal, Mr.Wilson, who did this. Let¡¯s go in first.¡± Cassandra had no desire to enter the campus anymore. She feared being surrounded by others and being stared at just like a monkey. As expected, the seniors crowded around with banners in their hands.

Cassandra was arranged to live in a studio apartment, so she won''t live with us.¡± Cassandra took the flowers and said, ¡°Thank you.¡± Her eyes paused on the crowd, and she found it a little unbelievable. With great enthusiasm, Ashley took her hand and said, ¡°Let''s go. I''ll apany you to the registration office.¡± ¡°Luke, please arrange for someone to take Cassandra¡¯s luggage to the studio apartment.¡± They could leave Cassandra¡¯s luggage to the residential director. Since the apartment was equipped with an elevator, she could pick it up herself without feeling tired. ¡°Just leave it to me.¡± Henry Wilson, the university¡¯s principal, and an elderly man had been waiting a long time at the registration office. Henry spotted Cassandra approaching and was relieved. ¡°You''re here finally, Cassandra. It is also a relief for Professor Miller.¡± ¡°Is he afraid he won''t be able to get the money if | don¡¯t show up?¡± Cassandra asked bluntly. 24 The Secret to Making More Money with Less Effort: Laser A Chapter 213 She had covered all of his research over the previous two years, so the old man would not feel at case until he saw her. The old man tried to remain calm despite his obvious embarrassment and remarked, ¡°Girl, how can you say that? I¡¯m around your grandfather¡¯s age. You shouldn''t let me lose face, right? ¡°Come on, let''s register first.¡± In an attempt to ease the tension between them, Henry decided to start a new conversation. ¡°Professor Kaptur, you¡¯ve been at Juset University in the past two years?¡± No wonder Cassie was going to study at Juset University. Perhaps mainly because of him. ¡°Yes, Mr. Hathaway, long time no see.¡± ¡°You are wearing...parent¡ªchild outfit?¡± ¡°Cassie is the child of the Hathaway family now.¡± ¡°Well, that makes sense. Thank you for your consideration.¡± Henry was not involved in their conversation, but asked Cassandra with great enthusiasm what major she intended to take. Usually, students who apply for a university should select their preferred major. However, Henry was hoping Cassandra could select any major after she arrived at the university, so that was why Cassandra¡¯s offer letter didn¡¯t include a major at all. It didn¡¯t take long before the deans of several faculties swarmed in at the entrance of the registration office. ¡°This is Cassandra, right? Would you like to be a member of the Mathematics Department?¡± ¡°Don''t go to the Mathematics Department,e to our Chemistry Department to explore the miracle of the world and life together.¡± ¡°Cassandra, are you interested in the Department of Astronomy?

So refreshing! ¡°Cassandra.¡± It was a boy¡¯s voice, which sounded familiar, but she couldn¡¯t remember: ¡°We used to study in the same school, now we will study in the same university in the future.¡± Cassandra took a closer look and suddenly realized that it was Samuel. ¡°Hi, Samuel.¡± ¡°Have you finished the registration?¡± Looking at the forms they were holding in their hands, it seemed that they could not find the exact location of the building for a while. ¡°Yeah, we''re heading to the dormitory first.¡± ¡°Let me then lead the way for you. The university is full of paths, making it easy to get lost.¡± If you asked him how he learned about these paths, it was probably from roommate rumors. Many of these paths were popr spots for dating among young people. Actuality, he had seen lovers dating in the woods as well. ¡°Cassandra! Long time no see!¡± It''s Christine.

However, that couldn''t erase the pain Cassandra had suffered in the past. ¡°Yeah,¡± Cassandra responded indifferently. ¡°| majored in Economics and Management. What about you? We will be alumna from now on.¡± Christine¡¯s enthusiasm made Cassandra a little overwhelmed. ¡°Christine, Samuel, | have things to do. | got to go.¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t intend to catch up with these two ssmates. She¡¯d prefer to pretend that she didn¡¯t know them. However, the reality was a far cry from her expectations. Samuel immediately stepped forward and said, ¡°Cassandra, hold on.¡± He took a big breath and looked at Keh before saying, ¡°I apologize for what happened in high school.¡± | didn¡¯t have the chance to apologize to you in person.¡± ¡°I know you applied for Juset University, so | wanted to see if | had a chance to meet you.¡± He never got the chance to apologize to Cassandra directly because she had just left when he apologized in public. After that, he didn¡¯t have the chance to apologize to her in court as well. But today, he was lucky enough to bump into her. Sure how Christine also said right away. ¡°Yes, Cassandra.

It might serve as a little bit of atonement for what | did.¡± After that, she lowered her head, Since Christine knew that Cassandra had previously been left in an orphanage, it was natural for her to assume that Cassandra was raised there until Grandma Blossom adopted her.

But everyone who lived there was either a professor or a straight-A student. Cassandra handed over the registration form and dormitory check-in form to the residential director on the first floor. The dormitory supervisor took them over nonchntly, thinking that Juset University was full of straight-A students. She was taken aback, nevertheless, upon seeing the name on the student list. ¡°Cassandra?¡± ¡®Is she the top scorer in the country?

She noticed that he and Cassandra had been inseparable. There had to be some sort of rtionship between them. But Cassandra felt a little embarrassed by what she said. She was speechless. Keh, on the other hand, didn¡¯t seem to care and replied, ¡°One has to work harder to match the top scorer He didn¡¯t acknowledge their rtions nor deny it. All he said was that he would work harder to match Cassandra. ¡°Young man, you must put in a lot of effort. Juset University has many attractive boys.

Why didn¡¯t you tell her the truth?¡± Cassandra thought. It¡¯s best to rify things like this.

What a goody two-shoes!¡± ¡°She deserves the title of the national top scorer, she just gave us an unscripted speech.¡± ¡°Even when | read the notes, if | were her, | would still make mistakes.¡± ¡°No wonder she is the national top scorer.

Was she unaware that this major is not popr?¡± After the opening ceremony, it was time for the freshman to take a bus and head to the military training base. Cassandra took all the tools Keh had prepared for her. After arriving at the training base, Cassandra felt a little familiar with this ce. Though not exactly, it bore a striking resemnce to the Falcon Special Operations Force base. There were two squadrons in the Traditional Medicine Department: one for boys and one for girls. This major appeared to be quite gender bnced, since there were just two more students of one gender than the other. With the help of the instructors, students were quickly divided into multiple teams. The base¡¯s yground was much bigger than the university¡¯s regr yground. It could hold tens of thousands of students. When the instructors stood in front of them, Cassandra recognized who they were. Cassandra was ced in the front row due to her height, but the instructor noticed that she very good stance and decided to use her as a model. There were well over a hundred instructors there, and Cassandra recognized that they were members of the Falcon Special Operations Force. a 4/5 The Secret to Making More Money with Less EHort: Laser [e) 10:45 Mon, 4 Mar Chapter 216 If they were all here, is Keh also here?¡¯ 69% As her mind drifted, she spotted a man standing on the stage facing the yground. She could see him wearing a military uniform, although he was a little far away. However, Cassandra recognized him at once. Yes, it was Keh! 315) SEND GIFT D COMMENT The Secret to Making More Money with Less Effort: Laser Chatper 217 Chapter 217 However, Keh was wearing a mask that covered half of his face. It could be that he wasn¡¯t ready to reveal his identity at this point. He had twopanions standing beside him. They appeared to be Kayden and Yannick. But it made sense. Since Kayden was a member of the Falcon Special Operations Force, as the deputy leader, he needed to be there. Have you heard that this time, the university made a big investment? They invited the Falcon Special Operations Force to be our instructors. This base is where they trained the recruits.¡± ¡°I''ve also heard that this time, they will probably choose qualified people to join their team.¡± ¡°Really? If | can be selected by the Falcon Special Operations Force, it will be such a great honor for my family.¡± ¡°Why are you so excited? Isn''t it merely a special operations force?¡± ¡°Are you a nerd? Haven''t you heard of Falcon Special Operations Force?¡± ¡°Boy, you are still too young. It wasn¡¯t too long ago that over a hundred members of the Falcon Special Operations Force assisted in an evacuation operation, effectively rescuing and sending home dozens of experts. This news went viral. Haven¡¯t you heard of it?¡± ¡°The SAT had ended by then.¡± ¡°It seems that | have to do well in this training and try to be picked by the Falcon Special Operations Force!¡± With a nk expression, Cassandra listened to their conversation. ¡®How would they select members among the students? Even if they did, the candidates must possess an exceptional physique! Yannick suddenly walked to the middle of the stage and turned on the microphone. ¡°Be quiet.¡± He spoke in a loud, serious tone. ¡°Wee to the Falcon Special Operations Force. We''ll be with you for the uing two weeks. You are going to suffer together with us. | hope everyone can persevere through to the very end.¡± Yannick¡¯s words served as a warning and a caution to all those present: the next two weeks would be difficult. Keh looked around the yground, which made the students think he was observing them, but his nce suddenly stopped. He smiled imperceptibly, and Kayden followed his gaze. It was Cassandra. After a lengthy period of eloquent speaking, Yannick dered, ¡°Let¡¯s wee our chief instructor Ill 3] 23%This content is ? N?velDrama.Org. Chapter 217 and the head of Falcon Special Operations Force to speak!¡± Keh remained silent. With a melodious baritone, he walked forward and said, ¡°| hope you can work hard on your training.¡± His words created an illusion for the boys and stirred the hearts of the girls. The boy felt that he was different from the legend, who was decisive in killing and ruthless to his fellow soldiers. But why did he sound so considerate to them? The girls thought he was mysterious. He must be handsome with such a sexy voice, and more importantly, he was quite young. While Keh first created amotion among the students, he soon incited the students¡¯ ire. ¡°Stand at attention for two hours.¡± ¡°Hell no...¡± Although everyone voiced their dissatisfaction, they had to follow themand of the chief instructor. They are soldiers, and a soldier¡¯s sacred duty is to follow orders. Therefore, they have to obey hismand. The instructors tried to improve the discipline of their own teams. These students never expected that Keh would start the training by demanding them stand at- attention for two hours. It was still boiling hot in September. Cassandra didn¡¯tin about this decision and followed the instructor''s directions to stand at attention. Keh led Yannick and Kayden to make an inspection tour of all the teams. From time to time, they walked through lines of students to pull their hands. If they released their grip, it would indicate that they lacked strength in their hands and didn¡¯t stand in the right way. If this happened, other team members would have to be punished by standing for ten more minutes. When they arrived at the team of the Traditional Medicine Department, Keh pulled up just in front of Cassandra and looked at her. He then extended his hand to pull her hands, but she remained still. Raising his eyebrows, Keh pulled her once again. In fact, he didn¡¯t use excessive force. 10.49 Tue, 5 Mar Chapter 217 AA 23% ¡°Have you seen it! You may take her stance as a reference.

Go ahead and have a rest.¡± Cassandra frowned a bit, not sure what he meant. ¡°Mr. Zelinski, but | want to stand with my ssmates¡± It had not even been thirty minutes since she stood there, yet he had already given her special treatment ¡°Obey order!¡± replied Keh. ¡°Yes, sirt Cassandra turned around and walked straight over. ¡°Humph: Fine! This scene made other girls look envious. Of course, Emma also saw it. This girl again. What¡¯s her name? Cassandra? Humph, it¡¯s simply a stance. Not a big deal¡¯ Of course, Keh didn¡¯t ask her to go there alone. Instead, he asked another four students to rest Two boys and two girls. The sun was still zing in early fall.

Persistence will pay off, so keep going if you don¡¯t want the chief instructor to y new tricks on you.¡± They got motivated again. When he initially showed up, they were taken aback by his gentle words. Now what kept them stuck with it was no more surprises from Keh. Two hourster, the training on the standing at attention ended. ¡°That¡¯s enough for today. We''ll assemble here at six o¡¯clock, and instructors may dismiss your teams: except for the one that was punished.¡± Kayden spoke for Keh as he had left. Once the instructor ordered ¡°Dismiss,¡± the girls sat down one by one. The instructor became a little amused yet irritated upon seeing this. However, he shouldn''t be too harsh on them considering that his team consisted solely of girls. ¡°Go back now. You need to tidy up your beds because the dorms have been assigned. We will check them after dinner.¡± The girlsined that it was just too unbearable. At this moment, Cassandra returned to her dormitory and started making the bed. She was almost done when her roommates returned. ¡°Some people are always luckier, they can rest in the shade only for performing well in training and can even be dismissed earlier than others.¡± Agirl entered the room and said in a sarcastic tone as soon as she saw Cassandra. Chatper 218 Chapter 218 ¡°Cassidy, stop it.¡± One of the girls stopped the speaker. ¡°I''m not wrong. Why should | stop?¡± said Cassidy. Cassandra pretended not to hear it and ignored their madness. She knew that today was special and that such dissatisfaction would surely be ushered in. However, she didn¡¯t take it to heart. ¡°Cassidy, why don¡¯t you say it in Mr. Moore¡¯s face? Is that what Cassandra wanted? It¡¯s Mr. Zelinski who asked her to rest. If you dare, just make sure you stand out and get the reward too. Stop being jealous here.¡± Another studenting in from the back directly retorted. When she turned to look at Cassandra, her face suddenly changed. She thought, ¡®What a beautiful girl!" ¡°Hello, you¡¯re Cassandra, right? I¡¯m Sofia Chapman. Nice to meet you.¡± Sofia¡¯s enthusiasm and change of attitude made Cassandra raise her eyebrows. Cassandra said, ¡°Cassandra Yates. Nice to meet you, too.¡± Sofia said, ¡°I know you. You got the highest grade on the SAT in our country. When your grade was announced, my parents asked me to learn from you and kept talking it in my ear every day...¡± Speaking of these, Sofia would cry. If it were others who got the highest grade, Sofia might not have been convinced. But it was Cassandra, her idol Samantha. Sofia couldn''t hate her at all. On the contrary, Sofia was proud that she was a fan of Cassandra. Now, she even became Cassandra¡¯s ssmate. Since she became Samantha¡¯s ssmate, she would not allow anyone else to bully Samantha. ¡°Sofia, are you out of your mind? Did | say something about you?¡± Cassidy was confused about being scolded and looked very unhappy. Sofia retorted, ¡°You bullied our ssmates. Why can¡¯t | scold you? Again, if you have any objections, go to Mr. Moore. Why are you acting like a princess here? You''re the one who is out of your mind.¡± Sofia didn¡¯t care about Cassidy at all when she scolded Cassidy. Sofia didn¡¯t indulge her. Sofia would fight back against whoever dared to talk about her idol, ¡°You...¡± Cassidy said. ¡°What? Am | wrong?¡± Sofia raised her head and became more arrogant. 23% Chapter 218 Cassandra stopped Sofia and said in a cold voice to Cassidy, ¡°If you have any questions, you can tell Mr. Zelinski. Instead of comining here, it¡¯s better to make your bed.¡± Cassidy red at Cassandra and began to make her bed. However, as the daughter of a rich family, Cassidy didn¡¯t know how to make her bed, let alone fold up the nket perfectly. Sofia was also in a pickle. She didn¡¯t know, either. She stared at her nket with a sad face. Seeing Sofia¡¯s wry smile, Cassandra thought of how she defended herself just now, so Cassandra. took the initiative to step forward and asked, ¡°Do you know how to make your bed?¡± Sofia was a little frustrated. She said, ¡°No. I¡¯ve expected what | will look like when | am punished.¡± Cassandra smiled faintly, ¡°l can teach you.¡± Sofia¡¯s eyes lit up and she said excitedly, ¡°Cassandra, do you know it?¡± But then Sofia looked at Cassandra¡¯s bed. Cassandra''s nket was standard. She had only seen such a neat bed on TV or in military dormitories. Sofia said, ¡°Cassandra, teach me. I''ll buy you breakfast for a month after the summer camp.¡± She thought, ¡®God! She gonna save my life. Cassandra said, ¡°No, thanks. Just take it as my gratitude to you for defending me just now.¡± Sofia raised her chin proudly and thought, ¡°My idol is so cute and enthusiastic. There were eight people in the dormitory. The rest of them including Cassidy looked at Cassandra with eyes that clearly showed their thoughts. Cassandra ignored them and didn¡¯t stop them from watching. Instead, she patiently exined and guided Sofia to make her bed. After that, she asked Sofia to try it on her own. After watching it, Cassidy found that it seemed to be quite simple. She thought, ¡®Humph, | can also do it¡¯ Cassidy and Sofia started to do it at the same time, but they couldn¡¯t make it well. Cassandra was a little helpless and began to correct Sofia. Cassidy also learned from the side and finally folded up a not-that¡ªbad nket. She thought to herself, ¡®It seems that Cassandra is really something. Humph, that¡¯s because I¡¯m smart enough to learn it After making her bed, Cassandra decided to go out for a walk. They would assemble at 6 p.m. anyway.

Keh might have given them a task. 23% Cassandra tried to walk around the other side of the yground without bumping into them. But before long, a man in a military uniform appeared in front of her. It was no one but Kayden. Kayden looked at Cassandra as if he wanted to say a lot of words but he couldn¡¯t. When he knew that he was going to train students at Juset University, he had thought about what to say when he met Cassandra, but now he could not say anything. ¡°Hello, Mr. Yates.¡± Cassandra suddenly straightened up, greeted, and prepared to leave. ¡°Cassie, | have something to tell you.¡± As soon as Kayden opened his mouth, his identity changed from an instructor to Kayden himself, or if possible, Cassandra¡¯s cousin. Cassandra also lost her calmness and said indifferently, ¡°Mr. Yates, we have nothing to talk about.¡± ¡°Cassie, I¡¯m sorry for what happened before, and on behalf of my mother and Aunt Jessica, | want to apologize to you. | hope you can forgive us...¡± Kayden wanted to talk to Cassandra these days but he didn¡¯t find any chance. He knew that Cassandra was in Springmount Townhouse, but Keh was there. Kayden couldn''t get close to her. He had even been assigned to take charge of another ss during the summer camp.ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org . Cassandra interrupted Kayden, ¡°Mr. Yates, it¡¯s actually my fault. | didn¡¯t think twice about what happened that day and almost made a big mistake. I¡¯m d that you don¡¯t me me.¡± Her tone was indifferent as if she were stating something irrelevant to her. Kayden said, ¡°No, you misunderstood us. We were in a hurry at that time and we didn¡¯t expect your sudden action.¡± None of the people in the Yates family had expected that Cassandra was actually Faye Quirke. ording to the prescription Cassandra gave, Maximilian hadn¡¯t been in much better condition recently. Even the family doctor was surprised. Only then did the Yates family realize how ridiculous they were that day. Although Maximilian took medicine on time these days, he didn¡¯t have his meal on time and wouldn''t have it until he saw Cassandra. Cassandra said, ¡°I understand it. | said that our rtionship would be the same, no matter if it was in the past or the future. | don¡¯t want to change.¡± Kayden said, ¡°Cassie, | don¡¯t know how to make it up to you. As long as you make a requirement, | will do it.¡± Cassandra said, ¡°Mr. Yates/you don¡¯t have to do anything.¡± Cassandra thought it was boring to hear too much like that. 10:49 Tue, 5 Mar MN Chapter 218 Kayden had experienced frustration for the first time. 23%B After Cassandra left, Yannick suddenly stepped up and gloated at Kayden. Yannick said, ¡°Wow, you met with a rebuff again.¡± Kayden said angrily, ¡°Don¡¯t make sarcastic remarks.¡± Yannick became normal and said. ¡°Mr. Yates, as | followed Mr. Zelinski, I¡¯ve seen a lot of people in the Yates family who ttered or med Ms. Yates for their own interests. Nobody likes it when people keep being against them, especially if it happens a lot.¡± Chatper 219 Chapter 219 How could Kayden not understand what Yannick meant? At that time, it was really just their subconscious reaction. Even if they didn¡¯t believe it, they shouldn¡¯t have said something in a sharp tone. Kayden had heard that Cassandra went to the technology department of the Zelinski Group, and when they were in trouble, Cassandra helped them. People of the Zelinski Group also suspected and questioned Cassandra. However, ording to Yannick, their tone was good. Although they didn¡¯t believe it, they treated Cassandra differently. People¡¯s subconscious reactions could best reflect the problem. So, it was Kayden and his family who were at fault. Kayden begged Cassandra to go to the family gathering. There was nothing wrong with her words, no attack or me. She just stated the fact. She tried her best to save Maximilian when he fainted, and the doctors¡® recent examinations showed that Maximilian had be much healthier. If Cassandra was wrong, she has made up for it. What about Kayden and his family? Kayden said. ¡°Yannick, please help me. Cassie is a child of the Yates family. Grandpa has been. looking forward to finding her for 18 years. Now we found her, but she doesn¡¯t want to go home. To say the least, Cassie saved Grandpa and me. | can¡¯t stay away from her.¡± Kayden was shocked when he knew Cassandra was Faye Quirke, but he quickly epted it. He believed that such an excellent person must be excellent in anything. Yannick shrugged and said, ¡°Mr. Yates, you have to solve this on your own. But | advise you not to push her too hard, or Mr. Zelinski will be mad.¡± After finishing his words, Yannick left and asked Kayden to find a way out by himself. If Yannick got involved, Keh would probably kill him if Keh knew about it. Students gathered at 6 p.m. to have dinner. There were eight canteens in the base, which could amodate tens of thousands of people to eat at the same time. Therefore, after allocating the canteens, the instructors took the students to the canteens. The tables were already full of meals. Each person had a te with two meat dishes, one vegetable dish, one soup, and one staple food. Under the arrangement of the instructors, everyone began in cal.

Cassandra suddenly said lightly, ¡°If you don¡¯t want to implicate the whole team, you''d better sit down and eat.¡± Cassidy was shocked. When making their beds just now, she felt that Cassandra was quite capable. But now she felt Cassandra was so annoying. Cassidy said, ¡°It¡¯s none of your business.¡± Cassandra finished eating thest vegetable on her te and said. ¡°If you have observed it, you should know that there are no other restaurants in this base. Even if you leave here, it is still deste. Where will you go? However, if you waste food, others will be involved.*. Cassidy became a little diffident. ¡°Don¡¯t exaggerate it. Even if there is no restaurant for dinner. | can¡¯t eat these dishes. | waste my food, and how can you get involved? Ridiculous,¡± 10 Seeing that they didn¡¯t listen, Cassandra was irritable. Just then, Baron came over. Cassandra raised her hand, and Baron came towards her. Baron asked, ¡°What''s up?¡± ¡°Mr. Moore, I¡¯m done. May | go out?¡± Cassandra ignored other students and directly applied for permission to leave. Baron nced at her.te and nodded. ¡°Go back to the dormitory to inspect your hygiene. Assemble downstairs at 7 o''clock. Cassandra said, ¡°Yes, sir.¡± Seeing Cassandra leave, Cassidy was indignant. Cassidy wondered how Cassandra could leave. ¡°Mr. Moore, we want to go back, too.¡± Cassidy stopped Baron and told him what she was thinking. Baron nced at their tes and found that they almost hadn''t eaten anything. His face instantly became grim. Baron said, ¡°She finished eating, so she can leave. As for you, you are now in the base. Do not act like spoiled kidy. Those who can¡¯t finish the dishes or thest person who finishes them will clean and wash all the dishes in the eight canteens, or the whole team deal with all the leftovers.¡± [e) 22% Chapter 219 Students didn¡¯t know how to deal with the leftovers, but they knew they couldn¡¯t waste them. Cassidy was so aggrieved that she almost cried. She had never been treated like this before. ¡°Cassidy, you''d better hurry up and eat. It¡¯s not a big deal to punish yourself. You can think about whether everyone will hate you if the whole team is involved,¡± Sofia kindly reminded Cassidy. They had grown up together since childhood. Sofia knew that Cassidy was good except for being a little arrogant. Cassidy would probably cry if she ended up cleaning the eight canteens. Cassidy red at Sofia fiercely. She thought, ¡®Humph, | don¡¯t need your warning. Cassandra was at the summer camp as usual, but in the hospital, Benjamin could not move except. for talking. ¡°Dad, Mom is in prison and wants to see us.¡± Matthew was the only one who still stayed with Benjamin. Miranda had been in prison for many days. Matthew got the news today that she didn¡¯t eat or drink and wanted to see Benjamin. ¡°| won''t see her.¡± Benjamin paused and said, ¡°She''s a bitch.¡± ¡°Matt, Cassandra...¡± Benjamin missed Cassandra so much that he wanted to recognize her. Before long, a middle-aged woman wearing sunsses and a hat suddenly appeared outside the ward. ¡°Excuse me, is this Benjamin¡¯s ward?¡± Matthew looked back and was slightly stunned. No one came to see them after Benjamin was hospitalized. He wondered who this woman was. ¡°Yes, but who are you?¡± Matthew asked. The woman took off her sunsses and hat and said to Benjamin on the bed, ¡°Benjamin, long time. no see.¡± Benjamin suddenly widened his eyes and said, ¡°Li... Lily!¡± The woman''s name was Lily Sanchez. She was Benjamin¡¯s first love. She gently smiled and said, ¡°Thank God.

It¡¯s really a long time.¡± Suddenly, Lily¡¯s tone was slightly cold. Chatper 220 Chapter 220 Benjamin was a little confused. He wondered, ¡®Avenging our daughter? But she is alive. Does she want to revenge on Miranda for taking our daughter away? ¡°Are you looking for Miranda to take revenge for her kidnapping our child?¡± Benjamin¡¯s tone was a little stiff, but it was not hard to tell the tenderness in it. Lily snorted coldly and nced at Matthew. She said, ¡°It seems that your son hasn¡¯t told you anything. What a good son of Miranda!¡± Benjamin was even more confused. He couldn''t move now, so he could not release his emotions. ¡°What... what do you mean?¡± Lily said, ¡°I mean that my child was killed by Miranda. Ms. Cassandra Yates is not your daughter. What are you thinking about? Do you deserve to be her father?¡± If it weren¡¯t for Cassandra, Lily would not have been able to avenge her child by now. Lily had been living in pain for so many years. It was an ident for her to be with Benjamin and have his baby. She just wanted to give birth to a baby and have spiritual support. Her uterine wall was thin, and it was not easy for her to have a baby. If she had an abortion, she would never be able to be a mother for the rest of her life. However, she had only enjoyed being a mother for two days before Miranda deprived her right, separating her from her child forever. After hearing Lily¡¯s words, Benjamin rolled his eyes and began to tremble. Seeing this, Matthew quickly stepped forward to comfort him. ¡°Dad, calm down! Calm down!¡± Matthew looked at Lily and said, ¡°Can you stop? My mother is in prison. Why don¡¯t you let my father go?¡± Lily said, ¡°Why should |? If it was not for him, why would Miranda do this to me and my child? He is the culprit. Does he think the problem will be solved if he is hospitalized? Don¡¯t even think about. i), Lily knew that Miranda was in prison and wanted to see Benjamin. Lily had no way but to beg the mysterious man, so she could only seize Benjamin as a lifesaver. However, how could she let her wishe true? That was why she appeared there. ¡°What do you mean? Our daughter is dead?¡± Benjamin couldn''t believe what Lily said. He thought, Isn¡¯t Cassandra alive? Why did she say that?¡± ¡°My daughter died in the orphanage the day after Miranda took her away. Ms. Cassandra Yates has nothing to do with you. As for the result of your DNA test, you have to ask yourself why.¡± 22% Chapter 220 Lily''s words gave Benjamin a head-on blow. He wondered, ¡®Cassandra isn¡¯t my daughter. My daughter, in fact, is already dead. How did this happen?¡± Lily said. ¡°Otherwise, why was Miranda prosecuted, and why hasn¡¯t her sentencee out? Because she not only illegally took my child but also led to her death. There are other charges. She will either spend the rest of her life in prison or die.¡± Miranda would be more painful if she spent the rest of her life in prison because she needed to change her e and begin to live a poor life. However, Lily wanted Miranda to die to make up for her daughter.ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org . But it was up to the judge. Benjamin was stimted. He had raised a murderer for so many years who killed his daughter and kept a bastard by his side. Benjamin thought in his heart, ¡®What a bitch!¡± The more Benjamin thought about it, the more puzzled and mad he became. Lily said, ¡°You know what? The bastard you raised went to find her biological father and live a good life. But before she left, she spent Miranda¡¯s tens of thousands of dors. You may have to pay back the money.¡± Lily''s gentleness she had when she first came in disappeared. Instead, she had the pleasure of revenge now. Benjamin gave her hope to be a mother, but his wife ruined it. Lily thought Benjamin deserved to die with his wife. Matthew frowned and stopped Lily. ¡°What are you talking about? You''re not wee here. Please leave.¡± Lily didn¡¯t care. Anyway, she had almost said what she wanted to say. She thought, ¡®As long as Benjamin goes to see Miranda, I''ll let them die together. Lily said, ¡°By the way, do you know that the Yates residence was sold? Now it has been demolished. It is said that it was bought by a rich man who wants to turn it into a horse ranch.¡± After saying that, Lily left directly. There was no chance for Matthew to say anything more. That was because he encountered a more urgent situation. Benjamin¡¯s eyes widened and his body twitched when he heard the sad news. ¡°Doctor! Doctor!¡± Matthew/shouted. It took Benjamin half an hour to calm down. [e) Chapter 220 The doctor told Matthew not to let Benjamin be stimted again.. Not long after the doctor left. Benjamin said with difficulty, ¡°Matt, is what she said true?¡± ¡°Yes,¡± Matthew admitted it. Anyway, Lily had told Benjamin everything, so there was no need to hide it. ¡°Bitch!¡± Benjamin shouted. Matthew frowned. Although he knew that Miranda deserved to die, he felt ufortable hearing Benjamin''s scolding of her. ¡°You''d better have a good rest. Don¡¯t think about it.¡± Matthew tucked Benjamin in. However, Benjamin shook his head. ¡°Matt, | want to see your mother.¡± Matthew said nothing. In the detention room at the police station, the police said, ¡°Miranda, visiting hours. The police brought her out. Miranda was a little excited, thinking that she could finally be saved. In the visiting room, Benjamin was sitting, and Matthew was standing. Miranda was very excited when she saw them. ¡°Honey, Matt, you finally came.¡± Benjamin said, ¡°Miranda, you... bitch! You killed my daughter and sold my house.¡± He said in his heart, ¡®You spent my billions of dors. Why don¡¯t you bitch die?¡± ¡°| didn¡¯t sell the house.

Benjamin wanted to p the table, but he couldn¡¯t move at all. ¡°Honey, | was wrong. Please help me, and let Lily make peace with me and stop pursuing this matter anymore, okay?¡± Miranda didn¡¯t care about the house at all. She only knew that she wanted to go out and be free. The prison was not a ce where she could stay. Benjamin said, ¡°Spend the rest of your life in prison.¡± That meant that Benjamin wouldn''t persuade Miranda at all. Instead, he might even add fuel to the mes. Miranda panicked and stood up emotionally, but she was pressed down by the police as soon as she stood up. 10:49 Tue, 5 Mar MM Chapter 220 Miranda said, ¡°Honey, you can¡¯t do this to me. We have been married for thirty years and | have given birth to six sons for you. Can¡¯t we get even? You also raised Lisa. Can¡¯t you treat her as your daughter? It might be better not to mention Yulissa. As soon as Miranda mentioned her, Benjamin couldn''t control his anger anymore. Benjamin said. ¡°That bitch Yulissa doesn¡¯t deserve it. She has gone to find her biological father, and you have been abandoned by her.¡± Benjamin tried tough at Miranda. However, Miranda¡¯s expression changed. She wondered, ¡®Lisa has gone to the man? How is that possible? Doesn''t she know anything about Chatper 221 Chapter 221 Miranda immediately panicked and began to beg Benjamin. ¡°Please save Lisa. Please. Her father is a bastard. He will kill her.¡± If it weren¡¯t for a secret exchange, if the man hadn''t wanted to know who sent her into the room, Miranda had no right to negotiate with him or let Yulissa be out of prison. However, they negotiated with each other once, and there was only one secret. Miranda made an agreement with the man that he would take Yulissa away, even if Miranda had fantasized about bing the hostess of Fallvale Mansion. After Yulissa came out, Miranda hadpletely given up this idea. That man was the devil. He was crazy. He kept his wife in a freezer for years. If Yulissa went with him, she would die. Matthew was stunned as if he hadn''t expected Miranda to say so. He wondered, ¡®The man is Yulissa¡¯s biological father. What could he do to his daughter?* On the contrary, Benjamin snorted and said, ¡°She deserves it.¡± These words stabbed Miranda like a sword. She instantly changed her face and said, ¡°Benjamin. Yates, you bastard! If it weren¡¯t for your cheating, would | have gone to the bar? Lisa is innocent. Her life is in danger now. How could you not save her?¡± Miranda didn¡¯t dare to think about what would happen when Yulissa lived with the devil man in a house that was full of experimental drugs. ¡°Even if she dies, it has nothing to do with me.¡± Obviously, Benjamin didn¡¯t want to save Yulissa. Miranda asked, ¡°You bastard, why? You have raised Yulissa for eighteen years. You are the father of Lisa. Are you going to let her die?¡± Benjamin shouted, ¡°You cuckolded me. Why should | save her? You and she should both die.¡± Miranda suddenly went crazy and broke free from the police. She rushed to Benjamin, grabbed hist neck, and said, ¡°Why? | gave birth to six excellent sons for you. Why can¡¯t you keep Lisa? Why don¡¯t you save her? Do you know she will die?¡± Benjamin was strangled, and the thin air around him was taken away. He tried to break free, but he couldn¡¯t use any strength at all. Seeing this, Matthew quickly came forward and tried to stop Miranda. However, Miranda used too much strength. Matthew worried that he would hurt her if he used too much force. The police also hurriedly came to help separate the two. ll 0 10:49 Tue, 5 Mar M Chapter 221 However, when they separated, Benjamin''s twitching hands had calmed down and even his body began to soften. ¡°Dad, are you okay? Dad?¡± Matthew''s shouting couldn''t wake Benjamin up. Benjamin didn¡¯t respond at all. Miranda was so scared that she stepped back. The police hurriedly checked the situation and put his hand in front of Benjamin¡¯s nose to feel his breath. The police said, ¡°He¡¯s still breathing. Send him to the hospital quickly.¡± The police station was full of forensic doctors, who couldn¡¯t save people at all. When they arrived at the hospital, Benjamin was sent to the emergency room. The ECG monitor beeped, and there was a straight line on the screen. The doctors used many methods, such as defibrition and electric shock, but failed to restore Benjamin''s breathing. Twenty minutester, the doctor took off his mask and said, ¡°Let¡¯s announce his death.¡± When Matthew knew the news, he took a step back. ¡°I see.¡± He didn¡¯t say anything more. Instead, he took out his phone and informed his brothers. However, only Yohannes and Raymond answered the phone. They said they woulde there as soon as possible and transfer money to Matthew, asking him to deal with it first. At the police station, Miranda was interrogated. don She sat opposite the police and said on the jig, ¡°Sir... what''s up?¡±Content provided by N?velDrama.Org. She wondered if Benjamin was fine now. The police said, ¡°Miranda, do you know that you havemitted another crime, wilful murder?¡± Miranda couldn''t believe what she heard. She thought, ¡®Wilful murder? | didn¡¯t kill anybody. Who died?¡± She said, ¡°Sir, | didn¡¯t kill anyone.¡± The police pped the table and said, ¡°You pinched Benjamin in front of us. He died because he failed to be rescued. Whats it if it''s not a wilful murder?¡± Chapter 221 122% The police took out a pen and looked at Miranda. ¡°Tell me, why did you do that?¡± Miranda¡¯s face turned pale instantly. She thought, ¡®Benjamin died? How could he die in such a short time? What should | do?* She said, ¡°Sir, there must be a misunderstanding. | didn¡¯t do anything.¡± She said in her heart, ¡®Why did he die? If he dies, | can¡¯t exin it. | didn¡¯t use any strength to pinch him.¡¯ The police said, ¡°All of us are witnesses, and the doctor has confirmed that it is an external force that caused him to die of oxygen deficiency and shock. If it weren¡¯t you, who else would it be?¡± Miranda could not refute what the police said, but she couldn¡¯t admit it. Herwsuit hadn¡¯t been settled yet. If she hadmitted wilful murder, she would be dead soon. ¡°I didn¡¯t kill him, Sir. | didn¡¯t... Miranda kept denying it, and the trial couldn¡¯t go on. The police said to another, ¡°Call a psychiatrist and check her.¡± Miranda didn¡¯t have mental problems, but she was too emotional to cooperate with the police. In the training base, everyone stood in line outside the dormitory building. ¡°Don¡¯t move. We''ll go check it now.¡± Agroup of instructors divided their troops into six groups and began to raid the dormitory building. The students standing below began to feel uneasy. Even Sofia was a little panicked. If she failed the inspection, she would be punished. Just when they were worried, they saw nkets with attached paper being thrown out. Just now, the instructors said that anyone whose nket was not folded up standardly would be thrown out. But because the nkets were uniformed, those who were thrown out would be pasted. with their names. It was a public execution. Soon, even the washbasin, towel, and toothbrush were thrown out. Some girls began to cry. Cassidy began to be afraid., What if her things were thrown out? She would feel very embarrassed. Soon, the front of the line was filled with nkets, basins, towels, and so on. [e) Tue, 5 Mar Chapter 221 The instructors walked down calmly and said excitedly. ¡°You disappoint me. Few people are qualified. You rookies can¡¯t even deal with your hygiene.¡± They added. ¡°However, there are members in a dormitory that perform well. Though not everyone¡¯s nket was folded up standardly, they are basically qualified.¡± n The students were silent and didn¡¯t dare to say anything. These instructors were indeed more and more abnormal as time went by. Baron said, ¡°Those who are called get out of rank.¡± ¡°Cassidy Hansen.¡± ¡°Sofia Chapman.¡± ¡°Alice Taylor.¡± Jocelyn Brown.¡±*¡± ¡°Cassandra Yates¡± It was none other than girls in Cassandra¡¯s dormitory. ¡°Do you know why | asked you to fall out?¡± Baron¡¯s tone was very serious, which frightened Cassidy to tremble. Chatper 222 Chapter 222 @22% Cassandra replied coldly, ¡°No, Sir.¡± ¡°Because no one¡¯s nket is thrown out. Tell me, how did you make it?¡± Baron looked at them with great interest. He wondered, ¡°They are all delicate girls. How could they be so skilled? It''s reasonable that others must have just learned how to make their bed. But Cassandra¡¯s bed was made standardly, which could be used as an example.¡± Only then did the girls secretly breathe a sigh of relief. It turned out that they were called out because they behaved well. It was really terrifying. When Cassidy was about to speak, she was interrupted by Sofia. ¡°Sir, Cassandra taught us how to make it, including how to ce our daily necessities.¡± Everyone was envious. They wondered why they didn¡¯t have such good luck to be in the same dormitory with Cassandra. Baron was interested. He thought, They should learn from one person!¡¯ He asked, ¡°Did you know each other before?¡± Sofia answered, ¡°No, sir. We were not even in the same ss. We came from different ces.¡± Sofia was right. Among the eight of them, except for her, Cassidy, and Cassandra, the others were probably not from Drieso. However, Cassidy was very popr and generous. She got along well with her ssmates soon. Baron looked at Cassandra with excitement He thought, ¡®Sure enough, the woman Mr. Zelinski likes has excellent hacking skills and event knows a lot about military basics. What can¡¯t she do?¡± Baron pretended to cough and said, ¡°Let Cassandra do a demonstration.¡± Cassandra was speechless. She thought, ¡°Why is everyone watching me? | almost became famous today.¡± However, obeying orders was what she needed to do now. ¡°Yes, sir.¡± Baron quickly spread a mat on the ground and casually took one of the nkets that was thrown down. After Cassandra took the nket, she began to fold it up very skillfully.This is property ? of N?velDrama.Org. Baron then told her to return to the team and said to everyone, ¡°See? This is the standard and 111 [e) 15 Chapter 222 excellent one. Think about what you made.¡± Baron suddenly said in a very serious tone, ¡®Everyone, find your nket and stand in front of me at once.¡± The students dispersed in ce and began to pull the pile of nkets that had been thrown down. It was done pretty quickly. ¡°Those who don¡¯t hold a nket go back to rest. We will learn something new tomorrow morning. You have to start washing at 9:30 p.m.¡± Sofia was relieved. Even Cassidy couldn¡¯t help but nce at Cassandra. Cassidy thought, ¡®Actually, she isn¡¯t that annoying. Except for being aloof, if she could be the same as others... Forget it. Cassandra won''t do anything to please others. It''s not her style. Baron was furious with those who were holding the nket. It seemed that most of them were boys. ¡°Everyone put your nket over your head.¡± Baron yelled. None of them dared to disobey.... On the other side, Cassandra walked alone on the yground. When she was tired of walking, she sat on the steps to rest. Suddenly, a man came out from behind her with a beautiful and familiar voice. ¡°Cass, why are you here alone?¡± Cassandra saw Keh and smiled faintly, ¡°You¡¯re here.¡± ¡°Well, don¡¯t you wee me?¡± Keh said jokingly. ¡°Sit down. Cassandra patted the seat next to herself and let him sit down. ¡°What''s on your mind?¡± Keh asked directly. Cassandra thought. ¡°Nothing. It¡¯s just that Benjamin died.¡± Keh raised his eyebrows and thought, ¡®So soon.¡± However, he could not see through Cassandra¡¯s emotions. It seemed that she was stating the fact. ¡°So what¡¯s your n? Keh asked. To tell the truth, he was afraid that Cassandra would be merciful. These people were not unforgivable at all. Cassandra nced at him and then looked at the sunset sky. ¡°Send Benjamin¡¯s family back, of course 111 [e) 10:49 Tue, 5 Mar M Chapter 222 22% Benjamin¡¯s family was not united at all. When Benjamin was in the hospital, the others didn¡¯t care. much about him. Now there were only six brothers left. How could they care about each other? Leonardo might have had a good life on the ind, and even Frederick must have been unrestrained. That was right. Frederick was enjoying life under her control. Keh smiled knowingly, thinking that Cassandra was really different. At this time, if she threw them back, would those people care about it? Leonardo was covered in bruises. It was a miracle for him to be alive. As for Frederick, he was sent to Men¡¯s Mansion. In the past more than half a month, he must have been taught a lesson ruthlessly by the virtue of his handsome appearance. Keh said. ¡°You''re thoughtful. Cass.¡± Cassandra smiled lightly. If she didn¡¯t send them back at this time, when would it be? They became a drag on each other, which should be quite wonderful. After they finished talking about Benjamin¡¯s family, Cassandra suddenly remembered something and couldn''t help asking. ¡°Have the people in Falcon Special Operations Force recognized me?¡± She couldn''t be med for thinking too much, but these people¡¯s behavior was so weird. Keh nodded and said, ¡°I think so.¡± He had heard about the matter of making the bed just now. ¡°Can you not treat me specially? | am almost regarded as an imaginary enemy by many people, and it will be very troublesome.¡± Cassandra was a little helpless. Keh said, ¡°You are excellent. You don¡¯t need to care about others¡¯ opinions.¡± Cassandra said, ¡°No. | just want to spend an ordinary life during the summer camp. | don¡¯t want to be in the limelight.¡± Cassandra¡¯s words made Keh dumbfounded. ¡°Is it appropriate for you to say this in front of me, the chief instructor?¡± Cassandra was speechless. She thought, ¡°Whatever, I¡¯ve told you. Keh suddenly stood up and touched her head. ¡°Don¡¯t worry. This won¡¯t happen again.¡± This scene was just seen by Emma. [e) Chapter 222 She thought. ¡®Humph. Sure enough! ¡®Cassandra is a not simple person. She seduces Mr. Zelinski on the yground when she is alone. ¡®Does she want to be special? Does she want to be in the limelight during the summer camp?¡± Emma was not reconciled. Today, she had been stolen thunder by Cassandra. How could Emma stand it? Emma thought, ¡®Cassandra, just you wait! On the yground, Keh reached out to pull Cassandra up and said, ¡°Get up. It¡¯s time to assemble.¡± She checked the time and thought it was almost the time. She said, ¡°Okay. Go back to wash up and sleep.¡± However, she didn¡¯t expect that these instructors would disturb them at two o¡¯clock in the morning. Chatper 223 Chapter 223 Beep! Beep! The whistle downstairs was louder than ever. ¡°Get up! Assemble!¡± The loudspeaker downstairs reminded everyone, which made them couldn''t fall asleep. Cassandra sat up suddenly, put on her clothes, and ran down. Other people in her dormitory sat up reluctantly andined, ¡°What¡¯s going on? Can¡¯t we sleep?¡± On the first day, they learned how to stand at attention and had an education ss. Now it was evening, but they couldn¡¯t sleep. So the peopleined about it. ¡°I''m sleepy. My legs hurt from standing for so long during the day They didn¡¯t dare to go to bed when they were resting, for fear of messing up the well-made bed.. But it was their bedtime. Why couldn¡¯t they sleep? Cassidy picked up her phone and checked the time. Her eyes widened in surprise. ¡°It¡¯s 2:17? Are they crazy?¡± She wondered, ¡®Assembling urgently at about 2 a.m.?¡± However, the whistle and loudspeaker didn¡¯t stop sounding. At this time, Cassandra was already dressed, except for the belt of her coat. She put on her shoes and went downstairs directly. She tied her belt while walking. When she arrived downstairs, some people were already in the queue. ¡°Girls from the traditional medicine major,e here.¡± Baron felt a little better when he saw Cassandra because all the students in his team hadn¡¯te down yet. Cassandra was the first one. Seeing this, Cassandra hurriedly stood in the line. There were only a few boys next to her. One minuteter, Yannick began to countdown. ¡°Those who can¡¯te down in thest thirty seconds have to run 10ps around the yground.¡± As soon as his words came out, all the people standing outside felt lucky. Sofia returned to the team at thest second. rge number of girls who were stuck at the door of the dormitory building felt a little nervous, including Cassidy and Emma. 0 22% Chapter 223 n ¡°Every instructor counts your men. Recognize those who don¡¯t return to the team and take them to the yground for a penalty run. The rest of the students were dismissed. This kind of behavior was extremely confusing. Everyone had to run 10ps around the yground in the middle of the night, leaving them fully awake. The point was that they would start to be trained after running back to the dormitory. Everyone cursed these instructors thousands of times in their hearts.. In the next few days, training was in full swing. The instructors taught the students of their teams to do boxing, quick march, goose-step, and double march. After teaching the basics, they asked students to practice push-ups every morning. Aweekter, they allowed the students to touch the weapons. Today was about shooting teaching. At present, there were only two teams in the range¡ªone from the physics major and the other from the traditional medicine major. The shooting range of the Falcon Special Operations Force was veryrge, which allowed 25 people to shoot simultaneously. After all, this was the strongest team in the country, so it naturally needed. the best equipment. However, it was said that the Falcon Special Operations Force had a base built by the chief at his own expense. The chief was Keh. People didn¡¯t know if it was this base. Baron said, ¡°We''ll learn shooting today. Does anyone know how to shoot?¡± Emma, Sofia, and Cassidy raised their hands. These three youngdies had extraordinary family backgrounds, so they naturally had known these things before. ¡°Out of rank, you three.¡± Emma raised her head proudly and nced at Cassandra provocatively. Emma thought, ¡°What if you¡¯re a straight-A student? You can¡¯t know anything else. Maybe your family has no money, so you can rely on nothing but your good grades. How could people like Cassandra afford to y with anything that rich people do?¡± Emma had already asked someone to investigate Cassandra. She knew that Cassandra grew up in the countryside, and was recognized by her biological parents but was not loved. Emma thought, Her father seemed to die a few days ago, but she is still so calm. She is indeed a learning machine. without emotions Baron asked Emma, Cassidy, and Sofia to put on their equipment and have apetition. 0 Mar 22%2 Chapter 223 Each of them had two shots. The result proved that Emma¡¯s score was the highest. She got 1.8 points, while Sofia and Cassidy only got 1.5. However, their scores were not bad. Baron said, ¡°Well, you¡¯re very good at shooting. Emma. You must have practiced it for a long time.¡± Emma nodded confidently. ¡°I have been interested in shooting since | was a child. so | practice almost every week.¡± Baron nodded and didn¡¯t say more. He thought. ¡®Practice makes perfect. She is skillful and made remarkable achievements? Baron asked Emma to take her post and said, ¡°See? This is shooting. | asked your ssmates to do a demonstration. | hope you can also have good grades. Those who get the lowest scores will not be able to get the certificate ofpletion.¡± Baron briefly exined the essentials of shooting. As for how well they could shoot, it was up to the students themselves. They went forward to shoot in rows, but the results were not very ideal. Someone even got a zero score. Cassandra thought, ¡®Anyway, as long as | don¡¯t get to the bottom. So, she got 2.5 points with 5 shots. Baron was speechless. He thought, It turns out that Emery is not an all¡ªaround yer. She failed with a score of only 2.5: He suddenly felt that he could surpass Emery in this aspect. He felt good. Seeing Cassandra¡¯s shooting result, Emma ¡®couldn¡¯t help but sneer. Emma thought, ¡®She only got 2.5 points. When | first shot, | didn¡¯t have such a poor result.. ¡°So what if you got the highest grade on the SAT? You''re still defeated by me. ¡®Till defeat you in shooting.¡± ¡°Sir, | don¡¯t think we can tell who is good or bad in shooting by this. There is noparison between us. How about we y some new tricks?¡± Emma suggested.This content is ? N?velDrama.Org. Baron asked, ¡°What kind of new tricks?¡± All of a sudden, Baron became interested. He was really not enthusiastic about teaching like this. Emma said, ¡°As long as the best one in target shooting in our two teams can surpass me, you can reward them. What do you think?¡± Emma thought. Anyway, the reward won''t be achieved. What if | bet more? 0 10:50 Tue, 5 Mar 21 M Chapter 223 Baron hesitated for a moment. Well, would it be unfair to other students?¡± Emma said, ¡°Only rewards can arouse the fighting spirit of students. Isn¡¯t that good?¡± 22% Keh didn¡¯t expect that his soldiers would be led by a student. Keh thought. Has it been too long since they experienced and toughened? How could he think everything makes sense? However. Baron felt that this was reasonable, as the captain had motivated them in this way. Baron said. ¡°Well, then who defeats you don¡¯t need to train tomorrow. Just take a day off. Finally, he said. ¡°If you can beat me, you can rest for three days and get the certificate ofpletion.¡± Cassandra had little interest in the former but was interested in thetter. Emma smiled proudly. The people who could beat her must be professionals, otherwise, this group of people could only be defeated. Cassandra had shown off during the training, so Emma was not paid attention to at all. Sofia was itching to have a try. ¡°Sir, can | have a try?¡± Sofia couldn¡¯t win Baron, but she could try to win Emma. A day off was also a vacation. Sofia was really tired. The training really cured her insomnia for the past two years, and she could fall asleep with a pillow ¡°Okay¡± Baron nodded and motioned for Sofia to put on the equipment Chatper 224 Chapter 224 The result was not satisfactory. Sofia was defeated by Emma by a 0.1 score, so Sofia couldn¡¯t win the vacation. Sofia returned to the team in frustration. ¡°Sir, | want to give it a try.¡± Cassidy raised her hand. Since Sofia had tried it, Cassidy wanted to try it too. Cassidy felt that Sofia¡¯s score being just 0.1 points lower than Emma¡¯s was embarrassing- ¡°Bang! Bang! Bang!¡± After ten shots, Cassidy was defeated by Emma by a 0.2 score. Cassidy couldn¡¯t believe it. She thought, ¡®How could it be? ¡®How could | be no better than Sofia? I''ll beughed at by herter. Next, several people went to challenge Emma but all were defeated. Emma hadn''t waited for Cassandra to challenge, and she couldn¡¯t help but feel a little anxious. Emma did not want to shoot with other irrelevant people. What she wanted to defeat was Cassandra. ¡°Cassandra, won''t you try? A day¡¯s break is precious, isn¡¯t it?¡± Emma couldn''t help but ask, hoping to get Cassandra involved. Cassandra said, ¡°Well, it is. But | think the reward of winning Mr. Moore is more attractive for me.¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t look at Emma. Perhaps it was Cassandra¡¯s illusion. She always felt that Emma looked at her with an unkind eye and was even a little bit targeted by her. Cassandra didn¡¯t remember who she had offended since the term began. Though Cassidy was not good to her, Cassidy only attacked her with words. However, Emma directly called Cassandra by her name now. What would it be if it was not targeting? However, Cassandra was not interested in outsiders¡® targeting. ¡°Cassandra, are you going to challenge me?¡± Baron nced at Cassandra and asked in disbelief. He wondered, ¡®Didn¡¯t she only get 2.5 points with 5 shots? Did Emery hide her strength?¡± ¡°Yes.¡± Cassandra nodded affirmatively. However, Emmaughed sarcastically, ¡°Cassandra, are you sure? You just got a 2.5 score. How do you think that you can win me and Mr. Moore?¡± = [e) 10:50 Tue, 5 Mar MM Chapter 21 Her tone of disdain was not hidden at all. ¡°It doesn¡¯t seem to have anything to do with you. Cassandra frowned. ¡°No. It¡¯s my idea. | don¡¯t allow anyone to be arrogant and boast.¡± Emma¡¯s words made Cassandra frown and look a little impatient. Cassandra said. ¡°You can see if I¡¯m bragging with your eyes.¡± Cassandra stood in front of Baron and asked. ¡°Shall we start now?¡± 25S22%H Baron was stunned. He thought. If Emery¡¯s performance is at the same level as before, won t she be easily defeated by me?¡¯ Y-Yes... ¡°No way!¡± Emma was the first to refuse. ¡°Emma, the rules are made by you. You didn¡¯t say that you must be challenged before we challenge Mr. Moore. What | am doing now doesn¡¯t seem to affect you. Cassandra also sounded impatient. ¡°You... You have to challenge me. Only after defeating me can you challenge Mr. Moore. Otherwise. what if you disgrace our college?¡± Emma¡¯s words brought the matter to another level. Challenging Emma was an internalpetition among students. They could say that they were ying However, challenging Baron meant apetition between the university and the instructors at the base. If Cassandra lost, it would be a disgrace to their university. The honor of the university could not be ruined by a freshman. ¡°| think Emma is right. If Cassandra directly challenges Mr. Moore, it will be a joke in case loses. e she ¡°Are you out of your mind? The game was put forward by them, and the rules were also made by them. Did they say that we have to win Emma before challenging Mr. Moore? No. Cassandra isn¡¯t wrong ¡°But | think it¡¯s enough to have apetition among us students. Does she want the three¡ªday vacation? Isn¡¯t it self-disgrace?¡± ¡°| think Cassandra is overconfident. | didn¡¯t dare to challenge Emma even though | got a 3 score. But she got 2.5. How dare she challenge Mr. Moore? She will lose miserably.¡± For a moment, the team lost its original discipline and began to be noisy ¡°If | defeat you, you won''t stop me, right? Cassandra asked.This is property ? of N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Of course. The premise is to win me, Emma said confidently After all, she got 9 points with 10 shots. MI 0 10:50 Tue, 5 Mar MM Chapter 224 Even most of the boys who liked shooting didn¡¯t have her grades. ¡°Okay.¡± Cassandra walked to Emma and said, ¡°Let''s start.¡± 8.22% Emma didn¡¯t expect Cassandra to walk towards her so confidently. She wondered why Cassandra had the confidence. ¡°Okay, but how about we change the stake?¡± Emma said. Cassandra frowned. She wondered, ¡®Why is there so much trouble?* ¡°No, just do as you said before. Let¡¯s start.¡± Cassandra just wanted to finish it and get some rest. However, Emma stood there without moving, ¡°Well, we can make a bet alone. The loser will be punished. It can be considered a lesson to the loser. At least we should recognize our own strength, right?¡± Cassandra could be pretty sure that Emma was targeting her. ¡°Then tell me what the penalty is?¡± Since Emma took the initiative to ask for the punishment, Cassandra decided to help her. Though Cassandra couldn¡¯t avoid it, she could face it. ¡°How about the loser running 50ps around the yground? Emma asked. She wanted Cassandra to be punished badly, teaching her a lesson. To Emma, on the first day, Cassandra stole her thunder and her right to speak as the student. representative and be smug to speak without a draft. After so many days of training, Cassandra showed off again and again, making her effort invisible to everyone. She hated Cassandra. As soon as Emma put forward her suggestion, everyone present felt it a little bit ruthless, and even Baron frowned. 50ps for a standard yground with a track of 400 meters was 20 kilometers long. It was longer than the distance of field training. Unexpectedly, Cassandra didn¡¯t take it seriously at all. She said, ¡°Okay. Does it work for Mr. Moore?* Baron was speechless. He was afraid somehow. He said, ¡°Well... This is a bet between you. It has nothing to do with me.¡± He thought, ¡°I finally began to train you and don¡¯t have to get up and run every day. How could | go through this as an instructor?¡± [e) SEND GIFT 10:50 Tue, 5 Mar MM Chapter 224 Cassandra said, ¡°Then | won¡¯tpete unless...¡± Emma asked, ¡°Unless what?¡± n Cassandra said, ¡°Unless you can make the stake higher with Mr. Moore. If | win, | can go out on a three¡ªday vacation, but if | lose, | will ept any punishment.¡± Emma¡¯s eyes were full of disdain. She thought Cassandra was overconfident. ¡°Mr. Moore, what do you think?¡± Baron said, ¡°Well... | have to ask Mr. Zelinski.¡± It was not up to Baron at all. The three-day vacation was easy to give. In the base, he could find some excuses to help Cassandra take a break. But if she wanted to leave the base, it had to be approved by Keh. Cassandra said, ¡°Then let¡¯s find the one who can decide. If we want to bet, just make the stake higher.¡± Baron sent a message to Kayden nervously. It happened that Kayden and Keh were checking the situation at various training grounds. Keh nced at the message and said, ¡°Let''s go and have a look.¡± Cassandra was going to start ughtering scumbags again. Keh would be interested to see it. Chatper 225 Chapter 225 The team¡¯s discipline was already out of order. Sofia took the opportunity to walk up to Cassandra. and said, ¡°Cassandra, let it go. There are only a few days left for training anyway. There is no need to bet on yourself just for the break.¡± The 50ps mentioned by Emma sounded horrifying. Emma was good at shooting, and few people could beat her. Even she couldn¡¯t reach the score of 9 points per shot, not to mention Cassandra¡¯s score just now was a little miserable. If she lost and ran 50ps, she couldn¡¯t stand it. But before Cassandra could speak, Kayden and Keh had arrived. ¡°Mr. Zelinski.¡± Baron saluted Keh. ¡°What''s going on?¡± Keh asked. Keh frowned after Baron told him everything that had happened just now. Keh thought, ¡°What does Cass want to go out for? ¡®For Benjamin¡¯s funeral? ¡®It seems to be today. Is she going to give a surprise?¡± ¡°Well, | agree,¡± Keh said. Then he said to Baron, ¡°If you lose, you''ll run 50ps.¡± It was a shame. Baron was speechless. He thought, ¡®Does he need to be that ruthless?¡±This is property ? of N?velDrama.Org. Only Keh knew that Emma would definitely run 50ps around the yground if shepeted with Cassandra. In the case of running when Cassandra and her opponents were moving, she could hit their tires. with uracy. Even Yannick couldn¡¯tpete with her in the actualbat, let alone those students. Emma didn¡¯t expect that Keh would agree so easily. She thought, ¡®Humph, you really have a misdemeanor. How dare you seduce Mr. Zelinski in private? Although Mr. Zelinski wears a mask, judging from half of his face, | can tell that he must be very handsome and the perfect-appearance I¡¯ve ever seen. Cassandra went to the prep stand and was ready for thepetition. The equipment had been put on, so Emma had no choice but to step forward. Ill Chapter 225 Emma said to Cassandra, ¡°I hope you can abide by the bet, instead of not taking it seriously just because you have a backer.¡± 70% n Cassandra said, ¡°Instead of worrying about me, you should worry about yourself. Think about how to run 50ps.¡± Seeing that they were all ready, Baron said, ¡°Shoot.¡± The gun sounded as a signal. ¡°Bang... Bang Bang... Cassandra fired ten shots at once, put down the gun, and took off her earmuffs and goggles. ¡°Read the target.¡± Cassandra stepped down and stood in front of the line. Emma also finished. ¡°Mr. Moore, please read mine first.¡± Emma wanted Baron to read her target first because she thought she was the best shooter and enjoyed certain privileges. She thought she could defeat Cassandra with an overwhelming victory. Baron nced at Keh and Cassandra and felt helpless. He didn¡¯t care if she was an ordinary student, but it was Emery. Baron felt scared. Cassandra said indifferently, ¡°I don¡¯t mind.¡± Baron breathed a sigh of relief, walked to Emma, and the target moved in front of him. ¡°Emma, @)2, Compared with just now, she had improved. Once reaching 9 points, it was hard for one to make a breakthrough. Baron walked to Cassandra¡¯s position and the target moved in front of him. ¡°Cassandra, 10.9?¡± He couldn''t believe what he saw. He wondered, ¡®Didn¡¯t she just get 2.5 points? How could that happen?¡± Keh smiled. Even Kayden felt honored as his younger sister was so excellent. Even if Cassandra hadn''t epted them yet, it didn¡¯t affect his pride. Emma couldn''t believe it. She thought, 10.9? Who got 10.9? Cassandra?¡® ¡°No! Impossible!¡± Emma didn¡¯t believe it at all. She walked forward and looked at Cassandra¡¯s target, and she was silent. It was really 10.9. ¡°You cheated.¡± Emma didn¡¯t believe that Cassandra could do so well. ¡°During the practice just now, you only got a 2.5 score with 5 shots and failed. How can you get 10.9 points now?¡± 11:29 Wed, 6 Mar RD Chapter 225 Emma thought, ¡®Someone must have helped her. Yeah, she knows Mr. Zelinski. He must have tampered with the target. Cassandra said, ¡°Who told you that | used all my strength before?¡± Baron said that those with the lowest scores were not qualified, so she just needed not to be at the bottom. ¡°You...¡± Emma couldn''t speak. Keh smiled and thought, ¡®Is Cass pretending to be weak?¡± A 2:5 score with 5 shots was really a bad score, but for Cassandra, even if she closed her eyes to shoot, she would get a better score. She must have deliberately done that. ¡°| won. ording to the bet,¡± Cassandra said and looked at Emma. ¡°You have to run 50ps around the yground. That¡¯s what you said.¡± Cassandra turned to Baron and said, ¡°Mr. Moore, it¡¯s our turn.¡± Baron was speechless. He really wanted to go back to half an hour ago and beat himself for making a hasty choice. ¡°Cassandra, | don¡¯t think it¡¯s necessary.¡± Baron thought, ¡®It¡¯s embarrassing to lose. Cassandra said, ¡°No, | want a three¡ªday break rather than one day.¡± It was the so-called ¡°sow the wind and reap the whirlwind*. Baron nced at Keh, only to see Keh staring at him. Baron swallowed unconsciously. He had to do it. As imagined, Baron got 10.8 points. Cassandra got 10.9 points again. She had three days of vacation. Keh said, ¡°Well, since Cassandra wins, you have a three-day break. | will tell the doorkeeper that you can go out with your written request for leave.¡± Cassandra said, ¡°Thank you, Mr/Zelinski.¡± That was awesome. Keh had no reason to stay there, so he and Kayden were about to leave. ¡°Mr. Zelinski, it¡¯s inappropriate. Don¡¯t you think it is ridiculous that your soldier lost to Cassandra, a student?¡± said Emma. Ill wed, 6 Ma Clupter 225 Emma just didn¡¯t believe that Cassandra was so powerful that even defeated Baron. Her words made everyone present stunned. Keh turned to look at Emma and said calmly, ¡°What do you mean?¡± 70% Emma snorted coldly, ¡°You and Cassandra have an unusual rtionship. Do you need me to make it clear? Cassandra knows nothing, but you can let her get a 10.9 score. You helped her cheat, didn¡¯t you?¡± Emma wasn''t afraid of the chief instructor ormander. Emma was just telling the truth. Besides, few people in Drieso could do anything to her. Even though Keh was themander, he had to show respect for Emma¡¯s grandfather. Keh snorted and said, ¡°Do you think | am the one who created difficulties in yourpetition. with Cassandra?¡± ¡°Aren''t you?¡± Emma asked back with jealousy. Cassandra frowned. She wondered, ¡®Can''t she stop?¡® She went straight forward and loaded her gun. She just nced at the sky and saw a flying sparrow. With a bang, the gunshot sounded, and the sparrow fell right in front of Emma. ¡°Is it necessary to cheat with such strength?¡± Keh asked. This was the best exnation. It was useless to say any more words. Sofia was stunned by this. She thought, ¡®Is this the strength of Cassandra?¡® Cassandra got the written request for leave as she wished. She changed into her regr clothes and walked out of the base. As soon as she walked out of the base, she felt a little hasty. This ce was deste with no cars... Suddenly, a car drove out. ¡°Let me give you a ride.¡± It was Keh. Cassandra smiled and got on the passenger seat directly. Chatper 226 Chapter 226 They were sitting in the car. Cassandra¡¯s skin didn¡¯t get tanned at all under the scorching sun these days. But Keh seemed to get a little sunburned. Was this the biological difference between men and women? ¡°Cass, are you going to the Yates residence?¡± Keh asked casually. Cassandra smiled without answering and looked at Keh. ¡°What? Should | tell you where I¡¯m going, Mr. Zelinski?¡± she asked. Cassandra raised her eyebrow. For some reason, she just wanted to retort Keh. ¡°Aren''t you going to report your schedule to me?¡± Keh nced at Cassandra with interest and asked pleasantly. However, after just one nce, Keh turned around and continued to look at the road ahead. ¡°What else can | do except go to the Yates residence? Cassandra said. Today was the seventh day of Benjamin¡¯s death. Matthew cremated Benjamin alone and prepared for his funeral today. He thought all his brothers woulde back. However, only Raymond and Yohannes came back two days ago. Until now, Leonardo, Frederick, and Jasper hadn¡¯t appeared yet. Matthew waspletely devastated at this moment. Keh said, ¡°Leonardo has been returned, but he has not yet been brought back to the Yates residence. When do you think would be suitable?¡± Thinking he might anticipate Cassandra¡¯s next move, Keh made the decision to provide her with more wood to intensify the fire. Cassandra thought that Leonardo was still staying on Desert Ind. She asked, ¡°Is he still alive after all this time?¡± It seemed that in her previous life, Leonardo was using his limits to test her. However, what Cassandra didn¡¯t know was that Leonardo had survived so far only because he dreamed of the way she tried to survive on Desert Ind in her previous life, Otherwise, he would have been eaten by those beasts in a week. Cassandra saved Leonardo''s life again. ¡°I''m also curious. He¡¯s not powerful, but he has survived on Desert Ind for so long. It¡¯s really amazing.¡± Keh was very puzzled about it. Leonardo wasn¡¯t good at fighting. He identally got the ind, so he was arrogant. However, Leonardo was lucky to survive on the ind. Wed, & Mar Chapter 226. Sometimes it is more painful to be alive than dead.¡± Cassandra snorted and said coldly, ¡°Send Leonardo to his father¡¯s funeral right now.¡± Benjamin was dead, and he deserved it. However, Since Benjamin was dead. Cassandra¡¯s origin was more like a mystery that couldn¡¯t be solved. Cassandra thought, ¡®Forget it. | don¡¯t have family anyway, so there is no need to worry about that much. neth said, ¡°Okay, I''ll make a call¡± Then Keh called Yannick and asked him to send Leonardo to the Yates residence. At the funeral ceremony, Matthew and his brothers were in attendance, and Benjamin¡¯s sympatheticrades also paid their respects. It was not their fault that the Yates family had be like this. If they helped the Yates family back then, their families would have been damaged. Everyone was selfish, so they put their interest first. No one expected Benjamin to die so quickly. Yohannes expressed his gratitude, saying. ¡°Thank you all for attending the funeral. He then proceeded to bow, and this gesture was followed by Matthew and Raymond. Since Leonardo was not home. Yohannes was the eldest of the three, so he took the lead in thanking the guests. ¡°Where''s Leo?¡± someone asked. Benjamin had six sons, and there were only three of them present. Yohannes looked embarrassed and said, ¡°To be honest, we don¡¯t know where Leo is Leonardo had been gone for such a long time without any message or phone call. It seemed that he had disappeared from the world. Frederick and Jasper also disappeared. On the uphill road near Benjamin¡¯s cemetery, a car suddenly appeared. Then something was thrown down from the car before it drove away. Everyone was a little curious. Then Yohannes found that the thing was moving, so he went up to check it. When Yohannes got closer he found something wrong. It was Jasper! ¡°Matthew, Ray! Come here!¡± Yohannes shouted, and he lifted Jasper to his feet. < 11:29 Wed, 6 Mar RD Chapter 226 ¡°Jace, are you okay? What happened to you?¡± Yohannes was anxious to check Jasper¡¯s condition. but Jasper was severely injured, and only his face was clean. ¡°Ouch! Don¡¯t touch me. It hurts!¡± Jasper felt that the drug in his body was about to take effect. Jasper roared desperately, but the pain in his body was not relieved. Matthew and Raymond were frightened by the scene. The guests also gathered around them. Someone kindly suggested, ¡°Call the police and an ambnce first. Jace is injured seriously.¡± It was not until then that Yohannes came back to his senses. He wanted to call the police, but all of a sudden, his phone was pped on the ground by someone who shouted, ¡°You can¡¯t call the police!¡± It was Frederick. No one noticed when he showed up. There was blood oozing from the corners of his mouth, and he looked no better than Jasper. ¡°Fred? What happened to you and Jace?¡± Yohannes was confused ¡°No, you can¡¯t call the police. Just call a doctor,¡± Frederick said. He had been locked in that dark room by the man who once coveted him. He whipped Frederick again and again. In the past month, Frederick¡¯s life was in hell, although he hadn¡¯t been raped. However, it was already a great insult to Frederick. Somehow, Frederick was suddenly taken out today. They said that he was free.This is property ? of N?velDrama.Org. Ya Those people left Frederick here, so the Yates family had seen what happened. Frederick didn¡¯t allow anyone to couldn¡¯t let anyone see them. | the police. The injuries on his body were a shame, and he Frederick and Jasper hade back, but they were all injured. Everyone was curious about what had happened to them. Yohannes said, ¡°Fred, even if we don¡¯t call the police now, the doctor will call the police when we go to the hospital.¡± The doctors would definitely suspect it since they were injured so severely. Even if the doctors treated Frederick and Jasper, they would call the police afterwards. ¡°Let''s go to a private clinic, Frederick said and was afraid of exposure. He didn¡¯t want to go to a regr hospital. He would be inferrogated. Frederick squatted on the ground with his head in his hands, seeming to be very scared. Yohannes and others couldn¡¯t understand such a move. Matthew suddenly asked, ¡°Fred, where have you been these days? Do you know what happened at home?¡± ¡°No, | can¡¯t tell you. Nothing happened,¡± Frederick said. Ill 11:29 Wed, 6 Mar Chapter 226 Frederick seemed to be chattering and talking to himself. The onlookers whispered, ¡°Is he crazy? Why is he talking to himself? He seems to be insane.¡± ¡°Where have they been? Why did theye back with injuries?¡± ¡°Yeah, and they came back at their father¡¯s burial. How could Benjamin rest in peace?¡± ¡°s, what a sin! Miranda killed Benjamin and is in jail now. The children are so unfortunate!¡± ¡°Are you telling the truth? | just heard that, but | don¡¯t know whether it is true or not¡± ¡°Of course, it¡¯s true. My nephew is the officer who handled Miranda¡¯s case. He saw it clearly. Benjamin was strangled to death by Miranda.¡± Suddenly, a female voice sounded, ¡°Well, why are you all here? What¡¯s the fun?¡± Everyone looked over and saw Cassandra. Chatper 227 Chapter 227 Yohannes was a little surprised that Cassandra came. ¡°Cassie, it¡¯s you. Are you here to attend Dad¡¯s funeral?¡± Yohannes and Raymond left the Yates family early and didn¡¯t know much about many things that happened in the family. ¡°Yeah, I¡¯m. | want to give you a big gift by the way. You should thank me for making so much effort to make your brothers reunite,¡± Cassandra said with a smile and looked at them with hatred. Yohannes realized something was wrong and asked in confusion, ¡°What... What do you mean? ¡°| brought Leo back to you,¡± Cassandra said. Suddenly, a car stopped in front of Yohannes. The mant in the car threw Leonardo down. Because Leonardo had been back for a few days, his long-standing injuries began to scab over. He was in better spirits than Jasper and Frederick. The appearance of Leonardo caused an uproar among the guests. All of a sudden, the six brothers all showed up. Leonardo struggled to stand up and said in a hoarse voice, ¡°Yohannes, Matthew, Ray. Then he saw Jasper and Frederick lying on the ground. ¡°What''s wrong with Frederick and Jace? Leonardo asked worriedly. Matthew felt relieved when he saw Leonardo. The 22-year-old young man sat directly on the ground and began to cry, ¡°Leo, where the hell have you been? Do you know what happened in our family during this period? | can¡¯t handle it alone!¡± For Matthew, his father died, and his mother became a murderer who killed his father. Miranda choked Benjamin to death in front of Matthew. How could anyone ept such a cruel thing? Cassandra became interested when she saw the harmonious way they treated each other. She said, ¡°Did you go too far? | sent you back, but you didn¡¯t even thank me.¡±Content provided by N?velDrama.Org. Only then did Leonardo see Cassandra with aplex expression in his eyes. For more than a month, it was not his family but Cassandra who had supported Leonardo. Whenever he fell asleep at night, he would be haunted by nightmares. The dreams were all about Cassandra on Desert Ind and how he sent Cassandra there and picked her up with injuries all over her body. However, only a few days after Cassandra was brought back, the wounds on her body were still clearly visible, but she died at the hands of the Yates brothers. Leonardo didn¡¯t know if it was a dream or something that happened in his previous life. 11:29 Wed, 6 Mar RD Chapter 227 When Leonardo saw Cassandra again, he feltplicated. ¡°Bang!¡± Suddenly. Leonardo knelt in front of Cassandra. 70% ¡°Cassic, I¡¯m sorry. I¡¯m a bastard. If | had held on and didn¡¯t trust Yulissa so much, maybe you wouldn¡¯t have suffered so much. And what happened on Desert Ind is all my fault, Leonardo said. Just now, Cassandra looked like she was watching a good show, but when she heard Leonardo mention Desert Ind, her expression changed instantly and her tone turned very cold, ¡°Did you see the scene of Desert Ind?¡± Leonardo was stunned for a moment and then nodded, saying, ¡°Yes. During my stay in Desert Ind, as long as | closed my eyes, | saw you living there. It was those pictures of you that made me survive on Desert Ind for so long.¡± ¡°Leonardo, in this case, | saved your life, but | died at your hands. You are really good at repaying kindness with evil, Cassandra said and raised her head. Then he looked at Leonardo, who was kneeling on the ground. ¡°I''ll never forgive you even if | die,¡± Cassandra said. Leonardo''s face turned pale. Was there no room for redemption? ¡°Cassie, | know that | was wrong. Please give me another chance. | will definitely change and treat you as a princess. Forgive me for once. However, Leonardo¡¯s promise could not move Cassandra at all. There was only hatred in Cassandra¡¯s eyes. ¡°Forgiveness? How dare you ask for forgiveness? Do you think what you saw was a dream? It was my personal experience. How dare you ask me to forgive you? Cassandra shouted in anger. Cassandra swung her hand and pushed Leonardo down directly. Raymond had no strength in his hands, so he hurriedly walked to Leonardo and carefully pushed him up. Raymond stood up and used Cassandra, ¡°Don¡¯t go too far! Do we owe you anything? You''re so ungrateful.¡± As soon as Raymond finished speaking, he was shocked. He had made up his mind to apologize if he could meet Cassandra today. But what did he just do? He med Cassandra again. No one would want such a family. ¡°Ray, stop it. We owe hernardo said. Everyone present couldn¡¯t understand what Leonardo was doing. The eldest son of the Yates family knelt down to the real Ms. Yates. Yeah, speaking of the real Ms. Yates, where had the fake Ms. Yates gone? ¡°Leo, what can we owe her? It seems that we have caused substantial harm to her,¡± said Raymond. Chapter 227 Once again, Raymond said something foolish before he could even think about it carefully. Cassandra said, ¡°It¡¯s not up to you whether you owe me or not, but it¡¯s up to me.¡± Cassandra made her way to Benjamin¡¯s grave, where his ashes were buried. She looked at Benjamin¡¯s photo and snorted, saying coldly. ¡°You deserve it.¡± However, Cassandra¡¯s words were heard by a woman who came over and shouted angrily, ¡°Why are you cursing your father? No matter what happened, Benjamin is your father. How dare you say that he deserves it in front of his tombstone? Aren¡¯t you afraid of being punished by God?¡± Cassandra cast a nce at the woman and retorted, ¡°I¡¯m afraid that when divine retribution descends, Benjamin won''t be present to bear it.¡± Matthew''s face darkened and he said, ¡°Cassandra, Dad is dead. You don¡¯t have to say such vicious words. Isn¡¯t the tragedy of the Yates family enough to satisfy you?¡± Cassandra said, ¡°| don¡¯t know who caused the tragedy of the Yates family, but it is you who caused. my tragedy. If you want peace, | will make him suffer forever!¡± Cassandra¡¯s eyes were bloodshot and frightening. Wasn''t it the Yates family that caused her death in her previous life? How could Benjamin''s death allow him to get away with his retribution? If it were not for her conscience, Cassandra would have cut out Benjamin¡¯s heart as soon as she knew he was dead to see if it was red. Yohannes helped Jasper, and Frederick followed him. They walked to Cassandra. When Jasper opened his eyes, they suddenly widened. ¡°No, no, | don¡¯t want anothe shouted in horror. injection,¡± he Jasper was so scared that he struggled desperately. Yohannes couldn''t control Jasper, but no one was willing to help. Cassandra raised her eyebrow and sneered. It seemed that Jasper had already been psychologically traumatized. What a useless man! He couldn''t even stand such a little torture. Cassandra couldn¡¯t help but think in her previous life, after she was tortured on Desert Ind, had Jasper considered her feelings when injecting those drugs into her? Yohannes looked at Cassandra helplessly and said, ¡°What the hell do you want? Leo has humbled himself to his knees, pleading for your absolution. Are we truly beyond redemption?¡± ¡°Yohannes, you shouldn''t apologize. | will fight you to death,¡± said Cassandra. Hearing this, Leonardo shouted, ¡°I don¡¯t want it!¡± Cassandra said, ¡°I¡¯m not a child of the Yates family. Stop pretending.¡± Chatper 228 Chapter 228 The crowd was shocked and began to whisper. ¡°She said she¡¯s not a child of the Yates family. What does she mean? Is she fake?¡± ¡°| think so. Telling from their reactions. | think they should have known it.¡± ¡°Well, poor Benjamin. He didn¡¯t even know that his daughter was a fake until he died.¡± ¡°Come on! If Cassandra is not a member of the Yates family, then it¡¯s normal for her to revenge on the Yates family after what the Yateses have done to her.¡± ¡°It''s not normal. At Benjamin¡¯s funeral, she brought the Yates brothers back who were all injured. Obviously, they have suffered much these days.¡± ¡°Anyway, | don¡¯t think Cassandra is wrong. She is not biologically rted to the Yates family, but the Yateses treated her unfairly and even violently. The Yateses are so disgusting.¡± Everyone was astonished. Leonardo and his brothers only knew that Yulissa was Miranda¡¯s illegitimate daughter, but they didn¡¯t know that Cassandra was not actually a member of the Yates family.This content is ? N?velDrama.Org. Only Matthew knew the truth, but he didn¡¯t have time to tell the others about so many things. Leonardo shook his head in disbelief and said, ¡°No, it¡¯s impossible! Aren¡¯t we half-brother and sister?¡± Cassandra said, ¡°Do you know why Miranda was prosecuted and sentenced?¡± Leonardo didn¡¯t understand why Cassandra had to ask such a question, but he only now knew that Miranda had been prosecuted. Leonardo looked at Matthew, who nodded to him. ¡°Why?¡± Leonardo asked. Cassandra answered, ¡°Because Miranda killed your half-sister 18 years ago, Lily sued her for murder. Understand?¡± Hearing this, Leonardo fell back in horror. His feet were weak, so he fell down. When he tried to get up again, he couldn''t. ¡°Mr. Yates, are you going to sit on the ground?¡± Cassandra nodded seriously and continued, ¡°Then sit here and say goodbye to your dear daddy.¡± Seeing that Cassandra was about to leave, Leonardo hurriedly stopped her and shouted, ¡°Cassie, don¡¯t go! Don¡¯t go!¡± Cassandra said. ¡°Leonardo, | have nothing to do with you. | will never forgive you.¡± Cassandra nced at Leonardo and the rest of the Yates brothers, saying, ¡°Miranda will be punished as she deserves. And you will start over again. You can torture each other with nothing.¡± | 11 29 Wed, 6 MarR Chapter 228 Yulissa had been tortured hard, and she would die soon. If Zack was reluctant to kill Yulissa, Cassandra would do it herself at that time. As for the six Yates brothers, as long as they didn¡¯te to provoke Cassandra again, she would possibly leave them a way out. Death was a relief to those who were in despair. The Yateses had lost everything. Now one of them was mentally ill, one had lost his leg, and one got hurt all over. Thinking of their lives in the future, Cassandra felt excited and wondered how they would torture each other. Cassandra had given her big gift to the Yates family. She had sessfully reunited the Yates brothers. After Cassandra left, she took out herptop from her bag and typed quickly on the keyboard. After a while, the words ¡°Transfer Seeded¡± appeared on the screen. Then she closed theptop contentedly and waited for Keh to pick her up. Seeing that Cassandra had left, the other guests were ready to leave. They thought that they¡¯d better not get involved in the affairs of the Yates family who was so pathetic. After a while, only the Yates brothers were left in front of Benjamin¡¯s tombstone. Looking at his brothers, Matthew was lost in deep thought. He wanted them toe back healthy instead of like this. Matthew thought, After taking care of Dad, will | continue to take care of my three brothers?¡± Keh picked up Cassandra. In the car, he could feel that her hostility had notpletely dissipated. ¡°Where are you going now? You still have two and a half days of vacation, Keh said. Hearing this, Cassandra became excited and said, ¡°| want to meet Miranda.¡± Cassandra must tell Miranda that Leonardo and his brothers had nothing and were in urgent need of money. Keh immediately turned around and headed for the prison, where Miranda was now used by the police of having killed Benjamin. ¡°Miranda, there¡¯s someone here to see you,¡± a jailor said. They met not through the ss, but in the meeting room. Miranda didn¡¯t expect that it was Cassandra. THI Chapter 228 ¡°Cassandra, what are you doing here?¡± When Miranda saw Cassandra, she was pissed off. ¡°I''m here to see how you are doing. Cassandra said carelessly, but the sarcasm in her eyes was obvious. ¡°You bitch, it¡¯s all because of you! How dare you say gloat here?¡± Miranda med everything on Cassandra. ¡°Miranda, did | ask you to throw away the baby 18 years ago or strangle Benjamin to death a few days ago? You did everything yourself. It''s impossible for you to nder me now,¡± Cassandra said. Cassandra came here to show Miranda something nice. Miranda shouted. ¡°If it weren¡¯t for you, how could Lily know that | took the baby away? Even if she knew it, she had no evidence. You did it!¡± It was Cassandra who provided the evidence to Lily and thewyer. Cassandra was amused by Miranda¡¯s logic andughed. She thought, ¡®Why is Miranda still so shameless now?¡± Cassandra said, ¡°The judge will sentence you for your crime. Just wait here.¡± She nced at Miranda and continued, ¡°Do you want to know how your sons are doing? Today is the seventh day after Benjamin''s death. He has been buried. Your sons have all come back. Hearing this, Miranda was astonished, and her eyes widened in surprise. Miranda wondered if she could be saved since her sons were all back. Is Leo back? And Jace?¡± Miranda asked eagerly. Cassandra said, ¡°They''re all back. Do you want to see the photos? | took photos of them today.¡± Cassandra raised her phone and Miranda nodded eagerly. She didn¡¯t expect that Cassandra would take photos of them. As long as Miranda could confirm that her sons were back, she believed that they must have a way to save her. Cassandra clicked on a photo and put it in front of Miranda. After a nce. Miranda threw the phone out with a scream. Cassandra said, ¡°My phone is worth over 200 thousand dors. Since you broke it, | will ask forpensation from you.¡± The phone Cassandra used was a multi-functional phone independently developed by Modern Beacon Synergy, which integrated the functions of most electronic products into one device. However, Miranda just broke it. Well, Miranda could be charged with damaging other people¡¯s property for a significant amount. Miranda didn¡¯t care about Cassandra¡¯s phone. ¡°Cassandra, what happened to my sons? Why did they get hurt? Did you lie to me?¡± asked Miranda. ¡ã 11:29 Wed, 6 Mar 2 Chapter 228 The photos must be fake. Miranda believed her sons were all very healthy. In the photos, the young men were skinny and covered with bruises. They were definitely not her sons. ¡°Believe it or not,¡± Cassandra took out herptop from her bag and said. ¡°There is a video of your daughter¡¯s recent situation. Do you want to see it? It¡¯s wonderful.¡± There was no monitoring in Zack¡¯sboratory. But somehow Cassandra found a red dot when attacking thework system of Fallvale Mansion. As expected, it was just a pinhole camera. If it weren¡¯t for the fact that the camera was connected to Zack¡¯sputer, Cassandra would have felt that it was the evil taste of those two doctors. ¡°How is Lisa now?¡± Miranda asked with concern. Chatper 229 Chapter 229 Miranda could scold Cassandra and ignore her, but now Miranda couldn''t do anything to help Yulissa at all. Yulissa must have suffered a lot since she had been controlled by that pervert. Cassandra saw Miranda¡¯s anxiety and snorted, saying coldly. ¡°What a loving mother! Yulissa sent you to prison, but you still care about her.¡± Miranda¡¯s expression froze when she heard this. It seemed that she hadn¡¯t expected Cassandra tot say those words. Miranda retorted confidently, ¡°Yulissa is my daughter. No matter what she did, she would always be my daughter.¡± Miranda was indeed disappointed at that time, but after she calmed down, she had forgotten the feeling of disappointment. When Miranda knew that Yulissa had gone to meet her perverted father, Miranda forgot everything.ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org . Miranda just wanted to know how Yulissa was now and whether Yulissa had gotten rid of the torture of Zack. Cassandra seemed to have heard a joke and sneered, saying, ¡°Good. | hope you think so after watching the video.¡± In the video, Yulissa was found by Zack. Zack cursed. ¡°You are a bastard. If your mother hadn''t set me up, you wouldn¡¯t have been born and made my wife devastated...¡± Yulissa said, ¡°Dad, I¡¯m innocent. | was just a baby at that time. It¡¯s all Miranda¡¯s fault. You shoulde to her!¡± Zack said, ¡°She is in prison now. Don¡¯t worry, | won''t let her go. But since you are here and found my wife, you should stay with her. Yulissa said, ¡°Dad, | was wrong. | was wrong. No, Mr. James, I¡¯m not your daughter. Please let me 1. go. Zack ordered his people, ¡°Tie her up. You can use her for the experiment. | don¡¯t want to see her live happily.¡± Seeing this, Miranda shook her head with red eyes and said, ¡°No, it¡¯s not true.¡± Yulissa had once again med all the mistakes on Miranda. Did Yulissa do it unintentionally or was it just her nature? However, Miranda then saw the two doctors torture Yulissa, use her as an experimental tool, and inject her with various reagents. Miranda was so distressed that she felt heartbroken. Yulissa was being treated inhumanely. Il Chapter 229 Suddenly, Miranda raised her head and looked at Cassandra fiercely, saying, ¡°It¡¯s you, right? Yulissa didn¡¯t know who her biological father was. You told her, right? Why are you so vicious?¡± Miranda suddenly realized that after she was put into prison, Yulissa had no money, so with Yulissa¡¯s ability, she couldn''t find out who her biological father was. However. Yulissa found that pervert and told him that she was his daughter in just a few days. The event went incredibly smoothly, undoubtedly due to Cassandra''s impable facilitation. Cassandra said, ¡°How could you say that about me? | was helping your daughter. She wanted to find her biological father and enjoy a wealthy life, so | helped her. Was | wrong?¡± Cassandra admitted that she did it. However, even if Miranda knew it, she could do nothing to Cassandra. Miranda shouted, ¡°You''re ruthless! Why did you do this to Lisa?¡± Mirandapletely forgot how the Yateses treated Cassandra in the Yates residence. In Cassandra¡¯s ear, Miranda¡¯s words sounded ridiculous. Cassandra suddenly stood up and looked straight at Miranda. Then Cassandra said, ¡°What have | done to her? It¡¯s all her own choice, isn¡¯t it? You are her mother, but you couldn¡¯t even stop her from getting what she wanted. What could | do?¡± Cassandra nced at the screen ying the video and said, ¡°You''d better think about how to avoid Zack¡¯s revenge.¡± Then Cassandra put herptop into her bag and was about to leave. ¡°By the way, you just broke my mobile phone, which is worth 320 thousand dors. Remember to ask your sons topensate me, or | will continue to sue you,¡± added Cassandra. Hearing this, Miranda instantly lost control of her emotions and shouted at Cassandra, ¡°You little trickster. How could you use such an expensive phone? You''re extorting me.¡± Cassandra sneered and pointed at the wall, saying, ¡°Look carefully, where are we? How dare | extort you here? Do you think too highly of yourself, or do you think | am tired of being a free individual? ¡°Idiot!¡± Miranda¡¯s face flushed crimson upon hearing Cassandra¡¯s words. They were in a prison thing with guards and policemen. If Cassandra dared to extort Miranda here, she would undoubtedly be inviting trouble. However, Miranda couldn¡¯tpensate for the money. Her sons hadn¡¯te to visit her for a long time. After Cassandra left the prison, she found Keh was waiting for her at the door. She was a little shocked. Didn¡¯t he leave all this time? Cassandra walked forward and asked seriously, ¡°Why are you going wherever | go today?¡± Chapter 229 Keh opened the passenger door very gently and said. ¡°Today, | will be chauffeur. Cassandra was surprised. your exclusive She believed that the chauffeur charged too much and she might not be able to afford it. Cassandra got in the car and threw her backpack into the back seat. Then she asked, ¡°May | use your phone? My phone was broken by Miranda.¡± Cassandra thought she shouldn¡¯t have handed Miranda her phone at that time, but they were too far apart. If Cassandra hadn''t handed it over, Miranda couldn''t have seen the video, which would not have helped achieve Cassandra¡¯s purpose. However, Miranda¡¯s movement was so fast that the guards couldn''t s stop her. Keh handed his phone to Cassandra and said, ¡°Here you are. How about | ask Yannick to get a phone for you? You can use it first.¡± Cassandra raised her eyebrow and said. ¡°I¡¯m calling Jeremiah to prepare a phone for me.¡± Keh remained silent. Why was Jeremiah again? When the phone was picked up. Jeremiah was wondering why Keh called him. However, he heard that it was ine. ¡°Why are you calling me on Keh¡¯s phone?¡± Jeremiah asked. Cassandra rubbed her forehead and said, ¡°My phone is broken. Please ask someone to send me a new one. ¡°Okay, what happened?¡± Jeremiah asked. Cassandra said, ¡°It was broken by Miranda. Well, forget it¡¯ Jeremiah said, ¡°Hold on, ine. We may need your help.¡± It was difficult for Jeremiah to say those words, especially when there were two men sitting opposite him. Jeremiah¡¯s face blushed instantly. He felt ashamed that they couldn¡¯t solve the problem, and they had to rely on ine for help. Cassandra said, ¡°But | have to attend military training.¡± Jeremiah said, ¡°That¡¯s easy. I''ll call the principal and ask him to tell the instructor to let you go. It¡¯s not a big deal.¡± Jeremiah raised his volume and Keh happened to hear him clearly. Cassandra said, ¡°Do you know who my instructor is?¡± wed, b MET Chapter 229 ¡°Who''s it?¡± Jeremiah asked. ¡°The owner of this phone, Cassandra replied. Hearing this. Jeremiah was silent for a few seconds before he hung up. Then Cassandra returned the phone to Keh and asked, ¡°Did you hear that?¡± Keh nodded and said, ¡°You put me in a difficult position. When will you go?¡± Cassandra said, ¡°Usually, when he encounters problems, unless they¡¯re particrly tricky, he won¡¯te to me. So | may have to go there as soon as possible.¡± Keh was rendered speechless. The reason why he led his team here to train college students was to see Cassandra, but now Jeremiah wanted her to go abroad. When Keh joined Falcon Special Operations Force, he must arrange enough tasks for Jeremiah. Chatper 230 Chapter 230 ¡°How long ¡°How long are you going to be there?¡± Keh asked. ¡°I''ll be back before the parade. What do you think?¡± Cassandra consulted with Keh. Keh didn¡¯t reply. It meant that Keh couldn¡¯t see Cassandra for the next few days. It was fine that Cassandra needed to rest. At least Keh could see her when he got out of the base, but now Cassandra was going abroad. Keh said helplessly, ¡°This is difficult for me.¡± But in fact, it was easy for Keh to let Cassandra go. He just needed to tell her teacher about the matter. Then Keh changed the subject and said, ¡°But Cassandra is the top student. You have the privilege.¡± ¡°Thank you.¡± Cassandra knew that Keh had agreed. ¡°Don''t worry. If there is any technical problem that cannot be solved by the base, you can contact me at any time; said Cassandra. Keh had given Cassandra the privilege, so she should promise something. ¡°Okay,¡± Keh said. Suddenly, Cassandra¡¯s stomach rumbled. Keh smiled and said, ¡°Let¡¯s go. I''ll take you to dinner.¡± Then Keh took Cassandra to a shopping mall on the fourth floor. After dinner, they went down by the esctor. On the third floor, Cassandra saw the exclusive shop of Thousand Dreams which was established by Cassandra with the identity of ine. Cassandra pointed to Thousand Dreams and said to Keh, Let¡¯s go to that store.¡± Keh looked in the direction of her finger. It was her brand. In the store, many richdies were choosing their favorite styles. Ashopping assistant dressed in a formal suit walked towards Cassandra and asked, ¡°Miss, can | help you?¡± Cassandra said indifferently, ¡°Thank you. I¡¯ll take a look first.¡± The shopping assistant knew that Cassandra wouldn¡¯t buy anything. She had seen this kind of 70% Chapter 230 person a lot. If someone really wanted to buy clothes, she would directly ask for the style she wanted. Those who just took a look around Thousand Dreams wouldn''t buy anything. ¡°Help yourself,¡± said the shopping assistant. All of a sudden, the shop assistant lost her enthusiasm. Keh frowned and wondered if these employees didn¡¯t know their boss. Cassandra didn¡¯t care about her and walked around the store. She hadn¡¯t been out shopping so rxed for a long time. Since the clothes were all designed by Cassandra, she knew best whether they were suitable for her, so she didn¡¯t n to buy anything. As Cassandra walked inside, the clothes became more and more exquisite. Generally speaking, Cassandra was satisfied with everything. However, she overheard an awkward conversation. Yasmine said, ¡°Jessica, do you think we should go to find Cassie? | feel bad about what happened before. Kayden and Thomas have been stopping us from going to her, but | don¡¯t like it.¡± Yasmine was talking to Jessica who was sitting opposite her. They ought to visit for the new autumn collection as they were seated in the lounge overlooking the disy of thetest season¡¯s offerings. Jessica said, ¡°I also wanted to find Cassie. | shouldn¡¯t have said that at that time. It was not what | meant, but upon reflection, | believe | must have hurt her.¡± Jessica¡¯s tone was full of regret. She thought that even if she suspected Cassandra, she should have patiently raised her doubts instead of directly denying what Cassandra said. The rtionship between Cassandra and Jessica had been fragile, and now they had stopped contacting each other. Yasmine said, ¡°Well, it''s also my fault. | was a little excited when | heard her say that Maximilian would die, so | forgot about her.¡± Yasmine wanted to cry when she thought about the scene, but she didn¡¯t mean to hurt Cassandra back then.ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Yasmine continued, ¡°It¡¯s no use regretting the past. Things have happened. Since she saved Maximilian and gave him the prescription to recover, | think we should go to her.¡± Jessica said, ¡°Yes, let¡¯s pick some new clothes and go find her together.¡± Then Jessica stood. wanted to go to the new product area to pick something. up and However, Jessica felt the gaze of someone and suddenly turned her head. Ill Wed, b Mar Chapter 230 Cassandra was standing there. She nodded at Yasmine and Jessica and was about to leave. Jessica and Yasmine did not expect to meet Cassandra here. They thought she was in military training. Was it already over? ¡°Hey, Cassie, don¡¯t go!¡± Yasmine shouted. Yasmine reacted quickly and hurriedly stepped forward to pull Cassandra. Cassandra said, ¡°Hello, Mrs. Yasmine Yates.¡± Yasmine¡¯s expression froze, and she almost lost the strength of her hand. But she didn¡¯t let go of Cassandra¡¯s hand and even said eagerly, ¡°Why are you in such a hurry to leave? Don¡¯t you want to see me and Jessica so much?¡± Cassandra said, ¡°Mrs. Yasmine Yates, I¡¯m sorry to overhear your conversation with Mrs. Jessica Yates just now...¡± Yasmine interrupted, ¡°Since you have heard it, why don¡¯t you tell us what you are angry about? Tell us, and we''ll change. Don¡¯t ignore us.¡± Yasmine¡¯s tears fell down in an instant. Then she continued, ¡°I really wish | had a daughter like you. When we didn¡¯t pick you up, not only did Maximilian feel guilty, but also me, your uncles and Jessica were all self-reproaching. Therefore, when you came back, you didn¡¯t know how happy we were. Every day, we wanted to find an excuse to meet you and see if there was anything you needed us. However, after our visit, you never took the initiative to look for us again. The only time you came to us, you said that we would have nothing to do with each other in the future. ¡°We could ept it, but Maximilian couldn¡¯t. Maximilian fainted because of this. | admit that | was too radical, but | didn¡¯t mean to hurt you. Afterwards, | regretted it every day. ¡°But you didn¡¯t even meet Kayden and Thomas anymore. Do you really have the heart to cut off all our contacts?¡± Yasmine¡¯s words made Jessica cry. She also came forward and said, ¡°Cassie, can you let this go the sake of Maximilian? We won''t beg you to go back to live with us directly, but can you stop rejecting us like this?¡± for At least, they wanted to see Cassandra more often. They couldn¡¯t imagine how hard it would be for Cassandra to live alone outside. Even if the ce Cassandra lived in was nice, she must feel lonely. Cassandra was not a cold¡ªblooded person. She nodded and said seriously, ¡°I didn¡¯t take what happenedst time to heart, so you don¡¯t have to ask me to forgive you. | also told Kayden about it. ¡°I''m used to living alone without my family. It¡¯s good for me, and | don¡¯t want to fit into a strange family, so maybe the way | did at that time was too radical.

I¡¯m afraid that you can¡¯t afford to buy a new dress here. Every girl in Drieso wants a dress of Thousand Dreams.¡± The saledy didn¡¯t hear what Cassandra said before. She only heard Cassandra say the clothes of thetest style didn¡¯t suit her. The contempt the saledy had suppressed just now finally overwhelmed her. Cassandra¡¯s expression changed, and even Keh¡¯s face darkened. ¡°What did you say just now?¡± asked Keh unhappily. The saledy shuddered involuntarily. The saledy¡¯s contempt just now was reced by fear. She didn¡¯t understand why the man who looked gentle just now suddenly became so horrible, exuding an aura of authority that seemed to belong to a king. She could tell that Keh was distinguished at a nce. She thought. ¡°Did | make a mistake and make a wrong deduction of this man¡¯s status?¡± But she still bit the bullet and continued, ¡°Am | wrong? Thousand Dreams is a clothing brand that every girl wants to have a dress of this brand, but this youngdy said it was not suitable for her. It could only be because she doesn¡¯t have enough money to buy one.¡± The saledy thought, ¡®She is dressed in clothes without a logo. They must not belong to any brand. I¡¯m afraid she must buy them from a stall at 100 dors at most. Of course, she can¡¯t afford even a dress of Thousand Dreams. ¡°Is this how you serve your customers? Doesn¡¯t the customer even have the right to see the clothes here whether he buys them or not?¡± Yasmine defended Cassandra and began to quarrel with the saledy ¡°Mrs. Yates, | didn¡¯t mean to bring you a bad shopping experience. I¡¯m sorry. I''ll drive thisdy away right now.¡± The saledy didn¡¯t think it was her fault at all. Instead, she thought it was Cassandra¡¯s fault. ¡°She is my niece. Who are you going to drive away?¡± said Yasmine loudly, which shocked the saledy. The saledy thought, ¡®She is Mrs. Yates¡¯ niece! What... what should | do?¡± ¡°Mrs. Yates, I¡¯m sorry. | didn¡¯t know...¡± Wed, b Mar Chapter 231 Cassandra frowned. Her face was full of impatience. She walked forward from behind Yasmine This is how you serve customers. Will you drive all the customers who can¡¯t afford the clothes here, while only serving the customers who can afford the clothes here? Is this the service principle of Thousand Dreams?¡± The saledy¡¯s face turned pale. She knew that she couldn¡¯t offend Yasmine¡¯s niece at all. Now she made a mistake, and it had be a weapon for Cassandra to me her. ¡°Miss, I¡¯m sorry. Please don¡¯t take it to your heart.¡± The saledy apologized, but she felt sick in her heart and thought. | am really unlucky today!¡± *Thave to take it seriously today. Ask the head of this store and your sales manager toe over.¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t manage her brand Thousand Dreams recently. She didn¡¯t expect that the employees of a store of Thousand Dreams would work like this. Yasmine and Jessica were also somewhat embarrassed. Yasmine said, ¡®Cassie, how about letting her gott Keh smiled and shook his head. ¡°Mrs. Yates. Thousand Dreams belongs to Cassandra. Just let her discipline her employees.¡± Keh was hinting at Yasmine to stay out of it. Yasmine stared at Keh with her eyes wide open. ¡°What do you mean? Thousand Dreams belongs to Cassie?¡± ¡°What? Didn¡¯t Kayden and Thomas tell you that Cassie is ine?¡± Yasmine and Jessica were dumbfounded. They didn¡¯t know it at all. Kayden and Thomas didn''t tell them about it at all. ¡°It''s already an open secret that Cassandra is ine and Samantha. Mrs. Yates, it seems that you don¡¯t surf the Inte often.¡± Yasmine indeed didn¡¯t surf the Inte much. She didn¡¯t even attend Thomas¡¯ concert or vote on Thomas¡¯s new songs. They didn¡¯t know about Cassie¡¯s live streaming until Cassie attended Hello, Life. The saledy was taken aback by Keh¡¯s words. The saledy thought in shock, ¡®Is she really ine? How could it be possible?¡± ¡°l asked you to call the head of this store and the sales manager over. Didn¡¯t you hear me clearly?¡± Cassandra looked at the saledy with a cold look. After a while, the head of the store and the sales manager arrived. The head of the store had just been promoted to manage this store and had never seen Cassandra. but the sales manager, Myrtle Jones recognized Cassandra at a nce. He hurried forward and said gracefully. ¡°ine, why are you here?¡± The sales manager thought, ¡®Why didn¡¯t anyone inform me that our boss is here?¡± 11:30 Wed, 6 Mar RD. Chapter 231 ht} The sales manager¡¯s words confirmed what Keh said, and the saledy was so scared that her face turned pale. ¡°Myrtle, long time no see.¡± Myrtle nodded and said in a ttering tone, ¡°It¡¯s indeed been a long time since west met. | know you are busy and can¡¯t take time toe here frequently.¡± ¡°If | don¡¯te.

Tell me what happened and | will deal with it. | won¡¯t allow anyone to destroy Thousand Dreams¡¯s reputation!¡± Myrtle promised with a serious look. ¡°Then let her tell you what had happened. Cassandra pointed at the saledy. The saledy was so frightened that she burst into tears, but she had to tell the truth in front of the boss. The saledy didn¡¯t expect that she would annoy the mysterious boss. ¡°You should treat all customers equally instead of differently. If you serve customers like before. what will the customers think?¡± Myrtle was really angry and was not acting. He had worked in Thousand Dreams for several years. He was satisfied with the work and the benefits. He had long made up his mind to work for ine, but he didn¡¯t find there was such an arrogant employee until today. ¡°Mr. Jones, I¡¯m sorry. | didn¡¯t mean it. The saledy apologized repeatedly. ¡°If an apology can solve all the problems after one makes a mistake, what is the point of having thew? You''re fired. Go get two months sry from the finance department and leave directly.¡± It was a decent job with a considerable sry, but the saledy lost it because of her mistakes. Seeing that Myrtle had handled it. Cassandra didn¡¯t say anything more.. ¡°ine, do you need anything?¡± Myrtle looked at Cassandra tteringly, hoping that she could let go of what happened. ¡°| don¡¯t want it to happen again. You can go back now.¡± The incident was over. Before leaving the store, Cassandra secretly went to the men¡¯s area in the store when Keh was not looking. She took two things, scanned her card directly, and left without paying. At the Zelinski manor, Tyler received some photos from his private detective. Chapter 211 Tyler squinted his eyes. In the photo, Keh smiled brightly, showing no feeling of gloom that he usually had. In the photo, there was a little girl beside Keh. The girl looked young, but Tyler could tell from Keh¡¯s gestures that Keh cared about the girl very much. However, Tyler found the girl seemed to look familiar. Tyler thought, ¡®Where have | seen her? It is in Whitecrane Hall. Yes, it is there, and Hugo was very respectful to her at that time. Why is she so close to Keh? Tyler then found that most of the photos sent back by the private detective were rted to the girl in the photo. He then realized that he needed to find a chance to meet the girl. Tyler thought, ¡®Keh locked his father and stepmother up and hasn¡¯t sent them back. Looks like | have to invite this little girl to the manor ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org . Chatper 232 Chapter 232 In the end, the principal approved Cassandra¡¯s leave directly because, in his eyes, such a straight-A student should do something for herself. Since Cassandra had something to do, the principal just agreed. The school counselor naturally had no objection since the principal had agreed to Cassandra¡¯s leave Cassandra packed up her things, and she had received the new cell phone that Jeremiah asked someone to bring to her. Cassandra was about to go to the airport. When she went out of the house, she met Keh again. When she pushed open the door, she happened to see Keh raising his hand in the air. preparing to knock at the door. You didn¡¯t go back to the base? Cassandra was a little surprised. She thought. Why is Kenne around all the time? Is it okay for him to be out of the base all the time? After all, he is the chief instructor. ¡°Since you want to go to the airport, you need someone to drive you there.¡± Keh had a good reason Keh thought. | can¡¯t let Cassandra go to the airport alone! Cassandra smiled faintly. ¡°Keh, you¡¯re strange.¡± ¡°Yes, you are right. You will know the reason in the future. Get in the car first.¡± Cassandra and Keh went to the underground garage, and Keh opened the passenger door for Cassandra very gentlemanly. After arriving at the airport. Keh apanied Cassandra to check in. Later, they wait in the waiting room. Keh followed Cassandra all the way, which made Cassandra a little suspicious. Cassandra thought. Doesn''t Zelinski Group need him or is the base bought by someone else? Why is Keh so idle all of a sudden? Cassandra couldn''t help asking. ¡°Keh, you appear to have a lot of free time now. Is that so?¡± Keh held his forehead helplessly and joked with Cassandra. ¡°Shouldn''t | have my own time? Or do you think it is annoying for me to stay here and want me to leave?¡± Keh pretended to be sad. Although Keh was a bit oily just now, he was indeed a bit sad because of Cassandra¡¯s words. ¡°No, | don¡¯t. | am just worried that my business would take up more of your time.¡± Cassandra knew that Keh had misunderstood, so she quickly exined. 70% Chapter 232 ¡°Your business is the most important thing.¡± After saying that, Keh picked up a magazine and looked through it casually. Keh¡¯s words arouse Cassandra¡¯s curiosity. Cassandra thought, ¡°What does he mean by the most important thing? Is he hinting at something?¡± However, Cassandra didn¡¯t think much about it. They just waited for the notice of boarding in the waiting room. Suddenly, Cassandra thought of what she bought at Thousand Dreams¡® store and realized that she hadn''t given them to Keh yet. Cassandra didn¡¯t remember if they were still in her backpack. Cassandra began to rummage through her backpack. Seeing that, Keh asked, ¡°Are you looking for something?¡± ¡°Yes, | thought of two little things. | don¡¯t know if they are here.¡± With her head down. Cassandra sounded a little down. Keh thought they might be important to Cassandra, so he hurriedlyforted her and said, ¡°I see. If you can¡¯t find them, | can go back to help you get them. It¡¯s still early before the boarding¡± Cassandra rummaged for a while and suddenly took out two ¡°Got it!¡± cried Cassandra, happily. boxes from her backpack. Cassandra handed the two boxes directly to Keh and said, ¡°Open them and see if you like things inside.¡± Although Keh didn¡¯t shop by himself, he could still recognize the two boxes. He knew what was in them. Keh didn¡¯t expect that the things Cassandra had been rummaging in her backpack just now were actually for him. Keh took the boxes, put one on the armrest of the sofa, and quickly opened the other. It was a ck tie with some embroidered light patterns of cloud, which looked very exquisite. He surprisedly put the box on the armrest of the sofa, opened the other box, and saw an armband in it. The armband and the tie were a set, all embroidered with light patterns of cloud. They were just something that Keh always wore, but for Keh, they seemed different. Keh smiled unconsciously to show that he was in a good mood. ¡°Are these for me?¡± Cassandra seemed to be a little shy to admit it. She avoided looking at Keh¡¯s eyes. She nodded. ¡°Yes, | saw it in Thousand Dreams¡¯ store and thought it would suit you well, so | took them.¡± Chapter 232 Anyway, Cassandra didn¡¯t need to pay for these two things in her store. Keh grinned. ¡°Thank you. | like them very much.¡± It was just that Keh didn¡¯t wear a suit today. Otherwise, he would have put them on. He carefully put the two things into the boxes again as if he had received some rare treasure. While chatting, Keh touched the boxes asionally. It seemed to be a casual movement, but it showed that he liked the tie and armband very much. It might also be because it was the first gift from Cassandra and was particrly memorable. Cassandra also noticed Keh¡¯s movements, but she didn¡¯t ask. Cassandra just thought she was a bit stingy. Keh often took her to dinner and prepared gifts for her at her graduation party after she passed the SAT. She happened to see the tie and armband that day, so she took them away directly.ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Cassandra thought, I¡¯ve only known him for a short time, but | feel like | can¡¯t live without him. Cassandra shook her head and thought again, ¡®How could it be possible? It must be an illusion. ¡°Okay, thank you.¡± Cassandra nodded. ¡°You don¡¯t have to say thanks,¡± Keh rubbed Cassandra¡¯s head and said. ¡°I have something to tell you when youe back.¡± ¡°Huh? Can¡¯t you tell me now?¡± Cassandra was confused. Keh, however, didn¡¯t seem to mean to say it now. ¡°No, you get on the ne first. See you.¡± Over the next few days, Cassandra, Timothy, Cyrus, and Jeremiah worked day and night at Modern. Beacon Synergy. The tricky thing they mentioned before was actually a capital increase project. As long as they won this capital increase cooperation, Modern Beacon Synergy would be stronger, so Timothy attached great importance to it. 11:30 Wed, 6 Mar RD. Chapter 239 However, the ns they made and offered during this period failed to get the investor¡¯s satisfaction. 870% The ns that Timothy, Cyrus, and Jeremiah made jointly could only be regarded as a barely good n, so the investors were still unsatisfied with it. Timothy got distressed because of that. This project was the most difficult thing in his career. He was a stubborn man, so he was determined to get the capital increase project. As long as it was good for Modern Beacon Synergy, Timothy would not give up until he made the most perfect n even though he had been feeling exhausted. Cassandra helped Timothy, Cyrus, and Jeremiah a lot after joining them in making the project n in the past few days. Soon, they not onlypleted the n but also made a detailed analysis of the Al application and implementation poprization involved in the n. Besides, they developed an Al application. The Al application was definitely the highlight of thispetition. Sure enough, the investors thought highly of it and even increased the amount of investment. That was definitely a historical moment for Modern Beacon Synergy. ¡°ine, you¡¯re awesome. I¡¯d like you toe back to manage Modern Beacon Synergy for me, and | will be your assistant.¡± Timothy was so excited that he thought that only ine could help thepany grow stronger. The cooperation this time also proved that ine was very suitable to be a leader. Of course, Timothy knew it was a bit too much if he directly asked ine to manage thepany. Chatper 233 Chapter 233 Cassandra refused it directly. ¡°No, it¡¯s your business. I¡¯m going back.¡± The parade would be held the day after tomorrow. Since Cassandra had promised Keh that she would go back before that, she had to keep her word. Timothy was a little unhappy and stopped Cassandra. ¡°No, why are you going back? We''re all here.¡± ¡°Go back to study at the university.¡± After saying that, Cassandra left without looking back. Timothy was speechless. Timothy didn¡¯t expect Cassandra to give such a reason. Timothy thought, ¡®She is a business tycoon. She doesn¡¯t need to go to study at the university at all, doesn¡¯t she? No one would believe such an excuse.¡¯ Cassandra went back alone. Jeremiah had to stay behind to help with the aftermath. Jeremiah booked an air ticket for Cassandra.. After nearly 10 hours of flight, Cassandra finally arrived at Drieso International Airport. Keh heard the news and was waiting for Cassandra outside the airport. However, Cassandra was stopped by a group of people before she could walk out of the airport. Agroup of six people blocked Cassandra¡¯s way. They nodded at Cassandra and said coldly, ¡°Ms. Yates, pleasee with us. My master wants to see you.¡± Cassandra looked up at them with a cold look. ¡°No.¡± After saying that, Cassandra was about to walk around those people, but the man in the front directly blocked Cassandra¡¯s way. ¡°I''m afraid that you don¡¯t have a choice.¡± Cassandra snorted coldly. ¡°Who is your master?¡± ¡°Mr. Tyler Zelinski,¡± the man said truthfully. He knew there was no need to hide it from Cassandra.

Let¡¯s go.¡± The man in the front didn¡¯t mean to leave, but stopped Cassandra and said, ¡°We can¡¯t leave through the airport gate. Mr. Keh Zelinski is waiting for you outside.¡± The man in the front thought, ¡®Do you take me as a fool? If we walk out with you like this, I¡¯m afraid that Mr. Keh Zelinski will knock us to the ground at the gate of the airport directly. ¡°Then where do you want to leave?¡± ¡°The gate for staff only.¡± Cassandra got into the car with them and went straight to the Zelinski manor. Tyler sat in the living room, waiting for Cassandra¡¯s arrival. Tyler looked up and down at Cassandra, whom he thought was young. He wondered what was so special about Cassandra that even Keh was attracted. Keh seemed to be obsessed with Cassandra. Tyler couldn¡¯t understand it at all. ¡°Is this how you treat your guest? You asked someone to stop me at the airport and now you don¡¯t even serve me a ss of water.¡± Being looked at by Tyler, Cassandra was very unhappy as if a poisonous snake was looking at her as prey. ¡°Ms. Yates, you are quite eloquent, just like when you were in Whitecrane Hall before.¡± Tyler stood up and walked to Cassandra, looking at Cassandra intently. Cassandra frowned and was annoyed. ¡°If you don¡¯t want your eyes, just keep staring at me.¡± Tyler was stunned. His face darkened. Tyler thought, ¡®How dare she talk to me like that?¡¯ ¡°You are really brave, Ms. Yates.¡± Ordinary people would have been scared out of their wits when they were surrounded by a group of men in the same ck clothes. Cassandra, however, was still so calm as if she wasn¡¯t afraid that those people would really attack her. Chapter 233 Tyler thought, ¡®Could it be possible that she didn¡¯t take those men seriously at all?¡± Tyler suddenly realized something. He thought, ¡®How could the girl that Keh likes be an ordinary girl?¡± Cassandra ignored Tyler¡¯s words, bypassed him, and sat down on the sofa, n ¡°| don¡¯t need you to tell me that.

Of course, cooperation is beneficial.¡± Cassandra smiled, but her eyes were cold. ¡°No, I¡¯m not interested.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t you want to know what it is?¡± Tyler didn¡¯t believe that there would be someone who would really refuse the cooperation after he spoke out about what the benefit was. Therefore, he thought, ¡®She is really silly and ungrateful. | haven''t told her what it was yet. ¡°No. If you want to use me to threaten Keh, then | advise you to give it up because | will kill you before that.¡± Cassandra wouldn¡¯t let anyone use her to threaten her friends. ¡°How do you know | want to threaten Keh? | just want to make a deal with you.¡± Tyler smiled mysteriously. ¡°Keh likes you. | want you to be with him and let him release my son and his wife, that is, his father and stepmother. | will give you 100 million dors as a reward. What do think?¡± Tyler thought, ¡®It is just an easy task with a considerable reward. No one will refuse it. Although Keh had a bad reputation, he was the richest man in the world. Countless people wanted to marry him. you Therefore, Tyler thought it was a great gift for Cassandra that he allowed her to be with Keh now. Tyler thought, ¡®She is just a young girl. Even though she had Hugo help her, how much money can she have?¡± That was just Tyler¡¯s thoughts. Cassandraughed and said, ¡°You mean Keh likes me? Mr. Zelinski, don¡¯t overthink. Keh and | are just neighbors who take care of each other. She paused and added, ¡°Tell me the truth. How do you know that | will agree to your terms after Keh and | get married? Keh doesn¡¯t IllThis is property ? of N?velDrama.Org. [e) Chapter 235 care about 100 million dors at all, does he? Why should | choose to offend Keh just because of your 100 million dors?¡± Cassandra thought. Looks like he got anxious after his son was taken away and locked up. Is that the reason why he desperately asked his men to bring me here? How did hee up with such an idea!¡± ¡°You.. Tyler was not annoyed. He continued to persuade Cassandra. ¡°Even if he is willing to spend money on you, can you be sure that you can get all his money? | just need you to persuade Keh. You can get 100 million dors after you make it. Besides, you can marry him. Isn''t it a beneficial deal for you?¡± Tyler thought. You get all the benefits. What else can you not be satisfied with?¡± ¡°Mr. Zelinski, let me put it this way. | am not interested in your offer. Cassandra looked at Tyler indifferently. ¡°Firstly, Keh and | are not in a rtionship. You misunderstood. The future is unknown. Sorry, | can¡¯t let you lead me by the nose. Secondly, | don¡¯t know what makes you think that | am short of money. 100ion dors is really not much for me. Even if you increase it by 100 times, | won¡¯t be tempted. ¡°Mr. Zelinski. Keh is the most outstanding one in Zelinski¡¯s younger generation. Isn¡¯t it unreasonable for you and your son to treat him like this? If | were Keh, let alone Hector and Harriet. | would take you and Conrad away together. Your whole family should be punished, shouldn¡¯t you?¡± Chatper 234 Chapter 234 Keh had been waiting for Cassandra outside the airport. But Cassandra didn¡¯t walk out as he expected. Keh looked at the time and found that it had been almost an hour since the ne touched 003down. He thought it would take at most one hour for Cassandra to pick up her luggage. Keh dialed Cassandra¡¯s phone number, but it didn¡¯t get through. Keh then went to look for Keh at the airport, but he didn¡¯t see Keh either. Keh called Yannick and said, ¡°Check the surveince video at the airport. Cassandra is missing Yannick was confused and shocked. ¡°Mr. Zelinski, what happened?¡± ¡°| don¡¯t know either. Anyway, go and check the surveince video at the airport right away.¡± Yannick said, ¡°Okay, I''ll check it right away: Yannick, who was still continuing the military training, stood up and went to find someone to check Cassandra¡¯s whereabouts. Yannick thought, ¡®Mr. Zelinski really cares about Cassandra. | seldom see him getting panic¡ªstruck like this. Clearly, he likes Cassandra, we can all see that, except Cassandra herself.¡± Ten minutester, Yannick called Keh and said, ¡°Mr. Zelinski, Ms. Yates was taken away by your grandfather¡¯s men. ording to the road surveince, she was taken to the Zelinski manor.¡± Keh¡¯s face was full of gloom. He moved his lips and said in a cold tone. So cold was his tone that the temperature around him seemed to drop several degrees.. ¡°Take your men to the Zelinski manor. I''ll be there right now,¡± Keh drove to the Zelinski manor, running through red lights, speeding up and even getting on the wrong side of the road. The car flew ahead with traffic police chasing after it. However, Keh¡¯s car seemed to be fast. The traffic police couldn''t catch it at all. After arriving at the Zelinski manor, Keh found that Yannick and his men had already waited for him at the gate. When Keh rushed in angrily, he was shocked by what he saw. Cassandra knocked Tyler¡¯s bodyguards to the ground and even took time to take a sip of coffee calmly. Tyler was pissed off, sitting there panting. Seeing Keh, Cassandra smiled and said, ¡°Keh, | came to this ce because of you today. Remember to make it up to me. Cassandra, then looked at Tyler and said, ¡®Mr. Zelinski, do you still think your idea is right?¡± Chapter 234 S:83%HR Cassandra thought, ¡®How dare he say that I¡¯m just a weak girl who wanted to squeeze into the upper ss of Drieso by relying on Keh¡¯s identity. He even said that | was a bad girl ¡°You... Who the hell are you?¡± Except for Keh, Cassandra was the most capable fighter Tyler had ever seen. What shocked Tyler more was that Cassandra was just a little girl. Tyler thought, ¡°ording to the information | got about her, she was Benjamin¡¯s daughter and had been raised in the countryside. Why is she such a capable fighter!¡± ¡°Someone you can¡¯t afford to offend. Cassandra¡¯s words annoyed Tyler. Tyler said angrily. ¡°Don¡¯t be too arrogant.¡± ¡°Mr. Zelinski, Hector is not worthy of being a father. It¡¯s vicious for him to indulge his wife to kill his ex¡ªwife¡¯s child. Harriet killed Keh¡¯s mother first and then tried to kill Keh again and again. You and Hector just stood by. Hector and you are no different than being Harriet¡¯s aplice, right? ¡°Keh just locked them up. If it were me, | would make their lives a living hell. If you don¡¯t believe me, see what happens to Benjamin¡¯s family.¡± Cassandra kicked the bodyguard lying at her feet in front of Tyler and continued. ¡°You are old, but you never stop making trouble.¡± Cassandra walked up to Keh and said, I¡¯m fine. Let¡¯s go.¡± There were only a few people in the world who could hurt Cassandra. Keh held Cassandra behind him and walked towards Tyler. ¡®If it happens again, | let your son and daughter-inw suffer some pain first.¡± Tyler was so angry that he wanted to beat Keh. He covered his chest and said. ¡°You can¡¯t do this. It¡¯s your father. Even though Harriet did something wrong before, she is your stepmother. Besides, you have punished Conrad. What else do you want?¡± ¡°How could Conrad¡¯s pain be enough to equal to what I¡¯ve been through all these years? You know how many times Harriet tried to kill me after my mom died, but what did you do? ¡°Don¡¯t think you can get away by saying that you are protecting me. You did that because | have half of the shares of Zelinski Group. If | die, the other half will be donated automatically, and neither you nor Hector can get a penny. ¡°| was a fool before. For so many years, | thought you had been sending someone to protect me, and | believed you when you said that | misunderstood you. But you know, from the beginning. that what you want to protect is just my shares. Otherwise, you would not help clean up the trouble after Harriet finished attacking me. You just want to destroy the evidence.¡± Tyler once said that he did,that to train Keh, but Keh knew it was just an excuse. Even though Tyler appreciated Keh, it was only because he thought Keh could bring glory to Zelinski Group with his ability, not because Keh was his grandson. ni Chapter 234 Just like Tyler admired his mother, it was because Tyler thought that Keh¡¯s mother could make Zelinski Group stronger. Therefore, Keh knew that Tyler was a hypocritical man from beginning to end. This time, Tyler had no other choice but to take a risk as he couldn¡¯t find where Hector and Harriet were, so he sent people to investigate Keh. Keh thought he was too merciful to Tyler before. He thought, ¡®It seems that the Zelinski manor doesn¡¯t need to exist anymore. Tyler was not angry when he heard that his thoughts over the years had been exposed. Instead, he looked at Keh with appreciation and said, ¡°You are really something. You''re so smart.¡± After hearing that, Cassandra couldn¡¯t help but say. ¡°What a shameless man!¡± ¡°Tyler, thank you for your ¡®care over the years. | will take good care of you in the future.¡±ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org . Keh then ordered his men in a low voice, ¡°Yannick, send someone over immediately and invite Tyler to live in the house in the backyard 24 hours a day¡ªand-keep an eye on him. Without my orders, no one can visit him.¡± Keh then looked around the Zelinski manor and said, ¡°This manor has existed for too long. It needs to be renovated. Send someone from the engineering team hereter to demolish it and build a new one.¡± Keh held the right to use thend in the Zelinski manor, so he had the final say on the use of thend. Hearing that, Tyler began to reject it. He shouted harshly, ¡°How dare you! The Zelinski manor has a history of hundreds of years. You can¡¯t demolish it at will. | don¡¯t agree.¡± Tm the head of the Zelinski family now, Tyler. If you want to live a carefree life for the rest of your life, you¡¯d better not challenge me. Initially, Keh nned to let Tyler live in the Zelinski manor for the rest of his life. But Keh didn¡¯t expect Tyler to attack Cassandra. Therefore, Keh knew that he had to do something and didn¡¯t need to show mercy to Tyler. ¡°I''m your grandfather. How can you do this to me?¡± Tyler was unwilling to ept it, so he rebelled harshly. ¡°From the moment my mother died, | had no father and grandfather.¡± After saying that, Keh took Cassandra¡¯s hand and left. Keh didn¡¯t give Yannick any further orders and got into the car with Cassandra directly. The anger on Keh¡¯s face did not disappear, so he was driving a little fast, but it didn¡¯t matter to Cassandra. Keh drove the car, heading to the top of the hill. He stopped suddenly when they were halfway there. HI [e) Chapter 234 In the car, neither of them spoke. Cassandra looked at Keh and felt a little distressed when she saw Keh¡¯s angry face. ¡°Why are you still angry? I¡¯m fine.¡± Cassandra¡¯s words didn¡¯t make Keh calm down. Instead, he became angrier. He said in a tone with a note of dissatisfaction. ¡°| was waiting for you outside the airport. Why don¡¯t youe out? We can solve this problem together. Why did you go with his men? What if something bad happened to you? ¡°You know | have locked Hector and Harriet up, so aren¡¯t you afraid that Tyler will tie you up to threaten me regardless of the consequences? What should | do then?¡± Cassandra was lost for words because she indeed didn¡¯t think so much at that time. There were so many people in the airport at that time. Most importantly, there were children. Therefore, Cassandra thought she couldn''t fight with Tyler¡¯s people there. That was why Cassandra agreed to go with them at that time. ¡°| can protect myself, and | know you are outside. Therefore, | believe that you will soon find out that | am not there and then come to me.¡± Therefore, Cassandra was not scared from the beginning. ¡°Besides, you saw it when you came in. | suffered no loss, instead, | knocked all his men to the ground.¡± Cassandra patiently exined to Keh. Cassandra found that it seemed that Keh had always been either calm or cold from the day she knew him... Chatper 235 Chapter 235 Cassandra had never seen Keh losing his temper like he did now. Even when Keh faced Tyler and others, his tone didn¡¯t change too much. Cassandra thought, ¡®What is wrong with him today?¡± After hearing Cassandra¡¯s words, Keh didn¡¯t calm down and instead, got angrier. He said, ¡°He had only a few people with him today, hadn¡¯t he? He underestimated you, but it doesn¡¯t mean that there are only a few bodyguards in the Zelinski manor. You can fight with 10 or 20. But what if there are more bodyguards? Why don¡¯t you think about your own safety?¡± Cassandra was a little confused because of Keh¡¯s roar. She looked at Keh nkly and said, ¡°I didn¡¯t think much about it at that time. | just knew you would soon know that | was not there and thene to me. That¡¯s why...¡± There was a grievance in Cassandra¡¯s tone, but Cassandra didn¡¯t notice it at all. Keh, however, sensed it. He paused and finally calmed down. ¡°I... I¡¯m not ming you. I¡¯m just worried about you. | locked Hector up, so | don¡¯t know what Tyler will do to you. If anything happens to you... Keh stopped and thought, ¡®If anything happens to you, what should | do? You are my faith and my only light in life. Cassandra instantly said proudly. ¡°You saw that | knocked them to the ground easily. How could | be so weak? Don¡¯t worry. Even Yannick can¡¯t win if he fights with me.¡± Keh was stunned. Keh thought, ¡®Is this a matter of whether you can fight or not? You don¡¯t get the point at all. I''m worrying about you.¡¯ Keh found that he couldn''t be really angry with Cassandra because he hated to be mad at Cassandra. ¡°Let''s go. I''ll send you home to have a rest.¡± Keh took a deep breath and thought, ¡°There is no way to continue the conversation. I¡¯d better send her back to rest first.¡± ¡°No, just go back to the base. I¡¯m fine and don¡¯t need to rest.¡± Cassandra refused to go back, and the parade would be held tomorrow. She thought it was fine even if she went back to have a rest after the parade. ¡°Okay, let''s go back to the base/ Before they went back to the base, they had a meal. Cassandra felt that Clusia¡¯s food was more delicious. 111 Chapter 235 After returning to base, Cassandra returned to the team and participated in the training for an hour. She quickly learned all she had to do during the parade. During the break, Sofia immediately came over and said, ¡°Cassandra, where have you been these days? Why didn¡¯t | see you?¡± In the dormitory, their beds happened to be opposite each other. Sofia admired Cassandra. Therefore, she was a bit down when she woke up every day and found that Cassandra was not there. ¡°| have something to do these days, so | asked for leave,¡± Cassandra exined lightly. Suddenly, Emma from the physics ss walked up and looked at Cassandra¡® with a long face. All the people around Cassandra sensed Emma¡¯s hostility. ¡°Cassandra, it''s thest day of military training. Why are you back?¡± Emma didn¡¯t disguise her hostility this time and questioned Cassandra directly. ¡°Ie back to see if you have fulfilled what you promised in the bet,¡± said Cassandra lightly. Emma¡¯s face instantly became gloomy. Emma thought, ¡®It was all because of Cassandra. She pretended to be an ordinary girl, which led me to believe that she knew nothing about shooting. As a result, | bet more on myself in the shootingpetition and lost in the end.¡±Content provided by N?velDrama.Org. Initially, Emma thought that after Cassandra asked for leave, she didn¡¯t have to run 50ps. But Keh seemed to have hostility against her and insisted on supervising her to finish running around the court for 50ps. Besides, Keh asked Emma to finish it once. After finishing it, Emma found that her legs trembled involuntarily and it was hard for her to walk steadily. She med all that on Cassandra. It was not Cassandra¡¯s fault. She asked for leave and went abroad because she had something urgent to handle. She had almost forgotten about the bet and 50ps before she saw Emma.. Sofia knew the whole thing. She said to Cassandra excitedly. ¡°Cassandra, after you left, Mr. Zelinski kept an eye on Emma and asked Emma to run around the court for 50ps with our instructor. Yannick was strong. It didn¡¯t take long before he finished the 50ps. But Emma spent the whole afternoon running, so Yannick just watched her run for the whole afternoon.¡± The more Sofia talked about it, the angrier Emma became.. ¡°Mr. Zelinski?¡± Cassandra thought, ¡®I don¡¯t think Keh is so idle that he would even spend a whole afternoon to supervise Emma. ¡°Yeah, it¡¯s the one who often came with the chief instructor, One is called Kayden Yates and the other is called Yannick Zelinski.¡± Sofia thought Cassandra didn¡¯t know, so she quickly exined it to Cassandra. After all, Cassandra only stayed in the physical training team for a week. ¡°Sofia, that¡¯s enough out of you. We don¡¯t need you to say that, do we?¡± 0 Chapter 235 Emma was already very embarrassed. But Sofia spoke out about the humiliation Emma suffered in public. ¡°Since you started the bet back then, you should be mentally prepared to face the consequences when you lost it. It is a normal thing, isn¡¯t it?¡± said Sofia. She was not afraid of Emma at all. It was true that Emma¡¯s family was rich, but Sofia¡¯s family was not poor, so Sofia didn¡¯t need to give in to Emma. Even Cassidy stood out to speak for Cassandra. ¡°How dare youe to provoke Cassandra again. You just lost to her in the bet not long ago. Don¡¯t humiliate yourself again.¡± What Cassandra didn¡¯t know was that her 10.9 shooting score had gained her many fans. Cassidy was just one of them. Cassidy had been fond of shooting since she was a child, but she was not so skillful in shooting, so she inexplicably admired those who were good at shooting. ¡°Cassidy, it has nothing to do with you. How dare you intervene?¡± Cassidy didn¡¯t care about it at all. She walked to Cassandra, and there was no pride in her eyes anymore. Instead, she looked at Cassandra with admiration, just like Sofia. ¡°Cassandra, you are really good at shooting. Why don¡¯t you join the national team? Why are you so low-key? When can we have apetition?¡± Cassandra was a bit shy because of Cassidy¡¯s enthusiasm. She thought, ¡°What had happened?¡¯ Cassandra looked at Sofia, but Sofia burst intoughter. ¡°Cassandra, your shooting that daypletely conquered her. You¡¯ve been away these days, but she asked me about you every day.¡± Sofia thought, ¡®She takes you as her idol and thinks I have a good rtionship with Cassandra. But the truth is that | have known Cassandra for only a few days. We haven''t even followed each other on WhatsApp. Cassidy scratched her head embarrassedly and looked at Cassandra. ¡°I was a little mean before. Please don¡¯t take it to heart.¡± Cassidy apologized earnestly, and Sofia also helped her improve her rtionship with Cassandra. It was rare that they didn¡¯t quarrel with each other. ¡°Cassandra, Cassidy put all the snacks she brought on your bed and wanted to apologize to you, but...¡± Sofia couldn¡¯t helpughing when she thought about it. ¡°When the instructor checked our room, he saw all the snacks on your bed and took them away.¡± Cassandra was speechless. ¡°Sofia, you don¡¯t have to mention it at all. Let''s just pretend that it had never happened, okay?¡± Cassidy said in a hurry. Sofia, however,ughed louder. Even Cassandraughed in a low voice. ¡°| didn¡¯t take it to heart. Besides, | will ask the instructor to get the snacks backter.¡± Except for muttering a few harsh words when they first met, Cassidy didn¡¯t say anything. outrageous. She was also frightened by the unpleasant things that happened in the canteen. It was [e) 83%1 Chapter 235 said that she finished the food obediently and was afraid of being punished for cleaning up the Canteen. Emma was directly ignored by them. She was so angry that she sneered, ¡°Cassandra, you haven''t been here for training for a week. Do you know what we have learned? Tomorrow is the parade ceremony. Don¡¯t be a drag on your team and affect the evaluation of your team¡¯s performance.¡± Chatper 236 Chapter 236 Emma¡¯s words left the girls of Traditional Medicine Department in deep thought. They looked at each other, whispering. ¡°Yeah, she hasn''t been back in a week. Will she be able to keep up with us? We will be participating in the Best Squad competition tomorrow.¡± ¡°That¡¯s what | was worrying about. They were too enthusiastic, so | was embarrassed to ask.¡± ¡°What if she made us fail to be the best squad?¡± ¡°Be rational. Didn¡¯t you see her performance just now? Her gestures were pretty standard.¡± ¡°| don¡¯t care. I¡¯m going to tell the instructor about this. She might be the ck sheep.¡± Cassandra heard their whispers, and so did Emma, who chuckled smugly, ¡°I think they¡¯re right. We can¡¯t let one ck sheep harm us all. Maybe we¡¯d better tell the instructor about her absence. She doesn¡¯t deserve to be in our squad or get a training certification.¡±Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. The Summer camp ounted for two credits. In other words, Cassandra would have to take military training again next year if she didn¡¯t get a certificate. ¡°Emma, | don¡¯t remember offending you. So why are you always picking on me? Do you consider me your imaginary enemy?¡± Cassandra looked at Emma and said with ill. Emma snorted coldly, ¡°Who do you think you are?¡± Cassandra continued quickly. ¡°So what are you doing now? You deliberately embarrassed me during the shooting, and when you lost, you said | cheated. Now I¡¯m back and you''re picking on me again. You think I¡¯m easy to bully just because | ignored you?¡± Cassandra really didn¡¯t understand why Emma was doing this.. ¡°That¡¯s nonsense. Am | not telling the truth?¡± Emma raged. Cassandra sneered, ¡°Let¡¯s assume you''re telling the truth, does this concern you? If I¡¯m not doing well enough, your squad has a better chance of beating us, doesn¡¯t it? Why would youe to my squad and give my teammates advice?¡± Hearing Cassandra¡¯s words, the members of the traditional medicine practitioner squad looked at Emma unanimously. Cassandra did have a point there. Emma retorted weakly, ¡°You...! just don¡¯t want to see you ruin their efforts. You are so shameless.¡± Emma left angrily, but she didn¡¯t dare to say anything more. Soon, they gathered to continue training. The instructor this time was even stricter than the one just now. 0 Chapter 236 The instructor shouted. ¡°Second tost in the fourth row! Didn¡¯t you have your lunch? Raise your hand!¡± ¡°Fifth in the second row! Where are you peeking? Look straight ahead!¡± ¡°Third from the bottom of the second row! Can¡¯t you tell left from right? You''re destroying the whole squad!¡± ¡°Fourth in the third row! Stride forward! Are you five years old?¡± The instructor criticized the performance of many girls, but Cassandra was not one of them. ¡°Look at you guys! You''ve been training for half a month, but your movements are still ridiculous! Keep it up!¡± He was about to say that the girls were nowhere near as good as Cassandra, who only trained for a week, but in the end, he didn¡¯t say that in case it caused Emery any unnecessary trouble. ¡°Let''s finish our training early so you can be dismissed early, Get yourselves dressed up, girls. We''re going to have a friendship night tonight and there will be performances. Have fun tonight!¡± The instructor''s words instantly revitalized the girls and they trained even harder. Finally, the instructor announced the dismissal after the girls disyed an excellent performance. It was a night of friendship, so the canteen didn¡¯t serve food. Instead, the students would be preparing all the food themselves tonight, such as barbecue and Clusian food. After getting changed, Cassandra went to Keh, who was in his office working. Seeing Cassandra, Keh put down what he was doing and asked, ¡°Cass, what brings you over?¡± Cassandra answered in a light voice, ¡°I want to ask you something.¡± ¡°What?¡± said Keh in wonder. Luckily, there were only Keh, Yannick, and Kayden in the office. ¡°Well... When | asked for leave, my roommate put some snacks on my bed. It seems that they were confiscated by you. Can you give them back to me?¡± Cassandra said sincerely. Anyway, those were given to Cassandra by her roommate to apologize to her, so she wanted to keep them. Keh didn¡¯t say anything for a moment. Yannick was at a loss for words. Suddenly, Kayden burst outughing, which embarrassed Cassandra a bit. Kayden remarked apologetically, ¡°Sorry, | didn¡¯t mean to. | did confiscate some snacks that were ced on an empty bed earlier. | know where they are.¡± Keh nced at Kayden as if urging him to take them out. Chapter 236 Kayden hurriedly took out a bag of snacks from a cab and said, ¡°Here they are.¡± Cassandra held it in her hands and said to Keh, ¡°Then I''ll take them away. Thank Keh put down hisptop and said calmly. ¡°You can¡¯t just take them away. you. Cassandra turned to look at him nkly and murmured, ¡°Why? They are mine. Shouldn''t | take them away?¡± Yannick exined. ¡°Ms. Yates, ording to the rules, you can¡¯t take what you¡¯ve been confiscated until tomorrow. So... Cassandra interrupted. ¡°So why can¡¯t | take them away now? It¡¯s friendship night tonight! They¡¯ll be very useful to me for making friends. Besides, Mr. Yates gave them to me. Are you going to take them away from me?¡± Instead of mentioning Mr. Zelinski, she only mentioned Mr. Yates. Apparently, she trusted Kayden more. Keh remained silent. But in fact, he wondered, ¡®Why is Cass so angry? ¡®| didn¡¯t say she couldn''t take them away! Finally, Keh sighed, ¡°Okay, just take them, but keep a low profile. Yannick, give Cass back that backpack.¡± Only then did Cassandra show a satisfied smile, but Yannickined in his mind, ¡®Oh, boring. | thought Mr. Zelinski would stick to his principles. He caved when Ms. Yates said nothing! Cassandra left with her backpack. In the office, Kayden asked, ¡®Isn¡¯t the Summer camp aimed at selecting some people for wilderness survival? Tomorrow is thest day, and yet nothing has been done?¡± Keh nced at him and said, ¡°Have you picked out enough suitable candidates in thest half month?¡± Kayden shook his head immediately. To be honest, except for Cassandra, none of the others reached the standard on their physicals. Besides, it could be said that the wilderness survival training was organized for Cassandra. Since Cassandra took a week off, the training was canceled. If she didn¡¯t ask for a leave, then they might find two dozen teammates for her to join in the wilderness survival training. ¡°Since you didn¡¯t, why are we hosting this event?¡± Keh went on. Keh didn¡¯t look at him again but continued to work on hisptop.. Kayden was speechless. Chatper 237 Chapter 237 As evening approached, the Friendship Night began. The open space at the training base was filled with barbecue grills. It was thest night of training so instructors and students gathered to chat and y games.Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. As Cassandra dumped out all the snacks in her bag, Cassidy''s eyes widened and she eximed, ¡°Wow! Cassandra, how did you get them back? | asked Mr. Zelinski for them a couple of times, but it didn¡¯t work.¡± Thinking of this, Cassidy was speechless at Keh¡¯s aloofness. ¡°| don¡¯t know. Maybe it¡¯s because the training will end tomorrow,¡± Cassandra said lightly. Cassidy unwrapped a bag of snacks and said eagerly, ¡°Cassandra, try this chocte cookie. It¡¯s really good!¡± Then she handed the bag to Cassandra. Cassandra handed the bag of snacks to the others and said, ¡°Try it, guys. | have plenty of snacks left.¡± She took a bite of the biscuit handed by Cassidy, who was also relieved at this moment. To Cassidy, it was a sign that Cassandra had forgiven her. Seeing Cassandra finish the snacks, Sofia dragged her and said, ¡°Cassandra, let¡¯s go to the barbecue.¡± Then the three of them gathered around a grill. The activities at friendship night were rich and fun, but when Sofia saw the raw ingredients, she froze. She might know which piece of store had the best barbecue, but she didn¡¯t know how to grill it. Sofia turned at Cassidy, but she stepped back and called out, ¡°I can¡¯t do it! Don¡¯t look at me!¡± kat She sighed, ¡°I''ll do it. Just give me what you want to eat. I''ll do the grilling. After that, Cassandra found a camping chair and sat down to start grilling. Cassandra felt speechless. Cassandra wasn¡¯t nning to barbecue originally, but she did get hungry. Watching the way Cassandra grilled skillfully made Sofia¡¯s mouth water. Not long after, she eximed as she smelled the food and heard the sizzling sound, ¡°Wow! Cassandra, you are incredible!¡± Suddenly, it urred to Sofia that Cassandra once grilled meat on a reality show. It smelled so good. [e) Chapter 237 And Sofia felt so happy. Even the other squads¡¯ students came over after smelling the scent. No one could resist the mouth-watering smell of the grilled meat as it sizzled. Soon Cassandra grilled several skewers of pork and shrimp. After putting a shrimp and a piece of meat on her te, she left the rest for Cassidy and her ssmates. After a while, Keh, Yannick, and Kayden came over. They''d been wandering around the open field for a while, but the meat the others grilled tasted mediocre. Seeing Cassandra surrounded by students, Keh came over curiously. Someone greeted, ¡°Mr. Zelinski.¡± Cassidy and the other girls greeted them as well. Yannick began, ¡°It smells good.¡± Yannick hoped Cassandra got the hint. Cassandra did get what Yannick meant. She held up the food in her hand and said, ¡°I just finished grilling these. Would you guys like to try some, Mr. Zelinski?¡± While Cassandra and Kayden were like the most familiar strangers to each other right now, she didn¡¯t want everyone to know that No one was right or wrong about what happened before. However, that didn¡¯t mean Cassandra would call out Kayden¡¯s name. Yannick smiled and took the barbecue. He gave half to Keh and the other half to Kayden. Indeed, they tasted so good, and no wonder Keh ate a lot of meat Cassandra grilled on the reality show. Seeing this, Emma was furious. Emma did not understand or ept that Cassandra was appreciated by the instructors. While Cassandra was not around, Emma felt that Keh and Kayden cared about her and noticed how hard she worked. Keh even talked to Emma a couple of times, and he didn¡¯t say that to anyone else. It made Emma feel that she was special to Keh. Keh was wearing a half-mask, but the unmasked half of his face was very handsome. In S83% tH Chapter 237 addition, he was themanding officer. Emma thought she was in love with him. However, it was all in her head. In fact, Kayden was talking to her because he knew she was always against Cassandra. As for Keh, he spoke to Emma because Emma¡¯s squad happened to be next to him when he went to inspect the traditional medicine practitioner squad, and Emma behaved particrly bad. It was the showtime for Friendship Night next, and anyone who wanted to perform could go onto the stage. Keh and the other two then sat next to Cassandra. Yannick also helped to grill meat and watched the show while eating. Obviously, Emma would never miss such an opportunity to show herself. Being the first to go on stage, she sang and danced, earning rapturous apuse. Emma enjoyed the attention and felt she would have been more popr without Cassandra. When she finished her dance, everyone was up in arms and wanted an encore. With a sweet smile on her face, Emma ignored their chants but didn¡¯t get off the stage. She then picked up the microphone and said, Td like to invite one of my ssmates to join me for a dance. What do you guys think?¡± ¡°Yes!¡± ¡°Choose me please!¡± ncing over everyone else, Emma looked to Cassandra and continued, ¡°Cassandra, how about you and | dance together? It¡¯s Friendship Night, so let''s have fun. What do you say?¡± Cassandra frowned at Emma¡¯s words and she refused, ¡°I don¡¯t know how to dance. Emma, pick someone else.¡± ¡°That would be boring. This isn¡¯t apetition and | just want to invite you to have fun with me. Come on!¡± Emma insisted. She even walked towards Cassandra tugging her in the direction of the stage. ¡°So what kind of dance it is?¡± Cassandra smiled coldly. Emma answered briskly, ¡°How about jazz dance? You dance as a girl and I¡¯ll dance as a boy! Hearing Emma¡¯s words, the audience began to cheer. Unexpectedly, Yannick called out, ¡°We don¡¯t want to see two girls dance. We want to see a boy and at girl dance!¡± Emma said calmly, ¡°Mr. Zelinski, | don¡¯t think there will be a boy volunteer.¡± Emma didn¡¯t think Cassandra could dance. She just wanted to embarrass her. [e) Chapter 237 Yannick looked around at the students and realized no one had raised their He shoved Keh out and shouted, ¡°But Mr. Zelinski can dance! Do you want to see Me Zelinski dance?¡± ¡°Yes!¡± ¡°Dance for us!¡± ¡°Mr. Zelinski,e on!¡± Everyone got more enthusiastic, while Keh¡¯s face grimaced. Yannick continued, ¡°Emma, you can go down now, Let Mr. Zelinski and Cassandra do a dance for us!¡± Emma¡¯s face turned cold as she didn¡¯t expect Yannick to speak for Cassandra. She could only curse Cassandra as a bitch in her mind with a fake smile on her face. Chatper 238 Chapter 238 ¡°Mr. Zelinski,e on!¡± As the students were watching them expectantly, Keh couldn¡¯t get mad at Yannick on the spot. Suddenly someone shouted, ¡°Emma,e down quickly. We wanna see Mr. Zelinski and Cassandra dance!¡± With that, the boys began to boo Emma. They wanted her to leave Cassandra and Keh alone on stage. But considering the tender and outgoing persona she maintained, Emma had no choice but to leave the stage. Emma smiled drily, ¡°l guess everyone is more interested in seeing Mr. Zelinski dance than me. Well, then I''ll leave the stage to him. While unable to embarrass Cassandra now, Emma was sure Cassandra wouldn''t always be so lucky. Finally, the sound system began ying jazz dance music. As soon as the intro to the music started, both Cassandra and Keh began to move their bodies. Truth be told, they were both curious about each other''s dance skills. Jazz was a passionate dance, which was very different from the elegant ssical ballet and the soft modern dance. It was pleasant, vibrant, and free. While the improvisational style of jazz dance had been reced by a style that was both free and orderly, Keh and Cassandra¡¯s dance was wilder and more inspiring. As soon as the dance was over, both of them sweated. They were attracted to each other in the dance and integrated with each other as if their souls had been intertwined. ¡°Wow!¡± ¡°Woo-hoo!¡± The apuse went on for a long time. ¡°That was awesome!¡± ¡°Perfect!¡± ¡°One more dance!¡± The more they cheered, the more it proved that Cassandra was a good dancer, and the better she danced, the angrier Emma got. Amidst the thunderous apuse and cheers Emma was expressionless and silent. All she could think of was that Cassandra defeated her once again. Chapter 238 Keh was actually excited because he didn¡¯t expect Cassandra to dance that well, and he thought they were a perfect pair. However, no matter how excited he was in his heart, he still kept a calm look on his face. He walked off the stage and whispered as he passed Yannick, ¡°I¡¯m gonna kill you.¡± Yannick was at a loss for words. He really thought Keh enjoyed the dance he just did. Yannick began to think that maybe he could take a long vacation or just quit. He¡¯d already made enough money for the rest of his life anyway. Otherwise, when Keh settled ounts with him, it might not be as simple as being sent to Ounca or on an extreme rescue mission. The friendship night for the Summer campsted until eleven o¡¯clock at night The next morning, the instructors each lead the squads for their final performances, with Keh sitting in the center of the reviewing stand, and the principal and vice principal of Juset University sitting on either side of him. By the time the performance and scoring sessions for the three squads were over, it was around 1 1. pm. After lunch, the students were organized to leave the base and return to campus. The instructors came to see them off. Suddenly, Emma walked towards Keh with a shy face and a hint of determination in her eyes. Emma must seize this opportunity. By the time she left the base, she might never get to know his name. She swore that she would take anyone who was attracted to Cassandra. Besides, she did have a bit of a crush on Keh, a mysterious, powerful, and handsome man. Seeing Emma walking towards him, Keh frowned and said to Yannick, ¡°Let her go.¡± Yannick whispered, ¡°Commander Zelinski, | can¡¯t. Maybe she just came to say farewell to you.¡± Yannick was also very helpless. He thought, | can¡¯t just let her go. It¡¯s rude!" Emma began, ¡°Mr. Zelinski, | have something to tell you.¡± With that, Emma nced over af Yannick and Kayden as if imploring them to leave. ¡°Go ahead,¡± Keh said coldly. ¡°May | ask the two instructors... Emma hesitated. Keh interrupted, ¡°No. They¡¯re myrades and friends. Just say what you are gonna say.¡± Emma felt a little ufortable, but thinking that the two instructors could be her witnesses if [e) 83% Chapter 239 Keh epted her confession, she didn¡¯t insist on letting them go. Emma couldn''t wait to win a big name that Keh, themanding officer, epted her confession. Emma said out loud, ¡°Mr. Zelinski, | have a crush on you. Would you be my boyfriend?¡± She looked at Keh firmly and confidently as if she was expecting his answer. Keh¡¯s eyes were slightly cold and there was a serious look on his face. He snapped, ¡°Ms. Houston, it¡¯s not funny. If you are looking for a special memory of your Summer camp, there are other instructors you can turn to. | assure you they are all single. But me? | refuse.¡± However, Emma didn¡¯t want other instructors. She blurted out, ¡°But | like you. It has nothing to do with who you are, and I¡¯m not doing this to seek attention. | simply have a crush on you. Can''t you just agree to be my boyfriend?¡± Emma kept looking at Keh, and she raised her voice unconsciously. The students around who were about to get on the buses stopped and turned to watch the farce. And Cassandra happened to hear this and frowned. Sofia eximed, ¡°Is Emma crazy? She¡¯s telling Mr. Zelinski that she likes him?¡± Sofia didn¡¯t notice the change in Cassandra''s expression at all and went on, ¡°Well, | admit Mr. Zelinski is hot even if he wears a mask. Besides, he¡¯s themanding officer! No wonder Emma¡¯s falling in love with him.¡± Cassidy was also curious about what was going on. She dragged Sofia and said eagerly, ¡°Let''s go have a look.¡± When she left, she didn¡¯t forget to pull Cassandra. As they approached, they heard Keh say, ¡°There are a lot of people who like me. Am | supposed to say yes to all of them? I''m not the right one for you. My answer will still be no.¡± Considering Emma was young and vulnerable, Keh wasn¡¯t very mean to her. However, he still got nervous when he found Cassandra in the crowd. Keh hoped that Cassandra wouldn¡¯t think too much.ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org . He had had a venue prepared for him so that he could tell Cassandra of his love for her. Chatper 239 Chapter 239 ¡°Are you rejecting me?¡± Emina said with resentment and her face turned gloomy.. ¡°Isn''t it obvious enough?¡± Keh snapped as he was also a little angry. Now he thought Emma was not only young and vulnerable but stupid. ¡°Do you realize who | am? Do you know what the consequences will be if you reject me?¡± Emma said arrogantly without the confidence she had just shown. There were a lot ofmanding officers in Drieso, and Emma¡¯s grandfather used to be one of the earliest groups of commanding officers, who was quite remarkable. In Emma¡¯s memory, her grandfather was omnipotent and everyone respected him. So she took it for granted that Keh would no longer be amanding officer as soon as she told her grandfather that he had rejected her. However, what Emma didn¡¯t know was that the Falcon Special Operations Force that her grandfather always talked about was the one Keh was in, and themanding officer that her grandfather marveled over was the one she confessed to. Also, Emma¡¯s grandfather marveled at Keh¡¯s talent many times and thought Keh would be better than he was. However, out of rage, Emma forgot all that her grandfather had said about Keh. Keh snapped with an impatient look on his face. ¡°My answer is no even if you live in the presidential residence.¡± Yannick thought Emma was really stubborn. Meanwhile, Emma realized that Keh was looking at the crowd instead of at her. When Emma followed Keh¡¯s gaze, she saw Cassandra, the person she hated the most right now. Suddenly, Emma approached Keh and whispered in his ear, ¡°Mr. Zelinski, didn¡¯t you turn me down because you had your eye on Cassandra? What a shame. She doesn¡¯t like you.¡± When Keh came to his senses, he pushed Emma to the ground. Keh raged, ¡°I thought you should be more dignified and wiser since you are a student of Juset University! | will report this to your dean truthfully and demand an apology from you.¡± Cassandra felt strange when she saw Emma approaching Keh just now. She became so angry that she wanted to p Emma¡¯s nasty face. There was confusion in her beautiful eyes. She looked at Keh nkly and left without looking back. Keh was a little flustered as he felt Cassandra had misunderstood him. THE Chapter 239 Seeing that something was wrong, Yannick hurriedly said, ¡®Get on the bus right now.¡± Only then did the other instructors react and drive all the students around them away. When Sofia and Cassidy were about to leave with Cassandra, they were suddenly stopped by Yannick, who called out, ¡°Please wait a moment.¡± Cassidy turned around and looked at Yannick in wonder. Yannick said straightforwardly. ¡°Yes, you three. ¡°| have something to tell you.¡± Yannick pointed at Sofia and Cassidy, saying in a calm voice, ¡°You twoe with me.¡± Before Yannick left, he dragged Kayden away. As for Emma, who was pushed to the ground by Keh, he had someone take her onto the bus. Right now, right here, there was only Cassandra and Keh. Keh took the initiative to step forward and said gently. ¡°Cass, what''s wrong? Are you angry?¡± If Cassandra was angry, Keh wanted to know why. He was a little excited and even looking forward to her answer. I''m not angry. Mr. Zelinski, anything else?¡± Cassandra said dryly.Content provided by N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Cass, don¡¯t get me wrong. | don¡¯t know why she said those things to me. | have directly refused,¡± Keh exined nervously. He''d never been more nervous than he was now. He hadn''t even been this nervous and upset the first time he¡¯d shot or the first time he''d killed a man. ¡°| didn¡¯t get you wrong. Mr. Zelinski, | thought you said you had a lot of girls after you. Then you''re really something,¡± Cassandra said in a dramatic voice as if she was going to throw up. Even Cassandra herself didn¡¯t understand why she was talking like that. It felt like something she cherished was suddenly taken away from her. Keh murmured, ¡°Cass, | don¡¯t have any other girls around except you.¡± Keh was a little flustered at first when Cassandra spoke like that. But after realizing that Cassandra was a little jealous, Keh felt delighted and couldn¡¯t help but chuckle. Seeing his smile, Cassandra couldn¡¯t hold back her anger. ¡°Mr. Zelinski, it¡¯s none of my business how many girls you have, so you don¡¯t have to tell me that,¡± Cassandra snorted and was about to leave as she didn¡¯t want to be here or see Keh¡¯s face right now. Keh hurriedly stopped her and said in a pleasant tone, ¡°Cass, do you remember that before you 83% Chapter 239 went abroad. | told you that | had something to tell you when you came back?¡± With a serious look on her face, Cassandra said impatiently, ¡°I don¡¯t wanna hear it now.¡± Cassandra felt that he was going to say something unpleasant again. ¡°No, you have to let me finish. Keh pulled Cassandra back and said sincerely. Keh had no doubt that Cassandra woulde home with a deeper misunderstanding of him and that she might even reject his visit. Cassandra stood there motionless without looking at Keh, and Keh didn¡¯t get angry. He quietly walked over to Cassandra and continued gently, ¡°Cass, I¡¯ve been thinking about telling you about this, but | haven¡¯t gotten rid of the Zelinski family yet, and I¡¯m afraid that they''re going to investigate you and hurt you because of me, so | haven''t done that. ¡°So... | was going to tell you how | felt about you as soon as | got rid of the Zelinski family, but you were out of the country on an emergency. | wanted to give you a surprise when you came back...¡± But then Emma showed up and made that farce.¡± Consequently, Cassandra misunderstood Keh, which made him feel awful. Keh was as nervous as a teenager in love for the first time when he exined to Cassandra. Only then did Cassandra look up at him and say coldly, ¡°What are you going to say to me?¡± Keh took a deep breath as if mustering up courage and said firmly, ¡°Cassandra, | love you, and I¡¯ve loved you for years. So.... ¡°So, will you be my girlfriend?¡± Cassandra was stunned. She didn¡¯t expect Keh to like her and she was a little tense, but for some reason, she felt joy at the same time. ¡°You... Are you... Are you sure?¡± Cassandra stammered. Keh nodded and stressed, ¡°Yes. So, will you?¡± He thought uneasily. ¡°Will you be my girlfriend? ¡°Will you spend the rest of your life with me? ¡®Will you be my closestpanion?* great For a moment, Cassandra didn¡¯t know how to react. If this happened before, she probably would have shooed the man in front of her away and told him not to have any illusions. But now... She didn¡¯t want po, and she was a little reluctant to let him leave. Chatper 240 Chapter 240 Cassandra instantly forgot about Emma and all her anger seemed to dissipate. She just looked at. Keh dumbfounded and murmured, ¡°I... | don¡¯t know.¡± Cassandra felt giddy as if she were stepping on cotton. Keh asked in a whisper, ¡°Do you hate me?¡± Cassandra shook her head. Keh continued, ¡°Do you repel my presence?¡± Cassandra still shook her head. Keh smiled, ¡°Then... Do you hate it when | hold your hand?¡± Cassandra was stunned for a few seconds before she shook her head. She didn¡¯t hate it when Keh held her hand, and if it had been Jeremiah doing it, she would have already shoved him off. ¡°So would you be upset if you saw another girl approaching me?¡± Keh asked nervously, gazing at Cassandra. Cassandra fell silent. She didn¡¯t say a word or nod or shake her head. She just pondered on his words. If a girl approached Keh and Keh smiled at her, Cassandra would probably never want to see Keh again. She hated just the thought of him epting someone else¡¯s confession. Cassandra was stunned by her subconscious thoughts. Yet, she followed her heart. ¡°Then | want you and her to disappear forever.¡± Keh was very satisfied with Cassandra''s reaction. He felt that his life had beenpleted. ¡°Cass, I''ll give you some time. You can think about it clearly, but don¡¯t make me wait too long, okay?¡± Keh said softly, taking Cassandra in his arms and gently stroking her hair. Cassandra curled up in his arms without struggling. ¡°Okay,¡± she answered in a whisper.ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org . As soon as they finished their conversation, Cassidy and Sofia came back with puzzled expressions. They seemed to beining about what Mr. Zelinski had said to them. ¡°Cassandra, let''s go. Time to get on the bus,¡± Sofia reminded. ¡°Coming,¡± called out Cassandra. Ill Chapter 210 Cassandra¡¯s cheeks were still flushed as she walked towards them. ¡°Cassandra, what did Mr. Zelinski say to you? The other Mr. Zelinski said a bunch of nonsense to us. He was like a psychopath! He¡¯s no longer hot to mel¡± Cassidy muttered. Cassidy held Cassandra¡¯s arms and started toin. Instead of answering Cassidy¡¯s question, Cassandra asked, ¡°What did he say?¡± Cassidy called out, ¡°He told Sofia and me to study hard. And he said it¡¯s a long road to bing a great traditional medicine practitioner, so we have to keep working hard...¡± It was all nonsense. He seemed to have said a lot, but also, he seemed to have said nothing. Cassandra was speechless. It sounded like Yannick really didn¡¯t know what to say. ¡°Just ignore him. He¡¯s probably just in a bad mood and wants to talk to someone,¡± Sofia didn¡¯t take it to heart and said lightly. ¡°She''s right. Let¡¯s sit in the back. I¡¯m afraid there are only seats left in the back row,¡± Cassandra agreed. When Cassandra returned to Springmount Townhouse she was still dizzy and all she could think about were Keh¡¯s words. Cassandra never thought about what love was. She didn¡¯t know, and nobody told her. In herst life, she thought she would feel her family¡¯s love when she returned to the Yates family, but she didn¡¯t. She didn¡¯t know how to love, nor did she get love. Everyone knew Keh¡¯s name. Yulissa once dreamed of bing Keh¡¯s wife, and she kept telling Cassandra that Cassandra was not good enough for Keh. In the end, Cassandra not longer followed Keh¡¯s news... Hugo called the servants to clean up the house because today was the day Cassandra finished her Summer camp, and he wanted to prepare a big meal for Cassandra. ¡°Ms. Yates, | made some food for you. Would you like to have some?¡± asked Hugo. It was just after 3:00 p.m., and Hugo thought that Cassandra hade back without eating lunch. However, Cassandra was not in the mood to eat at all. She declined, ¡°Hugo, I¡¯m not hungry. Put the dishes in the fridge.¡± Cassandra was getting a little annoyed with Keh because he disturbed her thoughts so easily. ¡°Ms. Yates, did something happen?¡® asked Hugo worriedly. 111 [e) Chapter 210 ¡°Yep, answered Cassandra nonchntly. ¡°Ms. Yates, would you mind telling me about it? Maybe | can help you,¡± Hugo said sincerely. Cassandra had been frowning as if she had encountered something tricky since she came back today. Cassandra looked at Hugo, sat down, and asked, ¡°What''s it like to love someone?¡± Hugo smiled, ¡°What kind of love? Is it love between lovers, or family, or friends?¡± Apparently, Hugo surmised that someone had confessed to Cassandra, and that was why Cassandra became distracted. ¡°Well, what''s the difference?¡± Cassandra asked confused. Cassandra nodded and said in a tender voice, ¡°Yes, they are different. The love between couples is about hormones. It makes you excited to see the person you love, look forward to your next meeting after you''re apart, and look forward to sharing everything. You may envision your future together, or you may just enjoy your time together and feel that parting will nevere. Love between couples is the desire to spend every minute together so much that they want to start a new family. ¡°As for love between family members... Ms. Yates, it¡¯s my love for you and Jeremiah. Family members care for and listen to each other. Family will always respect your wishes and will always be on your side. ¡°And as for the love between friend say thank you to each other but you are always there for think about your rtionship with Jeremiah. He¡¯s not only your family but also your friend. You each other and share happy memories. You love being with him, but you wouldn¡¯t want to form at family with him.¡± Hugo¡¯s answer was sincere and practical, and Cassandra seemed to feel that she understood what love was. In the evening, Keh went back to the next house. He held flowers and rang the doorbell. Cassandra opened the door expressionlessly, and she was not interested in the flowers. Keh was a little surprised. When he left in the afternoon, Cassandra was not like this! He put the flowers aside, followed Cassandra, and asked cautiously, ¡°Cass, are you... Are you angry?¡± ¡°No, | just want to ask you something,¡± Cassandra snapped as she looked at Keh seriously. ¡°Go ahead. I''ll tell you everything, Keh answered drily. Cassandra began, ¡°Why do you love me? In other words, what do you love about me? How can | be sure you''re not just looking to have a fling?¡± Keh answered genuinely, ¡°Cass, I¡¯m attracted to you. When I met you, you were 10 years old. After Blossom fell sick and you saved Jeremiah, you saved me from being killed by my stepmother. | spent over a month with you and Jeremiah at Roond Vige. ¡°At that time, | swore that | would protect you for the rest of my life. | rushed back to this country Chapter 240 as soon as | learned that you were having a hard time back at the Yates residence, but you were different than before. You were no longer as diffident and submissive as the materials said you were. On the contrary, you became stronger. | was in deep trouble at that time, so | thought maybe I''d better confess to you after | got rid of the Zelinski family. ¡°Cass, you''re the only person | want to protect for the rest of my life. It¡¯s not because you saved me when | was a kid. You were like a beam of light in my most desperate time.¡± Chapter 241 Chapter 241 Cassandra was deeply moved. If Keh knew her and Jeremiah when she was 10 years old and they spent a month together, then why didn¡¯t she know? Since Keh mentioned Jeremiah, he probably wasn¡¯t lying. Cassandra recalled a dream she once had where a man told her he would take her away, but as she grew up, she forgot the dream gradually. She seemed to know what love was. Cassandra wasn¡¯t disgusted to hear Keh¡¯s confession. On the contrary, she was nervous and bewildered. ording to Hugo, if Cassandra loved Keh, she wouldn¡¯t want to run away or drive him away when he said he loved her. She¡¯d get a little excited as if there were butterflies in her stomach. Now, Cassandra was pretty much sure she didn¡¯t want Keh to leave. Keh went on, ¡°Cass, I may not be a perfect boyfriend and I may even have a lot of little problems, but I will change all the things you don¡¯t like about me for you. If you¡¯re worried that I will stop loving you in the future, I¡¯ll transfer all the property in my name to yours right now. At that time, you can even have your friends kill me.¡± Keh thought firmly, ¡®Cass, I will never betray you. Cassandra looked over at Keh, his eyes were so tender and lucid as if he could only see her. Cassandra was silent for so long that Keh thought she was going to reject him. Keh withdrew his gaze in frustration and thought that maybe this wasn¡¯t the right time to tell Cassandra about this. ¡°Are you sure you won¡¯t cheat on me?¡± Cassandra asked suddenly and cautiously, which softened. Keh¡¯s heart. ¡°Never and ever, Keh answered firmly. Cassandra suddenly grinned. She decided to give it a try, and even if he cheated on her one day, she was capable of getting rid of him and making him lose everything he had. After all, she was at the top of the hacker list. ¡°Well¡­ Mr. Zelinski, I¡¯ll be your girlfriend,¡± Cassandra reached out her right hand and smiled. Keh was shocked. He looked at Cassandra in disbelief and blurted out, ¡°Cass, you¡­ You 1/4 This is property ? of N?velDrama.Org. 11:39 Fri, 8 Mar R BU. Chapter 241 agreed?¡± Cassandra snorted, ¡°Well, can I go back on my word?¡± If he said yes, it was okay. Anyway, she didn¡¯t lose anything. When Cassandra was about to withdraw her hand, Keh held it. She could clearly feel his hand trembling. ¡°You can¡¯t go back on your word. Since you agreed, you are my girlfriend now,¡± Keh called out with excitement. This was the happiest day he had ever had. Cassandra muttered, ¡°Don¡¯t get overjoyed. Maybe someday I¡¯ll¡­¡± Keh immediately interrupted, ¡°That¡¯s not possible. We will belong to each other only for the rest of our lives.¡± Cassandra turned to look hesitantly at Keh and murmured, ¡°Have you been in a rtionship before? You¡¯re really good at saying words of love.¡± If Cassandra didn¡¯t mention this, maybe Keh wouldn¡¯t care about what he just said. But since Cassandra said that, his face suddenly blushed and he said in a low voice, ¡°I didn¡¯t. I just fell in love with you, and it¡¯s from my heart.¡± After saying that, Keh felt his face even hotter. Keh held Cassandra¡¯s hand tightly. Their hands were sweaty, but neither of them wanted to let go. Finally, Cassandra couldn¡¯t stand the tacky feeling in her hand anymore, struggled to break free of Keh¡¯s grip, and snorted, ¡°It¡¯s sweaty. Aren¡¯t you feeling ufortable?¡± Another reason was that she wasn¡¯t used to being held by others like this. Keh smiled with affection in his eyes. He pulled a tissue from the coffee table and gently wiped the sweat from her palms. ¡°Sorry. I was so happy that I didn¡¯t realize it,¡± Keh said with a shy smile on her face. Cassandra said lightly, ¡°Well, the school season ising up, so I¡¯m afraid we won¡¯t have much time to see each other. See youter on weekends?¡± Keh was shocked. He thought, ¡°But you¡¯re ine! Why would you need to go to college?¡± However, he answered calmly. ¡°It¡¯s okay. I¡¯ll pick you up every Friday and you can always call me if you need me.¡± Keh¡¯s answer satisfied Cassandra and made her feel much better. So Cassandra nodded and smiled, ¡°Good.¡± 111 O 11:39 Fri, 8 Mar RB. Chapter 241 They stayed in the house for a while. It was a littlete, so Cassandra walked Keh to the door. As Keh went out the door, he saw Yannick standing outside with a suggestive smile on his face. When he saw Keh and Cassandraing out hand in hand, he knew it was done. ¡°Congrattions, Mr. Zelinski!¡± called out Yannick Yannick¡¯s expression was ttering. Cassandra couldn¡¯t help butin, ¡°Is everyone around you like this?¡± Cassandra recalled what Sofia and Cassidy had said that afternoon. Cassandra thought confused, ¡®Why would Yannick say those things to Sofia and Cassidy? ¡°Wait! He took them away because Kenne had something to say to me? ¡®So Yannick just made up an excuse to help Kenne. Cassandra thought she had found the truth: Keh chuckled and joked, ¡°I have no choice. He wouldn¡¯t leave me after I saved him.¡± Yannick was a little embarrassed to hear this. Cassandra eximed, ¡°So did Jeremiah! I saved him from the dead bodies, and he wouldn¡¯t leave me after he was cured.¡± Jeremiah, far away in Spaunia, sneezed for no reason. He thought in wonder, ¡°What¡¯s going on? Did ine miss me? Yeah, it must be!¡¯ ¡°He won¡¯t have time to pester vou once he joins the Falcon Special Operations Force,¡± said Keh nonchntly, which made Yannick silently wish Jeremiah good luck in his mind. It was awful even to think about it. Cassandra sighed, ¡°Don¡¯t torture him. Actually, he always wanted to be a soldier, but he¡¯s used to a free life. He¡¯s the only one who¡¯s been by my side since Blossom passed away, so just let him do the tech stuff.¡± In her previous life, she was trapped in the Yates family because of her stubbornness, and she caused his hands to be disabled, which was a mistake she could not fix for the rest of her life. So, in this life, Cassandra let Jeremiah do whatever he wanted, including joining the Falcon Special Operations Force. Keh agreed, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, He is your family, and I will not train him based on the standard of training Yannick.¡± ÈÕ -39 Fri, 8 Mar Chapter 241 81% While Keh was a little ufortable and jealous of the male friends Cassandra had around her, he was also grateful that Jeremiah had been there for Cassandra during the eight years he was away, and he knew that Cassandra considered Jeremiah as family. Cassandra nodded and felt relieved. Yannick was speechless. However, his eyes suddenly lit up and he said to Keh, ¡°Mr. Zelinski, the surprise at the vi is ready. Won¡¯t you show it to Ms. Yates? Óã Chapter 242 Chapter 242 Cassandra was a little curious to see what the surprise would be, so she looked at Keh with expectant eyes. Keh¡¯s heart skipped a beat in an instant. He had never seen Cassandra so sweet, lively, and cheerful. So he didn¡¯t care that the surprise was now a little awkward for him. ¡°Let''s go. I''ll take you there, but you can¡¯tugh at me,¡± Keh said hesitantly. Cassandra agreed, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, | won''t.¡± When they returned to Keh¡¯s vi, the living room was decorated with wless white scenery and two-color balloons. It must have taken a lot of people a lot of time to prepare this set. Cassandra loved the pure white scene, but she would have been happier if there wasn¡¯t that huge heart shape surrounded by pink candles in the middle of the living room. There were also many hydrogen balloons, each of which had streamers hung underneath and seemed to have words on them. [Cass, it¡¯s been eight years. It¡¯s so good to see you again.] [Sorry, | amte. I''ve missed you for eight years, let me make up for it with my next eighty years, okay?] [I love you a little more every day, but I¡¯m too shy to tell you for fear you''ll be scared off by me.] [Cass, will you love me?] Keh wrote down every word he wanted to say to Cassandra. Before that, he had thrown away many notes that weren''t good enough. As a result, Cassandra was touched, and she hadn''t realized until then that she wasn¡¯t as aloof as she thought she was.Content provided by N?velDrama.Org. She was just so disappointed in the Yates family. It was only then did she believe she deserved to be loved. Cassandra¡¯s eyes were slightly red. Keh had been watching her.

So he hurriedly closed the door and went out. It was a mid-September night and there were plenty of mosquitoes outside. Yannick was a bit regretful that he hadn¡¯t brought any mosquito repellent with him. The next day, Cassandra packed up her things and went out. It was time to go back to campus. However, when she went out, she met Keh. He walked forward with a smile and took the backpack from Cassandra¡¯s hand. ¡°Let''s go. I''ll drive you to campus,¡± said Keh in a good mood. Keh opened the passenger door for Cassandra and closed the door gently. After he got in the car, he handed Cassandra the breakfast he had bought and said, ¡°I bought you some breakfast. It will be a while before we get to school.¡± Cassandra looked at the breakfast Keh bought her and fell silent. It was not to say that Cassandra didn¡¯t like the breakfast Keh bought her, but she was full. Cassandra said hesitantly, ¡°Kenne, Hugo prepares me breakfast every day. It¡¯s too much.¡± Though saying that, Cassandra ate a croissant. Keh said apologetically, ¡°Sorry, | didn¡¯t know Hugo prepared breakfast for you every morning. Since you''re full, just put them aside.¡± Meanwhile, Keh felt relieved Cassandra was well taken care of. Cassandraughed, ¡°I could eat two more croissants. Keh was the first person to care so much about Cassandra and prepare her breakfast besides Hugo and Jeremiah, so Cassandra didn¡¯t want to let him down.. ¡°Okay. Whatever you like. I''ll eat the rest of them,¡± Keh smiled with concern, which warmed. Cassandra¡¯s heart.

Keh¡¯s eyes lit up and he continued, ¡°So Cass, Hugo couldn¡¯t prepare breakfast for you when you were living in the student apartment, right? How about | bring you breakfast every day?¡± ¡°No, I''ll just go to the canteen every day. It¡¯s so troublesome for you toe here every day.¡± Cassandra declined and shook her head. She even put the croissant down. ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter. | feel happy about getting my girlfriend breakfast every day,¡± Keh insisted. Cassandra suddenly felt that he was quite used to being a boyfriend. After a few seconds of hesitation, Cassandra agreed, ¡°Okay then. Thank you.¡± Only then did Keh smile with satisfaction, which waspletely different from his previous indifference. When they arrived at campus, Cassandra got off with the rest of her breakfast in her hand. ¡°Oh, give them to me. | ordered you a meal for lunch,¡± Keh said as he reached up to take the breakfast bag from Cassandra¡¯s hand. ¡°That¡¯s okay.¡± Cassandra said subconsciously, automatically ignoring the fact that Keh had ordered her lunch. ¡°But | haven¡¯t had breakfast yet and it¡¯s going to be toote to get breakfast now because | have a meeting soon. Would you like to give me your breakfast?¡± Keh said, feeling a twinge of disgust at his contrived tone. ¡°Then give it to me. Hurry up. You¡¯re gonna bete,¡± Keh urged and took the breakfast bag straight away. Cassandra shrugged and nodded. ¡°Well, then goodbye. Be careful when driving.¡± After saying that, Cassandra entered the campus.

Judging from the voice, it should be Sofia. Cassandra looked over and saw Sofia waving at her. Then she walked towards Sofia. Sofia pulled her enthusiastically. ¡°Come and sit down. I have reserved a seat for you.¡± ¡°Thank you.¡± ¡°Anytime. We¡¯re ssmates.¡± The most important thing is that you are still my idol. It would be so lucky to do you a favor!¡± thought Sofia. ¡°Cassandra, I heard that we are going to register for the courses today. Do you have confidence? Do you think you can get your favorite courses?¡± After Sofia saw the notice, she was nervous and afraid that she couldn¡¯t get her favorite courses. ¡°Well, it shouldn¡¯t be a big problem,¡± Cassandra said lightly. When Cassidy heard this, she also hurriedly came up and said, ¡°I heard that the teacher who teaches Traditional Medicine in the optional courses is the kindest. No one has ever failed his course, so everyone is scrambling for his course.¡± She hesitated. ¡°But his seat is limited. I may not be able to take his course since thepetition is so fierce.¡± Sofia suddenly thought of something. The most annoying thing is that we also have to learn. anatomy and take public courses with those who major in Modern Medicine.¡± At the thought of Emma¡¯s face, she felt that public courses were not that good. Cassandra raised her eyebrows as if she didn¡¯t know anything. ¡°Where did you all get that?¡± Although there was no expression on Cassandra¡¯s face, Sofia still felt that something was wrong with Cassandra today and she seemed to be in a good mood. ¡°Cassandra, these messages have been posted in the group chat. Are you not there?¡± Cassandra was stunned. Was there a ssmate group chat? She took out her phone and looked through WhatsApp, only to find a group chat with numerous messages. She didn¡¯t know when she was added to the group chat. Because there were too many messages, she 1/4 O Fri, 8 Mar Chapter 243 muted the notifications for the group chat.

How could Cassandra not log in to WhatsApp f?r a whole night? Cassandra raised her eyebrows. ¡°Idol?¡± Sofia scratched her head embarrassedly and said, ¡°I¡¯m Samantha¡¯s fan. So you are my idol.¡± Cassidy had already passed the excitement because she could only be regarded as a stander¨Cby. She listened to every song of Samantha and even sang them, but she couldn¡¯t say how much she liked them. However, Cassidy was very excited when she knew who Samantha really was and Samantha stood in front of her. It was just that she hadn¡¯t been as excited as Sofia for so long. Cassandra nodded with a smile, ¡°Thank you.¡± Outside the hospital gate, Frederick, Jasper, and Leonardo were thrown out. The security guard threw them to the ground fiercely. ¡°I gave you a week to raise money and pay the fees. Your injuries are almost healed. You still can¡¯t pay the fees. Do you think this is a public hospital?¡± Leonardo and the others went to the famous private hospital in Drieso, which charged high fees. and provided good service. But when they were hospitalized, they only paid the deposit and didn¡¯t put more money on it. As a result, things turned out like this. There was no money in every card they used, even the one left for Matthew, which made them a little confused. Matthew, Yohannes, and Raymond went to the bank for more information and were about to get a loan. Yet, the loan application was rejected. When they got back to the hospital, Leonardo and others had been kicked out. ¡°Leo, Fred, Jace, what¡¯s going on?¡± Yohannes hurriedly stepped forward to help the three of them. up, but Leonardo had a problem with his legs and could no longer stand, so he needed someone to fully support him. ¡°Yohannes, you¡¯re here.

We checked all the monitoring systems but didn¡¯t find any transfer records. The money disappeared out of thin air.¡± In fact, Cassandra remitted their money to a system. It was like writing some nk checks in it. As long as three or four days passed, all the numbers in the system would be cleared, and Cassandra received all the money as soon as it was transferred. ¡°Leo, let¡¯s go back first. There are too many people here.¡± It was crowded at the gate of the hospital. Therefore, those people were pointing fingers at them. ¡°Oh my God, he¡¯s dressed decently, How could he not afford the medical bill?¡± ¡°Their suits are all high¨Cend customized. They don¡¯t even have the money to see a doctor. It must `be fake¡± ¡°The world is so big that nothing is to be surprised at. I¡¯ve seen two people who can¡¯t pay the bill, but I have never seen anyone being thrown out in their twenties. If I were them, I would probably cry on the spot.¡± ¡°He even pretended to go to the bank and withdraw money, but it turned out that there was nothing. They can just look at each other in despair.¡± ¡°Aren¡¯t they the sons from the Yates family?¡± One, two, three, four, five, six. Six brothers in total.¡± ¡°What a weird family. Do they really think they are still from that rich and powerful family? They were as blind as a bat. Why didn¡¯t the fake rich girl sponsor them?¡± The discussion was getting louder and louder. The few of them couldn¡¯t stay here anymore, so they had to leave in dismay. They came to Matthew¡¯s apartment. It was arge apartment and the surrounding environment developed rapidly. The value of this apartment had doubled, but when it was bought, the six of them thought it was too small. ¡°What¡¯s going on? Why is so much money gone?¡± ¡°No, it¡¯s just weird. We checked all the systems and transfer records, but there was no operation on this sum of money. And¡­¡± Yohannes looked a little gloomy and didn¡¯t continue. ¡°And what?¡± ¡°Mom maxed out her credit card when she went to prison and owed more than 160 thousand dors. They were already living beyond their means, but now they had to take on a heavy debt. Yohannes felt himself overwhelmed. ¡°What?¡± 11:40 Fri, 8 Mar R BU. Chapter 243 Leonardo tried to stand up, but his legs were weak. 80% ¡°It¡¯s overdue. The bank has been contacting us to pay back the money on her behalf, or we will be sued.¡± Leonardo felt dizzy and almost couldn¡¯t hold on. ¡°Let her pay it herself. We have no money left. How can we pay it back?¡± Leonardo said angrily. ¡°Let those debt collectors go to jail to look for her!¡± Leonardo was inexplicably agitated and felt very ufortable in his heart. ¡°Leo¡­ Why don¡¯t I try to find Cassandra?¡± Cassandra found someone to cure Raymond¡¯s hand, so they could also ask her for help this time. Yohannes said excitedly. ¡°I¡¯m not going. Go by yourself. Cassie is disappointed with me.¡± Leonardo refused without thinking. ¡°Then what should we do now?¡± Yohannes asked grumpily. 4/4 Chapter 244 Chapter 244 Leonardo knew he couldn¡¯t stand up but he was too ashamed to see Cassandra again. Everything in the dream was so real that he survived by relying on Cassandra¡¯s survival method. Cassandra not only saved Raymond¡¯s life but also somehow saved Leonardo. With this perception, Leonardo felt even more embarrassed to see Cassandra. ¡°I don¡¯t know. Cassie gave money to save Ray, but now how can we beg her?¡± In the past, they thought Cassandra was their younger sister. Even if they cut ties with each other, they would go to find her because of her identity. Clearly knowing that she hated their guts, they would kidnap her in the name of her family member. They even felt that they did the right thing. But now, it turned out that Cassandra was not their younger sister. What was worse, they made irreparable mistakes. No one would forgive them. Besides, in the dream, Cassandra died in their hands. Leonardo was the cruelest person. He even asked someone to throw the corpse into the mountain and let it be gnawed by wild animals. The bodyguard. Where was the bodyguard? What about the bodyguard who was ordered to throw the corpse? Why didn¡¯t Leonardo see him in his memory? Leonardo didn¡¯t pay attention to Yohannes¡¯s nagging in his ear at all, and Yohannes also realized that something was off. ¡°Leo, are you listening to me?¡± ¡°Yohannes, where are the bodyguards in the Yates residence?¡± Leonardo asked. ¡°They have long been dismissed. We can¡¯t afford to pay their sries. Why do we keep them?¡± Among the six of them, only Matthew had a house now. All their real estate was exchanged for money. Now that the money had disappeared, they didn¡¯t know where it went. It could be said that they were broke now. This was the only ce that could keep out the wind and rain. However, Leonardo was lost in thought. He wondered if he could find those bodyguards after they had left. ¡°Do you have the phone numbers of those bodyguards?¡± ¡°No, but I have Robert¡¯s phone number. I think he has their contacts.¡± After the Yates residence was. sold, Robert also found another job.. ¡°I¡¯ll call Robert.¡± Leonardo also had Robert¡¯s phone number, and he started looking for his phone. ??? Chapter 244 8 Mar RG Yohannes was confused and asked, ¡°Leo, why are you looking for a bodyguard?¡± 80% Matthew and Jasper approached Leonardo. Jasper asked, ¡°Leo, you dreamed about Cassandra¡¯s death too, didn¡¯t you? So you want to find the bodyguard, but the bodyguard should know nothing. ¡°In the dream, you asked the bodyguard to throw Cassie into the mountain. Do you already know that?¡± Matthew¡¯s words confused Yohannes. What were they talking about? Leonardo called Robert and said, ¡°Robert, this is Leonardo. I have something to ask you.¡± ¡°Mr Yates, go ahead, please.¡± ¡°I wonder if any bodyguards resigned before.¡± ¡°There was one. It seems that he works in the Urban, and the sry is five times what the Yates family gave him.¡± ¡°Do you know who introduced the job to him?¡± ¡°I heard from other bodyguards that he thought he was lucky enough to be favored by Ms. Cassandra Yates and arranged for someone to poach him. He also received training before joining the Urban.¡± Robert knew it because he had taken care of that bodyguard when he was in the Yates residence, so he would contact that bodyguard sometimes. Leonardo hung up the phone in a daze. It seemed that Cassandra knew everything, so she treated them like this. It turned out that Cassandra was ungrateful, but they were too evil! At the same time, Jasper and Matthew looked pale. ¡°You can leave now. I want to be alone.¡± Leonardo closed his eyes and stopped looking at them. Only Yohannes was out of the picture and didn¡¯t understand what had happened. After walking out of the room, Yohannes asked, ¡°Jace, Matthew, what are you and Leo talking about?¡± ¡°Nothing. Don¡¯t disturb Leo,¡± Matthew said. Jasper suddenly fell straight to the ground with his eyes wide open. Yohannes and Matthew hurriedly stepped forward to check what was going on. ¡°Jasper, are you okay?¡± ¡°So¡­ It¡¯s all my fault. I deserve it.¡± Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. In the dream, he not only looked at Cassandra coldly but also injected her with medicine that could amplify the pain several times when she was seriously injured. No wonder Cassandra treated them. in a different way, and he was the most painful one. 111 O 11:40 Fri, 8 Mar R BU Chapter 244 So, it was all karma. ¡°Just¡­ leave me alone.¡± Then Jasper closed his eyes and fainted. ssandra had just finished ss when she; had her curriculum. ¡°Why are you so punctual?¡± a call from Keh. She was curious why Keh Keh said proudly, ¡°I asked your instructor for your curriculum and minor courses. ¡°But I don¡¯t want to master your schedule. I just want to figure out when toe and treat you to a meal.¡± Cassandra smiled lightly, ¡°So, are you at the school gate now?¡± ¡°Of course. Would you like to have a meal with me?¡± ¡°Wait for me.¡± Cassandra hung up the phone and couldn¡¯t help smiling. Sofia immediately realized something was. off and asked curiously, ¡°Cassandra, do you have a date?¡± ¡°Yes. Bingo, but there is no reward.¡± Cassandra rarely made a joke, then picked up her backpack, and left Sofia felt a little unbelievable. She asked Cassidy nkly, ¡°Did Cassandra joke with me just now?¡± Cassidy looked disgusted andined, ¡°It¡¯s normal. There is nothing to be surprised about.¡± ¡°You don¡¯t know how it feels. You are not Samantha¡¯s fan after all!¡± Sofia thought, ¡°This kind of great discovery should be shared with Samantha¡¯s real fans. ¡°Samantha had an unfortunate childhood. She finally returns to her biological parents¡® home but is abused by others. How can she smile and joke? ¡®But recently, she always had a faint smile. She even made a joke just now. Who changed her? I really want to know. I will definitely thank them for their kindness! ¡°Don¡¯t exaggerate. Cassandra is a human being, and she has feelings of joy and sorrow. Besides, I don¡¯t think that she is a gloomy person. On the contrary, when I met her, she was very cute, okay? Don¡¯t think Cassandra is so fragile. You can protect her in the name of a fan but don¡¯t over¨Cprotect her. Isn¡¯t it the most important for her to be happy?¡± Sofia looked at Cassidy in shock. She thought, How could this arrogant youngdy say such a long sentence? What she said makes sense!¡± ¡°Are you possessed by something? How could you say so many great truths?¡± Sofia asked. 0 11:40, Fri, 8 Mar RGU. Chapter 214 Cassidy¡¯s face darkened at once and she said in a fierce tone, ¡°What? Am I so unreasonable and evil in your heart? I¡¯m also Cassandra¡¯s friend!¡± Then Cassidy left angrily. Sofia was a little dumbfounded. Why did Cassidy get angry all of a sudden? Sofia muttered in a low voice, ¡°I just wanted to praise you. Why didn¡¯t you wait for me to finish? ¡°I still have to appease you. It¡¯s really killing me!¡± Sofia wondered when Cassidy could change her bad temper! Çú Chapter 245 Chapter 245 After Cassandra got into Keh¡¯s car, she threw her backpack in the back seat and asked, ¡°What are we going to eat?¡± ¡°Let¡¯s go home. I¡¯ll cook for you. Keh reached out and rubbed Cassandra¡¯s head, saying in a doting tone. But Cassandra dodged in disgust. ¡°No more rubbing or I can¡¯t grow taller.¡± Cassandra had no choice. She was only 5.4 feet tall. During her adolescent period, she devoted all her energy to learning skills and had meals irregrly, so she grew slowly. Her current height. gradually improved after she used traditional medicine to recuperate herself. At the age of 16, she suddenly grew a little taller. Otherwise, she might be only 5.1 feet tall. ¡°Cassandra, you are the most perfect with a height like this. You don¡¯t need to be any taller,¡± Keh said. A height of 5.4 feet was considered to be tall among girls. So there was no need topare with girls who were 5.5 feet tall or even taller, Cassandra was the cutest at this height. Cassandra didn¡¯t believe in Keh¡¯s rhetoric. Of course, Keh didn¡¯t care. He was 6.2 feet tall. There was a distance of 9.8 inches between him. and her. When they stood together, they looked like an uncle taking his niece out. They didn¡¯t look like a perfect match at all. When the two arrived at Springmount Townhouse, they were stopped again. It was Raymond.. Raymond stepped forward and pped the passenger door. ¡°Cassandra, get out of the car. I want to talk to you. Get out of the car!¡± Cassandra¡¯s good mood disappeared at the moment Raymond appeared. She got out of the car and asked coldly, ¡°What do you want to say?¡± Cassandra¡¯s indifferent aura made Raymond somewhat ufortable. ¡°Did you take our money. away?¡± Cassandra sneered, ¡°Raymond, are you crazy? Go and check your brain. Why do you think I am capable of taking all your money away?¡± She was really capable of doing this. She gave the money to a few orphanages in the suburbs of Drieso so that they could repair the orphanages and buy some clothes and school supplies for the children. Those shabby things should be reced. She checked the backgrounds of those orphanages one by one, so she was relieved. Miranda killed a little girl, so it was reasonable for her sons to pay her debts. 0 80% Chapter 245 Raymond didn¡¯t believe her words at all. You are capable of doing this. Even if you aren¡¯t, what about him? He is the richest man in the world and a powerful figure.¡± Raymond pointed at Keh and questioned Cassandra. ¡°Raymond, if you have evidence, sue me. If you don¡¯t, I will sue you for defamation. Or we cant solve it in other ways. Cassandra¡¯s face darkened instantly. Raymond swallowed his saliva unconsciously and said. ¡°It¡¯s definitely you. No one has such abig hatred for the Yates family except you. We are in such a terrible state now. Aren¡¯t you satisfied?¡± ¡°No, it¡¯s far from enough. If killing wasn¡¯t illegal, you would have died long ago, and it wasn¡¯t your turn to shout at me!¡± Raymond was so agitated that he wanted to p Cassandra, but his hand didn¡¯t fall at all. He was grabbed by Cassandra and thrown out fiercely. However, at the moment he fell, he clearly felt that his left hand was misced. ¡°Raymond, for the sake of Benjamin¡¯s death and I¡¯m in a good mood today, this matter is over. If you show up in front of me again, it will not be as simple as breaking your hand.¡± Cassandra got into the car directly, but Keh didn¡¯t get in. Instead, he walked around from the front of the car to Raymond and stamped on Raymond¡¯s leg. ¡°If you disturb Cassandra again, I¡¯ll cut you into a shred and put you on disy in the city center!¡± Keh kicked hard, and the sound of bone cracking could be heard clearly. Then he walked back to the driver¡¯s seat as if nothing had happened and drove the car into the. neighborhood. His movement was smooth without doing anything extra. Cassandra didn¡¯t utter a word, but the smile on her face had betrayed her. Keh didn¡¯t think she was ruthless, and he even went up to kick Raymond hard. She broke Raymond¡¯s arm and Keh broke Raymond¡¯s leg. Raymond waspletely ruined. When Cassandra returned to Keh¡¯s house, she found that he had already prepared all the ingredients. Even the soup was almost ready. Yannick looked funny and ridiculous guarding the soup in the kitchen. Seeing theming back, Yannick seemed to see a savior. ¡°Mr. Zelinski, Ms. Yates, you¡¯re finally back! This soup is too scary!¡± Words failed Keh. Cassandra smiled unconsciously, ¡°What¡¯s so scary about the soup?¡± ¡°It¡¯s gurgling terribly! It¡¯s good that youe back. I¡¯ll leave first!¡± Yannick ran away as fast as his legs could carry him. It was not his fault. Yannick was terrible at cooking. He couldn¡¯t tell whether the water was boiling 2/1 111 O :40 Fri, 8 Mar R Chapter 245 or not, and he admitted that in this respect, he was no match for embeth ? ???? If it weren¡¯t for the fact that Keh was allergic to so many things. Yannick wouldn¡¯t have known so many vegetables and meat at all. Keh said disdainfully. ¡°Ignore him. He is terrible at cooking. When be cooked for the first time, he blew up my kitchen. He can¡¯t even tell whether the water is boding or not. It has been a blessing for him to live so long. Cassandra was rendered speechless. Jeremiah could even make simple dishes to support himself Keh had already put on an apron and was ready to cook. Cassandra looked up and saw Keh wearing the apron. She couldn¡¯t help but burst intoughter. Content provided by N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Keh, the pattern on your apron is¡­ so cute.¡± Cassandra couldn¡¯t help it. It was so cute. On the apron was the pattern of Winnie the Pooh. It bent down, turned its head and suck out its tongue. It was so funny. Keh nced at his apron in confusion. ¡°I¡¯ll go get another one.¡± In the storage room of the kitchen, there were several newly bought aprons, but each was ter than the other. There was Doraemon. Pikachu, Squirtle, and even a pink apron with rabbits on it¡­ Keh was dumbfounded and wondered why Yannick had bought all of these! However, Cassandraughed heartily and Keh was stunned by herughter. Herughter was very pleasant, more beautiful than therk. With herughter, it seemed that the world had be a better ce. ¡°Keh, these aprons are so cute. Just use them.¡± Cassandra smiled and she was in a pleasant mood. Keh asked, ¡°Do you think these look good?¡± ¡°Did she have any special taste?¡¯ he wondered. ¡°Yes, when Grandma Blossom was still alive, she would apany me to watch cartoons every day. I just watched these cartoons with her After she passed away, no one apanied me. So, you look good in these aprons.¡± As Cassandra spoke, she missed Blossom. Keh took a deep breath and exhaled heavily. Anyway, as long as Cassandra liked it. O Chapter 215 ¡°Then which one do you like? I¡¯ll wear it to cook tonight.¡± SENO GET Chapter 246 Chapter 246 Cassandra thought carefully and said seriously, ¡°Winnie the Pooh, right? Next time you cook, wear the other one.¡± Keh raised his eyebrows and asked in confusion, ¡°Winnie the Pooh!¡± Cassandra said, ¡°It¡¯s the one on you. Don¡¯t change it. Hurry up! I¡¯m hungry.¡± She was really hungry. She wasted time at the door just now. Otherwise, she was able to cook two dishes at this moment. Thinking of this, she felt that the Yates family was even more annoying. ¡°There are snacks in the refrigerator. Have some first, and the dinner will be ready in a while.¡± Hearing that Cassandra was hungry, Keh didn¡¯t bother about whether the apron looked good or not and hurriedly went to the kitchen to start cooking. Cassandra saw the shrimp in the basket and asked, ¡°Aren¡¯t you allergic to this kind of shrimp? Why did you buy it?¡± Keh picked up the shrimp thread smoothly and said skillfully, ¡°I know you like it. Just because you¡¯re with me, and you can¡¯t even eat your favorite shrimp, making me look domineering.¡± His words moved Cassandra. But Keh thought it was very simple. When Cassandra lived with Blossom, Cassandra rarely ate shrimp for almost a year. For Cassandra, shrimps were precious food. When Keh was hunted down and saved by Cassandra, she once went to the town to buy a lot of shrimp. But at that time, she was reluctant to eat them and wanted to save them for her sick. grandmother. He was allergic to shrimp, but it didn¡¯t mean that he couldn¡¯t have shrimp for dinner in the future. It was just cooking one dish at home. Cassandra didn¡¯t know what to say. She silently opened the refrigerator and was surprised when she saw a lot of snacks. ¡°Why are there so many snacks?¡± Keh didn¡¯t stop and said, ¡°They¡¯re your favorites. I asked someone to prepare some for you. You can see if it suits your taste or tell me what you like to eat. I will ask Yannick to buy some.¡± In this way, whenever Cassandra wanted to have snacks, she would think ofing to find him so they could have more time together. It was a good idea. ¡°How do you know I like to eat snacks?¡± Cassandra took a bag of raisins, opened it, and ate it. ¡°Who came to me for snacks before thest day of the physical training? Who kept eating snacks. but didn¡¯t eat much barbecue at the friendship night?¡± Keh¡¯s repeated questions made Cassandra a little embarrassed. Chapter 246 8 Mar ¡°That¡¯s a gift from my ssmate. I can¡¯t refuse it.¡± Cassandra felt a little guilty, but she insisted. ¡°What you said is right. Let¡¯s go eat,¡± Keh smiled. If it weren¡¯t for the water in his hands, he would really like to pinch her little face. Her mouth was stuffed with raisins and her cheeks looked very cute. About another hourter, Keh finally made dinner. There were six dishes in total. Cassandra looked at these dishes which were delicious. ¡°Sit down and eat.¡± Cassandra couldn¡¯t wait to pick up a shrimp, peel off the shell and start eating. This season¡¯s crayfish was not excellent enough, so this kind of sea shrimp was the best. She closed her eyes with satisfaction and didn¡¯t expect Keh to be so good at cooking. ¡°How is it? Is it delicious?¡± Keh asked cautiously with expectation in his eyes. ¡°It¡¯s so delicious. I think it tastes better than mine.¡± Cassandra tasted a spoonful of soup. She wanted. to try the taste of the ¡°terrible¡± soup in Yannick¡¯s view. She took a sip and wondered, ¡®It is very delicious, but how could it be scary in Yannick¡¯s view?¡± After dinner, Cassandra was about to go to the kitchen to wash dishes, but Keh stopped her. He said, ¡°There¡¯s no need to wash them. There is a dishwasher. I can put these in.¡± He gave the cleaner a vacation, so he had to do everything himself. However, it seemed to be wonderful to be with Cassandra. Cassandra sat on the sofa after dinner. She thought that if it went on like this, she would gain lots of weight sooner orter. The breakfast was different every day, and the food ordered at noon was also ording to the standard. configuration with very fresh ingredients, which was more delicious than those prepared by Hugo. If she ate like this every night, she would gain ten pounds in a month. Cassandra said, ¡°I think I will get fat sooner orter.¡± Keh said, ¡°That¡¯s good. This is my lifelong wish.¡± He just wanted to make Cassandra gain more weight and be healthy. Although she was tall now, she was too thin and looked like she would be blown away by the wind. 2/4: A 0 Chapter 216 They cuddled each other for a long time. It was almost ten o¡¯clock when Keh got up and said, ¡°Let¡¯s go. I¡¯ll drive you back to school.¡± It took an hour to drive from Springmount Townhouse to Juset University every day, but now it only took 40 minutes without traffic jams, Cassandra could sleep a little longer the next day. Cassandra got up and followed Keh out. When they returned to the student apartment, Sofia and Cassidy were also at the door. ¡°Cassandra, you just came back now. Who send you back?¡± Sofia¡¯s eyes were full of curiosity. Why did she feel that there was something wrong with Cassandra these days? She had be¡­ glowing. ¡°My boyfriend. How about the answer?¡± Cassandra said. She thought, ¡®Keh deserves it. So what if I admit it?¡± ¡°Ahhh! If you are in love with someone, what should I do? Who dares take you away from me?! I won¡¯t let him go!¡± Sofia didn¡¯t expect that Cassandra was in love with a man. It was aplete blow! Cassandra was speechless. It seemed that Keh had an enemy. Keh just stopped the car and heard Sofia¡¯s words. Seeing himing, Cassandra pointed at him and said, ¡°Here it is. Do you want to get even with him?¡± Although Cassidy was a little excited, she wasn¡¯t as exaggerated as Sofia. Cassidy could just let Sofia talk for the time being. When the two of them looked over, a man who was 6 feet 3 inches tall walked towards them. The closer he got to them, the more attractive his face looked. Sofia was obsessed with appearance, but she didn¡¯t scream at this time. She said, ¡°Cassandra, I don¡¯t think he deserves you. Shake hands and break it up!¡± As Cassandra¡¯s fan, she felt that no man in the world deserved Cassandra! Besides, this man looked very mature at first sight. He must be older than Cassandra. Sofia thought, ¡°Wait. Why does this guy look so familiar? 11:40 Fri, 8 Mar R GU Chapter 216 ¡®Keh? Keh!¡± ¡°Keh?¡± Sofia¡¯s voice quavered at once! She wondered, ¡®Cassandra¡¯s boyfriend is Keh? ¡°When did they hook up? Was it when the show was being recorded?¡± Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. Keh nodded and looked at Cassandra. He said gently, ¡°What are you talking about?¡± Cassandra said. ¡°They asked who took me away?¡± Keh was speechless. He didn¡¯t know what to say. ? Chapter 247 Chapter 247 Keh was a little confused. However, Sofia was too excited to say anything. She never thought that Cassandra¡¯s boyfriend was Keh, the richest man in the world. She would not forget this face when she saw it! Cassidy also pinched Sofia¡¯s arm excitedly until it hurt. ¡°Ouch!¡± Then Cassidy let go of Sofia awkwardly. Cassidy asked, ¡°Keh, are you Cassandra¡¯s boyfriend?¡± She thought, | heard that Keh was in his twenties. Why is he still with a girl as young as Cassandra? Is he pretending that he is still young?¡± ¡°Do | not look like her boyfriend?¡± Keh asked. It seemed that Cassandra introduced him just now, but he felt a little regretful and didn¡¯t hear it personally. Cassandra smiled, and her eyebrows slightly raised, showing her happy mood. ¡°Let me introduce my boyfriend, Keh.¡± It was not Cassidy and Sofia who were excited, but Keh. He didn¡¯t expect that he would be introduced so soon. He thought it would be a secret for a few years because of Cassandra''s study. Sofia¡¯s mind was full of thoughts. ¡®Is Cassandra really with Keh?!¡± When she watched the variety show before, she had thought that Cassandra looked perfect match. with Thomas or Amelia. Even if thements were talking about how match Keh and Cassandra were on the screen, it was just funny. No one dared to make a joke about Keh. But now, all the possibilities were impossible, the most impossible couple was true. ¡°Hello, everyone.¡± Keh nodded slightly and greeted them with a smile. Cassandra felt that it waste, so she said, ¡°Go back quickly. I''ll go upstairs with them.¡± Keh said, ¡°Okay, have a good rest when you arrive. I''lle back tomorrow morning.¡± These days, he woulde here every morning. It seemed that after seeing her once, he was more motivated to work. Therefore, he would take breakfast and apany her to the school gate. The three of them walked into the student apartment. Keh¡¯s greeting just now couldn''t [e) 11:40 Fri, 8 Mar RBU Chapter 247 suppress their curiosity. Sofia asked, ¡°Cassandra, when did you be with Keh? Is it beginning from the program?¡± Cassandra shook her head. ¡°No, we had a romantic rtionship after the summer camp.¡± Sofia thought for a while and realized that it had been less than a week. 80% She wondered, ¡®Is Cassandra so vigorous? She doesn¡¯t give him a long-term assessment. She even officially announced it to us. ¡°How is Keh treating you?¡± This was what Sofia cared about the most. Cassandra thought for a while and smiled unconsciously, ¡°He is good to me.¡± ¡°That¡¯s good, Cassandra. You should be happy!¡± After the three of them finished chatting in the elevator, Cassandra found that Cassidy and Sofia were on the same floor with her when she got out. Cassandra asked, ¡°Do you also live here?¡± ¡°Yeah. There are too many people in the dormitory, so we wanted to apply for a student apartment. It just happens that there is enough room for us,¡± Sofia exined. The next day, Cassandra entered the ssroom with Keh. But she found that her ssmates today were very enthusiastic. [Did you hear that? There will be a new transfer student today. He¡¯s the prince of Zosteylor and the Queen¡¯s only son.] [I heard that! He will study with us for five years in the future.] [Why does a foreign princee to Clusia to learn traditional medicine?] [Who knows? He''ll be here soon anyway. | wonder what the prince looks like.] Even Cassidy couldn¡¯t help gossiping. ¡°Cassandra, have you heard that there will be a prince in our ss? The school seems to attach great importance to him.¡±This is property ? of N?velDrama.Org. Cassandra nodded. ¡°Yes, | just heard.¡± Cassidy was speechless and thought, ¡°You heard their discussion just now!¡± Before the ss, the instructor came in, followed by a handsome boy. His hair was styled fashionably and his eyes were striking, which attracted all the girls present. The instructor was introducing this new student, but he nced at his ssmates and suddenly [e) 11:40 Fri, 8 Mar R BU. Chapter 247 smiled. ¡°Introduce yourself and let everyone know about you,¡± The instructor said. 80% Harper said, ¡°Hello, everyone. My name is Harper Yates. I¡¯m 18 years old and from Zosteylor. Nice to meet you.¡± Sofia also poked Cassandra and said, ¡°He has the samest name as you.¡± ¡°He is Prince from Zosteylor. How could his surname be Yates? He just changed it casually.¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t care. Soha nodded in agreement. The instructor said, ¡°Then find a seat. It¡¯s time for ss.¡± Harper nodded and walked towards his ssmates. He looked at them for a long time and finally stopped beside Sofia. ¡°Excuse me, can | sit in your seat?¡± Facing Harper¡¯s wink, Sofia surrendered and said, ¡°Okay. Then sit down.¡± Just as Sofia was about to get up, Cassandra stopped her. Cassandra said coldly to Harper, ¡°This seat is taken. You can sit in another seat.¡± Cassandra sat between Cassidy and Sofia, while Sofia was sitting in the aisle. If Sofia gave up her seat, then this person would sit next to Cassandra. Harper shrugged regretfully and said politely, ¡°I¡¯m very sorry. Then | will sit in another seat.¡± He thought, ¡®Damn it. The first thing she said to me was ¡°This seat is taken. Finally, he chose a position behind Cassandra and asked someone to move inside. After ss, Harper took the initiative to greet them again. ¡°Hi, nice to meet you. What are your names?¡± He stood next to Sofia again, smiling cutely. Sofia said, ¡°My name is Sofia.¡± She pointed at Cassandra who was busy writing. ¡°This is Cassandra, who got the highest SAT score in our country.¡± Then she pointed at Cassidy and said, ¡°She is Cassidy.¡± The content is on noveldrama.org!

Sofia asked, ¡°Cassandra, where are you going?¡± ¡°I''m going to the Physics Department. You can have lunch with Cassidy.¡± Cassandra had lunch at noon. To be honest, she had been in school for almost a week and didn¡¯t even know where the canteen was. The content is on noveldrama.org! Read thetest chapter there! It was a little embarrassing- Only then did Sofia remember that Cassandra had a minor course. She said, ¡°Okay, go ahead.¡± Cassandra left without even looking at Harper. 0 Chapter 248 Chapter 248 Without Cassandra, Harper didn¡¯t have much interest in eating. He took out his phone and opened the group chat. Harper: [It¡¯s difficult for me to get close to Cassandra. After saying a few words, she has already lost patience.] Someone in the group quickly responded. Vincent: [What did you say to make her dislike you?] Theodore: [If you can¡¯t do it,e back and let Vincent do it.] Harper: [No, I¡¯m the elder brother. I don¡¯t believe my sister is so cruel.] Theodore: [Mom and Dad still don¡¯t know about her. You can deal with it as soon as possible. If it goes well, I will tell Mom and Dad again.] Harper: [Okay.] Vincent: [If you can¡¯t, let me do it. If it weren¡¯t for the suspicion of Cassandra, I wouldn¡¯t have let you go alone.] Harper: [Don¡¯t even think about it!] He put down his phone and stared thoughtfully at Cassandra¡¯s seat. He especially changed his father¡¯s surname and came back to recognize his sister, but he failed on the first day. But this is all Cassandra didn¡¯t know. In the Physics Department, when Emma saw Cassandra¡¯s figure, her eyes darkened and looked terrifying. She hurriedly stepped forward and said in a sharp tone, ¡°Isn¡¯t this Cassandra from the traditional medicine major? What are you doing here?¡± Cassandra looked at Emma coldly and said, ¡°Excuse me.¡± ¡°If you don¡¯t make it clear, then the Physics Department will not wee you.¡± Emma stood in front of Cassandra. Physics and mathematics were the trump cards of Juset University. Many students who could be admitted to these two departments were very proud, but Emma was arrogant. ¡°It doesn¡¯t seem to have anything to do with you. Have you ever heard the saying that ¡®Good dogs don¡¯t stand in the way where others walk?¡± Cassandra retorted without hesitation. KA 11:40 Fri, 8 Mar RG Chapter 248 80% Emma¡¯s tone became sharper. She looked at Cassandra with hatred in her eyes. ¡°You insulted me? Cassandra, you are not wee in the Physics Department. Get out of here now, right away! She pointed to the door of the Physics Department building and let Cassandra out. Cassandra said, ¡°Wherever I go, it¡¯s my business. Mind your own business.¡± ¡°But you are not a student in the Physics Department. This is not a ce for you toe here. If you break something and affect the experiment, can you afford it? Emma asked. Emma¡¯s attitude could be described as arrogant. Cassandra ignored Emma and called Howard. ¡®I am downstairs. Your student stopped me from going up. Today was her first day of ss. But before she could go upstairs, Emma stopped her here. ¡°Who are you phoning? There is someone in the Physics Department who you know?¡± Emma said in a disdainful tone. Cassandra said sarcastically, ¡°Actually, we don¡¯t know each other. But since the beginning of the summer camp, you have been making trouble for me everywhere. Tell me how I offended you.¡± Emma said, ¡°I just don¡¯t like you, so what? You don¡¯t want to speak as a freshman representative on the surface, but you even recite the script behind your back. You are hypocritical?¡± Cassandra was stunned for a moment and thought, ¡°Was she talking about the first day of school?¡± It suddenly dawned on Cassandra that Emma was the freshman in the Principal¡¯s Office that day, and Emma was refused by Henry. It seemed that Henry had nned to let Cassandra address the speech, but the Physics Department chose Emma. So Emma thought that Cassandra took her ce. ¡°If I remember correctly, that was Mr. Wilson¡¯s arrangement. He said in advance that he had at candidate and your department director insisted on rmending you. You med me now. It¡¯s really funny.¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t want to argue with Emma but Emma provoked her again and again. She found it ridiculous. Now Emma even stopped her from going upstairs. Cassandra thought, ¡®Crazy woman. Emma said, ¡°You are talking nonsense. You showed up in the Principal¡¯s Office just because your wanted to be the freshman representative to address the speech.¡± Cassandra was speechless and wondered, ¡®Is she out of her mind? ¡®How did she get into Juset University?¡® 2/4 11:40 Fri, 8 Mar R BU. Chapter 248- ÅÌ: 80% ¡°What are you doing?¡± When Howard came down and saw someone stopping Cassandra, his face changed instantly. Emma didn¡¯t expect to meet Howard at this time. ¡°Hello, Professor Kaptur. I¡¯m your student, Emma.¡± Emma introduced herself earnestly, hoping to make a good impression in front of Howard. ¡°I¡¯m not interested in knowing who you are. I mean, what are you doing here?¡± Howard¡¯s question made Emma¡¯s heart skip a beat. Cassandra said, ¡°You don¡¯t have to ask, Howard, anyway, the Physics Department doesn¡¯t wee me very much. Can you cancel my course? I don¡¯t want toe here.¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t want to learn this major. It was Howard who asked her to do it. He had the only instrument in his hand in Clusia, but not the only one in the world. At worst, she could buy it at home. Howard¡¯s expression changed and he hurriedly said, ¡°Cassie, don¡¯t talk nonsense. You can¡¯t leave the Physics Department!¡± Cassandra was so talented in physics that even Howard felt ashamed of himself. If it weren¡¯t for that Cassandra hadn¡¯t epted an apprentice, he would have wanted to be her disciple. He finally ask her to study physics because he wanted Juset University and Clusia to improve their physics. But now¡­ Emma¡¯s face changed slightly and turned pale. ¡°Professor Kaptur¡­ Is Cassandra a student of the Physics Department?¡± ¡°What? Do you have a problem? Cassandra minored in physics. Why did you stop her here?¡± Howard¡¯s questioning almost made Emma stand unsteadily. Emma exined, ¡°I just¡­¡± ¡°Can we have sses now?¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t want to listen to their conversation. There were only 25 minutes left in this ss, and she could have lunch after that. ¡°Come on, let¡¯s go upstairs first.¡± Howard kindly took her upstairs and turned to look at Emma. ¡°Go to my office and think about what kind of exnation you should give me!¡± In this physics ss, the students obviously felt that Howard was very enthusiastic.

Howard was speechless. ¡°Cassie, are you really not considering majoring in physics? Physics is more promising than traditional medicine.¡± Howard asked confusedly. He knew that traditional medicine needed to be inherited, but Cassandra was extremely talented in physics. She should be on the stage of physics! # SEND GIFT 111 O 0 COMMENT Chapter 249 Chapter 249 Cassandra ignored him and said, ¡°Howard, don¡¯t worry. I won¡¯t be absent from your physics ss. Other than that, I can¡¯t meet your requirements.¡± At first, Faye¡¯s name charged a lot because she wanted to make money at the beginning. Butter, she didn¡¯tck money and it depended on her mood to save people. Therefore, she would not be absent from the free consultation every once in a while. However, few people paid attention to traditional medicine. Besides, she liked dealing with herbs very much. It was interesting and not asplicated as physical experiments. Howard said, ¡°Fine, fine. I have apetition here. You can participate in it.¡± Cassandra was speechless. ¡°Individual or team?¡± Cassandra asked. Howard said, ¡°It¡¯s a teampetition and is mainly for postgraduates, and I want you to participate in it.¡± He thought, ¡®Only if you participate, can I have confidence in thispetition. Winning the prize is one thing, but winning the first prize is another. Cassandra said, ¡°Then you can team up with graduate students first. I¡¯ll be a spare. I¡¯m just a freshman in college, so it¡¯s not appropriate to participate now.¡± Howard originally wanted to retort, but Cassandra had a point, so he didn¡¯t insist. ¡°Well, I will let the graduate students team up first.¡± He was originally a tutor for doctoral and graduate students. The reason why he came to teach undergraduate students was that Cassandra was just a freshman, and he enjoyed her calling him a teacher. So he spent more time teaching college students. ¡°I have something else to do. I¡¯m leaving now. Cassandra ran away with a backpack. When she returned to the student apartment, the delivery man was already waiting at the door. ¡°Ms. Yates, please sign for your meal today! The delivery man handed Cassandra arge bag. ¡°Okay, thank you. Cassandra went upstairs with her lunch. She opened the lunch box and found that it suited her taste. It seemed that Keh was very thoughtful. She had watched videos of the couple by ident before, saying that they wanted to share their life 07:24 Sat, 9 Mar Chapter 249 ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org . with each other, which proved that you liked him very much. She took a picture of the food and sent it to Keh. Keh, who was still in a meeting and didn¡¯t have time to eat, received the message immediately. He smiled and replied, ¡°Enjoy your meal. Go to ss after a rest.¡± After replying to the message, Keh looked at the people in the office and said to Yannick, ¡®Go downstairs and get some lunch in the canteen. We¡¯ll continue after dinner.¡± The general managers sitting there almost cried out. They thought that they would have a hungry meeting until the end of work today! Unexpectedly, Keh was able to think about their health. It was a miracle. After a while, Yannick led the canteen staff toe up. The main reason was that there were too many lunches for dozens of people. He couldn¡¯t bring them by himself, let alone there was so much soup. After Keh got the boxed lunch, he took a photo and sent it to Cassandra. ¡°I¡¯m starting lunch too. See you tonight.¡± He smiled. His normal behavior seemed to be weird in the eyes of those general managers. They wondered, ¡®What¡¯s wrong with Keh? ¡®Is he falling in love with someone? ¡®I can¡¯t believe that I can see Keh¡¯s sincere smile. I must be in my dream.. ¡®Something¡¯s wrong with Keh!¡± Everyone was curious about it. In the afternoon, Harper had learned that he had no way to sit next to Cassandra, so he sat behind her wherever she sat. It was good to watch her in ss. ¡°Good afternoon, Cassandra.¡± Harper handed her the coffee he bought and said, ¡°Nice to meet you. Have a drink.¡± He handed over the other two cups of coffee and said, ¡°These are for Sofia and Cassidy.

Harper directly ignored Cassandra¡¯s impatience with him and then said warmly, ¡°Cassandra, how did you want to be a traditional medicine practitioner? Is there anyone in your family who is a traditional medicine practitioner?¡± Cassandra replied coldly, ¡°I don¡¯t have a family. It seems that what I study has nothing to do with you. She thought. This man is too enthusiastic which is weird. Sofia¡¯s enthusiasm for her came from Samantha, and the process she knew Cassidy was by ident. After knowing each other for so long, the ssmates kept a certain sense of distance. But this man, who had just transferred to the school today, was enthusiastic about Cassandra, which was weird. When Cassandra said she had no family, Harper was stunned for a moment and said in his heart, ¡°No, you have a family, your parents who love you very much, and three brothers. Although Theodore and Vincent are not biological children of our parents, we all love you very much. ¡°It¡¯s just not the right time! Harper said. ¡°Sorry, I mean no harm.¡± Cassandra ignored him, but she knew that he meant no harm. So she didn¡¯t do anything. On Friday afternoon, Keh came to pick up Cassandra from school early. She only had one ss in the afternoon, and it would be over at 3:30. Therefore, as the boss, Keh skipped work! Yannick had been sufferingtely. Ethan and Lamont were forced to learn business management in order to share Yannick¡¯s workloads. Cassandra got in the car and asked, ¡°Why are you here so carly? Aren¡¯t you at work?¡± Keh said proudly, Tm the boss and I have the final say. No one can control me.¡± Cassandra nodded. When they returned to Springmount Townhouse, they walked hand in hand.

Cassandra frowned, ¡°What are you yelling for?¡± Jeremiah suddenly felt a little dissatisfied. ¡°Aren¡¯t you happy that I¡¯m back?¡± ¡°I would be happier if you didn¡¯t say a few words. Cassandra and Keh still held hands. She bypassed Jeremiah and went straight into the living room. Jeremiah asked, ¡°Hey, tell me. What¡¯s wrong with you two?¡± 97%) Keh even held Cassandra¡¯s hand and dared to defile his sister. Jeremiah wanted to kill Keh! He was furious! ¡°Just what you saw.

He raised his chin and said, ¡°I won¡¯t tell you!¡± She didn¡¯t tell him about such a big thing as falling in love with Keh, nor did she report it to him. Under the condition that she didn¡¯t know Keh thoroughly enough, she was innocent. A pure girl like her was absolutely fooled by Keh! ¡°Are you going to tell me or not?¡± Cassandra nced at him! ¡°It¡¯s done. Jeremiah swallowed unconsciously and snorted reluctantly. Cassandra said, ¡°Well, that¡¯s good. You can rest at home for two days and report to the Falcon Special Operations Force in a few days¡± Jeremiah was stunned.

It¡¯s not an important army, and it is normal that you don¡¯t like it. Then take a rest for two days and go to the Whitecrane Hall to help.¡± Cassandra pretended to be sorry. Jeremiah was speechless. He felt that ine did it on purpose, but he had no evidence. Keh understood what Cassandra was thinking and agreed, ¡°Don¡¯t force him. After all, he is your brother. I was going to arrange for him to win glory for the country in his field of expertise. Since he is unwilling to do so, I can¡¯t force him.¡± Jeremiah was confused. He thought, ¡°You¡¯re the one who asked me to go, and you are the one who won¡¯t let me go now. What are you talking about?¡± ¡°Keh! You¡¯ve gone too far.

However, Keh was somewhat dissatisfied with what Cassandra said, which meant that he had not given her enough security. He thought, I will keep trying Jeremiah said, ¡°Fine. Anyway, you¡¯re a college student now. There are so many handsome guys of the same age in school. If you like itter, just change one.¡± Jeremiah was already looking forward to that. It must be wonderful. The smile on Keh¡¯s face gradually froze. When he looked at Jeremiah, there was a hint of curiosity on his face. ¡°I don¡¯t think you are tired now. In that case, I will ask Yannick to take you to registerter.¡± Keh put a piece of watermelon on the coffee table with a toothpick and fed it to Cassandra. The movements were smooth as if they had been used to it. ¡°What?¡± Jeremiah was confused. ¡°That was not what you said just now.¡± ¡°I think so. Let¡¯s do it now.¡± Cassandra nodded in agreement, fully agreeing with Keh. Therefore, they naturally ignored Jeremiah¡¯s feelings. Five minutester, Yannick appeared in Cassandra¡¯s vi. After greeting Keh and Cassandra, he looked at Jeremiah. ¡°Mr. Lawson, wee to join us! You are the 122nd member of Falcon Special Operations Force. Our comrades can¡¯t wait to see you. Come with me!¡± Yannick stepped forward and took Jeremiah¡¯s hand enthusiastically. With that, Yannick dragged Jeremiah to the door, but Jeremiah was so reluctant. ¡°I¡¯m not going now. Let go of mo!¡± Jeremiah thought he was kidnapped! ¡°Mr. Lawson, will you let yourrades¨Cin¨Carms wait for you under the scorching sun? Come with me.¡± Then Yannick dragged Jeremiah out of the door. Jeremiah sat in the car and doubted himself. He was a racing driver, strong, and had practiced 72/4 Sat, 9 Mar Chapter 250 kickboxing. How could he be so weak in front of Yannick? Even if he couldn¡¯tpete with ine, how could he be no match for Keh¡¯s men? This kind of suspicion did not dissipate until he arrived at the base. Harper didn¡¯t see Cassandra after ss, and she wasn¡¯t in the canteen at this time either. However, he saw Cassidy and Sofia. They didn¡¯t want to eat out today. Since Cassidy became a fan of Cassandra, those followers around her no longer followed her. Instead, Cassidy and Sofia lived together. Harper carried the te and sat next to them. ¡°Good evening, Cassidy and Sofia Harper wiped his fork with a piece of tissue and said casually, ¡°Why are there only you two? Where is Cassandra?¡± Sofia looked up at him and said, ¡°She goes out to dinner with her boyfriend. How is it possible that they are with us?¡± She thought Harper was very concerned about Cassandra and wanted to talk with Cassandra from time to time. Sofia wondered, ¡®Is he trying to flirt with Cassandra? ¡°However, Cassandra¡¯s boyfriend is Keh. Even if Harper is a prince, but he is at such a young age and attracts so many lovers, he doesn¡¯t deserve Cassandra.¡± Harper¡¯s hand, which was about to pick up the food, suddenly stopped! He thought, ¡®What? ¡®What did she just say? ¡°What boyfriend? Cassie has a boyfriend!! ¡°When did this happen? Who is it? He tried to suppress his anger and asked calmly, ¡°Is Cassandra in love? When did it happen? Why is she so low¨Ckey?¡± He cursed the man who fell in love with Cassie in his heart. 07:24 Sat, 9 Mar Chapter 250 But he had to fake a smile. Seeing that he was so concerned about Cassandra, Cassidy couldn¡¯t help but ask, ¡°Harper, do your like Cassandra? Otherwise, why are you always asking about her?¡± Harper coughed violently. It took him a while to calm it. Cassidy said, ¡°Calm down. There are so many people who like Cassandra, and you¡¯re not the only one.¡± Everyone knew Cassandra¡¯s name and was asking for her information after the friendship night Those who liked watching variety shows knew Cassandra¡¯s identity, and those who didn¡¯t like it were rarely seen on the Inte. Therefore, there were countless people who came to ask Cassidy and Sofia about Cassandra¡¯s preferences every day. There were already many people who came to them today. Harper said. ¡°I think¡­ You misunderstood me. My feelings for Cassandra are the same as that of Sofia. I am also a fan of Samantha, but I¡¯m a new fan, so it¡¯s inevitable to be more enthusiastic. Actually, there was nothing wrong. He was Cassie¡¯s brother. How could he not like her? But he couldn¡¯t tell the truth. He might as well pretend to be a fan and get closer to Cassie. When Sofia heard that Harper was Samantha¡¯s new fan, her eyes lit up! ¡°Do you also like Samantha?¡± Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. Harper was secretly happy and nodded, pretending to be excited. SEND GIFT ´¨ Chapter 251 Chapter 251 97% ¡°Yeah, I¡¯ve been listening to the songs she wrote recently. I really like them, but most of my feelings are heartbreaking¡± Harper didn¡¯t lie. He had been listening to all the songs written by Samantha recently, and the more he heard them, the more distressed he felt. It was because he listened too much that he eagerly wanted toe to Cassandra as soon as possible. ¡°Yeah, that¡¯s right. Cassandra is miserable. Her biological parents and Miranda are the worst. How can they treat Cassandra like this? Fortunately, Cassandra has seen it clearly long ago. She is now an adult, and the time when she needs family affection has passed. Now she doesn¡¯t need family affection for a long time. But with her boyfriend now, Cassandra will definitely have a better future.¡± Sofia seemed to find a good topic. As long as she talked about Cassandra, she would go on and on. Harper listened very carefully, but the more he heard, the more heartache he felt. Especially when Sofia said that her biological parents were the worst. No matter who she was talking about, Cassie¡¯s biological parents were also his parents. It seemed too much to say that. He exined in a low voice, ¡°Maybe it¡¯s for some reason.¡± Sofia put down her fork and looked a little unhappy. ¡°Are you taking Cassandra¡¯s father¡¯s side? Then you are not Cassandra¡¯s fan!¡± After saying that, she whipped around and left. What Sofia didn¡¯t know was that Benjamin was not Cassandra¡¯s biological father at all, so they were not talking about the same person. No one in the circle knew that Cassandra was from the main Yates family, so she still thought that Benjamin was Cassandra¡¯s biological father. ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org . Sofia couldn¡¯t bear anyone speaking for that trash. How dare Harper say that he was a new fan? How could he speak for them? She would never talk to such people again. Cassidy had no choice but to get up. After thinking for a while, she said seriously, ¡°If you are really Samantha¡¯s fan, you should know her background. If not, just search for Yulissa¡¯s letter of apology. Maybe you won¡¯t say that her biological parents have difficulties. Then you will understand why. Sofia is so angry.¡± Harper was a little confused and felt that something bad had happened. He knew that Cassandra was Samantha by ident and didn¡¯t know much about her. ??? 07:24 Sat, 9 Mar Chapter 251 Harper had read Samantha¡¯s every Twitter message and listened to every song. He thought¡­ He took out his phone and searched it ording to what Cassidy said. It was a letter of apology from Yulissa. The more he read it, the more trembling his body became. Until the end, he didn¡¯t know how he got out of the canteen. But someone said that the neer to the traditional medicine major left the canteen in tears. ¡°How are you going to spend the weekend?¡± Keh handed the water to Cassandra and said gently. Cassandra said, ¡°Well, I¡¯m going to Whitecrane Hall to develop a new drug.¡± Hugo said that he had got the herbs she wanted and could make new medicine. Keh was a little disappointed. He asked, ¡°Then can I go with you?¡± Cassandra tilted her head and looked at Keh. ¡°Keh, don¡¯t you have work?¡± It was said that the lights of the Zelinski Group were always thest to go out in this city. Why was the Zelinski Group so leisurely now? ¡°Of course, I also have weekends like you. Keh took it for granted. Who said the boss didn¡¯t have a rest? Now he felt that it was simply wonderful to take a rest. ¡°Keh, do you know that distance produces beauty?¡± Cassandra couldn¡¯t help asking. It was the first time she had seen Keh so clingy, but probably no one in Drieso had ever seen him like this. It was amazing! ¡°I don¡¯t know. Probably distance doesn¡¯t not only produce beauty but also the third person.¡± Keh didn¡¯t believe in the saying. It was not easy to have a girlfriend. He would be with her every day. Cassandra was speechless. ¡°Are you so unconfident in yourself?¡± Cassandra asked. 07:24 Sat, 9 Mar Chapter 251 Keh said, ¡°It¡¯s not a matter of confidence. I just want to be with you.¡± Frankly speaking, he was just a little unconfident. As Jeremiah said, there were many young men at Juset University, including good¨Clooking and rich ones. If he didn¡¯t keep a strict eye on Cassandra, what if she was seduced by some handsome man? Therefore, there must be no such situation. ¡°Okay, whatever. Let¡¯s go tomorrow morning.¡± Cassandra finallypromised. Anyway, what she could do? She thought, ¡®I chose him, so I have to spoil him. How could I quit?¡± Keh smiled contentedly. Early Saturday morning. Keh knocked on Cassandra¡¯s door and Hugo opened it. Hugo had plenty of time today, so he came to cook for Cassandra. Unexpectedly, someone would come so early, and it was Keh. Hugo asked, ¡°Good morning, Keh. What can I do for you?¡± Keh had already stepped into the house and said in a normal tone, ¡°Hugo, good morning. ¡°I¡¯m here to pick up Cassandra. Is she awake?¡± I¡¯m awake.¡± As soon as Cassandra went downstairs, she heard Keh¡¯s voice. She thought, ¡®He is too early. Keh smiled and walked to the stairwell. ¡°Just in time, I prepared breakfast for you. You can eat first.¡± Hugo was rendered speechless. He wondered, ¡°Why did you prepare breakfast for Cassandra? What about the breakfast I prepared?¡® Cassandra looked at him and then at Hugo. ¡°Hugo made breakfast. You can eat it.¡± That meant that they exchanged their breakfast. ¡°Okay.¡± Keh looked at Hugo and said, ¡°Thank you so much. Keh walked to the restaurant familiarly. Hugo looked at Cassandra with a confused expression on his face. ¡°Ms. Yates, what¡¯s going on?¡± Cassandra said, ¡°Let me introduce him to you. That¡¯s my boyfriend, Keh.¡± Hugo was dumbfounded. | Chapter 251 He thought, ¡®So, it was Keh who bothered her the other day? ¡°What did I do? I talked to her? I should not have talked to her! But Keh is eptable. There is nothing wrong with him except that he is a little old. ¡°After all, although he is violent, Cassandra doesn¡¯t give in. Even if she couldn¡¯t beat him, she could subdue him with a single needle. In the end, no one would know who the winner is.¡± When Keh heard this in the dining room, his smile became more obvious. Hugo asked. ¡°Ms. Yates, when did you get together?¡± ¡°It¡¯s the night you talked to me.¡± Cassandra thought for a moment and replied. Hugo didn¡¯t know what to say. Hugo felt ufortable now and wondered if he could return to that day and take back what he said. He expected someone to confess his love for Cassandra, but he didn¡¯t expect Cassandra to agree so soon! It was unexpected. Keh said, ¡°Hugo, you are Cassandra¡¯s family. You¡¯re wee to supervise me in the future. As long as I treat her badly, you can kick me out at any time.¡± This sentence stunned Hugo, but he epted it with pleasure. Hugo thought, ¡°That¡¯s more like it!¡± SEND GIFT ||| O Chapter 252 Chapter 252 Harper had been upset for a whole day. He didn¡¯t cheer up until Saturday night. Harper called Theodore and said, ¡°Do you have any men in Clusia? Can you arrange for some men to help me?¡± Theodore asked, ¡°What are you going to do?¡± Harper didn¡¯t say anything. After a long time, he said. ¡°Theodore, I don¡¯t have the courage to let Cassie admit that she is our family member anymore. I¡¯m not worthy of it. None of us is worthy of iL In the crucial 18 years of Cassandra¡¯s life, no one cared about her. When she returned to Benjamin¡¯s family at the age of 18, she was bullied and kidnapped. Cassandra had achieved sess now. They had no right to show up in front of her. Theodore said in a deep voice. ¡°Do you know what you¡¯re talking about? Do you know how important Cassie is to Dad and Mom?¡± ¡°I know it, but do you think that I¡¯m unwilling to let Cassie be our family member? Have we ever learned about Cassie! We have never tried to learn about her. Wee here just because she looks like mom. Have we investigated her? Do we know what she has suffered these years? What were we doing when she needed us most?!¡± Harper¡¯s mind was full of Yulissa¡¯s confession. Every word was hideous. Harper thought, ¡®Cassie is an adult. Sofia said that Cassie wasn¡¯t at the age anymore when she needed kinship. There is no need for us to show up in front of her. We will just make her feel disturbed. Harper even had the impulse to give up on letting Cassandra admit that she was their family member. He just wanted to stay beside her quietly. ¡°Harper, have you gotten to know anything? Tell me.¡± ¡°I¡¯ll send it to you. You¡¯d better investigate it carefully before talking about this.¡± Harper hung up the phone and shared all the things he saw in their chat group. It turned out that the reason why thements on Twitter about Samantha were so peaceful was that her fans wanted to give her a piece of purend. Thus, all thements about Benjamin¡¯s family had been wiped out by her fans together. Therefore, Harper, who only had watched Samantha¡¯s Twitter, didn¡¯t get to know anything at all. The first one who called Harper was Vincent. ¡°Harper, give me the address. I¡¯ll go there after I get off the ne.¡± O 07:24 Sat, 9 Mar uu Chapter 252 ¡°Are you at the airport?¡± Harper asked. ¡°Yeah.

However, when he saw thements on Twitter, he immediately changed his flight. He was lucky today. Thest first¨Css cabin was still on sale. He paid for it before the ticket was not avable. His luggage could be transferred to himter. He needed to go to Clusia first. Harper sent the address to Vincent and ignored him. Keh and Cassandra walked out of Whitecrane Hall. They didn¡¯t know where to go when they got in the car. Keh asked, ¡°Where are we going?¡± It was 8 p.m. It was still early. Cassandra didn¡¯t need to go home so early. ¡°I don¡¯t know. You¡¯re the boss.¡± Cassandra was reluctant to go back so early. ¡°Let¡¯s go to the movie and have a midnight snack before going home.¡± Keh had browsed many posts. The necessary itineraries for going out with girlfriends were watching movies, going to the amusement parks, eating midnight snacks, or taking girlfriends to have fun. It was not that hot in fall. They could go camping in the mountains. ¡°Okay, it¡¯s up to you. Cassandra rubbed her eyebrows. Keh noticed that something was wrong with Cassandra. He immediately asked, ¡°What¡¯s the matter? Are you feeling unwell?¡± ¡°It¡¯s not that serious. My eyes are a little sore. Maybe I was too concentrated today. She had been adjusting the potion and mixing it up, so she had overused her eyes. ¡°Let¡¯s skip the movie and go back to rest. You have focused on your experiment today, which hurts your eyes.¡± Keh was worried. Keh thought, ¡®How could I forget that Cass had been busy all day and should have a rest?¡® ¡°It¡¯s okay. It¡¯ll be a while from here to the cinema. I¡¯ll close my eyes and have a rest. Wake me up when we arrive.¡± ¡°Really?¡± ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter. Don¡¯t be so exaggerated. Then Cassandra closed her eyes and rested. 4 07:24 Sat, 9 Mar. Chapter 252 When Cassandra opened her eyes again, she found that they didn¡¯t go to the cinema. They were in front of her house, but the car hadn¡¯t been parked in the garage yet. She asked in confusion, ¡°Why were we back? Didn¡¯t we go to the movies?¡± ¡°Go home and have a good rest today. I¡¯ll take you out to have fun tomorrow.¡± Anyway, they didn¡¯t need to go to Whitecrane Hall tomorrow. They could go to the moviest anytime. There was no need for them to go to the movies today. ¡°All right.¡± Now that they had arrived home, Cassandra could say nothing else. ¡°Get door t of the car. I¡¯ll take you home.¡± Keh got out of the car and opened the p for Cassandra. After Keh entered the house, he went straight to the kitchen and prepared some food for Cassandra. Cassandra came up to him and asked, ¡°What are you doing?¡± ¡°I¡¯ll prepare something for you. You can eat it when you are hungry. I will also make drinks for you. Take a good rest.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t bother. I won¡¯t get up in the middle of the night.¡± Cassandra tried to stop him but failed. ¡°You didn¡¯t eat much tonight and focused on the experiment. I can¡¯t help you with the experiment, but I can take care of you At dinner, Cassandra was busy calcting the experimental data. He couldn¡¯t help or make trouble for her. Cassandra withdrew her hand and felt warm in her heart. She was hungry indeed. Originally, she nned to have midnight snacks after watching the movie. However, now that she hade back, she was reluctant to cook. However, Keh was so considerate. He noticed that she didn¡¯t eat much and predicted that she might get up in the middle of the night. Keh cooked in the kitchen for more than an hour and finally prepared two dishes, soup, a fruit. tter, and drinks. But by the time he came out, Cassandra was asleep. He shook his head affectionately, put the food in the kitchen, took off his apron, walked forward, and picked up andra. Cassandra was born to be sensitive. She woke up as soon as Keh picked her up.

He went upstairs and joked, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I won¡¯t do anything to you. You are too tired today. Let me carry you up to rest.¡± Cassandra felt shy. She unconsciously put her arms around Keh¡¯s neck.

He didn¡¯t go to Cassandra¡¯s room to wake her up but went straight into the kitchen. He felt satisfied when he saw the empty dishes in the sink. Cassandra got up in the middle of the night and ate the food he cooked. Keh put down the breakfast, tied an apron, put on gloves, and washed the dishes. When he was about to take off the apron, Cassandra went downstairs. ¡°Keh, why did you get up so early?¡± When Cassandra went downstairs, she thought she was the first one to get up. Unexpectedly, Keh had gotten up already and was doing housework in the kitchen. Keh cleaned up the kitchen and handed Cassandra the breakfast. ¡°Let¡¯s go out to have fun after breakfast.¡± Cassandra took the breakfast and looked at him. ¡°Keh, is it true that Zelinski Group hasn¡¯t gone bankrupt? You can tell me if you have any difficulties.¡± Keh was so idle that she felt that he was ying the victim in front of her. ¡°Cass, are you going to keep me as a toy boy?¡± Keh smiled. It could be seen that he was very happy. Cassandra was stuck for words. How did hee to such a conclusion? ¡°Don¡¯t worry, Cass. Even without Zelinski Group, I can let you live a carefree life. Thus, there is no need for you to worry about me being penniless and unable to support you.¡± Keh¡¯s gaze was softer than spring breezes and more romantic than summer flowers. Cassandra was involuntarily stunned. She suddenly withdrew her gaze and said in embarrassment, ¡°I¡¯m not worried about you. I don¡¯tck money.¡± Keh teased, ¡°You¡¯re right. You¡¯re the famous miracle doctor Faye, the famous hacker Emery, the famous entrepreneur ine, and the famous lyricist Samantha. How can you be short of money? Even the consultation fee for Faye is 2 billion dors once.¡± Cassandra felt embarrassed and avoided his gaze. She said, ¡°Before I took your order, I had back to Benjamin¡¯s family.

I thought that you wouldn¡¯t mind if I dyed it for one or two days. To my surprise, you raised the consultation fee. Although I was not short of money, I wouldn¡¯t miss the chance to earn money.¡± Originally, Cassandra wanted to treat the patient for free. However, if a stranger suddenly showed kindness to Keh and saved his man not for money or repayment, it would be unjustifiable and even make Keh suspect that she had ulterior motives. Thus, Cassandra charged for it. As for the auction of the telegraph nt, it was because Cassandra had cut off her past, so the invitations to Whitecrane Hall and Faye all had been rejected. It was inappropriate for Cassandra to ask for the invitations again, so she asked Keh to attend it. However, it was Kayden who paid for the telegraph nt. Keh just ran errands for it. Keh smiled and thought, ¡®I see. ¡°Cass received my order after she left Benjamin¡¯s family at Yulissa¡¯s 18th birthday celebration. ¡°It must be fate between Cass and me! ¡°By the way, I put the money you transferred to me on a separate card.

Dr. Quirke deserves it. Keep it. I will be angry if you give it to me.¡± Keh just hired Dr. Quirke to treat Kayden. It was Keh¡¯s idea to raise the consultation fee because Kayden¡¯s condition was serious at that time. Keh had no choice but to raise the consultation fee to let Fayee earlier. However, after Keh knew that Faye Quirke was Cassandra, he thought that the consultation fee was not enough. He could have doubled it. Keh decided to transfer more money to Cassandra and give her more pocket money. ¡°Well,e to me when you need it.¡± Keh was stuck for words and thought, ¡°Then I won¡¯t need it. ¡®Cass is so adorable. She collected the consultation fee and saved it separately. Did she want to give. it to me one day?¡± 2/1 07:24 Sal, 9 Mar Chapter 253 Keh¡¯s heart suddenly sank.

I was very excited when I knew that I was in the same ss as you, so I might act a little drastically, but it was just because I saw my idol,¡± Harper knew that Cassandra was very defensive against him. He didn¡¯t know what to do. If he continued to approach her as usual, he might be regarded as a madman or even be beaten. It didn¡¯t matter if he was beaten. The most fearful thing was that she would regard him as an enemy. If so, he might go crazy. Therefore, Harper had to exin his behavior in a different way. If he were her fan, it might make sense. Vincent, who was next to Harper, seemed a little nervous, but Vincent said in a pleasant voice, ¡®Hello, Cassandra. I¡¯m Harper¡¯s brother.¡± Keh narrowed his eyes and looked at Vincent and Harper up and down. ¡°Harper, even if you are Samantha¡¯s fan, I am Cassandra in daily life. I hope you can distinguish my identities.¡± What Harper had done wasn¡¯t a big deal. He was just too enthusiastic, which made her a little disgusted. Now that Harper was Samantha¡¯s fan, it could make sense. But it just made sense barely. ¡°Cass, who are they?¡± Keh took Cassandra¡¯s hand and looked at her.

Keh greeted Vincent. ¡°Nice to meet you, Mr. Yates.¡± Vincent couldn¡¯t pretend not to know Keh. Vincent reached out his hand and said, ¡°Mr. Zelinski, long time no see.¡± Keh shook hands with Vincent symbolically. Cassandra was curious and asked, ¡°Do you know him?¡± ¡°Yes, I cooperated with Mr. Yates before. Mr. Yates is the adopted son of Zosteylor¡¯s royal family. He and his big brother have made great achievements in business. 20% of Zosteylor¡¯s GDP is almost. provided by theirpany.¡± Keh had cooperated with Vincent, but just once. The reason why Keh remembered it was because he found that Harper looked like Zosteylor¡¯s royal family very much, so Keh guessed it Vincent said politely, ¡°Thank you for your praise, Mr. Zelinski. You¡¯re a bigwig in the business. My. big brother and I will need your help in the future.¡± Cassandra.couldn¡¯t help rolling her eyes. They were so hypocritical. *Keh, I want to y Turbo Drop. Cassandra suddenly looked up at Turbo Drop not far away. She was interested in it. Keh was stuck for words. Keh thought, ¡®Why did Cass choose such an exciting activity from the very beginning?¡± Harper and Vincent also looked at Turbo Drop. They didn¡¯t know what they could say. ¡°Harper, your brother and you must have other schedules. We will get out of your hair first. Cassandra dragged Keh to Turbo Drop andpletely ignored Harper and Vincent. Harper and Vincent, who were left behind, looked at each other helplessly. Harper said frustrated, ¡°Vincent, what should we do? I don¡¯t know what is going wrong. Cassie dislikes me.¡± Vincent also noticed that Cassandra was indifferent to others but treated Keh gently. 07:25 Sat, 9 Mar u uu Chapter 254 Maybe Cassandra gave all her gentleness to someone she knew well.

After the staff fixed the safety rope for Cassandra, Keh checked it again and again. He was relieved after confirming that there was no problem. ¡°Let¡¯s go. It could be seen that Cassandra was very happy and even couldn¡¯t wait to feel the motion of free fall. Turbo Drop swung back and forth twice and even stopped in the middle. The moment of waiting to fall was very thrilling. ¡°Wow!¡± Cassandra couldn¡¯t help shouting. When Cassandra came down from Turbo Drop, her eyebrows were filled with joy. She felt so great. It was the first time that Keh saw her so happy. He couldn¡¯t help but ask, ¡°Are you happy?¡± ¡°Yeah, a little.¡± Maybe it was because her mood had changed. When she was with Keh, it was easy for her to rx and let go of her guard. There was no need for her to be afraid that he would plot against her. Therefore, she would naturally be gentle.

Vincent, please find a solution quickly. Look at Keh. He is not a good person. When he¡¯s with Cassie, he may take advantage of her.¡± Vincent was stuck for words. Of course, Vincent knew that Harper was right, but there was no chance for Vincent to intervene! SEND GIFT I 0 Chapter 255 Chapter 255 Keh and Cassandra didn¡¯t leave the amusement park until 3 p.m. After a simple theal in the park, they went to watch a movie. It was lunchtime when the movie, ended. Cassandra¡¯s stomach was rumbling. She was hungry. Keh said as he opened the car door for Cassandra, ¡°Let¡¯s go to have lunch. I know a restaurant that offers delicious steak. Let¡¯s try it together, and I¡¯ve booked a table.¡± ¡°Okay, I haven¡¯t eaten steak for a long time.¡± Cassandra wasn¡¯t fussy about her food. If it tasted good, she would eat more. If it tasted bad, she would eat less. Instead of being fussy about her food, it was better to discard the unptable and eat more delicacies. Now that Keh said it was delicious, it should be delicious. She could go to have a try. After arriving at the restaurant, Cassandra got off and found that it was a steak restaurant, which was like an oil painting. It was a pure white wooden house and faced the bustling city scenery. It was surrounded by fresh green nts outside. The restaurant was also in a ssic style. There were old- fashioned copper tablemps, ceiling fans, and delicate flowers. One might feel like they went back to the old days in there. ¡°The architecture here is in a very ssic style.¡± Keh liked it very much. It was rare. ¡°Let¡¯s go in.¡± ¡°Wee.¡± The waiter at the door saluted them and opened the door for them. The manager of the restaurant greeted them and said, ¡°Mr. Zelinski, wee!¡± The manager greeted warmly, ¡°The private room you booked is ready. May I serve the dishes now?¡± ¡°Okay, please serve for us.¡± After sitting in the private room, Keh began to exin, ¡°I ordered some dishes ording to your taste and added a few signature dishes. Try them first. If you don¡¯t like them, I will change. them for you.¡± ¡°Okay.¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t take it seriously. Soon the appetizers were served, including caviar, cocktail cups, creamed chicken pastries, and soup. After the appetizer, the manager served the main course and dessert. 4 25 Sat, Chapter 255 Cassandra couldn¡¯t help but feel that Keh knew her very well. Every dish seemed to be chosen for her, which was very suitable for her taste. Cassandra ate happily and contentedly. Suddenly, the door of the private room was opened. The voice sounded like Kayden. ¡°I told you that Keh was here.¡± When Kayden saw the people in the room, the smile disappeared on Kayden¡¯s face immediately. Kayden didn¡¯t expect Cassandra to be here. ¡°Cassie¡­¡± Yannick said that Keh had been with Cassie. It seemed that it was true. Behind Kayden were Maximilian, Denzel, Yasmine, Devin, and Jessica. ¡°The manager said that you were having lunch here. We just finished eating, so we came here to say hello to you.¡± But Kayden didn¡¯t expect it to be so awkward. Keh greeted them tonelessly. ¡°Hello, everyone. Although Keh¡¯s tone was aloof, they didn¡¯t take it seriously. With Keh¡¯s identity, even if Keh ignored them, it made sense. Kayden was Keh¡¯s friend, so Keh respected them very much. Cassandra¡¯s face clouded over slightly. She didn¡¯t say anything. Maximilian¡¯s voice sounded like he had recovered. He walked towards Cassandra and said awkwardly, ¡®Cassie, you¡¯re here too. Do you like the dishes here? How about- Cassandra interrupted him and said in a cold voice, ¡°I like the dishes here. Keh and I have finished our meals. We have other things to deal with and would like to leave first.¡± Maximilian¡¯s gaze was more sincere than Benjamin¡¯s, but Cassandra would not be moved by kinship again. ¡°Cassie, why are you so reluctant to see me? I¡¯m your grandpa. I want to exin many things to you. Can you give me a chance?¡± Maximilian had been intimidating in the business for half a century, but now he humbly wanted Cassandra to listen to him. Maximilian knew that his daughter¨Cinw and grandchildren all failed to persuade Cassandra. Keh was having lunch here, so Maximilian wanted Keh to mediate between them. Unexpectedly, they met Cassandra directly. Hearing Cassandra¡¯s indifferent tone, Maximilian couldn¡¯t stand it. 4 Chapter 25.5 ¡°I¡¯m sorry for making you pass out with anger before. I¡¯ve sincerely apologized to Kayden and Thomas. To avoid you bing emotional again, I didn¡¯t apologize to you in person. If you want to pursue this matter, tell me whatever you want.¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t want an exnation. ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org . ¡°I don¡¯t care about this. It¡¯s not your fault. It was because I didn¡¯t follow the doctor¡¯s advice. Thus, it has nothing to do with you. What I want to say is why we got you lost.¡± Maximilian knew that his daughter¨C inw didn¡¯t exin this matter clearly, 50 Cassandra misunderstood them. ¡°I don¡¯t want to hear it. I¡¯m living a good life now. I have gone to college and have a lot of savings. Keh paid me 2 billion dors as the consultation fee to save Kayden. Thus, I don¡¯t need money. I don¡¯t need yourpensation or a family either.¡± In her world, family members were the most likely to betray her, especially the ones rted by blood. ¡°No, that¡¯s not what I meant.¡± Maximilian became emotional again. Denzel hurriedly held Maximilian andforted him softly. ¡°Dad, calm down.¡± Denzel looked at Cassandra with aplicated gaze. ¡°Cassie, what had happened wasplicated. We came to you as soon as we solved it. However, you had disappeared. We have never given up looking for you for so many years.¡± Cassandra said sarcastically, ¡°If you tried your best to find me, you wouldn¡¯t have failed to find me for so many years. Miranda knew that I was fake, but she still took the DNA test of Benjamin and me to find me and brought me home with Leonardo. They were so ungrateful, but they found me. You said that you had never given up. However, as soon as you got my news, you chose your important thing. After finding me, you want me to forget what happened and go back to the Yates family. Don¡¯t you think it¡¯s difficult for me?¡± Denzel was speechless and didn¡¯t know what to say. ¡°No, it¡¯s not like that. Thomas would have an operation and had been pushed into the operating room. We¡­¡± Thomas was sick and would have an operation. Its risk was extremely high. However, at the same. time, they received a message from Cassandra¡¯s father. Thus, as soon as Thomas¡® operation was sessful, they set off. Only Devin was left in the hospital. Even Jessica Went to pick Cassandra up. Cassandra was even more disappointed. Sheughed at herself and said, ¡°So, after being abandoned by my biological parents, I was abandoned again by the so¨Ccalled family members. I see.¡± ¡°It¡¯s not like that. We went there as soon as possible. Denzel still wanted to exin. ¡°Did all of you need to transfuse blood for Thomas? You waited for Thomas outside the operating. 07:25 Sat, 9 Mar Chapter 235 room. When you got my news, you still chose to stay by Thomas¡® side. You never considered that one or two of you could go to find me to avoid the tragedy. You chose Thomas between the two of us. How can you say that you went to find me as soon as possible?¡± It turned out that this was the truth. As expected, the truth made her heartbroken the most. COMMENT Chapter 256 Chapter 256 Cassandra sneered. If possible, she would rather not hear their exnation. She previously thought she was unlucky. Her family went to look for her in the first ce but they failed to find her. However, the truth was that Thomas needed an operation back then. They were all worried about the results and didn¡¯t go look for them immediately. Several hours passed after they learned where she was, but they didn¡¯t care. They didn¡¯t think of her until they learned that Thomas¡® operation was sessful. In the end, she was the one who was abandoned by them. Denzel suddenly became silent. He realized that he shouldn¡¯t have talked like that. Jessica suddenly stood up and said in a choked voice, ¡°Cassie, I don¡¯t know how to exin so you can forgive us. But we never gave up looking for you. It¡¯s all my fault. Please don¡¯t hate your grandpa and others.¡± If someone needed to assume responsibility for Cassandra¡¯s disappearance, she was willing to do so as Thomas¡® mother. If she had asked Maximilian and Denzel to pick up Cassandra immediately, Cassandra would not have suffered for thest 18 years. Cassandra sighed, her eyes full of coldness. ¡°Mrs. Yates, I don¡¯t need anyone to take the me for that. It happened already. There was noing back I just hope that my future life will be better.¡± Perhaps because she had a narrow escape, she was very sensitive to family affection. She didn¡¯t need any family bond at this time. She was satisfied with her current life. She didn¡¯t want to make the same mistakes in this life. ¡°Mrs. Yates, we have other things to do today. Please excuse us. It is inappropriate to talk about something in public,¡± Keh said. He took Cassandra¡¯s hand, got up, and left. Maximilian didn¡¯t react for a moment. Even Kayden didn¡¯t know what to do for a moment. Yasmine watched them leave and suddenly asked, ¡°Kayden, Cassie and Mr. Zelinski¡­¡± ¡°They¡¯re together,¡± Kayden replied. He felt that he did the wrong thing while staring after them. Yasmine¡¯s eyes widened in disbelief. ¡°What? Are they together?¡± 07:25 Sat, 9 Mar u Chapter 256 There was such a big gap between them. How could they be together? Moreover, the Zelinski family wasplicated. Even if Keh was in charge of Zelinski Group now, his father, stepmother, and half¨Cbrother were all evil. If Cassandra was with Keh, she would be in a wolf¡¯s den. They all looked at Kayden and waited for the exact answer. Kayden sighed and replied, ¡°Yes, they¡¯ve been together since the end of Cassie¡¯s summer camp in college. Mr. Zelinski has loved her for eight years. He won¡¯t hurt her.¡± Yasmine was a little annoyed and said bitterly, ¡°It has nothing to do with it. Mr. Zelinski is nine years older than Cassie. Their age gap is too big. And the other members of the Zelinski family are bad. Cassie will be having a hard time. They are not suited to each other!¡± Kayden curled his lip. ¡°Mom, you can¡¯t disapprove of their rtionship just because you think they are not suited to each other. Will Cassie listen to you? We have no right to interfere in their rtionship. If you don¡¯t want Cassie to hate us more, you¡¯d better stay out of it.¡± He shook his head and lost in thought. ¡°I have things to do. I¡¯m going back to the base.¡± Keh took Cassandra back to his vi, not Springmount Townhouse. Cassandra followed him in, absent¨Cminded. She looked up and suddenly found that this was not Hier house. ¡°Why did you bring me here?¡± she asked, looking at Keh nkly. ¡°I saw that you were a little distracted. I didn¡¯t feelfortable leaving you alone at home. So I brought you to my home. You can have a good rest here today,¡± Keh said, gently stroking her head. He didn¡¯t know how tofort her and make her happy, but he would always be there for her. Whenever she needed him, he would be there.. The truth that Denzel told was even more hurtful. It must break Cassandra¡¯s heart. Cassandra smiled bitterly and said, ¡°Keh, I¡¯ll be fine.¡± ¡°Alright. I am so worried about you, Cass. To reassure me, why don¡¯t you stay at my house and let me keep yourpany today?¡± Keh suggested. Cassandra suddenly closed her eyes, exhaled heavily, and then opened her eyes. ¡°Keh, I think you are so good in love. I don¡¯t feel like this is your first time in love.¡± She changed the subject and stopped thinking about those unhappy things. Chapter 2561 Keh was a little embarrassed. ¡°I naturally know it while being with you.¡± Actually, he googled a lot of love skills and even watched shot videos to learn how to pursue a woman and be nice to their girlfriends. He even signed up for some paid courses. When the live streamer suggested in ss that men should ask a woman to give birth to their children so that she could stay with them. He was so angry that he blocked the streamer¡¯s ount decisively. In order not to let the man. continue to mislead others, Keh asked someone from hispany¡¯s technology department to delete the man¡¯s ount. After that, he bought a lot of books and romance novels that young people liked. Otherwise, how could he advance in love and keep Cassandra interested without learning? Cassandra rocked withughter. Keh looked very happy and finally grinned. ¡°Thank you, Keh!¡± Cassandra said. Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. She had no idea what Keh had said or which of his expressions made herugh aloud. She was in a better mood now. ¡°Cass, let¡¯s discuss it. Can you call me by my nickname?¡± Keh suddenly said. He was her boyfriend now. Shouldn¡¯t she address him more intimately? So others would know they were a couple. ¡®Doesn¡¯t Keh sound good to you?¡± Cassandra asked, a little confused. Keh was quite concerned with how Cassandra addressed him. It was too formal for her to address him Mr. Zelinski, so she called him Keh directly. But now he was not pleased with it. ¡°Okay, but it sounds too impolite. Aren¡¯t we together now? Shouldn¡¯t you address me by my nickname?¡± Keh argued. ¡°Well, you¡¯re right. Cassandra nodded in agreement. ¡°How about I call you Cassie or baby?¡± Keh asked. Cassandra thought, ¡®Baby? Ew, gross!¡± She couldn¡¯t bear to refuse Keh when she saw his sincere eyes. ¡°Well, I prefer Cassie,¡± she hesitated. Keh looked a little disappointed, but he was indeed overjoyed. He wanted to call Cassandra Cassie for many years. Now, he could call her Cassie openly. How could he not be unhappy? D Sat, 9 Mal Clupter 256 ¡°Cassie, what are you going to call me?¡± Keh asked, looking at Cassandra expectantly. ¡°Kenny?¡± Cassandra asked tentatively. Ìï SEND GIFT 0 COMMENT Chapter 257 Chapter 257 Sure enough, Keh was not satisfied with it. Although he was happy no matter what Cassandra called him, he just wanted it to be special. ¡°Neither of them are good. Think it over,¡± Keh said. Cassandra was rendered speechless. It wouldn¡¯t be that difficult to think of a n worth hundreds of billions of dors. ¡°What do you think? What would you like me to call you?¡± Cassandra asked. She thought ¡°Ken¡± would be too cheesy, so she didn¡¯t bring it up. ¡°Dear boyfriend, Ken¡­¡± Actually, Keh wanted Cassandra to call him Honey most. However, Cassandra was too young to realize it. She was speechless for a moment. ¡°I¡¯ll call you Ken then,¡± she suddenly said. It turned out that was Keh¡¯s type. ¡°Okay,¡± Keh replied, looking at Cassandra with expectation. Cassandra was a little confused, wondering what he wanted. ¡°Cassie!¡± Keh called. ¡°Yes?¡± Cassandra was stunned. ¡°Cassie!¡± he called again. ¡°I¡¯m here,¡± she replied. Keh held her in his arms gently as if he was holding an invaluable treasure. ¡°Ken, I want to drink some water,¡± Cassandra said, spoiling the mood. Keh suddenly recalled that he first met Cassandra eight years ago. She was very sensible and kind. Although she lived a poor life, there was hope in her eyes. She saved his life at the time butter wanted to kick him out. It was not because she disliked him. She simply didn¡¯t have enough money to support another person. Jeremiah refused to leave. Shepromised and took him in. However, she would break down crying if she took another person in. At that time, he had only 400 dors in cash. He bought Cassandra a lot of shrimp and gave her the rest of the money. Therefore, he was able to stay with her for a period. Every time he heard her call him Ken, he felt warm in his heart and he was rejuvenated by new hope. Therefore, he really wanted to hear her call him Ken again. He didn¡¯t expect her to agree so quickly. Given Cassandra¡¯s current temper, she might refuse him. He was ready to beg her to agree, but he didn¡¯t have to. Keh chuckled and touched the tip of her nose gently with his forefinger. ¡°Wait, I¡¯ll make a ss of juice for you,¡± she said. Before Cassandra had any dessert, the Yates family suddenly showed up and spoiled her mood. She couldn¡¯t eat them at this time, but she could drink a ss of juice. ¡°Okay. Thanks,¡± she said. This is property ? of N?velDrama.Org. While making juice, Keh chose a photo of Cassandra¡¯s back from his phone and shared it on Instagram with the caption, ¡°My love, forever!¡± Then he handed the ss of juice to Cassandra with satisfaction. ¡°Would you like to go upstairs and have a rest? I¡¯ll drive you to school tomorrow morning,¡± Keh said, looking at the time. It was time for Cassandra to rest. ¡°Yes, please,¡± Cassandra replied. Keh took Cassandra to her room and opened the door for her. The wall featured a blue gradient, which made people feel at ease. The room was spacious and tidy, with a big Winnie¨Cthe¨CPooh on the bed. Cassandra was stunned. She walked into the room and held the Winnie¨Cthe¨CPooh in her arms. ¡°Why is there a Winnie¨Cthe¨CPooh in the room?¡± she asked. ¡°I noticed you really liked the bear on your apron, so I asked Yannick to get a Winnie¨Cthe- Pooh and put it on the bed. It will keep your apany you if you spend the night here,¡± Keh replied. Of course, he couldn¡¯t tell her more about what was going through his head. ¡°Thank you,¡± Cassandra said. She was fond of the bear. It was huge. ¡°We¡¯re lovers. You don¡¯t need to thank me.¡± Keh walked in front of her and patted the Winnie¨Cthe¨C Pooh on the head, as if he were saying, ¡°She¡¯s the most important person to me. Please keep her company.¡± After Keh returned to his room, he began to check his phone slowly. He found that a lot of people left theirments. He smirked and clicked on them. Yannick: [Nobody canpete with you when you begin to show your affection!] Ethan: [Congrattions, Mr. Zelinski! You finally have the woman you always wanted. By the way, Yannick, are you courting death?¡® Kayden: [Keh, be nice to Cassie.] Thomas: [Keh, is this woman Cassie? Are you really with her?] A realty CEO: [Is this Mr. Zelinski¡¯s Instagram ount? Could it be his ount is stolen?] President of a bank: [Mr. Zelinski, have you got a wife?] A real estate developer: [Congrattions, Mr. Zelinski! You finally found the love of your life. When will you introduce your new girlfriend to us?] When Keh came back to the country and wanted to have further contact with Cassandra, he applied for an Instagram ount. Yannick also invited many business partners to follow him on Instagram. Usually, Keh never posted anything on Instagram. Even when they decided to be together, he didn¡¯t post it. This was the first time he posted a photo on it. It caused an uproar among his followers. They all thought it was unbelievable. Keh, the world¡¯s richest man, was cruel and indit. How could he post a photo announcing he had a girlfriend? Most importantly, he replied to them one by one. Except for Yannick and the real estate developer, everyone¡¯sments were simple. Keh: [Yannick, you seem to be idle. Double your training from tomorrow on. Quadruple it if you dare to retort.] Keh replied to the real estate developer: [I¡¯ll introduce her to you when we meet another day.] Cassandra had no idea about it. She fell asleep with peace of mind. When Jeremiah saw Keh¡¯s Instagram, he scolded Keh for being shameless in the base! The others didn¡¯t know about it. How could he not know? It took Keh great effort to make ine call him Ken. In Jeremiah¡¯s opinion, he had bad intentions towards ine back then. Jeremiah thought, ¡®He knew that ine lost her memory, but he still tricked her into calling him Ken! ¡®Shame on him! ¡®He¡¯s so brazen!¡® Yannick couldn¡¯t help but ask curiously, ¡°What did my boss do to make you so angry?¡± His boss did nothing but show off his love. But why did Jeremiah scold him for a long time? ¡°Keh always bullies ine because she was young. ine is so kind. How dare he deceive her?¡± Jeremiah replied. Yannick¡¯s eyes shone with excitement. He realized there was a story behind it. He kept asking Jeremiah and gossiping with him all night. It was already dawn when they ended their conversation. At the thought of double training today, he suddenly wanted to retire early. ***** Keh got up at 6 o¡¯clock and made breakfast for Cassandra. When he was in the middle of it, Cassandra came downstairs. ¡°Ken, you didn¡¯t have to get up so early to make breakfast. We can go out for breakfast,¡± she said. She slept early and soundly the night before. She slept early and soundly the night before. Except for dreaming of a strange person, she had the best sleep of the year. ¡°The breakfast in the restaurant is not as good as the one I made. Didn¡¯t you say that the food I made was to your taste?¡± Keh replied. Keh wished he could cook three meals for her a day, but he didn¡¯t have enough time to cook for her. Anyway, he didn¡¯t want to be deprived of the right to make her breakfast. Chapter 258 Chapter 258 ¡°Moreover, I like cooking for you. Please satisfy my wish,¡± Keh said. The passion in his eyes made Cassandra not bear to refuse him. It seems that what happened yesterday was just an illusion when he was around. Especially when she saw Jeremiah¡¯s message this morning, her heart seemed to be healed by him. [ine, Keh is such a jerk. Why don¡¯t you consider dating someone else? He¡¯s not a good match for you.] [I know many outstanding young men who are only two or three years older than you. I¡¯ll introduce them to you. You can choose better. Keh is nine years older than you, and he will age faster than you!] [There is a generation gap when your ages are three years apart. Look, there will be three generation gaps between Keh and you. How can you get along well with each other in the future?] [What¡¯s more, he showed off his affection on Instagram! Shame on him!] ***** When she saw the post, she gave him a thumbs¨Cup anonymously. Jeremiah sensed it and immediately reply her with an ellipses. However, Cassandra ignored him. It seemed that the training was not intense enough for Jeremiah, so he still had free time to swipe his phone. He needed more training. When she went downstairs, she saw Keh cooking breakfast for her. At that moment, she didn¡¯t feel her family members were that important. She would be happy to have him only. When they finished breakfast and were about to walk out of the door, their phones rang at the same time. ¡°Hello?¡± ¡°There¡¯s an urgent task, Go back to the base immediately and get Falcon Special Operation Force ready to go,¡± Keh¡¯s supervisormanded. ¡°Got it!¡± Keh replied seriously. Cassandra also received an urgent task. The operation required technical support from the information security department, so she was called to assemble immediately. Others outside Drieso also needed to rush to the designated ce as soon as possible. They looked at each other and said in unison, ¡°It¡¯s an urgent task.¡± ¡°I¡¯ll drive to the National Security Bureau by myself. You can go back to the base now,¡± Cassandra said in a deep voice. ¡°All right. There¡¯s no time to lose,¡± Keh replied, looking very serious. ¡°Okay,¡± Cassandra echoed. After they said goodbye to each other, Cassandra drove straight to the National Security Bureau. When she arrived at the Director¡¯s Office, she found she was a littlete. Her team members from Drieso had already arrived. When Spark saw Cassandraing in, he hurriedly stepped forward and greeted her. ¡°Emery, long time no see.¡± ¡°Long time no see,¡± Cassandra replied. ¡°Well, stop saying hi to each other. There is a very urgent task that needs you to work with the Falcon Special Operations Force,¡± Daniel interrupted. It was so urgent that they needed to leave right away. ¡°Yes, sir!¡± they answered in unison decisively. 2/6 assau same urgent task as Keh this morning. ¡°You need to hand in your mobile phones when you perform the task, and we will hand out cell phones for your use,¡± Daniel said. He wanted to collect their phones right away, but he decided to do so at the destination because he still needed to collect the phones of other members at that time. Daniel didn¡¯t exin what the task was, ready to leave with them. ¡°Director Walker, I didn¡¯t bring a change of clothes,¡± Cassandra suddenly said. No one told her that she needed to leave Drieso to perform a task. She previously thought it could be solved in Drieso, so she drove here without any luggage. Daniel was stunned and then realized that Emery didn¡¯t bring anything. ¡°So what do you do now? The ne will take off in an hour. We¡¯re going to fly in Falcon Special Operations Force¡¯s ne,¡± he said. ¡°Are we setting off from the airport or Falcon Special Operations¡® base?¡± Cassandra asked. ¡°Falcon Special Operations Force¡¯s base,¡± Daniel replied. ¡°I see,¡± Cassandra replied. She called Hugo and asked him to put herptop and two changes of clothes into her suitcase. Then she called Keh. Fortunately, he was far away from the base and hadn¡¯t arrived yet. ¡°What¡¯s up, Cassie?¡± he asked. ¡°Please ask Ethan to go to my vi and take my suitcase to your base. We will work with you to complete the task and fly to the destination together with you guys,¡± Cassandra said. ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll have Ethan go fetch it for you,¡± Keh answered. Cassandra hung up the phone. Daniel looked at her as if he had seen a ghost. He thought, ¡®Emery is indeed a Dig shot. Judging from her tone, the man on the other end of the line should be the head of Falcon Special Operations Force. She asked him to serve her. That was unbelievable! ¡°Shall we go now?¡± Cassandra asked. Daniel couldn¡¯t help but ask, ¡°Are you sure there¡¯s time for that?¡± ¡°Yes, I am sure,¡± Cassandra replied. ***** At Falcon Special Operations Force Base, everyone was ready to go. After Keh changed his uniform, Yannick and Kayden began to assemble their men. Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. ¡°ording to the superior¡¯s order, a riot broke out in Zosteylor, endangering people¡¯s safety. It is estimated that more than 20 Clusians were in severe physical danger in Zosteylor. What we need to do this time is evacuate them from Zosteylor safely. The National Security Bureau has sent some staff from the information security department to cooperate with us. We must seed in this mission! Understand?¡± They must not only seed but also aplish the task without getting hurt. ¡°Yes, sir! We promise we¡¯llplete the mission!¡± the soldiers said in unison. By the time Cassandra and the others arrived, Keh hade up with a rescue n, ready to go. When Daniel met Keh, Daniel said to him seriously, ¡°Commander Zelinski, I have notified everyone in the information security department, but some of them live outside Drieso. So I will ask them to fly straight to Zosteylor. I¡¯ll trouble you to pick them up at that time.¡± His ability was limited. All his men were technical masters, but they were not good fighters, so he needed someone to protect them. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, Director Walker. I will arrange for someone to pick them up,¡± Keh replied. He nced at Cassandra out of the corner of his eye. He knitted his brows and kind of worried about her. Zosteylor was currently at war. He didn¡¯t want Cassandra to risk her life. However, she was in charge of the information security department. ¡°Then I¡¯m rest assured,¡± Daniel said. Everybody got on the ne, heading to Zosteylor. On the ne, those soldiers who were familiar with Cassandra began to greet her. ¡°Ms. Yates, we are working together again. What an honor!¡± ¡°I¡¯m honored, too,¡± Cassandra answered. However, Jeremiah was a little unhappy. He sat next to Cassandra and asked in a reproachful tone, ¡°Why the hell are you here? What a dangerous ce Zosteylor is! Do you have a death wish?¡± Cassandra nced at Jeremiah and asked, ¡°You guys can go. Why can¡¯t I?¡± ¡°We are soldiers. It¡¯s our duty to protect civilians. What are you doing there?¡± Jeremiah said, taking it for granted. ¡°It seems that the training you¡¯ve done these days is not in vain,¡± Cassandra chuckled. ¡°I¡¯m not kidding with you,¡± Jeremiah said. ¡°Jeremiah, do you think you can defeat me? Can they defeat me with the weapons they have?¡± Cassandra said seriously. ¡°I¡¯m not that weak. I can protect myself. Just do your job.¡± Moreover, the two most important people in her life participated in this mission, so she was very fortunate to fight alongside Keh again and protect Jeremiah. Chapter 259 Chapter 259 After getting off the ne, Cassandra turned on her mobile phone. She received a lot of messages from Cassidy, Sofia, her instructor, and Howard. Sofia: [My idol, why didn¡¯t you attend ss today? I noticed no one answered when the teacher called your name.] Sofia: [The school is over. Why haven¡¯t youe yet? Are you fine?] Cassidy: [Cassandra, did anything happen to you?] Cassidy: [How strange! You didn¡¯te to school. Neither did Harper.] They were all concerned about her and kept texting or calling her. Cassandra felt a little embarrassed for a moment. She walked up to Daniel and said awkwardly, ¡°Director Walker, please notify my school that I¡¯ll get a couple of days off school. I forgot to ask for leave.¡± This task would take a long time, so she needed to justify herself. She decided to let Daniel ask for leave on her behalf. Anyway, he was the one who gave her this task. Daniel raised his eyebrows and asked in surprise, ¡°Ask for leave?¡± ¡°I¡¯m still a student. Don¡¯t I need to ask for leave when I¡¯m absent from ss?¡± Cassandra asked back. Daniel was speechless. He forgot Cassandra was still a freshman in college. ¡°Leave it to me. Don¡¯t worry about it,¡± Daniel replied. She only replied to Sofia¡¯s WhatsApp message. [I have something urgent to do. I will ask for leave later. Please let Cassidy know.] However, she didn¡¯t have time to reply to all of them. Daniel began to collect their cell phones. She switched it off and handed it over to him. After arriving at the battle camp, the rest of the staff from the information security department also arrived. They started assigning work.. ********* After hours of meetings and situation analysis, they finally had an idea of Zosteylor¡¯s situation. The war was caused by powerpetition. Zosteylor¡¯s new queen had taken power a year ago, but she never made public appearances on television. Her husband presided over everything on her behalf. They subdued the infighting and drove the queen¡¯s sister from Zosteylor. This time, the queen¡¯s sister returned with her troops to seize power. They didn¡¯t expect their war to injure Clusia nationals by mistake. Kam, the queen¡¯s sister, was determined to obtain the position she deserved. When Clusia¡¯s troops negotiated with her, they didn¡¯t get a satisfactory answer. This is property ? of N?velDrama.Org. Kam intended to upy the Queen¡¯s pce earlier, with the support of Clusia¡¯s troops. She had threatened Clusia with its people, but Clusia had its own rules and would never intervene in the internal affairs of other countries. Their task was to evacuate Clusia nationals from Zosteylor safely. The internal affairs in Zosteylor had nothing to do with Clusia. Unfortunately, the two sides couldn¡¯t reach a consensus. Clusia gave the task to the Falcon Special Operations Force and requested that theyplete the mission with the support of the information security department. After the meeting, Keh asked them to go back to their rooms for a rest and decided to assign them the assignment the next morning. At that time, only Keh and Cassandra were left in the huge office. He had suppressed his emotions for a long time along the way. He was torn between his beloved woman and Clusia nationals. As amander, he couldn¡¯t fail his duties. Cassandra had the best hacking skills in the information security department. In other words, Emery was admired by hackers all over the world. Without her, Falcon Special Operations Force might spend more effort while achieving fewer results. They might also face more dangers. But Cassandra was his girlfriend. He would be distracted and worried about her safety if she stayed on the battlefield. After hesitating for a long time, Keh said, ¡°Cassie, you¡­ You shouldn¡¯t havee.¡± He didn¡¯t doubt her abilities but worried about her safety. Cassandra frowned and said with dissatisfaction, ¡°Are you afraid of me dragging you down?¡± She added after thinking for a while, ¡°How about we have apetition? Please don¡¯t say that again if I win or we¡¯re even.¡± Keh¡¯s tone was exactly like Jeremiah¡¯s, but Jeremiah sounded a little angrier. She could protect herself. What made them worry so sick? Keh was stunned. ¡°Cassie, I¡¯m not questioning your ability and fighting skills. As long as you are in this dangerous ce, I can¡¯t stop worrying about you,¡± he exined. He worried sick as long as he thought of the risk she might face. Cassandra¡¯s frown eased. She patted Keh on the shoulder and said in a very gentle tone, ¡°I know what you mean. I understand your concern. But now we have more important things to do. We shouldn¡¯t put personal safety first.¡± Although she was not a soldier, she served the country. She was still prompted by patriotism. However, Keh deepened his frown upon hearing what she said. ¡°Cassie¡­¡± ¡°Stop trying to persuade me. You should understand me,¡± Cassandra said. Keh was surprised. He thought, ¡®How am I to understand you? You were abandoned by your family and had a miserable childhood, but you are still optimistic about life. You don¡¯t believe in love, but you still choose to risk your life for strangers? Cassie, you¡¯re so conflicted. What kind of a person are you?¡® ¡°I give up. When you¡¯re in danger, try your best to protect yourself and wait for me to save you,¡± Keh said. ¡°No problem. Don¡¯t worry. It¡¯s not easy for me to revive. I don¡¯t wanna die,¡± Cassandra blurted out. It was the first time for her to say something without thinking. ¡°Revive?¡± Keh was a little confused. What did that mean? ¡°For me, I revived after leaving the Yates family,¡± Cassandra said, trying to whitewash it. Keh understood what she said with ¡°Yeah. You¡¯re right,¡± Keh agreed. any suspicions. ¡°The two sides in Zosteylor agreed to a truce for the time being. We can take the chance to deploy our rescue work during this period,¡± Cassandra said. All could think now was work. There were more than 30,000 Clusians in Zosteylor. Evacuation of all of them was an arduous task, and they also needed to keep them safe in the war. It was quite a challenge. ¡°We can discuss it tomorrow. Have a good night¡¯s sleep,¡± Keh said. ***** Because it was a truce, Cassandra packed her backpack and went out with Keh. They wouldn¡¯t seed in their task if they didn¡¯t do fieldwork. They needed to know the situation of Clusians and civilian casualties. Many people were left homeless after their homes were damaged by the st. Refugees rushed into the supermarket to snatch food. Bombs wounded children¡¯s hands, but they were unable to get to the hospital for treatment. Cassandra felt sad when she saw the scene. She suddenly felt proud of being a Clusian. She walked in front of the injured child, examined him, and stopped the bleeding. Then she took out a pill from her bag and fed the kid. She couldn¡¯t speak much of the localnguage, so she could onlymunicate with the child¡¯s mother in broken sentences. She advised the mother to feed him with more water and pay attention to the child at night in case he had a fever. Chapter 260 Chapter 260 Cassandra kept treating patients on the streets in Zosteylor, whether they came from Clusia or Zosteylor. She didn¡¯t stop until she used up all the drugs in her backpack. Acupuncture might help people heal and halt bleeding, but they still needed drugs to sterilize their wounds. When she got up, she felt dizzy and almost fell on her back. Fortunately, Keh supported her in time. ¡°Cassie, let''s call ita day. There are many injured people, and you can¡¯t save them all. You barely eat all day,¡± Keh said, his heart aching for her. They met injured kids, women, and elders every few steps. She didn¡¯t even have time to take a rest. He fed her two chocte bars and to be removed. O pieces of hardtack while she waited for the needles ¡°I''m afraid | have to call it a day. | used up all the drugs | had with me. We''ll see when wee out tomorrow,¡± Cassandra said helplessly, rubbing her forehead. ¡°Let''s go back. There are so many injured people. We can¡¯t save all of them. You have already tried your best,¡± Keh comforted her. ¡°Mhm,¡± Cassandra replied. After returning to the camp, Cassandra ate a quick meal and was ready to go to bed. But when she double¡ªchecked her drugs, she found that there was not much left. Especially the ones used for stopping bleeding and relieving pain. Today, she stuffed most of them into her backpack and used up all of them. Even the anesthetic Hugo prepared for her was not much left. She wondered how to deliver the drugs she needed. Seeing her frown, Keh asked with concern, ¡°What''s bothering you?¡± ¡°Hugo has prepared a lot of drugs for me, but they almost ran out today. The majority of the remaining ones are cold medicine and fever reducers with special effects. There are no drugs for traumatic injuries left,¡± Cassandra replied, a little annoyed.Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. ¡®Why did I run out of them at once? | should have sorted them out. Even if | used half of them, | could have saved and treated more people,¡¯ she said to herself. But now, she couldn''t save people with cold medicines. ¡°Cassie, you''ve tried your best. You have already saved so many people today. You did an amazing job. Keep the rest of the drugs for yourself, okay?¡± Keh said in aforting voice. He didn¡¯t want her to take any more risks. Although it was a truce, there were still ouws out there trying to provoke the war again. He couldn''t go out with her anytime. He had a lot of work to do, so he didn¡¯t have time to go out with her tomorrow. ¡°| did my best. Have you sent those Clusians that | saved today to the conste?¡± Cassandra asked. She didn¡¯t care if she had run out of drugs. All she could think was when she could go out tomorrow. ¡°Yes, | have,¡± Keh replied softly. ¡°| need to deploy tasks tomorrow. | might be busy all day. You stay in the camp and do your work on information security.¡± ¡°| made an arrangement long ago. When the mission begins, it will activate the software | configured, which can monitor everywhere in Zosteylor except for the queen¡¯s pce. It can help with your operations. Spark and Sylph can coborate with you to monitor any location you want,¡± Cassandra replied. Keh felt something was wrong as he listened to her. They almost received the task at the same time. When did she complete this software? He wondered if shepleted it the night before. Didn¡¯t it mean she hadn''t slept all night? 2D} ¡°You studied this software all night without sleeping?¡± he asked. Cassandra nodded obediently. It was a littleplicated to build a tform, configure monitoring services, and connect all the surveince cameras to this software. There were too many things that needed to be done, so it took her a lot of time. ¡°You...¡± Keh didn¡¯t know what to say for a moment. Hearing what Cassandra had done, he knew it may do them a big favor. It was a great sort of feather in their cap. He would be too sentimental if he was talking too much. ¡°Have a good rest today. Let¡¯s talk about it tomorrow,¡± he said. ¡°Wait. | have a favor to ask,¡± Cassandra said, suddenly thinking of a way. ¡°I''ll send someone to pick up drugs from Hugo. Can you give him the green light to transport them into the camp?¡± She was now in the camp, and she had to follow the regtions to get in and out. Keh would not approve of her leaving the camp so easily for a good reason. But she could ask her men to bring the drugs over if he could give her the green light. Why didn¡¯t she think of it just now? It was Daniel''s fault for not telling her about the task in the first ce. She was caught unprepared because the drugs were running out. Keh was stunned. ¡°How about this? You ask Hugo to prepare the drugs you need, and I''ll have Ethan and Lamont bring them over. Don¡¯t worry about it anymore, okay?¡± he answered, knowing Cassandra woulde up with such an idea. She would save the patient she wanted to save anyway. Regarding Faye¡¯s rule, she refused to treat someone just because they were bad. She was willing to treat and save ordinary people, even for free. ¡°Okay, I''ll leave it to you. There¡¯s no time to lose. I''ll ask Hugo to prepare the drugs now,¡± 3/5 Napect Cassandra said. Ignoring Keh, she called Hugo and asked him to prepare as many drugs as he could. She also ordered Whitecrane Hall to produce drugs as soon as possible. The next day, Keh didn¡¯t allow her to go out alone. In the end, hepromised and arranged for two soldiers to go with her. ¡°Emery, what are we doing here?¡± one of the soldiers asked. It would be nice to stay with Emery, but they also wanted to participate in the mission. ¡°Why don¡¯t you go back first? Don¡¯t worry about me. When | use up these drugs, | will go back,¡± Cassandra said. They were desperately in need of people toplete the task. She was a little embarrassed to have two of them protect her.

Soon, a group of people appeared all of a sudden. They surrounded them from the front and back. The man who stood in front of her asked in broken Clusian, ¡°A-Are you the doctor they mentioned y¡ªyesterday?¡± He thought, ¡®She looks so young. How could she be a doctor? Could she be a swindler?¡¯ The man behind her spoke fluent Clusian. ¡°I heard that a goddess appeared in this area yesterday and treated the injured. | bet you''re the doctor, right?¡± The content is on noveldrama.org! Read thetest chapter there! His voice was pleasant. Cassandra assumed he was young, no older than Keh. She withdrew the needles and looked ahead. She motioned her twopanions to contact Keh immediately. Unfortunately, their cell phones had no signal. Cassandra was startled. 4/5 She took out her phone and the ck screen lit up for a while. She removed their signal block in one minute. Her twopanions were able to call Keh right away. The content is on noveldrama.org! Read thetest chapter there! She turned to look at the man behind her. He didn¡¯t look like a soldier but a nobleman wit a handsome face. The man was also stunned at the sight of her. He even looked a little frightened. Chapter 261 Chapter 261 He thought, ¡®Why is Cassie here? ¡®Doesn¡¯t she know that there are endless wars here? ¡®Life may be in danger here at any time. Why is she here? ¡®She¡¯s actually saving people on the street. Isn¡¯t she afraid of being targeted by Kam¡¯s men?¡® ¡°Ms. Yates, why are you here?¡± The man addressed her by herst name directly. Cassandra frowned and thought, ¡®Does this man know me? ¡®But I don¡¯t know him.¡¯ ¡°Do you know me?¡± Seeing that this man might know her, although she was highly vignt, her tone was calm. ¡°Yes, you¡¯re ssmates with my younger brother.¡± This man was Harper¡¯s nominal eldest brother, Theodore Yates. He was adopted by the queen and the prince consort. Cassandra thought for a moment. This man was from Zosteylor, and his younger brother and she were ssmates, which meant that he was Harper¡¯s elder brother. She remembered that she met Harper¡¯s elder brother at the amusement parkst time, and they didn¡¯t seem to be the same person. She thought, ¡®The queen has so many children.¡¯ ¡°I see.¡± Cassandra nodded. ¡°Cassandra,e with us. I¡¯ll take you back,¡± Theodore said. 1/6 Originally, Theodore wanted to get ahead of Kam¡¯s men and take away the doctor. Even if she refused to join them, it would be better to persuade her not to join Kam¡¯s team. Now that he knew she was Cassie, it would be impossible for him to put her in peril. His previous thoughts didn¡¯t matter anymore. ¡°Do you know where I live?¡± Cassandra asked. At this time, the man behind Cassandra lost patience and looked angry. He even aimed at Cassandra with a gun and said, ¡°You, turn around. Look at me. I have something (to) ask you.¡± Cassandra turned her head, looked at the muzzle of the gun without any fear, and replied, ¡°What are you going to say?¡± ¡°Come with me. My master wants to see you.¡± He said this pretty clearly. ¡°Your fight has nothing to do with me. I¡¯m a Clusian, and more importantly, I¡¯m a doctor. I¡¯m just here to save people. It seems that I haven¡¯t disturbed you.¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t walk to either side, and she didn¡¯t have to rely on either side to get away as well. She just needed to wait for Keh toe here. But still, she couldn¡¯t confront the tough with toughness now that she was still alone here. Therefore, she had to buy some time first. She didn¡¯t have a gun. Only the two men arranged by Keh had guns. She didn¡¯t take a gun with her because these injured people had experienced the war and were very sensitive to guns. If she put it in her bag and took it out identally, they might be scared. She didn¡¯t expect that she would be surrounded by so many people. ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org . ¡°You¡­ D¨CDon¡¯t¡­ P¨CPush¡­ Me¡­¡± 2/6 It was clear that he wasn¡¯t good at Clusian. He couldn¡¯t even finish a sentence properly. ¡°Brut, she¡¯s just a young girl. I don¡¯t think Ms. Stark will find faults with a young girl.¡± Theodore took two steps forward and talked to the person opposite him in Zosteylor¡¯snguage. ¡°Theodore, why do you care so much about her? I¡¯m more interested in her now. I believe that my master will also be interested in her.¡± The man thought, ¡®If the royal family of Zosteylor is interested in her, my master must be interested in her. ¡®Moreover, Theodore seems to care about this person very much, which makes it even more interesting.¡¯ Cassandra could only understand some of their conversation, such as little girl, rtionship, and interest. It seemed like they were talking about her. The kindness of Harper¡¯s elder brother made her a little confused. She felt he was being too friendly. The two of them had been talking to each other in thenguage of Zosteylor. Cassandra couldn¡¯t understand it, so she just sat on the ground and watched them arguing. She didn¡¯t have to do anything except for waiting for Keh to arrive. Before long, severalrge military trucks appeared ahead. Dozens of people jumped out of the trucks and soon surrounded them. Theodore was speechless. They seemed to be the Clusian army. Keh walked towards Cassandra in military uniform in a quite imposing manner. He hurriedly walked up to Cassandra and asked, ¡°Cassie, are you okay?¡± Cassandra smiled, shook her head, and answered, ¡°I¡¯m fine. They didn¡¯t do anything to me. 3/6 They were quarreling and I couldn¡¯t understand their conversation because I don¡¯t know thenguage of Zosteylor.¡± Keh was speechless. He thought, ¡®Is it the right time to talk about this now?¡® Seeing some armying to pick Cassandra up, Theodore was still a little worried about her. But when he saw the man¡¯s face clearly, he was shocked and said, ¡°Mr. Zelinski?¡± The logo on Keh¡¯s uniform was the Falcon Special Operations Force. Theodore thought, ¡®He¡¯s with the Falcon Special Operations Force? ¡®And he seems to be amander¨Cin-chief. ¡°Mr. Yates, I didn¡¯t expect to meet you on such an asion.¡± Keh didn¡¯t expect that the person sent by the royal family was actually Theodore, a guy who was definitely no fighter. Keh thought, ¡®Did hee out to get himself killed?¡® Cassandra reacted for a moment and suddenly remembered that Keh knew Harper¡¯s other elder brother, so he should know this one as well. But Theodore¡¯s gaze at Keh wasn¡¯t so friendly. Because he had heard from Vincent that Cassie¡¯s boyfriend was Keh, but he didn¡¯t expect Keh to be the chief of Falcon Special Operations Force. When the Falcon Special Operations Force was dispatched before, the chief always wore a mask. But this time he didn¡¯t wear it¡­ ¡°Ms. Yates is a Clusian, so I¡¯ll take her away.¡± Keh took Cassandra¡¯s hand and was ready to leave. Brut pointed his gun at Keh and said, ¡°You can¡¯t go!¡± He said in thenguage of Zosteylor, ¡°My master has invited her. No one can take her away. She must go with me.¡± 4/6 Keh¡¯s face darkened instantly. He said in a deep voice, ¡°Ms. Yates is from the military department of Clusia. Where does Ms. Stark want to take her? Did she ask if we Clusians agree?¡± Brut¡¯s face became gloomy as well. He knew that Clusians cared about their citizens, but he didn¡¯t expect this woman to be a member of the military department. If he openly took away Clusia¡¯s soldier, it would be causing a dispute between the two countries. Even identally hurting a citizen of Clusia wouldn¡¯t have much impact. At least, they could exin and say that citizen was implicated in the war. However, the nature of taking away members of the army department was different. Brut continued, ¡°Why should I believe you? Do you have any proof?¡± ¡°My presence is the best proof. Clusia won¡¯t intervene in the matter between Ms. Stark and Queen Leanna, but if you want to take our people away, we won¡¯t turn a blind eye to it.¡± Keh looked at Brut sternly, and his tone was firm. ¡°Mr. Zelinski, take Ms. Yates back. I¡¯ll handle this.¡± Theodore thought, ¡®As long as Cassie leaves, nothing will be a problem! ¡°Thank you, Mr. Yates.¡± Keh thought, ¡®It would be the best to let Theodore handle this. I can¡¯t harm those people easily, but he can do it at will.¡® Keh took Cassandra¡¯s hand and strode away. Seeing Cassandra safely in the car, Theodore looked at Brut with bloodthirsty and cold eyes. He snatched a gun from one of his men and shot Brut straight through the middle of his eyebrow¡­ ¡°You can threaten me with anyone, but if you want to hurt Cassie, you¡¯ll have to die.¡± Theodore turned around and left with his men, leaving Brut lying in a pool of blood¡­ Chapter 262 Chapter 262 Back to the camp, Keh got out of the car, ignored Cassandra, and directly walked away. Cassandra was left standing at the car door in a daze. She didn¡¯t think this was a good sign. Keh was angry with her, but she didn¡¯t expect this to happen as well. Moreover, when the signal was blocked, she cracked it right the first time and asked someone to contact him. She couldn¡¯t figure out why he was still so angry. Seeing that Keh came in alone, Yannick and Kayden were a little surprised. They thought Keh went to pick Cassandra up. So they were confused seeing him back alone. ¡°Keh, where¡¯s Cassie?¡± Kayden couldn¡¯t help asking. Kayden was worried that Keh failed to bring Cassandra back from those people. Keh didn¡¯t say anything. At this time, Cassandra also came in with aggrieved eyes touch of fear for having done something wrong¡­? and a Yannick thought, ¡®I must¡¯ve misread it. When has Ms. Yates ever admitted she did something wrong? ¡®Moreover, it seems that Mr. Zelinski is angry with Ms. Yates. Otherwise, his face won¡¯t be so sullen. ¡®Mr. Zelinski is still angry with Ms. Yates at such a time. He¡¯s such an unqualified boyfriend!¡® Kayden winked at Yannick. His eyes said, ¡®Let¡¯s go out and let the two of them talk. 1/5 Thetter replied with his eyes too, ¡®Is that okay? I feel Mr. Zelinski will eat Ms. Yates alive! Kayden winked as if saying, ¡®Cassie knows what she¡¯s doing, and Keh won¡¯t do anything to her. Let¡¯s go first.¡® Therefore, Yannick and Kayden silently left the tent and left the two of them alone. ¡°Ken, are you angry?¡± Seeing that no one else was in the tent, Cassandra ventured to walk towards Keh. His face was gloomy. In the past, he was always formidable even though he didn¡¯t show his anger, but now the emotion on his face was quite obvious. Keh ignored her and didn¡¯t even look at her. Cassandra could feel his anger. She felt that he didn¡¯t want to talk to her, so she decided to let him calm down and talk about this matterter. So, she turned around and walked towards the door. Looking at her lonely back, Keh felt distressed. He thought, ¡®Why should I get angry with her? She was only doing this for ordinary people involved in the war. ¡®She¡¯s Dr. Quirke. How can a doctor watch people die and do nothing? Then she won¡¯t be herself.¡® But as long as he thought of the time when he went there and saw Kam¡¯s subordinate aiming his gun at her, his heart was lifted up to his throat. He was so afraid that something horrible would happen if he was a bitte. He wanted her to learn her lesson and not go out alone like this again, and he wanted to get angry with her so that she would know the seriousness of the matter. However, looking at her lonely back, he was no longer angry but only distressed. ¡°Do you know what you did wrong?¡± Hearing Keh¡¯s voice, Cassandra paused. She looked at him and noticed the indifference on his face was gone. 2/5 She hurriedly walked to Keh and said with a grievance, ¡°I know. I won¡¯t put the gun in the camp next time.¡± Keh was rendered speechless. He thought, ¡®Does she think that¡¯s the point?¡® ¡°I don¡¯t think you¡¯ve realized the problem.¡± Keh took a deep breath and told himself not to get angry with his girlfriend. ¡°I know what you want to say. It¡¯s so dangerous out there. I shouldn¡¯t go out to save people or put myself in danger. I understand everything you want to say.¡± Cassandra paused and said seriously, ¡°Ken, first of all, I¡¯m a doctor. It¡¯s not my personality to fold my hands and see people die. I can refuse to save evil people ording to my mood, but those outside are just ordinary people involved in the war. ¡°They lost their homes and money, and they couldn¡¯t get treatment in the hospital. Since I met them, I couldn¡¯t leave them alone. Moreover, these two days, I¡¯ve found more than 20 Clusians. Isn¡¯t that a good thing? ¡°Secondly, I¡¯m a member of the National Security Bureau. Although I¡¯m only an information security department officer, I am also a member of the country and a part of this Evacuation Operation. If there may be Clusian citizens outside, then shouldn¡¯t I them?¡± go find Cassandra made a good point. As a doctor and a civil servant, she should put the safety of Clusian citizens first. However, Keh was a human being and had his own selfish motives. He just wanted Cassandra not to get hurt. ¡°But have you ever thought about me? When I saw Brut put his gun against your head, have you thought how I would feel? Have you thought I might be afraid when I saw that scene?¡± Keh felt that his retort was a little powerless. ¡°I understand. You were all over my mind. I knew that you must¡¯ve received the news and woulde to save me as soon as possible and not leave me in danger, so I wasn¡¯t afraid of those people. Besides, I just didn¡¯t have a gun, but I could protect myself. It wouldn¡¯t be a 3/5 problem for me to snatch one from them. ¡°But at that time, I thought if you came over and saw me against so many people, you would be more frightened, so I didn¡¯t act rashly and waited for you.¡± Speaking of this, Cassandra also felt a little aggrieved. No one dared to point a gun at her head like that before, but she had experienced it today. If it had been in the past, she would definitely strike back. But she pretended not to see it because she was afraid that her counterattack would scare Keh. When the Evacuation Operation was over, she would surely rip that man¡¯s head off and kick it like a ball! Keh felt both relieved and helpless. He was relieved that she had considered him even in such a dangerous situation, but he was helpless because he knew that she would still do it again. ¡°Fine. But don¡¯t think about going out these days. Our men will go find the wounded and missing Clusian citizens, which is our duty as soldiers. You just need to do your job in the camp. ¡°As for the medicine sent by Ethan, you can sort it out and tell me about the usage and dosage. I¡¯ll think about how to give it to the people outside, okay?¡± Keh said that patiently, but he wasn¡¯t sure whether she would listen. ¡°Okay.¡± Cassandra nodded and continued, ¡°Then can you stop being angry?¡± ¡°I wasn¡¯t angry with you. I was angry with myself.¡± He was angry with himself for not going out with her. Cassandra suddenly hugged Keh and said in an aggrieved voice, ¡°I thought you didn¡¯t want me anymore.¡± When he got out of the car and walked away without looking back, when he returned to the tent without saying a word, she thought that she would be abandoned again. The fear and terror in her heart grew recklessly. She had even thought that if he didn¡¯t want her anymore, she would die with him. No one was strong enough to be abandoned so many times. ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org . She could be cruel to anyone, but she had imagined countless times that Keh no longer wanted her and still couldn¡¯t convince herself. Luckily, he didn¡¯t. Keh felt distressed. He hugged Cassandra and said, ¡°What are you thinking about? I¡¯ll never abandon you.¡± ¡°Really?¡± ¡°Really.¡± Cassandra felt that she was very different from before. She thought, ¡®Am I only like this in front of him?¡® Chapter 263 Chapter 263 In Theodore¡¯s room in the Queen¡¯s Pce, Vincent and Harper were also here. ¡°Theodore, why did you call Vincent and me here?¡± Harper didn¡¯t seem to be in a good mood and even darkened his face. Vincent looked at Harper and shook his head helplessly. He thought, ¡®Harper must''ve been scolded again for going to school in Clusia without the permission of his parents. ¡®Moreover, he¡¯s still taking medicine. Mother must be distressed.* ¡°Cassie came to Zosteylor.¡± Theodore¡¯s words were like a bombshell that knocked both of them out. Harper stood up suddenly. He felt dizzy probably because he exerted too much strength. Vincent held him quickly. ¡°Theodore, what did you say? Are you telling the truth?¡± Harper didn¡¯t believe it. Harper thought, ¡®Cassandra should be in ss. Why did shee to Zosteylor? She knew how chaotic this ce was from the news, so why did shee here? ¡°Yes, the doctor who saved people on the street yesterday is her.¡± They learned that there was a doctor with excellent medical skills who was saving people in the street, so Theodore and his two younger brothers, as well as their father, had discussed that one of them went to bring the doctor back and tried to win the doctor over to their side. At this time of war, doctors and medical supplies were in short supply, let alone skilled doctors. But he didn¡¯t expect the doctor to be Cassie. Although Theodore and Vincent weren¡¯t Leanna¡¯s biological children, they had been raised by her and Darren since childhood, so Cassie was just like their sister. All his principles and ideas had been thrown aside when Theodore saw her. Vincent was a little shocked and didn¡¯t understand. He said, ¡°Isn¡¯t she a college student? Even if she has some achievements, those are just artistic ones. She¡¯s not a soldier or an official doctor, and we didn¡¯t ask Clusia for help. There¡¯s a lot of war here. What''s she doing here?!¡± The more he talked, the angrier he became. He thought Cassie just had to go wherever it was dangerous. ¡°| don¡¯t know what she came here for, but she followed Keh here,¡± Theodore said helplessly. Vincent was even more irritated. He thought, ¡®What kind of a boyfriend he is?! What the hell is he doing with his girlfriend on the battlefield?¡¯ ¡°If ¡¯m not mistaken, Keh is the head of Clusia¡¯s Falcon Special Operations Force. As for why Cassie is here with him, | don¡¯t know.¡± This was also what Theodore couldn''t figure out. ording to their investigation, Cassandra was a student at Juset University. She also disguised herself as a well-known designer ine and a popr lyricist Samantha in the entertainment circle. There was no more information, so he wondered why she was here and what she wanted to do. Theodore looked at Harper and said, ¡°Do you have Cassie¡¯s WhatsApp ount? Ask her.¡± Harper¡¯s face stiffened, and his head tilted to one side. He didn¡¯t. ¡°You''ve been her ssmate for so long. How can you not even have her WhatsApp ount?¡± Vincentined. Harper suddenly came up with an idea and said, ¡°I remember. I''ll try to add her from our ss chat group.¡± As a result, his friend request went unanswered. He said in embarrassment, ¡°Maybe she [e) didn¡¯t look at her phone.¡± ¡°Ask your ssmates who are on good terms with her,¡± Theodore suggested. Harper opened the chat box with Sofia. Harper: [Sofia, did Cassandra go to ss these two days?] Sofia: [No, the two of you were absent from ss on the same day. Everyone knows your condition. Are you safe now?] Harper: [I''m fine, but today | saw a girl on the street of Zosteylor who looks very like Cassandra, so | wanted to ask you if she was still in Clusia.] Sofia: [I don¡¯t know. You and she asked for leave together, and her leave was granted by Mr. Huddleston. | don¡¯t know the reason, but | can¡¯t get through to her phone these days and it has been turned off all the time.] Cassandra¡¯s phone had been turned off all the time, which meant that it might have been confiscated, so she didn¡¯t see the friend request. ¡°Then we can¡¯t get in touch with Cassie now?¡± Vincent asked. Theodore was lost in thought. He had tried all the ways he could think of but still couldn''t contact Cassie directly, so he didn¡¯t know her situation. ¡°Vincent, don¡¯t you know how to hack? Hack the surveince system of Falcon Special Operations Force to check how Cassie is now. What do you think?¡± Harper thought his suggestion was quite good. Vincent took out herputer and began to hack the surveince system, but he found that he couldn¡¯t hack in at all. In the camp. 2/5 ¡°Jeremiah, someone is attacking us.¡± The technician of Falcon Special Operations Force reported to Jeremiah. When Jeremiah joined the Falcon Special Operations Force, he and the technicians had apetition. In the end, they were all completely defeated by him. It was also at that time that he gained a bunch of fans. ¡°Which part is being attacked?¡± Jeremiah became serious and asked in a deep voice. ¡°It seems to be... Our surveince system?¡± ¡°Everything must be done to stop it. The surveince system is very important.¡± Jeremiah said that, intercepting the attack incessantly. He cursed in his heart, ¡®Who the hell dares to hack into the surveince system of Falcon Special Operations Force? Is he courting death? Half an hourter, Jeremiah began to sweat. He could hardly hold on. The enemy¡¯s strength was strong, and he seemed to be no match. Meanwhile, Vincent was also a little anxious. He thought, ¡®Who is this guy? His skills are superb. If | can¡¯t seed in another five minutes, then | will definitely lose!¡¯ The content is on noveldrama.org! Read thetest chapter there! But Jeremiah felt that he couldn¡¯t hold on any longer. ¡°Hurry up and call Emery over for me!¡± Jeremiah¡¯s fingers moved extremely fast, and the sweat on his forehead kept flowing down. Cassandra came over and saw Jeremiah¡¯s embarrassed appearance. She frowned and asked, ¡°What happened?¡± ¡°Someone is attacking the surveince system of Falcon Special Operations Force. The enemy is very powerful, and I can barely hold on.¡± Cassandra darkened her face. She knew best about Jeremiah¡¯s strength. After all, she taught him herself. Someone who could scare him shouldn''t be underestimated. ¡°Get up! Let me do it!¡± Cassandra pulled Jeremiah and he quickly got up to make room for her. Cassandra took over his work, her fingers dancing on the keyboard so fast that they could barely be seen clearly. The content is on noveldrama.org! Read thetest chapter there! Five minutester, Vincent was defeated and failed in his attack. Cassandra stood up and said with disgust, ¡°That¡¯s all he got? | think your skills have deteriorated and you need to take sses.¡± Jeremiah was speechless. He thought, ¡®Is that really necessary?!" ¡°The enemy is really good. | held on for half an hour but failed to defeat him.¡± Jeremiah protested with dissatisfaction. He thought the enemy was very powerful. But he couldn¡¯t figure out why the enemy was defeated by ine so fast.Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. Vincent closed theputer and said, ¡°I can¡¯t. The protection system of Falcon Special Operations Force is too strong. Especially atst, that person should be their leader. Otherwise, he wouldn''t have beaten me so quickly.¡± The content is on noveldrama.org! Read thetest chapter there! Chapter 264 Chapter 264 The surveince thing was over. Anyway, they had to stop since it would easily arouse suspicion. However, Cassandra had already suspected it. She tracked the enemy after she finished her work and finally got the information that he was in the Queen¡¯s Pce. Looking at the IP address on the screen, Cassandra was a little confused. She asked, ¡°Why do people from Queen¡¯s Pce want to hack into the surveince system of the Falcon Special Operations Force? What do they want?¡± Jeremiah was confused as well and he said, ¡°I don¡¯t know. The Falcon Special Operations. Force is just here toplete the Evacuation Operation. Why would someone attack us?¡± Cassandra rolled her eyes and said, ¡°How do I know?¡± ¡°I know.¡± Keh also came in. He went to find Cassandra but didn¡¯t see her. Someone said that Cassandra hade to the technical team. He heard them discussing and couldn¡¯t help but cut in. ¡°What is it?¡± ¡°The person we met today is Theodore Yates, the Queen¡¯s eldest son, also Harper¡¯s elder brother. Vincent has good hacking skills. I think someone asked him to investigate you.¡± Otherwise, there was no other exnation. Cassandra was speechless. ¡°Are you saying that Harper did all this?¡± ¡°It¡¯s possible.¡± Keh nodded. Suddenly, his phone rang. ¡°Hello? ¡°Yes, sir! ¡°We¡¯ll arrive on time tomorrow!¡± Keh hung up the phone helplessly. ¡°What happened?¡± Cassandra asked. ¡°The higher authority ordered me to negotiate with the Queen of Zosteylor tomorrow on behalf of Clusia, and Director Walker will go see Kam.¡± Keh frowned. He thought, ¡°Their civil strife had already hurt innocent people, and now they won¡¯t even let Clusians go. ¡®What exactly do they want to do?¡® ¡°Just Director Walker?¡± Cassandra asked. ¡°I¡¯ll arrange for Yannick to apany him.¡± Keh looked at Jeremiah and continued, ¡°Why don¡¯t you go with Director Walker to see Kam as well?¡± Cassandra looked at Keh. She thought, ¡®What about me? ¡®Just wait at the camp?¡® 13 Keh seemed to know what Cassandra was thinking and said softly, ¡°You can¡¯t go anywhere now. You¡¯re the doctor they both want. No matter where you go, you may not be able toe back. We¡¯re going as ambassadors this time, and we won¡¯t be carrying weapons. So, you stay in the camp, okay?¡± Cassandra looked at Keh and seemed to want to argue, but she felt that he was right, so she said, ¡°Fine, I¡¯ll do as you say.¡± At the critical moment, she shouldn¡¯t be the one to hold them back. ** The next day, Keh, Kayden, and Kayden¡¯s second¨Cinmand, Daniel, Yannick, and Jeremiah split into two groups heading for the Queen¡¯s Pce and Kam¡¯s camp rtively. When they reached the Queen¡¯s Pce, they were stopped at the door. ¡°Sorry, but we need to search your body. The Queen is not in good health, so¡­¡± A guard said that respectfully. Keh showed understanding and let the guards search their bodies. After confirming that nothing was wrong, the guards let the three of them in. The gorgeous pce was magnificent. Perhaps because all the previous state leaders were women, traces of pink could be found everywhere in the pce, which wasn¡¯t obvious but couldn¡¯t be ignored as well. In the negotiation room, Keh and others were sitting aside, waiting for the Queen¡¯s arrival. When the Queen came in, Keh was stunned and called, ¡°Cas¡­¡± ¡®No, she isn¡¯t Cassie, he thought. Although she and Cassandra looked very alike, she was more mature and charming and her face bore the marks of age, while Cassandra was still immature and bright, and most importantly, her face was still quite delicate. ¡°Sorry to have kept you waiting, Mr. Zelinski.¡± The Queen first reached out and shook hands with Keh. Seeing this, Keh reached out his hand and gently shook hands with the Queen. ¡°Please have a seat.¡± Keh was still in shock. Her smile was quite like Cassandra¡¯s as well, and he could even imagine what Cassandra would look like after she turned 50. It was so real. He thought, ¡®Who is the Queen exactly?¡® O ¡°Mr. Zelinski, Mr. Zelinski?¡± The Queen called Keh twice. Kayden patted Keh¡¯s back worriedly, and Keh finally came to his senses. ¡°I¡¯m sorry.¡± Keh nodded and said, ¡°Your Majesty, you¡¯re just so much like a friend of mine. I thought I saw her. I¡¯m so sorry for being rude.¡± Keh suppressed his doubts and nned to wait for the exnation toe. ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter. It¡¯s rare to meet a person who looks like your friend in this world.¡± The Queen said with understanding. ¡°Yes, Your Majesty.¡± ¡°Let¡¯s get down to business.¡± After the brief interlude, Keh focused himself on the negotiation. ***** After several hours of discussion, although there was no final answer, the Queen had already wavered. Then, Keh decided to give a more specific Evacuation Operation n and wait for the Queen to make the decision and draft it, and then let Zosteylor¡¯s armies escort their Clusians. ¡°Thank you, Your Majesty. This has been of great help to our Evacuation Operation.¡± Keh showed his gratitude without hesitation. ¡°It¡¯s Clusia who helps us a lot¡­¡± The Queen looked at the three of them and went on gently, ¡°If you don¡¯t mind, you can have dinner here before going back.¡± Keh looked at Kayden and his second inmand. Seeing that there was nothing wrong with them, he agreed. During dinner, the Queen suddenly asked, ¡°Mr. Zelinski, your friend who looks very like me, where is she from? How old is she now?¡± She thought, ¡®Could it be my daughter? +5 ¡®Daughters look like mothers, don¡¯t they?¡® Keh looked at the Queen¡¯s expression. She seemed to have mixed feelings, including inquiry and expectation, but more of it was guilt. With this awareness, Keh didn¡¯t tell the truth. ¡°She¡¯s from Drieso. She¡¯s 20 now and very cute.¡± Except for adding Cassandra¡¯s age, he was telling the truth: years old Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. The Queen withdrew her eyes in disappointment. She thought, ¡®Her age is wrong, so she shouldn¡¯t be the person I¡¯m looking for. ¡®But even if she is, she shouldn¡¯te here at this time. How could she stand such chaos?¡® Keh pretended not to understand her emotions and asked curiously, ¡°Why did you ask that, Your Majesty?¡± ¡°I thought she would be my daughter¡­¡± However, she didn¡¯t have the right age. ¡°Oh? You have a daughter, Your Majesty? How old is she? Where is she now?¡± Keh asked, snorting coldly in his heart. If he was right, Cassandra was the daughter of the Queen. He thought, ¡®So why do they have to let Cassie suffer for 18 years when they have such a happy family?¡® ¡°She¡¯s 18 years old, but as for where she is¡­¡± The Queen sighed and continued, ¡°I don¡¯t know.¡± She didn¡¯t even know whether her daughter was alive or dead now. Keh asked, ¡°Did you guys get separated?¡± The Queen¡¯s face suddenly darkened as if she had thought of something unpleasant, and her breathing became rapid. ¡°Doctor, doctor!¡± Chapter 265 Chapter 265 There was a mess in the dining room. Suddenly, a figure shed by. Kayden thought it was familiar but couldn¡¯t remember the name. The man shouted anxiously, ¡°Honey, honey.¡± He hurriedly carried the Queen up in his arms. The doctor followed him and cried in Zosteylor¡¯s language, ¡°Take her to the emergency room!¡± Keh and Kayden were confused. They didn¡¯t know what was going on. Keh frowned slightly. He was not worried about the Queen¡¯s safety. He was worried about what would happen to the Clusian citizens in Zosteylor if anything happened to her. This is property ? of N?velDrama.Org. Without her support, Operation Evacuation would have a lot of setbacks. He didn¡¯t notice Kayden¡¯s confused look. He followed the man and waited outside the emergency room. He walked to the man who had carried the Queen and heard him call her his wife. He knew the man must be the prince consort. The man stared unblinkingly and motionlessly at the door. Keh said in a deep voice, ¡°Sorry. We don¡¯t know why the Queen suddenly fainted.¡± Only then did the mane to his senses. There was no hatred in his eyes but a little indifference. He said, ¡°It¡¯s all right. It¡¯s not your fault. She suffers poor health.¡± He looked at Keh and Kayden. ¡°Sorry if we scared you.¡± Everyone would be scared by this. The man suddenly raised his head and studied Kayden¡¯s face. He shook his head and thought, ¡®No way. There is no trace of it.¡¯ Kayden suddenly asked, ¡°Sir, I found your face familiar. Are you from Drieso, Clusia?¡± Kayden thought this face was very familiar and he must have seen this man before. He even thought the man was probably important to him. The man was shocked and looked at Kayden in astonishment. ¡°How do you know?¡± Kayden smiled faintly, ¡°I¡¯m indeed from Drieso. But I left there almost 20 years ago.¡± His look became gentle when Kayden mentioned Drieso. He said, ¡°You guessed it because I looked like a Clusian, right?¡± Kayden frowned and said in a deep voice, ¡°No, I really think I have seen you before. You look like my family but I can¡¯t remember the name. I¡¯m not sure.¡± Kayden thought, ¡®But he had been away from home for almost 20 years. He¡¯s my uncle? No wonder I found his face familiar. ¡®They seem to be living a good life here. ¡°The Queen, the prince consort, and three sons? ¡°What the hell is Cassie then? ¡°They have been having a good life but Cassie was made an orphan. She suffered so much but their sons were born with wealth and privileges. ¡®It seems that he doesn¡¯t want to find her back. They probably left her alone deliberately. Poor Cassie.¡® The prince consort was Darren Yates, Cassandra¡¯s biological father. Keh noticed that something was wrong with Darren and thought his words were suggesting something. Darren suddenly smiled, ¡°I also think I¡¯ve seen you before. You look somewhat like me.¡± Darren was not sure whether the man in front of him was his nephew. Kayden said casually, not as enthusiastic as before, ¡°Well, we are both Clusian. We both look Chapter 265 friendly.¡± Keh suddenly said, ¡°Since the Queen is in an emergency now, we should leave you alone. If she is out of danger, please ask Vincent to send me a message.¡± Darren nodded. ¡°Okay. Bye.¡± After saying that, Darren continued to stare at the door of the emergency room. Keh said, ¡°Kayden, let¡¯s go.¡± What he said surprised Kayden and Darren. It might be a coincidence if they just looked like each other. But their surnames were the same. It couldn¡¯t be a coincidence. Kayden must be Darren¡¯s nephew. But when Darren figured it out, Kayden and Keh were gone. Soon, the door of the emergency room was opened. He forgot about Kayden and Keh. Instead, he grabbed the doctor¡¯s hands and asked, ¡°How is my wife doing now?¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry, sir. Her Majesty is fine. She¡¯s just a little emotional.¡± The doctor frowned, ¡°She will die in three months if the poison inside her can¡¯t be removed.¡± Darren almost lost his bnce. He said in a somewhat trembling voice, ¡°Didn¡¯t she take the special effect medicine? The poison has been suppressed.¡± The doctor said, ¡°Yes, but Her Majesty had been too emotional recently. It is no longer effective. The spreading of the toxicity has been elerated.¡± The doctor also felt very helpless. He had been working with his team to treat the Queen for more than ten years but she didn¡¯t get much better. Once she got better, things would quickly change. The princess who used to be wild, lively, and confident, was totally a different person now. Darren said, ¡°Is there any other way?¡± He didn¡¯t believe that Leanna would be dead in three 3/5 Chapter 265 months. He wanted to be with her forever. They hadn¡¯t found their daughter yet. They had agreed that after they defeated Kam, they would leave Zosteylor to their sons and go back to Clusia to find their daughter. However, the situation was different now. +5 ¡°Well, I don¡¯t know if it will work out.¡± The doctor sighed, ¡°But there is a miracle doctor, Dr. Quirke, who may be from Clusia. He is an expert in traditional medicine. People of the dark web said that he could even save a patient who stopped breathing. If you can find Dr. Quirke, the Queen might be saved.¡± This was probably Darren¡¯sst chance. If he could find the miracle doctor, Leanna would at least live longer. If he couldn¡¯t find the doctor, Leanna was likely to die before New Year¡¯s Eve. Darren said, ¡°Okay, I will find the doctor. I¡¯ll find Dr. Quirke as soon as possible whatever it takes.¡± Darren looked firm. As long as there was a glimmer of hope, he wouldn¡¯t give up. On the way back to the camp, Keh suddenly asked in a deep voice, ¡°Is that man Cassie¡¯s biological father?¡± Kayden was stunned for a moment and then he smiled faintly. He thought, ¡°Keh is smart enough to notice something. He must have guessed it.¡± ¡°Yeah.¡± Kayden said sarcastically, ¡°It turns out that in the past 19 years, he has been the prince consort and living a happy life.¡± Keh frowned, ¡°Don¡¯t let Cassie know about this.¡± If he had been Cassandra, he would have wanted to destroy the world after knowing the truth. Cassandra, who had stopped believing in family, would find it even more uneptable. Kayden said, ¡°I don¡¯t want her to know either.¡± He thought. Tell her what? Her parents are leaders of Zosteylor. And she has a twin brother who grows up with them? ¡®Harper is about 18 years old, about the same age as Cassie. ¡®Cassie hates her parents. If she knew this, she would break down.¡¯ Keh wanted to confirm it again. ¡°Are you sure he is Cassie¡¯s father?¡± Kayden said, ¡°I can¡¯t be wrong. If you don¡¯t believe it, why don¡¯t we steal Harper and Cassie¡¯s hair and do a test?¡± Kayden was advice was ridiculous. Keh said, ¡°Let¡¯s just keep it a secret for now.¡± Chapter 266 Chapter 266 When Keh and the other two returned to the camp, Cassandra was in front of herputer with her fingers typing fast. She still looked very serious. It seemed that something bad was happening. Keh hurriedly walked to her and asked, ¡°Cassie, what happened?¡± Cassandra said, ¡°A group of people are attacking the surveince system of the camp. Another group of people wants to hack my mini¨Cprogram and master all the surveince information of this country. I haven¡¯t figured out who these two groups of people are!¡± Cassandra was still typing. She didn¡¯t stop typing for a brief moment. People beside her were waiting to witness a historic moment. Cassandra suddenly shouted, ¡°Jeremiah, catch that bastard!¡± Jeremiah replied, ¡°All right!¡± People who had been fighting with Cassandra and Jeremiah began to carry out Cassandra¡¯s n, surrounding these people in the middle. Now it was time to put an end to it. About another hour or soter, Keh was still standing beside Cassandra. He did not leave. He asionally handed her water and food. He knew Cassandra had an uphill battle to fight so he decided to take care of everything else. More than a dozen people in the information security department were fighting with Cassandra. They could take turns to support her but Cassandra couldn¡¯t. No one could rece her. Eight hourster, a message finally popped up on Cassandra¡¯sputer: Defense Seeded. She pressed enter and breathed a sigh of relief. ¡°Ahhh!¡± Chapter 266 ¡°Wow! We seeded!¡± Jeremiah smiled like a child. He said excitedly, ¡°ine, you are amazing!¡± Cassandra stood up and felt a little dizzy. She leaned against Keh and said angrily, ¡°I don¡¯t need you to remind me of that.¡± +5 Keh was happy to be Cassandra¡¯s support. He took out a chocte bar from his pocket, ¡°Get replenished. I¡¯ll take you to dinner.¡± Nine hours had passed after he came back. They had been working before he came back. Cassandra had low blood sugar and being hungry was bad for her. Cassandra said, ¡°Okay.¡± After eating the chocte, she seemed to feel a little bit more energetic. Yannick couldn¡¯t help but ask curiously, ¡°Ms. Yates, who is the bastard that you were looking for?¡± Jeremiah said with a mysterious smile, ¡°If you beg me, I¡¯ll tell you!¡± Yannick was speechless. Yannick hooked his finger and said with a wicked smile, ¡°I¡¯ll beg you if youe here.¡± Jeremiah walked to Yannick proudly. Before Yannick realized what was happening, Yannick wrapped his arm around his neck. Yannick said, ¡°How dare you ask me to beg you? Do you think you can force me to do anything? Tell me now!¡± Since Jeremiah knew it, he didn¡¯t want to bother Cassandra. Yannick was still wrapping his arm around Jeremiah¡¯s neck. Jeremiah felt like he couldn¡¯t even breathe. He shouted, ¡°Let go of me!¡± Yannick said, ¡°If you don¡¯t tell me, I won¡¯t let go of you!¡± Jeremiah said, ¡°If you don¡¯t let go of me, I won¡¯t tell you!¡± Chapter 266 They were in a stalemate. When they were bored of it, they found that they were left alone in the tent. In Cassandra¡¯s tent, Keh fetched two lunch boxes and said, ¡°Hurry up, I brought you two extra drumsticks.¡± They had to make do given the current harsh environment. Cassandra said, ¡°Okay,¡± Cassandra was hungry. She began to cram down the food. The moment she ate the carbs, she felt like she was back to life again. She was in a much better mood. ¡°How does your negotiation end?¡± Keh said, ¡°Well, not bad except for a minor ident.¡± Cassandra raised her eyebrow curiously. Keh said, ¡°Her Majesty was suddenly attacked by her illness and fainted. The negotiation was about toe to an end so we came back.¡± Keh exined everything to her patiently. Hearing his exnation, Cassandra nodded. After eating some food, Keh had a meeting with Kayden, Daniel, Jeremiah, and Yannick. They summoned the negotiation to find out how to make both sides satisfied. Yannick said, ¡°Kam is ridiculous. They want us to get involved in their dispute with Zosteylor. ¡°I don¡¯t think we need to respond to this. There is something that can make Kampromise. At least, we can skip those unreasonable conditions.¡± Jeremiah turned on aputer and opened a video. It showed that it was Kam¡¯s men who attacked the Falcon Special Operations Force¡¯s 3/5 Chapter 266 camp. And it was also Kam¡¯s men who wanted to take down ine¡¯s mini¨Cprogram and control Zosteylor. As long as this video was made public, what Kam did would be offending Clusia and basically dering war. Before Keh could say anything, Yannick asked, ¡°Where did you get this?¡± Jeremiah said, ¡°Who do you think is the bastard? There were so many people attacking ine¡¯s mini¨C program. They must have a leader. The leader is the bastard. This bastard happens to be hired by Kam. It cost a lot of money. Naturally, her purposes were made very clear to the bastard.¡± Keh nodded. He thought this was usible. Daniel volunteered and decided to negotiate with Kam in person. Kayden hadn¡¯t said a word. Suddenly, he said, ¡°I would like to switch to another team. I want to go with Daniel to negotiate with Kam.¡± He didn¡¯t want to go to the Queen¡¯s Pce again. He was afraid that if what happened today happened again, he might go crazy. He felt so sad for Cassandra. +5 At night, the camp was quiet. Cassandra and Keh were on duty tonight. It was obviously Yannick who arranged this. Cassandra suddenly said, ¡°Ken, let¡¯s have a vacation after the Evacuation Operation is over.¡± Every time she was away from home in the past few months, she was fighting with Keh. All she could remember now was rted to the battles. It was quite a special experience. Keh gently said, ¡°Okay, but the shooting of Hello, Life is about to start. I guess we have to do it before having a vacation.¡± He was now the biggest sponsor of this variety show so he would know everything earlier than the artists. Chapter 266 ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org . +5 Cassandra smiled mildly, ¡°That¡¯s fine.¡± Keh suddenly found that she was not in a good mood. Keh asked with concern, ¡°You seem to be in a bad mood. What¡¯s happening?¡± Cassandra shrugged casually. ¡°I just had a nightmare. I am a bit affected by it. That¡¯s all.¡± Keh moved closer to Cassandra. ¡°What kind of nightmare? Tell me and I¡¯ll exin to you the reason why you had this dream.¡± Cassandra said, ¡°I dreamed that I was a little kid. There was another baby beside me but I didn¡¯t know who he was. I saw a pregnant woman take him away and leave me there.¡± If it had been someone else, it wouldn¡¯t even have been counted as a nightmare. Keh wondered whether Cassandra was abandoned in her dream. Chapter 267 Chapter 267 Keh was surprised. They had just met her parents. Cassandra dreamed about them the day before. If there hadn¡¯t been so much work to do, she might have been absent¨Cminded all day long. In her dream, she was even abandoned when she was still a baby. Keh said, ¡°It¡¯s just a dream. Don¡¯t take it seriously. Cassie, you¡¯re the best. They were unlucky to lose you.¡± Keh gently rubbed her head, held her in his arms, andforted her. Cassandra was supposed to be an aristocrat but God fooled her. Cassandra smiled gently, ¡°I guess only you and Jeremiah think I¡¯m the best.¡± She thought, ¡®And Hugo and people of Modern Beacon Synergy! Keh praised Jeremiah, which was rare. ¡°Great minds think alike.¡± He knew how important Jeremiah was to Cassandra. Fortunately, Jeremiah only wanted to be her friend. So Keh didn¡¯t treat him like a rival. Suddenly, Keh received a message on WhatsApp. Vincent: [My mother is fine. Thanks for your concern.] It was a message from Vincent. It seemed that the Queen had been out of danger. He simply replied: [Received.] Although their private phones were taken away, they logged into their WhatsApp ounts using other devices just for the convenience of the information security department. Cassandra asked curiously, ¡°Who is it?¡± Keh exined, ¡°Vincent, the Queen suddenly fainted when we were negotiating. She is 1/5 Chapter 267 out of danger now.¡± There was no need to keep this message from Cassandra. Cassandra nodded. ¡°Good.¡± The night was a long one. Keh couldn¡¯t bear to let Cassandra suffer so he asked her to rest her head on his shoulder. In the darkness, they were silently supporting each other. In the Queen¡¯s Pce. Leanna woke up at midnight. Darren hurriedly helped her sit up and asked with concern, ¡°How are you feeling? Do you feel pain? I¡¯ll send for the doctor.¡± Leanna¡¯s face was very pale, her lips too. Her eyes were dull. She said, ¡°I¡¯m fine. Where is the chief of the Falcon Special Operations Force? I didn¡¯t faint because of them.¡± Darren sent someone to find the doctor. Hearing Leanna¡¯s exnation, he felt helpless. ¡°I knew. I didn¡¯t me them for it. They have left. We¡¯ll discuss it after you get better. Or, you can leave the rest to me.¡± He was surprised that his wife didn¡¯t believe him. But Leanna had a reason. Some time ago, when Kam attacked them, Leanna was discussing something with several generals. She was so exhausted that she fainted. Without hesitation, Darren beat those generals up. If they hadn¡¯t needed the generals to lead the army, he would have locked them up. Afterward, Darren didn¡¯t think that he had done anything wrong. So Leanna had to apologize to the generals herself. This time, she suddenly fainted again. She was not worried about her health but whether her husband had beaten up someone again. 207 If he really had done it, it was not a problem that could be solved by an apology. Keh was representing Clusia. They couldn¡¯t even touch a random Clusian citizen in Zosteylor. Leanna said, ¡°After they perfect the Evacuation Operation, we will have a negotiation again. Let Theodore handle it. He is a good choice.¡± After that, the doctor came in to examine the Queen. The doctor said, ¡°You already woke up so there is nothing serious. Keep happy and don¡¯t get too excited.¡± After the doctor went out, Darren couldn¡¯t help but warn Leanna. ¡°Did you hear the doctor? He said you couldn¡¯t get too excited. What did they say during the negotiation with the Falcon Special Operations Force today that agitated you?¡± Leanna remembered Keh¡¯s upset look. Darren felt a heartache. He said, ¡°What happened? Did someone from the Falcon Special Operations Force say something that upset you?¡± Leanna said, ¡°No, Mr. Zelinski said that I looked like one of his friends. I thought it could be our daughter. But she¡¯s not the same age as our daughter.¡± Darren was stunned. He never thought that it could be her daughter. After leaving their daughter in a hurry and returning to Leanna¡¯s home country, Leanna was sick. Harper was also on the brink of death. Darren didn¡¯t have time to think about his daughter at all. Leanna and Harper were both suffering after all. Besides, he had sent a message to his father. However, after Leanna and Harper were out of danger, he investigated the Yates family but didn¡¯t find a baby, let alone his daughter. His daughter disappeared. After Leanna knew this, she fainted. With the spreading of toxicity, she remained unconscious for the next two years. Zosteylor was Leanna¡¯s country had it was trapped by all kinds of problems. He had to take charge of it for her. He never found anything about his daughter. He had checked all the surveince videos. and babies that were born around that period of time. But he failed to find his child. They were in Zosteylor. If they wanted to do anything in Clusia, they had to go through a lot of procedures. And back then, they didn¡¯t dare to let anyone else know that they had been looking for their daughter.. After the deaths of Leanna¡¯s parents, the throne belonged to Leanna. But Kam disagreed with it. She repeatedly framed Leanna so that Leanna was away from the throne for a long time. Kam took advantage of Leanna¡¯s pregnancy and put poison in her food. To protect their children, Darren and Leanna escaped with Leanna¡¯s parents¡® token. But when Leanna gave birth to the babies, they received a fake token from Kam. Kam was ready to be enthroned. One of their babies was healthy and the other was sick. The healthy one was their daughter. Their son was born with the poison. To stop Kam¡¯s evil deeds, he had to leave with his wife and the poisoned baby. But he didn¡¯t expect that it would cause the tragedy of his daughter. They had been haunted by what they had done ever since. Darren gently stroked Leanna¡¯s cheeks. ¡°Don¡¯t think too much. We will find our daughter. Maybe Dr. Quirke can cure you. I have started to find his whereabouts. After the civil strife is solved and you and Harper are cured, we will go to Clusia and we will do everything to find our girl, okay?¡± They had tried to find her. They had sent people to Clusia and they had found a girl who looked like Leanna. But when they were about to do a DNA test, Kam¡¯s men killed the girl. No matter how secret they thought their action was, Kam would find it out and kill every girl they found that might be their daughter. This is property ? of N?velDrama.Org. So they had to give up. Too many girls had died because of Kam. There was no joy in Leanna¡¯s eyes. For so many years, she had seen a lot of doctors. She thought the miracle doctor that Darren just mentioned would only give her some medicines to make her live a bit longer and suffer a bit longer. But she thought it was not a bad idea. If she could find her daughter, she would have no regrets. Leanna said, ¡°Okay.¡± Early the next morning, Cassandra picked up her phone and saw a message from Hugo. [Ms. Yates, someone ced an order on the dark web to look for Dr. Quirke.] Chapter 268 Chapter 268 Cassandra simply replied: [No.] Now she was busy. She didn¡¯t have time to fulfill this order. Hugo sent another message: [The patient is in Zosteylor and the consultation fee is high.] Cassandra replied impatiently: [Don¡¯t make me refuse you twice.] Soon, Darren got a reply, saying that his order was cancelled. He looked at the reply and wanted to ask why it was canceled. But he found that he had been cklisted. He thought the doctor was really a mystery since he was refused so directly. Darren: [I can double the consultation fee again. Dr. Quirke, please consider it.] When Hugo received this message, he was surprised. He had cklisted Darren¡¯s ount so he didn¡¯t understand why he received another message from Darren. This is property ? of N?velDrama.Org. He thought someone must have hacked hisputer. Hugo immediately sent a message to Darren: [My master has refused it. No matter how much you offer, it¡¯s useless. Please find someone else. Wish the patient an early recovery.] Darren stared at the words on theputer and looked angry. He thought, ¡®Who is he? Why is he so proud? He¡¯s just a doctor. ¡®I was willing to pay him 4.8 billion dors, but he still refused! Is this Dr. Quirke a swindler?¡® He turned off theputer and went to find Leanna¡¯s doctor. Darren was very suspicious. He asked the doctor, ¡°Are you sure Dr. Quirke can save her?¡± He was willing to pay the miracle doctor a lot of money and he talked friendly so he thought he had made no mistake. But he was still refused. He thought the miracle doctor was definitely a swindler. The doctor was surprised but then he thought it was normal. ¡°Sir, you must have been rejected.¡± Darren snorted coldly and tacitly admitted it. The doctor adjusted his sses and said, feeling helpless, ¡°It¡¯s normal. It depends on Dr. Quirke¡¯s mood. If he is in a good mood, he will just take a few dors. But if he is in a bad mood, no matter how much money he is offered, he won¡¯t change his mind.¡± Darren thought, ¡°This is ridiculous!¡® Darren said, ¡°Tell me. What else can we do?¡± He could do anything for Leanna. The doctor said, ¡°No. ording to the rules of the dark web, you can ce an order or try to find Dr. Quirke through other channels. But don¡¯t harass his men. Otherwise, Dr. Quirke will turn against you and everyone will have a hard time.¡± Although the doctor had never met the miracle doctor, he had read almost all the messages on the dark web. Someone once harassed the doctor. His hand, which was about to be cured, was ruined. The doctor threatened, saying that it was a warning. There were so many rich and powerful people who thought they were different and the doctor should show more respect to them. But in the end, whoever harassed Hugo and Whitecrane Hall suffered a lot. He never saw the miracle doctor¡¯s face, but he knew clearly how skilled and cruel the doctor was. Darren thought for a long time. He came up with an idea. A few dayster, the Evacuation Operation of the Falcon Special Operations Force was finalized. Keh and Yannick went to the Queen¡¯s Pce together to give her a report. At the same time, Daniel, Kayden, and Jeremiah went to negotiate with Kam. Daniel and Kayden¡¯s experience was mainly conversations between superiors and subordinates. Jeremiah was better at negotiating. In the meeting room, Kam was sitting at one side of the table with her men. Daniel, Kayden, and Jeremiah were sitting at the other side of the table. Kam said first, ¡°I guess I haven¡¯t seen this guy. He wasn¡¯t ¡®herest time, was he?¡± Jeremiah was leading the negotiation. It was a decision after a discussion with Cassandra. Daniel unconditionally believed in Cassandra so he would only make some supplementary points and make the final decision. Jeremiah was fully responsible for the negotiation. Jeremiah nodded and said politely, pointing at Kayden, ¡°This is the captain of the Falcon Special Operations Force. The negotiation will be followed up by him and Daniel.¡± Kam smiled gently, ¡°Really? Do you agree to my terms then?¡± Her conditions meant to make Clusia sacrifice a lot. If she could get Clusia¡¯s support, it would be one step closer for her to sit on the throne in the Queen¡¯s Pce. Jeremiah leaned backzily in his chair and pointed at the table without saying anything. Daniel and Kayden both stared at Daniel. They thought, ¡°This guy¡¯s starting to fake it.¡± Jeremiah shook his head. ¡°No.¡± Kam pushed everything in front of her expression instantly changed. ¡°Then there¡¯s nothing to negotiate.¡± Jeremiah said, ¡°I think we still have a lot to talk about, such as a cooperation project. Or, let¡¯s go to the international court and talk about how you stole Clusia¡¯s secret information?¡± Jeremiah had everything given by ine. He thought he would sell The Urban if he couldn¡¯t nail this negotiation. He thought it would be a great humiliation. He should have learned a lot from ine. He must seed even though ine was not here. Kam¡¯s expression changed. She turned to Jeremiah with an unfriendly look. She even looked shocked. She thought, ¡®How did they find it? How could it be possible? I hired the No.2 hacker on the ranking list. They couldn¡¯t find it so easily. She thought Jeremiah might just be bluffing. It was a negotiation after all. Kam asked coldly, ¡°Steal Clusia¡¯s secret information? This is serious. Mr. Lawson, do you have any evidence?¡± Jeremiah looked at Daniel and said seriously, ¡°If I had no evidence, I wouldn¡¯t say that. Mr. Walker, the chief of Clusia¡¯s information security department, was sitting in front of you. Do you think I would make a joke about it? Mr. Walker said nothing because he wanted to leave this to me. Once he said something, it would be a dispute between Clusia and you.¡± Kam looked sullen. How could she forget that Daniel was the chief of the information security department? It was easy for him to get all kinds of information. She nced at the hacker whom she invited to be here. The hacker looked disdainful. Obviously, he didn¡¯t believe it. The hacker said, ¡°You said you had evidence. Then show us the evidence. Don¡¯t try to y tricks,¡± He didn¡¯t believe that someone could solve his maze except for Emery. But it was absolutely impossible because Emery had already announced that she would quit. How could she work for Clusia? Jeremiah tapped on the table and the tip of his tongue swept across his teeth. He suddenly chuckled. Kam was scared by it. ¡°What¡¯s so funny?¡± Jeremiah turned to Kam and said coldly, ¡°I was just reminded of something funny.¡± ¡°If I don¡¯t have evidence, do you think I will lie to you?¡± Jeremiah smiled, ¡°The reason why I haven¡¯t shown it to you is because I want to give you a chance to modify the terms. ¡°Isn¡¯t it more convenient to get a friend than an enemy? Clusian soldiers aremitted to defending Clusia. If the safety of Clusian citizens in Zosteylor is threatened again, we will not just have a peaceful negotiation with you.¡± The truce between Kam and the Queen wasing to an end. They must bring Clusian citizens home before it. Chapter 269 Chapter 269 Kam looked bad. Kam said, ¡°I haven¡¯t done it. If Mr. Lawson and the Falcon Special Operations Force want to frame me, I think we¡¯d better take it to the international court.¡± Kam still believed that they couldn¡¯t find any evidence of her attacking Falcon Special Operations Force so fast. Even if they had, now they were in her territory. She was not afraid at all. Daniel and Kayden looked at each other. Daniel wanted to say something but Jeremiah didn¡¯t look at him, which meant that Jeremiah was confident that he could solve it. Jeremiah said, ¡°Well, since you don¡¯t believe me, I have no choice but to submit the surveince videos, voice recordings, as well as the IP address of the attacker.¡± Jeremiah took out a USB sh drive from his pocket and fiddled with it. ¡°When it bes an international issue, I wonder if you will still be soposed.¡± Kam¡¯s eyes were fixed on the USB sh drive. She red at the hacker whom she had invited to be here. The hacker banged on the table and shouted, ¡°Don¡¯t me us for things that we haven¡¯t done.¡± Jeremiah threw the USB sh disk at the hacker and said, ¡°Since you don¡¯t believe me, check it out yourself.¡± He kindly warned the hacker. ¡°Don¡¯t try to destroy it. This is just a copy. No one can steal the original files from Emery.¡± The hacker¡¯s hand that was holding the USB sh drive paused. He thought, ¡®What did he just say? ¡®Emery? ¡°The person who has been helping them is Emery! She is working for Clusia? ¡®If Emery is really helping them, there is absolutely evidence inside the sh drive. I can¡¯tpete with Emery, which is something I hate to think about most. Chapter 209 The hacker said, ¡°Do you think I¡¯ll believe you?¡± Jeremiah felt speechless. He thought, ¡®Is there something wrong with him? Is he really a genius? He can¡¯tpete. with ine but he ranks second on the best hackers list.¡¯ What a sarcastic thing! Jeremiah said, ¡°Believe it or not, you have the evidence now. Check it out.¡± The hacker suddenly hesitated and turned to Kam. He noticed that she looked gloomy and even murderous. Bang! With a gunshot, the hacker fell directly to the ground. It was Kam who fired the shot. She took out her handkerchief and wiped the pistol. She didn¡¯t look indifferent or murderous anymore. She gave a soft smile. ¡°I¡¯m so sorry. I didn¡¯t expect that he would do such an absurd thing. Now it has been solved. Let¡¯s get over it.¡± She sat down calmly as if what had happened just now was an illusion. Jeremiah¡¯s eyes darkened. He lowered his head and then suddenly raised it again. ¡°Then. how do you want to talk about it?¡± ¡°After all, I made a mistake. I agree with the Evacuation Operation that Clusia proposed.¡± Kam hesitated for a while and said, ¡°However, there are only three days left for us. You must evacuate them all in three days. After the truce ends, if any Clusian gets hurt, it has nothing to do with me.¡± Jeremiah said, ¡°Okay, but the three days start three dayster.¡± Kam¡¯s expression immediately changed again. ¡°Don¡¯t push your luck.¡± She was like a chameleon. ¡°We¡¯re not pushing our luck. We just want to give each other more time.¡± Jeremiah looked down at his phone. ¡°It¡¯s October 2nd in Zosteylor. Three dayster, it will be October 5th and October 8th another three dayster. We will evacuate everyone before 11:59 p.m.¡± Kam was furious. ¡°You don¡¯t think you¡¯re ridiculous? You have six days!¡± She didn¡¯t expect that she would be at a disadvantage. ¡°Let¡¯s take the three more days as yourpensation. Don¡¯t worry, our operation will start on the 5th and we won¡¯t start earlier than that.¡± Jeremiah ignored Kam¡¯s gloomy face and said, ¡°It seems that you have no objection.¡± Jeremiah stood up and helped Daniel stand up. Jeremiah took Kam and Daniel¡¯s hand. Then Kam and Daniel shook hands with each other. Daniel said, ¡°Thank you for your understanding. Clusia will always remember you. We will certainly sing a praise for you.¡± Jeremiah looked at Kam¡¯s eyes, which were full of rage. Jeremiah said, ¡°Since you have no objection, it¡¯s a deal.¡± Jeremiah gave Kam no chance to refuse him. He asked Daniel to sign and seal the documents of the Evacuation Operation and then handed the documents to Kam. Jeremiah said, ¡°What are you waiting for? Sign your name!¡± He patted Kam on the shoulder and thought, ¡®Damn it! Move!¡± Finally, Kam realized what was happening and pressed a gun against Jeremiah¡¯s head. Kam said fiercely, ¡°Believe it or not, I¡¯ll shoot you.¡± She looked like she would shoot him the next second. ¡°Don¡¯t you dare?¡± Jeremiah wasn¡¯t scared of her gun at all. ¡°If you shoot me here, you will not only have to face the Queen¡¯s attack but also Clusian soldiers. Think about it. Is it worthwhile? If you want to kill me, do it. But think about what kind of situation you will be 1. in. ¡°You will be surrounded by the Queen of Zosteylor, her sons, and Clusian soldiers. Guess if it will be an amazing thing. Kam¡¯s hand paused. She was lost in thought. Everyone in the world knew how protective Clusia¡¯s leaders were. Everyone knew not to pick a person from a powerful country. Kam said, ¡°Do as you say. But if you start the Evacuation Operation earlier, I will regard it as a breach of contract and the agreement will be nullified.¡± Kam was not afraid of killing at all. But she couldn¡¯t kill a Clusian citizen. Kam signed the agreement and Jeremiah secretly breathed a slight sigh of relief. He smiled brightly, ¡°I know you¡¯re a straightforward person. Clusia loves to make friends with people like you. I¡¯ll show you around in Drieso.¡± With the agreement in his hand, Jeremiah thought his task was finallypleted. Kam didn¡¯t want to see him anymore so she asked them to leave as soon as possible. On the way back to the camp, Kayden couldn¡¯t help but ask, ¡°Weren¡¯t you afraid that Kam would shoot you?¡± Jeremiah said, ¡°I was! But it could not change anything. I can¡¯t disgrace the Falcon Special Operations Force.¡± He thought, ¡®I can¡¯t disgrace ine either.¡®¡± Kayden snorted, ¡°I thought you were afraid of nothing.¡± But he actually admired Jeremiah a lot. Daniel, who was sitting in the back seat, suddenly said, ¡°Jeremiah, why don¡¯t youe to work for the National Security Bureau? I think I need a talent like you.¡± Kayden joked, ¡°Daniel, it¡¯s inappropriate to poach people from Falcon Special Operations. Force.¡± Daniel asked, ¡°Why?¡± Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. At the same time, Keh and the Queen had reached an agreement. As long as Kam didn¡¯t suddenly start a war, they would never fire and let Clusia do the Evacuation Operation. Keh readily agreed. Suddenly, Darren came in to bring Leanna a bottle of water and her medicines. Darren looked at these negotiators. ¡°Mr. Zelinski, why isn¡¯t the young man who came with youst time here today?¡± Chapter 270 Chapter 270 Keh pretended not to know anything about it and said respectfully, ¡°I have arranged other tasks for him. He won''t join us for the time being.¡± Darren asked tentatively, ¡°Really? | heard you call him Kayden the other day. His name sounds familiar to me. Is he from Drieso?¡± Keh said, ¡°Yes, he is from Drieso. But you can find a bunch of people who are called Kayden. It¡¯s amon name.¡± ¡°Really? It exins a lot.¡± Darren sighed, ¡°I haven¡¯te back to Drieso for so many years. | wonder how Drieso is developed now. Keh said, ¡°You can go back when you get the chance.¡± Keh turned to Leanna. ¡°Your Majesty, since the problem has been solved. Let¡¯s just follow our n. When the springes, we wille back to this beautiful country. | will pray for its peace.¡± Keh didn¡¯t want to stay here to discuss Kayden with Darren. As Kayden said, Darren, his wife, and their sons had lived here for 18 years but never tried to find Cassandra. Keh thought there was no need to let Cassandra know this. She had him now and that was enough. It would be good if everything stayed the same. Keh thought he should thank them. If they hadn¡¯t abandoned Cassandra, he wouldn''t have met her. Keh said, ¡°Thank you.¡±Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. Keh returned to the camp and found that Kayden and others were also there. After they exchanged information with each other, they worked out a detailed n. The negotiation was finally over. At present, more than 98% of the Clusian citizens who 1/15 they could find had gathered in the conste. There were still a small number of people left in dangerous ces. But with Clusia¡¯s g, no one would hurt them during the truce. The Falcon Special Operations Force, along with the army, started to search for the rest. Keh finally could spend some time with Cassandra. He said, ¡°I¡¯ve been busy these days. | must have neglected you.¡± He held Cassandra in his arms. Although it was already autumn, it was still hot. After a while, he sweated. Cassandra pushed him away and said displeased, ¡°It¡¯s hot.¡± Cassandra was bothered by the heat, which Keh had noticed long ago. Throughout the summer, there were always watermelons in her refrigerator and the temperature in her room remained very low. Therefore, after she arrived here, she had been having a hard time. There were not many fans in the camp. He put two of them in her tent, which had reached the limit so that she could sleep better at night. Cassandra said casually, ¡°We both have work to do. Don¡¯t say that again.¡± Keh took Cassandra¡¯s hand and walked toward the door. ¡°Let me take you out fora walk.¡± Cassandra asked, ¡°Have you arranged everything?¡± Keh said, ¡°Yeah.¡± He thought his girlfriend was too patriotic. They finally get a chance to spend some time with each other but all she talked about was national affairs. Keh noticed that she looked worried. ¡°I feel that you are a little absent-minded. What happened?¡± Cassandra was in low spirits. She kicked the little stones at her feet and said, ¡°Nothing. Howard and the instructor each sent me a message today saying that there would be mid- term exams at the end of October.¡± She thought, ¡®If | tell Howard that | haven''t read the physics textbooks, will he kill me with a knife? Keh didn¡¯t believe it. ¡°That¡¯s it?¡± He didn¡¯t believe that the best student in this country would have anxiety about exams. He thought, ¡®How can the others survive?¡¯ Cassandra said, ¡°What else can it be?¡± Keh¡¯s tone changed. ¡°It¡¯s easy for you, isn¡¯t it?¡± He knew it was a piece of cake for her. Cassandra said, ¡°But | haven''t even opened the books. | don¡¯t know what they have learned in the physics sses.¡± She thought, ¡®I have almost forgotten what | learned in traditional medicine sses, let alone physics sses. It was all theoretical knowledge without any practical use. It¡¯s so boring.¡¯ Keh felt speechless. Keh said apologetically, ¡°Don¡¯t worry. We can go back in a few days. But the vacation that | promised is probably not going to happen.¡± He was a soldier so he couldn¡¯t do whatever he wanted. Cassandra said, ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter. This is already a thrilling vacation.¡± She didn¡¯t think it was a big deal or she was having a hard time here. Instead, she enjoyed it here. They wandered around hand in hand for about two hours. When they went back, they saw a group of people standing outside the camp. They pushed each other as if they were watching a show. Seeing Kehing, they began to shout excitedly! ¡°Wow!¡± ¡°Mr. Zelinski has been hiding it from us!¡± ¡°Hand in hand! Mr. Zelinski should work harder. Hand in hand is not enough!¡± Chapt ¡°Kiss her! Kiss her!¡± When Kayden turned to Keh again, she felt that something was wrong. Kayden thought, ¡°This guy is much older than her! ¡®Cassie is a fragile little girl. Why is she in love with a man who is nine years older than her?¡¯ Cassandra frowned. She was not used to this kind of thing: She didn¡¯t expect this at all. Keh looked at Cassandra and asked, encouraged by hisrades, ¡°Cassie, can | do it?¡± He couldn''t refuse when everyone was so enthusiastic. Cassandra red at Keh. She snorted in her mind, ¡®Are you trying to take advantage of me? But somehow, she was looking forward to it. Finally, Keh kissed Cassandra on the cheek being stared at by everyone else. The crowd was even more excited but they were afraid that Cassandra would get angry. Cassandra said, ¡°You are free? Complete 200ps around the foot of this mountain.¡± The content is on noveldrama.org! Read thetest chapter there! Everyone was instantly quiet. Sure enough, they were the same kind of person. The way that they threatened people was the same. 200ps! Why not just kill them like how ancient emperors did? 200ps would be too cruel. The crowd dispersed quickly. In the following few days, they were even busier. They sent Clusian people to safe ces in batches and then transferred them to Clusia. When they were ready to leave, it was already the eighth day. Harper finally found the camp. ¡°Hello, I¡¯m looking for Cassandra. I¡¯m her ssmate. Please tell her that | am here.¡± Cassandra happened to be walking out. She saw Harper. She walked to him and asked, ¡°Why are you here?¡± Harper said, ¡°Cassandra, Clusia¡¯s army has retreated. | thought you would soon leave so | wanted to see you off. Thank you for bringing peace to my country.¡± The content is on noveldrama.org! Read thetest chapter there! As soon as Harper finished his words, the impatience in Cassandra¡¯s eyes instantly disappeared. But some complicated emotions overwhelmed her. The content is on noveldrama.org! Read thetest chapter there! Cassandra asked in confusion, ¡°Your country is at war. You are safe in Drieso. Why did youe back?¡± She thought, ¡®Is it because of his family? ¡®But isn¡¯t family the most unreliable thing?* Harper said, ¡°My family and the citizens of my country all are here. As the prince, | should stay with them.¡± Cassandra nodded helplessly. ¡°This is a gift for you.¡± Harper handed a gift to Cassandra and said, ¡°I¡¯m very happy that | was once your ssmate.¡± Chapter 271 Chapter 271 Cassandra didn¡¯t look as disgusted as before. Instead, she looked peaceful and there was a hint of admiration in her eyes. No matter how evil this person was and whether he had a hidden agenda, at this moment, at least, he chose his family and his nation. In this regard, he was admirable. Cassandra took the gift from him. She didn¡¯t know how to smile properly on such an asion so she sighed and said expressionlessly, ¡°Thank you. I hope you will soon have a truce and bring peace to the nation.¡± It was a country with abundant resources and obviously a powerful developing country. However, due to internal turmoil, ordinary people were suffering while elites¡® lives stayed the same. Cassandra didn¡¯t know what was right or wrong about Zosteylor¡¯s civil strife but she knew in the end, ordinary people were the most innocent. Harper smiled mildly, ¡°Thank you.¡± He suddenly raised his head and asked softly, ¡°I¡¯ll go back to school. Will you stop hating me? I just want to be your friend. I¡¯m a fan.¡± Cassandra was speechless. After a while, she nodded. As for why Cassandra agreed, she didn¡¯t even know the answer. Harper bared his teeth in a grin happily, revealing his two canine teeth. ¡°That¡¯s good.¡± It was quite cute. He added, ¡°I wish you a safe journey.¡± The Evacuation Operation was ongoing. Although Kam agreed to the three¨Cday appointment, she had caused many troubles for them after that, dying the progress of the operation. But it made sense. They had disagreements but she was threatened to reach an agreement. So, it seemed that she was only angrier. In the past few days, they did everything to stop people from being sent to the conste, setting fires, causing car idents, and imprisoning people though they took care of the Chapter 271 food and water. However, Harper had a secret weapon, Cassandra. Cassandra could urately find everyone¡¯s location to buy time for the rescue. If car idents happened or roads were ruined, she could devise alternative ns in time so that the rescue team could take a shortcut. In the face of a lot of difficulties, Falcon Special Operations Force and the army worked together to send people to the conste on time. The n was implemented in batches using different vehicles. Finally, at 11:00 p.m. on October 8th, thest batch of people were on the ne. When the ne took off, everyone in the Falcon Special Operations Force breathed a sigh of relief. ¡°Wow!¡± ¡°Ahhhhh!¡± ¡°It¡¯s finally over.¡± Fortunately, this time, there were no shots fired and everything went well. ¡°When are we heading back?¡± ¡°Now!¡± ¡°Now?¡± ¡°Yes.¡± Cassandra was stunned. She thought, ¡®It¡¯s so fast this time.¡¯ Keh asked everyone to gather around him. He stood in the middle and said seriously, ¡°Mission completed. Pack your things. We¡¯ll leave in half an hour.¡± Someone asked, ¡°Commander Zelinski, we haven¡¯t finished everything.¡± Zelinski said, ¡°The rest will be left to the army. We have things to deal with back home.¡± 2/5 There were a few things to be done now. He received an order from his superior that demanded Falcon Special Operations Force to return home as soon as possible. The secret weapon of the state was the safest only when it was at home. Everyone else said, ¡°Yes, sir!¡± Half an hourter, everyone packed up their things and got on the ne. After a few hours, they finallynded in Drieso and Daniel returned their phones. After Cassandra turned on her phone, she found countless missed calls, including a call from Whitecrane Hall¡¯s emergency number. She automatically ignored the other missed calls and messages and dialed Whitecrane Hall¡¯s emergency number. Cassandra asked, ¡°What happened?¡± Jeremiah turned on his phone and found a missed call from the same number. He walked toward Cassandra in a hurry and said, ¡°Cassie.¡± Cassandra suddenly said, ¡°What did you say?¡± Her expression instantly changed. She looked cold and indifferent. Cassandra asked, ¡°When did it happen?¡± After a while, she said, ¡°Okay.¡± Cassandra hung up the phone. Jeremiah said, ¡°ine, what is going on? I turned on my phone and saw¡­¡± Cassandra said, ¡°Hugo is missing.¡± She took out a phone from her bag and began to search for things about Hugo. Daniel was talking with someone, not far away from her. Seeing that Cassandra looked solemn, he walked toward her. ¡°Emery, this is¡­¡± Before he could finish his words, Jeremiah pulled him away and said, ¡°Don¡¯t disturb her. She is looking for someone.¡± Since theynded directly at a base of the Falcon Special Operations Force, the team was quickly dismissed and someone would take care of the report. Keh walked to Cassandra and noticed that she looked nervous. He asked worriedly, ¡°Cassie, what¡¯s wrong?¡± Cassandra ignored him and went on with her work. Suddenly, she said, ¡°I¡¯m going to Whitecrane Hall.¡± Jeremiah immediately said, ¡°I¡¯ll go with you.¡± Hugo¡¯s disappearance was a big deal and he could not just stand by and do nothing. Keh said, ¡°I¡¯ll give you a ride.¡± He thought something bad must have happened. He hadn¡¯t seen this kind of look on Cassandra for a long time. Cassandra kept typing desperately on theputer along the way. Her fingers moved fast. After arriving at Whitecrane Hall, Cassandra didn¡¯t say anything but directly rushed into Hugo¡¯s office. She skillfully opened the dark web channel to find the person who ced the order. She saw the message that tripled the price but Hugo replied to it with a rejection. Cassandra said, ¡°I¡¯m going to Zosteylor.¡± She had found out who had kidnapped Hugo. With a little hacking of this information, she could find out who it was. It was the Queen¡¯s Pce in Zosteylor. Cassandra wondered why they took Hugo away and who on earth they wanted to save. Jeremiah stood in front of her to block her way. ¡°Tell me what is going on.¡± He only knew that Hugo was missing and nothing else. Cassandra turned to Jeremiah and then Keh and found that they both looked worried. She lowered her guard and put her backpack on the ground. ¡°It¡¯s the Queen¡¯s Pce in Zosteylor. They kidnapped Hugo because I refused their order during the operation.¡± They didn¡¯t intend to obey the rules of the dark web at all. They not only drove up the consultation fees but also broke her rules, harassed Hugo, and kidnapped him. ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org . Cassandra thought, ¡®Are they forcing me to show up?¡® Keh was stunned. He thought, ¡®Queen¡¯s Pce?¡® He said in a deep voice, ¡°I think they¡¯re looking for Dr. Quirke to cure the Queen.¡± Everyone else in the Queen¡¯s Pce was healthy. The only sick one was the Queen. Those people kidnapped Hugo to force Cassandra to show up to save the Queen. Keh thought, ¡®Darren, how will you feel if you know the person you¡¯re threatening is actually your daughter?¡® Chapter 272 Chapter 272 Keh suddenly hesitated. He didn¡¯t know if he should tell Cassandra what he and Kayden had seen in the Queen¡¯s Pce. He opened his mouth, not knowing how to put it. Cassandra snorted coldly, ¡°Well, | can treat her. But | will decide whether she ends up alive or dead.¡±Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. The indifference in her eyes was a bit terrifying and her deep eyes became dull. Keh said, ¡°I''ll go with you. | have something to tell you.¡± Keh felt sad for Cassandra. He decided to tell her everything that he knew and leave the final decision to her. What he had to do was give her support unconditionally. Cassandra looked up at Keh, curious about what he was going to say. Keh said calmly, ¡°Let¡¯s go and eat. Hugo will be fine.¡± He thought there was no hurry. Jeremiah couldn''t help but ask curiously, ¡°How do you know that Hugo will be fine?¡± Keh said, ¡°Don¡¯t worry. ¡°Let''s have something first. Then we''ll take my private jet. It is going through a check-up now. Don¡¯t worry.¡± Jeremiah drove the car toward a restaurant. Keh was sitting in the back seat with Cassandra. He took out his phone and sent a message to Vincent. [If Darren wants to save the Queen, he¡¯d better take care of Hugo. He has broken Dr. Quirke¡¯s rules. Think about how to persuade Dr. Quirke to save her.] Vincent was confused when he received the news. But Keh was not the kind of person who liked to joke. Since he had already sent this Chapter 272 message, it meant that it was true. Vincent wondered how Keh knew his father¡¯s name was Darren. Darren hid everything about him after all. Vincent found Darren and said to him respectfully, ¡°Dad, did you kidnap someone called Hugo?¡± Darren was stunned. He asked in a deep voice, ¡°How do you know?¡± Vincent had never seen anything on the dark web so he didn¡¯t know a lot of things. He said, ¡°Dad, why? What rules did you break?¡± Darren looked bad. He said loudly, ¡°Yes, | broke the rules. So what? All | know is that as long as | kidnap him, Dr. Quirke will show up. He can save your mother.¡± ¡°Treat him well or you will regret it.¡± Vincent thought that his father was a bit too obstinate. ¡°You just want Dr. Quirke to save Mom. If you hurt Hugo, you will be challenged with a lot more problems.¡± Vincent was also worried about his mother and Harper. It had always been like a grief for Theodore and Vincent. But Vincent''s father always taught them not to go against their conscience or do something immoral or things that vited thew. Vincent thought, ¡®What is he doing now? If anyone else knows, it will be a disaster. This is a felony. ¡°The person who sent me this message is Keh. So, he must have the evidence. ¡®Dad is really good at making us trouble.¡± Darren said angrily, ¡°As long as Dr. Quirke appears, | will definitely not hurt Hugo. After all, he is about the same age as me. Why would | do that?¡± He only broke the rules for Leanna. Dr. Quirke refused his order several times so he thought he had no choice but tomit a crime. As long as Dr. Quirke was willing to treat Leanna, he would do anything even if Cassandra wanted to shoot him. Emergency calls only... Chapter 272 But the premise was that Leanna must be cured. 100% 15:02 Cassandra had no appetite at all. She didn¡¯t want to eat anything. She took a few bites and then put down her fork. Keh was distressed. He put her fork aside and said, ¡°If you have no appetite, it¡¯s okay. | will ask them to prepare some food for you on the ne.¡± Cassandra couldn''t stop thinking about Hugo. She felt she was in a dilemma looking at the food in front of her. Keh answered his phone and then said to Cassandra, ¡°The check-up is done. Let''s go.¡± Cassandra got up immediately but she didn¡¯t leave directly. Instead, she looked at Keh and asked, ¡°What do you want to tell me? When will you tell me?¡± Keh said, ¡°There are too many people here. It¡¯s not the best ce.¡± Cassandra looked around and found that there were indeed a lot of people. She nodded. ¡°Let¡¯s talk about it on the ne.¡± Nothing could stop her from saving Hugo. On the ne. Cassandra and Jeremiah were both waiting for Keh to speak. Jeremiah thought Keh didn¡¯t know how to put it because he was present so he asked, ¡°Is it because of me? How about | go to the bathroom?¡± Keh was speechless. So was Cassandra. ¡°It has nothing to do with you.¡± Keh looked at Cassandra with distress in his eyes. ¡°If Kayden and | are right, Queen of Zosteylor is your biological mother. The person who kidnapped Hugo is your biological father.¡± Hearing this, Cassandra froze. She didn¡¯t tremble or get excited or angry. She was just expressionless and motionless. Jeremiah¡¯s eyes widened. He looked furious. He shouted, ¡°Keh! Do you know what are talking about?¡± He thought, ¡®Biological parents? How ridiculous! ine¡¯s biological parents are alive? And they are leaders of a country? you ¡®Did they ever try to find ine?

Cassandra was still expressionless and motionless. Keh felt sorrowful because of it. He sat next to Cassandra and held her in his arms. ¡°Cassie, I¡¯m telling you this because | think you have the right to know.

It¡¯s your decision. Whether to save her or not is up to you.¡± But actually, Keh was already regretting it. Looking at Cassandra¡¯s emotionless face, he felt his heart was broken. Cassandra had already suffered a lot. Keh kept asking himself why he had to tear her wound. ¡°I''m okay.¡± Cassandra finally said lightly, ¡°They still have Hugo. We can''t break into the Queen¡¯s Pce. It will cause international disputes. Hugo certainly won''t want to put the diplomacy between the two countries in an awkward situation because of himself.

Chapter 273 Chapter 273 Cassandra¡¯s tone was t as if it had nothing to do with her. But somehow it was a bit frightening. It was only October but anyone near to her would be so frightened that he would feel like it was even colder than winter. Keh swore by the honor of a soldier. ¡°Cassie, this is not for you to consider. It is Zosteylor¡¯s mistake. Even if it esctes, we can afford it. The nation will not give up on people like Hugo. ¡°If this matter is made public, the government has to do something. Hugo represents the traditional medicine of Clusia and his achievements are unparalleled. ¡°Therefore, you don¡¯t need to care about international disputes. Besides, he is powerful enough to keep it a secret.¡± Cassandra remained silent in a daze. Keh was worried. Jeremiah was no better than him. Jeremiah used Keh. ¡°What are you talking about? What do you want ine to do now?¡± Keh said, ¡°If I don¡¯t tell her, she will be unprepared for it. How do you. think she will feel when she meets the Queen and Darren?¡± Keh thought, ¡®Do you think I¡¯m happy about this? ¡®If possible, I want to hide this from Cassandra forever. Cassandra has me. That is enough, let alone those who regard her as their family. As for others who disappeared from her life, everything should remain unchanged. They are not wee. ¡®But if I don¡¯t tell her, she will find out by herself when she sees the face of the Queen. ¡°That would be more frustrating.

He hurriedly walked to her and held her in his arms. ¡°I¡¯m here with you, Cassie. I¡¯m here.¡± Cassandra smiled bitterly, ¡°Ken, I¡¯m just hungry.¡± Keh gently stroked her hair and said softly, ¡°Okay. I¡¯ll ask someone to cook. some food for you.¡± He thought, ¡®No matter what is happening, food is a necessity. Your stomach will suffer. Cassandra ate two strawberries, three shrimp, a small cake, and a ss of juice. Cassandra turned to Keh with an innocent and resentful look. ¡°I can¡¯t eat anymore.¡± Keh said, ¡°Well, let¡¯s wait until you¡¯re hungry. He thought Cassandra was fragile so he must carefully look after her. Jeremiah stayed away from her but he kept staring at her, worried. He thought, ¡®Damn it. If I had known this, I wouldn¡¯t have allowed her to be here. again. After nearly 10 hours, they finallynded at their destination. Cassandra threw the backpack on her back and said in a rxed tone, ¡°Let¡¯s straight to the Queen¡¯s Pce.¡± go Keh said, ¡°Okay.¡± ÀÎÀÎÀÎÀÎÊÐ Outside the Queen¡¯s Pce, guards were guarding the gate.

Keh said in a deep voice, ¡°Tell Darren that the person he has been looking for is here.¡± The guards looked at each other, doubting whether what he said was true. However, a guard recognized that the man in front of him hade to the Queen¡¯s Pce a few days ago. So, he went inside to report it. When Darren learned this, he was surprised that it was Keh. The person who he wanted to see the most was Dr. Quirke. Dr. Quirke was the top priority. Darren asked in a deep voice, ¡°Who else is with him?¡± The guard replied, ¡°Another man and a woman. Darren was confused. He knew since Keh said so had, Keh already knew it Darren said, ¡°Let them in.¡± Cassandra followed Keh inside and soon, she was in front of Darren. She lowered her head and didn¡¯t look at Darren. Darren took a sip of ck tea and said indifferently, ¡°Mr. Zelinski, why did youe back so soon?¡± Keh said, ¡°You kidnapped Hugo. Why do you think I¡¯m here?¡± Darren smiled and simply said, ¡°I have a reason. Hugo is perfectly fine. I do not forbid him to do anything except leave the room and use his phone. I just want to meet Dr. Quirke.¡± He knew only Dr. Quirke could save Leanna. Leanna had less than three months to live and there were a lot of things that they promised to do together but hadn¡¯t done yet. Cassandra raised her head and looked at Darren. ¡°Release Hugo. I¡¯ll treat the 0 10:13 Tue, 12 Mar Chapter 273 patient.¡± At this moment, Theodore, Vincent, and Harper arrived. They saw Cassandra in the surveince monitor. Darren casually nced at Cassandra and was immediately shocked. He thought, ¡®L¨CLeanna? 75% ¡®No, Leanna is not that young. How can there be someone who looks so much like her?¡® He stared at Cassandra with eyes wide open and walked quickly to her as if he was afraid that she would disappear at any moment. He reached out his trembling. hand but Cassandra dodged him. Cassandra said, ¡°Please show some respect.¡± Cassandra¡¯s indifference disappointed him and even depressed him. Harper walked to Cassandra and asked softly, ¡°Cassandra, why are you here?¡± Cassandra looked Harper up and down and then turned to Theodore and Vincent. Sheughed in her mind, ¡°There is no goodwill in the world for no reason. They know who I am so they are just plotting against me.¡¯ Cassandra was sure that the three of them absolutely knew who she was and then tried to be friends with her pretending that they didn¡¯t know. She thought it was indeed a smart move. Cassandra snorted and thought, ¡°Three brothers. What a loving family!¡± She looked at Darren indifferently, ¡°If you release Hugo, I¡¯ll probably consider saving the patient.¡± Darren instantly came to his senses. He suddenly didn¡¯t know what to do. ¡°How old are you?¡± Cassandra said, ¡°I¡¯m 20.¡± Cassandra deliberately told him a lie. Darren looked disappointed. 0 Tue, 12 Mar Chapter 273 He thought, ¡°Twenty years old. She¡¯s not my daughter.¡¯ Harper widened his eyes and looked at Cassandra in disbelief. ¡°How could you be 20? You¡¯re only 18. Why did you lie?¡± He couldn¡¯t understand why Cassandra was so indifferent and even lied after she saw his father. Cassandra looked up at Harper. He turned pale and didn¡¯t look as happy as when he was in school anymore. ¡°What should I say?¡± Cassandra snorted coldly, ¡°Should I cry and ept him and admit that I am his daughter? Should I ept all of this joyfully? ¡°If you hadn¡¯t kidnapped Hugo, I wouldn¡¯t have been here. Her life or death has nothing to do with me!¡± reyes. Cassandra red at Darren with hatred glittering in her eyes. ¡°Now, release Hugo!¡± SEND GIFT COMMENT 5/5 Chapter 274 Chapter 274 Darren panicked and didn''t know what to do. He looked at Harper and asked in disbelief with a trembling voice, "Harper, what did you say just now? She is 18? Is she really 18?" He thought, ''Yes, this girl just said she was my daughter. ''If she is my daughter, why doesn''t she want to admit it?'' Darren said, "Good girl, I am your father." He ignored everything and even forgot the question that he had just asked Harper. He stretched out his hands, which were trembling with excitement, to hug Cassandra.Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. However, when Cassandra saw him walking toward her and stretching out to her, she subconsciously stepped back with a gloomy face. Her movement of retreating confused Darren a little. He did not know what to do. Just as Harper was about to say something, Cassandra stopped him. "Release Hugo now! I''ll leave with him." Cassandra''s words poured cold water on Darren''s idea. He withdrew his hands and looked at Cassandra. He gave up his original idea. He said, "I can''t release Hugo now. I have to wait for Dr. Quirke. Only Dr. Quirke can save your mother." He came to his senses. For a brief moment, he had thought about releasing Hugo to satisfy Cassandra. However, her indifferent tone of voice was like mes in summer that were extinguished by cold water. Cassandra said, "Sir, I don''t have parents. I was an orphan. Please don''t talk nonsense." There was no hatred but only impatience in her eyes. She added, "I am the person who you are looking for. If you don'' believe me, you can ask Hugo." Darren didn''t believe it. ording to the doctor, Dr. Quirke was a man in his 30s. But the person in front of him now was obviously a girl, not a man. So he was skeptical hearing her words. Chapter 274 When she mentioned that she had no parents, he felt heartbroken. He hurriedly exined, "No, you have parents. I''m your father." He was certain without a DNA test. He knew she was his and Leanna''s daughter. She bore a striking resemnce to Leanna. He wouldn''t believe that she was not rted to Leanna. Cassandra snorted, "Parents? I had no parents in thest 18 years. Do I need them in the future?" Theodore felt sad for her. He stood up and exined, "Cassie, it''s not like that. We had no choice back then. We didn''t abandon you on purpose." Cassandra''s mood darkened. She thought, ''As expected, they knew." She looked at the three of them and asked coldly, "So, you knew who I was a long time ago and you deliberately approached me. Harper went to Juset University. and asked my about me from time to time." She turned to Vincent and said, "You pretended to be my fan." She nced at Theodore and said, "You bumped into your brother''s friend on the street? You guys are so hypocritical." As soon as she finished her words, she directly punched Harper in the abdomen. She choked him, took out an army knife, and pressed it against his neck. Cassandra threatened Darren. "Since you don''t want to release Hugo, let''s make a deal." She thought, ''You forced me to do this. Darren was surprised. He didn''t expect that she was so fast. Before they realized what was happening, she had already captured Harper. Darren asked coldly, worried, "He is your brother. Do you have to do this?" "I don''t even have parents. How can I have brothers? As long as you release Hugo, Harper will be safe and sound." She looked at everyone present indifferently. "Don''t think that I can''t get out of the Queen''s Pce. Even if I can''t, I won''t make it easy for you." Suddenly, Keh and Jeremiah were behind Cassandra, giving her support. Darren looked at Keh. "Mr. Zelinski, what don''t you do something?" "I''m just here to apany my girlfriend to rescue her family." Keh said coldly and expressionlessly, "Mr. Yates, you value the lives of his wife and sons so much. But did you ever think about what she had suffered in the past 18 years? Did you ever feel guilty when you were alone at night? She''s just here to save a man whom she has known for a long time. Why are you so hostile to her?" "You still don''t believe that she is Dr. Quirke?" Keh snorted coldly, "It doesn''t matter. Kayden, do you know why you only saw him once? Because he recognized you. He felt guilty for Cassie. But his uncle felt guilty for Cassie even more. Cassie wants you to release him now. Will you release him even if she is not Dr. Quirke?" Keh thought Darren was good enough to be a parent. Although Darren felt guilty for Cassandra, he was unwilling to release the person who was most important to her. There was no disappointment but sadness in Harper''s eyes. He looked at Cassandra and said, "Cassie, do you have to do this to me?" "As long as your father releases. Hugo, I will release you." Cassandra looked at Darren. "You broke the rules of the dark web and even as well as my rules. I can treat your patient but you can''t make trouble for anyone of the Whitecrane Hall. You kidnapped Hugo. I wonder if you can take the punishment that you deserve." Darren saw the resolution in Cassandra''s eyes. He thought Keh was right. His daughter just wanted him to release a person. He wondered why he was unwilling to do that. He motioned to someone beside him to bring Hugo here. After a while, Hugo appeared in front of them. Except for being thinner, he seemed fine and in good spirits. Hugo walked toward Cassandra and smiled, "Ms. Yates, why are you here? Did they threaten you toe here?" He turned to the man who had been threatened by Cassandra. "Ms. Yates, forgive him. I''m fine. Except that I can''t leave the room and contact you, I haven''t suffered anything." Hearing Hugo''s words, Cassandra put the knife away from Harper''s neck but she tightened her grip on Harper''s neck. She reached out to feel Hugo''s pulse to makesure that he hadn''t suffered anything. Then she let go of Harper. Jeremiah looked Hugo up and down. "Hugo, I''m d you''re fine. You can''t imagine how furious Cassie was when she heard that you had disappeared." He said the word Cassie on purpose. He was annoyed by Darren and his family. So, he did this to make them jealous. Hugo said, "I''m sorry to let you worry about me. I''m fine. Even if I''m not, I have the medicines." They only took away Hugo''smunication equipment and checked whether there was a tracker on him. They didn''t do anything to torture him. The two sachets were left to him. After all, they couldn''t know what was hidden in them could save life. Cassandra nced at Darren coldly and then turned to Hugo. "Let''s go." Chapter 275 Chapter 275 Darren blocked their way. ¡°Wait, you can¡¯t leave!¡± He had a strong feeling that if they walked out of the Queen''s Pce now, he would never find Cassandra again. Theodore and Vincent also stepped forward to block Cassandra¡¯s way. Theodore said, ¡°Cassie, can you stay?¡± Vincent immediately said, ¡°It¡¯s our fault. We shouldn¡¯t have lied to you. But we just wanted to get closer to you and know more about you. We were trying to find the best timing to tell you the truth.¡± He didn¡¯t mean anything else but things were getting worse and worse. Darren realized that they had already found their sister a long time ago. He wondered why they didn¡¯t tell him. He asked coldly with a gloomy face, ¡°You guys already knew she was your sister? Why didn¡¯t you tell me and your mother?¡± Harper¡¯s neck was grabbed Cassandra by just now so he was panting with the effort. Finally, his breathing became steady again. He exined, ¡°I saw Cassie on a variety show. After investigation, | found out she was probably my sister. So | found a hair in her dormitory and did a test. It was Vincent who did it so it can¡¯t be wrong.¡± They also found something wrong with Cassandra and Benjamin¡¯s DNA test. So after he got the hair, he sent it back to Zosteylor and Vincent did the test, which confirmed that Harper was rted to Cassandra by blood. After getting the results, Harper couldn''t wait to go to Clusia and tell her the truth. But in the end, he screwed up everything. Now, his father kidnapped the person who was the most important to Cassandra. He thought she probably would never forgive them. Darren was a bit angry that his sons didn¡¯t tell him earlier. ¡°You knew the result. Then why didn¡¯t you tell me?¡± Harper said, ¡°We don¡¯t want Mom to worry.¡± Listening to their conversation, Jeremiah somehow became furious. ¡°Have you. finished your family drama? If it is over, can we leave now?¡± MW [e) He thought, ¡°These people have gone too far. ¡®Don¡¯t pretend to be excited. You abandoned her. You''re no different from Benjamin. When he found her, he said that she was precious to them. But then her life was no better than a servant. Enough! ¡®Are they plotting something vicious again?¡± Darren looked at Jeremiah and asked, ¡°Who are you?¡± Jeremiah smiled wickedly and said proudly, ¡°I¡¯m Cassie¡¯s brother, Jeremiah. Her only brother.¡± He thought, ¡®You guys should stay away from us. ¡®| was rescued by ine herself. | am different from you!¡± Harper red at Jeremiah. ¡°What are you talking about?¡± He thought, ¡®l am Cassie¡¯s only brother!¡± Theodore said coldly but politely, ¡°Mr. Lawson, | know you want her to be your sister. But you can¡¯t make the decision for her, right?¡± He could tell that Jeremiah was important to Cassie so he didn¡¯t want to offend Jeremiah. Theodore looked at Cassandra gently, as if waiting for her answer. Darren didn¡¯t believe what Jeremiah just said. ¡°How did you know Cassie?¡± He thought, ¡®She is my daughter. She won''t be so heartless. ¡°When she knows the truth, she will forgive me and Leanna. ¡°You don¡¯t need to worry about it, Mr. Yates. Did you ever wonder if your daughter was suffering or even alive? No, you didn¡¯t. You only care about your son and your wife.¡± Jeremiah nced at Theodore and the others and said, ¡°It¡¯s really nice to have three sons. You must be happy.¡± Jeremiah knew what he said could hurt them but they could also hurt ine at the same time. But he was too furious. He didn¡¯t understand why they didn¡¯t try to find ine since they had a good life. Chapter 275 The Yates family once said that they did try to find her. They went there as soon as they were informed of it. But in fact, they didn¡¯t go until they confirmed that Thomas was safe.This is property ? of N?velDrama.Org. Her parents were actually the Queen and prince consort of Zosteylor. If they didn¡¯t have other children, it might be credible that they had no choice back then. However, they had three sons, and Theodore and Vincent were more than 20 years old. Jeremiah thought they were disgusting. Theodore exined coldly, ¡°Vincent and | are adopted. We have no royal blood.¡± Cassandra, who was expressionless at first, suddenly looked up and snorted. Jeremiah couldn¡¯t hide his anger. ¡°Well done.¡± Jeremiah looked at Darren and pointed at him. ¡°You adopted them but abandoned your biological daughter. You prefer boys. But if you hate girls so much, why didn¡¯t you strangle her right after she was born? Why did you let her suffer so much?¡± Jeremiah was so angry that his eyes turned red, He angrily used them of their crimes. Hugo figured everything out and looked at Darren. ¡°Are you Ms. Yates¡¯s father? Could you close your eyes at night in the past years? Where were you when she was suffering and when she was sick? Now you want her to ept you? It¡¯s toote.¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t want to argue with them anymore. ¡°Hugo, Jeremiah, let''s go.¡± Now, she just wanted to leave. Keh walked to her to make her feel a sense of security. He took her hand and said, ¡°I¡¯m always with you. You can rely on me. When Jeremiah heard Cassandra¡¯s words, the redness in his eyes gradually faded and he calmed down. Jeremiah said, ¡°Come on, Cassie. Let¡¯s go home!¡± Jeremiah took Cassandra''s other hand.

Cassandra said coldly that her purpose today was to bring Hugo home not to have a chat with her biological parents. She had been abandoned a lot of times. So, this was no big deal to her anymore. It was just like tearing her wound. But she had been through the same thing too many times so it had stopped hurting. She didn¡¯t think much about it. She just found it unbelievable at first when she knew the truth on the ne. She also found it a little ironic. She kidnapped Harper just now because she wanted to know how Darren would react.

Aperson who almost died and was abandoned repeatedly didn¡¯t need her biological parents. She already had a family, a family of her choice. She had Jeremiah, Hugo, Cyrus, and a boyfriend who loved her. Wasn''t it enough? Cassandra thought, ¡®These people have nothing to do with me!¡± Harper was a little bit emotional. He began to gasp for air to calm himself down. Cassandra noticed that something was wrong with him. She snorted, ¡°You are indeed a family. You all have the same problem.¡± all hay She knew what happened to Maximilian was her fault. She agitated him. But he was old enough to figure out everything. Now he had almost recovered, which was a way to make up for her mistake. He thought, ¡®But what is Harper doing now? He¡¯s only an 18-year-old boy.

Leanna walked to Darren and said excitedly, ¡°Honey, is... is she our daughter?¡± Cassandra¡¯s face was almost the same as hers when she was young. How could she not notice it? Leanna knew Cassandra must be her daughter. Darren hurriedly took Leanna in his arms andforted her. ¡°Elena, don¡¯t get too excited. Calm down.¡± Leanna¡¯s heartbeat steadied.

Theodore said gently, ¡°Cassie, you can¡¯t leave now.¡± Although Zosteylor was not a safe ce now, the Queen¡¯s Pce was safe. No one dared to bomb the Queen¡¯s Pce, no matter how crazy Kam was. Therefore, it was safe for Cassandra to stay there. 3/5 Ul. 0 Chapter 276 Cassandra said, ¡°Mr. Yates, please call me Ms. Yates. | have to remind you again. that | am not rted to you.¡± Cassandra was a little bit irritated. She thought these people were annoying. Theodore exined patiently, ¡°Cassie, do we have to talk like this? Dad had no choice back then. He didn''t want to abandon you too but he really had no choice.

However, Cassandra said, ¡°Well, it''s none of my business. Did | cause that? You should go to find the person who caused it.¡± Cassandra was a little angry. She thought, ¡®Why is everything my fault? ¡®Will | finally feel free if only | die? ¡®No, | suffered so much to have this life. How can | give up so easily? Theodore asked coldly and somewhat helplessly, ¡°What if | tell you that it¡¯s all your fault? Will you still insist on leaving?¡± Cassandra¡¯s eyes were glittering with irony. These people were doing everything that they could to keep her there. Cassandra said, ¡°If my memory serves me right, we haven''t met for 18 years. How did | cause her to faint?¡± She passed Theodore and walked towards the ne. Theodore said, ¡°Because when you and Harper were still inside her, she was. poisoned. But after she gave birth to you and Harper, you were the only healthy one. What do you think about this?¡± The content is on noveldrama.org! Read thetest chapter there! Chapter 277 hapter 277 Cassandra said, ¡°So, I should take responsibility? I didn¡¯t make her pregnant. Nor did I ask her to abandon her kids. Her tragedy was made by the person who poisoned her, not me. ¡°I didn¡¯t get poisoned inside her does not mean that their tragedies were caused by me. But I think you must know who caused my tragedy. ¡°I felt like I¡¯ve already died once. If you want that to happen again, do whatever you like.¡± Cassandra felt her whole body was cold. She knew what Theodore meant. Leanna was poisoned when she was pregnant. She couldn¡¯t take any medicine: because she was pregnant. Although Harper and Cassandra were both inside. Leanna, only Harper was infected. Cassandra was healthy. Therefore, when they left, they only took Harper with them and left Cassandra behind to wait for the Yates family to pick her up. However, Thomas just had an operation. They cared too much about Thomas at that moment and didn¡¯t have time to care about Cassandra, who was just born two or three days ago. It had been 18 years. Even Benjamin had found her. But they didn¡¯t do anything. Leanna was the Queen of Zosteylor. It was a wealthy nation and had established full diplomatic rtions with Clusia. So there were many constes of Zosteylor in the big cities. It couldn¡¯t be very difficult for them to find someone in Clusia. It was not a difficult task. They just didn¡¯t want to do it. Keh was nervous. He protected Cassandra behind him. Although he didn¡¯t understand what she meant by ¡°already died once¡°, he would not allow anyone to get a chance to hurt Cassandra. Keh said, ¡°Mr. Yates, I think you must have heard what Cassie said. You didn¡¯t go through what she had gone through. So you can¡¯t ask Cassie to forgive you. Her Majesty is in poor health. You¡¯d better quickly find a doctor for her. Let us leave.¡± Theodore was a little regretful. He thought he shouldn¡¯t have said what he just said and med Cassandra for it. Theodore hurriedly exined, ¡°Cassie, that¡¯s not what I meant. I¡­ I didn¡¯t mean it. 175 A 75% Chapter 277 Please don¡¯t take it personally. ¡°The poison inside Mom hasn¡¯t been cured. It has been so many years. Even the poison inside Harper is not. It attacks them from time to time.¡± He didn¡¯t want to keep apologizing to change Cassandra¡¯s mind. He thought it would be good to persuade Cassandra to visit his mother even if he couldn¡¯t find Dr. Quirke. Theodore added, ¡°The doctor said if the poison inside Mom was not cured in three months, she would be dead. So Dad sent someone to kidnap Hugo. He just wanted Dr. Quirke to save Mom.¡± Hugo¡¯s heart jolted. When he left the Queen¡¯s Pce, he found that there was something wrong with the Queen. She didn¡¯t look healthy. Hugo thought it seemed that what Theodore said was true. Cassandra was lost in thought. She murmured, ¡°Three months.¡± She looked at Hugo. Hugo said helplessly, ¡°When I left the Queen¡¯s Pce, I noticed the Queen¡¯s breathing was ragged. She looks not bad but it¡¯s only because of the makeup. She doesn¡¯t look like a healthy person.¡± Theodore turned to Hugo in surprise. ¡°You have medical skills?¡± Jeremiah couldn¡¯t help but say, ¡°You didn¡¯t investigate him before you kidnapped. him? Hugo is also an expert doctor and his teacher is Dr. Quirke.¡± He thought, ¡®A bunch of idiots! They already kidnapped a doctor but they didn¡¯t ask Hugo for help!. ¡®Instead, they locked him up. ¡®Stupid! Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. ¡®People say they are smart. I really can¡¯t find the slightest evidence.¡± Theodore was speechless. He didn¡¯t even know where his father found Hugo. He was not involved in these things. Cassandra took a deep breath and turned to Keh. Keh gently rubbed her head and said softly, ¡°Whatever you do, I will support ??? O 75% Chapter 277 you.¡± Jeremiah turned his head arrogantly away from Cassandra. ¡°Don¡¯t look at me. Did I never object to anything that you want to do?¡± Cassandra turned to Theodore and said, ¡°I can go back with you and cure Ms. Leanna Stark only if you promise not to pester me anymore. We should be like strangers. Can you do that?¡± Theodore was stunned. He looked at Cassandra and felt helpless. But he didn¡¯t get carried away because Cassandra was willing to go back with him. He said, ¡°I can¡¯t make the decision.¡± Cassandra said, ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll go back with you and talk to Darren.¡± If they could reach an agreement, Cassandra would treat Leanna; if not, Cassandra wouldn¡¯t do it. ***** Back at the Queen¡¯s Pce, Darren was very excited when he saw Cassandra, thinking that Theodore must have persuaded her. Unexpectedly, Cassandra retreated as soon as he walked a bit closer to her. Darren was a little bit disappointed. But he soon swallowed it. He looked at her in surprise. ¡°Cassie, you¡¯re back!¡± ¡°I¡¯m not here to catch up with you.¡± Cassandra paused and said, ¡°Theodore said. that it was all fault that Her Majesty is sick. Although I don¡¯t want you to be my parents, she gave birth to me after all. I can¡¯t watch her die and do nothing. But I have my conditions.¡± Darren didn¡¯t understand what she meant. He turned to Theodore. Theodore exined everything to Darren, feeling helpless. Darren¡¯s mood darkened as he listened to Theodore. Darren said, ¡°I won¡¯t ept it. I am your father and your mother is sick. Even if we have to die, we won¡¯t disown you.¡± He didn¡¯t agree. Neither would Leanna. 75% Chapter 277 Cassandra said, ¡°We never met in the past 18 years. Why do you still care about it so much? If you insist on it, Her Majesty will be dead. If you promise to leave me alone, I will stay until Her Majesty recovers.¡± She thought her offer was probably not tempting enough. ¡°I will cure Harper too. It should be enough.¡± Darren looked at Cassandra and thought, ¡®Who is she? Why is she so certain?¡± Hugo said, ¡°Mr. Yates, didn¡¯t you kidnap me for Dr. Quirke? She¡¯s Dr. Quirke, the legendary man in his 30s. She just pretended to be a man.¡± Keh said, ¡°To save Kayden, I found Dr. Quirke. At first, she disguised herself as a man in his thirties. But in the end, I found out that Dr. Quirke was just a little girl. Hugo nodded. ¡°Ms. Yates is already negotiating with you, which means that she is confident that no matter what kind of poison the Queen has, as long as the Queen isn¡¯t dead yet, she can save the Queen. Even if there is no cure for the poison, at least she can make the Queen live longer.¡± Darren asked doubtfully, ¡°Are you really able to save Leanna?¡± Cassandra replied, ¡°Yes.¡± Cassandra decided that even if she had to try her best, she would save the Queen, as long as they didn¡¯t go back on their word and leave her alone. Darren was in a dilemma. He had to choose between his wife who only had three months left to live and his daughter who he felt guilty for in the past 18 years. He didn¡¯t know what to do. Suddenly, a doctor walked to him and said, ¡°Sir, we must Dr. Quirke as soon as possible. The Queen¡¯s disease will soon be incurable.¡± Darren clenched his fists and closed his eyes. He was torn. He said in a somewhat trembling voice, ¡°Okay. It¡¯s a deal.¡± He thought, ¡®Sorry, Leanna. I chose you in the end. 111 Chapter 277 É« Chapter 278 Chapter 278 Theodore looked at Darren in surprise. He couldn¡¯t believe it. He thought, ¡®Why would Dad do that? Is there really no other choice?¡± Darren closed his eyes in pain. He didn¡¯t dare to look at Cassandra again. He was afraid of her cold eyes which were full of irony. He thought, ¡®Isn¡¯t it ironic? I just said that I wouldn¡¯t give up Cassandra even if I had to die.¡¯ However, he changed his mind in less than half an hour. He thought he had no choice. He was about to lose Leanna. The poison inside. Harper was like a time bomb that could kill him at any time. He thought he could only make it up for Cassandra in his next life. Jeremiah snorted contemptuously. Theodore felt so ashamed that he didn¡¯t dare to look up. Jeremiah said, ¡°How ironic! When Cassie was born, you abandoned her. Now for your wife, you choose to abandon her again. You will abandon Cassie without hesitation whenever you have to choose between her and something else, right?¡± He thought this family was ridiculous and disgusting. What they did was extremely disgusting. ine was unlucky to have these kinds of parents. He thought she might as well live as an orphan like him. It would be more free and rxing. Cassandra was expressionless. It seemed that she had expected this. She was not surprised at all. Darren didn¡¯t want Cassandra to misunderstand him so hurriedly exined, ¡°Cassie, that¡¯s not what I meant. You can take my life. I felt guilty for you. But it was my choice. It has nothing to do with your mother. Your mother is a free and wild person. She has been tortured by this poison for so many years. I just hope she can get better. I will definitely make it up to you, okay? I will find all the best things in the world and give them to you.¡± ¦° He sounded and looked like he was begging and feeling very guilty.

She just said coldly, ¡°Don¡¯t go back on to 5 your word. I don¡¯t need anyone make it up to me or feel guilty for me. You have lived happily in the past 18 years. Why do you still insist on it? I don¡¯t have parents. Mr. Yates, choose your words wisely. Otherwise, I will stop treating her at any time.¡± Darren¡¯s eyes suddenly turned red and he moved his lips slightly. He wanted to say something but found that he could not say it loud at all. Theodore was also a little bit anxious. ¡°Cassie, why don¡¯t you believe Dad¡¯s exnation? They had no choice. It¡¯s not what you think.¡± He thought Cassie was too stubborn. She insisted on what she believed and refused to listen to anyone¡¯s exnation. If they both kept misunderstanding each other, Cassandra would never ept them as her family. Cassandra said, ¡°Exin what? Exin why when his wife gave birth to a healthy girl and a boy who was infected with the poison, he left with his wife and son, leaving the healthy child in the hospital to wait for his family to pick her up? ¡°Or tell me you never gave up looking for me and you just couldn¡¯t find me? There are too many obstacles?¡± Cassandra suddenly looked up at them and said, ¡°Let me tell you something. I don¡¯t need these exnations because the Yates family has already exined them to me. However, the fact is that your guys are living happily together in Zosteylor. After he and his wife arrived at Zosteylor, was the first thing that urred to their mind the girl that he left in the hospital? A newborn child! ¡°He lived happily with his wife and adopted sons. But his daughter was left to sink or swim. ¡°Theodore, do you think exnations like these mean anything to me? Just do what he has promised.¡± Cassandra looked at Darren coldly and fearlessly. ¡°This treatment is to repay her for giving birth to me. You don¡¯t have to pay the consultation fee. I will also cure Harper. You gave me life and I give you two. Fair enough.¡± Harper walked in. ¡°I don¡¯t agree with it!¡± He couldn¡¯t breathe after Cassandra strangled him. After inhaling some oxygen and taking a rest in his room, he heard that Cassandra was back. 0 Chapter 278 He hurriedly came over here. As soon as he came in, he heard what Cassandra just said. Harper said, ¡°I don¡¯t need your help. The worst thing is death after all. You are my sister, which is a fact that cannot be changed. Don¡¯t think you can make uspromise by threatening us with me and my mother¡¯s life.¡± What he said. sounded very righteous. He resolutely disagreed with this deal. He had suffered enough because of the poison to be not afraid of death. He didn¡¯t want to live anyway. Death was not bad for him. As long as Cassandra admitted that he was her brother, he didn¡¯t mind it. Cassandra said, ¡°But what else can you do now? Mr. Yates has promised that we¡¯ll never see each other again as long as I cure you and your mother. If he changes his mind now, he will lose you and your mother. ¡°You think if you don¡¯t choose this, I will trust you? You are wrong. I just want to get it over as simply as possible. I don¡¯t want you to bother me again. I don¡¯t want you to take advantage of me like Benjamin,¡± Cassandra was annoyed by Benjamin and his family. Although she didn¡¯t see Maximilian very often, she often bumped into him in shopping malls. Every time, he nagged Cassandra. Harper was speechless. He didn¡¯t know how to answer this question. The doctor had been watching them silently. He thought, ¡®So, this little girl can save Her Majesty? ¡®She¡¯s so young. Is she really capable of that?¡± However, Hugo was beside Cassandra. The doctor knew there were not many people whom Hugo respected so much. Cassandra said, ¡°Mr. Yates, let me ask you again. Do you still want the deal?¡± Darren was torn. He didn¡¯t want it but Leanna didn¡¯t have much time and Harper¡¯s health had begun to deteriorate after he was back. Darren nodded helplessly. ¡°Yes.¡± 0 Chapter 278 ¡°That¡¯s good. I will keep treating Her Majesty until she is cured. I hope you won¡¯t go back on your word.¡± Cassandra took out a mini voice recorder from her pocket and said, ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter if you don¡¯t want to admit it. I have recorded it. If you show up in front of me again afterward, I will get them back to the state before my treatment like how I cure them.¡± Darren said, ¡°Cassie.¡± Cassandra did not want to hear Darren¡¯s voice so she interrupted him coldly. ¡°Take me to the patient. Don¡¯t waste my time.¡± Darren took a deep breath. Since he had made the choice, he had to stick to it. He decided to solve the problem in the future. How could he really give up his daughter? He believed that she would understand him. In her bedroom, Leanna was lying on the bed quietly. She was bloodless but she was smiling. She was probably having a sweet dream.

Leanna did not have much time to live. If she didn¡¯t get treatment in time, she would be dead in a few months. Looking at her solemn face, Hugo asked worriedly, ¡°Ms. Yates, is it a tricky one?¡± Cassandra looked serious so he subconsciously thought the problem was very serious. Cassandra said coldly, ¡°The poison is curable. It¡¯ll be a bit difficult to get rid of it since it has been inside her for so many years.¡± The poison was not something very powerful. However, one traditional herb required for the antidote was hard to find. They were surrounded by modern medicines. It was difficult for modern medicine to solve this poison. If it had been just a virus, modern medicines would have cured Leanna long ago. They didn¡¯t know this so they had been using modern medicines to keep Leanna alive. The follow¨Cup treatment would beplicated but it was not a serious problem. Hugo nodded. He thought, ¡®Great!¡® When Darren and the others heard this, they looked happy. Darren was surprised. ¡°Really? Is it really curable?¡± This was great news for Darren. The nightmare that had been haunting him for 18 years was finally coming to an end. Cassandra walked to Harper with dull eyes. She said coldly, ¡°Stretch out your hands.¡± Harper was stunned. He didn¡¯t reach out his hands but put them behind his back.

Before she went back to Clusia, she had changed her attitude toward Harper. He even became her friend. But everything changed in less than two days. Cassandra gently raised her head and nced at Harper. ¡°Whether you ept my treatment or not doesn¡¯t matter. Take your life more seriously. If I don¡¯t treat you, I am afraid that Mr. Yates and Ms. Leanna Stark will hunt me down all over the world after you die.¡± Harper was stunned. He looked anxious, helpless, and regretful. He turned to Darren, hoping that he could exin it but Darren just moved his lips slightly without making a sound. Harper shook his head. ¡°Cassie, my life or death is none of your business. I don¡¯t want you to make a deal with Dad.¡± He couldn¡¯t ept this. Cassandra suddenly shouted, ¡°Jeremiah!¡± She didn¡¯t want to talk with Harper anymore.

Your condition is moreplicated. You were born with the poison. So you have to have a careful examination. Don¡¯t let your father down.¡± Jeremiah took Harper¡¯s hand and extended it to Cassandra. After taking Harper¡¯s pulse, Cassandra said to the doctor, ¡°Show me the medical records of Harper and Her Majesty.¡± The doctor walked out of the room. ¡°I¡¯ll get them.¡± Cassandra turned to Leanna, who was lying on the bed, and took out a silver needle from her bag. ¡°I¡¯ll insert one needle into her.

He walked to her and.forted her softly. ¡°Cassie, you must be tired. Let me take you to rest, okay?¡± Cassandra just looked at Keh in a daze and nodded obediently. Watching Cassandra behaving so obediently, Jeremiah was jealous. He had never seen her like this before. Keh held Cassandra in his arms and asked Theodore, ¡°Where is the guest room?¡± Theodore hesitated. He looked at Cassandra with tenderness in his eyes and said, ¡°Cassie, there is always a room for you in the Queen¡¯s Pce. First a crib and then a bed. It will be reced with a new one every year and someone will clean it every once in a while.¡± Cassandra froze and then she calmed down. ¡°No need.

Chapter 281 Chapter 281 In Leanna¡¯s bedroom, Cassandra looked at her with a serious expression, causing Leanna to be obedient. ¡°Cassie¡­¡± Leanna said cautiously. Leanna was a queen, but at the moment, when she was in front of Cassandra, she was cautious. She was afraid that even a single nce would make Cassandra unhappy and leave. Cassandra coldly asked Leanna to extend her hand. Leanna obediently reached out, and Cassandra checked her pulse. Cassandra¡¯s expression became solemn as she said, ¡°Have a good rest. Let others handle everything. You¡¯d better not worry about anything else before I detoxify you.¡± Then she looked at Harper and said in the same cold tone, ¡°The same goes. for you. As my patient, if you don¡¯t follow my instructions, I will terminate the treatment at any time.¡± Cassandra looked up at Darren and asked, ¡°Are there any traditional herbs in Queen¡¯s Pce?¡± Darren was stunned for a while. Then he shook his head. There were hardly any traditional herbs. Cassandra snorted lightly, looking at Darren. She said with sarcasm, ¡°After the years in Zosteylor, have you forgotten all about our traditions? When modern medicine couldn¡¯t solve the problem, you never considered traditional medicine?¡± But considering the fact that Darren could abandon her, his own daughter, Cassandra thought that it made sense for him not to remember traditional medicine. Darren was speechless. He had no choice but to silently endure the mockery. He was afraid that Cassandra would get angry if he with her. Leanna looked at Cassandra, her eyes shifting from confusion to delight. She asked, ¡°My dear daughter, are you going to detoxify me?¡± Cassandra frowned and said impatiently, ¡°Ms. Leanna Stark, or I should say, Your Majesty. I think there might be some misunderstanding. I¡¯m Cassandra Yates, and ved, Chapter 281 3 Ma my grandmother is Blossom Yates. She adopted me. So I grew up without parents. Don¡¯t call me like that. I am not your daughter. Please call me Dr. Yates or Faye.¡± The first time Leanna called her that, she was busy seeing off Keh, so she didn¡¯t make it clear to Leanna. But now, she couldn¡¯t bear to hear Leanna call her Cassie again. Leanna was puzzled. She didn¡¯t understand the reason why Cassandra said that. She asked, ¡°Why? You are my daughter, aren¡¯t you? We look so alike, don¡¯t we?¡± Suddenly, she seemed to realize the reason and said, ¡°My dear, are you ming me and your father for abandoning you back then? We had no choice. At that time, we couldn¡¯t afford to take you with us. After all, your brother was born with poison. in his body. Neither I nor your father wanted to abandon any of you. However, we have no choice. If we left your brother, he would definitely die. We couldn¡¯t bear it. Both you and your brother are our children. How could your father and I be willing to leave you? ¡°But it was so urgent that we had to make a choice. We considered many. possibilities, even if ¡­ We thought that at least you could survive, and we would meet one day. But if it were your brother, the Yates family might not have been able to cure him. And if the Yates family failed to pick him up in time and he went to another family, as someone born with poison in his body, who would save him?¡± As soon as Leanna thought of the decision they made, she felt painful. Despite her own weakness at that time, seeing her children made her feel fulfilled. However, fate yed a cruel joke on her. Kam was about to hold the ascension. ceremony, and she wanted to seize control of Zosteylor. Leanna couldn¡¯t just stand by and do nothing. Therefore, shortly after giving birth, she and Darren left. However, at that time, they really couldn¡¯t take both children with them. They had clearly informed the Yates family, but somehow, something went wrong. Cassandra disappeared from the hospital. She wasn¡¯t in the Ya residence, and nobody could find her. Cassandra looked at Queen Stark silently. She didn¡¯t want to hear the exnation. So she said, ¡°I¡¯m going to give you an injection, and you can have a good rest.¡± Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. Leanna refused without even thinking about it and said, ¡°No, no. My dear, tell me first. How did you come here and why?¡± O Wed, 13 Mar Chapter 281 Cassandra snorted coldly. Looking at the hypocritical people in the room, she slowly stood up and said, ¡°Your dear husband kidnapped Hugo, who is the most important family to me. I¡¯m here for him. Is there any problem with that? As part of the deal, I¡¯ll cure you and Harper, and from then on, we¡¯ll be even.¡± Leanna stood up abruptly and replied, ¡°No! What do you mean by saying that we¡¯ll be even? I owe you so much, my dear. Don¡¯t you want Mom to make it up to you?¡± ¡°Make it up? The best way you can make it up to me is by staying away from me. Are you willing to do that?¡± said Cassandra. Cassandra thought that she didn¡¯t need them to make it up to her. She could gain anything she wanted by herself. She could get anything that she didn¡¯t have. She didn¡¯t need their care. Leanna¡¯s eyes were instantly filled with tears, and she burst into tears. Cassandra was a little annoyed and said, ¡°Calm her down first. When she¡¯s calm, I¡¯ll move on to the next step.¡± Looking at Hugo, she sighed and said, ¡°You stay here with her. If there¡¯s a problem, She couldn¡¯t proceed with her work without the patient¡¯s cooperation. All she could do was wait. ¡°Okay. I¡¯ll take care of it here. Ms. Yates, you can go and have a rest,¡± replied Hugo. In the room, Cassandra sat on the sofa and looked out of the window, lost in thought. She didn¡¯t even notice when Harper entered. He brought a cup of coffee and some desserts. ¡°Seeing that your door was open, I came in without your permission.¡± Harper ced the items on the coffee table, appearing cautious. ¡°Thank you.¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t say much. But she advised, ¡°You should also rest. You need to be in good spirits to deal with the detoxification process.¡± Cassandra felt a little speechless. There were no traditional herbs in Queen¡¯s Pce. She didn¡¯t know how she could proceed with her work. Therefore, she asked Harper, ¡°Can you call your two brothers over?¡± Chapter 281 Harper nodded. After a while, Vincent and Theodore arrived. When they learned that Cassandra wanted to see them, they were somewhat surprised. ¡°Cassie, is there anything that we can do?¡± They seemed awkward, unlike those of men who had been battling in the business world for years. ¡°Find all the traditional herbs I need as soon as possible, and then I can start the detoxification process.¡± Cassandra handed the medication list to Theodore. ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll do it right away.¡± Cassandra nodded and added, ¡°If you¡¯re unsure about anything, ask Hugo. He can help you.¡± ¡°Okay.¡± After closing her eyes to rest in the room for about half an hour, Cassandra slowly opened her eyes. Unexpectedly, as soon as she did that, someone knocked on the door. Cassandra opened the door to find Darren standing outside. ¡°Cassie, I¡¯d like to talk to you.¡± Cassandra leaned against the sofa with her legs crossed. With that posture, it seemed that she was going to have a negotiation instead of a chat. ¡°Mr. Yates, I don¡¯t think there¡¯s much to say between us,¡± said Cassandra. Before Darren could say anything, he was met with Cassandra¡¯s refusal. ¡°Well, let¡¯s talk about what happened back then. I want you to know everything before you hate us, okay?¡± Darren frowned. It seemed that he didn¡¯t expect Cassandra to hate him like that. He thought, ¡®What should I do now?¡± ¡°Well, go ahead,¡± said Cassandra. She thought, ¡®I¡¯d like to hear what kind of story you cane up with. Çú SEND GIFT 0 Chapter 282 Chapter 282 Darren took a deep breath and began to talk about what happened eighteen years ago. Back then, Leanna was still a girl in her twenties. She was confident, positive, straightforward, and good¨Clooking. After Darren and Leanna met, they fell in love with each other and soon enjoyed an intimate rtionship. Darren¡¯s father was also very satisfied with Leanna. Darren and Leanna had thought that they could live happily ever happily. However, upon receiving the news of her pregnancy, they learned that her parents were seriously ill and she needed to return home to care for them. At the time of their hasty marriage, he hadn¡¯t gone to visit Leanna¡¯s parents. So he went back with her, only to discover her true background. She was actually a princess of Zosteylor, which came as quite a shock to Darren. Ulrich Stark, Leanna and Kam¡¯s father, was seriously ill, and their mother cried every day. Ulrich intended to pass the country¡¯s affairs to Leanna, but at that time, Leanna did not agree. Instead, she felt that her sister, Kam, who was full of ambition and aspiration, was more suitable. And the country would surely prosper under Kam¡¯s leadership. It was Ulrich who said that Kam was very ambitious but quite petty, unable to tolerate others, and not suitable to be a leader. Somehow, these words reached Kam¡¯s ears. She fed Ulrich slow¨Cacting poison and elerated his death, then poisoned Leanna as well. Therefore, the Queen¡¯s Pce was not safe to stay in for long. Staying there too long would be life¨Cthreatening. Ulrich gave the token of session to Leanna, and Darren and Leanna fled together. However, as Leanna was poisoned, she couldn¡¯t truly take on the position. of leader. Moreover, Kam often handled state affairs, and many people supported her. It was unlikely they would willingly ept Leanna, who only knew how to have fun, as their leader. Therefore, they had to run away with the token at that time. Without the token, Kam couldn¡¯t seed on the throne to be the leader. Even if she held power, she was far from that position. 10:23 Wed, 13 Mar HBG Chapter 282 72% During that time, Leanna struggled against the poison. But she was pregnant, and doctors dared not administer medication, urging her to terminate the pregnancy. She refused to do so. Even if she knew the child would be born with poison, she didn¡¯t want to give up the child. So, she didn¡¯t take medication or detoxify herself. Instead, during her pregnancy, she painstakingly rallied the people left for her by Ulrich. They were finally able to return to the Queen¡¯s Pce officially, but Kam set them up. They didn¡¯t care about the danger, but Leanna was pregnant. She didn¡¯t want to take risks, so she wanted to wait a little longer. To be on the safe side, they went back to Clusia. Instead of going back home, they stayed in the county town around Drieso, where medical technology wasn¡¯t too bad. They stayed there for two months until Harper and Cassandra were born. When they were born, Darren had the doctor examine them. Harper was found to be carrying the poison in his body, while Cassandra was healthy. Leanna cried but also felt extremely lucky. They thought that at least one of the babies was healthy and Cassandra could grow up healthily. Their happiness didn¡¯tst long. On the third day after Leanna gave birth to Harper and Cassandra, they received news that Kam had obtained the session token and was about to hold the session ceremony. Then they couldn¡¯t sit still and let it happen. They had to stop the ridiculous ceremony. However, they didn¡¯t know what to do with the two children. After Leanna gave birth to the children, her body was very weak. Combined with the poison, she was almost exhausted. Darren and she couldn¡¯t take both children with them. They watched Harper and Cassandra in a dilemma, unsure of whom to take. However, the danger was approaching. Kam¡¯s men had found them, leaving them with little time to think. If they didn¡¯t leave immediately, all of them would be in danger. Darren said to Leanna, ¡°Leanna, let¡¯s take Harper and leave Cassandra to my father. My family will take good care of her. It¡¯s not far from Drieso here. It¡¯s only a three¨Chour drive or any hour by ne. She will be fine.¡± He made the decision, but Leanna didn¡¯t fully understand it. Both children were 72% Chapter 282 theirs, so she didn¡¯t know the reason why they should have to make such a decision. ¡°We simply can¡¯t take both children with us. You¡¯re too weak now. We can take Harper with us. When you detoxify your body, he can get detoxified too. While Cassandra is healthy, my father will take good care of her,¡± exined Darren. This is property ? of N?velDrama.Org. Leanna disagreed and argued, ¡°But what if Maximilian doesn¡¯t pick her up safely? What if she goes missing?¡± Darren had been turning it over in his head, and then he threw out an idea. ¡°I¡¯ll hack her DNA file. When anyone runs a DNA test, the system will mess with her results, making it look like she¡¯s part of Benjamin¡¯s family. This way, nobody can track her back to us or to my dad.¡± ¡°But I¡¯ll tell Dad everything. When they see her, they can do the DNA test at the military hospital. I won¡¯t change the system or data there, so they¡¯ll be able to make sure who she is,¡± he added. There was no more time to convince themselves. The reason why Darren chose Benjamin¡¯s family was that he had helped Benjamin once and hoped for him to repay his kindness. In addition, if Cassandra was unfortunately missing and found by Benjamin¡¯s family, they would inevitably go. visit Maximilian¡¯s family. Then Maximilian would definitely be able to see her. As long as he saw her, he would surely recognize her. They made a quick decision and left with Harper in their arms, leaving behind the ne Darren often wore to Cassandra. They hoped it would make it easier for Maximilian to pick her up. However, he hadn¡¯t expected that there would be an ident. The nurse held Cassandra everywhere to look for her parents but failed to find them. When Maximilian and the others of the family arrived, the nurse just left with Cassandra in her arms. They only knew that Cassandra was lost, but they had no idea where to find her. They exposed Kam¡¯s conspiracy, presenting the true token of session. With the support of their followers and those who only recognized the token, the majority supported them. The session ceremony, which was designed for Kam, became Leanna¡¯s. As a result, Kam was sent to the military court for disrupting national security and forging the token. But she escaped on the way. J 72% Chapter 282 Kam, who should have been in prison, had been lingering outside for so many years. When Leanna¡¯s session was settled, they began to look for Cassandra. They wanted to see if she had been taken back to the Yates family. If so, Darren would sneak back and pick her up because Kam was no longer a threat, and he could. have Cassandra back with them. However, when he hacked into the Yates family¡¯s surveince, he found no trace of Cassandra, only hearing their guilt for not picking the child up. With Cassandra gone missing, Darren felt like he was losing his mind. The hospital surveince only showed a nurse carrying her away, with no clear identification of the nurse because all the nurses wore masks. When Leanna knew that Cassandra was missing, her health deteriorated further all of a sudden. She had fainted for several years. The poison in Harper¡¯s body was also making him painful. Therefore, Darren couldn¡¯t leave. He had no choice but to take care of Leanna and Harper. And he was searching for Cassandra, which was quite difficult because there were no clues. Darren could only pray that Benjamin had found Cassandra and raised her 1. up. He had checked the surveince of Benjamin¡¯s house and found that they did have a baby girl. Without further thought, Darren believed it was Cassandra, so he stayed with Leanna and Harper, feeling reassured. Çú SEND GIFT 0 COMMENT 10:31 Wed, 13 Mar B G.

Look how much our sons adore their little sister.¡± Darren was dumbfounded to hear that. He realized that the girl was adopted by Benjamin, and she wasn¡¯t Cassandra. With Cassandra missing for several years, there might be all kinds of idents... Darren suddenly panicked and dispatched many people to look for Cassandra. However, their actions were noticed by Kam, who also sent people to search for Cassandra. In just a few years, every time they found a girl who was likely to be Cassandra, that girl would inexplicably be killed. Over time, Darren couldn¡¯t let innocent girls. die anymore, so he had to temporarily stop looking for Cassandra. After listening to Darren¡¯s exnation, Cassandra showed little expression, even colder than before. Darren felt guilty and said heartbrokenly, ¡°Cassie, it was all my fault. You can me me or even not ept me as your father, but your mother is innocent. She risked her life to give birth to you and Harper.

In her opinion, Darren was just a self-righteous man.. In his exnation, or rather, his version of the story, everything was how he perceived it, how he thought it was. And that led to her tragedy. She thought, ¡°Was he out of his mind? How could he change my gic data, making Benjamin consider me the daughter of his family? Did he think his family was so big that Benjamin¡¯s family had to visit it? ¡®In this modern world, no coteral families should pay respects to the main family Cassandra said, ¡°First of all, I¡¯m grateful to Ms. Leanna Stark for giving birth to me, but as for epting you all, I¡¯m sorry, | can¡¯t do that.¡± She let out a light scoff, a hint of disdain in her eyes. Then she added, ¡°Aren''t you good at hacking?

In this life, she only spent two months with Benjamin¡¯s family. But in her previous life, she had endured two years, only to be tortured to death in the end. And all of that was due to Darren¡¯s ideas and arrogance. She felt ridiculous. His exnation wasn¡¯t meant to persuade her but to provide her with answers. Darren didn¡¯t quite understand what Cassandra meant, but seeing Cassandra refuse tomunicate, he simply said, ¡°Well, you can rest first.¡± Then he walked out of the room and saw Vincent.

The little girl grew up drinking the simplest vegetable soup, and baby form was a luxury for her. ¡°The old woman had no family and regarded the little girl as her own family. Therefore, she tried her best to take care of the little girl until the little girl grew up, went to school, and spent money. Although she was poor, she didn¡¯t let the little girl do any heavy work. ¡°When the little girl was ten years old, the old woman couldn¡¯t hold on and fell ill.

She gave up everything she had before adulthood and followed her biological mother and brothers back home. ¡°As a result, the adopted daughter of the family had expanded the bedroom to the girl¡¯s room. She had to sleep in a storeroom. Her brothers disliked her, and whenever the adopted daughter cried, all the me fell on her. Being locked in a dark room, scolded, and beaten became a routine. Sometimes she couldn¡¯t even have a proper meal, or the food was spoiled. Those days were much worse than before. She also faced school violence, but she endured it silently, not wanting to cause trouble for her family. ¡°During the SAT, even though her results were good, her family insisted she give up her chance to go to university for the adopted daughter. ¡°But she foolishly thought her family just couldn¡¯t ept her temporarily, so she tried her best to please them.

No matter how powerful Cassandra was, she was still vulnerable to physical harm. Hugo thought, ¡®What if there is danger? What if she gets injured? ¡®I have lived for half a lifetime and have grown indifferent to life and death, but Ms. Yates is different. At just eighteen years old, she is in the prime of her youth and shouldn¡¯t be staying in such a perilous ce. Cassandra¡¯s face darkened, and she said in a cold voice, ¡°Hugo, I took this order. I should stay here. I¡¯ll contact some people and send you backter. You should go back first. In her opinion, it was her duty, and she shouldn¡¯t let Hugo stay there. She had thought she could at least have a few more days of ceasefire. By then, Leanna¡¯s poison would have been mostly removed, and they could handle their own affairs and recuperate. There was no need for her to stay there any longer. The reason why she let Hugo stay there was that she didn¡¯t want to cooperate with the people in the Queen¡¯s. Pce, and she didn¡¯t want to have too much contact with them at all. Keh and Jeremiah had more important matters to attend to and needed to return soon. She was unwilling to let Hugo stay there, and she didn¡¯t expect the war would Cassandra thought, ¡®Why are Theodore and the others too slow? They haven¡¯t prepared the herbs yet! ¡°That¡¯s so annoying!¡± Hugo said, ¡°I¡¯m not going back. I¡¯ll stay here. Ms. Yates, it¡¯s you who should go back. You have more important things to do than stay here.¡± Wed, 13 Mar Chapter 285 68% He knew that Cassandra had other identities, such as being part of the National Security Bureau and the Information Security Department. When wars broke out in other countries, the nation should be on high alert. Hugo was right. After the outbreak of the war in Zosteylor, the Information Security Department had been gathering its people. It was just that Cassandra was absent. ¡°Without me, the department won¡¯t copse, and besides, I can do my work remotely. There aren¡¯t many people who can attack the security systems I¡¯ve set up,¡± said Cassandra confidently, lifting her eyebrows. She was confident. ¡°But¡­¡± Hugo wanted to say something more but was interrupted by Cassandra. ¡°Well, Hugo, I left you here yesterday because I thought they would ceasefire for at few more days. I was thinking that we would go back once I detoxified Ms. Leanna Stark and Harper. I thought it wouldn¡¯t take long. But now that war has broken out, if you don¡¯t leave now, it will be dangerous.¡± She didn¡¯t have many family members, but they all had a close bond with her, and they were all chosen by her and cared for her in return. Therefore, she would do her best to protect the family that she epted. ¡°Ms. Yates, the more you say, the less likely I am to leave. I won¡¯t leave you. If you want me to leave, then let¡¯s leave together. Hugo said with deep sincerity, ¡°You¡¯re my master. Wherever you are, I¡¯ll be there too. I don¡¯t care about other things as long as you¡¯re safe.¡± He didn¡¯t consider his life important at allpared with Cassandra¡¯s. Cassandra sighed and looked at Hugo with a serious expression. She said, ¡°Hugo, I have never regarded me as your master. You are not my subordinate. You¡¯re my family, irreceable family to me.¡± Since the death of Blossom and her encounter with Hugo, he had taken good care of her for several years.. Hugo had been there for her when she fell ill. During her first menstrual period, he gave her the first ss of warm water. And when she went abroad, he cared for her with meticulous attention. He took care of her as Blossom did and made her feel warm andfortable. 2/5 Chapter 285 He was just as important to her as Blossom had been. ¡°I know it. I¡¯ve always treated you like my granddaughter, so I won¡¯t leave,¡± Hugo said with a gentle smile. ¡°Well, I¡¯ll go check on Her Majesty now. Ms. Yates, you should get some rest.¡± He left briskly, not feeling afraid because of the war outside. Instead, Cassandra¡¯s words had made him feel content. However, he thought that the ce was ultimately unsafe, so it was best to leave as soon as possible. As soon as Cassandra sat down in the room, Keh¡¯s video call came. It wasn¡¯t that he hadn¡¯t tried to video call her to confirm her safety immediately, but he didn¡¯t expect the conflict to erupt so soon, and he wasn¡¯t adept at making video calls yet. While Yannick was trained to make a report again, Keh rushed to the superior¡¯s office and pulled Yannick out. Cassandra raised her eyebrows and answered the video call. Keh said anxiously, ¡°Cassie, how¡¯s everything going? Are you okay? I¡¯ll arrange for a ne to bring you back.¡± Keh didn¡¯t care about the treatment of Leanna and Harper. He thought that other people¡¯s lives had nothing to do with him, and he couldn¡¯t bear to see Cassandra risk her life to treat others. In his opinion, Leanna was useless because she wasn¡¯t able to quell internal strife within her own country. Cassandra paused for a moment. But she felt warm in her heart. In this world, having someone love her was enough. ¡°You don¡¯t have to. Don¡¯t send anyone. I¡¯ll stay here for a few days. Don¡¯t worry. I¡¯ll be fine,¡± said Cassandra. And she thought she wouldn¡¯t let herself be in danger. 3/5 A 10.32 Wed, 13 Mar u B Chapter 285 68% ¡°No, it¡¯s too dangerous where you are. It¡¯s not safe at all. Bombs are being dropped. sporadically. What if you get hurt?¡± Keh was worried. Then he ordered Yannick and said, ¡°Gather a group of people and leave in half an hour.¡± ¡°Yes, sir!¡± Yannick saluted! ¡°Wait, Yannick. Stop!¡± said Cassandra. Yannick was a bit puzzled. He couldn¡¯t understand why he still felt such a strong sense of oppression from Cassandra, even through the phone. He didn¡¯t know who he should listen to now. ¡°Ken, it¡¯s not me you should care about now. Don¡¯t worry. I¡¯ll be fine. During the previous war, did you see Queen¡¯s Pce get hit by mistake? Trust me, at most¡­¡± Cassandra paused for a moment. She continued, ¡°As long as Theodore can get the herbs I need today, I¡¯ll be back in five days. Just give me five more days.¡± Keh shook his head without thinking. He said, ¡°Five days is too long for me to rest assured.¡± He thought that anything could happen in five days. Cassandra said, ¡°It was already the fastest. Well, if there is any danger in the Queen¡¯s Pce, I will evacuate immediately. There¡¯s a conste and an army here. I¡¯ll go find them, and then wait for your people toe pick me up. Is that eptable?¡± Keh suddenly realized that the conste hadn¡¯t been evacuated yet ording to the original n, which was supposed to happen in half a month. However, in an emergency situation like this, it would probably be evacuated in a short time. The conste was a safe ce, so he could inform people there beforehand. He replied, ¡°OK. If anything happens, I¡¯ll have some people from the constee pick you up. You and Hugo must go with them. I¡¯ll wait for you toe back to Drieso.¡± ¡°Okay, I understand,¡± said Cassandra.

Chapter 283 Suddenly, there came a series of knocks on the door. SEND GIFT Chapter 286 Chapter 286 It wasn¡¯t Hugo knocking on the door. Cassandra hung up the video call with Keh and opened the door. It was Harper. Cassandra frowned and was about to say something when Harper grabbed her hand and ran outside. Cassandra was stunned by his inexplicable action. Then she suddenly broke free from Harper¡¯s hand. ¡°What the hell are you doing? Are you out of your mind?¡± Cassandra was a little annoyed. She thought, ¡®What¡¯s wrong with him?

They have to line up for treatment,¡± Cassandra said angrily. She thought, ¡®Why are the people in this country all so weird?¡± ¡°No. Those people don¡¯t believe that you are Mom¡¯s daughter and not Zosteylor¡¯s princess. Mom wants to pass on the position of Queen to you, so those stubborn old men can¡¯t stand it anymore.¡± Harper also didn¡¯t know why Leanna suddenly wanted to give her position to Cassandra. He thought, ¡®Isn¡¯t that a disguised way to restrain Cassie? Mom gave birth to her but didn¡¯t raise her, and now she even wants her to inherit the throne of Zosteylor. Cassie will hate us more!¡± Sure enough, Cassandra¡¯s face darkened at once. She thought, ¡®What did he say? ¡®Give me the throne? What the hell is wrong with her? ¡®What is it? Apensation or an encumbrance?¡± ¡°You guys are really ridiculous. Have you ever asked my opinion? You abandoned me and epted me at will. And now you even want to give such a mess to me?

He wanted to say something, but he didn¡¯t know what to say. He thought, ¡®That¡¯s not what we meant.. ¡®Mom just wants to take her in as soon as possible, and she knows that she doesn¡¯t have much time left.¡± Cassandra was furious and shouted coldly, ¡°Take me to the meeting hall.¡± Harper was shocked by her voice. Hugo, who came from the other side, was also looking for Cassandra anxiously. ¡°Ms. Yates, they¡¯re looking for you with guns in their hands!¡± Harper was startled. He looked at Cassandra and said, ¡°Cassie,e with me. Just leave it to Mom and Dad.¡± ¡°They are your parents, not mine. No one can control my life, especially the two of them. They don¡¯t deserve it!¡± Cassandra turned to Hugo and said coldly, ¡°Hugo, take me to the meeting hall.¡± ¡°Ms. Yates¡­¡± ¡°Now!¡± Hugo could only listen to her.

The DNA can be fake. What if she¡¯s a spy sent by our enemy or other countries?¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. You said she was Clusian, but Clusians are also not all good.

Why do I have to admit it once she wants to ept me?¡± Leanna and Darren turned to look at Cassandra in surprise. They didn¡¯t expect her toe here.

And then let you decide my future life?¡± Cassandra strode towards Leanna and then asked coldly, ¡°Have you asked for my opinion? Have I epted you? Who allowed you to decide my future? ¡°You were the one who abandoned me before, and also the one who wants to ept me. And now you even want to decide my life. Do you think that I should be controlled by you and listen to you all my life?¡± There was resentment in Cassandra¡¯s heart, which could not be erased. Leanna¡¯s face with surprise turned pale. She took two steps back weakly. She didn¡¯t expect that her daughter would hate her so much. Leanna thought, ¡®But if she hates me, why is she treating me and even willing to stay here?¡® Leanna¡¯s eyes were full of sadness and disbelief.

However, Keh had evidence of Kam poisoning Leanna. When he got the evidence, he felt himself very useless. Cassandra handled everything on her own. Kam suddenly burst intoughter as if she had heard something ridiculous. ¡°Mr. Zelinski, are you kidding me?¡± Kam thought, ¡®Another truce? ¡®I¡¯ve fought all the way to the gate of the Queen¡¯s Pce, and now he wants me to truce? What the hell is he talking about?!¡± ¡°No. Ms. Kam Stark, you¡¯ve been hiding everything well. And so does the spy you put beside Her Majesty. I guess Mr. Yates still hasn¡¯t suspected that person until now.¡± Keh thought, ¡°That¡¯s it? How can they guard a country like this? ¡®So weak. ¡®So indecisive. They¡¯re not even as fierce as Cassie, Although Cassie likes to keep 275 D 10:38 Thu, 14 Mar UG Chapter 293 76%1 the enemies and slowly have fun with them, she will also give them a fatal blow at the most critical time. ¡®But look at them.

After each contact, you will transfer arge amount of money to her. Thest time you contacted her was to ask her to poison them with Blue Sky, right?¡± Keh¡¯s words made Kam¡¯s expression slightly change. She thought, ¡®How did he know that? ¡®Wait, Emery, the top one on the hacker list, is in the Falcon Special Operations Force. Did she ask someone to look into it? ¡®But those are all my secrets. How did he know that?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t know what you are talking about,¡± Kam denied. Keh ignored her and took out his phone. He found out the evidence and said, ¡°You can check it yourself.¡± He handed the phone to Kam. The more she looked at it, the darker her face became. Keh snorted coldly. ¡°Don¡¯t think about smashing my phone. No matter how terribly you destroy it, I can give you exactly the same thing. So, be careful with my phone, Ms. Stark.¡± Kam got furious. She thought, ¡®Damn it! How did they get the evidence so fast?!¡± ¡°What do you want?¡± Kam asked. ¡°What I said just now.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t go too far!¡± Kam gritted her teeth. ¡°I¡¯m alone now. I just want to try my best to protect my girlfriend,¡± Keh said casually. 3/5 A Chapter 293 ¡°Aren¡¯t you afraid that I willy hands on her?¡± Keh nced at Kam contemptuously and said nothing. He thought, ¡®You wanna hurt Cassie? ¡®Let¡¯s see who¡¯s gonna lose. Keh refused to negotiate with Kam. It didn¡¯t matter if it was something ordinary. But poisoning the Queen was illegal. If she illegally obtained this throne, she would be ousted from power by the people and punished by the Supreme Court that wasn¡¯t ruled by the Queen. Then all she did would be meaningless. ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll give you five days. If you and your girlfriend still haven¡¯t left by then, don¡¯t me me for being rude.¡± Kam nced at Darren. ¡°I don¡¯t want any other people to have it.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry. After my girlfriend and I leave, this will be handed over to you together with the negatives and original evidence.¡± ¡°I hope so.¡± Kam left angrily. Theodore walked up to Keh and questioned him, ¡°Why did you let Kam go? Do you have evidence of her poisoning them?¡± ¡°If you don¡¯t let her go, do you want her people to attack you directly? Go to the window and see how many people there are. Don¡¯t you check the enemy¡¯s strength when you fight with them? You¡¯ve sent all the troops out, and the Queen¡¯s Pce is just an empty shell. Even if you have ammunition, do you have enough people? ¡°The more people you have, the stronger you are. Besides, there are so many of them and they¡¯re all well¨Cequipped. How can you fight against him? I don¡¯t want Cassie to get hurt at all.¡± Keh looked at Theodore as if he was looking at a fool. ¡°The evidence I get is my business. I¡¯ve made a deal with Kam. If you¡¯re capable enough, find the evidence yourself. ¡°If I were you, I would take advantage of the five¨Cday truce to find a way to capture Kam alive, find the evidence, and let the Supreme Court sanction her instead of threatening her here. That¡¯s completely useless!¡± O 5/5 Chapter 293 76% Keh was not polite at all. He felt that they really needed to be scolded.

Cassandra thought that Omar would agree with her decision, but he knocked her on the head with a bang. She was in pain. She thought, ¡®What¡¯s his hand made of?

Just take it as returning the favor of giving birth to me. Now I have Hugo, Jeremiah, and my boyfriend. It¡¯s quite good.¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t mind it.

It was just that there were other reasons. 1/5 A 10:38 Thu, 14 Mar Chapter 294 It didn¡¯t affect Cassandra¡¯s judgment. Omar coughed and thought, ¡®What a conscienceless brat.

She thought, ¡®He has already met Keh. Why¡¯s he so confused?¡® ¡°Cassandra! Why didn¡¯t you tell me about such an important thing?!¡± Omar lost his temper at once. ¡°I¡¯m telling you right now. We haven¡¯t been in a rtionship for long.¡± Cassandra said that indifferently.

I was gonna introduce him to you when youe back, but you¡¯ve already found one?¡± The more Omar thought about it, the angrier he became. ¡°Who is it? Who is that bastard?

She thought, ¡®Ken would have shown off as soon as they met if it were someone else. ¡®What¡¯s wrong with him today? How did he hold it back?¡± Omar frowned. ¡®Ken? So that bastard is Keh!¡® he thought. Omar¡¯s eyes turned cold and then he looked at the door. Keh was suddenly a little scared. He thought, ¡®Is it toote for me to leave now?¡® Under Omar¡¯s angry gaze, Keh walked into the room and plucked himself up to say, ¡°Hello, Mr. all. Let me make a formal introduction of myself. I¡¯m Keh Zelinski, Cassie¡¯s boyfriend.¡± Keh reached out his hand and wanted to shake hands with Omar, but he instantly felt that it was wrong, so he immediately withdrew his hand and bowed. It was the first time he had been so nervous. He was almost at a loss. Omar snorted coldly. ¡°Don¡¯t think I will agree to let you two be together after you bow. No damn way. Break up immediately!¡± Omar thought, ¡®He¡¯s the famous Mr. Zelinski in Drieso. He¡¯s cruel and ruthless. It¡¯s good enough to make friends with him, but he¡¯s not a good choice as a partner. ¡°That¡¯s a fatal choice!¡® Cassandra¡¯s and Keh¡¯s expressions both changed. Cassandra said coldly, ¡°You¡¯ve never cared about my business before. What¡¯s wrong with you today? Weren¡¯t you quite satisfied with him before?¡± Cassandra thought, ¡®Keh took him to the Queen¡¯s Pce and served him well. He was really satisfied. What¡¯s wrong with him? He suddenly starts to hate Keh in less than five hours?¡± Keh¡¯s face darkened, but he didn¡¯t take that seriously. He knew that Omar was doing it for Cassandra¡¯s good. Whether Omar wanted to test him or really disliked him, he could do anything for Cassandra. 3/5 0 A 10, 14 Mar 38 Chapter 294 He believed that he could handle an old man. 76% ¡°Mr. all, I love Cassie sincerely, and I¡¯ve loved her for many years. I won¡¯t let her suffer. Don¡¯t worry,¡± Keh assured Omar with a firm attitude and eyes. Omar could tell that Keh was sincere, but he still ignored Keh. He looked at Cassandra angrily and said in a reproachful tone, ¡°What? You¡¯re ming me for not paying attention to you now? Who ran away as soon as she learned the skills and barely visited me over the years?¡± Omar thought, ¡®What a conscienceless brat. I wanted to pay attention to her issues but she didn¡¯t give me a chance. She just made me angry all the time. Cassandra didn¡¯t know what to say. Omar was right. She ran away at once after she learned the knowledge of traditional medicine and knew how to treat people. They barely met during the years. ¡°Cut the crap. Anyway, Ken is my boyfriend. Whether you agree or disagree with it, you won¡¯t change the fact.¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t continue that topic. Because she knew that if she continued, Omar would have a lot of things to say and use her of countless crimes. Hearing that, Keh smiled slightly with his eyes full of tenderness. Seeing that, Omar closed his eyes with disgust on his face. So disgusting! ¡°Are you so sure that he really loves you so much and is not a jerk?¡± Omar began to nder Keh in front of him. ¡°Do you know how many rich women want to sleep with such a wealthy man like him? Who knows whether he¡¯s clean or not?¡± Keh was speechless. He thought, ¡®Don¡¯t nder me. ¡®I only have Cassie. I don¡¯t have other women!¡® 4/5 Chapter 295 Chapter 295 Keh was shocked by Omar¡¯s words. He hurriedly stepped forward and bowed slightly, ¡°Mr. all, I can assure you that there will be no other women. I have been alone since childhood without any childhood sweethearts or first love. Cassie should be my first love and the one who grew up with me, actually. ¡°I will not let Cassie suffer. When she agreed to be with me, I had already transferred all my property to her. If she abandons me, I¡¯ll lose everything.¡± It was the first time Cassandra heard about this as well. She looked at Keh in shock as if she wanted to confirm the truth of it. Even Omar was so shocked that he couldn¡¯t say anything. He stared at Keh, trying to see a w in his eyes and expression, but his gaze was so firm and sincere, and he didn¡¯t dodge at all. There was no sign of lying. ¡°When did that happen? I¡¯ve never signed anything in front of you.¡± Cassandra was very vignt about this kind of thing. She would read everything that she had to sign thoroughly. Therefore, she hadn¡¯t signed any property transfer agreements at all. She wouldn¡¯t sign it if she knew. Keh smiled, ¡°I know you didn¡¯t sign any, but you have a personal seal in Whitecrane Hall, so¡­¡± Cassandra was the boss of Whitecrane Hall. It was normal to have her personal seal there, but she didn¡¯t use it much. Cassandra couldn¡¯t believe what she heard. Keh stole her personal seal and transferred his property to her. She was surprised, happy, and even a little touched. It wasn¡¯t because Keh gave her all his money. She didn¡¯tck money. It was because he really cared about her. There would be many people who loved one, but few men dared to give all their properties to women. Cassandra felt she was blessed to meet such a person. How lucky she was. Omar changed his attitude and observed Keh again. 1/5 Chapter 295 There were so many good men in the world. But even the good man he found probably couldn¡¯t be as good as Keh. That was all his property. Keh was the richest man in the world. His assets could surpass Zosteylor¡¯s one¨Cyear GDP during its flourishing period. But he just gave all his property to Cassandra without hesitation. Omar was stunned. Omar finally came back to his senses after a long while. Then he asked, ¡°Are you telling the truth?¡± Keh just smiled faintly and said firmly, ¡°Mr. all, if you don¡¯t believe me, you can go to the notary office to check it.¡± Omar was speechless.. He didn¡¯t know what to say. Since Keh was so firm, it must be true. Omar feltplicated. He sighed and thought, ¡®Fine. They¡¯ll live their lives well. Even if Little Cassie really broke up with Keh, there would be no one who¡¯s more generous and kind to her than him. ¡®He¡¯s better. ¡°Keh, I¡¯m still not satisfied with you. After all, you are nine years older than Little Cassie. There is a huge gap. But I¡¯ll trust you once. If you dare to bully her, even if she won¡¯t beat you up, I still have countless ways to make you suffer!¡± Omar reluctantly agreed to let them be together, but he didn¡¯t forget to warn Keh. Keh¡¯s eyes suddenly widened. He thought, ¡®Is that a yes?¡± ¡°Sure, I will treat Cassie well and never let her suffer.

Please wait a moment.¡± Hugo had thetest examination reports of Leanna and Harper in his hand. He handed them to Omar and said, ¡°Mr. all, please take a look. These are thetest examination reports. ¡°Okay.¡± Omar thought, ¡®My room is not ready yet. I¡¯ll stay in Little Cassie¡¯s room for a while more. After reading the examination reports, Omar didn¡¯t find any big problems. Everything was under his control. The previous poison was not difficult. Cassandra could solve it in a few days as long as she got the medicine ready, but the treatment time would be long. post- But it would be a little tricky after Blue Sky was added in. It would take Cassandra a lot of time. She had to dpose the poison, make the antidote, and solve the previous poison. It would take more time. Leanna didn¡¯t have so much time left. That was why Cassandra asked Omar for help. ¡°Well, I didn¡¯t see any problem. I will stay here alone.¡± Omar said to Cassandra, ¡°You, Keh, and Hugo, go back to Clusia tomorrow.

She used him as a cushion andy against him. He was happy to let her do that. Omar was very disgusted to see that. He thought, ¡°These two brats!¡® ¡°No. It will take at least 20 days to remove all the poisons from her body, and she¡¯ll need time to recuperate. The time given by Omar was far from Keh¡¯s period of five days. But that kind of evidence couldn¡¯t gain much time. If Keh asked for more, Kam might directly fight them to the death. Five days was a reasonable choice. Omar thought for a while and felt it strange, so he asked, ¡°What do you mean by five days?¡± Then Keh told them what had happened in the Queen¡¯s Pce before. There would be only a five¨C day truce, after which Kam might be more violent and cruel. Omar immediately decided, ¡°Little Cassie and Keh, leave immediately. Go back to Clusia. Don¡¯t come to Zosteylor again.¡± He thought, ¡®It¡¯s not only a dangerous ce but also a sad one. They should nevere back again!¡± Cassandra shook her head and disagreed. ¡°I won¡¯t leave. I let youe here. How can I leave without you? Stop saying that.¡± Five days were good enough. Kam had already done her best. If Darren and Theodore still couldn¡¯t make any decision, then Kam would take the throne of Zosteylor sooner orter.

If you don¡¯t believe me, try it!¡± Omar¡¯s attitude was very resolute. If she didn¡¯t leave, he wouldn¡¯t treat her. It was useless to say anything. Cassandra couldn¡¯t help but say, ¡°Your attitude just now wasn¡¯t like this.¡± Omar raised his head and said sternly, ¡°I came here just for this.

Don¡¯t worry, our people will always be here guarding. If there is any danger, we will immediately take our mentor and Hugo away.¡± He was indirectly acknowledging this matter.

Now, it was time for them to have a taste of their own medicine. Keh and Cassandra left Queen¡¯s Pce and took a private ne back to Clusia.

Before, he had been blind, selfishly thinking that since she was his sister, she shoulde home, and let bygones be bygones.

Tomorrow is Monday, and you have to go to school.¡± In Zosteylor, there was no distinction between school days and weekends. Since she was back, she needed to take it seriously. Keh gently rubbed her head, feeling sorry for her. ¡°I¡¯ll go cook now. You should eat and sleep early. If you can¡¯t wake up tomorrow, then take another day off.¡± These were not big deals. During her days in Zosteylor, she hardly slept. Now that she was back in familiar surroundings, she wanted to sleep well and rejuvenate. Cassandra shook her head. ¡°I have to go to school tomorrow because it¡¯s the mid- term exam for the Traditional Medicine Department.¡± Physics Department¡¯s mid- term exam was in two days. ¡®If I skip the exams, Howard will probably scold me. ¡®I¡¯ve been on leave for almost half a month, barely attended sses for a month, and my leave is almost a month long.

He enjoyed cooking for Cassandra. He felt fulfilled when he saw her finish. the meal he prepared. While they cooked, the time passed peacefully, and everything felt good. It was the scene Keh had always longed for. He talked about what happened in the leader¡¯s office today and wanted to ask Cassandra¡¯s opinion. Cassandra didn¡¯t know what to say. Sometimes, she felt Keh was quite pitiful, being scolded by everyone for being. with her. But if she didn¡¯t agree, he wouldn¡¯t seed. ¡°Well, when we have time, let¡¯s go stay there for a couple of days. No need to wait until winter vacation,¡± Cassandra suggested. She had already epted this person in her heart. So, whenever she could meet his superiors and however she could, she didn¡¯t mind. As long as it was him, it didn¡¯t seem like a big deal. ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll arrange the time. You focus on your exams recently, and I¡¯ll keep an eye on Zosteylor for you.¡± Keh¡¯s heart felt warm. He thought Cassandra would refuse because, to her, those were just a group of strange middle¨Caged people, but she was willing to meet them. However, Cassandra¡¯s thoughts were different. If Keh wanted her to meet someone, that person must be very good to him. So why wouldn¡¯t she meet them? ¡°Yeah, I don¡¯t really care about Zosteylor. I¡¯m just worried about Mr. all and Hugo.

Since she had returned to the country, she should live well. 66% Cassandra was deeply moved. Suddenly, she couldn¡¯t help but close her eyes and gave Keh a kiss on the left cheek, making a ¡°mwah¡± sound. Then, she shyly ran to the living room, her face turning red. Whether from shyness or embarrassment, she wasn¡¯t sure. She used her small hand as a fan, fanning her face vigorously. Keh, who was suddenly kissed, was slightly stunned. He touched the spot on. his cheek where Cassandra had kissed, feeling incredibly tender inside. ¡®She¡¯s usually bold and daring, even daring to go to the battlefield. Why did she run away so fast after the surprise kiss? Is she afraid I would do something to her?¡® he wondered. Looking at Cassandra¡¯s shy and blush appearance, a thirsty gaze appeared in Keh¡¯s eyes. He actually wanted to do it with her, but Cassandra was too young. When she turned 20, he might start to do it. He busied himself in the kitchen for over an hour, and Cassandra didn¡¯te in to talk to him again. However, he had been paying attention to her movements in the living room all along. He couldn¡¯t help but smile at Cassandra¡¯s cute side, which was so rare. The next day, Keh woke Cassandra up. She was still a bit sleepy and didn¡¯t want to move, but Keh said, ¡°You have a mid¨Cterm exam today.¡± Cassandra immediately woke up, pushed Keh aside unsteadily, got out of bed, washed up expressionlessly, and went downstairs for breakfast.

How could she drop out?¡± Even if she dropped out, her idol wouldn¡¯t. Cassandra smiled lightly at their chatter, thinking things were just fine like this. ¡°Stop talking about the national championship. That was just one achievement, not a lifelong representation. Today is the mid¨Cterm exam, so how should we arrange the seating?¡± She had just returned and didn¡¯t know how things were arranged. Sofia and Cassidy nced at each other, then both looked at Cassandra. Sofia said, ¡°Cassandra, I think¡­ you can apply not to take the exam.¡± Mainly because the study of traditional medicine was too difficult. After not studying for so long, taking the mid¨Cterm exam would only bring her down from her pedestal. Moreover, the school had been talking, saying that the national champion was just a name. She had been on leave for over 20 days since the start of the school year, clearly not taking her studies seriously. She was bound to perform poorly in this mid¨Cterm exam. ¡°Oh, it¡¯s okay. I reviewed the content you¡¯ve been studying this morning, and I think I¡¯m okay.¡± Her words made other students coldly snort. Arrogant, let¡¯s see how many points. you can score!

But she forgot what kind of abnormal person she was a fan of. After arranging the seating quickly, while looking for her seat, Cassandra heard. some students talking in a strange tone. ¡°I wonder how the former national champion will score this time?¡± Several students gathered together, using Cassandra as their topic of discussion. ¡°I¡¯m curious too. She hasn¡¯t been to ss for so long. She won¡¯t be at the bottom, will she? Having the national champion be the bottom for us, just thinking about it feels exciting. It must be a hot topic.¡± Several people had a smug smile on their faces, clearly wanting to see a good show. Sofia was directly provoked. She pped the table of those people and said, ¡°Shut up, Cassandra might not havee to ss, but she¡¯ll still score higher than you in the exam!¡± After speaking, Sofia felt like giving herself a few ps. These students had been performing well in sses and their quiz scores were good too. But, Cassandra hadn¡¯t attended ss for so long and had only reviewed their materials this morning.

This time, she was thest one to enter the exam room. Even if someone had objections, they couldn¡¯t say anything now. After the physics exam, as expected, Cassandra was stopped by Emma at the ssroom door. O 66% Fri, 15 Mar u Chapter 299 ¡°Oh, our busy bee is back. You haven¡¯t been to ss for so long. Can you even score. 20 points? If I were you, I would definitely not take this exam. It would be shameful.¡± Emma was full of mockery, looking down on Cassandra with a superior attitude. Emma thought, ¡®How can a country bumpkin like herpare to me?¡® ¡°Emma, I don¡¯t remember ever offending you. If you still hold a grudge over the opening speech, you should go to the principal and ask him to arrange a special speech for you. You can stand on stage and say whatever you want, instead of buzzing around me like a fly!¡± Cassandra looked at Emma impatiently. She wasn¡¯t someone who would tolerate everything. Who was she to try to be sol conspicuous in front of her? ¡°You¡­¡± Emma¡¯s face showed a hint of guilt, and she said in a firm tone, ¡°It¡¯s not because of those little things. I just don¡¯t want you to drag down the average score of the Physics Department. Do you know how much you¡¯ll lower our average score if you score 10 or 20 points?¡± She spoke with righteousness, thinking that Cassandra, who hadn¡¯t been studying well, wouldn¡¯t perform well. What national champion? People who came from the mountains like her, besides rote learning, how smart could they be? ¡°Then I think you shoulde back and lecture me with righteousness after the results are out. Isn¡¯t it too early for that now?¡± Cassandra ignored Emma, not even sparing her a nce. She went straight to Howard¡¯s office. Howard was still in the ssroom, grumbling as he looked at the papers, wondering where Cassandra had gone and why she hadn¡¯te back yet! These physics questions were quite interesting. Without her, correcting these papers would be boring. Someone was knocking on the door. ¡°Come in.¡± Howard¡¯s voice was somewhat serious. He probably thought some student was trying to get his attention again, bringing some boring physics questions to him. ¡°What are you up to, old man?¡± Cassandra asked. 11:45 Fri, 15 Mar Chapter 299 66% Howard looked up when he heard the familiar voice. His face showed surprise, and he said somewhat sternly, ¡°You little troublemaker, where have you been? You¡¯ve been on leave for so long.¡± She hadn¡¯t attended his sses for several weeks. ¡°There were some things to take care of. Didn¡¯t the school receive my leave request?¡± Cassandra shrugged. She couldn¡¯t say what exactly she was up to, so she could only refer to the school receiving her leave request. Unexpectedly, a male voice came from outside the door, ¡°Yes, your leave request was received, and I find it troublesome!¡± It was the principal, who, upon hearing that Cassandra was in Howard¡¯s office, hade over with a bitter expression. He had always felt that Cassandra was extraordinary, but he didn¡¯t expect her to be this extraordinary. Who the hell requests leave with a leave slip delivered by the National Security Bureau? The leave slip had the National Security Bureau¡¯s logo on it, with a brief message: ¡°Cassandra is on a secret mission. Indefinite leave.¡± It was stamped with the National Security Bureau¡¯s official seal. With such a leave request, who dared not to approve it? Holding that kind of leave slip was like holding a hot potato. All her teachers had to be informed, her name couldn¡¯t be marked absent, and she couldn¡¯t be recorded as skipping ss. If someone on a secret mission for the country failed an exam, it would bring shame to the school if it got out. Cassandra was a bit embarrassed. She didn¡¯t know how the bureau chief had managed to request leave for her. At the time, she didn¡¯t know how long the mission wouldst. Taking long leave from school required a legitimate reason, or she might have to drop out. She didn¡¯t want to trouble the bureau chief, so she came back early and continued without affecting her sses, just maintaining a stable performance.

What you did was to protect the country, which is a pride. for our school. Taking a month off is nothing. Even if it¡¯s a year, it¡¯s fine,¡± the principal waved his hand, understanding the importance of her actions. Howard was about to say something, but he was interrupted by the principal¡¯s arrival. ¡°You can go back first. The results will be out next Monday. Don¡¯t disappoint me!¡± Howard felt that the principal had something to say, so he let Cassandra go back early. **Œ£Ü‡�í Next Monday came, and it was time for the results. Both the Traditional Medicine Department and the Physics Department were waiting to see Cassandra¡¯s performance as a joke. They wanted to see how well she would do in the midterm exams after being on leave for several weeks.. Sofia was also nervous. She was worried that if Cassandra didn¡¯t perform well, she would beughed at by these people. What would Cassandra do in the future? The first set of university results were posted publicly. The top ten in each department were handwritten by the teachers in calligraphy, while the rest were printed on A4 paper by theputer. Cassidy and Sofia rushed to the front to see Cassandra¡¯s results. If they were too low, they would suggest that Cassandra take a few days off ande back after this incident had passed. Suddenly, Cassidy patted Sofia on the shoulder, but Sofia didn¡¯t respond. She was searching for Cassandra¡¯s ranking on the list. Cassidy stared intently at the list and then patted Sofia harder, saying, ¡°Look!¡± She pointed to the top few words on the list. Cassandra had taken a total of 7 exams, excluding her minor. 11:45 Fri, 15 Mar Chapter 299 Cassandra got a total of 699 points, only one point away from a perfect score.

If she coulde study physics, I can let her serve as the professor, he thought. She could easily be a special professor, but she insisted on being a student. He didn¡¯t know what she was thinking. Emma, seeing her name in the third ce on the list, felt very ufortable. What made her feel most humiliated was that Cassandra, who hadn¡¯t attended sses for more than 20 days, actually scored full marks. ¡®She must have cheated! I¡¯m gonna report it!¡® she thought. In the traditional medicine ssroom, Cassandra was used of cheating by her ssmates face to face. The instructor didn¡¯t know what to say. The results of the exams were too unbelievable. ording to several traditional medicine professors, the questions this time were set by Traditional Medicine Association, and no one had scored full marks yet. The reason Cassandra didn¡¯t get full marks this time was that the pharmacology professor got super strict and took off a point for her handwriting. Otherwise, this would have been a perfect score, which in their eyes, was already a perfect score. ¡°Sir, Cassandra cheated.

She asked Sofia and Cassidy in a lowered voice, ¡°What¡¯s her name?¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t know her, so she didn¡¯t understand where such hostility came from. Sofia was speechless. Sofia thought, ¡®Seriously? She¡¯s being targeted and even doesn¡¯t know who¡¯s targeting her?¡® ¡°The one who just reported you to is Anabe.

When Cassandra arrived, the professors of traditional medicine and the physics teachers were all sitting together, with Anabe, who had just walked out of the ssroom, and Emma from the physics ss. When everyone was almost there, the principal spoke first. ¡°Cassandra, do you know how many points you got in both majors this time?¡± ¡°I got full marks in physics, and I should have gotten full marks in traditional medicine too.

Before the principal could speak, Anabe interrupted, her eyes full of mockery, ¡°So you mean, you should have gotten full marks, and the deduction of one point. is the teacher¡¯s fault, right? You¡¯re not even trying to conceal your cheating?¡± ¡°I didn¡¯t say that. The deduction of one point should be for the appearance of the paper, not for anything else.

She had checked Cassandra¡¯s papers in other subjects and found that she had done them perfectly, even better than the reference answers. This was not something an ordinary person could achieve. Cassandra nodded understandingly after listening to her words, ¡°Following the teacher¡¯s approach, one point for the appearance of the paper is not a big deal. It¡¯s also a reminder to myself.¡± The pharmacology teacher was even more satisfied with Cassandra. She didn¡¯t believe Cassandra had cheated, but she was more curious about how she had made it. ¡°I want to ask you, how did you manage to perform so well?¡± This question was not only her question but also the question of the traditional medicine professors present.

Darren was speechless. ¡°I¡¯ll give you a prescription. Hugo will prepare the medicine for youter, and you can ask the kitchen to prepare it for you. You¡¯ll be fine after drinking it for a week.¡± Hugo took the prescription and looked at it. What? A week? He may live in the bathroom. Chapter 306 O Chapter 306 Keh and Lucas chatted in the coffee house. Although Lucas was not angry at first, he still didn¡¯t like Keh. He thought of Keh as a friend. At first, when he introduced Keh, Cassandra called him ¡°uncle¡°. But now, this guy actually dated Cassandra. But what else could he do? Keh had known Cassandra for a long time. N?velDrama.Org (C) content. It could be said that this guy had no bottom line from the beginning. When he met Cassandra, he had come of age, but Cassandra was still a student in elementary school. ¡°Keh, I know you are a big shot, but I am not afraid of you. If you dare to make Cassie unhappy, I will make you pay for it.¡± Lucas knew that he couldn¡¯t stop them from being together. Frankly speaking, he was not qualified to do so. But as long as Keh was nice to Cassandra, it didn¡¯t matter. Sylvia was right. He had no right to me Keh because he was no better than Keh. Lucas was eight or nine years older than his wife. Keh nodded slightly and said seriously, ¡°I promise you I won¡¯t let Cassandra be unhappy.¡± Lucas snorted and didn¡¯t even look at Keh. No one should trust men, especially handsome and rich men. He said to Cassandra, ¡°If he bullies you in the future, just call me and Sylvia. We¡¯ll help you, okay?¡± Cassandra felt warm in her heart and nodded with a smile. ¡°Okay. If he bullies me, I¡¯ll bring him to you and let you and Sylvia punish him for me.¡± Cassandra smiled softly and looked at Sylvia. Sylvia patted Lucas and said happily, ¡°Well, I think Keh is more reliable than you. Don¡¯t worry about him. Besides, Cassie has us.¡± Lucas thought it was true. ||| Chapter 306 57% ??? Sure enough, Sylvia was right. They talked more before they parted. When Keh got in the car, he sighed quietly. Or it was a kind of relief. Cassandra tilted her head with a smile on her face, which made Keh dumbfounded. ¡°What¡¯s wrong? Why are you sighing?¡± Cassandra¡¯s tone was rxed. She sounded at little happy. ¡°I suddenly feel that the road to marrying you in the future will be very long.¡± Keh pretended to be sad and sighed. He put his left hand on the steering wheel and tapped on the instrument panel with his slender fingers. He looked a little sad.. Cassandra nodded seriously. ¡°Yeah. What should we do? Break up?¡± Keh¡¯s face changed, and he leaned towards Cassandra. He grabbed her neck. with his right hand and said in a serious tone, ¡°Cassandra, never say ¡®break up, okay?¡± In his life, he never wanted to hear the word ¡°break up¡°. He and Cassandra would be together forever. ¡°But¡­ Didn¡¯t you say it would be a long way to marry me?¡± Cassandra was not afraid of him. He just pretended to be strong and would never be mad at her. ¡°I mean it¡¯s been a long time, but I didn¡¯t say that I would give up. I will never give up on you.¡± Keh¡¯s eyes were firm. He said it was long because many people around Cassandra treated her sincerely, and everyone loved her as if she was a treasure. It was a little hard to take Cassandra from them. However, as long as he could marry Cassandra in the future, he could do anything. The sudden confession made Cassandra a little overwhelmed, and her cheeks. flushed slightly, which made Keh feel itchy. He was about to kiss her when a bell interrupted him. Keh wanted to ignore the ringtone directly, but Cassandra pushed him. He Chapter 306 had no choice but to answer the phone first. His tone was a little dull. He looked at the remarks on the phone, and his eyes were full of anger. He picked it up and said, ¡°You¡¯d better have something urgent.¡± Yannick felt the anger of his master. What was going on? Did he disturb the master? He said cautiously, ¡°Sir, Ethan and Lamont¡¯s mission has beenpleted. The evidence you gave them was also given to Theodore as ordered. They just want to ask when they cane back.¡± Keh raised his eyebrows and looked at Cassandra. ¡°Is the war over?¡± ¡°It¡¯s over. Kam has been sent to the Supreme Court of Zosteylor, awaiting trial.¡± ¡°Okay, then let theme back. But leave a few people to protect Hugo and Omar,¡± Keh ordered. Now that it was over, Hugo and the others were rtively safe. ¡°Okay,¡± Yannick paused and said, ¡°By the way, Leanna wakes up now. It¡¯s said that she will be completely detoxified in one or two weeks.¡± ¡°Okay, got it.¡± Keh hung up the phone. He looked at Cassandra, only to see that her face was calm and indifferent. ¡°Leanna is awake, so don¡¯t worry,¡± Kehforted Cassandra softly. ¡°The war is over. I have nothing to worry about, just wondering when Omar and Hugo wille back.¡± It would be impossible for her to take Leanna to heart. If Omar hadn¡¯t been there, she wouldn¡¯t have paid attention to it at all. In her life, she had no family and didn¡¯t need any. Since Leanna woke up, they were strangers in the future. It also fulfilled her promise to Darren. ¡°Don¡¯t worry. I also arranged for someone to stay in the Queen¡¯s Pce. She will bet fine.¡± The war had ended. The recovery of that country had nothing to do with them. ||| Chapter 306 The only thing they were worried about now was the safety of Hugo and Omar. ***** It had to be said that Keh and Cassandra didn¡¯t have to worry at all. Omar went well in the Queen¡¯s Pce. For the first time Darren drank that medicine, he went to the toilet twice. At night, he stayed in the bathroom for an hour. Darren felt that there was something wrong with the medicine and hurriedly went to Omar. ¡°Mr. all, is there anything wrong with this medicine? I have had diarrhea several times after taking it.¡± Darren¡¯s face was pale, no better than before. ¡°How is that possible? These are all good medicines, which are very helpful for your health, Omar didn¡¯t admit it, but continued to say, ¡°Did you eat something ipatible with this traditional medicine today? ¡°When drinking this medicine, you should avoid raw and cold things. Did you eat seafood?¡± If he remembered correctly, he saw lobsters during both meals. Anyway, it was hard to exin the ties of blood. Cassandra liked seafood much. It was either Leanna or Darren who liked seafood too. Now it seemed that it was Darren. ¡°Yeah.¡± Darren nodded with some difficulty. ¡°Can¡¯t I eat it?¡± ¡°Well, you can¡¯t take it while taking traditional medicine.¡± Hugo was speechless and thought, ¡®Mr. all calls white ck. It had nothing to do with seafood. very É« Chapter 307 Chapter 307 The weekend ended. Back in ss on Monday, a ssmate saw Cassandra as if she was a monster. What kind of pervert was this? She could get a full score without studying. She could also get a full mark in physics. To her, was there anything difficult in the world? Seeing Cassandra, Anabe looked unwilling. She angrily walked up to Cassandra and shouted, ¡°Cassandra, I¡¯m warning you. Stay away from Samuel!¡± Cassandra raised her eyes, frowned, and asked confusedly, ¡°Who?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t care how you make him like you, but I¡¯m telling you, Samuel is mine. Stay away from him.¡± She was mad with jealousy at the thought that he went to the principal¡¯s office for Cassandrast week. Why? Why did he like Cassandra? ¡°What¡¯s wrong with you? Who told you that Samuel liked me? Before you say that, please confirm it.¡± Cassandra was getting crazy. She had only talked to Samuel twice since she was in college. Did Anabe have persecution delusions? ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter what you say. Just stay away from him. Are you reluctant to part with him?¡± At the thought of this possibility, Anabe was even more unwilling to ept it, and her face became more distorted. ¡°A person like you will never deserve Samuel. Why don¡¯t you have a sense of shame?¡± Most of the students in the ss were watching the fun. They knew that Anabe liked Samuel, who is from the Physics Department, so Cassandra was trying to seduce Anabe¡¯s boyfriend. Cassandra was a bad girl. It was a terrible feeling to be scolded by someone for no reason. Cassandra asked, ¡°Anabe, we are not friends, but we are not enemies either. Why did you target me? Now you¡¯re warning me to stay away from Samuel. When did you see me. getting close to him? Who you like is your business. If you can¡¯t get the boy you like, the problem is you. Is it useful to warn me?¡± 11:18 Chapter 307 16 Mar @57% Cassandra snorted. ¡°You value Samuel, but I won¡¯t take him seriously. Do you know why?¡± She looked at Anabe without a trace of warmth in her eyes. When she looked at- the students in the ssroom, only Sofia and Cassidy showed a hint of worry on their faces. Others were gloating over it. Anabe asked, ¡°Why?¡± ¡°Because I almost sent him to court at the beginning. Do you think I will like him or will he like me?¡± Those who had this kind of thought were mad. Anabe was stunned. She had guessed many reasons in her mind just now, but this one she never thought of. ¡°Do¡­ Do you think I will believe what you said? Anyway, stay away from Samuel. I don¡¯t want to see you get too close to him,¡± Anabe did not forget to warn Cassandra. In the end, Sofia couldn¡¯t stand it anymore. She pped the table and stood up, pointing at Anabe, shouting, ¡°Are you out of your mind? Do you think everyone likes Samuel? Cassandra has a boyfriend, OK? He is much better than Samuel. Rather than warning Cassandra to stay away from Samuel, you should think about how to make him like you. He didn¡¯t even know your name until now. Why are you showing off here?¡± Sofia¡¯s words made Anabe break down. She pointed at Sofia¡¯s nose and scolded, ¡°You bitch! How dare you speak to me like that?¡± ¡°Why are you so noisy?¡± Suddenly, a cold voice came from the lecture table. It was Giancarlo who taught the basic theory of traditional medicine. ¡°Can¡¯t you see the time? How¡¯s your study?¡± When he looked at Cassandra, there was a trace of gentleness and pride in his eyes. Such an excellent student was in his ss. As a traditional medicine practitioner, she would be outstanding. Moreover, if he remembered it correctly, they were already discussing what position to give her. ¡°Cassandra, go back to your seat,¡± Giancarlo said gently. ||| 57% Chapter 307 Then he looked at Anabe, who was causing trouble, and said in a slightly cold tone, ¡°Since you don¡¯t want to attend my ss, then leave.¡± ¡°Mr¡­¡± ¡°Get out.¡± Anabe stamped her feet in anger, but Giancarlo didn¡¯t give her a chance to exin at all. She could only take the things and walk out of the ssroom. Before she left, she red at Cassandra fiercely. Cassandra shrugged her shoulders indifferently. In the ss, Cassandra was asked to answer questions at least 20 times. The students wondered if Giancarlo wanted Cassandra to teach his students. Cassandra also felt puzzled. She was asked to answer questions so many times, and she had no idea what was going on. N?velDrama.Org ? 2024. The most important thing was that in the following sses, the teachers of different subjects all brought up a lot of questions for her. Her schedule was full, so she had been answering questions from morning to night. In the end, she almost got angry, When thest ss was over, the loudspeaker in the ssroom suddenly rang. ¡°Hello, everyone. I¡¯m Emma from the Physics Department. Here, I would like to apologize to Cassandra from the Traditional Medicine Department¡­¡± When she finished speaking, she cried in the end as if she had been greatly wronged. She believed it was Cassandra¡¯s fault. Why should they me her? She was not only asked to apologize but also got a major punishment. If she did it again, she would be expelled from the school. This made her feel embarrassed. It was a humiliation to her. Emma cursed in private, ¡°Cassandra, I¡¯ll never let you go. You are the loser, not me.¡± After Emma finished her apology, the ss was in an uproar. They all looked at Cassandra with eyes that were no different from looking at a monster. Chapter 307 16 Mar ¿í57% +h ¡°Cassandra is badass. How could she let Emma apologize? She even apologized on the radio. Everyone heard her.¡± ¡°Who the hell is Cassandra? I heard that Mr. Hathaway even got involved. And the Houston family was completely ignored.¡± ¡°Oh, my goodness, Mr. Hathaway? But hisst name is not Yates.¡± ¡°Who cares? Let¡¯s not mess up with Cassandra in the future. She didn¡¯t do anything and was targeted for no reason. It is quite miserable.¡± ¡°I also think we shouldn¡¯t look down on Cassandra. Anyone that messes up with Cassandra will end up ugly.¡± ¡°Yeah. Sofia said that Cassandra has a boyfriend, so she doesn¡¯t like Samuel.¡± **ÖÐ** Although they talked in a low voice, others could still hear them. Sofia secretlyughed. It seemed that people in the school were afraid of power. ¡°Cassandra, Mr. Huddleston wants to see you in his office.¡± É« SEND GIFT O Chapter 308 COMMENT Chapter 308 In the principal¡¯s office, the dean of the Traditional Medicine Department and the dean of the Physics Department, as well as Howard, the professor, were present. When Edward saw Cassandraing, he greeted her warmly. Because she got Lucas and Keh as backups. If these two people were unhappy at any time, the university might be in danger. Although Juset University was a first¨Css university, it was short of money. There were too many professors and ssmates engaged in scientific research, which needed money. The university counted on Lucas, the government education allocation, and Keh for money. If they were unwilling to donate money, what would the university do? ¡°Cassandra, here you are.¡± Edward¡¯s ttering smile made Cassandra a little scared. Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. She dodged expressionlessly and said in a respectful tone, ¡°Mr. Huddleston, what can I do for you?¡± Edward then remembered his business. He said in a low voice, ¡°Here¡¯s the thing. The Board of Regents has discussed it. A talent like you can stay in our university. I know there will be better offers outside. But we want you to be a distinguished professor in the Physics Department here. We will guarantee you a doctoral diploma so that you can teach students.¡± Then he pondered for a moment and continued, ¡°As for the Traditional Medicine. Department, are you qualified to practice medicine?¡± With such excellent grades, she must have medical qualifications. ¡°Yes, what¡¯s wrong?¡± She also had a certificate of appointment from the Traditional Medicine Alliance. ¡°Then we will also award you a graduation diploma as a traditional medicine practitioner. You can choose to continue your studies or be a teacher.¡± In Howard¡¯s words, if a talent like her left the university, it would be a great loss for them. Cassandra was stunned. What were they going to do? 257% Chapter 308 ¡°I don¡¯t understand, Mr. Huddleston. Why did you give me such a great offer?¡± ¡°Here¡¯s the thing. ording to your current grades, all the teachers have told me that they are not qualified to teach you, so I can only let you graduate in advance. Professor Kaptur said that you are talented in physics, plus you are ine, so it¡¯s perfectly eptable for you to work at Juset University.¡± Edward looked at Cassandra with a smile. He believed it was a wonderful idea. Cassandra didn¡¯t know what to say. ¡°Cassandra, what do you think?¡± Edward asked. Howard walked up to Cassandra and pretended to be angry. ¡°Cassandra, you are a bad girl. You lied to me that you were a student. I didn¡¯t expect that you were ine. And you came here to learn physics for the research equipment of physics?¡± Although Clusia only had one set of equipment, she could have any equipment if she wanted. Why did she lie to him? Cassandra looked at Howard and said apologetically, ¡°I didn¡¯t mean to hide it. In the past, I studied for some purpose. Later, when I came back from abroad, I just wanted to keep a low profile. Unexpectedly¡­ Things became like this.¡± In her previous life, to return to the Yates family as a good girl, she hid all her identities. After she lived once and cut off contact with the Yates family, she then. realized that what she had before was hers. Why did she hide it? In the future, except for hiding Faye¡¯s identity, she would not hide anything. ¡°I don¡¯t care about the process. Think about what Mr. Huddleston said and be my colleague?¡± Howard came to the office simply to persuade Cassandra, or he would not be here. Cassandra looked at Edward and said, ¡°That¡¯s it. I will have two sses a month in the name of ine. For the rest of the time, I am free.¡± She paused and seemed to be thinking about the things in the Traditional Medicine Department. ¡°As for traditional medicine, I will participate in all activities that I can attend. I won¡¯t go to ss anymore. But I will attend all the exams. There is no need for me to graduate without exams.¡± 11:19 Sat, 16 Mar Chapter 308 She wanted to study traditional medicine as a practitioner, and she also wanted to go further on this road with people who liked traditional medicine. After graduation, her dream would be out of the question. For her, the identity of being a teacher or a student wouldn¡¯t affect her pursuing her dreams. ¡°That¡¯s okay. You can take the sses in the Traditional Medicine Department as you like in the future, and no one will restrict you.¡± The result was quite satisfactory. She couldn¡¯t ask for more. The dean of the Traditional Medicine Department felt sorry for Cassandra and even wanted to fight for it. However, if she didn¡¯t graduate directly, she would be a mouthpiece for the department in the future. Perhaps more students majoring in traditional medicine could be recruited next year. The dean of the Physics Department came here today not to discuss Cassandra¡¯s courses, but to make a handover with Howard. He was transferred to another department and was no longer in charge of physics. She was responsible for the whole Emma thing. She made a matter that had long been settled be what it was now and made two ssmates turn against each other and be enemies, so she should pay for what she did. After Cassandra left the office, she found that Cassidy and Sofia were waiting for her. ¡°Cassandra, what did Mr. Huddleston say?¡± Sofia couldn¡¯t help gossiping. ¡°Nothing. It¡¯s just about my studies,¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t say anything more. If she said those things, others may have thought she was showing off, so she did not intend to make it clear. There would be opportunities in the future. ¡°Well, I think you are wasted in Juset University, no matter as a student or a professor,¡± Sofia couldn¡¯t help but mutter. Cassidy couldn¡¯t help but roll her eyes. ¡°Sofia, you are exaggerating.¡± Sofia thought that Cassidy would say something insulting, but on the contrary, she said, ¡°Shouldn¡¯t it be better for Cassandra to be a professor here? At least we can see her every day.¡± 1:19 Sat, 16 Mar Chapter 308 Sofia was speechless. Who was exactly Cassandra¡¯s fan? Cassandra didn¡¯t know what to say. ¡°Aren¡¯t you the same?¡± Sofia couldn¡¯t help but talk back. ¡°All right, let¡¯s go to dinner.¡± As soon as Cassandra finished speaking, a phone call came in. She saw the name on her phone and smiled gently. ¡°Is the ss over? I¡¯m here to take you home for dinner,¡± Keh¡¯s beautiful voice sounded in her ear, and Cassandra looked happy. Seeing this, Sofia couldn¡¯t help but roll her eyes. ¡°I¡¯m done. Are youing to pick me up now?¡± Cassandra asked. ¡°Well, Keh, you¡¯re being unkind. Our idol just promised to have dinner with us.¡± When Sofia heard that someone wasing to pick up Cassandra, she knew it was Keh. Because Cassandra had never smiled so much when she answered other people¡¯s phone calls. Cassandraughed, and when Keh heard herughter, he felt sunshine around him. ¡°Then let¡¯s have dinner together. I¡¯ll take another car to pick you and your ssmate up for a fancy meal. It is on me.¡± They were Cassandra¡¯s ssmates and friends. Cassandra had few friends in the university after all. He hoped that Cassandra could enjoy her life at university instead of just studying. Sofia heard it and shouted, ¡°Great!¡± It was Keh¡¯s treat. They had to eat expensive food. ¡°Then we¡¯ll wait for you¡­¡± Chapter 309 Chapter 309 @ 57%2 About 40 minutester, Keh drove a Porsche to the university gate. And the three of them gathered together. Sofia was a foodie. They were discussing what to eat all the way. When they reached the gate, Keh also arrived. Perfect timing. Keh got out of the car and opened the door for Cassandra gracefully. Then, he opened the back seat door and let Sofia and Cassidy in by themselves. He also helped to protect Cassandra¡¯s head gently with his eyes full of affection and love. Sofia was speechless. Keh treated them so differently. However, it didn¡¯t matter when she saw Cassandra¡¯s boyfriend love her so much. After getting in the car, Keh asked, ¡°What would you like to eat? Have you decided which restaurant we are going to?¡± Sofia was good at socializing. She held the backrest and asked curiously, ¡°Keh, can we eat whatever we want?¡± ¡°Of course, you are Cassie¡¯s friends. You can choose whatever you want.¡± The prerequisite for Keh was that they were Cassandra¡¯s friends. So, they could eat whatever they wanted. If it were anyone else, he wouldn¡¯t care. Sofia and Cassidy looked at each other. Sofia suggested with a smile, ¡°There is a new fancy restaurant downtown. It¡¯s said that it tastes good, but you have to make an appointment in advance¡­ So, Keh, can we go there today?¡± Sofia mentioned it on purpose. She wanted to see what Keh could do for Cassandra, and whether he could treat her friends like his own friends. Cassandra didn¡¯t have many friends. She could count her friends with one hand. If Keh couldn¡¯t treat her friends well, he might not really like Cassandra. Keh looked at Cassandra and said, ¡°Would you like to go there? Or what else would you like to eat?¡± For him, only the needs of Cassandra were his top priority. If Cassandra wanted to go, then they could go. go, then they could choose If Cassandra didn¡¯t want to Chapter 309 other restaurants. Sofia was speechless. Who were Keh¡¯s guests today? Cassandra smiled lightly, and her soft tone surprised Sofia. Was she still Cassandra, who would talk indifferently in the ssroom? ¡°I want to try it, too. They say it¡¯s delicious.¡± Keh agreed immediately and decisively, ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll arrange it.¡± He asked Sofia to tell him the name of the restaurant, and he would find out the location. He sent the restaurant name to Yannick and asked him to deal with it.. When they arrived, the waiter immediately stepped forward to greet them and said respectfully, ¡°Mr. Zelinski, wee. Your room is ready.¡± Fifteen minutes ago, the manager hurriedly asked the waiter to identify someone and said that he would have a distinguished guestingter. They must respectfully wee the guest into the restaurant and give him the highest service. When the manager said the guest was Keh, the waiter trembled. Fortunately, today¡¯s Keh was not as scary as rumored. ¡°Well, take us there.¡± Sofia and Cassidy followed them directly into the room. Sofia was dumbfounded and thought, ¡®Is this the feeling of having power?¡± It was said that no one had the right to make an appointment in this restaurant, whether he was a politician or a big business shot. Unexpectedly, the so¨Ccalled. rules in front of Keh were nothing. Her father had booked a table three monthster, but she didn¡¯t expect she could.e here in advance. She didn¡¯t feel the truth until she sat in the private room. The waiter brought up a very exquisite menu for them and handed it to Keh, ¡°Mr. Zelinski, here is the menu.¡± 11:19 Sat, 16 Mar Chapter 309 ¡°Give the menu to those twodies and let them order.¡± Today, it was his treat.

What do you want to eat?¡± It was the first time he hade here, so he didn¡¯t know much about what was delicious and suitable for Cassandra. ¡°It¡¯s okay. Let them order.¡± Sofia took the menu and read it with Cassidy. When they looked at it, they felt shocked. Was a piece of foie gras so expensive? That was more expensive than what she had eaten. 579 Looking at the price of each dish, she suddenly felt that this menu was killing her¡­ It was really expensive. If she ate one meal, it would cost her more than half a year. of living expenses. She and Cassidy looked at each other, then closed the menu. Cassidy handed the menu to Cassandra carefully. ¡°Cassie, how about you make the order?¡± It was not suitable for them to order such expensive dishes. Cassandra took the menu in confusion and nced at it. She thought that they might think it was too expensive, so they were embarrassed to make an order. She closed the menu and said to the waiter, ¡°All the specialties. That¡¯s all. If we need anything else, we¡¯ll ring the bell.¡± Cassidy unconsciously widened her eyes and thought, ¡®She is really rich.¡± Cassandra was Samantha and ine. It seemed that she wouldn¡¯t be short of money. And her boyfriend/was the richest man in the world. This kind of person wouldn¡¯t be short of money at all. Sofia scratched her head with some embarrassment and said apologetically, ¡°Mr. Zelinski, Cassandra, I¡¯m sorry. I didn¡¯t know that this restaurant was so expensive, and my father had made an appointment three monthster, so¡­¡± Sat, Chapter 309 Sofia thought they could change to another restaurant. Although Keh was very rich, this meal was a little expensive. Her living expenses in half a year were 1 million dors, and the specialty dishes. ordered by Cassandra just now might be more than that. The point was that they would order more dishester? She felt dizzy now. ¡°It¡¯s okay. Thank you for taking care of Cassie at university,¡± Keh spoke in a deep voice, not deliberately getting close to them or keeping away from them.. Cassidy said, ¡°It¡¯s Cassie who takes care of us. We did little for her¡­¡± Sofia was also a little embarrassed and said, ¡°Cassandra is an outstanding student. She helped us in our studies, otherwise we couldn¡¯t pass the examination at all.¡± When Cassandra was bullied by others, Sofia and Cassidy would stand out for her. That was all they could do. +6 ¡°Take it easy. Cassie told me about what you did for her in the ssroom. I¡¯m not always around Cassie, so I can¡¯t take care of her all the time. Thank you for backing. her up there.¡± After saying that, Keh took out two business cards from his pocket and handed them to Sofia and Cassidy. ¡°If anything happens to Cassie at university or someone bullies her, please call me.¡± Cassandra tilted her head and looked at Keh. ¡°Are you trying to bribe my friends?¡± Keh smiled. ¡°Yes, I do. So what? I can do anything for you.¡± He tried his best to protect Cassandra. He didn¡¯t want the whole giarizing thing to happen again. He had to wait for Hugo to tell him. That feeling was really bad. Hearing this, Sofia suddenly felt that the business card in her hand was not so good. Keh took every opportunity to show his affection to Cassandra. Chapter 310 Chapter 310 It didn¡¯t take long before the waiter arrived. ¡°Hello, I¡¯m here to serve you¡­¡± Suddenly, the voice stopped abruptly. The waiter looked up and stared at Cassandra with wide eyes. His eyes dodged, and he even wanted to flee the scene immediately. Cassandra also felt a little unbelievable. Why did Matthew work here as a waiter? Matthew couldn¡¯t help but nce away, not daring to look at Cassandra in his eyes. Sofia sensed something was wrong. She nced at the waiter and suddenly got angry. She stood up all of a sudden and said, ¡°Well, isn¡¯t this Matthew from the Yates family? Since when did you be a waiter?¡± She wanted to vent her anger a long time ago, but she couldn¡¯t find any chance. It was them who made Cassandra¡¯s childhood unhappy, and they also made Cassandra return home to be tortured. She didn¡¯t expect that they were still alive after such a long time. Why? That was unfair. Matthew looked embarrassed, but he didn¡¯t dare to leave. If there was any mistake in serving dishes, the money would be deducted, and if there were anyints, the money would also be deducted. Now what he needed most was money, so he couldn¡¯t leave. He forced a smile and said, ¡°Dear guests, I¡¯ll serve you the dishes now.¡± Sofia stopped him and said sarcastically, ¡°Mr. Yates, why don¡¯t you say hello to your acquaintance?¡± She looked at Cassandra and then Matthew. ¡°Why do you forget your sister so soon?¡± She suddenly nodded seriously. ¡°You¡¯re right. The Yates family is dying, while Cassie is getting better and better. You don¡¯t deserve to greet her.¡± s eyes word erratic, and there was a trace of sadness in his eyes. He said, ¡°Miss, I don¡¯t seem to know you. Please let me do my job. Some dishes will taste. worse when they get cold.¡± O Chapter 310 16 Mar Cassandra didn¡¯t look up at Matthew from beginning to end, except that she was sure it was him. ¡°Sofia, don¡¯t let others ruin our day,¡± Cassandra spoke in a deep voice.. Sofia sat down reluctantly. ¡°Cassandra, how can you let them go so easily? They are just a bunch of assholes who bully you. If you don¡¯t fight back now, you¡¯ll regret itter.¡± She thought, ¡®Is Cassandra bing soft¨Chearted?¡± No, this kind of person didn¡¯t deserve sympathy. Cassandra chuckled and said softly, ¡°I¡¯m not a child of their family. They don¡¯t have to pay for my past. I¡¯ve been in the Yates family for two months, and I¡¯ve taken r revenge on them all. The Yates family has nothing to do with me now.¡± They were not the real cause of her childhood tragedy. Except for Yulissa, who was still alive, they were lucky to live so long. The whole family experienced falling into ruin, and it was their fault. Didn¡¯t they use to be bossy and look down on waiters? Now Matthew had be a waiter himself. Sofia was a little shocked, and her tone suddenly rose. ¡°Aren¡¯t you their child?¡± She looked at Cassandra and then Matthew. It seemed that Cassandra made sense. Cassandra was so excellent, and the people in the Yates family only looked smart. They were just idiots. Otherwise, how could they be fooled by Yulissa? Fortunately, Cassandra had nothing to do with the Yates family. ¡°But it¡¯s true.

About the freshman, Cassandra¡­ She graduated, obtaining her doctorate. From enrollment to graduation, there were only two months. During that period, she had taken more than 20 days off and a week of mid¨Cterm examinations for two departments. There was such a great gap between her and ordinary students. In the university stadium, there were as many students as they could stand. In the front were students from the Physics Department, and the rest were just watching the drama. Cassandra was a legendary figure in the university. She was the number one SAT student. She asked for leave shortly after the beginning of the semester, and now she came back to take a mid¨Cterm examination. Then she sessfully graduated from university and got a PhD? Even many graduate students and PhDs came to see what was going on. ¡°We are gathered here today to witness Cassandra¡¯s graduation¡­¡± Edward gave an impassioned speech about how excellent Cassandra was and ine¡¯s achievements in physics. The university wanted to create a better learning environment for students and attract more talent working there. Therefore, the university decided to hire Cassandra as a distinguished professor in the Physics Department at Juset University. She would have one ss for graduate students a month and one ss for college students. All sses were open, and. everyone could attend them if they wanted. There was no threshold. As long as one signed up, he could go there. Such a reversal was beyond anyone¡¯s expectation. Cassandra not only graduated but also became a distinguished professor. Emma witnessed all this from below and felt fierce in her heart. It was all Cassandra¡¯s fault. She made Emma embarrassed and robbed the mant Emma¡¯s grandfather set her up with. How could Cassandra be so bitchy? Sat, Chapter 311 ¦° After Cassandra graduated sessfully, Howard couldn¡¯t wait to arrange sses for her. He only sent the time and ce for the ss. Howard: [Lecturer: ine (Cassandra)] Although this piece of message was strange, everyone in the Physics Department knew that Cassandra was an extremely outstandingdy. No matter what, they had to attend her ss. Damn it! Why did Howard only give 200 ces? It wasn¡¯t far enough. Didn¡¯t he know that there were more than 200 physics graduate students at Juset University? Everyone couldn¡¯t believe there were only 200 ces for undergraduate students. The students of the Physics Department went crazy when they saw this notice. What was more, Sofia and Cassidy, two students from the Traditional Medicine. Department,peted for sses with students from the Physics Department. In just a few seconds, all 200 ces were upied. The students who failed to get the chance wereining in the university group. ¡°I want to smash myputer now. Why can¡¯t I take ine¡¯s ss? Myputer is garbage.¡± ¡°I didn¡¯t get the chance either.

On Monday, Keh drove Cassandra to the university. But this time she didn¡¯t there as a student but as a lecturer. go At 8:28, she got out of the elevator on the fifth floor. She turned a corner and walked towards ssroom 505. But as soon as she turned. the corner, she was startled by the scene in front of her. There were many students at the door, so she frowned and stepped forward. Fortunately, she could see the scene in the ssroom. The ssroom was already full of people, and she knew it. It turned out that there were no seats. ¡°Everyone, you can¡¯t listen to the ss in the corridor. If it is convenient for you, you can go back to your ssroom first or see if there are ces in the back row of the ssroom.¡± Cassandra kindly reminded them. She didn¡¯t think that she could make everyone in the corridor listen to her ss even with a microphone. Moreover, so many people couldn¡¯t be dispersed at all. They could not see the PPT and writing on the ckboard, so it waspletely unnecessary to stand in the corridor. There was no way to remember and learn physics by listening alone. Therefore, she wanted these students to go back to their ssrooms first. She signed a contract with Juset University. She would have sses every month. 11:20 Sat, 16 Mar Chapter 811 ¦° ¡°But Professor Yates, it¡¯s a rare opportunity. We don¡¯t want to stand outside. There is no room inside.¡± A ssmate was very excited to see Cassandra. He also met her at ordinary times, but he was excited when he knew that Cassandra was a genius. But under the excitement, she didn¡¯t forget to fight for her rights. Cassandra didn¡¯t know what to say. ¡°Wait a minute. I¡¯ll go in and check it out.¡± Cassandra walked in and found that it was indeed full. Many people were standing in the back row. It was just that there were two rows of teachers in the front. What happened? It seemed that these teachers were here to listen to the lecture. Whether they came to test her or humiliate her, they all sat there. Moreover, after Howard issued the certificate to Cassandra, he sent the notice about Cassandra¡¯s ss and reserved several seats for himself and several other teachers. ¡°Are there any graduate students here?¡± Cassandra asked. It wasn¡¯t that she was suspicious of anything, but there were more than ten ssmates who looked a little old. Those people raised their hands, not knowing what Cassandra was going to do. ¡°Excuse me, today¡¯s ss is for undergraduate students. Could you please make room for them? I¡¯ll ask Professor Kaptur to reserve a ce for you in the postgraduate course. You can register with him.¡± Cassandra said patiently. and The postgraduate students were a little reluctant. A male student stood up said, ¡°Professor Yates, we also want to listen to your lecture. Besides, we got the ces, so it should be no problem.¡± ¡°It¡¯s no problem, but this is what you have all learned. Next time I will teach graduate students, and you will have ess to new knowledge, right? There are so many students waiting outside. What I can do now is to let the seniors make room for freshmen and ensure that you have ces in the postgraduate ss. OK?¡± Cassandra wasn¡¯t upset about the students¡® disagreement. After all, there were only quotas and no grade limits at that time, which was 1:20 Sat, 16 Mar Chapter 311 inappropriate at the beginning. But since there was a problem, it needed to be settled, right? 857% ¡°Okay, let¡¯s go first. Then we will ask Professor Kaptur for ces.¡± The man thought Cassandra had a point. Although he wanted to witness Cassandra¡¯s strength, it seemed that he could easily understand Cassandra¡¯s ss for the undergraduate students. ¡°Write down your names, sses, and grades first, and then you can leave.¡± Otherwise, if anyone came to pretend to be them, she would have to confirm it. So, it didn¡¯t take long for 18 students to leave their information. By the time they registered, Cassandra had hacked into the surveince cameras outside the ssroom and found the 18 students who didn¡¯t enter the ssroom. She read the names one by one and let them go into the ssroom. ¡°Professor Yates, why can they go in?¡± Someone questioned her. ¡°Because they are the first 18 people toe except for those in the ssroom. Firste, first served.¡± After all, she didn¡¯t know anyone. Only in this way could it be considered fair. Everyone had nothing to say. Seeing that Cassandra didn¡¯t intend to let them in, they could only leave silently. They couldn¡¯t stand here to listen to the ss. So¡­ They had no choice but to leave. É« Chapter 312 Chapter 312 The bell rang. Everyone began to wail. Even the professors who were listening to the ss felt that time flew. What was going on? # In the past, people felt the ss was boring. When students didn¡¯t listen to the lecture carefully, it was a kind of torture for teachers like them. Hearing the bell, Cassandra thought to herself that she had just finished her lecture. She smiled and said gently, ¡°That¡¯s all for today. ss is over.¡± As a student, she used to hate teachers who dyed the ss. Therefore, when she stood on this tform now, she would not be that kind of teacher. However, for these students, for the first time, they felt that physics was so easy to understand and were not willing to leave. Even Sofia felt that she, a physics loser, seemed to understand it. ¡°Goddess, tell more.¡± Cassandra shook her head and said, ¡°Focus when you study, and enjoy yourselves when it¡¯s time to knock off.¡± Howard was sitting in the first row, feeling relieved and jealous. He thought, ¡°Why haven¡¯t these kids been so active in ss before? Now they are all very attentive. ¡°Cassandra, when are you going to have sses again? Can we get more ces?¡± Cassandra was stunned and looked at Howard nkly. It seemed that it would be more convenient for him to answer this question. Howard stood up, looked at them seriously, and helped Cassandra out. ¡°I¡¯ll arrange the next ss as soon as possible and inform you in advance. Just get ready.¡± Cassandra smiled, nodded slightly to her students, and left straight away. Emma looked at her back, and her heart was more distorted than before. Why should she be so excellent? She must have done her homework to keep talking on the stage. ||| 57% Chapter 312 She was not apetent person at all. As soon as Cassandra walked out of the ssroom, her mobile phone in her pocket rang. Cassandra took out her phone, waved goodbye to the students outside the ssroom, and walked into the elevator before answering the phone. ¡°Hello?¡± It was Cyrus who called. ¡°Cassie,e to the Blossom Group now.¡± ¡°Okay.¡± ***** When Cassandra arrived at the Blossom Group, she saw not only Cyrus but also Timothy. She raised her eyebrows and asked softly, ¡°Why are you all here?¡± Timothy smiled, stood up, and walked towards her. ¡°Are you happy to see me?¡± After so many years, he finally returned home. Why was Cassandra unhappy at all? ¡°Why did youe back?¡± Cassandra ignored the man¡¯s words and continued to ask questions. ¡°As the CEO of Modern Beacon Synergy, I certainly want to find high¨Cquality partners around the world. Cyrus is the vice CEO, and he is also the CEO of Blossom Group. After his introduction, I think Blossom Group is a good partner. So, I¡¯m here to sign a contract with the Blossom Group today.¡± Timothy walked back to his chair and sat down, smugly spinning around for half a circle. Cassandra felt speechless. ¡°You two are talking about cooperation. Why did you call me here?¡± ¡°We haven¡¯t seen each oth¨¦r for so long. Don¡¯t you miss us?¡± Timothy sounded rascally. If he was ten years younger, he would be a good toy boy. What he did now¡­ was a little shameless. Cyrus chuckled and said to Cassandra gently, ¡°Don¡¯t listen to his nonsense.

And as the real boss, she was thest one to know about it. Timothy ignored her frown and said, ¡°We discussed it with you at the beginning of this year. It was you who let us make up our minds.¡± The headquarters of Modern Beacon Synergy must be a whole building. Therefore, when Cassandra asked them to take care of it, they bought the newest business building. After half a year of decoration and renovation, it was finallypleted. Tomorrow would be the official opening. People, who were originally working in Spaunia, stayed there. But thepany there became a branch. Some of them were transferred from all over the world and followed them to Therefore, there was no shortage of people.. What was missing now was whether the real boss could attend the ribbon¨Ccutting ceremony tomorrow. When Timothy asked this question, Cassandra rolled her eyes at him. ¡°Guess why I call the boss behind the scene?¡± Timothy didn¡¯t know how to answer her. Neither did Cyrus. ¡°However, I will attend tomorrow as a guest. So I can witness it with you,¡± Cassandra advised. Timothy curled his lips in dissatisfaction as if there was no other way. Cassandra wanted to keep a low profile. He seriously suspected that Cassandra didn¡¯t want to keep a low profile, but waszy. She didn¡¯t want to deal with socializing things, nor did she want to interfere in theplicated affairs of thepany. She just wanted to sit there and earn money. ||| 11:20 Sat, 16 Mar Chapter 312 She represented the nature of capital. ¡°Fine. As you said, if you don¡¯t show up tomorrow, I will immediately hold a press conference and say that you are the boss of Modern Beacon Synergy.

It was unbelievable. ¡°Yeah.¡± Cassandra nodded lightly and said nothing more. ¡°Who did you invite?¡± ¡°Every big shot in Drieso,¡± Timothy rolled his eyes at Cassandra and said, ¡°It¡¯s not that we can¡¯t afford it. With such strength, even if there are hundreds more rich people, we can afford them.¡± Cassandra said, ¡°It wasn¡¯t your money, was it? So he spent her money, happily. ¡°There¡¯s no need to divide your money and mine, right?¡± Timothy said. shamelessly. +4 ¡°ine, don¡¯t listen to his nonsense. He said that the money for the ceremony was from his private ount. It doesn¡¯t matter if he spends more. We must make Modern Beacon Synergy a hit in Drieso. We also started a branch office in Sloummont, and the future center will be moved to Clusia.¡± Neither he nor Timothy would have gone to Spaunia or met Cassandra if they hadn¡¯t been desperate.

His cold eyes were fixed on Cassandra, making it clear he had already judged her to be in the wrong. It baffled him that she would be pped without provocation at this event. Cassandra looked at Richard and sensed the discipline of a soldier. Perhaps because of Keh, she instinctively wanted to show Richard respect.

Or do you think your granddaughter is the best one in the whole world whom I don¡¯t deserve?¡± Keh¡¯s words greatly embarrassed Richard, making Richard¡¯s face very gloomy.

Why would the perpetrators always feel wronged? Didn¡¯t they realize that they were wrong? Even Richard had the same reaction. His respect had turned into impatience. Was that what a retired soldier should be? Richard looked at Keh with dissatisfaction and said, ¡°Don¡¯t go too far. I asked Emma to apologize as you requested.

The Houston family still doesn¡¯t realize its mistake. In that case, I won¡¯t stop. Keh¡¯s tone was cold. Cassandra smiled and thought, ¡®Keh really understands me.

Hearing Sampson¡¯s furious words, Emma felt a little embarrassed and flushed. She had never been scolded like that since childhood, so she suddenly felt aggrieved. Emma shouted, ¡°They bullied me. Can¡¯t I bully them? They are afraid of you and Grandpa, which has nothing to do with me. Why are you scolding me now?¡± Emma cried sadly. Richard didn¡¯t feel sorry for Emma at all this time. He thought she was really spoiled. Emma didn¡¯t expect that Sampson would be suspended for investigation now. Even if Sampson was proven to be innocent in the end, his career would still be affected. It would be very difficult for Sampson to get promoted for the next few years. But now, it turned out that Emma had bullied the weak by relying on Richard and Sampson¡¯s power.

But it has nothing to do with Sampson. I will take all the responsibility. Please let Sampson go. He has a bright future. His life can¡¯t be ruined because of his sister. I will discipline Emma well and let her learn to behave herself. Please forgive us!¡± Richard¡¯s tone was sad, full of remorse. But it was toote to regret it. For a soldier, such things were never allowed to happen in his family. The Houston. family not only didn¡¯t restrain Emma, but let her be more and more arrogant outside.

Pleasee with us.¡± Seeing that Cassandra remained silent, they said nervously, ¡°Don¡¯t worry. We will protect you and won¡¯t let you get hurt.

Mon, 18 Mar Chapter 323 Cassandra showed up on the rooftop, and Keh also appeared. The live stream. was still on. Cassandra walked forward and said coldly, ¡°I¡¯m here. What do you want to say?¡± Emma frantically gestured at Cassandra with a knife and began to use her, ¡°Cassandra, it¡¯s all your fault. You stole my freshman representative¡¯s ce. You took away my future boyfriend, and now you still don¡¯t let me go. You want to destroy the Houston family and ruin me. Because of you, I was pped by Grandpa twice, and my mother also beat me. My brother never yelled at me, but because of you, he yelled at me. It¡¯s all your fault!¡± Cassandra looked gloomy and even somewhat disappointed. Then she said, ¡°Emma, I was chosen as the freshman representative, which was decided by Mr. Wilson. I unscripted my speech because I have a photographic memory. I can remember the manuscript after reading it. It¡¯s not like what you thought. I didn¡¯t prepare it for a long time. As for your so¨Ccalled future boyfriend, we were together after my military training in college. Richard just mentioned him to your mother. How did he be your boyfriend? I can¡¯t see how you can be so unreasonable.¡± Cassandra looked around and stepped forward slightly, continuing, ¡°You did something wrong.

Do they not harbor a sense of injustice? How can you audaciously express your grievances here, disregarding the profound impact on others? To whom can these people voice their grievances? Merely possessing a distinguished grandfather and a lieutenant colonel brother does not justify disregarding the emotions of others or covering up all consequences. ¡°Your grandfather and brother were defending Clusia on the front line to protect the children and teenagers of their mothend. As their family, what were you doing? You were destroying the teenagers and their futures. The straight¨CA student in Grade 12 was forced to drop out of school a month before the SAT by you and became depressed.

Cassandra took advantage of this moment and rushed forward. Then she reached out her hand and took Emma down. Cassandra pped Emma in the face. ¡°If you really want to die, pay back all the debts you owe before that. Co kneel and apologize to those victims. Then go to kill yourself. Don¡¯t make trouble again. Otherwise, I will help you die,¡± said Cassandra. Cassandra did not p Emma to sober her up; rather, she did so out of annoyance.

At the same time, when Helen and Richard learned that Emma was about to jump off from the building, Richard suddenly fainted because of the simtion. Dave followed the ambnce to the hospital, so Helen could only go to the police station by herself to see Emma. Emma was in the observation room of the police station. After a long time, she finally calmed down. Then the police took her to the interrogation room for interrogation. Emma was still young and innocent. She didn¡¯t know much about the world and felt that she had a strong background, so she was irritated easily and told everything to the police in a few minutes. ¡°Don¡¯t write it down, or I will ask my brother to teach you a lesson!¡± Emma even threatened the officers with Sampson¡¯s identity. The police officer who interrogated Emma shook his head and wrote down every word she said, even recording it. He would report directly to his superiors. Everything would be important evidence for investigating Sampson. When Helen arrived, Emma was still threatening the police. Helen didn¡¯t take the interrogation seriously and just thought that Richard could handle this matter well. However, when she heard Emma mention Sampson, she instantly became flustered. Helen knew that Sampson couldn¡¯t be investigated again, which would ruin his career. Helen hurriedly walked forward, straightened Emma¡¯s body, and pped her in the face. Then Helen scolded sharply, ¡°What are you talking about? Your brother never cares about your shit. How can you ruin his reputation outside!¡± Emma was pped again.

Why did you me everything on me?¡± Emma was almost out of her mind, and Helen was pissed off. The police called a psychologist. They thought that Emma might be psychologically distorted. In Zosteylor, Theodore and Vincent were conspiring in the room. Harper was absent as he required rest. Detoxing in the middle stage had depleted a significant amount of his energy. ¡°How are things going with Cassie?¡± Theodore asked. Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. On Theodore¡¯sputer screen, there were trending topics about Cassandra and Emma. There were many web pages, which indicated that Theodore was really concerned about Cassandra. However, Cassandra didn¡¯t need such concern at all. Vincent replied, ¡°I¡¯ve handled it. I have contacted all the suppliers and partners of the Houston family. They no longer cooperate with the Houston family. Mostpanies have terminated their contracts overnight. It is estimated that the Houston family will dere bankruptcy in less than two days.¡± Vincent was telling the truth. At this time, hisputer showed the stock market situation and the shares of the Houston family. He wanted to make the Houston family heavily in debt and let them know that Cassandra had a strong backer. Theodore said, ¡°Well, that¡¯s good. All those who bully Cassie must be punished.¡± When Theodore said so, he was not confident at all. He just knew that Cassandra was the boss of Modern Beacon Synergy. Although no one had seen the boss before, there were countless legends about her. What never changed was that she started from scratch and worked hard. Together with Timothy and Cyrus, she founded Modern Beacon Synergy which was a business empire. Chapter 321 Theodore also admired such a person. But he never expected that the person was Cassandra. Thinking of this, Theodore fevery unhappy. He could imagine how hard it was for Cassandra to climb up thedder when she had nothing. No wonder she didn¡¯t want her family. The so¨Ccalled family would only stand in her way. Theodore envied Keh and Jeremiah. Even though they were not biologically rted to Cassandra, they were more lucky than the Yates family because Cassandra treated them well. ¡°Theodore, when can we be reunited with Cassie?¡± Vincent was very fond of Cassandra, so he was eager to see her again. Nevertheless, Cassandra didn¡¯t give them any opportunity. Vincent stated, ¡°If she can ept Dad and Mom, I am willing to break up with them.¡± Vincent always felt that it was because of the identity of him and Theodore that hindered Cassandra from epting them. It was because Cassandra didn¡¯t like them that she didn¡¯t want to go home. As long as Cassandra was willing toe back, Vincent could deal with the adoption immediately. He was not a child now and could take care of himself. Even if there were no procedures for adoption, he would still take care of his parents. Vincent just hoped that Cassandra could go home soon. .

Juset University showed its firm attitude in this matter. The decision was a great joy to everyone.

As a result, Emma had been bullying many students for numerous years during her time in high school. Hence, the decision was made to revoke Emma¡¯s diploma and nullify all her student status details. After Emma¡¯s interrogation, she not only lost her identity as a college student but also became a junior high school graduate. When Richard awoke, he appeared markedly older. Helplessly, he relinquished his dignity and approached Keh¡¯s superior, John Frey, to plead for assistance. ¡°Mr. Frey, I can only talk to you about this,¡± Richard called John first. After Richard woke up from the hospital, he hurried to the military residentialpound and found John. Richard didn¡¯t care if he would lose his dignity. The most important thing was that his two grandchildren could not be destroyed like this. John said, ¡°Mr. Houston, it¡¯s not that we don¡¯t want to help you with this matter, but we have no way out. The superior attaches great importance to this matter and its impact is very bad.¡± John looked serious. He had always been an amiable person, but this time when he saw Richard, he couldn¡¯t smile. John continued, ¡°Our soldiers are fighting at the front, while our families are relying on the power of the soldiers and showing off their strength. Such evil acts. will never be encouraged and must be strictly punished. It¡¯s useless for you toe to me. I won¡¯t be responsible for this matter. The superiors will personally investigate it.

If even John couldn¡¯t do anything about it, who else ould Richard go to? John said, ¡°Who is behind this? What¡¯s the reason for this? If you want the superior to let it go, you need to know who you have offended.¡± John deliberately lowered his voice and continued, ¡°I heard that Ms. Yates¡® identity is not as simple as what you see. This time, you have not only offended her but also may fall into the abyss. and ruin your family.¡± John couldn¡¯t help this matter. Judging from what had happened, Cassandra shouldn¡¯t be underestimated. Moreover, not only Keh but also the National Security Bureau had intervened if the information was correct, which made this matter moreplicated. The Houston family hade to an end this time. Richard bent his back with despair on his face. He didn¡¯t know what to do now. Richard wondered, [Who is Cassandra? What¡¯s behind her besides Zelinski Group and Modern Beacon Synergy? Why is she so difficult to deal with? Even John can¡¯t do anything about her.] John continued, ¡°Besides, it was the superior who ordered Sampson to be suspended from duty this time. It didn¡¯t go through me or Keh. Think about it.¡± John¡¯s words were simple, so Richard understood his meaning. After Richard left, John¡¯s wife, Selena Frey, came out and asked, ¡°What happened to the Houston family?¡± ¡°The kid Keh is with is not simple,¡± said John. The individual eligible for National Security Bureau protection could not simply serve as the boss of Modern Beacon Synergy, apany of little significance to the National Security Bureau. ¡°Then the Houston family¡­¡± Selena was curious. John said, ¡°The business of the Houston family and that girl should be ruined. But O Mon, 18 Mar Chapter 325 Keh cherishes Sampson¡¯s talent and won¡¯t leave him alone. Otherwise, Keh would not directly order Sampson to carry out a mission in Ounca.¡± However, Sampson listened to Richard and waited in the army. Instead of the mission being canceled, Sampson found himself suspended from duty. If Sampson had flown to Ounca as soon as he received the mission, his superiors wouldn¡¯t have called him back. Then he could easily avoid this disaster. Keh just wanted Sampson to be punished. How could Sampson lead the army in the future if he couldn¡¯t even lead his sister? As a result, Sampson would face hardships in Ounca at most. It was possible that he could be promoted to the rank of colonel within a few years. Furthermore, if Sampson were to achieve a second¨Css meritorious service when the right time came, his promotion to colonel could be immediate. Selena nodded and said, ¡°It¡¯s time to teach the girl of the Houston family a lesson. It¡¯s good that the Houston family lost their property since they only knew how to harm others.¡± John agreed with Selena and said, ¡°You¡¯re right, honey. I think so too.¡± Selena said, ¡°You should make an appointment with Keh and ask him to bring his girlfriend over. We should meet her. I want to see this big shot.¡± Selena was curious about Cassandra, who seemed to be a legend. Originally, Selena and John didn¡¯t know who the girl Keh liked was. However, after the video of the Modern Beacon Synergy party spread in the circle, they saw Cassandra clearly and knew that Keh had not deceived them. ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll call him,¡± John said. John was also curious about who the girl was and how she could be so charming. When Keh got the call, he happened to be with Cassandra. He put down his phone and asked softly, ¡°My leader and the wives of several other leaders in the military residentialpound would like to see you this weekend.

Seeing that Keh had taken out his phone and was about to make a call, Cassandra hurriedly stopped him and said, ¡°It¡¯s okay. It doesn¡¯t matter. I used to stay up for more than two days.

He thought that Cassandra was really lovely. Yannick drove the car for Keh and Cassandra. There were so many things that Keh couldn¡¯t carry alone, so he needed Yannick to help him. Since andra needed a rest, Keh could be her pillow. All Yannick had to do was drive the car 10:44 Mon, 18 Mar Chapter 326 and carry the gifts for them. After two hours of driving, they finally arrived at the military residentialpound. Keh motioned Yannick to get out of the car first and exin what was going on. When John heard that Cassandra had been doing a medical experiment all night, he immediately felt fonder of her. However, when Yannick said that Cassandra had fallen asleep in the car, he was a little worried. John said to Selena, ¡°Go and have a look at the car. The kid must be tired. You can ask Keh to take her back to the bedroom so that she can sleep morefortably. When she wakes up, it will be time for lunch.¡± Selena smiled and walked out of the room. When she was about to knock on Keh¡¯s car window, someone rolled down the window. Selena happened to look into the eyes of a beautiful girl. However, the girl seemed to be dazed. Selena guessed this should be Keh¡¯s girlfriend. She looked very much like what Selena had seen in the video, and her face was perfectly charming. Keh saw Selena and asked, ¡°Mrs. Frey, why are you here?¡± Selena said, ¡°John heard Yannick¡¯s report and asked me toe down. You can take Ms. Yates back to our room to sleep. I didn¡¯t expect that Ms. Yates would have woken up.¡± Hearing this, Cassandra blushed awkwardly. ¡°Mrs. Frey, I¡¯m sorry,¡± Cassandra hurriedly apologized.

Of course, you should have a good rest.¡± Selena liked Cassandra. Then she said, ¡°Come on, let¡¯s go inside.¡± Cassandra looked a little unnatural.

Selena took Cassandra¡¯s hand with enthusiasm and talked to her kindly. In less than 15 minutes, a dozen people arrived at John¡¯s house, all of whom were the wives of the commanding officers in the army. Somemanding officers who had nothing to do today also came. What surprised Cassandra most was that the director of National Security Bureau was also present. Daniel saw Cassandra and said gently, ¡°Cassie, why didn¡¯t you tell me before you came here?¡± Cassandra was a little surprised and said, ¡°Director Walker, so you live in here, but you¡­¡± Daniel said, ¡°I¡¯ve always had a military rank.

I think in Keh¡¯s heart, only you are suitable to wear it, so it is yours.¡± ¡°Mrs. Frey, thank you,¡± Keh said seriously. Then Selena took out another box from her pocket and said, ¡°This is the gift I prepared for you. It¡¯s a ne that matches this bracelet. As your John said, we have treated Keh as our son for so many years. Naturally, we want to do more for him. You should have what my daughter¨Cinw has.¡± When Selena¡¯s son came back with his wife for the first time, Selena and John had prepared the same things as this time. John gave a bank card, and Selena gave a ne. Now Keh had brought back his girlfriend, so Selena and John would do the same thing. ¡°Thank you, Mrs. Frey.¡± Cassandra took the gift with both hands, and her heart wast full of distress. She didn¡¯t know why she felt a little depressed. ¡°Don¡¯t call me Mrs. Frey. Just call us John and Selena. We¡¯re family,¡± Selena looked at John and said to Keh and Cassandra with a smile. Cassandra nodded obediently and said, ¡°Okay, Selena.¡± ? O §Þ§à§Ý. 18 §Þ§Ñ§Ô Chapter 327 After John and Selena finished giving gifts, it was the turn of other officers and their wives. Everyone had prepared a bank card of one million and one dors, including Daniel. However, he didn¡¯t want to give it to Cassandra. 69% Daniel held the bank card and felt a little sad. Then he said to Keh, ¡°Although I thought there was something between you when in Zosteylor, I didn¡¯t expect that you would steal my trump card and bring her to us. It hurts me to give her this card. I want my trump card¡­¡± The other peopleughed at Daniel. Keh grabbed the bank card from Daniel¡¯s hand and stuffed it into Cassandra¡¯s arms. He signaled Cassandra with his eyes. ¡°Cassie, take it.¡± Keh smiled slightly and said happily, ¡°Thank you, Mr. Walker.¡± Daniel was rendered speechless. He thought Keh was really annoying. Daniel said, ¡°All right. You have to treat Cassandra nicely in the future. If you dare to upset her, I won¡¯t let you go, and I¡¯ll use all my power in the National Security Bureau to kill you.¡± Daniel knew that Cassandra had lived a hard life in the past. When he knew that Emery was Cassandra, he learned about her story on the Inte, so he felt sorry. for her. Now Cassandra was with Keh, and Daniel wouldn¡¯t allow her to live unhappily. again. No one could make Cassandra sad again. Whoever dared to bully Emery of the National Security Bureau must think twice.

Daniel snorted and said coldly, ¡°What a sweet tongue!¡± Well, Emery had been with Keh. Fortunately, Emery didn¡¯t say that she would join the Falcon Special Operations Force, which provided Daniel with a little relief. Today, the Frey residence was quite lively. Several old friends of the Frey family had gathered together. John was very happy and took out his treasured wine to treat everyone. Before the lunch started, his son, Eddie Frey, came back. Eddie and his wife, holding gifts in their hands, first greeted their parents and several senior leaders before they finally looked at Keh and Cassandra. Eddie said to Keh, ¡°Congrattions. You finally have someone.¡± Keh rolled his eyes. He didn¡¯t want to answer, because he always felt that what Eddies said was not a ttery. Did Eddie mean that Keh was old? Eddie served as a colonel and captain in both the Air Force and the Marine Corps. He spent his time working on ships throughout the year, traveling des Tvers and seas, and engaging in battles along the country¡¯s winding waterways, solidifying his status as an esteemed member of both the Air Force and the Marine Corps. Therefore, Eddie was quite excellent. He was John¡¯s proud. His wife was Lydia Frey, an excellent perfumer. Lydia looked at Cassandra enthusiastically and was about to give Cassandra the gift in her hand. When Lydia saw Cassandra¡¯s face, her hands trembled in surprise, and the gift fell to the ground. With a bang, Lydia came back to her senses and said apologetically, ¡°I¡¯m sorry. I was distracted.¡± She hurriedly bent down to pick up the gift box. Eddie asked softly, ¡°What¡¯s wrong with you?

She handed over the gift with both hands and said, ¡°This is for you. Please take a moment to see if it suits your taste. If not, I¡¯d be happy to make an exchange.¡± Cassandra understood that Lydia had recognized her. When Cassandra met Lydia, she was not very famous in the field of perfume. Lydia could only support herself at that time. After Lydia participated in thepetition, she had been working for Cassandra. Until now, Lydia had been in charge of Magnolia Studio. Cassandra nodded her head gently at Lydia and said softly, ¡°I like your gift. Thank you.¡± There was nothing wrong with Cassandra¡¯s words, but Keh found something. wrong. He wondered if Cassandra and Lydia knew each other, Keh thought, ¡®Lydia seems to be a perfumer¡® Eddie also sent a gift to Cassandra. Telling from the box, everyone could see that it was not cheap. Eddie said to Keh after giving the gift to Cassandra, ¡°You must be nice to her in the future. We are all her backers. If you upset her, I will punish you as your elder brother.¡± Eddie and Keh had been arguing about who was older since they knew each other. Logically speaking, Eddie was three days older than Keh. However, Keh always said that status should be determined by strength, so Eddie always. lost to Keh. This time, Eddie finally dered that he was Keh¡¯s elder brother. Keh rolled his eyes.

As soon as Cassandra went out of the house, she received a message from Lydia: [Boss, what¡¯s going on? You didn¡¯t go back to thepany because you were in a rtionship!] Lydia was still shocked. She couldn¡¯t ept that Keh had been with her boss! Lydia wondered if she was hallucinating, or if Cassandra was out of her mind. After Cassandra received the message, she chuckled gently and couldn¡¯t help teasing Keh, ¡°What should you do? Someone thinks that we¡¯re not suitable for each other.¡°¨C Keh suddenly stepped on the brake, and the car stopped suddenly. Cassandra leaned forward because of inertia and bounced back. She asked, ¡°Why did you stop?¡± Keh looked at Cassandra seriously and said, ¡°Who is it? Who thinks we are not suitable?¡± Cassandra said, ¡°Nothing. Someone just sent me a message asking why I¡¯m in a rtionship with you.¡± Hearing this, Keh suddenly became sullen. She gritted her teeth and said, ¡°It¡¯s Eddie¡¯s wife, right?¡± Cassandra was stunned and asked in surprise, ¡°How do you know?¡± ¡°I knew that you knew each other as soon as I heard your conversation today, but I don¡¯t know how you got to know each other,¡± Keh answered honestly and restarted the car. Keh thought he must warn Eddie to discipline his wife. Cassandra was surprised by Keh¡¯s carefulness.

Cassandra knew ||| 0 69% Chapter 328 Lydia one year earlier than Eddie did. Keh was a little surprised. He didn¡¯t expect Cassandra and Lydia to know each other so early.

Moreover, at that time, I was too young and there was no inappropriate way to introduce myself, so I did note back. Keh nodded, but he didn¡¯t ask how and why Cassandra and Lydia met. Since Cassandra did not tell Keh, he wouldn¡¯t ask about it so as to give each other. some space. Maybe in the near future, Cassandra would surprise Keh. In Eddie¡¯s room at the Frey residence, when Eddie found that Lydia had been frowning since she went back to the room, he couldn¡¯t help asking, ¡°What¡¯s wrong with you today? Why are you a little upset?¡± ¡°I¡­¡± Lydia didn¡¯t know how to put it. She looked at Eddie and asked, ¡°Is Keh reliable in his rtionship?¡± Eddie was stunned. He thought that Lydia must be worried that Keh might not treat Cassandra well enough, so he said seriously, ¡°Keh is a soldier. He¡¯s absolutely loyal to the person he loves. You don¡¯t have to worry about that.¡± Lydia remained silent. How could she not worry? If Lydia recalled correctly, Cassandra was not even 19 years old, while Keh was about 27. Undoubtedly, there was a noticeable age gap between the two. ¡°Why did you ask that?¡± Eddie asked. Lydia looked at Eddie and said helplessly, ¡°You may not believe me. Cassandra is my boss.

É« SEND GIFT ||| O 0 COMMENT A Chapter 329 Chapter 329 Chapter 329 After Cassandra returned from the military residentialpound, the Houston family dered bankruptcy. The property of the Houston family was acquired by Keh. Dave and Richard tried their best to fill up all the deficit. They only had one apartment left in the end. It was the only ce for them to settle down in the future. Since Emma was detained in the police station on the day she pretended to jump off the building, she hadn¡¯t been released yet. What she had done was proved to be true after the evidence was exposed, and her behavior of threatening the police in the police station was also convicted. Emma was sentenced to three years and six months in prison. When Helen knew the news, she fainted directly. When she woke up, she couldn¡¯t do anything. The only thing thatforted the Houston family was that Sampson wasn''t affected. The investigation team had checked all his phone records and chat records, but they didn¡¯t find evidence that Sampson had let his sister use his power to bully others. Sampson himself did not know about it. After the investigation team thoroughly reviewed all the evidence, they ultimately confirmed Sampson¡¯s innocence. Keh should be thanked for all this. He wanted to punish Sampson because Emma had bullied Cassandra, and Sampson was a vulnerable point for the Houston family. However, Keh did not anticipate Sampson¡¯s naivet¨¦ in trusting Richard for assistance. Consequently, Sampson was suspended from duty for investigation. Despite Keh¡¯s intervention, reinstating Sampson¡¯s position proved to be aplex process. He could only return to his role once his superior thoroughly reviewed and verified all the evidence. As a result, Sampson had to leave and return home for the time being. Sampson hadn''t returned home for more than a year, but when he came back again, he found that everything had changed. The family¡¯s vi had gone, and now the Houston family lived in an apartment. Their property was gone, and even Emma was put in prison. Although Sampson was troubled by Emma, she was his sister. He could only find a way to let her not suffer in prison. i [e) 10152 Tue, 19 Mar Chapter 329 Sampson asked in disbelief, ¡°Grandpa, Dad, what happened at home?¡± Dave sighed, and he seemed to have suddenly be much older. Dave told Sampson all the things that had happened during this period of time, including Keh¡¯s suppression of the Houston family. +6 The more Sampson listened, the more he frowned. ¡°No way!

If it weren''t for Keh, Sampson would have been in a worse situation. Richard was stunned and stared at Sampson with wide eyes. It seemed that Richard was seriously thinking whether what Sampson said was true or not. Richard asked in surprise, ¡°Is what you said true?¡± ¡°Absolutely,¡± said Sampson. Hearing this, Richard covered his face in pain. He thought, ¡°What have | done? We deserve it!¡± mgaeeaE aE Cassandra got the news from Omar who said that the detoxification came to thest stage and everything went well at present. Cassandra made a video call to Omar and asked coldly, ¡°Do you need my help?¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t pay much attention to her studies now, so she could go to the ss if she wanted and give a lecture to students in the Physics Department. Omar said, ¡°You''d better note here. The whole family doesn¡¯t harbor good intentions. | don¡¯t know what might happen if you come!¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t know what to say for a moment because she knew what Omar said was right. But it was kind of weird when he said that. 1052 Tue, 19 Mar Chapter 329 Cassandra inquired, ¡°I heard that you prescribed medication for Mr. Yates that led to him having diarrhea. Is that true?¡± ¡°Did Hugo tell you that? Humph, | knew it was him whoined to you.¡± Omar sneered at the camera and continued, ¡°What¡¯s wrong? They treated you so badly before. Now | want to take revenge on them. Besides, | was not wrong. His forehead was dark and he didn¡¯t sleep well. He looks great now, which proves that what | said works.¡± Cassandra remained silent. Darren had diarrhea these days, so his face turned. extremely pale. Cassandra said, ¡°You shouldn¡¯t go too far. What if hees to me and makes trouble in the future? | don¡¯t want them toe after me.¡± Omar thought what Cassandra said was reasonable and immediately said, ¡°Okay, I''ll change the medicine.¡± Omar could cure Darren''s diarrhea. Anyway, he could prescribe other medicine to Darren. Omar was a doctor, so he wouldn¡¯t kill Darren anyway. However, if Omar didn¡¯t teach Darren a lesson, he couldn¡¯t revenge for Cassandra. Cassandra pondered, ¡°I suppose Omar won''t let it go. As long as he doesn¡¯t harm Darren, | suppose anything else is fair game.¡± Their video call in the room was just heard by Darren. He had been confused. While his sleep had improved at night, aside from the initial night when he suffered from diarrhea, he found himself experiencing diarrhea during the day as well, leading to several embarrassing incidents. Unable to tolerate it any longer, he resolved to ask Omar about the situation. To his surprise, Darren overheard the conversation between Omar and Cassandra. Darren thought, ¡°Then all this is what | deserve, so | should bear it. Darren could ept anything for Cassandra. ¡°Dad...¡± Theodore looked at Darren distressedly. How could he stand it? ¡°I''m fine. | deserve it,¡± Darren said with a wry smile.

When Cassandra and Omar hung up the video call, Cassandra heard someone. knocking on the door outside. She opened the door. It was a delivery man who asked, ¡°Hello, are you Ms. Cassandra Yates?¡± ¡°Yes, | am,¡± Cassandra answered. The delivery man said, ¡°There is a package for you. Please sign for it.¡± Then he handed the package to Cassandra. She was about to reach out and take it, but she felt something wrong. Cassandra inquired, ¡°The parcels in this neighborhood are consistently ced in the doorkeeper¡¯s delivery box and never actually delivered. Who exactly are you? And why are you pretending to be a delivery man?¡± Cassandra withdrew her hands.. ¡°Ms. Yates, I''m really a delivery man. Look at my uniform.

Please have some pity on me. | have to support my family. If | lost half of my sry, we couldn¡¯t live through this month!¡± Cassandra epted the parcel and the delivery man left quickly. Then the delivery man heard a bang. Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. Chapter 330 Chapter 330 Chapter 330 Cassandra sensed that something was wrong with the parcel and immediately threw it out. Unexpectedly, it exploded in mid-air. Cassandra reacted quickly in a panic and threw herself into the door, so she didn¡¯t get hurt. When Cassandra got up again, she found a hole sted through her vi, and the delivery man had vanished. She didn¡¯t have time to read the delivery information on the box. Who the hell was it? Who wanted to kill Cassandra? Benjamin¡¯s family didn¡¯t have enough money to buy a bomb at all. Besides, it was not something that Benjamin¡¯s sons would do.¡± Could it be the Houston family? They could afford a bomb, but Keh said Sampson was a good man. Cassandra supposed that Sampson wouldn¡¯t allow such a thing to happen. Cassandra entered the house calmly and went straight upstairs to investigate. She had control of all the surveince cameras on the path of the deliveryman. There was no way for him to destroy the evidence. Finally, Cassandra saw a woman who handed the parcel to the deliveryman. It turned out that the man was really a delivery man. Then why did he run so fast as soon as he handed the parcel to Cassandra? Who was that woman? Cassandra stared at the woman again, only to find that she had disappeared from the video. ¡°Bang!¡± There was a sound of the door opening downstairs. Someone should have pushed the door open vigorously. ¡°Cassie!¡± ¡°ine!¡± ¡°Cassie!¡± 10:53 Tue, 19 Mar N Chapter 330 Telling from the voices, Cassandra knew they were Keh and Jeremiah, but she felt that Timothy and Cyrus were also there. When she opened the door, she saw the worried faces of four people. Timothy and Cyrus even sweated on their foreheads. Keh immediately held Cassandra in his arms and asked gently, ¡°Are you okay? Yannick said there was something wrong with the surveince video at home. Then he saw what happened here. Why didn¡¯t you call me?¡±Material ? of N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Yeah, ine, are you okay? You scared me to death. Fortunately, | check the surveince video at the door every day. There was an explosion at the door. Only you can be so calm.¡± Originally, Yannick was having a meeting with Timothy and the others in Modern Beacon Synergy. When he got bored and turned on the surveince video, he saw something abnormal. He was dumbfounded when he saw the explosion. The point was that Cassandra could be so calm after the explosion. She just turned around and went back to her house. At this time, Cassandra was held tightly in Keh¡¯s arms. She felt a little ufortable and almost couldn''t breathe. She pushed Keh, and he let go of her. She broke free from Keh¡¯s embrace and said, ¡°I¡¯m fine. | didn¡¯t get hurt. | came into the house to find out who wanted to kill me.¡± Keh frowned and asked, ¡°Have you found it?¡± How dare someone send a bomb to Cassandra in the daytime? Instead of threatening Cassandra, the person just wanted to kill her. Cassandra shook her head and said, ¡°It was indeed a deliveryman who delivered me the bomb. A woman sent the parcel to the express station. ording to the surveince video, it seemed that she had given some money to the deliveryman, so he came to my door. But | didn¡¯t see that woman¡¯s face.¡± Even if the woman walked past the surveince of other sections, she covered herself well with a mask, sses, and a hat. So, Cassandra couldn''t tell who it was. Jeremiah entered Cassandra¡¯s room sideways, and the surveince video was ying on theputer. They looked at the video from beginning to end, but they didn¡¯t find anything. So 10153 Tue, 19 Mar H Chapter 330 they could only put it aside for the time being. 625 ¡°Jeremiah, copy these surveince videos and take them back. You take over this matter, Keh said, and it had be a matter of business. ¡°Yes, sir!¡± Jeremiah raised his volume and replied gravely. ¡°This matter has affected public order. Let the Falcon Special Operations Force deal with it.¡± Keh was terrified when he remembered the scene on the video. The surveince of his vi could only capture a small part of Cassandra¡¯s house. So the real situation was more dangerous. Cassandra nodded and said, ¡°If you have any news, you must tell me as soon as possible. | want to know who wants my life.¡± In this life, Cassandra would not be as stupid as in her previous life. She knew that her life was the most important thing. ¡°We''ll definitely tell you.¡± ¡°Cassie, it¡¯s not safe here. Would you like to stay with us?¡± Timothy advised. Anyway, they had lived together. When they lived in the rental house, Timothy and Cyrus even shared a bed. Now Cassandra¡¯s ce was obviously unsafe, and her address had been exposed. So Timothy thought she should change her ce in time, otherwise, she would be in danger. Before Cassandra could speak, Keh said first, ¡°I will arrange a ce for Cassie to live. Mr. Gomez, you don¡¯t have to worry about it.¡± Timothy snorted lightly, with a trace of disdain in his eyes. ¡°Humph, I¡¯ve been worried about Cassie for so many years. Mr. Zelinski, how did you take care of little Cassie? How could you let your enemy send the bomb here?¡± Cassandra was shocked. Then she said angrily, ¡°It was against me, not against him. If you and Cyrus aren¡¯t. busy, why don¡¯t you help us find the real culprit? Go ask that deliveryman if he had. seen who delivered the parcel to him clearly.¡± It was a safety hazard and must be removed as soon as possible. ¡°Fine, leave this to me and Cyrus. If someone dares to hurt you, I''ll make him regret it!¡± Timothy said confidently. Chapter 330 Suddenly, another person came upstairs. It was Kayden. His face was full of worries. Seeing that Cassandra was fine, he felt relieved and said awkwardly, ¡°Yannick said there was an explosion here, so | wanted toe over and see if there is anything | can help.¡± The content is on NovelDrama.Org! Read thetest chapter there! Cassandra didn¡¯t show much emotion on her face. ¡°Thank you, I¡¯m fine,¡± she said. Kayden didn¡¯t know what he should do now.

Who is it?¡± Cassandra said, ¡°No, we¡¯re still looking into it.¡± ¡°Then leave this matter to the Falcon Special Operations Force. We can deal with such a dangerous incident very quickly.¡± Kayden volunteered to investigate this matter. Since Cassandra didn''t want toe back to the Yates family, Kayden wouldn''t mention it again. But today her life was threatened, and he couldn''t just stand by and do nothing. The content is on NovelDrama.Org! Read thetest chapter there! Cassandra and Jeremiah didn¡¯t say anything. Kayden looked at Keh and thought he should agree. After all, Cassandra was Keh¡¯s girlfriend. Jeremiah said, ¡°Kayden, Commander Zelinski has asked me to copy the video for investigation.¡± Jeremiah thought, ¡®They really know each other so well. Kayden was a little embarrassed, but he felt relieved. Springmount Townhouse was exposed and Cassandra almost died here, so Keh decided to let Cassandra live in his private vi. Jeremiah was shocked. He shouted, ¡°I can¡¯t believe you took advantage of this opportunity to let ine live with you! You bastard!¡± Jeremiah thought, ¡®ine is only 18 years old. How could Keh be such a monster?¡± The content is on NovelDrama.Org! Read thetest chapter there! Keh rolled his eyes, There were many rooms and servants in the vi. Chapter 331 Chapter 331 Chapter 331 Keh paid no heed to the mor of those people. He helped Cassandra pack up her things and drove straight back to Pinehart Mansion. This was the first time Cassandra had visited, aside from when she came to help treat Kayden. The name of the mansion, Pinehart Mansion, again brought about some inexplicable emotions. She wondered, ¡®Who was this mansion built to memorize?¡¯ She didn¡¯t ask but followed Keh into the central vi, where the butler and the maids were already waiting. Keh handed her luggage to a maid nearby, then took Cassandra¡¯s hand and introduced her to the butler, ¡°She¡¯s Cassandra Yates, my girlfriend, and the future hostess of the Pinehart Mansion. During this period, she will be staying here. Her orders are my orders. Is that clear?¡± Everyone responded, ¡°Yes.¡± Yet, Cassandra still noticed the strange nces, making her ufortable. Keh pointed to the middle-aged man standing in front and said, ¡°He is the steward of Pinehart Mansion, William Ellison. You can call him William.¡± Then he pointed at the middle-aged woman beside him and said, ¡°This is Susan Zorn, who¡¯s responsible for daily life. If you need anything, just let her know.¡± Susan enthusiastically stepped forward eagerly, smiling. ¡°Ms. Yates, feel free to give me any orders. I¡¯m always at your service.¡± William also said, ¡°Ms. Yates, you cane to me if you have any questions.¡± They all knew that Pinehart Mansion was built to memorize a girl named Cassandra. For so many years, even Harriet had never got a chance to enter this mansion, let alone other women. The maids were always kept busy with other tasks. They didn¡¯t tend to Keh¡¯s everyday needs because they were being groomed for a more important job-to wait on thedy of the house who''d one day arrive. Now, she was finally here!N?velDrama.Org (C) content. Cassandra nodded, considering it as a greeting, her tone somewhat distant yet. pleasant, ¡°William, Susan, please don¡¯t be so polite. If | need anything, | will ask 1053 Tue, 19 Mar Chapter 331 you.¡± 62 In fact, she was easy to please. As long as the room was clean, she had three meals a day, and she wasn¡¯t disturbed, there would be no problems. Keh said to her gently, ¡°Let me show you your room.¡± As the maids dispersed, Susan curiously nced over to find her master leading the woman to a special room. That room had existed since the beginning of Pinehart Mansion, seemingly nned ahead on the blueprint, not addedter when the mansion was constructed. It could be imagined how long Keh had thought about the girl named Cassandra as he had selected the decoration and furnishings of that room in person, which changed every year. Many people came to and lived in Pinehart. Mansion, but that room was like a restricted area where no one was allowed to live. Except for Yana, who was in charge of cleaning, no one else could enter without Keh¡¯s permission. As Susan had guessed, Keh couldn''t wait to take her into that room. Seeing the door open, Yana felt a pang of unease and displeasure. Cassandra looked at the room before her. Well, it felt very girly. The walls of the room were a blue-pink color, and it was quite large, twice the size of the main bedroom in Springmount Townhouse. In the middle, there was an elegant canopy bed, and there was even a dressing table that could only be owned by a royal princess. Cassandra was pleasantly surprised but also somewhat sad. She wondered, ¡®Who was this room prepared for by him?¡± Seeing that she was not that happy, Keh asked curiously, ¡°Cassandra, don¡¯t you like it?¡± Cassandra neither nodded nor shook her head, just asking, ¡°Who is this room. prepared for? Is it not suitable for me to stay?¡± Keh was momentarily stunned and thenughed. He thought happily, ¡®Was she jealous? Did she think this room was prepared for someone else? That was really a cute misunderstanding. ¡®No wonder her expression had been strange since entering Pinehart Mansion. [e) 10.53 Tue, 19 Mar NG Chapter 331 ¡®Now it¡¯s all clear. He said with some pleasure and ease, ¡°Cassandra, there was, is, and will be no one else. | have prepared this room for you from the beginning for so many years. Only the maid cleaned it twice a day, and no one else has ever entered.¡± ¡°Except for the maids selected, no other women with ulterior motives have ever lived in Pinehart Mansion. Cassandra, please don¡¯t misunderstand.¡± With that said Cassandra felt a bit embarrassed and lowered her head. She hadn¡¯t expected to make such a big joke. ¡°| didn¡¯t misunderstand...¡± Her defense sounded feeble. Keh chuckled softly, saying, ¡°Alright, my Cassandra didn¡¯t misunderstand me.

They also stationed people where the suspect disappeared from the camera. Springmount Townhouse received another parcel, and this time, it was another bomb. Presumably, since the first attempt to kill Cassandra failed, they were attempting a second time using a different courier.

But she didn¡¯t expect that the humiliation she suffered now was even worse than what she had faced in theboratory. Since she entered the room, she had been kneeling like a dog, groveling at his feet, supposedly atoning for her mother¡¯s sins. But she thought angrily, ¡®What did my mother¡¯s sins have to do with me?¡± Her life was worse than hell now. She had to report to Zack on her knees and lie Chapter 332 still while two disgusting doctors did their experiments on her.

The only one who had a deep grudge against her at Fallvale Mansion was Yulissa. There couldn¡¯t be anyone else. However, Cassandra was curious why Yulissa could escape from Zack¡¯s clutches and was still living in the main mansion. ¡°Check Zack James''s recent business dealings or any suspicious activities,¡± Cassandra said to Jeremiah. ¡°Okay, I''ll check it now.¡± ¡°We can¡¯t get into Fallvale Mansion since it¡¯s not essible for outsiders.

This matter could be handed over to the criminal investigation department, which would use search and arrest warrants to take Yulissa to the police station. There was no more legitimate move than that. As long as she was in prison, she would nevere out alive for the rest of her life. Cassandra smiled and said, ¡°Since we have evidence, why not call the police?¡± She thought, ¡°Yulissa, you had lingered on at the Fallvale Mansion for too long. It¡¯s time to pay for what happened before.

Secing the police, Yulissa was so scared that she could scarcely stand. ¡°Yulissa Yates, you are suspected of wilful murder and illegal use of firearms.

You''ve got the wrong person! | didn¡¯t do it! | didn¡¯t kill anyone!¡± Yulissa shouted in despair. Chapter 333 Chapter 333 Chapter 333 Zack frowned tightly, and his face was very gloomy. He cursed inwardly, ¡°That fool could not aplish anything! Who would expect that she could give herself away so easily, even leading the police to our doorstep?¡± ¡°Detective Inspector, this person has nothing to do with the James family. If you want to interrogate her, feel free to take her away. This isn¡¯t her home; | merely offered her shelter out of goodwill,¡± Zack said coldly. Yulissa¡¯s face paled as she was really shocked. She roared inwardly, ¡®Was he really abandoning me like this? ¡°When | was useful, he let me out to get close to Keh or forced me to experiment. Now that I¡¯m a liability, he¡¯s handing her over just like that?¡± ¡°Sorry, Mr. James, but we''ll need to search her room,¡± an officer stated firmly. Hard evidence must be found. Yulissa went frantic, struggling against the police¡¯s restraint. She yelled inwardly, ¡°They must not search my room! They must not! ¡®| haven''t finished off Cassandra yet, and those explosives! ¡®| have put so much effort into making homemade bombs, each one more powerful than thest.

There was definitely something in her room. He held up the search warrant to Zack. ¡°Mr. James, | hope you won''t obstruct justice.¡± ¡°Of course not. The maid will guide you to Yulissa¡¯s room,¡± Zack replied indifferently. He said no more and instead took a seat on the sofa, starting to fiddle with hist prayer beads again, paying no heed to the commotion.

They confiscated everything along with the evidence. Yulissa continued to deny everything, screaming that she was innocent. Back at the police station, Cassandra was brought in for identification. Seeing Yulissa¡¯s frenzied state, Cassandra could only attribute it to her emotional overreaction. Cassandra looked at her and thought, ¡®It is nearly November, and she wraps herself up tightly by clothes, so it is hard to tell if she has any injuries underneath. But what does that matter to me anyway?¡¯ Seeing Cassandra¡¯s radiant appearance, Yulissa couldn¡¯t help but feel an intense hatred, ¡®Why can she get to live such a morous life while I¡¯m suffering?

You know what you''ve done. Denying it won''t solve anything,¡± Cassandra said, turning her head slightly to give Yulissa a sidelong nce. ¡°Or do you think stalling for time will make Zack Jamese to your rescue?¡± Cassandra added, ¡°Then you should know that the moment you were taken away, you were an outcast, and he would never notice you anymore.¡± Yulissa looked at Cassandra with intense hatred and kept telling herself, ¡®I will Tue, 19 Mar Chapter 333 never believe anything you say!

You, or him, how can you evenpare to Keh?¡± Cassandra retorted. And she thought, ¡°These people, they have no sense of self-awareness? ¡®Without understanding their position, they think they¡¯re invincible. Yulissa¡¯s face stiffened, and her eyes instinctively avoided Cassandra¡¯s gaze. She can¡¯t help but think nervously, ¡®Why did Cassandra know?

Let¡¯s see whoes first, him or your sentencing. Cassandra prepared to leave the interrogation room, but Yulissa was scared. She didn¡¯t dare to gamble because she was afraid that she would lose everything. ¡°Cassandra, you''re safe and sound. Why can¡¯t you just let me off the hook? I¡¯m already destroyed.

The sons of the Yates family also learned this news soon. Yulissa hadn¡¯t shown up since Miranda was arrested. Now she showed up again and was taken away by the police? She even made a homemade bomb to kill Cassandra. How could she be so capable? ording to the news online, Gassandra should be fine, but they were still worried. Chapter 331 Yohannes volunteered. ¡°I''ll try my luck at Juset University to see if | can meet Cassandra and make sure she is okay.¡± They were no longer qualified to appear in front of Cassandra. Now they had nothing and they had hurt her before, so there was no room for refutation at all. There was no proper excuse for them to call Cassandra. ¡°Okay, Yohannes.

But it was still early, so she went back to the ssroom of the medical department. first. Cassidy and Sofia hurriedly surrounded her. Sofia said, ¡°Cassandra, are you okay? We all saw what happened on the Inte.¡± Cassandra smiled and walked around in front of them, ¡°I¡¯m fine.¡± Cassidy breathed a sigh of relief and asked with concern, ¡°Cassie, since Yulissa wast caught, she won''t be released again, right? Otherwise, it will be so scary.¡± Cassidy was worried about this matter. If Yulissa came out again, would Cassandra still encounter danger and unexpected danger around her? ¡°| don¡¯t think she will be released again.¡± Cassandra shook her head. If Yulissa coulde out this time, she could only admire how shameless Zack was and sigh like father, like daughter. ¡°That¡¯s good.¡± Only then did Cassidy feel relieved. Cassandra frowned. She always felt that there was something wrong with Cassidy these two times, but she couldn¡¯t pinpoint what was wrong. Chapter 334 In the beginning, Cassidy had a sense of boundary. But now, when Cassandra showed up, Cassidy couldn¡¯t wait to be attached to her. Sofia even said that Cassidy had worked so hard recently, as if she had been stimted. Cassandra shook her head. Anyway, she didn¡¯t want to give it too much thought. It was almost time for her to give a lecture to the graduate students. This time, the postgraduate ssroom was even more exaggerated than that of undergraduate students. In thest two rows of the ssroom, there were no people sitting at all but a group of people standing densely. Cassandra had experienced the exaggeration when she gave a lecture to undergraduate students, so she wasn¡¯t quite surprised about this. Outside the ssroom, there was still a group of people standing. Those who didn¡¯t know would think there was a superstar in the ssroom. Cassandra still opened the door for teachers as usual. This time, she talked about knowledge from books, so students outside could quickly find what Cassandra was talking about. The end of the sses left them panting for more. Some of those in the second year of graduate school seemed to be thinking about why the professor didn¡¯t exin it in this way when he took this ss. What a concise and clear method! The professors in the front row were also pondering. This method was simpler than the one in the book and much easier to remember in their minds. Different paths led to the same end, and finally, they could get the same principle. ¡°Professor Yates, when are you going to give us a lecture again? Can we have extra lectures?¡± ¡°That¡¯s right.

Howard also knew that Cassandra had something to deal with, so he said, ¡°Let''s contact on WhatsApp.¡± Then he left directly. Cassandra got in the car and for a moment, she couldn¡¯t remember where the company was. ¡°Miss, where are you going?¡± asked the driver. Cassandra asked, ¡°Sir, do you know where the headquarters of Magnolia Studio is?¡± The driverughed heartily and said in a bright voice, ¡°Of course, | know.

It is a peak hour at this time in Drieso and it took me an hour to drive here,¡± the driver said apologetically. Cassandra looked at the time and showed her understanding. After 5:30 pm, there was heavy traffic on every road in Drieso. It was not easy for the driver to arrive. here in such a short time. ¡°It''s okay. Thank you, sir.¡± Cassandra paid the fare and got out of the car, saying nothing more to the driver. It was a three-story studio facing the street, which was regarded as one of the earliest gathering ces for young entrepreneurial teams. However, in the end, it was all acquired by Cassandra. The office space covered about 54,000 square feet and now belonged to Magnolia Studio. Only when Cassandra saw the words ¡°Magnolia Studio¡± did she feel very familiar with the ce. It turned out to be here. She happened to see Lydia waiting at the door. Lydia looked a little anxious. She wondered, ¡®Why hasn¡¯t Ms. Yates arrived yet?¡± ¡°Lydia.¡± Lydia turned her head in surprise and saw Cassandra. She hurried forward and said, ¡°Ms. Yates, you''re finally here. | thought you got lost.¡± Cassandra was rendered speechless. It couldn''t be. Lydia took her into the office.

Wasn''t it good to get dividends every year? ¡°Humph, | won¡¯t listen to you!¡± Lydia raised her head proudly, not wanting to hear Cassandra¡¯s exnation.. However, Cassandra knew Lydia very well. So she said in a slightly ttering tone, ¡°Lydia, how can | make. up for it?¡± Lydia smiled cunningly and thought, ¡®Humph! That''s exactly what | am waiting for!¡± Lydia looked at Cassandra affectionately. Looking at her sun-kissed face, Lydia thought it was so good to be young. Then Lydia couldn¡¯t help but touch Cassandra¡¯s face. ¡°The International Perfume Competition is around the corner. Do you want to participate?¡± Cassandra was speechless. Was it toote to take back what she said? ¡°Can | refuse?¡± Cassandra raised her eyes and looked at Lydia innocently. At the sight of this, Lydia¡¯s heart softened. There was an eight-year gap between her and Cassandra. She was 26 years old, and she had be an olddy.

Keh was stunned. Who did Cassandra have dinner with? Why didn¡¯t she tell him today? Anyway, Cassandra had her own social life, so hel replied, [When will it end? I¡¯ll pick you up.] [I don¡¯t know.

Lydia looked up at Keh and felt very unhappy. She thought, ¡°Why is this guy chasing us here?¡± Cassandra narrowed her eyes and asked obediently, ¡°Ken, why are you here so early?¡±N?velDrama.Org ? 2024. Keh had never seen Cassandra like this before, not even in his dreams. She was so happy, obedient, and cute. It waspletely different from her usual appearance.

He could wait outside, but now he came in just to get involved! ¡°You don¡¯t mind me joining, do you?¡± Eddie also put on his charming smile and said, ¡°Hello, everyone. I¡¯m Lydia¡¯s husband.¡± Several senior executives were all girls. For a while, two handsome men came here, which made them infatuated! They were so shocked that their jaws almost dropped!

Eddie just smiled faintly and sat beside Keh quietly. On his left was Keh, and on his right was his wife. The two men separated Cassandra and Lydia quietly. They were so petty. ¡°Don¡¯t me me. Look at your reactions. If you bring him out, you will be all obsessed with him. Can you still work or not?¡± Lydia said angrily. She didn¡¯t have to be reserved in the military residentialpound at all, and she seemed to be more capable of being herself here.. She felt Eddie''s pride andcency. Was there anything to be proud of when people in herpany praised him? ¡°Mrs. Frey, you can¡¯t say that. Handsome men can make our lives more wonderful.

You guys came here. because you knew that Lydia and | were having dinner together,¡± Cassandra asked in a low voice. She didn¡¯t know why she felt so sweet.

He gently rubbed Cassandra¡¯s head. This scene happened to be seen by Yana, which made her a little jealous and fierce! Cassandra dared to seduce Keh in the living room! How could she be so shameless? Bitch! Bitch! ¡°Susan, go get some hot milk for Cassie. She will go to bed after having the milk.¡± Cassandra was too skinny. Since she came to Pinehart Mansion, she had to have more nutritious food and she had drunk hot milk before going to bed for a while. Cassandra was a little thirsty and wasn''t full.

However, it was not brought by Susan but by Yana. ¡°Ms. Yates, this is the milk prepared by the kitchen for you. Enjoy it while it¡¯s hot.¡± Yana put the tray on the coffee table, picked up the ss, and handed it to Cassandra attentively. Suddenly, her hand slipped and the rim of the ss was facing Cassandra. She turned over and sshed a ss of milk towards Cassandra! Cassandra immediately got up and whirled around to avoid the milk spilling on her body, but there were still some stains. The ss fell to the ground and broke into pieces. Susan and William came out when they heard the noise! ¡°Ms. Yates, are you okay?¡± Susan hurriedly asked with concern. Susan was going to serve the milk, but Yana insisted that she would do it. Susan thought it was just a ss of milk and it didn¡¯t matter if Yana served it. But why did something happen? ¡°Ms. Yates, are you hurt?¡± William also asked with concern. On the other hand, when Cassandra got up, probably because of inertia, Yana tried. to dodge it but failed. She was burned by the hot milk instead. ¡°Boohoo¡­ It hurts!¡± Yana moaned painfully as if she wanted to attract someone¡¯s attention. ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± Seeing the scene downstairs, Keh hurriedly went downstairs and came to Cassandra. He looked at her up and down to check if she was alright. ¡°What happened?¡± ¡°Nothing. It¡¯s just that the milk was spilled,¡± Cassandra said coldly. She had felt that there was something wrong with Yana since she entered Pinehart Mansion, but she didn¡¯t expect that Yana wanted to hurt her so quickly. ¡°Ms. Yates, why did you do this to me? I didn¡¯t say anything. Why did you deliberately knock over the ss and burn me? Is it because I am a maid that I O web, zu Mar Chapter 337 have no human rights?¡± Yana was crying and using Cassandra. 66 She implied that Cassandra was a person who didn¡¯t care about the maids and did not respect them! Such a misbehaved person didn¡¯t deserve to be Keh¡¯s girlfriend! Cassandra frowned and looked at Yana in disbelief. Yana was so good at fabricating lies. Cassandra asked, ¡°What did you say just now? ¡°Say it again?¡± Susan and William changed their expressions abruptly. Yana had worked with them for several years, so they believed her. Cassandra just came here a couple of days ago¡­ Therefore, they tended to believe what Yana said. Perhaps what Cassandra did before was an illusion! She was actually an arrogant youngdy!

I am scared.¡± Yana also stepped back a few times symbolically along the edge of the sofa. There was a subconscious reaction. Cassandra was only here for two days, and Yana was really good at wronging people. Keh¡¯s face darkened. He wondered, ¡®Who is she? How dare she wrong Cassie?¡± ¡°Shut up!¡± ¡°Mr. Zelinski, I¡¯m telling the truth. You can check the surveince video if you don¡¯t believe me.¡± Yana seemed to have no fear. This position was just a half¨Cdead corner, and only the parts above her head could be captured by the surveince camera. The other parts were blocked by the backrest of the sofa. Therefore, Yana was sure that the surveince camera didn¡¯t capture what happened just now. ¡°What¡¯s the use of checking the surveince video? Anyone who knows a little bit about it knows that the surveince camera can only capture a limited area from that angle. We can¡¯t see what happened just now at all, so you can say whatever you want,¡± Cassandra nced at the surveince camera and said sternly. ¡°Ms. Yates, I¡¯m just a maid.

If I remember correctly, it should be the first time we talked today. Tell me how much hatred between us and I want to make things difficult for you deliberately at this moment. What¡¯s more, why should I do this in front of so many people?¡± Cassandra walked towards Yana. Her face was gloomy, and it could be seen that she was a little angry. Yana was a little scared, but she couldn¡¯t back down. She must let Keh see Cassandra clearly! She must make Keh kick Cassandra out. Pinehart Mansion. was not where Cassandra should be! ¡°Well¡­ Ms. Yates, maybe you enjoy doing this for fun. How do I know? I only went to the room twice this week and didn¡¯t do anything wrong,¡± Yana exined. Cassandra nodded seriously. ¡°That¡¯s what I want to ask you. I came here for a week and nothing special happened. Even when you were cleaning up, I was not there. Why do I pick on you and use such a clumsy means to ssh the milk? If I really want to deal with you, there will be thousands of ways. You can¡¯t even find out the reason why. Do you think I will let you use me here?¡± Yana¡¯s heart skipped a beat and she was scared. She pretended to be generous and said, ¡°Ms. Yates, just let it go. It was all my fault. It won¡¯t happen again.¡± She looked at Keh and said in a sweet voice, ¡°Mr. Zelinski, please stop pursuing this matter. I am fine.¡± She thought that Keh had a gloomy face because he was dissatisfied with Cassandra and wanted to help her! But she didn¡¯t expect that Keh would not take her seriously at all! Cassandra snorted coldly and said sarcastically, ¡°You don¡¯t want to pursue this matter, but I will.¡± ¡°Ms. Yates, you can¡¯t do this to me just because you are the boss. I have admitted it was my fault just now. What else do you want from me?¡± Yana burst into tears, as if she wanted to pretend that everyone was ming her! ¡°Did I spill the milk deliberately or did you want to ssh it on me but failed? Let¡¯s check the surveince,¡± Cassandra said coldly. Yana¡¯s face turned pale. How could there be another surveince camera? The one in the living room couldn¡¯t capture what she did at all! 11:20 W 20 Mar Chapter 337 Therefore, Cassandra had no evidence at all. Thinking of this, Yana was more confident! ¡°Alright. If the truthes out, I hope Ms. Yates can apologize to me. Even though I am a servant, I also have dignity.¡± Yana¡¯s words were righteous, but in fact, she was overjoyed in her heart. Yana thought, ¡®Cassandra is such an idiot. How stupid she is! She actually wants to check the surveince video! Is there anyone more familiar with the surveince camera in the Zelinski manor than me?¡® Unexpectedly, Cassandra took Yana by surprise. She didn¡¯t go to the monitoring room to get the footage and even stopped William from checking the surveince camera. She took out herputer from her bag and opened the surveince video within two minutes. There was something wrong with Yana¡¯s eyes in the video. When she was about to approach Cassandra, she sshed the ss of milk backhand. No one knew why she would burn herself instead. But at least, it proved that Cassandra had nothing to do with this. ¡°How¡­ is that possible?¡± N É« SEND GIFT 0 COMMENT Chapter 338 Chapter 338 66% Keh was furious.

There is only one surveince camera in the living room¡­¡± Yana hurriedly covered her mouth regardless of the burn on her hand. She spilled the beans. Keh looked gloomy and didn¡¯t speak. He seemed to re up. This was the maid who had been selected after a series of rounds of selections. Yet, she wanted to hurt Cassandra after he told her identity! How could such a person deserve to live in this world? ¡°Are you curious about where this surveince video came from?¡± Cassandra¡¯s eyes were cold and sharp for some reason. Yana unconsciously wanted to step back! Cassandra pointed to the furnishings on both sides of the living room and said slowly, ¡°I came here for my own safety. Since I entered Pinehart Mansion, there have been two more cameras in this living room, and they are all under my surveince.¡± This surveince camera was installed by Jeremiah and Keh, so only the three of them knew about it, not even William. How could Yana know that? Keh had always felt that there would be no problem with the people in his mansion, but he didn¡¯t expect that the maid actually wanted to hurt the future. matriarch! Yana¡¯s face turned pale. How could this happen? ¡°Mr. Zelinski, I didn¡¯t mean it. I just think that Ms. Yates has an unknown background. She must hatch a sinister plot!¡± Yana looked at Keh imploringly and even squatted beside him in a humble tone. ¡°Ever since Cassie entered Pinehart Mansion, I told all of you that she was my girlfriend and the future matriarch here. How do you think Pinehart Mansion got its name? That¡¯s because I missed her! I know her background and you don¡¯t have any right to ask!¡± Keh¡¯s eyes were filled with anger.

Then she can¡¯t stay in Drieso anymore!¡± All those who hurt Cassandra must pay the price! ¡°Mr. Zelinski, I was wrong. Mr. Zelinski, please give me another chance!¡± Yana was really scared! She earned 8,000 dors a month in Pinehart Mansion, which already matched the wages of many office workers in Drieso! If she was really kicked out of Pinehart Mansion, there was no way for her to find a job. Keh would also ban her so that she could not stay in Drieso anymore. If she offended Keh, it would be against all the rich and powerful families. Where else could she go? ¡°Can¡¯t you hear me? Throw her out!¡± Keh shouted at William. Only then did William realize that Yana might be doomed. William even thought what Yana had said was true. It was because he had little contact with Cassandra and didn¡¯t even talk to her. Instead, he knew Yana very well in the past few years. But he did not expect that Yana actually had a thing for Keh and even wanted to hurt Cassandra. He shouldn¡¯t have suspected Cassandra just now. William was genuinely remorseful, and he looked at Susan, who had the same guilty face. They were both fooled by their subconscious reaction. They were well aware of what kind of person Keh was. How could his woman. be that insidious and cunning person? ¡°Yes, Mr. Zelinski!¡± William summoned two bodyguards, ready to take Yana out! ¡°Mr. Zelinski, Mr. Zelinski, I was wrong.

How about you? Can you? Can you do that? Or do you just think that the position of thedy of the Zelinski family should be yours? As long as you are in this position, you can do nothing and enjoy the wealth brought by Ken at home?¡± Yana was speechless. Shouldn¡¯t it be like this? A man like Keh should need a gentle woman, not an unfeminine person like Cassandra! ¡°You have neither capability nor talent. You don¡¯t deserve to love Ken, do you?¡± ¡°Why am I not qualified?

As for who would interrogate her, it depended on Keh¡¯s arrangement. After Cassandra fell asleep, Keh went to the dark room unhurriedly. Yana shrank in the corner in despair, and she broke down at that moment. Why did Keh do this to her? Cassandra was not hurt, so why did he keep her here? The door of the dark room was opened, and a bright light shone in. Yana, who had been in the dark for two hours, couldn¡¯t get used to it at that time.

She wasn¡¯t a martial arts master, so she could only throw the pellet into Yulissa¡¯s mouth without being noticed when they were close enough. Yulissa felt something tiny enter her mouth, but she didn¡¯t find it or feel anything wrong in her throat. ¡°Judge, Cassandra is trying to hurt me!¡± Yulissa starts to make wild usations. ¡°What happened?¡± Hayden asked from the bench. One of the police officers said, ¡°Your Honor, Ms. Cassandra Yates did not approach the defendant and nothing happened.¡± ¡°Then just take her down and proceed with the execution of the sentence,¡± ordered the judge. Devastated, Yulissa almost fainted.. ¡®Life imprisonment! My life will be ruined. How can I live in prison for the rest of my life?¡¯ she reflected. The police officers took Yulissa away immediately this time. Cassandra nodded. slightly to them and turned back to Keh. After the hearing, Keh and Cassandra left. At this time, the six brothers of the Yates family also followed up. Leonardo was. pushed out by them. ¡°Cassandra, wait a minute!¡± 66% Chapter 340 At the door of the courthouse, Raymond suddenly shouted from behind to ask Cassandra to stop, but Cassandra ignored him. Matthew suddenly stepped faster, opened his arms, and blocked Cassandra¡¯s way. Cassandra¡¯s face darkened. She looked at Matthew coldly and said, ¡°What do your want?¡± Matthew seemed to realize that something was wrong. He hurriedly put down his hand and said apologetically, ¡°Cassie, I¡¯m sorry. I didn¡¯t mean it just now. You wanted to leave, so I had no choice but to stop you.¡± ¡°What are you going to say, or do you think there¡¯s anything left to talk about between us?¡± Cassandra looked at him coldly. At this time, the remaining five men behind him also came up.. They stood in front of Cassandra with mixed emotions on their faces. Even Frederick, who used to be stubborn, seemed to have changed somehow. ¡°Cassandra, I know I was being bad to you before. I¡¯m sorry,¡± Raymond said stiffly. This time, he came to see the oue for Yulissa with his own eyes. Now that he had seen it, what he needed to do next was to apologize to Cassandra, He struggled for a long time and finally managed to say it. ¡°Ha. Don¡¯t you think it¡¯s a littlete to apologize now?¡± Cassandra sneered sarcastically. ¡®What¡¯s the use of talking about this now? Do they think I need their apology? What took them so long then?¡® she thought. Raymond hesitated, ¡°I¡­¡± ¡°Cassie, no matter whether you ept it or not, I will always be your brother. This will never change. I was wrong back then. I¡¯m sorry. I don¡¯t expect you to forgive us. I just hope that you can let go of the hatred in your heart.¡± The dreams he had on Desert Ind kept him alive. Without dreams, he would have been eaten by wild animals. What happened in the dreams might have happened. If that was the case, however Cassandra treated them in this lifetime would be justified. Cassandra smiled sarcastically, but her eyes were sharper. ¡°Let go of your hatred?¡± Cassandra took a step toward Leonardo. ¡°Don¡¯t you find that funny? You ask me to 66% Chapter 310 go of my hatred. Should I let you off the hook as well?¡± let go ¡°That¡­ That¡¯s not what I mean,¡± Leonardo sighed. ¡°Our family has nothing left. The six of us have lost our parents too. In the future, we can only rely on each other and will not be able to do something big. I know you won¡¯t forgive us. I¡¯m just hoping you won¡¯t live a life full of hatred.¡± He wondered if his punishment would be enough to make Cassandra feel better. Hearing Cassandra¡¯s words, he felt heartbroken for her. But it seemed that he could do nothing but feel the pain. ¡°I know you may have gone through past and present lives, but no matter what, we, -bastard brothers have never treated you right. You have every right to hate us. It¡¯s just that the end of this life is different. I hope you can be happy from now 1. on. How could Cassandra not understand what Leonardo said? ¡°You are all living well. Of course, I will live a better life than you. You¡¯d better not. appear in front of me again. Otherwise, I will only make you suffer more than I did. in my previous life,¡± Cassandra snorted. ¡°You¡­ Cassandra, do you hate us that much? The so¨Ccalled past life is just dreams. What happened in the dreams didn¡¯t happen for real, did it? Are we that unforgivable?¡± Jasper wondered why she was always targeting them. The drug that amplified the pain appeared in his dream, and he used it on Cassandra. However, the reality was that Cassandra used it on him, which proved that the tragic person in the end wasn¡¯t Cassandra. He wondered, ¡°Then why does she hate us so much? ¡®I¡¯ve made it through such a painful time. Why can¡¯t she let go of me? I love medicine so much, but now I¡¯m cklisted by the major hospitals, and there¡¯s no room for me in the medical field.¡® Cassandra¡¯s face changed, and she looked at Jasper sharply. ¡°That¡¯s a good idea. How about I stab you now and you forgive me as if nothing happens?¡± Cassandra whispered to Jasper, ¡°Jasper, I came from hell for revenge. Neither you. nor Leonardo will live well.¡± The others who beat her and who watched coldly had got what they deserved. Chapter 340 Jasper was the one who handed over the knife and injected drugs into her, while Leonardo was the one who dumped her body. Neither of them would live an easy life. They had to live out their days in pain to quell the hatred in her heart. Jasper¡¯s face turned pale, and his whole body stiffened. He didn¡¯t know how to react for an instant. ¡°If you came to apologize and want me to forgive you, then let me make it very clear to you.¡± Cassandra nced at the six of them and said coldly, ¡°It will never happen!¡± Keh stepped forward, held Cassandra in his arms, and took her away.

When they arrived, Cassandra realized something was wrong and said in a daze, ¡°This is not Pinehart Mansion.¡± Material ? of N?velDrama.Org. Keh unfastened his seat belt and was about to get out of the car to open the door for Cassandra. His gentle voice made Cassandra a little confused. ¡°No, it is not. I¡¯ll take you to a good ce.¡± After saying that, he got out and walked to the passenger side to open the door for her. Cassandra raised her eyebrows and asked indifferently, ¡°Keh, where are we going?¡± She got out of the car and stood in front of Keh. Then she looked up and saw the words ¡°Thunder Boxing Gym¡°. ¡°You brought me here to box?¡± Cassandra asked uncertainly. ¡°Yeah, let¡¯s go.¡± Keh took her hand as he spoke. He had booked the ce for the day, so they could have a lot of fun. ¡°Will you box with me?¡± Cassandra asked with a raised eyebrow. ¡°As long as you want, I will.¡± He was ready to join her in whatever she wanted, just to help her forget the unpleasant memories the scum had left her with. Cassandra¡¯s eyes were bright with excitement at Keh¡¯s suggestion. She turned around and pulled Keh towards the gym. ¡°Come on, let¡¯s fight!¡± Cassandra had forgotten all her unhappiness. All she could think about was the fight with Keh. She wanted to know who was stronger. When Cassandra and Keh entered the rum, they found it almost empty. She thought it was weird. ¡®Usually, there are a lot of people in Thunder Boxing Gym, but why is there no one today?¡® she wondered. ¡°I booked the ce today. I booked the ce for today, just for us to y. I even called a few sparring partners, soter we can team up and have some fun with. Wed, 20 Mar 5.5 Chapter 341 them,¡± Keh said with a chuckle, affectionately ruffling her hair. 66% Although he didn¡¯t understand what Leonardo meant by past and present lives, he could feel that Cassandra¡¯s aura had changed. She seemed upset and even the hatred in her eyes increased. He didn¡¯t want to see Cassandra like this. He wanted her to be safe and carefree forever. Keh thought he was also responsible for her tragedy in the Yates family. He was stuck abroad and didn¡¯t make it back early. If he hade back earlier at that time, she would not have suffered so much. No one from the Yates family was going to get away with it. Cassandra didn¡¯t take it seriously. All she was thinking about now was that she was so happy to fight with Keh. ¡°Let¡¯s go change our clothes and have apetition!¡± Cassandra couldn¡¯t wait any longer. Five minutester, she changed into her gear and put on her gloves. With everything ready, she was standing in the boxing ring. ¡°Keh, let¡¯s get one thing straight before we start. If this is apetition, then you have to give it your all. It¡¯s no fun if you go easy on me.¡± Cassandra just wanted to have a good fight. It didn¡¯t matter whether she won or lost. ¡°Alright, but no matter who wins, you can¡¯t get mad at me.¡± Keh also made it clear. Since Cassandra wanted to take it seriously, he would do as she wished. ¡®But if I identally¡­ Hope she¡¯s not getting angry!¡± he mumbled to himself. ¡°Okay, I¡¯m not petty. You think too much!¡± Cassandra was ready to attack. ¡°Good.¡± Keh got ready to defend, his voice maic as he counted down. ¡°Three! Two! One! Begin!¡± After Keh finished speaking, Cassandra rushed at him quickly. She was an offensive fighter, especially in the ring. She liked to attack rather than defend because her ultimate goal was to ovee her opponent. 11:23 Wed, 20 Mar SS. Chapter 341 Keh had been dodging, never facing off with Cassandra head¨Con. Cassandra was a little dissatisfied and said in a cold voice, ¡°Keh, stop just defending. Attack!¡± That wasn¡¯t fun at all. ¡°Okay!¡± Keh started throwing powerful punches, but he purposely paused for a second just before it reached Cassandra, giving her time to react. In this way, she wouldn¡¯t be overpowered by his moves. Yet Cassandra¡¯s reaction was also very quick. She was the most responsive yer he had ever seen, and she definitely had the talent for being a soldier. However, she was also working for the country¨Cnow. He didn¡¯t need another. identity. He just hoped that she could be safe and sound. They fought in the ring for nearly half an hour, but there was still no winner. Even the seven people who appeared outside the ring didn¡¯t catch their attention. They were Jeremiah, Timothy, Cyrus, Kayden, Yannick, Ethan, and Lamont. They sat in rows outside the ring, shocked, with their eyes wide. ¡°Keh, you scumbag! How dare you fight with ine!¡± Jeremiah shouted. Although ine was good at fighting, he didn¡¯t know whether Keh was a good. fighter. He thought, ¡®What if he hurt,ine?¡® Cassandra an Hearing the sound, Keh paused for a moment and gave opportunity to take advantage of it. A punch hit Keh¡¯s chest. He took a few steps back. Jeremiah suddenly became interested, thinking, ¡®Amander? He couldn¡¯t even beat Cassandra. He should just retire!¡® ¡°Let¡¯s take a break.¡± Keh stopped Cassandra calmly and effortlessly. She was amazed, eximing inwardly, ¡®How is he so strong? Humph. He must be holding back during our fight!¡® ¡°Keh, can¡¯t you do any better? Even ine is beating you. You¡¯re so weak!¡± Jeremiah said. It was a mix of mockery and somewhat absurd joking. Keh didn¡¯t know how to respond. 11:23 Wed, 20 Mar SS. Chapter 341 He thought, ¡®Why did I even bother inviting Jeremiah? I¡¯m all Cassandra needs, anyway! ¡®I really want to shut his mouth for him!¡± 66% Yannick felt Keh¡¯s cold gaze and hurriedly stepped forward to pull Jeremiah. He also began to comin about him, ¡°Come on! You can¡¯t even beat me. How dare you mock Keh? Do you have a death wish?¡± Jeremiah snorted arrogantly. He remarked inwardly, ¡®I can¡¯t beat Yannick, so what? ine will never hit me! She will only hit this group of violent people.¡¯ ¡°ine, are you still capable? Keh is so weak, but you can¡¯t even beat him. Have you lost your touch?¡± Jeremiah deliberately ¡°taunted¡± Cassandra. Cassandra was left speechless. She felt like hitting someone. Kayden noticed Cassandra¡¯s skill, which could not be mastered in a year or two. ¡®How much did Cassie suffer outside?¡± he thought. ¡°Jeremiah, cut the crap. Get changed ande up here!¡± Cassandra asked. Jeremiah to enter the ring with a cold face. ¡°Cassandra, I have a good idea. Do you want to try it?¡± Keh suddenly offered. ¡°What is it?¡± ¡°How about two vs. seven?¡± Keh¡¯s eyes lingered on the seven people for a second, and then he gently looked at Cassandra. ¡°It¡¯s you and me against those seven. What do you think?¡± Cassandra blinked and said, ¡°Let¡¯s do it!¡± É« Chapter 342 Chapter 342 Yannick¡¯s face darkened in an instant. Ethan couldn¡¯t help but re at Keh angrily. He thought, ¡®Don¡¯t you know how powerful you¡¯re? ¡®I¡¯m just a psychiatrist, or hypnotist the most, not a professional fighter. I don¡¯t have the same physical strength as Yannick and Lamont? This is actually 2 vs. 6, okay? I can surrender immediately. But Jeremiah was a little eager to try. He had long wanted to deal with Keh who took away Cassandra he raised, so he didn¡¯t like Keh at all. Seeing Jeremiah¡¯s attitude, Yannick couldn¡¯t help rolling his eyes. ¡°Can you beat him? Anyway, Ethan, Lamont, and I can¡¯t beat Mr. Zelinski even if the three of us fight together.¡± To be exact, only Lamont could get close to Keh. Yannick and Ethan had no chance at all, and Ethan didn¡¯t even have the power to attack. Ethan was a real man of liberal arts who had no strength at all. The only outstanding thing was that he was very good at hypnosis and shooting. ¡°We have seven people. What are you afraid of?¡± Jeremiah looked at Yannick speechlessly. Jeremiah thought, ¡®What¡¯s wrong with this guy? How could he discourage us?¡® ¡°Cut the crap and go change your clothes.¡± Cassandra urged them. She thought, ¡®Why are standing there and chatting?¡± Cyrus looked at Cassandra with ambiguous and hurt eyes. He thought, ¡®Cassie seemed to be living a good life by Keh¡¯s side. He doesn¡¯t imprison her like other people or stop Cassie from socializing with others. ¡®When Cassie is unhappy, he calls us over just to apany Cassie and make her happy, though he knows that we are both men. Can I do this? ¡®Well, it¡¯s hard.¡± Perhaps this was the reason why Cyrus didn¡¯t dare to speak out. Cassandra was unrestrained and felt free to love and hate others. As a man, Cyrus would even bet jealous when he saw Cassandra was with Jeremiah. Wed, 20 Mar Chapter 342 But Keh could hold back his jealousy and ept their existence. Soon, seven people stood in the ring. 66% Kayden was a little excited. He had seen the video of Cassandra hitting someone, but he didn¡¯t have a chance topete with her.. ¡°Cassie, don¡¯t be merciful,¡± Kayden said. During this period, he seemed to feel that Cassandra didn¡¯t hate him so much. As long as the Yates family was not mentioned, she did not seem to be so repulsive to Kayden. Moreover, because of the trip to Zosteylor, he felt that he had no right to ask Cassandra to go home again. How could they be entitled to ask Cassandra toe back after abandoning her so many times? Cassandra frowned and seemed to be a little dissatisfied with Kayden¡¯s calling her ¡°Cassie¡°. However, she could bear it because Kayden was Keh¡¯s friend. Soon, the nine of them fought together, and Ethan surrendered at the beginning as expected. ¡°Mr. Zelinski and Ms. Yates, I¡¯m the weakest among them. Don¡¯t hit me. I have to treat people with my brain.¡± Ethan surrendered spinelessly. He stood in the ring just to make up the number, and he had nothing to do with this game. Cassandra was speechless. All of a sudden, the number of people on the other side changed from seven to six. The scufflested for more than an hour. Yannick and Jeremiah had been begging for mercy. Even Timothy copsed on the ground because of exhaustion, shouting to stop. Lamont was ingenuous. He took this game and fought with Keh very seriously. It was not that he didn¡¯t fight against Cassandra, but he was afraid that if he continued to fight and hurt Cassandra, Keh might kill him. About half an hourter, Cyrus and Lamont surrendered. They were exhausted and suffered a lot of injuries. Finally, it became a 1 vs. 2 game. Kayden was alone to fight against Keh and Cassandra. Kayden surrendered sensibly and simplyy on the ring. 66% Chapter 312 He couldn¡¯t beat Keh, let alone him plus Cassandra. ¡°Let¡¯s stop. I surrender, too.¡± Seven people were injured to varying degrees, except for Ethan who surrendered. voluntarily. Cassandra¡¯s forehead was full of sweat, and it could be seen that she enjoyed the fight. +5 ¡°You¡¯re so weak.¡± Keh couldn¡¯t help butin and kicked Kayden who was pretending to be dead on the ground. Kayden turned over and sat up. ¡°I surrendered. Why are you still kicking me?¡± ¡°It¡¯s gettingte. Cassie should have dinner.¡± Keh looked at the men lying there and raised his eyebrows unconsciously. Kayden stood up and volunteered to say, ¡°Let¡¯s go to my restaurant. There have been many new dishes recently. Cassie, have a try?¡± In fact, Kayden was worried that Cassandra would directly refuse his invitation. However, he received a ¡°yes¡± in a cold voice. Cassandra agreed. Keh had told Cassandra everything that happened in Zosteylor, Kayden¡¯s reaction to meeting Darren, and what he was thinking. In her heart, Cassandra. liked the people around Keh since she loved Keh. Kayden was Keh¡¯s good friend. So, Cassandra didn¡¯t hate him. But if Kayden asked her to go back to the Yates family, she would turn against him. However, when she knew that Kayden spoke for her in front of Darren, she was actually not very dissatisfied. As long as Kayden didn¡¯t ask her to go back to the Yates family, anything would be fine. After changing her clothes, Cassandra took a shower in the bathroom of the boxing gym. When she came out refreshed, she saw that people were all waiting for her there. ¡°Come on, let¡¯s go to dinner,¡± Cassandra said. ¡°Not us. It¡¯s you and me only,¡± Keh stressed. 11:23 Wed, 20 Mar S S Chapter 342 bb% Cassandra tilted her head and looked at him. She wondered, ¡®Aren¡¯t here nine of us?¡± ¡°Keh, are you going to leave us behind?¡± Kayden couldn¡¯t believe what he heard. ¡°I¡¯m going to have dinner with Cassie. If you want to eat, just drive there and book a private room for yourselves.¡± Keh took Cassandra¡¯s hand and walked out of the gym. Kayden, Jeremiah, and others were left speechless. ¡°Let¡¯s go. We¡¯ll drive ourselves. Jeremiah was not so easy to get rid of. He wanted to see how good the dishes were that made Cassandra and Keh leave them behind directly. Kayden agreed, so the seven men took three cars and followed Kayden to his restaurant in the suburbs. When they arrived, Cassandra had already begun to enjoy the new dishes. The food there was to her taste and she liked it very much. Besides, since she was exhausted today, she ate a lot. In the private room for two, Cassandra said to Keh seriously after dinner, ¡°Ken, thank you for asking them to apany me today. I feel much better now.¡± She knew that Keh wanted her to vent today, so he found a boxing gym and let her vent to her heart¡¯s content. This was the most effective way. Although the six brothers of Benjamin¡¯s family couldn¡¯t affect her, she felt they were disgusting because they still said those words when they knew about everything. Cassandra wished she could kill them right at the entrance of the courthouse.

During this period, there was nothing important. The Whitecrane Hall was also in good operation. However, one more thing she was busy with now was the International Perfume- Competition. Lydia had urged her several times to make the perfume for thepetition as soon as possible. She just promised but didn¡¯t get started. Three days before thepetition started, Cassandra received a call from Omar. ¡°Pick me up at the airport, Cassie.¡± Cassandra was stunned. She couldn¡¯t believe what she heard. ¡°Did youe back?¡± ¡°Of course, Hugo and I are both back.¡± ¡°Wait, I¡¯ll be right there.¡± Cassandra hung up the phone and went to Keh¡¯s garage. She drove a car randomly and rushed out directly. Originally, it would take her one hour from Pinehart Mansion to the airport, but it only took her 40 minutes. The moment she got out of the car, she saw Omar and Hugo standing there. In early November, the weather turned cool in Drieso. Winter came the day. before. ¡°Mr. all, why didn¡¯t you tell me in advance?¡± Cassandra stepped forward and took the bag from Omar. ¡°I want to give you a surprise,¡± Omarughed. ¡°How do you feel? Are you surprised?¡± Cassandra was speechless. She thought, ¡®I¡¯m not surprised but scared. Cassandra and Hugo put the luggage in the trunk, and Hugo took the car key to drive. ¡°You and Mr. all have been on a ne for several hours, so I¡¯ll drive it.¡± Cassandra snatched back the key and got into the driver¡¯s seat. 11:23 Wed, 20 Mar S Chapter 343 Omar sat in the passenger seat, and Hugo sat in the back. Cassandra sent them straight back to Hugo¡¯s vi. ¡°I can¡¯t live in Springmount Townhouse anymore. Yulissa sent bombs to kill me twice, and I¡¯m going to move out of it, Cassandra exined. Omar was just wondering why Cassandra didn¡¯t take him to her house. It turned. out that someone had sent bombs to where she used to live. Omar looked serious. ¡°How is that person? Did you kill her?¡± Cassandra said, ¡°She is in prison and was sentenced to life imprisonment, but I won¡¯t let her live comfortably there.¡± It should be a few days before the drug kicked in. By then¡­Yulissa could feel the real pain. The drug was specially developed for Yulissa. In one month at most, she would die. from the drug. Cassandra was taught by Omar. After hearing what she said, Omar understood everything. Cassandra inherited his fine tradition in this regard. As doctors, they had many ways to make people feel pain. They didn¡¯t need to do anything by themselves to punish those bad guys. In the end, they did not have to take responsibility. They could make onemit suicide or die suddenly from an illness, not to mention killing one without being discovered. Wasn¡¯t this more exciting than directly killing Yulissa? ¡°You¡¯re evil¨Cminded.¡± Though Omar wasining, his eyes were full of pride. He thought, ¡®Well, she deserves to be my mentee! ¡°It¡¯s all thanks to you, Mr. all.¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t suffer at all and retorted directly. Omar was speechless. He said in his heart, ¡®It sounds like sarcasm. ¡°Queen Stark¡¯s poison has beenpletely removed. She only needs to rest for half a month and then she will be fine,¡± said Omar. 66% Chapter 343 Omar added, ¡°Harper¡¯s poison came from his mother¡¯s womb. It¡¯s moreplicated, otherwise Hugo and I would havee back early. We don¡¯t need to wait that long at all.¡± Harper¡¯s poison needed to be stripped from the body, which was much moreplicated than Leanna¡¯s. So Omar and Hugo tried many ways and spent a little more time. Fortunately, there was no problem now. With the intake of some traditional medicine and tonics, Harper could slowly recover and live to the age of 80. Of course, as long as he didn¡¯te to make trouble for Cassandra, he could bet guaranteed to live a long life. If not, even if he wouldn¡¯t die, he would suffer much. Cassandra said, ¡°Well, I have reached an agreement with Darren. When Leanna and Harper are cured, they won¡¯t look for me anymore, and I can live a happier life.¡± Cassandra¡¯s life was given by Leanna, and Cassandra wouldn¡¯t do anything to give her life back to them. It would be a good deal for them to exchange the two¡¯s lives. for hers. ¡°Humph, I hope so,¡± Omar said coldly. He thought, ¡®Darren, at first nce, doesn¡¯t look like a gentleman. His promise does not count at all.¡±¡® ¡°Mr. all, you can rest here with Hugo for a few days. Then you can either live in Drieso or go back to your shack,¡± Cassandra said.

He was afraid that Keh would end up like Darren. ¡°I don¡¯t know what will happen in the future. I only know that at present, no one is better than him.¡± When Cassandra thought of Keh, her heart warmed as if she filled with something. Wa ¡°Are you sure?¡± asked Omar. Cassandra answered, ¡°Yeah.¡± Omar said, ¡°Okay. You can bring him to see me formally.¡± It could be said that Cassandra had no family. In that case, Omar was her closest person and also an elder.

Only by making people healthy could they continue to build their homes. This time, everyone thought that the Queen and the prince consort had reacted very quickly.

She was indeed Leanna, Maximilian¡¯s daughter¨Cinw. Maximilian was so excited that he almost fainted. Thanks to Cassandra¡¯s medicine, he was very healthy. Cassandra had changed his medicine twice, both of which were prescriptions Keh gave Kayden. This made the Yates family feel guilty.

No. I should say that Cassandra is very simr to the Queen.] [Are you Cassandra¡¯s fan? Can you stop bragging about her presence in thements of the news? Is everyone like your idol? So funny.] [I justpared Cassandra¡¯s photo with that of the Queen. They are quite simr. But they belong to different countries, otherwise, I would think they are mother and daughter.] [Are there really two people who are so simr in the world?

I¡¯m so envious.]. [The family is indeed very happy. Although she¡¯s the Queen, she and her husband love each other very much, and their child is surnamed after the prince consort, which is unprecedented.] People keptmenting on the Inte. Meanwhile, Cassandra went to ss as usual. When Sofia saw Cassandra in the ssroom of the Traditional Medicine Department at Juset University, she hurriedly pulled Cassandra to spill the tea. Chapter 344 ¡°Cassandra, look! I can¡¯t believe that Harper came back with his parents,¡± Sofia said. ¡°Cassandra, do you think he wille back to have ss?¡± Seeing the news of theirnding, Cassandra¡¯s face darkened. She wondered why they had returned home instead of staying in Zosteylor. ¡°Maybe. It¡¯s their freedom,¡± Cassandra said coldly. Sofia didn¡¯t notice anything. unusual. Suddenly, she seemed to have found something new and said, ¡°Cassandra, I think you and the Queen look alike, but you are better¨Clooking and younger than her.¡± Cassandra was speechless. ¡°Sofia, how dare you say that Cassandra is like the Queen? Do you think she has the fate? Even though she is Samantha and a straight¨CA student, she isn¡¯t destined to be the daughter of a queen.¡± Anabe suddenly heard what Sofia said and couldn¡¯t help but sneer. ¡°It¡¯s none of your business. Cassandra is the best in the world, and it has nothing to do with you,¡± Sofia retorted. She thought, Who the hell are you to nder Cassandra?¡± ¡°Sofia, stop it.¡± Cassandra pulled Sofia. ¡°Many people are alike in the world. It¡¯s not a big deal.¡± Two sses were over. Their next ss would be held around four o¡¯clock in the afternoon. Cassandra could go back to her dormitory and have a rest. Suddenly, a trending topic popped up: ¡°President Eugene Norman invited the Queen¡¯s family to visit Juset University¡°. [What? The Queen ising to Juset University?] [What? I¡¯m going back to change my clothes. I¡¯ll stand in the best position to see the Queen!] [Isn¡¯t the prince a transfer student in the Traditional Medicine Department? He is a cute and positive boy!] [What? He studies in the Traditional Medicine Department? Why?] [That¡¯s true. He¡¯s in the Traditional Medicine Department. I can testify.] Chapter 344 [He once chatted with Sofia in the canteen and wanted to know Cassandra. I don¡¯t remember it clearly. He left after the outbreak of the Zosteylor War. Unexpectedly, he came back again.] After receiving the notice, Juset University responded as quickly as possible. It immediately organized everyone to clean up and decorate the campus, showing its attitude toward receiving the leaders. Even several auditoriums were cleaned up, waiting for their arrival and speeches. After lunch, Sofia and Cassidy went to knock on Cassandra¡¯s door. ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± asked Cassandra. ¡°Cassandra, let¡¯s go. If we arete, there will be no seats,¡± said Sofia excitedly. ¡°What happened? Where are we going?¡± Cassandra¡¯s out of the loop. ¡°The Queen¡¯s family wille to visit our university, and they might give some speeches. Let¡¯s go have a look and upy seats in the auditorium early.¡± Cassandra¡¯s expression changed. She wondered, ¡°Theye to Juset University? ¡®What do theye for? ¡®Why can¡¯t they just visit Clusia? They just came for the first day. Can¡¯t they stop. doing this?¡® Cassandra said coldly, ¡°I¡¯m not feeling well. I won¡¯t go. You can go by yourself.¡± After saying that, she closed the door. The happy family of three came and also wanted to be weed. Cassandra thought it was outrageous. Sofia was a little stunned. She looked at Cassidy and heard her say, ¡°Cassie doesn¡¯t look well. We¡¯d better not disturb her. Let¡¯s go.¡± É« SEND GIFT 0 Chapter 345 Chapter 345 After Sofia and Cassidy left, Cassandra packed up her things and left. ording to the current situation, sses were probably suspended in the afternoon. Moreover, for her, it didn¡¯t matter whether she attended the ss or not. The teacher wouldn¡¯t care about her anyway. Therefore, it didn¡¯t make any difference whether she left or not. It might be better if she left now. Cassandra wasn¡¯t sure whether Leanna¡¯s family wasing for her. If they didn¡¯te for her, she would be happy. If not so, Cassandra might do something. This time, with Eugene¡¯spany with Leanna¡¯s family, Cassandra could escape. After all, it was about national honor. Her apartment building was at the gate of the university, which was rtively easy for her to get there. However, just then, Howard suddenly sent her a message: [Professor Yates, could youe to my office?] Cassandra was speechless. Cassandra replied: [How about tomorrow? I have something to do today.] Howard replied: [I don¡¯t have ss in the afternoon, and I will go to Sloummont for exchange and study tomorrow. So, you¡¯d bettere over now.] Cassandra was very speechless. Howard¡¯s words meant that she must go now. Walking into the campus, Cassandra felt that all teachers and students were curious about Queen Stark. The gate had been surrounded by people, and even many people wereing towards the gate. Cassandra was the only one walking in the opposite direction. On the way, she could see her ssmates running wildly. An hourter, Cassandra came out of Howard¡¯s office. Howard called her there just to ask her to rece her and give two lessons to his students, for he was going to Sloummont and couldn¡¯t attend two sses for undergraduates. For such a matter, Howard could have told Cassandra on WhatsApp. She could have note. At this moment, it seemed impossible for her to leave the gate again. However, in order not to cause panic, the other gates of the school were blocked 66% Chapter 345 for the time being. Cassandra had no choice but to find somewhere to sit down and wait for the visitors to move to the auditorium after meeting the students at the gate. Suddenly, several high¨Cendmercial vehicles drove into the university. The first two cars were leading the way, the third was the car of Clusia¡¯s President, and the fourth was carrying Queen Stark¡¯s family. The bodyguards immediately got out of the car and opened the door. People began to scream. They saw not only the President of their country but also the Queen of Zosteylor, who looked so approachable. Leanna¡¯s family looked so happy. The prince was so handsome and cute. Although people were attracted by them, they did not forget to wee them. Leanna and Eugene stood in the middle, feeling the enthusiasm of Juset University students and waving arms to greet them. Darren and Audrey stood behind Leanna and Eugene respectively, while Harper looked around, trying to find the figure he wanted to see in the crowd. However, he had seen everyone he could see but found that none of them was her. It made sense. Cassandra asked them not to bother her anymore, so how could she appear there? That was impossible. Cassandra could not forgive Darren and Leanna, nor could she forgive Harper. Their friendship that had just been established waspletely shattered. Eugene looked at Henry, the principal of Juset University, and suddenly said. ¡°I. heard that this year¡¯s best performer on the SAT is in our university and she graduated from another major not long ago, right?¡± Henry nodded hurriedly and said proudly, ¡°Yes. She was enrolled here. She minored in physics and graduated exceptionally after we found she had high attainments in physics. Now she stays here as a distinguished professor of Physics Department and also studies traditional medicine. She is very hardworking.¡± While speaking. Henry felt that he was so proud, which was all thanks to Cassandra 11:24 Wed, 20 Mar Chapter 345 Eugene nodded with satisfaction. Clusia attached great importance to such excellent talents. N?velDrama.Org (C) content. 66% ¡°Could you ask her to show us around?¡± Eugene had spoken, so it must be done. Cassandra was a celebrity at Juset University and was almost known by everyone. Therefore, when people heard that Eugene wanted Cassandra to show them around, they all looked around to see if Cassandra was there. ¡°Mr. Wilson, Mr. President, and Your Majesty, Professor Yates was in Professor Kaptur¡¯s office and should be on campus at this moment,¡± a student said suddenly. When the student came out of Howard¡¯s office, he noticed that Howard was looking for Cassandra. Therefore, he guessed Cassandra must have been on campus at this time. The entrance of the university was surrounded by people. There were also many people behind, who couldn¡¯t hear what that student said, let alone Cassandra sitting beside them. Suddenly, a security guard came out of the monitoring room at the gate and said to Henry, ¡°Professor Yates is sitting on a chair in the alley in front right.¡± When Henry heard this, his eyes lit up, and he said to Eugene, ¡°Professor Yates is sitting in the chair over there. I¡¯ll go get her.¡± Eugene waved his hand, and Queen Stark smiled to hide her excitement. She suddenly said, ¡°In that case, we can walk directly over there. Let the students leave. Let¡¯s not disturb their study.¡± Leanna came there simply to see Cassandra, and nothing else mattered. Since she knew that Cassandra was still on campus, it would not be a waste of time for her. Cassandra wore headphones and listened to the work report of Magnolia Studio, so she had something to do. But she didn¡¯t know that what she hated most wasing. When they were about 65 feet away, Cassandra felt something was wrong and turned her head. The calm expression on Cassandra¡¯s face changed instantly into indifference and seriousness. She turned on the microphone and said to the other end of the meeting. ¡°Lydia, you preside over the meeting. I have something else to do.¡± 66% Chapter 315 Cassandra closed theptop, put away her earphones, and wanted to go directly with her backpack. But Henry stopped her. ¡°Professor Yates, please wait a moment.¡± Cassandra paused without any expression on her face. Leanna¡¯s step was obviously bigger, and there was some excitement on her face. Her daughter was in front of her. After such a long time, she finally saw her daughter again. Leanna wondered how Cassandra had been recently. Leanna thought Cassandra was so amazing that she got the highest grade on the SAT and was Faye Quirke, and now a distinguished professor of Juset University at such a young age. Leanna was really proud of Cassandra. Over the years, Cassandra had made herself so excellent, but as her mother, Leanna did nothing for her. Eugene also stepped forward, so when Cassandra was just stunned for two seconds, they walked in front of her. They were only a few steps away, and it would be inappropriate for them to walk further. Cassandra had no choice but to nod at Eugene and Audrey. ¡°Nice to meet you, Mr. President and Mrs. Norman.¡± Cassandra then nodded softly to Henry,pletely ignoring Leanna¡¯s family. Çú Chapter 346 Chapter 346 ¡°You are Professor Yates. You¡¯re so young.¡± Eugene couldn¡¯t help but praise Cassandra and nod with satisfaction. ¡°It¡¯s Clusia¡¯s honor to have young excellent people like you.¡± Cassandra just smiled faintly, ¡°I grew up under the protection of Clusia. I naturally want to repay my mothend.¡± Cassandra was raised by Blossom, but it was Lucas who helped Blossom live one more year. At that time, Lucas became the mayor and proved with his actions that there were many good officials in Clusia. Although Cassandra did not work for Lucas, to repay him, she worked for the National Security Bureau relying on her expertise. If it hadn¡¯t been for the support of Lucas and his family, Cassandra might not have been what she was today. Lucas and his family always supported Cassandra and served the people while they did not ask for repayment. Cassandra thought it seemed good to repay Clusia in their way. Eugene was pleased with the answer of Cassandra who did not embarrass the Clusian in front of the Queen Zosteylor. At first, Eugene thought the 18¨Cyear¨Cold girl would have stage fright and be overwhelmed. It was said that most of the straight¨CA students seldom socialized with others. They probably hadn¡¯t seen such asions before. ¡°Great. I believe you.¡± Eugene pointed to the family of three next to him and said, ¡°This is the Queen of Zosteylor, and that¡¯s the prince consort Mr. Yates. That¡¯s their son.¡± Eugene said with great interest, ¡°It seems that you are of the same year.¡± Harper wanted to speak, but he didn¡¯t know what to say. He muttered and finally stopped without saying a word. Cassandra forced a smile. Her etiquette was standard, but her tone was not as warm as when she talked to Eugene just now, and there was no emotion on her face at all. Her cold voice cooled Leanna¡¯s heart. ¡°Your Majesty, Mr. Yates, and Prince, nice to meet you.¡± Cassandra greeted them lightly without saying anything more. Henry felt that the atmosphere was weird. He found that Cassandra and Queen Stark were very simr. To avoid problems, he directly interrupted them. ¡°Professor Yates, please take Mr. President and the Queen around the school today 11-24 Wed, 20 Mar Chapter 346 as the representative of teachers and students.¡± Cassandra was speechless. ¡°Mr. Wilson, I¡­¡± When Cassandra was about to refuse, Leanna said with a smile, ¡°That¡¯s great. I feel Professor Yates is congenial and was gonna invite her.¡± +5 Cassandra said, ¡°Mr. President, Mr. Wilson, I¡¯m just a freshman and even asked for nearly 20 days off. I spent little time on campus and haven¡¯t been to many ces, so it¡¯s difficult to give you a pleasant trip. Please find another student representative.¡± She was almost certain that it was proposed by Leanna or she implied Eugene to visit Juset University. Obviously, they didn¡¯t have this schedule. There must have been some reason for them to suddenly come there. Eugene was a little unhappy. This was an excellent opportunity for Cassandra. He wondered why she rejected it so much. ¡°Mr. President, why didn¡¯t you inform us when you came to Juset University?¡± From behind Eugene, two people suddenly appeared. On was Keh, who spoke just now, and the other was Daniel Walker, Director of the National Security Bureau, Eugene turned around in surprise and saw his right¨Chand men. He proudly introduced them to Queen Stark. He pointed at Keh and said, ¡°This is Keh Zelinski, the youngestmander in Clusia. You might have met him.¡± Eugene then pointed at Daniel and said, ¡°This is Daniel Walker, Director of the National Security Bureau. I don¡¯t know if you met in Zosteylor before.¡± Material ? of N?velDrama.Org. Leanna looked at Keh indifferently and suddenly said to Eugene, ¡°I¡¯ve met Mr. Zelinski, but didn¡¯t meet Mr. Lewis.¡± Keh also had a gloomy face. Leanna¡¯s family didn¡¯t keep their word. They promised not to disturb Cassandra anymore, but they came to the university. It was not easy for Cassandra to for Cassandra to refuse just now. ¡°Your Majesty, I also studied at Juset University. Wouldn¡¯t it be better for me to guide you?¡± Keh volunteered, disrupting Queen Stark¡¯s ns. However, Eugene felt it was okay. He thought it would be better if there was a better guide. ¡°Don¡¯t bother, Mr. Zelinski. Professor Yates is nice,¡± said Leanna. Darren didn¡¯t speak for a long time. At this time, he could not help but open his 2/4 Wed, 20 Mar SS Chapter 346 mouth. ¡°Yeah, we have met Professor Yates before, and now we are kind of old friends.¡± His words instantly made Cassandra and Keh change their faces. ¡°Since Mr. Yates doesn¡¯t follow the rules, do you remember what I said?

Harper also said guiltily, ¡°Cassie, it is my fault, I want to go back here, so, don¡¯t me them.¡± Cassandra ignored them and left. Eugene was somewhat unhappy, even But after Daniel said something in his ear. Eugene immediately gave up the idea. There was nothing wrong with him except for his pale face. Cassandra didn¡¯t know how the visit ended, but they gave a speech to the university as promised. Seeing Queen Stark¡¯s speech onlineizens began to flood the screen again. [I envy the students of Juset University so much. They can see national leaders at such a close distance, but I can only see school leaders at my university.] [The Queen¡¯s ent is great.] [I want to apply to Juset University.

She hadn¡¯t uttered a single impolite word. Instead, she seemed hurt. Moreover, the things Cassandra had said were cryptic to him. They felt like a threat to Darren, and he couldn¡¯t quite grasp their meaning. Thinking of Cassandra made Keh¡¯s lips curl into a slight smirk. ¡°Cassandra is my girlfriend and future wife.¡± The president looked at him in disbelief with his eyes wide open. ¡°What did you say?!¡± ¡°Is there a problem?¡± Keh asked The president didn¡¯t know what to say, so he turned to Daniel, ¡°And why are you involved?¡± ¡°Cassie¡¯s one of National Security Bureau¡¯s people, from the information security department,¡± Daniel exined. ¡°Technically, she shouldn¡¯t be doing this job.

Daniel nodded, but Keh said, ¡°You can ask her about it yourself. I won¡¯t tell you.¡± Daniel was speechless. ¡°Then why did you even ask?¡® heined in his mind. When Cassandra came back to Pinehart Mansion, she didn¡¯t look well.

Hearing Omar¡¯s angry words, Cassandra hung up the phone and said nothing more. She waited at home for Keh¡¯s return, drifting close to sleep on the couch before Keh finally arrived.

Or to see just how good their life is after they ditched Cassandra?¡± Every time Kayden thought of that happy family of three, he felt it was so unfair to Cassandra. It was outrageous how those people lived it up abroad. When they were searching. for Faye, they were able to target Hugo immediately and take him away, yet they never made their daughter a priority. Throughout the years, Maximilian and his family¡¯s search for Cassandra was like finding a needle in a haystack. They hadn¡¯t even seen Cassandra¡¯s face when she was a child, and even the photos they had were blurry. Leanna gave Maximilian the blurry photo only for him to pinpoint Cassandra¡¯s location perfectly. It was difficult, but at least they had a photo and someone they could seek help. from. ¡°How can you speak like that? They¡¯re your uncle and aunt, not strangers.

SEND GET Chapter 348 Chapter 348 What pissed Darren off the most wasn¡¯t the fact that they had a son they paraded around in the spotlight back in Zosteylor, but that they kept an adopted child close while they dumped their own flesh and blood, Cassandra, in a hospital like she was nothing. The irony of it all was that Darren had actually believed Maximilian¡¯s words about going to find Cassandra right away. The so¨Ccalled ¡°right away¡± they mentioned only came after everyone had waited. for Thomas¡¯s surgery to be a sess. By then, the best time had already slipped away. They were all the main cause of Cassandra¡¯s tragedies over the years. He had been concerned about them, just like Maximilian had been, all these years, only to find out that they were living it up in Zosteylor without a care in the world as if they hadpletely forgotten that they even had a daughter named Cassandra. Darren¡¯s expression turned stone¨Ccold.

If it weren¡¯t for that variety show where we saw Cassie, if it weren¡¯t for her face so much like Leanna¡¯s, how would I have recognized her?¡± Maximilian said, his voice filled with passion andden with self¨Cme. ¡°Look, Dad, we had our reasons back in the day, reasons of absolute necessity,¡± Darren continued. ¡°Leanna was poisoned, and Harper was born with the poison from her womb. What was I supposed to do? I feel guilty for what happened to Chapter 348 Äú:65%²Ø Cassie. Leanna wanted to take her with us no matter what, but circumstances. wouldn¡¯t allow it. With Kam¡¯s people hunting us down and Leanna¡¯s body weakened by the poison after childbirth,¡± Darren said. He continued, ¡°Plus, Kam was close to iming the throne of Zosteylor. Leanna couldn¡¯t bear the thought of the people of Zosteylor suffering under her rule, so we rushed back to prevent it all.¡± ¡°It would be more difficult for us to leave if we took Cassie, but we had to take Harper with us in order to detoxify him,¡± Darren added. It was a dire necessity. back then, and he hoped someone would understand. He owed an apology to Cassandra, but he didn¡¯t wanna live in remorse forever. ¡°What about after he¡¯s cured?¡± ¡°Leanna and Harper were only cured of their poisoning recently,¡± Darren answered. Kayden let out a sarcastic snort. ¡°Oh, of course. The prince consort has been searching for his daughter for more than ten years with no luck, yet he found Dr. Quirke and Dr. Quirke¡¯s assistant right away. And they were even sharp enough to kidnap Hugo to leverage Cassie. Think about it, after all these happened, would Cassie want to listen to your exnation?¡± He continued fiercely, ¡°A lot of people in the dark web want to find Dr. Quirke through Hugo, but no one dares to do that because everyone in the dark web knows the importance of Hugo to Dr. Quirke, but look at you, boldly snatching him away. Do you even realize what you¡¯ve done? You¡¯ve kidnapped a family member of Cassie¡¯s.¡± É« SEND GIFT 0 Chapter 349 Chapter 349 ¡°At that time, Cassie saved the people wounded by the war in Zosteylor, but you kidnapped her family. Is it because Dr. Quirke didn¡¯t exin the rules clearly, or do you think an assistant¡¯s life is not worth the lives of the queen and the prince?¡± Kayden questioned coldly. Kayden made a mistake before. He was too obsessed with Cassandra returning to the Yates family, so he could spoil her as his cousin. In the end, he found that he waspletely wrong. Fortunately, it was not toote for him to realize it. Cassandra didn¡¯t hate him now. Although it was thanks to Keh, there were also his own efforts. Maximilian looked at Darren in disbelief. ¡°You kidnapped Hugo?¡± No wonder Cassandra had to fly to Zosteylor again after returning home even if there was a war there. It turned out that this was the reason. Darren felt a bit guilty. ¡°I¡­ I was in a hurry at that time. I didn¡¯t know Cassie was Dr. Quirke.¡± If he knew it, he wouldn¡¯t do this. He would definitely acknowledge her and exin everything that happened to her. ¡°So since you didn¡¯t know, it didn¡¯t matter if you kidnapped Hugo directly, right? If my memory serves me right, you chose your wife and son among Queen Stark, Harper, and Cassandra and abandoned Cassandra once again. Why did you go to her school as soon as you came back?¡± Kayden said sarcastically. ¡°Do you think she is just a child and won¡¯t retort you in front of the president? Let me tell you. No one can threaten her with anyone else for any special purpose unless she¡¯s willing Darren¡¯s face was somewhat darkened, with a feeling of being exposed, which made him feel ashamed. Material ? of N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Queen Stark, prince consort and Prince, since Cassie has fulfilled her promise, shouldn¡¯t it be the time for you to keep your promise instead of appearing inexplicably to disturb her? If you want to visit Clusia, just do it. Don¡¯t let your feelings get carried away.¡± Kayden felt that he had finished his words and said to Maximilian, ¡°Grandpa, I have something else to do, so I won¡¯t bother you.¡± He squinted at the three who were kneeling. Finally, he didn¡¯t say anything and left Chapter 249 directly. O Maximilian then let them get up, seeming to calm down a lot. ¡°Darren and Leanna, Cassandra doesn¡¯t owe us anything and hasn¡¯t enjoyed the family affection. She can disown us. On the contrary, my life, plus your lives, were saved by Cassandra. We owe her.¡± He looked at Darren with disappointment in his eyes. ¡°Since your have promised Cassie not to interfere with each other, then let¡¯s do it ording to this and let nature take its course.¡± Seeing that Darren and his family live a good life, Maximilian was happy and relieved, but it didn¡¯t mean that he could understand what they were doing. Darren widened his eyes. ¡°Dad, don¡¯t you even support me?¡± Denzel couldn¡¯t stand it anymore. ¡°Darren, how would you feel if you were abandoned for so many years and finally saw that your biological parents are not only healthy but also raising your sibling who was born together with you? Can you put yourself in her shoes? If not, let your son put himself in her shoes and tell you that feeling. Then you can.decide whether to continue bothering Cassie!¡± Denzel didn¡¯t know what Darren was facing when he made this decision, but it was them who caused Cassandra¡¯s tragedy. Then Darren made a decision and chose his wife and son again, so it would be impossible to me Cassandra for disowning them. Cassandra gave a lecture on behalf of Howard today, so she went to the ssroom. The ss began at ten o¡¯clock in the morning and she sat in the ssroom for a while. She was not used to it if she sat in the office. There were so many teachers in the office and everyone said a few words, which made her feel annoyed. However, yesterday¡¯s refusal to be a guide had been spread all over the campus. When Anabe saw Cassandraing in, she began to mock, ¡°Some people are so cocky that they don¡¯t take anyone seriously after bing a distinguished. professor. How dare they refuse the president¡¯s invitation?¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. What if she ruins the reputation of our school?¡± ¡°Are you silly? This kind of thing won¡¯t be exposed at all, okay? They only shoot the scene of leaders visiting the campus. That kind of episode will not be released at all.¡± ||| 5718 Chapter 349 Another girl said, ¡°Will she really not be banned for this kind of influence on the rtions between the two countries?¡± ¡°I think so. National honor is more important than anything else.¡± Sofia couldn¡¯t stand it anymore and retorted angrily, ¡°Are you insane? What the hell are you talking about? Do you all know what happened at that time? Don¡¯t you understand the simple truth of not commenting if you don¡¯t know the whole situation?¡± Everyone was instantly silent, and Cassandra just snorted without saying anything. ¡°Cassandra¡­ Don¡¯t take it to heart¡­¡± Seeing Cassandra¡¯s unhappy face, Sofia was a little worried. Then she gave a look to Cassidy and asked Cassidy to send Keh a message tofort Cassandra. But Cassidy hesitated and didn¡¯t know what to do with the business card in her hand. She was a little¡­ Cassandra noticed Cassidy¡¯s movement and said softly, ¡°You don¡¯t have to send a message to Keh. I¡¯m fine. These things can¡¯t hurt me.¡± Cassandra nced at those who were talking about her. ¡°Only people who are jealous of me would deliberately be sarcastic and suppress me. It¡¯s just that I don¡¯t buy it. ¡°You are telling the truth. Even if I am expelled, it seems to my business and has be nothing to do with you. Even if I leave this school, I¡¯m still ine. It can¡¯t be changed.¡± Her tone was not too arrogant. She was still ine. She was telling everyone that even if she left this school, she was still at the top of physics. If Clusia didn¡¯t want her, and there were plenty of people who did.. After hearing this, Cassidy immediately sent a message to Keh. She didn¡¯t know what she was thinking just now. ¡°Rather than worry about my ending, it¡¯s better to think about yourself. What can traditional medicine bring you? Why do you sit in this ss and find nothing to talk about except gossip?¡± Why on earth did this group of people learn traditional medicine and how much they wanted to learn? They were gossiping about others every day and knew everything except the. Chapter 349 knowledge in books. ¡°I think what Cassandra said is right. You should consider whether gossip or learning is more important here. If a traditional medicine practitioner takes the wrong medicine, it will be fatal. Have you all memorized their pharmacology?¡± The pharmacology professor suddenly appeared, took Cassandra¡¯s side and questioned the group of students. Those students sat in their seats in dismay, and Cassandra went to the Physics Department to give a lecture. B COMMENT Chapter 350 Chapter 350 When the ss ended, Cassandra received a message from Keh, [I was at the school gate. Let¡¯s have lunch together.] Cassandra smiled and replied, [Okay.] The students happened to see this scene. Some bold ones came up with some curiosity and asked, ¡°Professor Yates, do you have a boyfriend? Did your boyfriend. send you a message just now?¡± It should be her boyfriend. She smiled so sweetly! Cassandra nodded and said softly, ¡°Yes, it¡¯s my boyfriend.¡± There was an uproar in the corridor. ¡°Professor Yates, what does your boyfriend look like? Is he tall and handsome?¡± They didn¡¯t ask the gossipy questions as the students in the traditional medicine ss did yesterday. They only wondered what Cassandra¡¯s boyfriend looked like. Cassandra was stunned. She smiled embarrassedly and then nodded. ¡°He¡¯s quite tall.¡± This made everyone more curious, and they couldn¡¯t help holding Cassandra¡¯s hand and asking questions. Some students gossiped about her boyfriend, and some asked about today¡¯s lecture. Cassandra answered them patiently one by one. In the end, there were too many people. ¡°Everyone, hurry up to have lunch. There may be no delicious food.ter.¡± Suddenly, a tall and handsome man appeared in front of them. He gradually approached Cassandra and stood behind her. ¡°I¡¯ve ordered lunch for all of you. will be deliveredter. Thank you for your love for Professor Yates. It The appearance of Keh made everyone obsessed with him. Even some boys. felt that he was really handsome, and those boys who thought they were very handsome suddenly felt ashamed. They thought, ¡®What should I do? This man is really handsome. He¡¯s just a little more handsome than me¡® ¡°Wow, cute guy, are you Professor Yates¡¯s boyfriend?¡± a bold female student asked. Keh smiled and said in a firm voice. ¡°Yes, I¡¯m Professor Yates¡¯s boyfriend. My Chapter 350 name is Keh Zelinski.¡± Keh Zelinski? Was he the Keh they thought? ¡°Mr. Zelinski?¡± someone eximed. It also confirmed what others were thinking. They thought, ¡®Holy crap! ¡®Is Professor Yates so amazing? How could she be in love with Keh? ¡®Doesn¡¯t she know how horrible Keh was? But just now, he ordered lunch for them. He seems to be different from what the rumors say. They stood there, chatted with the students for a few minutes, and then left.

He thought, ¡®Are you sure it is a fearful expression?¡± ¡°Cassie, you¡¯re not a good girl¡­¡± With that, Keh held Cassandra in his arms and raised the partition to separate them from Yannick, who was sitting in the driver¡¯s seat. Yannick was speechless. He thought, ¡°They are still in the car. Why are they so eager to make out?¡± Of course, Yannick didn¡¯t dare to say it out. 11:13 Thu, 21 Mar G GA Chapter 350 When Omar heard that Darren and the others hade to Cassandra, he was hopping mad. These people didn¡¯t keep their promises. He just left Zosteylor but they couldn¡¯t wait toe to Cassandra! They even went to Cassandra¡¯s school. What on earth did they want? Omar followed Hugo to Whitecrane Hall these days to see if there were any good herbs. As expected, he got a lot of good stuff! ¡°Mr. all, these things are all for Ms. Yates. You¡­¡± ¡°Hers is mine. I¡¯ll tell Little Cassie about it. She won¡¯t make things difficult for you.¡± Omar really liked these medicinal herbs! Hugo was speechless. It was not about whether Cassandra would make things difficult for him or not! For the precious herbs that Cassandra wanted, Omar didn¡¯t take a fancy to the ones with more portions but those exclusive ones. Omar even took them all away, and it was not enough for Cassanidra to study new medicine! Just as they were negotiating, Scarlett suddenly came in and said, ¡°Mr. Gardner, someone is looking for you.¡± Hugo and Omar looked at each other. Someone was looking for Hugo? Who was it? Hugo waved his hand to indicate that he knew, so he temporarily stopped arguing with Omar. Omar also took advantage of this time and packed the medicinal herbs. into his bag! He would have to take all of them back and put them away properly! They were all rare treasures! After packing up everything, Omar followed Hugo to the hall. As soon as he approached, he could feel a stream of people. Whitecrane Hall was suddenly crowded today. He walked in and saw Darren¡¯s family of three standing there respectfully. Hugo¡¯s expression changed, and his originally amiable appearance became serious. ¡°Why are you here?¡± Everyone present now knew Queen Stark¡¯s family, so they were very surprised why the head of Whitecrane Hall would say such a thing. O Mar Chapter 250 ¡°Hugo, we¡¯re here to¡­¡± Darren looked around. ¡°We came to thank you and Mr. all for saving the lives of Leanna and Harper.¡± Hugo frowned. What did Darren mean? Why did hee all the way here to express his thanks? Jeremiah was there today, and he heard the noise downstairs. When he came down, he didn¡¯t expect that it would be Darren¡¯s family. What an irony! ¡°Mr. Yates, Queen Stark, what brings you here?¡± Jeremiah looked contemptuous and even rolled his eyes. ¡°We¡¯re here to thank Hugo and Mr. all,¡± Darren said with a sullen face. This was the man Cassandra saved. He had been living with her all this time. ¡°You should have done that. After such a long time of treatment, you didn¡¯t express thanks or send any gifts. Why do you reflect on it as soon as Hugo and Mr. alle back? Now you can use this reflection to increase your poprity. ¡°The Queen of Zosteylor Has Come a Long Way to Thank Her Savior¡°. Jeremiah rolled his eyes at them and said, ¡°Look, I¡¯ve thought about the title for you. I am so sweet, right?¡± Darren was speechless. ¡°You can¡¯t represent Hugo and Mr. all, so you have no right toment on behalf of them.¡± Darren¡¯s face darkened a little, and even somewhat insidious. ¡°Mr. Yates, I know what¡¯s on your mind. Is it too much to build your public personal here?¡± Jeremiah smiled wickedly, even with a trace of hatred. As Jeremiah had said, the trending topic had gone viral. ¡°The Queen of Zosteylor Has Come a Long Way to Clusia to Thank Her Savior.¡± [What? She can express her gratitude whenever she wants. It doesn¡¯t matter wherever she does it!] [What does this mean? Shouldn¡¯t it be reported on the spot?] [I also want to ask! They have gone back to Zosteylor. Why does the Queen of Zosteylor chase all the way to Clusia? Why not give them a thank¨Cyou gift in Zosteylor? Why did shee all the way here? I don¡¯t think she is going to express her gratitude. She seems to be looking for trouble!] Chapter 351 Chapter 351 [Why do you think in such a vicious way? Why do you have to maliciously guess her intention when shees to express her thanks?] [Can¡¯t we think that way? Who wille all the way to Clusia to express her. thanks? Zosteylor is peaceful now. Is there a problem sending a letter of thanks?] [I feel like she is here to pressure them rather than thank them.] [Hey, you are telling the truth!] Omar had a hot temper. Seeing that they broke their promises and dared toe to him, he could hardly suppress the anger in S heart. ¡°Darren, have you forgotten what you promised Cassandra? Do you want me to find her here and confront you face¨Cto¨Cface? Will you only be willing to stop when we release the original recording?¡± C0pyright ? 2024 N?v)(elDrama.Org. The expression on Darren¡¯s face froze. He knew that Omar was hostile to him, but after so many days, Omar should also know what kind of person he was. Why did Omar still treat him like this? Hugo couldn¡¯t bear to see anyone talking about his family, especially Cassandra and Jeremiah. He stood forward, not as domineering as Omar, but it also made people shudder. ¡°Mr. Yates, Queen Stark, you can ask Ms. Yates whether Jeremiah is qualified or not. Maybe she can give you an urate answer. ¡°Mr. Yates, when you nned to kidnap me, you had already made a choice between saving them and acknowledging Ms. Yates as your daughter. You chose the queen and the prince, so you should bear all the consequences together. ¡°It¡¯s only been a few days since they were cured. Are you going to make trouble for their savior? Did you do this because you thought that Ms. Yates was softhearted and should be bullied by you? Or did you think that you are blood¨Crted and Ms. Yates would forgive you no matter what? Didn¡¯t you think you were too much?¡± Darren¡¯s face was gloomy and his eyes were full of guilt. He knew what Hugo meant, but if he cut ties with Cassandra like this, he would really die with regret. ¡°Hugo, it was my fault for what happened in the past. I can apologize, but¡­¡± ¡°Do you want to get the best of both worlds just because your wife and son are well now?¡± Hugo snapped. This kind of person was insatiable. ||| Chapter 331 Queen Stark suddenly stood up, nodded slightly, and said in a low voice, ¡°Hugo, we feel sorry for Cassie for what we did in the past. As for the detoxification, if I had known it earlier, I wouldn¡¯t have wanted her to detoxify me even if I died. I want my daughter, not a healthy body.¡± Jeremiah snorted lightly and his face was full of sarcasm. ¡°That¡¯s easy for you to say. What did you do earlier? You¡¯re healthy now, and you start talking nonsense here. Don¡¯t you think you are funny?¡± Leanna had nothing to say. She couldn¡¯t argue with it. The facts had already existed. What should she do? What happened in Whitecrane Hall was sent to Cassandra by Scarlett. When Cassandra arrived, they were still confronting each other and a group of people were recording videos. Seeing this, Keh motioned for Yannick to take action immediately and send someone to keep order. All the photos and videos on these people¡¯s mobile phones must be erased, and those who were live¨C streaming must be forced to stop immediately. ¡°What brings the Queen and her family to Whitecrane Hall? Can¡¯t you talk about it in front of me?¡± Cassandra stepped forward, her sharp eyes seemed to be looking at her enemies, which deeply hurt Darren and Leanna. ¡°Cassie¡­¡± Leanna was a little emotional. Yannick controlled the scene and ordered these people to delete all photos and videos from their mobile phones. He was working aside, but Jeremiah took out aputer from nowhere and operated it directly to block the signals around. Whitecrane Hall. ¡°It seems that you still haven¡¯t learned what it means to behave yourself and never to see each other again.¡± Cassandra¡¯s cold eyes pierced their hearts. ¡°You are my daughter. Why should I never see you again?¡± Leanna roared,pletely regardless of her image. She just did the wrong thing. Why couldn¡¯t she be forgiven? Suddenly, Cassandra took out her phone. She clicked on something and some sounds could be heard./ ¡°Cassie, you¡¯re back.¡± ||| Chapter 351 21 Mar ¡°I¡¯m not here to catch up with you.¡± She continued, ¡°Theodore said that it was all my fault that Her Majesty is sick.

I am your father and your mother is sick. Even if we have to die, we won¡¯t disown you.¡± ¡°We never met in the past 18 years. Why do you still care about it so much? If you insist on it, Her Majesty will be dead. If you promise to leave me alone, I will stay until Her Majesty recovers.¡± ¡°I will cure Harper too. It should be enough.¡± There was another male voice. Obviously, it was Hugo. ¡°Mr. Yates, didn¡¯t you kidnap me for Dr. Quirke? She¡¯s Dr. Quirke, the legendary man in his 30s. She just pretended to be a man.¡± Keh¡¯s voice also appeared in the recording. ¡°To save Kayden, I found Dr. Quirke. At first, she disguised herself as a man in his thirties. But in the end, I found out that Dr. Quirke was just a little girl.¡± ¡°Are you really able to save Leanna?¡± ¡°Yes.¡± Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps, and another strange man¡¯s voice sounded. ¡°Sir, we must find Dr. Quirke as soon as possible. The Queen¡¯s disease will soon be incurable.¡± Finally, Darren said, ¡°Okay. It¡¯s a deal.¡± The recording stopped here, and the people who hadn¡¯t left were in an uproar. This was a deal that had been negotiated, so why did they still do this now? As the recording was ying, Leanna looked at Darren incredibly. Darren¡¯s face was darkened. ¡°Cassie, I had no choice at that time, I¡­¡± ¡°I didn¡¯t make it public when you kidnapped Hugo, but that doesn¡¯t mean I won¡¯t pursue this matter afterward.

I¡¯m not the one who got poisoned. So all the me is on me? Aren¡¯t you wrong? Tve been abandoned twice in a row, and now I have grown up. You still choose your wife. Then why are you showing your father¨Cdaughter affection here? Just because I am healthy, so I deserve it, right?¡± Cassandra turned over the table in the hall with a loud bang. She sounded emotional, and her eyes were red. ¡°It¡¯s been almost 19 years. I don¡¯t need my parents any longer. Instead of wasting feelings on me, it¡¯s better to live your life as a family of three and you will at least end up happy.¡± Darren¡¯s face turned pale. He¡­ ? SEND GIFT COMMENT Chapter 352 Chapter 352 ¡°Cassie, why don¡¯t you listen to our exnation? We really had difficulties at that time¡­¡± Darren stubbornly wanted to exin, but Cassandra refused to listen to his exnation. They had already exined. If he exined again here, he just wanted the people present to speak for him. Darren took care of Zosteylor on behalf of Leanna for so many years. He even dealt with this matter as a public rtions event. That was so typical of him. ¡°Hadn¡¯t you exined your grief to me? Did I say something wrong? Isn¡¯t that what you have exined? Or do you have a set of public rtions words and are ready to persuade this group of people to support you here, or are you going to publish it so that I have to acknowledge you under the pressure of public opinion?¡± Cassandra mercilessly exposed Darren¡¯s true purposes. Darren thought of many ways, but none of them worked for Cassandra. There was no way he could do it. He had already abandoned his daughter twice and couldn¡¯t have done it again. Therefore, he wanted to ask Cassandra for forgiveness. If it didn¡¯t work, then he used public opinion to stir up the father¨Cdaughter bond, hoping that Cassandra could be moved. But now he found that it had already backfired. ¡°Cassie, it was my fault that mom didn¡¯t detoxify the poison in time. I will spend the rest of my life making up for it. But you are my younger sister and I don¡¯t want to lose you. We are close rtives, right?¡± Harper stepped forward with his head down. As long as Cassandra looked up, she could see his guilty face and remorseful eyes ¡°No need. Theodore said it was because of me, but it has nothing to do with you.

I told you not to disturb me, or I would make her restore to what she used to be. Do you remember?¡± Cassandra looked at Leanna and saw that her face was calm as if she didn¡¯t care about returning to her previous state. This was not the reason why she came here. ||| Chapter 352 But Darren was a little nervous. He stopped in front of Leanna. ¡°Cassic, your mom has suffered for 20 years. Even if you have any grievances,e to me and I will bear them.¡± Admittedly, Darren was a good husband. For Harper, he was also a good father, but for Cassandra, he was not a good person. Cassandra snorted. Yannick had deleted all the photos and videos on everyone¡¯s phones, which could never be restored. They were organized to leave one by one, but they did not go home freely. Instead, they went to the camp or police station and arranged psychological counseling. ¡°Darren, you are not the one who gave birth to me. Since I want to go back on your word, don¡¯t me me for being ruthless!¡± The silver needle in Cassandra¡¯s hand instantly flew out and hit Leanna. Leanna let out a muffled groan. She looked at the silver needle on her body and then pulled it out calmly. Her eyes narrowed slightly with a smile on her mouth, and she fainted. ¡°Leanna, Leanna, wake up!¡± Darren widened his eyes and hurriedly caught Leanna, letting her fall in his arms. He panicked, kneeling on the ground, desperately shouting at Leanna. ¡°Mom, Mom!¡± Harper was scared out of his wits. He hurriedly squatted down and shouted at Leanna!

He would bear it all. Why did she hurt Leanna? Leanna was their biological mother, not an outsider. How could Cassandra do this to her? ¡°As I said, if you keep your promise, I can guarantee that Ms. Leanna Stark will not suffer from illness in her life. However, if you break the promise, I can poison her. Do you think I got the title of Faye for nothing?¡± Now there were only a few of them in Whitecrane Hall. The rest had been taken ???

At this moment, she didn¡¯t want anyone to get close. ra drove Keh¡¯s car all the way out of Drieso to a mountain in the suburbs where there was almost no one at night. Standing on the top of the mountain, she overlooked the whole Drieso. Even though she saw a flourishing night scene of prosperity, she couldn¡¯t help but feel lonely. Why did everyonee to remind her that she was the one who had been abandoned? The truth was the cruelest, but there were always people who analyzed the truth repeatedly and asked her to forgive them. Could she forgive them? If she did, she would feel sorry for herself and couldn¡¯t get over the barrier in her heart. In her previous life, she died at the hands of the so¨Ccalled family. Even if it didn¡¯t happen again in this life, could the harm in her previous life be erased? No way! They all asked her to be sympathetic to their difficulties. What about her? Did they ever ask how she had spent the past 18 years? No one had ever asked her whether she was happy or not and whether she had a good life or not. They all knew that they were guilty and wanted to make up for it. And the so- called ¡°makeup¡± was to acknowledge her by any means? She didn¡¯t need such kinship, did she? In November, it seemed to be 32 degrees Fahrenheit on the mountain. The wind in early winter became sharp. As the cold wind whistled through, it made Cassandra feel a slight tingling pain on her face. But for Cassandra, it was not as painful as the pain in her heart. ||| Chapter 352 Mar No matter how indifferent and ruthless she was, she couldn¡¯t bear the truth repeatedly. She could not stand it, let alone ept it. She was afraid that she would identally kill them. On the contrary, the wind on the mountain could calm her down. She just looked at Drieso quietly. Her heart gradually got cold. So did her body. Cassandra didn¡¯t know how long it was before the sky dawned. She slowly came. back to her senses. When she approached the car, she found a person standing there. When she came closer, she found that it was Keh. All her strength seemed to copse at that moment. She was all choked up, tears welled up in her eyes. Why did Keh stay behind her every time? and Keh looked at her and smiled faintly. He hurriedly took off his coat and walked towards her with it in his hands. He held her in his arms and put on the coat for her. ¡°I allow you to be willful for one night. Don¡¯t do that again. I¡¯ll be worried.¡± SEND GIFT Chapter 353 Chapter 353 Less than an hour after she arrived here, he came. The road was behind her so she didn¡¯t notice it. Yannick stopped 100 meters away and then Keh walked to her on foot. She watched the night view all night and he stared at her back all night. She needed private time so he didn¡¯t want to disturb her. Though he knew if she stayed here longer, she might catch a cold the next day, he allowed her to be willful today. Next time, he would forcibly interrupt her, stay with her, and protect her behind him without hesitation. Cassandra said in a hoarse voice, ¡°How long have you been here?¡± She didn¡¯t know what to say and there was even a little cry in her voice. Keh held her in his arms. She felt her body was very cold probably because she had been standing in the cold wind tonight. Keh tightened his grip on her, wanting to make Cassandra feel warm. He said softly, ¡°One hour after you were here.¡± There was a micro¨Cmonitor in the driver¡¯s seat to monitor everything in the car. Thanks to this monitor and the GPS, he quickly found her. When she got out of the car, nothing unexpected happened, which was something gratifying for Keh. Cassandra asked, ¡°Then why didn¡¯t you tell me?¡± She wondered if he was just standing still there if he had been there so early. Keh said, ¡°I know you need some private time so this time I gave you some private time. It won¡¯t happen again. You are my girlfriend and future wife. I will always support you. You must learn to rely on me. I am your back. Otherwise, why would I work so hard?¡± He thought, ¡®If I can¡¯t make you happy, what do I work so hard for? I have already taken revenge. Keh softlyforted Cassandra. ¡°I will allow you to be sad about this onest time. If it happens again, I can¡¯t guarantee you anything. Maybe I will send Zosteylor an express parcel, the kind that will definitely be delivered directly to ¡î 57%? Chapter Asa Queen¡¯s Pce and bomb. What do you think about it?¡± Cassandra had suffered enough so Keh wanted her future life to be sweet. He would continue to work very hard to have the supreme power so that he could protect her and she could do anything. If anyone dared to bully her, he would immediately take revenge. Cassandra couldn¡¯t helpughing. At first, she looked like she was about to cry but it instantly changed. She said, ¡°What kind of a novel gift is this?¡± Keh asked, ¡°Well, isn¡¯t it a good idea?¡± Cassandra smiled, ¡°Okay.¡± She voluntarily wrapped her arms around Keh¡¯s waist and put her head on his chest. ¡°Keh, thank you. I shouldn¡¯t have been angry about this but when it was told repeatedly, I felt a little devastated. I thought I got over it. I didn¡¯t expect that those people were still plotting against me so I was angry.¡± Cassandra felt disappointed when she was reminded of Darren¡¯s purpose. She even wanted to kill him even if it would take her own life. ¡°Well, I understand anyone will be agitated that if his secret is repeatedly told.¡± Keh gently stroked Cassandra¡¯s head and said gently, ¡°Cassie, you have to remember that from now on, I will deal with things you don¡¯t want to face. Got it?¡± Cassandra nodded. She suddenly said, ¡°Keh, let¡¯s go visit our mentor today.¡± She didn¡¯t look at Keh. Her face was still pressed against Keh¡¯s chest and she flushed slightly. Keh was overjoyed and couldn¡¯t help trembling. ¡°Okay. I will ask someone to get prepared.¡± He took Cassandra by the hand and pushed her into the passenger seat. The air conditioner in the car had been turned on so it was very warm inside. Cassandra felt it heartwarming. Keh started the car and left. ¡°Let¡¯s get back now. Susan is making hot soup and waiting for you.¡± After returning to the Pinehart Mansion, Susan hurriedly brought a hot soup out of the kitchen and asked Cassandra to have it. Cassandra ate it and then went back 57% # Chopter 153 to her room to take a hot bath. Keh rubbed Cassandra¡¯s head and said dotingly. ¡°Take a nap. I have an appointment with our mentor in the afternoon. It¡¯s still early.¡± Cassandra said, ¡°Okay, wake me up when it¡¯s about time.¡± She was indeed a little tired after all this. When Cassandra got up, it was already 5 pm. If she didn¡¯t get up, Keh might break in and wake her up. She had been sleeping for almost a day and had hardly eaten anything. Keh was even worried that she would faint in the bedroom because of hunger. Keh hurriedly dragged her to the living room. ¡°You¡¯re finally awake. Are you hungry? Have something first and we then will set off.¡± He knew if she must eat anything now. Cassandra was indeed hungry. She woke up because of hunger and she felt very happy that there were so many delicious foods to eat after she woke up. In Hugo¡¯s vi, Omar and Hugo had been sitting there waiting for him since early in the morning. What happened yesterday was a big blow for Cassandra. So, they were surprised by the message from Keh saying that she would be there with Keh. This was unexpected but they quickly epted it. It was better for Cassandra to let it go than to keep thinking about yesterday¡¯s scheme. Although Keh was decisive and ruthless, they knew he really loved. Cassandra. So, they decided to meet Keh there. However, now, there were three people sitting opposite them. They were Lucas, Sylvia, and their son Roger. Sylvia looked at Omar and said with some dissatisfaction, ¡°Mr. McCall, it doesn¡¯t make sense. Why didn¡¯t tell me that Cassie will visit you here with him? It¡¯s something very important.¡± She looked at Hugo with displeasure. ¡°And Hugo, don¡¯t forget that Cassie is under my name!¡± 11:13 Thu, 21 Mar G GA Chapter 353 N?velDrama.Org ? 2024. It would make sense if she imed to be Cassandra¡¯s guardian. However, they didn¡¯t inform her of such an important matter. She was very angry now and the consequences would be serious. She thought it must be Keh. She didn¡¯t think it was true but since her husband had said so, she believed it for the time being. When Cassandra arrived, she didn¡¯t understand the situation. After all, Keh had prepared so many gifts. She immediately understood it when she saw the Hathaways. She greeted them softly. ¡°Lucas, Sylvia.¡± Roger coughed drily and that sneered in a very low and deep voice.. Cassandra asked, ¡°Roger, what¡¯s wrong with you? Is your throat giving you pain?¡± Roger felt speechless. He thought, ¡°What was I expecting?¡± ¡°Mr. all, Hugo, Lucas, Sylvia, Roger.¡± Keh greeted them one by one and handed them their meeting gift. ¡°Nice to meet you.¡± Keh prepared different gifts for them. He chose two very rare herbs for Omar, a white jade chessboard for Hugo, a garden nning cooperation project for Lucas, a set of jewelry worth a fortune for Sylvia, and a limited¨Cedition sports car for Roger. Their gifts were prepared after careful consideration. Omar¡¯s eyes lit up when he looked at the rare herbs. said, ¡°You¡¯ve got something. You have a thorough understanding of our preferences.¡± ***** SEND GIFT ? 0 COMMENT Chapter 354 Chapter 354 When Omar was ready to study these precious herbs, Cassandra snatched them. away from him. She looked at them curiously and then turned to Keh. ¡°Why didn¡¯t you give me this kind of good stuff?¡± Omar was shocked. He thought, ¡®Am I really her mentor?¡® Keh rubbed her head affectionately and said softly, ¡°How can I not leave some for you? You can see itter.¡± Cassandra¡¯s eyes lit up. She didn¡¯t expect that he could give some to her after she just asked him about it so tentatively.. Omar looked at Keh and said, ¡°You have more? Why did you just me so little? Send me more next time.¡± When Cassandra heard this, she was upset. ¡°They are all mine. ¡°If you want to get my herbs, I¡¯ll take away all the herbs in that shabby house of yours!¡± Omar¡¯s eyes widened and he couldn¡¯t say anything for a long time. He thought Cassandra was like an evil! He desperately wanted someone to teach her a lesson. Lucas suddenly asked, interrupting their conversation, ¡°Mr. Zelinski, I heard that Cassie¡¯s biological parents are back. What are you going to do with them?¡± Keh suddenly said seriously, ¡°Well, Queen Stark and Darren Yates. As long as Cassie doesn¡¯t want them, they are nothing.¡± He would say yes to whatever Cassandra approved of. He didn¡¯t do it yesterday because Cassandra did not want that. Cassandra was the most important person for him. As long as they were still on this, he would. make their life miserable. Lucas was a little surprised. He knew Darren and he was in deeply love in love with his wife back then but Lucas had locked himself up in his house for promotion. ? 11:13 Thu, 21 Mar G GA Chapter 354 So, Lucas didn¡¯t ever see Darren¡¯s wife. He only knew that she was as beautiful as a fairy. When he finished everything that he had to do, Darren disappeared. And now it was the first time after that he heard anything about Darren. Lucas was a little angry and even wanted to have a fight with them. ¡°What do they want?¡± He thought they were ridiculous. However, when he suddenly saw Cassandra¡¯s upset face, he realized that it was not the time to talk about this. He immediately changed his mind and said, ¡°Make them go back wherever they came from. Cassie is now a part of the Hathaway family. None of them can change it!¡± Jeremiah suddenly came downstairs. He said yfully, ¡± Lucas, you said we were a family!¡± Lucas said nothing. He wondered why Jeremiah hadn¡¯t forgotten it. He said, ¡°Yes. But it makes you the sixth member of the family. So, you¡¯re Cassie¡¯s younger brother?¡± Jeremiah¡¯s eyes widened and he didn¡¯t believe what Lucas just said. ¡°No! I am her elder brother!¡± Jeremiah shook Sylvia¡¯s arm yfully. ¡°Please, Sylvia.¡± Sylvia felt dizzy being shaken by Jeremiah. ¡°Enough. I am dizzy.¡± Sylvia patted on Jeremiah¡¯s hand. ¡°Lucas is just kidding. We have agreed on it. We are a family.¡± Jeremiah was reminded of it. He said, ¡°So, Cassie is still my sister?¡± Sylvia said, ¡°Yes, we are a family.¡± Jeremiah smiled brightly. The thing that he wanted most was to be Cassandra¡¯s elder brother. Now, his dream finally came true. He let go of Sylvia and walked to Cassandra. He patted her head. ¡°ine, you should introduce me as your brother from now on!¡± Cassandra was speechless. They got to know each other more today. They had long known Keh¡¯s attitude. Chapter 351 so today was just like a useless formal procedure. But in case anyone else would covet Cassandra, Keh said, ¡°I want our engagement party to be on Cassie¡¯s 19th birthday and when she turns 20, we will have a wedding.¡± If possible, he even wanted to officially change Cassandra¡¯s age and marry her right now. Omar is the first to say no. ¡°I don¡¯t agree with it!¡± As soon as he said these, he felt he was being red at by two pairs of eyes. He swallowed hard unconsciously and said, ¡°Cassie is still young. You two should enjoy more days like this. It¡¯s not toote for you to get engaged at 20 and get married at 25. 25. Keh was speechless. So was Cassandra. Lucas also politely refused it. ¡°Let¡¯s talk about itter. Don¡¯t worry. You two have just started to date. Enjoy dating for a while.¡± Keh was not angry. He understood them and he decided to prove that Cassandra didn¡¯t pick the wrong person with his actions. It was around 10 p.m. After visiting Omar, Keh and Cassandra went straight home. After Cassandra fell asleep, Keh¡¯s expression changed and he immediately looked brutal. He drove straight out. In the Underground League, Keh was the most powerful man. It was a ce where people gambled with their life. No one knew whether tomorrow or a deadly ident woulde first. Here, everyone was a desperate gambler. Keh had the Underground League before joining the Falcon Special Operations Force. Because he needed protection, Yannick went with him. He defended the country while killing people brutally at the same time. Ethan and Lamont had been waiting for him. They greeted him. ¡°Mr. Lamont.¡± N?velDrama.Org ? 2024. | Chapter 34 Keh nodded. They asked, ¡°We have brought you the people you wanted to see. Do you want to talk to him now or¡­. Keh walked away. ¡°Let¡¯s go.¡± Soon, he saw down on the viewing tform on the second floor, under which was a fully protected stage. More precisely, it was an indoor Colosseum. After a duel between a person and an animal, only one of them would survive. Today was not the time for performances originally. But to entertain Keh, the guest here, a few matches would happen. The audience on the first floor was noisy, urging the show to start but they did not dare to get it started without Lamont¡¯s permission. Soon, the people whom Keh wanted to see arrived with Ethan. They were Darren and Harper. As soon as Darren saw Keh, his heart jolted. He looked at Keh vigntly and unconsciously got closer to Harper. He thought if Keh was still angry, he would protect Harper. Harper was still young and he shouldn¡¯t have to deal with this kind of thing. Darren said, ¡°Keh, why did you take us here? Don¡¯t you know that Leanna has been in aa?¡± Not knowing what Cassandra injected into Leanna, Whitecrane Hall refused to give her treatment. He had no choice but to send her to the best hospital in Drieso. However, after a lot of examinations, the doctor only knew Leanna was poisoned. Leanna hadn¡¯t woken up yet. Now Darren wondered why Keh brought them. here and what he wanted to do. Keh picked up the red wine on the table and shook it gracefully. ¡°Ms. Leanna Stark¡¯sa has something to do with me?¡± The blood¨Cred wine hung on the ss which looked very beautiful. He asked, ¡°Who is to me for all this?¡± Chapter 355 Chapter 355 Keh thought, ¡®Don¡¯t they know why Leanna is in aa? You broke the rules of the game yourself? Now you¡¯re regretting it? N?velDrama.Org (C) content. ¡°Toote. Darren asked coldly, ¡°Keh, Mr. Zelinski, why do you want us here?¡± Harper asked coldly, ¡°Keh, does Cassie know you kidnapped us and brought. us here?¡± Although he didn¡¯t know where this ce was, he could feel that Keh did not want to tell Cassandra about this. Keh smiled sarcastically, ¡°So what? What difference does it make?¡± ¡°Darren, since you don¡¯t really want to treat her like your daughter, why are you acting so hypocritical?¡± Keh got up and walked to Darren. ¡°You¡¯re too old to do such a nasty thing. Aren¡¯t you afraid that it will ruin your reputation?¡± Darren said, ¡°Keh, you have no right to pick on me. You don¡¯t have a daughter and you can¡¯t understand what I was thinking. Do you think I didn¡¯t struggle when I made this decision?¡± He thought nobody understood him. He loved his daughter very much. When she was born, he kept carrying her in his arms and couldn¡¯t let go of her. However, his son was born with poison so he must do something about it. Leanna was also poisoned and she was weak after childbirth. The probability that they would escape was very low. Escaping with two children was almost impossible. Did he really want to abandon his daughter? He didn¡¯t want to abandon her even if he had to risk his life. But at that time, what else could he do? He was afraid that the four of them would all die. Zosteylor was still in danger. Even if Leanna died at that time, sha regrets. would die with Cassandra¡¯s daughter was healthy. Even if she ended up being someone else¡¯s daughter, she would be kindly treated for the sake of her beauty. He didn¡¯t expect that his decision would hurt Cassandra so much. Keh said mercilessly, ¡°I really can¡¯t understand it. If you can¡¯t even protect your family, how can you talk about running a country? You just made an excuse for your weakness.¡± Chunter 355 Darren looked gloomy. ¡°Mr. Zelinski, if you just want to talk about this, there should be no need to continue. Can we go now?¡± Keh said, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, watch the show with me. You can leave after the show. It won¡¯t be toote.¡± After saying that, he sat back in his seat and raised his hand to Ethan. Darren and Harper were confused. They didn¡¯t want any shows, they just wanted to leave. Leanna was still in aa and Cassandra refused to forgive them. Unexpectedly, the lights on the stage were turned on and the spotlight shone on the middle of the stage. It was a wonderful opening. The host said the show would soon begin and walked offstage immediately to return to a safe ce. A thin about eighteen¨Cyear¨Cold boy and opposite him, was a tiger, probably weighing hundreds of pounds. He had to defeat the tiger to win and walk offstage. If not, he could be eaten by the tiger one bite after one bite. The match began and the tiger chased after its prey. The boy ran around the stage. His feet kicked higher and higher and finally rode on the tiger. Every moment was amazing, bloody, and violent. Harper¡¯s eyes were wide open. Looking at what happened onstage, he could obviously feel that the boy was exhausted. Just as the tiger was about to get closer to enjoy its prey, the boy rolled over and inserted a knife into the tiger. The tiger was in pain and went mad at the boy. Finally, the boy stopped struggling and became the tiger¡¯s meal. After watching the whole process, Darren and Harper felt sick. Harper looked gloomy. ¡°Keh, what do you mean?¡± Keh said, ¡°I just invited you to the show.¡± His face turned cold and he asked, ¡°Do you know who that boy was?¡± Darren and Harper kept silent. How could they know? Keh exined expressionlessly, ¡°He was abandoned by his parents right after he was born. The orphanage didn¡¯t want him because he ate too much so they kicked him out. They burned houses, killed people, and robbed people. Everyone. hated him and wanted to beat him up and the police are hunting him. ¡°He has lived in the dark ce for a long time. Today, he volunteered to fight with 11:14 Thu, 21 Mar G G Chanter 355 the tiger because he didn¡¯t want to live anymore. He was disliked wherever. People all thought he was a scumbag so he had no motivation to live anymore. To save the people of the alliance from trouble, he chose this way.¡± The boy had ended up in the tiger¡¯s belly and there was not even a tooth left. This scene made everyone sick and the audience immediately left. Darren¡¯s face was pale. He turned his head unnaturally away from Keh. Keh said, ¡°He is a very healthy boy. In the only photo of him in the welfare home, he looked quite adorable, at least better than half of his peers. He is also obedient in the welfare home but he still chose this way of life. Mr. Yates, what do you think is the reason?¡± Darren couldn¡¯t stand it anymore and became very angry. ¡°Keh! What exactly do you want to tell us?¡± ¡°Nothing. It¡¯s just an example for you, Mr. Yates. Whatever you thought was right was nothing but shit. The truth is not like that¡± Keh walked toward Darren and forced him to step back. ¡°If Cassie had been in this situation, what do you think would happen? If she hadn¡¯t met Blossom, do you think she would have had a peaceful childhood? ¡°When Cassie was 10 years old, she didn¡¯t even have any decent or new clothes. All her clothes were worn out and mended. The vigers said her smile was beautiful and infectious, which made people unconsciously happy too. But Blossom was sick so she did not smile anymore. You didn¡¯t do anything during her childhood. But you hurt her again and again. Who do you think you are? ¡°I made a lot of effort to make her rely on me and be open to me. It¡¯s all because of you that she closed her heart again. How dare you ask for her forgiveness?¡± Bang! Keh punched Darren in the face. Darren lost his bnce and fell to the ground, covering his face. When Harper realized what was happening, it was toote. He hurriedly stepped. forward to help his father stand up. ¡°Dad, are you okay?¡± Darren shouted, ¡°Keh, why did you punch me?¡± Keh said, ¡°Well, if you weren¡¯t on Clusia¡¯s territory, I would kill both of you right now.¡± Keh did want to kill him. However, they were important guests of this country. If they died here, Clusia had to find a reasonable exnation. 0 Chapter 355 To avoid a series of troubles, he had to spare them now. Harper screamed, ¡°You!¡± ¡°Harper, I¡¯m okay.¡± Darren stood up, covering his face, and turned to his son. ¡°I deserve it.¡± Darren looked more determined. ¡°Keh, I deserve this punch but I won¡¯t give up on Cassie.¡± Keh¡¯s expression changed.

Darren said, ¡°As long as Cassie doesn¡¯t want you to be her father, you can¡¯t get close to her!¡± Darren said in a deep voice, ¡°You¡­ does Cassie know you are so cruel?¡± He didn¡¯t believe that Cassie would still be with Keh if she knew Keh was such a cruel person.

Darren and Harper smiled, ¡°Since they insist on it as always, let¡¯s send them to an amazing ce.¡± Lamont asked respectfully, ¡°Sir, where should we send them?¡± Keh thought for a while and said softly, ¡°Our friends in the snake pit haven¡¯t had any ymates for a long time.

He stopped at the door of Cassandra¡¯s room for a while before returning to his room. He thought, ¡®Cassie, don¡¯t be afraid. I will always be by your side. You are my hope. How can I not protect you?¡± He returned to his room, took off his clothes, and took a long shower to wash off the bloody smell. After making sure he didn¡¯t smell blood, he walked out of the bathroom, satisfied. Lying in bed, awake, he seemed to be thinking about something. Sometimes, he chuckled and sometimes he frowned.. ***** After William and Susan got up in the morning, they found Keh already busy in the kitchen. They trembled at the door of the kitchen and Keh could even see their bodies shaking. They thought, ¡®Why is he making breakfast by himself? Is it because he thinks the breakfast we usually made is awful?¡® The cook in charge of breakfast was also scared to death. When Cassandra got up, she looked at the door of the kitchen in confusion. ¡°Susan, why are you all here?¡± She stuck her head out behind the door curiously and saw Keh cooking breakfast so she instantly grinned. Cassandra must have sensed their uneasiness. Sheforted them. ¡°Susan, don¡¯t worry. Keh is making breakfast for me. It¡¯s fine.¡± The chef asked cautiously, /Ms. Yates, you don¡¯t like the food I cooked?¡± Cassandra shook her head and said, ¡°No. He always cooked for me.

John asked, ¡°Mr. President, may I ask why you want us here?¡± He had the highest rank among these people so he should speak first. The President nodded. ¡°Because of a couple of matters. ¡°The first is about Darren, the prince consort in Zosteylor. Is he from the Yates. family? ¡°Secondly, Queen Stark passed out for no reason after she went to Whitecrane. Hall. The doctor said she was poisoned. I hope you can give me an exnation. ¡°Thirdly,st night, the prince consort Darren and Prince Harper were frightened and even a little out of their minds. ¡°Fourthly, what exactly is the rtionship between Cassandra and Queen Stark of Zosteylor?¡± This kind of leader was people¡¯s favorite, the kind that asked all his questions directly at one time and his subordinates only needed to answer his questions. Almost all the questions were rted to Leanna. Kayden nodded slightly. ¡°Mr. President, the prince consort Darren is indeed my uncle who had been missing for nearly 20 years. As for the fact that his wife is the queen, my family and I just found it too.¡± The president asked softly, ¡°Didn¡¯t you see him when you were on the mission in Zosteylor?¡± Kayden shook his head. ¡°No, I was there with Mr. Walker to negotiate with Kam.¡± The president continued, ¡°What about the other questions?¡± Cassandra said softly, ¡°Mr. President, Whitecrane Hall belongs to me. Queen Stark was making trouble for us. As for the poison, it¡¯s nonsense. It never happened. It was just the kind of medicine that would make her keep sleeping for a few days. 0 11:14 Thu, 21 Mar G Chapter 356 She will wake up in a few days.¡± The amount of poison was very small. It would take at least half a month to make someone to die with this poison. Therefore, with only once or twice intake of it, she wouldn¡¯t be hurt at all. The doctor was right about the poison, but they couldn¡¯t find out what it was exactly. The President asked, ¡°Really?¡± Cassandra said, ¡°It¡¯s true. Dr. Quirke¡¯s mentor was also in Whitecrane Hall. He could tell it at a nce but he didn¡¯t do anything because he knew it.¡± It was simply bullshit. Keh answered the third question. ¡°It¡¯s a big deal that the prince and the prince consort were frightened. A thorough investigation is needed.¡± The president nodded. ¡°I asked you toe here because I wanted you to investigate. This requires the cooperation of many parties and we must give everyone a decent solution to make them shut up, okay?¡± Keh nodded slightly, ¡°Sure.¡± ¡°Well, I¡¯ll leave it to you.¡± The president turned to Cassandra and said, ¡°Cassandra, what¡¯s your rtionship with them?¡± Cassandra answered straightforwardly, ¡°Nothing, not now, and won¡¯t be.¡± The president said, ¡°But I heard that you were the daughter of Queen Stark and twins with the prince¡­¡± He seemed to have felt the frightening eyes in front of him, which was a little creepy.

After all, she had met the Yates family and Leanna long ago. ording to Daniel, they should have met after Zosteylor¡¯s Evacuation Operation and Hugo was kidnapped. But they hadn¡¯t officially announced it, which proved that she really did not want to do it. As for the reason, the President thought it was her own business. The President said, ¡°As for why the prince consort and the prince were frightened, you must find it out. I want to know every detail about it.¡± They had to obey all of the President¡¯s orders. However, Keh was calm as if he wasn¡¯t the one who did that. He was not worried about whether this matter would be exposed. They answered it one by one, ¡°Yes, sir.¡± Then the President asked Cassandra to stay away from the investigation. It was because of her mysterious rtionship with Leanna and her family.

Cassandra didn¡¯t care. She didn¡¯t want to participate in anything rted to them. She wanted to stay away from it, waiting to watch a show.

Darren hurt Cassandra so he took revenge for her. Although Kayden knew he shouldn¡¯t gloat over it, what Darren did was seriously wrong. He took the marriage as a public rtion event and tried to use public opinion to press Cassandra into submission. He had to admit it was doomed to failure. Cassandra became more curious. She looked at Keh in confusion. ¡°Aren¡¯t Darren and Harper still in Drieso? So, there are people keeping snakes in this city?¡± She thought it might even be one of those huge snakes. She wondered if it was Darren¡¯s enemy who was taking revenge. Keh replied, ¡°Maybe.¡± Seeing that Keh didn¡¯t intend to tell Cassandra the truth, Kayden asked curiously, ¡°Cassie, aren¡¯t you curious about who did it?¡± Cassandra said indifferently, ¡°I¡¯m curious.

Cassandra said without hesitation, ¡°Then I will invite him to a grand dinner and thank him.¡± She said it firmly without any disdain.. Only then did Keh¡¯s face soften a little.

She couldn¡¯t think of anyone else except Keh. Keh admitted it calmly without any intention to hide it. ¡°Yes.¡± Cassandra was slightly stunned.

However, when she woke up, she found her husband and son different. They were lying next to her on the hospital bed, on intravenous drip. She was a bit worried. Except for dizziness, she didn¡¯t feel anything else. When she was about to get out of bed, a nurse stopped her. The nurse patiently said, ¡°Your Majesty, you can¡¯t get out of bed now. You need rest.¡± Leanna asked worriedly, ¡°I want to see my husband and son. What¡¯s going on with them?¡± The nurse nced at the two men on the other two beds and suddenly understood it. ¡°Nothing. They were just a little frightened and emotionally unstable. When they wake up after the intravenous drip is finished and cooperate with the investigation, the psychological consultant will be here and make them forget it.¡± The two men were scared into this horrible state for a mysterious reason. No one heard of a brutal beast kept in Drieso. People who didn¡¯t know the truth thought they had gone to the remote mountains and been bitten by a fierce beast and then they were scared out of their minds. Leanna said angrily, ¡°That¡¯s too much! Didn¡¯t the President do anything about it? Shouldn¡¯t he at least give me an exnation?¡±N?velDrama.Org (C) content. She looked at the two people on the hospital bed and felt distressed. They were the most important people to her. Now, they were lying there unconsciously.

The nurse said, ¡°Your Highness, you have to ask the President about it. I can¡¯t ask it for him. My responsibility is to take care of you guys. If there is anything else you want, ask me and I will take care of it.¡± The nurse nced at her indifferently and she just couldn¡¯t like them somehow. She didn¡¯t even know why.

She was surprised that she was poisoned. She knew it was probably Cassandra who poisoned her and wondered if Cassandra really was not going to forgive them. The doctor left after giving her a brief examination. She got out of bed and walked between Darren and Harper¡¯s beds. She looked at her husband and then turned to her son. She thought, ¡®Did I really do it wrong? ¡®She¡¯s my daughter anyway, isn¡¯t she? ¡®But, why did end up like this? ¡®Darren made this decision for me. Will Cassandra¡¯s hatred disappear only if I disappear first?¡± Two hourster, not long after Darren and Harper finished the intravenous drip, both of them woke up. Now they felt still a little bit frightened, but they were much better. Leanna was so excited and happy that she even wanted to cry. ¡°Darren, Harper, you wake up.

It¡¯s not fatal. I¡¯m fine.¡± Leanna said worriedly, ¡°How are you feeling now? Who on earth did this to you?¡± Darren didn¡¯t want to recall what happened that night.

Then he threw us into a snake pit and we stayed there for two hours.¡± Leanna was shocked. She thought, ¡®Keh! Is he crazy? ¡®What good would it do him?¡® She softlyforted her husband and son. The person whom Keh sent there Chapter 358 Mar to record their statements soon arrived. Then they were told that a psychologist was here. It was Ethan. When he helped Darren, he wore a mask. Therefore, Darren just thought the marr in front of him looked familiar but he couldn¡¯t remember anything. Ethan told Leanna that the psychological therapy could not be disturbed. It wouldst for four hours and when it was over, they would get some rest directly and then they would forget those horrible things after they woke up. Leanna was a little worried but she couldn¡¯t do anything about it since the psythologist had said so. Then she walked out of the ward. There was still so much time before the therapy was finished so she thought she should go get even with someone. As long as she was reminded that Keh had done this kind of thing, she would think Cassandra had instigated it. She was so angry that she wanted to revenge on Cassandra. Even though Cassandra was her daughter, she thought revenge had gone too far. Darren was her father and Harper was her brother. Leanna didn¡¯t understand why she did so. Leanna asked her men to investigate Cassandra¡¯s whereabouts, ready to go to find. her without getting permission from the President, which would be no good for it. ***** At the school gate, Cassandra was about to go home after finishing thest ss for Howard. Suddenly, three cars appeared in front of her and bodyguards got off. A middle¨Caged woman walked out of one car. Cassandra took a closer look and saw Leanna.

Cassandra looked into Leanna¡¯s eyes, raised her hand, and quickly pped her too. Leanna was surprised. The bodyguards beside her wanted to control Cassandra but they were all frightened by Cassandra¡¯s eyes. Leanna shook her hand at the bodyguard and said, ¡°Cassie, you pped me! Do you also want to kill me?¡± Cassandra said, ¡°Didn¡¯t you start it? You pped me for no reason. Do I owe you anything?¡± She was never polite to this kind of person. Cassandra thought, ¡®She has no right to p me. She even takes it for granted. I would like to know how firm she is about this!¡® Leanna was really heartbroken, with tears in her eyes. ¡°Shouldn¡¯t I p you? You instigated Keh to kill your father and brother. Why are you like this? It was our fault and I didn¡¯te back to find you. I can make up for all my mistakes. Why did you ask Keh to hurt them? Don¡¯t you have a guilty conscience?¡± Cassandra smiled sarcastically and looked at Leanna contemptuously. ¡°Ms. Leanna Stark, if you have persecutory delusions, please go to the hospital to get treated. No one wants to hurt you but I can¡¯t help but let you go back to your previous state if you show up in front of me ever again.¡± She shrugged slightly and said, ¡°I don¡¯t have parents.

No matter how you change or how much you hate me, I am your mother and you are my daughter.¡± After Darren was frightened by the snake, she had figured it out. Instead of spending time more time expecting Cassandra to recognize them, it would be better to force her to admit it. She thought Cassandra had been badly educated. She couldn¡¯t believe that her daughter hurt her husband like this and didn¡¯t want to imagine what could happen in the future. She didn¡¯t care about her own life. But Darren had suffered a lot after he was in love with her so she couldn¡¯t let him be hurt again. N?velDrama.Org ? 2024. She decided to make this thing develop ording to her wishes.

She wondered if there something wrong with her brain after she fainted. Leanna said, ¡°You have to admit the fact. You are my daughter and there is no doubt about that. You asked Keh to hurt your father and brother. I won¡¯t let you get away with it. I will hold Keh ountable. You¡¯d better break up with him, otherwise, I will force you to do it!¡± She couldn¡¯t stand that her daughter was being badly influenced by someone like Keh! Cassandra roared inwardly, ¡®No way!¡± Cassandra looked extremely disgusted, showing her disgust for Leanna vividly. ¡°Leanna, you can¡¯t decide my life. You have no right to do so!¡± She stressed word of thest sentence and sounded determined. every Cassandra snorted coldly, ¡°As for holding Keh ountable?¡± She remembered ||| Chapter 359 that Ethan had gone with him and they were a bunch of idiots. She sneered, ¡°Show me evidence. Do you have any evidence that Ken did this to him? You can¡¯t find the evidence? Are you trying to start a war between the two countries by Zosteylor by framing the chief of Clusia¡¯s army?¡± Leanna was determined to find out the truth. ¡°Who tells you I don¡¯t have evidence? I will find it!¡± She believed what Darren said. This must have something to do with Keh so Clusia must give her an exnation. She left angrily. She came here fast and also left fast.

Think about if you can really find anything and consider if you can afford the consequences of framing him.¡± What Cassandra didn¡¯t expect was that Twitter was almost paralyzed because of a shocking post in a short time. Leanna registered a Twitter ount and directly imed that she was the Queen of Zosteylor. She sent the first Twitter message with this officially verified ount. Leanna: [Hello everyone, I¡¯m Leanna, Queen of Zosteylor. I am also the wife of the eldest son of the Yates family. My husband¡¯s name is Darren Yates and my son¡¯s name is Harper Yates.

What else can we ask for?] [Can you stop showing off your smartness?] [I¡¯m the only one who wants to ask why her son is with her but her daughter is not. Why couldn¡¯t she take her daughter while with her son? Honestly, I don¡¯t understand it.] [What a coincidence! I don¡¯t understand it too!] [Why didn¡¯t Cassandra ept them since the queen had already found her? She would be a princess. No one can be more noble than that!] [That depends on Cassandra! Queen Stark herself said that Cassandra was excellent. She never saw her family in the past 19 years. What could she think about it when they suddenly show up?] [I support the queen! @Samantha (Cassandra), your mother is here!] ( [Me, too. Parents all want the best for their kids. Don¡¯t overthink it since they were forced to do it!] [Don¡¯t at Samantha? It¡¯s so funny. Your words will not make what Cassandra has suffered disappear.

When Cassandra arrived home, the maids looked at her strangely and even dodged eye contact with her. Cassandra walked to them and asked coldly in confusion, ¡°Am I so scary?¡± A maid shook her head in fright and said, ¡°Ms. Yates, we didn¡¯t mean that.

She thought, ¡°What the hell does she want? ¡®How dare she try to use public opinion to force me to do it by making our rtionship public? ¡®Do they really think I deserve to be bullied?¡® Suddenly, she saw a message from Keh asking her to wait for him at home and he would handle this thing. But she didn¡¯t depend on anyone and she could handle this thing on her own. Therefore, although she couldn¡¯t remember the password of her Twitter ount, it was a piece of cake to hack it. It was better to respond to it directly than to cover up and remove all the hashtags. Soon, she sent a post on Twitter.

She was an orphan. After her grandmother who adopted her died, she was even more lonely. When she returned to the so¨Ccalled Yates Group, she was bullied by Yulissa and her brothers.

When Keh got home, he saw a notification from Twitter popping up as soon as he stopped the car. ¡°Get away from me¡± was very eye¨Ccatching. He grinned. he knew it was what she would do.

Keh greeted her softly, afraid that he would be too loud and disturb her, ¡°Cassie, I¡¯m back.¡± However, the response he got was her silence. He knew she was busy and had to concentrate so he sat down next to her and quietly waited for her.

I don¡¯t intend to do anything for now.¡± What was going on Twitter was just a matter of public opinion and what really needed to be addressed was Leanna. Suddenly, Keh found something weird on Cassandra¡¯s face. One side of her face was red and swollen. He looked bad and he asked coldly, ¡°Who pped you?¡± Cassandra was stunned. She touched her face in surprise and said carelessly, ¡°Leanna found me and pped me today for Darren and Harper. She said I asked you to do that to them.¡± After she came back home/she simply washed her face and began to deal with her work. The reason why Leanna did so was that she wasn¡¯t busy because she seemed to be favored by God. She thought so because there were people behind her.

But Leanna, who abandoned Cassandra, pped her. He thought they were punished too little. Otherwise, she wouldn¡¯t have dared to do that. Cassandra didn¡¯t like violence. She said, ¡°No need. Instead of fighting back, it¡¯s better to get down her supporter.¡± She would only fight back if someone attacked her first. She knew very well how important a person¡¯s backers were. People would only feel confident if they got strong backers. Yulissa and Leanna were examples. Theodore and Vincent were Leanna¡¯s backers. Their assets ounted for one¨Cthird of Zosteylor¡¯s GDP. So, without them, Zosteylor¡¯s economics would go back a few years. A queen who had run Zosteylor for 20 years was eventually overturned. Isn¡¯t it a good story? Hearing Cassandra¡¯s words, Keh knew what she was going to do. He smiled softly, ¡°Cassie, you¡¯re good.¡± Cassandra raised her eyebrow, When Leanna read Cassandra¡¯s response in the hospital, she was more furious. The feeling of regret just now was instantly gone. Leanna murmured to herself in distress, ¡®Cassie, don¡¯t you really know how much I care about you? You can¡¯t make another mistake. All she could hear was the sound of breathing of Darren and Harper, who had fallen asleep after therapy. [It doesn¡¯t matter if Cassie is unwilling to ept me. I will continue to put effort into it until she does it.

He also received a lot of calls from Maximilian but he didn¡¯t answer any of them. He just opened Twitter and checked what Leanna had posted. The more he read it, the deeper was his frown. He could understand why Leanna wanted to send this tweet because he thought about doing so too but this would push Cassie to face public opinion, which was why he didn¡¯t do it.

How could she do this to her own vn father?¡± Maximilian didn¡¯t believe a word of hers. ¡°Then tell me what she asked Keh to do.¡± Leanna said, ¡°She asked Keh to scare Darren so he threw them into a snake pit.¡± Maximilian frowned and scolded coldly, ¡°What are you talking about?¡± Leanna said, ¡°I¡¯m not talking nonsense. You can ask Darren if you don¡¯t believe me.¡± Although they had received psychotherapy, she thought they must remember a little bit of it. Unexpectedly, Darren was confused. He stared at Leanna with wide eyes and asked, ¡°When did it happen? Why don¡¯t I know?¡± Leanna thought, ¡®Didn¡¯t he experience it himself? Why did he remember nothing?¡± Leanna looked at him in disbelief and said, ¡°How is that possible? You and Harper were frightened! You told it to me yourself!¡± Darren was a little confused. He didn¡¯t remember it at all. He wondered how could this kind of thing happen. Maximilian said, ¡°Enough. If you want an excuse, find a better one. Do you think I will believe such a clumsy one?¡± Maximilian was very disappointed. ¡°When Keh wants to attack someone, he is open and aboveboard. He won¡¯t y dirty tricks. Abetted by Cassie? Do you think Keh is stupid? Or do you think that Cassie is not capable of handling you herself?¡± Maximilian was a little emotional and couldn¡¯t help coughing violently.. Leanna said, ¡°Dad, I¡¯m telling you the truth. It was because of this that I went to Cassie and pped her.¡± 5158 Chapter 362 Leanna said thest three words in a very low voice but everyone else heard her. Maximilian raised his voice. ¡°What? You pped Cassie?¡± His son and daughter¨Cinw, who were behind him, also looked bewildered. Yasmine couldn¡¯t help but say, ¡°Leanna, you have never raised Cassie. Do you think she will still treat you as her mother after you pped her?¡± Cassandra was soft¨Chearted but she would never be forced to do anything. As long as people didn¡¯t push her, she would be nice. Yasmine and her sister¨Cinw had realized their mistakes. If they left Cassandra alone for a while and asked her out when there was a better chance and didn¡¯t bring up anything about the Yates family, things would probably change. But this p directly ruined everything. Whether it was true, Leanna didn¡¯t listen to Cassandra before pping her. Yasmine thought, ¡®Leanna deserved Cassie¡¯s response.¡® She said, ¡°You didn¡¯t even ask her any questions. Is that how you treat your daughter? You never raised her. How dare you p her? ¡°Even if Keh did it, it had nothing to do with her. Just because she and. Keh are boyfriend and girlfriend, you think you¡¯re right to me it on her?¡± Maximilian felt a little short of breath and he wanted to p Leanna and Darren. Leanna wanted to exin it but she felt helpless. ¡°Dad, I¡¯m not¡­¡± Darren wanted to exin for his wife so he said, ¡°Dad, Leanna is not an impulsive person. Cassie must have done something that made her¡­¡± He believed she did not do it impulsively. Maximilian said, ¡°Subconsciously, you think it is Cassie¡¯s bad. What will Cassie do to you? Why do you want her back if you don¡¯t believe her? Why not just go back home and stick with your sons?¡± He never thought his son and daughter¨Cinw, whom he had been waiting for 20 years, would be like this. If someone¡¯s parents didn¡¯t believe him, who else would believe him? If they thought she was wrong, why did they keep pushing her? What was the difference between her and a stranger to them? Fri, 22 Mar Chapter 362 Maximilian closed his eyes in disappointment, not wanting to see them again. ¡°You can leave now. Don¡¯t show up here again. The Yates family has nothing to do with you.¡± He thought, I¡¯d better not see him again if he had changed. Darren, Leanna, and Harper all widened their eyes as if they didn¡¯t know what Maximilian meant. Darren asked uncertainly, ¡°Dad, what do you mean?¡± Material ? of N?velDrama.Org. ¡°It means literally.¡± Maximilian didn¡¯t look at any of them. ¡°Go back to Zosteylor with Leanna and Harper. From now on, I will think you¡¯re dead and you should. think the Yates family has vanished. I don¡¯t need a son like you. The Yates family finally found a treasure but was ruined by Darren. He thought they were animals. At first, he hesitated because he knew they were still in the hospital. But unexpectedly, his son left after sending a message and didn¡¯t even stay for one more minute. Not long ago, Kayden found out what happened back then. Some stole Cassandra half an hour after they left. Even if they could fly, they couldn¡¯t catch up with that person. Now, Darren and Leanna suddenly showed up in front of Cassandra. First, they kidnapped Hugo and then Leanna pped Cassandra. They even used public opinion to push her. No matter how grateful Cassandra felt for Leanna¡¯s giving birth to her, she had paid it off. ¡°Cassie asked her mentor to save Leanna and Harper. You have made a promise i won¡¯t pester her again. Since you have broken the promise¡± that you bear all the consequences.¡± you have to Maximilian didn¡¯t give them a chance to speak a word. ¡°Leave. You are not wee here. After you leave here, I will announce that I have disowned. you. You are expelled from the Yates family. As for the reason, juste up with a decent one.¡± Darren¡¯s eyes turned red and bloodshot. He said, ¡°Dad, are you really going to disown me?¡± Maximilian said, ¡°Yes.¡± Leanna asked with a sullen face, ¡°Dad, what did we do wrong?¡± Harper said, ¡°Grandpa Denzel said coldly, Darren, Leanna, we are apologizing to Cassie for our previous mistakes but you pushed her away again. Since you don¡¯t believe her, why do you insist on forcing her to get back to your home?¡± He didn¡¯t agree with what his brother and sister¨Cinw had done and even looked down on them. He wondered if they thought Cassie of a tool. Maximilian closed his eyes, leaned back on the sofa, and stopped looking at them. ¡°Denzel, Devin, stop talking with them. Walk them to the door.¡± Harper asked with a choked voice, ¡°Grandpa, you don¡¯t even want me? Maximilian said, ¡°Harper, it is Cassie who should say this.¡± Harper was speechless. He thought owed anyone Cassandra the most. Soon, Darren and his family were kicked out in disgrace. Darren said, ¡°Denzel, Devin, you. Devin didn¡¯t agree with what Darren and Leanna had done so this time, they were all on Larry¡¯s side. ¡°Brother, we don¡¯t want to. But you went too far this time.¡± Before Darren could say anything, he received a phone call. It was from Theodore. Suddenly, Darren raised his voice in shock. ¡°What?¡± SEND GIFT Chapter 363 Chapter 363 Darren¡¯s reaction made Leanna tremble. She felt that something bad would happen. Darren hung up the phone in a daze and he looked bewildered. Leanna hurriedly asked with concern, ¡°Darren, what¡¯s wrong?¡± Darren didn¡¯t know how to get his voice back but he said, ¡°Theodore and Vincent¡¯spanies were attacked and many multinational business partners stopped cooperating with them.¡± His two sons controlled the economic lifeline of Zosteylor. Now that theirpanies were attacked and their business partners withdrew their investment and cancelled cooperating with them, which meant that Zosteylor¡¯s economy would be hurt and even a national financial crisis was possible. Then all their effort would be in vain. Hearing this, Leanna almost lost her bnce. She couldn¡¯t believe it. Thepanies had been attacked so she was worried about those top¨Csecret documents. Leanna asked nervously, ¡°Have you found out who did it?¡± She wanted to find out who was behind this. It was about Zosteylor¡¯s economy so she must be careful. Darren¡¯s face darkened and his eyes were filled with mysterious emotions. ¡°Not yet. I only know that they have a powerful background and even we can¡¯t track them. down. He taught Vincent hacking skills so he knew very well how good Vincent was. Although Theodore did not rank among the top three hackers, he ranked among the top five at least. Although Theodore¡¯s hacking skills were not as good as Vincent¡¯s, he was brilliant enough. Darren wondered who could break through the defense system set up by Vincent and Theodore and stay there calmly for half an hour to publish all the secret documents. Multinationalpanies canceled cooperation projects with them one after another and each of them was worth dozens of billions of dors. Now they were all gone, they not only had to handle the liquidated damages but also were on the verge of bankruptcy. O Chapter 363 Material ? of N?velDrama.Org. It happened overnight. Darren wondered who on earth was attacking them. He wondered who was taking revenge on them. Leanna asked, ¡°What should we do now?¡± Even Harper was a little frightened. It was absolutely not a trivial matter that Denzel and Devin¡¯spanies were in danger. Darren said, ¡°Leanna, we have to go back now. Zosteylor is more important.¡± In other words, companies rted to the national economy were more important. Leanna didn¡¯t want anything but to go back home right away. ¡°Okay, okay. We¡¯ll leave now.¡± Her country had just had a war. If its economy was also in danger, what would happen to it in the future? It was originally a prosperous country and she couldn¡¯t allow it to be destroyed during her reign. Harper said casually, ¡°We¡¯ll leave Cassie alone?¡± The two, who were about to leave, were stunned and stopped walking. ¡°Harper, I want to do what a mother should do too but now¡­¡± Leanna felt a little embarrassed. ¡°I have to prioritize everything.¡± Harper couldn¡¯t believe what his parents were about to do. ¡°So, are you going to abandon her again?¡± he wondered if they really felt guilty in the past years. They chose other things over Cassandra and left her alone over and over again. Leanna was silent. Darren said in a deep voice, ¡°We¡¯re just going back to solve the problem. When it is done, we wille back and take your sister home.¡± He thought it didn¡¯t matter that his father did not understand him. As long as Cassandra was his daughter, she woulde back to them sooner orter. Harper looked at his parents in front of him and thought they were like ers. He shook his head in disbelief. ¡°You take everything for granted! What makes you think Cassie will go back with you? The so¨Ccalled blood rtionship? When you abandoned her, you didn¡¯t even want to stay with her for one more minute. You caused her tragedy. She grew up without a family. And now you¡¯re asking her to ||| Chapter 363 forgive you! What are you thinking about? ¡°Do you know what she¡¯s been through? Why do you take everything for granted? It is us who hurt Cassie the most and it is you who abandoned her repeatedly.¡± Harper turned to Darren, disappointed, ¡°Dad, you made a deal with Cassie to save Mom and me. Why don¡¯t you admit it now? You chose Mom and me over her. You abandoned her again. In Whitecrane Hall, when Mom passed out, you were the first one to me it on Cassie. Oh, I did it, too. I am a monster.¡± He looked at Leanna again and said in a choked voice, ¡°I don¡¯t know what Cassie did to me or Keh did to me. All I know is that Mom, your p haspletely pushed Cassie away from us. You do not deserve to see her again, let alone ask her to go back to us.¡± Harper had been putting up with it for too long. Last time, at Whitecrane Hall, he was in a hurry and his subconscious reaction probably had hurt Cassandra. He couldn¡¯t imagine how disappointed she was with them. Now, with a p, everything was ruined. Leanna said coldly and aggressively, ¡°Harper, Cassie has gone bad with Keh. She is an excellent child and she can¡¯t be ruined by Keh.¡± She thought, ¡®Cassie is my child and she is outstanding. She shoulde back to me and I will educate her. In the future, she will either inherit my brother¡¯spany or my throne. That is what she deserves. She cannot be influenced by Keh in a bad way.¡¯ Harper gave a sarcastic smile and said, ¡°Mom, what did she do to make you think she had done it? Have you ever trusted her or asked her about it? You don¡¯t treat her as your child, but a stranger, whom you never trusted at all.¡± If Cassandra wanted to do it, she would do it straightforwardly like how she did it at Whitecrane Hall, instead of ying a dirty trick in a secret ce. Leanna was a little unsure that her son really didn¡¯t believe her. She said, ¡°You don¡¯t believe me?¡± ¡°Do you believe Cassie?¡± Harper said coldly, ¡°At least I remember I was not hurt by her. I believe Dad thinks the same.¡± Darren didn¡¯t say anything but basically, he agreed with what Harper just said silently. He did not remember anything at all. Chapter 263 Leanna was desperate. She looked depressed. ¡°You two don¡¯t believe me? Who the hell do you think am 1 doing this for? But you don¡¯t believe me?¡± Leanna was so angry that she wanted to leave now. She thought, ¡®What¡¯s going on with them? They told me that they were frightened by Keh. Who else could make Keh do this to them except Cassandra? But now, they think it is my fault as if they had said nothing. ¡°Leanna, I think Harper is right.¡± Darren took Leanna¡¯s hand and said in a deep voice. ¡°We should go find Cassie and exin what is going on to her before leaving. SEND GIFT Chapter 364 Chapter 364 Darren asked him for Keh¡¯s address because if they could find Keh, they could find Cassandra. Outside the Pinehart Mansion, they asked the guards about this, but the guards refused to tell them. In the end, Leanna revealed her identity and asked to see Keh, which changed the guards¡® minds as they finally realized it was the queen who visited Pinehart Mansion. Not long after, the butler, William, came out, who smiled at Leanna and the others, ¡°Your Majesty, prince consort, wee to Pinehart Mansion, but unluckily Mr. Zelinski is not at home. How about¡­¡± ¡°You don¡¯t have to make excuses. I know both he and Gassandra are home. We¡¯re here to see Cassandra, not Keh,¡± Darren snapped coldly. Darren was angry with Keh¡¯s attitude, so he spoke bluntly. ¡°Then I¡¯ll go in and ask,¡± William went on calmly. Anyway, William wouldn¡¯t open the door for them without Keh¡¯s permission. William went in and exined the situation to Cassandra, who just smiled, ¡°I¡¯d also like to know what they¡¯re gonna say to me since they came here.¡± ¡°William, tell them they¡¯re allowed in after half an hour,¡± Cassandra said with a wicked grin. Pinehart Mansion was huge, so of course, it was understandable that it took William half, hour to go back and invite them in. Half an hourter, Darren and his family arrived in the living room of Pinehart Mansion. Seeing Cassandra taking small bites of her cake airily, Leanna was furious because Cassandra ignored them. Cassandra ate thest bite of the cake and sighed with satisfaction. Keh handed her the cup of juice on the table and said gently, ¡°Drink some water so you don¡¯t choke.¡± ¡°Okay,¡± Cassandra answered, took the ss, and drank it, ignoring thempletely. ¡°Cassie¡­ Darren muttered as he was a little dissatisfied. Fri, 22 Mar Chapter 364 Darren still regarded Cassandra as his daughter, who was inferior to him, so he took offense to Cassandra¡¯s ignorance. ¡°Mr. Yates, Ms. Leanna Stark, what are you looking for me for?¡± Cassandra asked in a cold voice. Leanna stammered for a moment, ¡°I¡­ Your father and I are going back home. Will you go with us?¡± Cassandra sneered as if she had heard a joke, ¡°Ms. Leanna Stark, what are you. talking about?¡± ¡°You¡­¡± Leanna raged but was stopped by Darren. Darren said curtly, ¡°Cassie, something bad has happened to Theodore and Vincent, so we¡¯re rushing back to fix it. Would you like toe with us¡­¡± Cassandra cut Darren off before he could finish his sentence. Cassandra snorted, ¡°I think you have misunderstood something. Do I recognize you two as my parents? Don¡¯t call me Cassie. I said I don¡¯t have parents, let alone. brothers: Don¡¯t ever tell me that Theodore and Vincent are my brothers again. I¡¯ve said it a million times. Don¡¯t you understand what I¡¯m saying? Or is this because the Yates family are all this shameless?¡± During this time, Maximilian stopped trying to change Cassandra¡¯s mind, but Darren and Benjamin still didn¡¯t give up, and they were just as shameless as ever. Darren only listened to what went his way. Cassandra started to think that maybe that was why he chose Benjamin to change her gic data. It turned out that they were the same kind of people. ¡°What nonsense are you talking about?¡± Leanna said harshly. Cassandra sneered, ¡°Ms. Leanna Stark, you think I¡¯m going to recognize you as my mother just because you put me online? That¡¯s not gonna happen. I will never be ckmailed by public opinion, so you won¡¯t seed if you try to corner me with it. I¡¯m a human being, and I¡¯m an independent individual who can think. Thew. gives me the right to choose whether or not I disassociate myself from my parents as an adult. ¡°Yes, you gave birth to me, but you didn¡¯t want me. What do you have to be upset about since I¡¯ve repaid you about that? Don¡¯t offend me again. Don¡¯t make me deprive you of everything you have.¡± Chapter 364 Instead of calming them down, Cassandra¡¯s words infuriated them even more. Only Harper, who¡¯s eyes were full of guilt, lowered his head in shame. ¡°Do you hate us so much?¡± Darren called out as he couldn¡¯t believe it. He wondered why his daughter was such a ruthless person. Expressionlessly, Cassandra said, ¡°I don¡¯t hate you. You¡¯re just strangers to me. Just to remind you, I¡¯m a vindictive person. Ms. Leanna Stark, I won¡¯t forget the p you gave me, so I¡¯ve decided to give you guys something back.¡± Darren felt something was wrong because bad things kept happeningtely. He asked a little uneasily, ¡°You¡­ What did you do?¡± Cassandra chuckled, ¡°Nothing special. I just released Theodore¡¯spany¡¯s confidential data. Those groups canceled their partnership with him because Modern Beacon Synergy gave them a better deal. How¡¯s that? Isn¡¯t that a surprise?¡± Keh was also involved in this. He attracted these clients for Modern Beacon Synergy, so Cassandra agreed to share the profits with Keh in half. Theodore carved up thosepanies, which made hispany powerful enough to ount for even a small portion of the country¡¯s GDP, but Modern Beacon Synergy and the Zelinski Group were even more powerful. In other words, Theodore¡¯spany was no match for them. Leanna widened her eyes and looked at Cassandra furiously as she eximed, ¡°What did you say? You did all this?¡± Cassandra chuckled, ¡°It¡¯s me. But do you have any proof?¡± Darren asked disappointedly, ¡°Why did you do this? Don¡¯t you realize how important Theodore¡¯s company is to Zosteylor?¡± Cassandra smiled sarcastically and her eyes were very sharp. ¡°Well, that¡¯s why I did. it. Otherwise, how are you gonna leave me alone? ¡°Since you are going back, don¡¯te back. I have nothing to do with you two. You live your lives and I live mine. I don¡¯t need your so¨Ccalled care, and I don¡¯t want to see you two for the rest of my life.¡± Cassandra¡¯s words made Leanna sad and angry. She wondered if Cassandra knew how important Theodore¡¯spany was to her. 11:14 Fri, 22 Mar Chapter 364 The more Leanna thought about it, the angrier she became. She raised her hand and wanted to p Cassandra again. Unexpectedly, Cassandra didn¡¯t give her a chance at all and threw a silver needle. directly to her. ¡°Since you don¡¯t want a healthy body, let me help you.¡± After saying that, Cassandra pulled out the silver needle. But Leanna didn¡¯t faint this time. Leanna red at Cassandra and raged, ¡°What did you do?¡± Cassandra snorted, ¡°Nothing. I just do something as you wish. You know what? You can leave now. Otherwise, I will announce your evil deeds to the world. It¡¯s not worth it to maintain your persona for so many years and ruin it in Clusia, right?¡± Darren was a little worried about Leanna¡¯s health, so he didn¡¯t retort. Before they left, Darren sighed, ¡°Cassie, I wille back to you after I take care of everything.¡± ¡°Please don¡¯t, Cassandra snapped. SEND GIFT COMMENTN?velDrama.Org copyrighted ? content. Chapter 365 Chapter 365 After the news that Leanna was going to return home came out, everyone was shocked and confused. [I¡¯m a little confused. What happened? Didn¡¯t she just announce that Cassandra is her daughter? She had left?] [I knew it ex left all the trouble for Cassandra! She wanted everyone to me. Cassandra for not leaving with her!] [Isn¡¯t that the truth? What else does Cassandra want? Her mother¡¯s the queen!] [Then may you be alone forever!] [Interesting. Is Cassandra going back with Queen Stark? If she doesn¡¯t, what does. Queen Stark mean?] [It¡¯s really confusing. I can¡¯t understand it.] [Say something, Cassandra!] [I heard that Queen Stark¡¯s eldest son¡¯spany had a big problem, and they went back to solve it. As for Cassandra, they just gave up on her.] [She said she wouldn¡¯t abandon Cassandra again, but now she did. She¡¯s even, trying to mislead people that Cassandra drove her away!] Netizens had different opinions about it, but most of them supported Cassandra and sympathized with her. Her biological parents left again without taking her with them. When Leanna saw thements on Twitter before she got on the ne, she was a little angry that thesements were against her. Darren noticed that something was wrong with the look on Leanna¡¯s face and asked worriedly, ¡°Are you okay?¡± Darren didn¡¯t know what Cassandra had done to Leanna as even Clusia¡¯s most advanced equipment couldn¡¯t detect any abnormality with Leanna¡¯s health. However, he was still worried and wanted to go back as soon as possible. Darren really cared about Leanna and Theodore. Leanna handed her phone to Darren with a sullen face. He nced at it and raged, Chapter 365 ¡°I¡¯ll handle it.¡± Then he took out his phone and texted someone. After a while, Leanna couldn¡¯t find all the annoying comments gone. After returning home, Darren hurriedly asked doctors to examine Leanna before. went to Theodore¡¯s study to inquire about the situation. ¡°What the hell is going on?¡± Darren asked coldly. ¡°The defense system was destroyed and there¡¯s no way to fix it yet. Vincent and I can¡¯t fix it even when we work together,¡± Theodore said respectfully. The most important thing now was not the stolen cooperation but these confidential files and documents. If they continued to be leaked Theodore¡¯spany would be finished. ¡°Father, what are we going to do? Vincent and I haven¡¯t found out who did it yet,¡± Theodore said angrily as he felt insulted. Speaking of this, Darren also looked a little unhappy. ¡°It was Cassie,¡± sighed Darren. Theodore couldn¡¯t believe what he had heard. How could it be Cassandra? ¡°Why did she do that?¡± Theodore asked in confusion. ¡°To drive us back,¡± Darren said coldly. He was a little disappointed with Cassandra and even felt that she had gone too far. They were her family, but she was so cruel to them. ¡°Well¡­¡± Theodore muttered. He hadn¡¯t checked Twitter in the past few days, so all he knew was that his mother had announced Cassandra¡¯s identity on Twitter. He thought uneasily. At that thought, Theodore suddenly realized that he hadn¡¯t seen Leanna, so he hastily asked, ¡°Where¡¯s my mother? Why hasn¡¯t shee over?¡± Theodore didn¡¯t think Leanna would miss this. ¡°Your mother is undergoing an examination, and it¡¯s not over yet¡­¡± Darren answered. Before he could finish his words, there was a knock on the door of the 11:14 Chapter 365 study. 22 §Þ§Ñ§Ô Theodore opened the door. ¡°Doctor, what¡¯s wrong?¡± Theodore asked. ¡°Queen Stark¡­ Queen Stark has fainted¡­¡± eximed the doctor, Dr. Albarn.

Without appropriate medical treatment, Leanna might never wake up. To put it bluntly, she would be like a living dead. But she wouldn¡¯t die. Darren was so frightened that he pushed Dr. Albarn away and ran to the examining room. As he entered, he saw Leanna lying there quietly, no different than in the years she was poisoned. He shook his head in disbelief and shouted, ¡°What the hell is going on?¡± Dr. Albarn stammered, ¡°ording to the examinations, Her Majesty is fine and the poison in her body does not jeopardize her health.

Darren¡¯s face turned gloomy and he interrupted, ¡°Shut up.¡± It wasn¡¯t until then that Darren realized this might be Cassandra¡¯s revenge. Instead of making Leanna pass out in Clusia, Cassandra got them back to Zosteylor it was in Leanna¡¯s own territory that she passed out, which had nothing to do with Clusia. Cassandra was cruel, but she valued her country¡¯s reputation and didn¡¯t want to tarnish it. Darren had to admit that Cassandra was more capable than he thought she was Now he was desperate. The Yates family in Clusia posted a statement on Twitter. [Statement: Effective immediately, Darren Yates, prince consort of Zosteylor, will be removed from the Yates family genealogy and will not be associated with the Yates family of Drieso.] [Good luck, Darren.] As soon as this statement came out, Darren was officially removed from the Yates family It was a double whammy for Darren.

Darren disappeared for 20 years and was removed from the family tree only after a week. It¡¯s so dramatic.] [I¡¯m afraid Maximilian is the most devastated one. He spent most of his life raising such a brilliant son, but his son became the husband of the Queen of another country. Since Maximilian insisted on driving Darren away, Darren must have done something unforgivable.] Theizens were right that Maximilian was the most upset one. He was the most disappointed and sad one. Disappointingly, Darren made the same mistakes as Maximilian, but unlike Maximilian, Darren didn¡¯t repent or reflect, and he even felt that it was all Cassandra¡¯s fault. Maximilian was d Darren was alive. However, while Darren was a good husband, he was a terrible father.

That¡¯s okay.¡¯ At the very least, Maximilian wanted Cassie to know that she still had family in the world. Maximilian sighed and smiled bitterly. He said in a low voice, ¡°You¡¯re right. I shall take care of myself and live longer. I¡¯ll be Cassie¡¯s backer and make sure everyone in Drieso knows it.¡± Though Cassandra already had Keh, Maximilian was still willing to offer her some protection. Maximilian wanted Cassandra to get the best. Cassandra was shocked when she saw the news online. There were even a lot of people messaging her to curse her. [You are such a jinx!

Although she hadn¡¯t had much contact with Maximilian, she had always known that Maximilian was proud of Darren and had high expectations for him. But now, Maximilian had removed Darren from the family tree and disowned him. Unconsciously, Cassandra was lost in thought and didn¡¯t even notice that Keh had returned. ¡°Cassie, what are you thinking?¡± Keh sat beside her and asked softly. Cassandra suddenly sobered up, looked at Keh, and said tenderly, ¡°You¡¯re back.¡± Keh was probably the only one who still went to work on weekends at the base and the office. In fact, Cassandra didn¡¯t go to school or Whitecrane Hall on weekends anymore. Cassandra had given Lydia the perfume for the International Perfume Competition, and now she just had to wait for the results. Cassandra had made a lot of perfume for Leonardo in her past life, but that had been a long time ago. Keh held Cassie in his arms. He hadn¡¯t hugged Cassie for a long time and missed her embrace. He whispered, ¡°Yeah, I¡¯m back. What were you thinking about just now?¡± She handed the phone to Keh and showed him the Yates family¡¯s statement. ¡°This is the decision of your father. He must have thought it over carefully, so you don¡¯t need to pay attention to it,¡± Keh said calmly. Cassandra shook her head and retorted, ¡°I just thought it was funny. ¡°Maximilian must be really disappointed in Darren.¡± Thest person in the world to me Cassandra was Darren. After all it was Darren who caused all the wrongs. He was a good husband, and he might be a good father at times, but he was never the same for Cassandra. Darren was truly shameless and greedy. Chapter 366 Cassandra smiled, ¡°So what? Maximilian used to be very proud when he spoke of Darren, but now I¡¯m afraid it¡¯s over.¡± Keh chuckled, ¡°He deserved it. Andy has arranged a variety show for you. Are you interested?¡± Cassandra¡¯s eyes suddenly widened as she thought in shock, ¡®When did this happen? Why did I know nothing about it?¡® ¡°How do you know?¡± Cassandra asked curiously. Keh answered proudly, ¡°I became your emergency contact after we got together.¡± N?velDrama.Org copyrighted ? content. To be exact, after Cassandra was wrongly used of cheating in the mid¨Cterm examst time, Keh changed all her emergency contacts to him. He asked Hugo and Jeremiah did it for him. Jeremiah was furious at that time. But since Cassandra was Keh¡¯s girlfriend, he couldn¡¯t say anything about it. Ìï Chapter 367 Chapter 367 Zosteylor, inside Queen¡¯s Pce. The air was filled with the smell of illness, and no one dared to breathe heavily. They were afraid that Darren or Theodore would be angry with them, so they were all uneasy. The face of the prince consort was even more gloomy. Everyone was confused and scared. After all, Leanna was fine when she came back, but suddenly she fainted before finishing her checkup. This was terrifying. ¡°Is there any other way to make the Queen wake up?¡± Darren turned to Dr. Albarn and asked coldly. Dr. Albarn was helpless as he was clueless at the moment. He didn¡¯t understand why Prince Consort didn¡¯t¡¯ask Faye for help since Dr. Quirke was his daughter. ¡°Mr. Yates, honestly, there is nothing I can do,¡± Dr. Albarn said solemnly. If this were ancient times, Leanna would be the Queen of Clusia. How could he lie and say he could cure Leanna? Therefore, Dr. Albarn had to tell the truth. Dr. Albarn continued, ¡°The only ones I can think about right now are Dr. Quirke or Dr. Quirke¡¯s mentor.¡± Even with the most advanced medical equipment, Leanna was unable to wake up. To make matters worse, they didn¡¯t even know why Leanna was in aa. They had no choice but to ask Cassandra for help. Darren¡¯s face changed all of a sudden. He looked gloomy as he snapped, ¡°There is no other way?¡± Darren didn¡¯t want to find Cassandra anymore, at least not because of this. Darren could even think of the conditions Cassandra would make. She would probably tell them never to go to Clusia, where she grew up. She didn¡¯t wee them at all. Dr. Albarn shook his head and answered truthfully, ¡°No.¡± ? Chapter 367 Darren felt helpless and even desperate. He closed his eyes in pain as if he were struggling. ¡°Father, are you going to give up on Cassie again?¡± Harper asked anxiously as he could tell Darren was hesitant. Darren growled, ¡°Then tell me what I should do. What could I do? No one can help your mother but Cassie. Do you want to watch your mother slip into a permanenta?¡± Darren thought, ¡®I don¡¯t want to make a choice either! ¡®It was Cassandra who forced me to do this!¡± Cassandra reminded Darren of him when he was young. However, while he was getting older and indecisive, Cassandra was getting more powerful. Darren took out his phone to call Cassandra but was stopped by Harper. Harper called out, ¡°Have you made up your mind, father? If you call Cassie now, we¡¯ll be turned off by her forever.¡± It was thest favor Cassandra would ever give them. Harper thought in despair, ¡®Is this really what I want to see?¡± If he had a choice, Harper would have rather it was him who was abandoned back. then. However, he couldn¡¯t change the situation. Darren sighed, ¡°I can¡¯t watch your mother die.¡± Darren¡¯s eyes were full of pain as he was in a dilemma. Theodore and Vincent also looked bitter. Suddenly, Vincent said, ¡°Father, does Cassie hate Theodore and me? If so, we can immediately sever our rtionship with you and Mother as long as Cassie cane back. ¡°Theodore and I have been thinking about this for a long time. None of us wanted. this to happen.¡± After all, Cassandra was Darren¡¯s daughter, but Darren abandoned her and raised two adopted sons. This must be uneptable for Cassandra. Chapter 367 ¡°Vincent, Theodore, it has nothing to do with you two,¡± Harper retorted in a cold. voice. Vincent looked up nkly. Harper went on, ¡°Mom pped Cassie, so¡­¡± ¡°What?¡± eximed Vincent and Theodore. ¡°Do you also think your mother has done something wrong? She was defending Harper and me,¡± Darren snapped as he was dissatisfied with the reaction of his adopted sons. ¡°Father!¡± Theodore blurted out. ¡®Damn, thought Harper. Harper had a bad feeling at Darren¡¯s reaction. ***** With no one stopping him anymore, Darren called Cassandra, who didn¡¯t answer the phone until Darren called her a third time. ¡°Mr. Yates, what?¡± asked Cassandra impatiently. ¡°Say what you want. I will keep it this time as long as you wake Leanna up,¡± Darren said coldly. Darren gave up on getting Cassandra¡¯s respect. N?velDrama.Org copyrighted ? content. ¡°Did something happen to Ms. Leanna Stark?¡± Cassandra asked lightly as if she didn¡¯t know. ¡°You don¡¯t have to pretend that you don¡¯t know. You drugged her, right? And she was in aa after returning to Zosteylor. Who else could it be if you didn¡¯t do it?¡± Darren lost his good temper and said harshly. Cassandra snorted, ¡°Mr. Yates, prove it. Otherwise, I shall think you are ndering me. Queen Stark had the incident in Zosteylor. How can you me that on me?¡± ¡°Cassandra, trust me again. This time, I will never go back on my word no matter what you ask for,¡± Darren begged as all he wanted now was to save Leanna. However, during his call, Harper heard the news and left in despair, not knowing where he had gone., Cassandra said in a serious tone, ¡°Darren, it¡¯s toote. You can¡¯t meet my requirements anymore. You broke my terms from the start, remember? In that case, I¡¯ll take back everything I have.¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t deny it this time because she knew Darren wouldn¡¯t be able to present evidence even if she admitted it.¡± Cassandra knew that Darren was a good hacker, but Vincent was no better than Jeremiah. Therefore, it was unsure who would win. as Casu Therefore, it for Cassandra to hack someone¡¯s phone orputer. ¡°Let¡¯s just assume I was wrong. Please give me one more chance. You are in charge this time,¡± Darren muttered with desperation. ¡°Darren, you have no credibility with me. Well¡­ I¡¯m not going to help you, so find someone else,¡± Cassandra sneered and hung up. Cassandra was a little surprised that Leanna had passed out so soon. After all, Blue Sky, the drug she had developed, had different effects on different people. The better a person¡¯s health, the quicker the coma came when she ingested the drug. Cassandra liked the name she had developed for the drug, Blue Sky, and she thought it suited Darren and Leanna. Cassandra hung up the phone and directly turned off her phone. In this way, no one would be able to call her. There were very few people who could hack her phone, not alone Darren. Not wanting to be called by Darren from different numbers, Cassandra turned off her cell phone. She could have used another phone number anyway. When Darren called again, he found Cassandra¡¯s phone turned off, which made him panic. He asked the others to call Cassandra, but they all failed. Then Darren was sure that Cassandra did it on purpose. SEND GIFT Chapter 368 Chapt Chapter 368 Darren didn¡¯t waste any more time on the phone. Instead, he asked Theodore to prepare a private ne and fly back home. When he arrived at Drieso, photos of him leaving the airport were posted online. [Wow¡­ He¡¯s back?] [He should indeede back since something so terrible has happened. But why is he alone? Where¡¯s his family?] Oh, Prince Consort¡¯s is back, but he was rejected by the Yates family.] [I¡¯m curious about what will happen next.] [Me, too.] [Breaking news! Prince consort didn¡¯t go to the Yates residence! Wasn¡¯t he back to quarrel with Maximilian?]. [So where is he going and what is he going to do?] [Well, he went to the Pinchart Mansion, Keh¡¯s ce. Could it be¡­] [Isn¡¯t that Keh¡¯s house? I¡¯ve always wondered what its name means.] [Stay out of Keh¡¯s business.

She was not going to change her mind anyway. ¡°Cassandra, what on earth do you want so that you can spare Leanna?¡± Darren said straightforwardly. This time, he didn¡¯t call her Cassic but Cassandra directly. Darren thought Cassandra had gone too far this time. ¡°Darren, I gave you opportunities, but you didn¡¯t seize them. me yourself,¡± Cassandra retorted coldly. Cassandra did give Darren and Leanna a lot of chances, but instead of cherishing the chances, they touched Cassandra¡¯s bottom line again and again.

I¡¯m sure Mr. President of Clusia will give me a satisfactory reply,¡± Darren snapped as he gazed at Cassandra ||| Chapter 368 with disappointment and regret. He and his daughter finally came to this. ¡°Go ahead and say it. If there is no evidence, will Mr. President believe it?¡± Cassandra snorted as she felt that Darren was getting stupid. In the past, when Kayden¡¯s mother mentioned them, she had expectations, but she was afraid. Cassandra was afraid that she would go through the tragedy of her past life again, so she decided to disassociate herself from the Yates family. Although she went about it the wrong way, which made up for Maximilian, she knew that it was temporary. As a result, she never intended to go back to the Yates family. To put it more bluntly, Cassandra never wanted to recognize Darren and Leanna before her birth parents came back. In the end, after knowing the truth, she had no expectations. Later, Hugo was kidnapped¡­ What they did drained thest vestiges of her longing and expectation of kinship. Cassandra and Blossom were both people who were eager for kinship, and that was why they had the tragedies in their previous lives. In this life, things changed a bit. But it was not the right time yet. ¡°Cassandra, I can satisfy you as long as you tell me what you want. Zosteylor can¡¯t exist without Leanna. It will be a total mess,¡± Darren called out anxiously. He didn¡¯t want to waste time with Cassandra here. ¡°It¡¯s no use. There is no antidote. I haven¡¯t worked it out yet,¡± Cassandra said with a serious look on her face. Darren widened his eyes and looked at Cassandra in disbelief as he couldn¡¯t believe that Cassandra had used some drug without an antidote on Leanna! Darren panicked out of worry for Leanna. His eyes turned red, full of grief and rage! ¡°Cassandra, how can you be so cruel? No matter what, she is your mother. Aren¡¯t you afraid of karma for doing this?¡± Darren shouted harshly. Cassandra snorted coldly, ¡°Darren, let me tell you what happened. Because of your 51% Chapter 368 stupid idea to change my gic data, I¡¯ve died tragically once! I was stabbed and trampled and had my corpse dumped. Isn¡¯t that karma? I¡¯ve already paid for it! Who are you to use? ¡°You are the culprit of what I have suffered. I¡¯ve died once and am now on my second life. Do you think I¡¯m going to make the same mistake? Yeah, Benjamin is an asshole, but what about you? Without you, how would I have died that miserably? You¡¯re calling me cruel? If you¡¯d felt one ounce of sorry for me and waited for Maximilian for a while, that tragedy wouldn¡¯t have happened! Who am I supposed to me for that? Don¡¯t tell me about karma. I¡¯ve been punished once, and I¡¯m not afraid of being punished a second time!¡± When Cassandra finished all this, her body was still shaking. ¡°You¡­ What are you talking about? Do you think we¡¯re filming a TV series?¡± Darren stammered as he was shocked by Cassandra¡¯s words, but he didn¡¯t believe her. Darren thought it was nonsense. Reborn after death was impossible. Cassandra said indifferently, ¡°Well, you won¡¯t believe me anyway. Whatever. It¡¯s useless for you to argue with me here. I don¡¯t have an antidote. It is newly developed. You won¡¯t be able to develop an antidote even if I give you the recipe. for the poison.¡± Cassandra wasn¡¯t able to make an antidote so soon, and neither was Omar. So, Leanna could only stay in aa forever and wake up unless something miraculous happened. ¡°You¡­¡± Darren stammered. He wanted to scold her, but after hearing what she said. just now, he realized that he couldn¡¯t. ¡°You might as well go back and talk to her instead of wasting your time here,¡± Cassandra said as she watched Darren impatiently and sneered. When Darren left, Cassandra gave him the form of Blue Sky. After Darren left, Cassandra realized something was wrong with Keh. He stared at her in disbelief and asked, ¡°What did you mean by the words you just said to Darren? What did it mean that you had died once? Cassie, what have you gone through?¡± Cassandra was shocked and looked at Keh in a panic. She didn¡¯t know how to Chapter 368 exin it. ¡°I¡­ I was just kidding.

I don¡¯t think it was a joke,¡± Keh said in a serious tone. This was the first time he retorted to Cassandra. Keh wondered, ¡®What¡¯s Cassie¡¯s secret? ¡°What karma? ¡®What did she mean that she died once? ¡®Her second life?¡® This must not be a joke.

Keh held her in his arms and said softly, ¡°Cassie, don¡¯t try to hide it from me. This is the second time you have mentioned your death.

Noticing the expression on Keh¡¯s face, Cassandra murmured, ¡°Forget it.¡± It seemed that Keh didn¡¯t believe it either. Darren, Cassandra¡¯s biological father, didn¡¯t believe it and even thought she was insane. Cassandra smiled bitterly. Keh quickly noticed it and pulled Cassandra into his arms.

However, you didn¡¯t stay as you did in this life but left directly. ¡°After I returned to the Yates family, Yulissa stole my SAT scores. She rigged my information to change it to hers and got admitted to Juset University. I was living at life that was worse than death in the Yates family. ¡°Neither Grandma Blossom nor I had a family.

Chapter 369 Cassandra¡¯s voice was light and her tone was t as if she were telling a fictional story. She recounted what had happened to her as if it were a banal tragedy. However, Keh was amanding officer who participated in the war and fought with enemies several times. He knew it was not as easy as Cassandra said it was. Cassandra just did to Leonardo and his brothers what they did to her in herst life. ¡°Cassie, I¡¯m sorry,¡± apologized Keh. He thought bitterly, ¡®Sorry, I didn¡¯t protect you well in my previous life. ¡®I¡¯m sorry you had to go through all this. For this, Cassandra said lightly, ¡°What are you apologizing for?¡± ¡°It¡¯s my fault for not protecting you in myst life,¡± Keh said in a low voice.

In my previous life, you killed them all and found my body under the leadership of that guard.¡± Keh had Cassandra buried so she wasn¡¯t eaten by bugs and beasts. And Keh avenged Cassandra and made the people who killed her pay. ¡°Does it hurt?¡± Keh asked again. Cassandra was a little frustrated at Keh¡¯s question. Of course, it hurt. Jasper¡¯s acupuncture had magnified the pain dozens of times. The injuries on her body were just minor problems as she was killed by the pain.

He was unable to read the prescription Cassandra had given him and had shown it to many traditional medicine practitioners, but none of them coulde up with an antidote. This time, he was even more desperate than when Kam poisoned someone. There was only one day left. If Leanna didn¡¯t wake up, she would never wake up again. It was all Cassandra¡¯s fault. Darren didn¡¯t understand why Cassandra was so heartless and callous. He didn¡¯t want such a daughter. He thought, ¡®Maybe I should pretend I don¡¯t have such a daughter. So, he opened Twitter, registered an ount, and authenticated his real name.

Her life will no longer have anything to do with us.] Effective immediately, my wife and I have only one son, Harper, as well as two adopted sons.] Theizens were even more confused. Why were celebrities disassociating themselves from their kids? The Queen had just announced that Cassandra was her daughter, but now the prince consort announced that they were cutting ties with their daughter. They made themselves aughingstock. [I don¡¯t get this situation. Any insiders?] III Chapter 370 Chapter 370 [Hey! What a coincidence! I didn¡¯t get it either!] [Are these people from the Yates family going to be myughingstock? First, the father and son have not seen each other for many years, and they be strangers after a statement. Then the Queen announced in a high¨Cprofile manner that she has a daughter, and how they are no longer mother and daughter?] [I¡¯m so confused.] [So confused.] [At this point, I have to say that Darren has no right to deny it as if Cassandra had admitted him.] [Whether she admits it or not, it is a fact that cannot be changed, okay? Can she change the fact that Darren is Cassandra¡¯s biological father if she doesn¡¯t admit it?] [What tongue twister are you talking about? I don¡¯t know what you think.

Boohoo, I really love it!] [I want to see if Cassandra responds, and I¡¯m looking forward to it.] [Looking forward to it!] As it turned out, Cassandra didn¡¯t even have time to pay attention to her. Cassandra even lived a full life. Since she said everything, she felt that she was now very rxed and in a much better mood than before. Moreover, she also entered the 20¨Cin¨C10 stage in the perfumepetition. This was not good news for her, but it wasn¡¯t too bad. Her mentality was obviously different from before. Even Sofia and Cassidy in the ssroom noticed that she was quite different. ¡°Samantha, do you have something happy?¡± Sofia asked curiously. O Cassidy also looked at her curiously. ¡°Yeah, I¡¯m in a good mood,¡± Cassandra answered. She was d that things were no longer weighing on her mind. She was most happy that Keh believed in her, which was more important to her than anything else. ¡°Well, some people are still pretending to be calm here,¡± Anabe said gloatingly. ¡°I thought she was a princess.

She thought, ¡®I thought that after she became a princess, she would cause trouble for me, but I didn¡¯t expect that it had only been a few days¡­ It¡¯s indeed retribution.¡± Cassandra finally understood. It seemed that Darren had posted something on the Inte again, which made this person crazy here. She opened Twitter and saw Darren¡¯s tweet. She smiled and thoughtfully retweeted his Twitter message, and then wrote: [Thank you.] Why did this kind of reply feel more lethal than ¡°get out¡°?

But the doctor said he had done his best to make Leanna keep her senses and hear the outside world, except that she couldn¡¯t wake up. The doctor was shocked.

It was then that Harper sensed danger approaching. ¡°What do you want?¡± Harper looked at Keh and felt a little nervous because he didn¡¯t feel well. ¡°Harper, running away from home is not good behavior,¡± Keh snorted coldly. ¡°So we are escorting you to the airport now.

Suddenly, he had an idea and was ready to run away. However, when he just arrived at the stairs, he found that there were already many people standing there. Keh waved his hand, and Yannick and Jeremiah volunteered to step forward and drag Harper away. Keh then approached Cassandra and said softly, ¡°Do you miss me today?¡± Cassandra was speechless. ¡°Keh, read less romantic novels. It is easy to affect people¡¯s normal thinking, such as you now.¡± When Cassandra heard this, it was a very sweet sentence. But for some reason, Keh¡¯s words were slightly greasy. It didn¡¯t seem to be greasy. It was like having a father¡¯s face and asking his daughter, ¡°Did you miss me today?¡± It was weird. Keh chuckled and said, ¡°I think I can read more books if it helps me win you. over.¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t know what to say. As they chatted, Harper was taken to the airport.

The forensic doctor couldn¡¯t find the cause and judged it as sudden death,¡± Keh said lightly, looking at his girlfriend with great interest.

He thought, ¡®Fortunately, she died early. ¡®Otherwise, I will do it. ¡®It¡¯s a good thing for her to die so easily. Cassie is so kind.

When the guards contacted her family to pay, Leonardo hung up and said it had nothing to do with them. In the end, there was no one willing to care about her. It was really sad. ¡°Miranda went out to have sex with others and then had Yulissa. Most people would regard bastards as a shame. But Miranda raised her and spoiled her.

She had taken many medicines to treat it, but it didn¡¯t work. In mid¨CDecember, the Perfume Competition entered the finals, and everyone needed toe to the site for thepetition. After rounds of elimination, Cassandra sessfully stood at the end. Lydia was the happiest. She thought, ¡®Magnolia Studio is indeed Magnolia Studio. Even if it hasn¡¯t been mixed for a few years, its skills are still good enough.¡± However, the final of thepetition was in Spaunia, which put Cassandra in a bit of a dilemma. Lydia said, ¡°You don¡¯t have to go to school every day anyway. Besides, the final exam ising soon, so you can work out the papers and do not need to stay with them.

He had no problem dealing with some situations. Lamont was strong enough to protect Cassie, so Keh felt relieved when they were by her side. ¡°Okay, you can arrange it. Cassandra did not refuse.

She was very confident about her perfume, and there was no mistake at all. Thepetitionsted about two hours and she was undoubtedly the best.

She found that the woman was the one that ranked after Cassandra. Lydia thought, ¡®What does she mean?¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t say anything. ¡°Who are you? Who do you think you are talking about?¡± Lydia was a little angry, though she didn¡¯t want to. Lydia thought, ¡®If she despises me, I could put up with it. But how dare she trash about Cassie? Then I can¡¯t stand it!¡® ¡°I¡¯m just looking down on you. As a Clusian, you know nothing about perfume. You may cheat to get high grades. I¡¯ll report you!¡± the woman suddenly shouted.

Those people also looked at Cassandra¨Cwith disdain. After several rounds, there were only three finalists in the Yasia. One was Cassandra from Clusia; one was from Romia and the other was from Hurean. They gingerly praised the contestants of Spaunia as if to worship them like their ancestors. This showed that their grades were not important to them. However, Cassandra didn¡¯t think so. She came here topete and naturally wanted to win. ¡°Since you know what ¡®clown¡® means, don¡¯t you think that is describing yourself?¡± Cassandra retorted.

Shouldn¡¯t they give me an exnation for what happened?¡± Selina nced at Cassandra contemptuously and said with a microphone, ¡°Cassandra, just admit it. Your name is on that bottle. Who else can it be? Isn¡¯t it toote to deny it?¡± Cassandra turned around to look at Selina seriously, which made Selina tremble slightly. Selina paced backward with guilt. Selina thought, ¡®Damn it! How can I be scared by a Clusian?¡± ¡°Why are you looking at me? Am I wrong? That¡¯s yourbel. Isn¡¯t it a littlete to deny it now?¡± Selina said. She thought, ¡®Well, that¡¯s Cassandra¡¯s stuff. There is no way she can deny it. I have already kept the perfume Cassandra made to myself. I don¡¯t want to cheat, but my uncle just said that one of the perfumes was very good and could definitely win the championship. I can¡¯t allow such a thing to happen because I was the predetermined champion of thispetition. So, I asked someone to exchange the perfume. I was indeed surprised when I smelled the perfume. In that case, Cassandra has to be kicked out. The other judges also looked gloomy. Clusian contestant questioned the fairness. of the game. ¡°Do you mean that we are ndering you? Look, is that yours or not?¡± A female judge was very angry and shouted at her. Another judge was also angry and dissatisfied with Cassandra¡¯sments. Chapter 376 23 Mar ¡°What else do I need to say about this kind of person? With all the evidence, why don¡¯t we just suspend her?¡± The other male judge said directly. He thought, ¡®A giarist should be suspended directly. There is no need to talk to her. ¡°Shouldn¡¯t you investigate the situation before convicting me? This is not mine. Shouldn¡¯t you think about where you put my perfume and why is it reced by ¡®Lovesick¡°?¡± Jonas looked unhappy. ¡°Do you mean that there are shady deals?¡± This was what he would not tolerate and the most shameful thing. ¡°I think some of the judges should be very clear about that.¡± Cassandra looked over them. Jonas was even more furious and shouted, ¡°Cassandra, you don¡¯t respect thepetition, let alone us judges. You do not deserve to participate in thepetition at all. I will disqualify you!¡± Cassandra nced at Lydia, and Lydia immediately took her phone and handed it to her. She put the microphone on the receiver of the phone. ¡°Who the hell are you? Do you know who I am? Thispetition is held for me!¡± ¡°Really? Then let the sponsor tell me. I will quit immediately. If it¡¯s a fakepetition, I disdain to participate.¡± ¡°Oh! So you always rank second. Then how can you be so confident to say that thispetition is specially held for you?¡± ¡°Thispetition is sponsored by my uncle. Magnolia Studio doesn¡¯t participate in thepetition. Who do you think will win in my uncle¡¯spetition?¡± This recording embarrassed the judges, and Jonas was even more ufortable. Selina¡¯s eyes widened in disbelief. Selina thought, ¡®Why is there a recording? When did she record it?¡® Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org. The audience was very angry. There were shady deals in thepetition. ¡°This game is unfair, and there are shady deals. Now someone still keeps my perfume as her own. I demand a thorough investigation!¡± Cassandra¡¯s voice was very cold but firm. Her voice resounded throughout thepetition field. Chapter 376 Jonas was no longer fierce but looked at Cassandra with a hint of curiosity. ¡°Are you saying that someone switched your perfume?¡± ¡°I¡¯m just suspicious. I need to check the security tape for confirmation,¡± Cassandra said coldly. ¡°Why do you think we should let you investigate?¡± One of the judges looked nervous because she took Selina¡¯s money and wanted to get rid of Cassandra. Now not only did Cassandra stay, but also exposed the truth. ¡°If the contestants have doubts, the judges and the organizer should do some investigation. Is there any problem?¡± She looked at the judges who had questioned her just now and said, ¡°What do you think, Jasmyn?¡± Jasmyn didn¡¯t know how to respond. ¡°Then check the security tape,¡± Jonas said firmly. He thought, ¡®I don¡¯t want to see shady deals in thepetition. I¡¯ll deal with Cassandra first. Then I will deal with Selina. About five minutester, they watched the security tape, but there was nothing wrong with it. The perfume was just there. Suddenly, the picture turned to show the judges. When they saw Cassandra¡¯s perfume, they all looked angry. Jonas didn¡¯t doubt anything and asked in a cold voice, ¡°See? Do you think there is something wrong?¡± ¡°Of course there is a problem. The editing is very unprofessional,¡± Cassandra smiled. She walked directly to the console and asked the staff to stand aside. She zoomed the video which showed the time, pressed pause, and the voice from the microphone sounded throughout the competition hall. ¡°Ladies and gentlemen, please pay attention. It was 11:45 in the morning.¡± She yed the security tape and jumped directly to the point that judges came up. Then she pressed the pause button again. ¡°If it is a continuous video, but the time changed to 12:01 suddenly. What happened?¡± [Someone tampered with the video?] [Holy crap!

It¡¯s pretty clear something happened in the 16 minutes.¡± The judges all looked gloomy. Finally, someone in the audience couldn¡¯t help it. ¡°It¡¯s not fair! You must show the whole video.¡± ¡°y the full video!¡± ¡°There are shady deals in thepetition!¡± ¡°No nder. No shady deals!¡± For a moment, the audience was very angry, and Selina looked terrible. The staff was also a little embarrassed and said, ¡°That¡¯s the video I got. There is no backup in the monitoring room.¡± He was frightened by the audience. If he had known it earlier, he would not havee to y this video. It was too dangerous.

Selina smiled smugly. She thought, ¡®Cassandra is just pretending, and the security tape had been deleted by my uncle. No way can she restore the video. She¡¯s really overconfident.¡® ¡°Cassandra, even if 16 minutes of video is missing, it doesn¡¯t mean anything. You still giarized. It¡¯s better to quit the game. Don¡¯t humiliate yourself.¡± Selina said smugly. She thought, ¡®Even if they know that there are shady deals in thispetition, my uncle will still help me. These people are just jealous. Cassandra ignored her, and after three minutes, she got the full video. She went to the console and connected theputer to the big screen. The full video was released.

You promised me!¡± In the video, Selina was shaking a man¡¯s hand. ¡°I promised you, and I also told the other two judges to choose you. However, if Jonas saw this bottle of perfume, he would choose Cassandra.¡± ¡°Then don¡¯t let him see it.¡± ¡°What do you want to do?¡± In the video, Selina re¨Cattached the printedbel and took out a bottle of perfume from her bag. She tore off thebel of Cassandra and reced it with her ownbel. Then she carefully put away her perfume, found an empty reagent bottle, poured ¡°Lovesick¡± into the bottle, and attached thebel of Cassandra. In the video, she said proudly, ¡°That will do it.¡± ¡°There are surveince cameras in here. The man reminded her. ¡°Why don¡¯t you just delete it? You are so good anyway.¡± Finally, the four judges entered the room and started toment on the perfumes. Jasmyn and Steven looked embarrassed. They didn¡¯t expect that they would say these words directly in the room. Weren¡¯t they afraid of being heard by others? Selina was shocked, and her face looked pale. ¡°You are lying! You¡¯re setting me up! It¡¯s a fake video!¡± ¡°You giarized and made such a fake video. Cassandra, you are so vicious!¡± Selina¡¯s eyes were flustered and she couldn¡¯t hide it at all. ¡°You know if it¡¯s true.¡± Cassandra looked at her for a while and then turned to the judges. ¡°What about now? Am I right?¡± Selina took out the perfume bottle. Everyone knew what it was. That was ¡°Lovesick¡°, the most ssic work of Magnolia. After so many years, it still ranked first in the sales list.

I thought she had made progress, but¡­¡± ¡°Who are you?¡± Jonas asked. ¡°I¡¯m just a participant.¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t want to announce her identity. Selina was jealous. She hated that Cassandra was so calm. ¡°How could a Clusian make such excellent perfume? It must be fake. You must have bought the perfume from others. You are giarizing.¡± Selina thought, ¡®How could I always lose to a Clusian? Magnolia is also a Clusian. Although I haven¡¯t seen her, she stopped making perfumes. She was the best in the world, but the past is the past. How could Cassandra be so good? She must be cheating! I couldn¡¯t lose to a Clusian forever!¡± Cassandra was speechless. She thought, ¡®Selina has always been second to me. I don¡¯t want to announce my identity. But, it seems that she is not convinced and keeps wasting my time.¡± ¡°Lydia, give me my stuff,¡± Cassandra said to Lydia. Cassandra thought, ¡®Although I don¡¯t have anything from Magnolia Studio, Lydia has.

Neither of them shared their information with their partner. They wanted to give them a surprise. But what they didn¡¯t know was that they were not surprised, but shocked. They got on the ne and switched their mobile phones to flight mode. About 20 minutester, they heard a prompt on the aircraft, ¡°Dear passengers, wee to take a flight of XXX Airlines. The cabin door is about to close. Please recheck your arding pass¡­ Cassandra closed her eyes to rest, but she was a little excited. After all, it¡¯s been a while since she¡¯d seen Keh, and she missed him. The journey ahead would take eight hours, and they were scheduled to arrive in Drieso by morning. The timing seemed just right. Cassandra, a girl nurtured by love, couldn¡¯t help but perk up at the thought of soon reuniting with Keh. She realized she couldn¡¯t bear to be apart from him any longer and wasn¡¯t sure if this was a blessing or a curse! However, just as the flight attendant was about to close the cabin door, a scream broke the silence! ¡°Yawn!¡± ¡°Bang!¡± It looked like someone had fallen. The aircraft door didn¡¯t seem to be closed. Cassandra suddenly opened her eyes and, based on her intuition, could sense that someone had boarded the ne!! They were in first ss, and the boarding gate was between first ss and economy ss. She looked back! A tinkling voice rang out before her curiosity could take hold, ¡°Congrattions! You have been kidnapped!¡± O Chapter 380 Hearing this, everyone was stunned! They were kidnapped before they could take off! It was still on the territory of Spaunia! SheCassandra frowned, feeling slightly annoyed that those idiots were holding her up from getting home. When she was about to turn around and see what happened, she found that a kidnapper had already come in. Wearing camouge attire, his burly frame ented by the submachine gun. clenched firmly in his grasp! The man approached Cassandra curiously and said, ¡°It¡¯s not good to be too curious!¡± The kidnapper¡¯s face was a little indifferent. It would be better not to mess with him first. He put a camera in front of the first¨Css cabin. Cassandra frowned and wondered what these people wanted to do! Before she could figure it out, she heard the people outside shouting excitedly, ¡°Come on, everyone! Say hello to all the watchers around the world! They¡¯re watching you!¡± These individuals were broadcasting live, and someone kept tabs on them! At this time, there was only one person in the first¨Css cabin with a mobile phone in his hand. It seemed that he was watching a live broadcast. Cassandra deliberately made a little noise, and the man stepped forward and wanted to teach her a lesson. His tone was very fierce, ¡°You want to die? You¡¯re courting death!¡± He held the phone in one hand and the gun in the other. His reaction was slower. than others, which gave Cassandra a chance! She suddenly got up, locked his throat directly, and stabbed the silver needle into his neck. He was instantly quiet! Everyone in the first¨Css cabin widened their eyes! ¡°This is awesome! Who is she? Why does she look so familiar?¡® Chapter 380 Cassandra picked up the kidnapper¡¯s phone and looked at it. Unexpectedly, more than 10 million people were watching it! [Damn it!

I guess it¡¯s true!] [Where are the police officers? Call the police, call the police. Why is everyone watching?] [What are so many kidnappers doing? Money or life.] [Wow! I feel so excited and amazing. I think it¡¯s true!] [Why is the picture changing? Where¡¯s the kidnapper in first ss?] [Are you out of your mind? Are you reminding the kidnappers?] [Can you be quiet? Can¡¯t we guarantee that the people on one side are safe?] [I¡¯m speechless. Even if we have to ensure someone¡¯s safety, shouldn¡¯t it be the people in the economy ss? We¡¯re all workers. Those in the economy ss can¡¯t afford to sit in the first ss. Those in the first ss are the ones who deserve it. I think this is punishing the wicked and upholding the righteous.] [Well, I believe you¡¯re beingpletely unreasonable. What exactly do you mean when you say that those in the first ss deserve it? Imagine if one day you have an urgent matter to attend to and all the economy ss tickets are sold out, leaving you with no choice but to take the first ss. In that situation, would anyone offer you sympathy? [I don¡¯t know why. The faces of people in first ss are familiar!] Cassandra didn¡¯t look at it. Instead, she looked at the camera. If the kidnapper did not appear in front of the camera for long, these people would be suspicious. However, he had fainted. What should she do? Cassandra looked at Lydia beside her. Her face was pale with fear, and she dared not move. Cassandra felt, ¡°There are many kidnappers. What should I do? Why the police. have yet to show up?

Lydia calmed down and picked up Cassandra¡¯s phone. ¡°Then what are you going to do?¡± ¡°There are kidnappers outside, and the first¨Css one has fainted. They will soon find out and send others in, so I must deal with them¡­¡± Cassandra thought, ¡®Instead of trusting the police in Spaunia, it is better to believe in ourselves. As long as we contact the embassy and the people in Clusia, they can guarantee our safety.¡± As expected, Cassandra caught wind of the kidnappers outside, whispering that the first¨Css folk weren¡¯t in the shot. It must be Carmelo, the leader¡¯s orders. He assigned two additional individuals to proceed directly to the first¨Css cabin. Cassandra ducked into a corner, realizing that engaging both assants. simultaneously was impossible in such a confined space. If she focused on one, the other would summon reinforcements, making the situation all the more challenging to manage. Fortunately, Cassandra had the habit of carrying silver needles and medicine wherever she went. Some mind¨Caltering drugs she had had proved more effective than any other medication avable on the market. Mere contact with these drugs would render one unconscious. Furthermore, the silver needle was dipped in these potent mind- altering substances, making it even more dangerous. She stabbed the two men who came in unconscious. But from the corner of her eye, she saw people in economy ss looking at her for help. ??? Chapter 380 However, she didn¡¯t dare to show up at all. On the channel, Carmelo appeared in front of the camera! He asked the governments of Spaunia and Clusia to give 20 billion dors each to release the hostages. Otherwise, he would kill them directly! LILEE On the other side, Lydia opened Cassandra¡¯s phone and called her husband. Eddie was discussing the military drill with Keh at this time. Suddenly, his phone rang and he wanted to hang up when he saw it was a strange number. However, Keh grabbed his phone quickly and said indifferently, ¡°Why did Cassie call you?¡± ¡°Keh! Keh!¡± Jeremiah shouted at the top of his voice. He was still holding his phone. It was the scene of the live broadcast. He had just seen Cassandra! He checked the flights and airport surveince in Spaunia. The people on the ne that ine was on had been kidnapped! so As soon as Keh answered the phone, Jeremiah interrupted her. ¡°What are you doing?¡± ¡°Something happened to ine! Her ne got hijacked before it even took off. Everyone is inside!¡± Keh¡¯s expression changed. He heard a voice from the receiver, ¡°Eddie! Eddie! This is Lydia!¡± Keh turned on the speaker and asked, ¡°Lydia?¡± ¡°Keh?¡± ¡°What about Cassie? How are you?¡± Eddie was also frightened, ¡®Cassandra has been kidnapped, and then my wife has also been kidnapped?! What the hell is going on? Why is this happening?¡® ¡°Come and help us.

She thought, ¡®Cassandra said before that even if the phone was on an airne model, they could find the location. I wondered if it could be found!¡± However, Lydia¡¯s voice spread across the channel, and the kidnappers naturally heard it. Although many people didn¡¯t understand Clusian, they couldn¡¯t help wondering what their men were doing Carmelo decided to go in and see for himself, followed by three others! When he opened the door, he saw three people lying on the ground. Cassandra hadn¡¯t had time to deal with them yet. Cassandra was speechless. Chapter 381 Carmelo pointed a gun at her and said to her, ¡°Who are you? What did you do to them? You don¡¯t want to live! Put your hands up!¡± Cassandra reacted swiftly, raising her gun instantly and aiming it at him. However, due to the difference between being outnumbered and having a numerical advantage, she could only use this to intimidate her opponent. She asked, ¡°Who are you? What do you want?¡± Standing at the helm of the first¨Css cabin, Carmelo was steaming mad. He couldn¡¯t help but wonder, ¡®Who is this chick? How did she manage to take down my guys so easily?¡± ¡°You are courting death!¡± Carmelo was furious!! ¡°You don¡¯t have the final say. Instead of waiting for Spaunia and Clusia to reply, you should tell me your terms directly. Only one person in this world is richer than me.¡± Cassandra negotiated with him in their language. Just now, she had heard they wanted money, creating panic. They kidnapped the people on the ne and took control of Spaunia¡¯s only cross¨Csea bridge! They wanted to blow the only cross¨Csea bridge up! This was no different from a terrorist attack! But for some reason, they chose a ne with mostly Clusian passengers! ¡°Are you the richest person in the world?¡± Carmelo perked up. Even though he was still gesturing towards Cassandra, his anger seemed to have vanished into thin air. ¡°I¡¯m not the richest person in the world, but I¡¯m certainly up there in the top few. If you¡¯re after money, I¡¯ll hand over 40 billion dors. Just promise to let everyone. on this ne go free,¡± Cassandra said, her tone sharp. She thought, ¡®I am not the wealthiest person in the world, but I had a boyfriend. who could afford it. Even if you survive to collect the cash, you must survive to spend it, too.¡® ¡°Girl, it¡¯s not a good habit to be boastful. If you brag so much, will you get pped?¡± Carmeloughed loudly at her bragging! ¡°Am I bragging? You¡¯ll know it if you try.¡± Cassandra snorted.

They¡¯re demanding such a huge amount so that everyone can get a share. ×Ô52%±¸ Chapter 381 If Clusia and Spaunia had given them money, they could reach 4 billion dors. It¡¯s a pretty sweet deal. Carmelo was shocked by Cassandra¡¯s sneer. He thought. Is she wealthy? Wouldn¡¯t it be even better if I had all the money from her and the money from Clusia and Spaunia in my hands?¡± ¡°Since you said you are rich, prove it to me!¡± ¡°How will I prove it?¡± Cassandra asked. ¡°Of course, it¡¯s proof of assets. What else could it be?¡± Because of Carmelo¡¯s appearance, Cassandra was also on camera, and theizens all went wild! [Oh my God, what¡¯s going on? Isn¡¯t this Cassandra? Isn¡¯t she in Clusia?] [No. No. Professor Yates asked for leave and went to Spaunial] [Damn it Can¡¯t this be true? Cassandra won¡¯t y the part, will she?] [Why not? Cassandra has a huge following now. Maybe some talent agency has already approached her.] [Forget it. With Cassandra¡¯s current status, does she need to enter the showbiz? Besides, it was not for acting!] [Don¡¯t be ridiculous. Cassandra fans. Don¡¯t you think it is exaggerated: Cassandra said that she ranked second in terms of assets. Do you believe it? If it¡¯s not acting. I will eat my hat with an inverted position!!! [Anyway, I don¡¯t believe this is an act. I will wait for you to eat your hat!¡°] [Look carefully! It doesn¡¯t look like an act at all. I think I saw my rtives in it!] [I also see my uncle. What¡¯s going on?] ¡°Yes, but I need to get myputer. Cassandra¡¯s tone was calm.

Clusia¡¯s diplomat, Landin Stanwix, had arrived by this time, even before the O Chapter 381 police. ¡°Sirs, I¡¯m Clusia¡¯s diplomat in Spaunia. We can meet your requirements if you don¡¯t hurt the hostages!¡± The people outside looked worried. What¡¯s going on? They could see that there were still two handles on the door of the cabin! ¡°There are more than 200 passengers and staff in the ne, all Clusians.

Lydia was a little scared, and her tone trembled slightly. She told Cassandra, ¡°Oh, I¡¯m a little afraid. If I die, you can¡¯t let Eddie marry someone else!¡± Cassandraforted her softly, ¡°Lydia, don¡¯t worry. I won¡¯t let anything happen to you. ¡°Cut the crap and check your ounts!¡± Carmelo didn¡¯t care about Cassandra¡¯s threat at all! He wanted money! Cassandra red viciously at Carmelo, sat there, and began to operate. She thought, If these people wanted money, they wouldn¡¯t hurt Lydia for now, Fortunately, I had good computer skills. When I turned on theputer and opened the interface of the World Bank, I had already changed the data in my ount. It was all an illusion. But when these people saw the numbers, they were like seeing real money. Their eyes lit up, and they forgot they were hijacking the ne. Seeing so much money, Carmelo couldn¡¯t help but be excited! ¡°You are wealthy. Transfer the money to me, and I let you and your best friend go. What do you think?¡± Carmelo became greedy. He wanted this woman¡¯s money, and so did Clusia and Spaunia! Cassandra¡¯s face darkened, thinking what to do! ¡®Greedy people will be easily persuaded! As long as they turned against each other,. there might be a slim chance of survival!¡® ¡°If I were you, wouldn¡¯t it be better to split the money among three instead of ten? Now everyone knows about our live stream. Do you think your men will have the same mindset as you?¡± At this time, Cassandra seemed to be very grateful that they had started the 52% Chapter 382 livestream. She thought, ¡®I had just knocked down three people in the first¨Css cabin. Only four people were in the economy ss cabin, let alone two people standing outside. The leader was at least the strongest among the three, so they were evenly matched. It shouldn¡¯t matter anymore! Instead of waiting for help, let them bite. each other because of the money. Egoists, for cash, can they care about the lives of their companions?¡® ¡°There are 50 billion dors in my ount. I believe this is a number that will attract everyone¡¯s attention.

But with so many people and guns, I stand no chance against them. I can¡¯tpete with a weapon.¡± Carmelo was rxed, and his expression changed a little. He felt that what Cassandra said was right. He looked at the two people behind him and seemed to be persuaded. As long as Cassandra said it, people in economy¨Css cabins would hear it. Maybe they thought the same thing. Landin was also watching the live broadcast outside. When the kidnapper changed, he immediately asked the sniper and Clusian police with guns behind him to prepare for it. Once the gunfire starts inside, they would immediately take action. and deal with the people outside. ¡°People outside can hear what I say. But since you are brothers, forget it.¡± Cassandra continued to fan the mes, making it easier for them to believe the people outside were untrustworthy and wanted to steal the money.

Now, they were banking on the fact that these passengers didn¡¯t speak Clusian. ¡°Everyone, get down!¡± At the moment of the gunshot, he roared out! They started shooting at gunpoint. They didn¡¯t dare to hurt Clusian. Otherwise, they would die for money, so their guns were fired from a high altitude. The hostages were also hiding aside! There were gunshots on the channel. Keh, Eddie, and Jeremiah could hardly sit still! ¡®What if innocent people are hurt? It¡¯s too risky!¡® they thought. About a minuteter, all the kidnappers in first ss were dead except for Carmelo. It was not because he was strong but because he caught aatose kidnapper as a human shield and took the bullets for him. Carmelo was the only one in the first¨Css cabin, and it seemed there was no movement from the economy cabins. ¡®If I didn¡¯t hear it wrong, they had already dealt with the two outside. That was to say, this man was the only one left among all the kidnappers! That¡¯s not easy to solve?!¡® Cassandra thought, [They really shoot!] [Damn it!

She encouraged the kidnappers to kill each other. What if she hurts Clusian? Can she afford it?] [Are you out of your mind? If Cassandra doesn¡¯t do anything, they won¡¯t kill people. Haven¡¯t you noticed the hostages in the economy and first¨Css cabins?] [How dare you scold Cassandra? You are an idiot! Can you see if there are any casualties first?] Carmelo looked at Cassandra and put his gun to her head. ¡°Now, now! Give me the money!¡± ¡®Everyone¡¯s dead, and all the money is mine!¡® he thought. ¡°Alright,¡± Cassandra hissed under her breath, ¡°But I don¡¯t like it when someone aims a gun at my noggin!¡± After saying that, she tilted her head and quickly controlled Carmelo! She was fast. Before Carmelo could react, he was controlled by Cassandra! She stabbed Carmelo unconscious with one needle! ¡®Phew. I finally solved it!¡® Cassandra thought.

After Lydia heard that it was safe inside, she rushed out and held Cassandra tightly. ¡°Oh, Cassandra, it gave me a huge fright!

Even after being with Eddie for many years, she had never encountered such a harrowing situation! Chapter 383 ¡°It¡¯s okay. I won¡¯t let anything happen to you.¡± Cassandra softlyforted her. Cassandra thought, ¡®Lydia came with me, so I couldn¡¯t let anything happen to her. She must be frightened this time. ¡°You are the best; staying by your side is safer!¡± Lydia thought, ¡®It was amazing. Most folks would¡¯ve freaked out, but she took down three dudes and manipted the kidnappers. ¡°Mr. Stanwix, thank you for your help. Let¡¯s get off the ne first,¡± Cassandra nodded to Landin and left with Lydia. The uing withdrawal was solely in the diplomat¡¯s hands, and Cassandra had no option but to trust him. It was lucky to be able to guarantee that these people were alive. Under the guidance of the staff, everyone on the ne got off again. After the disaster, they felt fresh air again. There was a sense of unreality. The only ufortable thing they were in Spaunia. They had been saved. The special police of the National Security Bureau in Spaunia just arrived, and Landin was very angry. ¡°I need your leaders to give Clusia an exnation. They didn¡¯t show up for such a long time. What do you mean by showing up now?¡± The police chief was also speechless. This was not what they thought. These people. were too terrifying and even life¨Cthreatening. They were lives, so they didn¡¯t dare to rush ahead! ¡°Mr. Stanwix, let¡¯s talk this over calmly. When we got the news, it was already veryte, so we arrived sote. It¡¯s an unfortunate incident, but fortunately, it had a happy ending, didn¡¯t it?¡± Landin had seen shameless people before, but he had never seen such a shameless person! ¡°Humph, even if the ending is happy, it¡¯s still my Clusian bravery. It has nothing to do with you! But you have to give me an exnation. Why did the kidnapper enter the airport and get on a ne?!¡± Landin was very angry now.

Is it true?¡± ¡°Excuse me, were you acting or really kidnapped this time?¡± ¡°Has the person in charge of Spaunia appeared? Would you be able to exin it? Why are there so many kidnappers at the airport?¡± There were many questions. Landin answered thoughtfully, ¡°I also hope this kidnapping is a military drill and an organized drill. Unfortunately, it is indeed a real case. As for why the kidnappers entered the airport, we need the head of the Spaunia to exin to Clusia. In addition, no casualties have been found yet. If there are any problems in the future, we will let you know as soon as possible. I hope everyone can keep calm.¡± Landin didn¡¯t talk nonsense with these people. He had to return to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and arrange amodation for everyone. They were Clusians. He must treat them well. ***** Cassandra and Lydia were arranged in two adjacent rooms, which Landin arranged after receiving the order. One was the wife of Colonel Frey, and the other was Mr. Zelinski¡¯s girlfriend. They were both family members of national officials. And Mr. Stanwix cannot be negligent. At midnight, Cassandra felt that there was someone in the room. She immediately sat up alertly! This was the conste. /How could anyonee in here? ¡°Who are you!?¡± Cassandra asked sharply. Chapter 383 Keh was a little relieved. He didn¡¯t expect Cassie to be so alert, so he said softly, ¡°Cassie, it¡¯s me.¡± It was Keh! Cassandra rxed her guard and asked, ¡°Keh?¡± When she turned on the light, it was indeed Keh who she had been thinking about. She felt relieved, and he finally came. ¡°Cassie, I¡¯m sorry for beingte.¡± Keh was very guilty. For the first time, he felt that distance was such a nasty thing. No matter how fast it was, it would take five hours from Clusia to Spaunia. The time was too long, and there might have been idents at any time. If Cassie hadn¡¯t been alert enough, how many people would have died this time and whether she would be in danger were unpredictable. ¡°Rx, this distance is a little far, but you are here, we¡¯ll have your backup on the way back, making us feel very safe.¡± Only then did Cassandra let go of her guard and showed her true self to Keh. Today, on the ne, she was gambling. If the kidnappers¡® brotherhood was indestructible, then everything would be futile, and it would even speed up their hunting time. At that time, it would be irreversible. However, she had no other option but to save herself. Clusia¡¯s Foreign Minister hade long ago, but the people of Spaunia did not show up for a long time and didn¡¯t even make any movement. Counting on them would only mean waiting for death! ¡°I¡¯m sorry to put you in danger,¡± Keh med himself deeply. In the future, he wouldn¡¯t leave so far away and let this happen again. Keh held her in his arms andforted her softly. Next door, Lydia cried out when she saw her husband. She was scared so much, but she couldn¡¯t make trouble for Cassandra! ¡®Why is Eddieing now?!¡® Lydia thought. ¡°Be good, Lydia.

Keh hit them all crazily, and nothing was good on their bodies. Yannick even felt miserable when he saw them crying for help from Keh. He thought, ¡°They deserved it. How dare they hurt Cassandra? Keh loves Cassandra so much! This is jumping on Keh¡¯s bottom line. No matter whether they did it intentionally or not, they have to die. After hearing this, Cassandra felt it was almost the same as her guess. She nodded. and said, ¡°That¡¯s bad luck for them. They met me on the ne. Fortunately, the ne didn¡¯t take off. Otherwise, there would be no chance to escape. ¡°Yeah. If it weren¡¯t for you, how many people would have died this time?¡± Keh praised without hesitation. Seeing that Cassandra was fine, Marcus felt relieved. He thought, [What a worrisome girl! How dare she confront the kidnappers? She wants to die!] Çú SEND GIFT 0 Chapter 385 Chapter 385 Cassandra was embarrassed by the sudden praise. ¡°I didn¡¯t do anything. I just wanted to buy you some time at that time.¡± When Cassandra first started, it was because a person came into the first¨Css cabin and would threaten their lives at any time. It was useless to be merciful with the kidnappers. What¡¯s more, if she couldn¡¯t deal with a kidnapper, she might as well knock herself out. She would not have done the following things. If these people could ask for so much money, what else would they do except for money? She was rich enough to deal with them and provoke their rtionship. They set up the livestream, didn¡¯t they? Economy and first ss were connected, or she wouldn¡¯t have had a chance to say that. She had no choice but to make a move at first. But she faced the threatter, so she needed to negotiate with them, especially after knowing they wanted money. It would be much easier. The best way for these people to be uncoordinated is to let them kill each other. ¡°Cassie, don¡¯t put yourself in danger again.¡± On the channel, when he saw the kidnapper leader with a gun facing her, his heart. suddenly stopped. Keh was afraid that these people would kill her, but Cassie could react very quickly to what they wanted and responded quickly. Such a reaction ability was beyond others¡® capabilities. He held Cassandra in his arms and burying his head in her neck and sniffing the subtle fragrance on her body. ¡°I won¡¯t do it again. Once is enough,¡± Cassandra couldn¡¯t helpughing. The atmosphere suddenly eased, and Keh couldn¡¯t help but say, ¡°You are famous now.¡± Cassandra was a little confused, ¡®How do I be famous?¡® She tilted her head and looked at Keh, somewhat confused. Under the authorities¡® guidance, her behavior at that time was quick and clever, ? O Chapter 385 highlighting Clusian¡¯s wisdom. But Cassandra didn¡¯t care much about it. ¡°When will we return home?¡± That was what Cassandra cared about. Getting home was the most important thing. What happened online was their business. It had nothing to do with her. ¡°By the way, Timothy and Cyrus seem to be here. Can you help me check where they are?¡± Keh hadn¡¯t answered her question, but it reminded her that they were back. Keh raised his eyebrows and thought, ¡®Why do they return so soon?¡® ¡°Isn¡¯t it a little fast?¡± Keh was a little dissatisfied. ¡°Well, after all, the night passed. When they had something, I also went there overnight,¡± Cassandra said reasonably. After all, they were a family, so there was no need for any sentimentality. Keh was silent. It seemed that he wasn¡¯tforted at all. 77 Suddenly, Yannick said, ¡°Timothy and Cyrus are here. Mr. Stanwix asked if he should let them in.¡± ¡°Let them in. They are here,¡± Cassandra was a little pleased. Keh could only nod his head so as not to ruin her good mood. After Timothy and Cyrus arrived, they were relieved that Cassandra was in good shape. Timothy did what he said and scolded Cassandra for a whole hour. Cassandra also listened patiently, but after Timothy finished speaking, Keh¡¯s face darkened! His facepletely darkened. How could Cassie be so scolded by others without a single word of concern? He didn¡¯t care about Cassandra at all. However, Timothy didn¡¯t care at all. He thought, ¡®Cassandra needs to face the consequences of her actions. No one can rein her in now. If she dared to confront the kidnappers this time, she would undoubtedly attempt to eliminate them next. 52%ºÏ SUL, 23 Mar Chapter 385 She seemspletely unfazed by the prospect of death! How can she be so reckless? He has to ensure that she has learned a lesson this time so that she will remember it in the future!¡± At four o¡¯clock in the afternoon, Landin invited them to a meeting. There were two things. First, the head of the Spaunia didn¡¯t have to exin the hijack and tell them what to do next. Second, when would these 200 people be escorted back? Keh¡¯s face was indifferent and severe, as was Eddie¡¯s.. Were the persons of Spaunia going to keep quiet? ¡°Anyway, the head of the Spaunia must give us an exnation for this matter. If they can¡¯t give it to us, I will let Mr. Presidente and ask him in person when I return. Let me see how long they can y dumb!¡± Keh was furious. This matter couldn¡¯t be settled easily A well¨Corganized and premeditated operation indicated the failure of Spaunia¡¯s security! ¡°I know. I will personally call the president of Spaunia and ask for an exnation,¡± Landin responded. ¡°But now, what should we do with the 200 Clusians?¡± This was the biggest problem. Should we let them take the current flight back or wait here? ¡°I¡¯ve requested Air Clusia to dispatch another ne here. They will take the new ne back, and the ne will arrive in the evening. Organize everyone to return home tomorrow.¡± Keh said indifferently. ¡°Well, I received the same instruction. At 7 pm (Spaunia time), the flight of Air Clusia will arrive at the airport, and everyone will be organized to board the ne at 7 am tomorrow to ensure everyone returns home safely. ¡°On this return, the Falcon Special Operations Force, the Air Force and the Marine Corps will escort them home to ensure they are safe. In addition, only those who have registered can get on the ne this time. No one else is allowed to do so,¡± Eddie arranges. Landin nodded. It was the best way. 12:28 Sat, 23 Mar ti G Chapter 385 Things were settled; they just waited for the time toe. The following day, when everyone got on the ne as they wished and returned to Drieso International Airport of Clusia, they finally felt a sense of belonging!

Harper looked at the two brothers in front of him with a trace of resentment. He heard the recording. Cassandra could treat him and his mother because Theodore said they got poisoned because of Cassandra. Cassandra, unwilling to return at first, was even more reluctant now.

Think about it, he was really a bit sad! Cassandra didn¡¯t know what the others were thinking or doing, but Keh went home like crazy. Just because before they got on the ne, he saw a bruise on Cassandra¡¯s body, as if she had been scratched by something on the ne. So Keh was nervous about her so much. In Pinehart Mansion, all the corners and edges were wrapped up. The initially simple and elegant decoration of the whole living room was now covered with a pink anti¨Ccollision film. Cassandra wondered, ¡°What does this mean? ¡°What are you doing?¡± Cassandra asked. ¡°You¡¯re injured now. Wrap up the edges and corners to avoid secondary injury.¡± Keh took it for granted. He even felt that he had just learned about this now. Cassandra was speechless. ¡°Have you ever thought putting this on is ugly?¡± Cassandra looked at the anti- collision film in circles with amusement. She thought, ¡®Shouldn¡¯t it be prepared for a toddler at home? Why he¡¯s preparing these for her.¡± She nced at her bruise helplessly. ¡®There is no need to fuss about a wound that didn¡¯t even need gauze. This wound has almost healed if it isn¡¯t for the inspection. ¡°You¡¯d better be careful. Your hand is injured, and we should pay more attention to it,¡± Keh said a lot of painstakingly, telling all the advantages of putting on the i anti¨Ccollision film. Cassandra actually listened to it carefully. ¡°But¡­ It¡¯s hideous, don¡¯t you think?¡± Cassandra looked ttering. ¡®Are you certain we can¡¯t dismantle this thing? It¡¯s great furniture, but all taped up Chapter 246 like this? It¡¯s a bit pass¨¦.¡± ¡°No. I think it¡¯s good.¡± Keh took it for granted. Looking at them now, he suddenly felt that there should be more children in Pinehart Mansion in the future to make it lively. He and Cassie¡¯s children must grow up in their parents¡® love. Because they had never enjoyed family affection, their children must have, and they would never be separated. Keh was thinking too much. Cassandra had nothing to say. As long as he thought it was good, that would be fine. Anyway, this was his home. Keh suddenly thought of something and handed her an invitation on the coffee table ¡°What is this?¡± Looks interesting. ¡°This is an invitation to the perfumepetition and the items sent along with it. It said that there was a letter from the Perfume Association. You can have a look. He signed it yesterday, but he forgot it for a moment. Good morning!

I just came back, and you want to trick me into going to Spaunia again? Don¡¯t even think about it. A letter from the Perfume Association. She always had a bad feeling. Upon opening the envelope, she found a letter of appointment from the Perfume Association, offering her the position of chairwoman. Cassandra was a little helpless, and she didn¡¯t want to. She called Lester and wanted to refuse the chairwoman¡¯s position, but he misled. her. Lester said, ¡°I¡¯ve seen you sign for it 24 hours ago. After that, you will agree by default. When will you come over and go through the formalities?¡± Cassandra was silent. He was forcing her to be the chairwoman. ¡°I don¡¯t agree; I don¡¯t want to. You can change someone else.¡± Cassandra refused. ¡°Cassandra, I can¡¯t do it anymore. The Perfume Association cannot be handed over to people with ulterior motives. That will destroy it. Only you can make good perfume withoutpeting for it. You can¡¯t refuse me.¡± Lester said himself as pitiful as possible, refusing to give Cassandra any chance to reject him. This went against his original intention. Magnolia was the most gifted perfumer he had ever seen, and it was also a myth- creating perfumer. Therefore, she should not just be a perfumer but also lead the Perfume Association to higher heights. Cassandra was speechless. ¡°Mr. Hawks, I¡¯m not suitable for it,¡± said her. She never thought of managing the Perfume Association. 52% Chapter 387 ¡°Cassandra, I¡¯m not in a hurry. Can you think about it first?¡± Lester also took a step back. He could tell that Cassandra was unwilling to do so. However, he couldn¡¯t find a suitable sessor, let alone someone who loved perfuming. Nowadays, people put interests first. He was worried about it. He could work for another two years and persuade Magnolia when she was older. ¡°All right, you can look for others as well.¡± Cassandra hung up the phone. This was good, but Cassandra didn¡¯t want to be so troublesome. She was the most. afraid of trouble, so she did not want to impose more identities on herself. Keh looked at Cassandra with honor. This was the girl he liked. No matter what field she was in, she shone brightly and was the most dazzling existence. Keh wanted her to stand tall, and he also tried his best to catch up with her so that everyone could see how excellent she was. Those who abandoned her would. regret it. Cassandra turned around and saw Keh¡¯s admiring face. She was a little stunned, ¡°Keh, what happened?¡± Keh calmed down, walked up to Cassie, and stroked her hair, ¡°Nothing.

Reporters wanted to ask about Cassandra¡¯s things but were turned away by Professor Kaptur. ¡°As for the kidnapping a few days ago, Professor Yates said nothing. She won¡¯te here during this period. It would be best if you all left now. If you are blocking the door, don¡¯t me me for being rude.¡± This group of reporters was the most annoying. They all liked to guard at the door and dig out the so¨C called first¨Chand information. However, they had no bottom line and caused trouble to others. They thought that they were the incarnation of justice and restored news. That was what Professor Kaptur hated most. When the reporters wanted to ask more questions, Professor Kaptur asked them to leave. *****On the other side, Cassandra directly chose to call the police. She was not soft on those reporters who kept calling and inquiring about her address. The fact that Cassandra called the police also became a trending topic. [Is it necessary?

It was not until a weekter that no interview came out and allizens knew that Cassandra was telling the truth. She turned down every interview. She¡¯s pretty straightforward. Cassandra hasn¡¯t been disturbed by anyone this week. In a sh, it was Christmas, and Keh became increasingly busy. He and Eddie began to discuss the battle n of the military drill every day, wanting to give their soldiers a hard workout. They were too familiar with each other, so they were going to make this battle n together. In December, Drieso was already covered with snow. In the weather of ten degrees below zero, Cassandra rarely went out. When Cassandra woke up in the morning, she found a big tree at the door of Pinehart Mansion. If she¡¯s not mistaken, it should be a Christmas tree. Before Cassandra could react, William came over with two people. William said, ¡°Hurry up! Put these lights on and¡­¡± William suddenly stopped talking because he saw Cassandraing. Minutes for William didn¡¯t expect Cassandra to wake up so early today. Normally she wouldn¡¯t be awake for at least another half hour. It would have taken only ten two workers to decorate the colored lights. But the Christmas tree hadn¡¯t even decorated before Cassandra found it. This made William feel that he was a failure as the housekeeper. ¡°William¡­¡± Cassandra said. ¡°Ms. Yates, you¡¯re awake. Susan has prepared breakfast for you. You can eat first.¡± William was trying to find a way to get her to leave. ¡®Ms. Yates didn¡¯t ask me about this tree, so she probably didn¡¯t hear me,¡® William thought. William was still secretly rejoicing. However, Cassandra suddenly asked, ¡°Why did you get such a big tree?¡± William was embarrassed that he thought Cassandra hadn¡¯t noticed the tree. ¡°Ms. Yates, it¡¯s Christmas today. There must be a festive atmosphere, right?¡± 12:29 Sat, 23 Mar G Chapter 388 William said. 52%ºÏ Although they didn¡¯t use to celebrate Christmas in Pinehart Mansion, this year was different. Cassandra, the mistress of Pinehart Mansion, was back. It must be noisy and lively in Pinehart Mansion this year. ¡°But Keh is busy these days,¡± Cassandra said. She wondered why they were decorating the tree when Keh wasn¡¯ting back for the holidays. William was speechless. Didn¡¯t Cassandra know that this was what Keh meant? Keh wanted Cassandra to feel at home, so he told William to decorate the house and they were able to spend the holiday together. William thought, ¡®Mr. Zelinski ising back tonight. Doesn¡¯t Ms. Yates know that? But it looks like she doesn¡¯t know. Forget it. Maybe Mr. Zelinski wants to give her a surprise, so I¡¯d better stop talking nonsense.¡± ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter. It is a holiday anyway, so you don¡¯t need to care about these details.¡± William didn¡¯t even know what he said. ¡°Ms. Yates, go to have breakfast first. We can handle this.¡± Then Cassandra left. After she finished breakfast, she just watched them get busy. She thought it was kinda fun. Soon, they finished their work. The Pinehart Mansion was decorated in a festive atmosphere. Cassandra was a little curious as she looked around. Because it was her first Christmas since she grew up, she hadn¡¯t celebrated any holidays before and all the festivals were her busiest time. Later, she got used to being busy and stopped celebrating any holidays. At 6 o¡¯clock in the afternoon, Keh, who had been back at midnight these days, suddenly returned. Cassandra felt a little strange. Why did hee back so early today? ¡°I¡¯ming back today to spend Christmas with you,¡± Keh whispered. Keh felt that he owed Cassandra a lot. This week, he didn¡¯t have much time to apany Cassandra. The end of the year was his busiest time. O Chapter 388 ¡°Actually, you don¡¯t have to be so troublesome. I don¡¯t care much about the festival. You¡¯ve been busy recently. Don¡¯t worry about me.¡± Cassandra smiled. Although her heart was touched, she didn¡¯t want him to dy business because of an insignificant holiday at this time. ¡°It¡¯s been a long time since we¡¯ve had a proper meal together. In two days, I may not be back for half a month. At that time, we will never see each other again.¡± Keh felt a little ufortable when he thought that the military drill would start in three days. But that¡¯s his job, and it¡¯s also an ount to the country and the masses. This military drillsted for half a month. There was no way to celebrate the New Year with Cassandra, nor to greet it with her. Therefore, Keh would spare as much time as possible to have dinner with Cassie. ¡°Well then, what are we going to eat?¡± Cassandra thought Keh had a point. She misses him when she¡¯s away from him for three days, let alone fifteen days without seeing him, it¡¯s torture. ¡°I know a good French restaurant.¡± Keh chuckled pleasantly. ¡°Okay,¡± Cassandra said. ¡°Then shall we invite Lydia and the others?¡± Cassandra suddenly found that she hadn¡¯t seen Lydia since she came back, and she didn¡¯t even receive her WhatsApp message. This was really weird. Kehughed slightly. Lydia simply didn¡¯t have the time right now. In order to punish Lydia, Eddie did not let her out of bed for several days. As for how to make her stay in bed¡­. Eddie had been showing off in front of Keh every day. ¡°Don¡¯t worry. You will see her in two days. When Eddie went with him to conduct the military drill, he would let Lydia leave. Cassandra was confused, but she just nodded. Lydia must be frightened and sheforted at her in¨C laws¡® house. Lydia was very happy. Chapter 388 +6 Keh took Cassandra to the French restaurant. The decoration was romantic and the atmosphere was very immersive. Cassandra loves the atmosphere of this restaurant.

This was probably the most romantic date they¡¯d ever had. And Keh opened a bottle of wine. As they were leaving after dinner, they met Kayden. ¡°Cassie, youe out for dinner, too. It¡¯s a coincidence. Kayden greeted her warmly. Since Cassandra didn¡¯t reject him, he had returned to his previous appearance, ¡°Is your injury better now?¡± Cassandra nodded. ¡°It¡¯s healed.¡± It wasn¡¯t an injury at all; it was just exaggerated by Keh. Kayden breathed a sigh of relief and said, ¡°That¡¯s good. You can¡¯t be hurt, or Keh will go crazy, and even Mr. Walker may get even with kidnappers.¡± Daniel from the National Security Bureau was unhappy with the Falcon Special Operations Force and scolded them every day, saying that they couldn¡¯t even protect their people. He also asked them to put the kidnappers on trial immediately and execute the three kidnappers. Çú Chapter 389 Chapter 389 Cassandra smiled lightly. She had heard about what Daniel had done, and it was she who came forward to appease him. Even Lucas couldn¡¯t let it go, thinking that the rescue was not in ce. But it¡¯s not their fault. On the contrary, without their protection, there may be a lot of problems. Mr. Walker and Lucas were just so concerned about her that they were so angry. Kayden and Cassandra were chatting, and Keh couldn¡¯t stand it anymore. What was wrong with Kayden? Why did he keep talking? ¡°We have something else to do, so we should go back first,¡± Keh said in a low voice. Kayden rolled his eyes and said, ¡°Okay. You can go back then. I¡¯m going back too.¡± He suddenly thought of something, ¡°Keh, I have something to tell you. I¡¯ll go back with you.¡± Keh was speechless. ¡°Drive yourself,¡± Keh said. At this time, if Kayden had something to say, it was about thepany or the army. Keh couldn¡¯t refuse. Kayden said, ¡°Okay. Driving wasn¡¯t difficult for him. Çé¼ö They were driving down the road in their car when Keh suddenly mmed on the brakes There was a squeal of brakes. It was alreadyte at night. The road was quiet and empty. Suddenly, arge truck rushed straight to Keh¡¯s car at a horrible speed. Just after Keh braked, Cassandra came back to her senses and watched all this with a cold face. She looked at Keh and asked, ¡°What happened?¡± ¡°It seems that someone did it on purpose, Keh said. Kayden was also startled. He stopped quickly and tried to get out of the car to check what was going on. But many people came out of the back of the truck. They all held guns and shot at Chapter 389 them randomly. Keh¡¯s face was cold. These people spared no effort to kill him, so he took out all the weapons in the car. ¡°Cassie, I¡¯m sorry to put you in danger again, Keh said apologetically. These people came for Keh, and he thought that Cassandra was implicated by him again. ¡°What are you thinking? I¡¯m with you. Will your enemy let me go?¡± Cassandra said. Of course not. They didn¡¯t deliberately hide their rtionship, so it was easy for others to investigate.. It¡¯s better to fight in two than to fight alone. And there¡¯s another one. Kayden was in the back. Fortunately, Keh and Kayden were both soldiers. They would keep weapons in the car in case of idents. However, there were so many enemies that they didn¡¯t know what to do for a while. Keh looked at the car roof almost simultaneously with Cassandra. The car roof could be opened and the small amount of ammunition that Keh took out can be thrown out from the car roof. ¡°Let me do it.¡± Keh said, ¡°I¡¯ll change seats with you. You drive the car and I will handle these people.¡± The two of them cooperated tacitly and changed their seats. Cassandra drove the car to those people and opened the roof of the car. Keh quickly threw ammunition out, and Cassandra drove back again. ¡°Bang!¡± A big spark exploded. to Kayden was ready join the fight, but he only had one person. It was not convenient for him. ¡°Shit, I should have brought Yannick and the others together,¡± Kaydenined in anger. ¡°Enemies casualties. Let¡¯s get out of the car.¡± Keh called Kayden and asked him Chapter 389 to cooperate. Without saying a word. Kayden drove the car across the road. He opened the door and leaned against the car. It seems that the car was going to be scrapped. Keh also got out of the car. He and Kayden continued to fight with enemies. Cassandra didn¡¯t get out of the car until every enemy was down. Keh¡¯s car was explosion¨Cproof and bulletproof, so Cassandra was safer inside and could even interfere with the enemy¡¯s line of sight. Cassandra walked out and ran to them in a hurry, ¡°Are you two okay?¡± ¡°I¡¯m fine,¡± Kayden said excitedly. Keh just shook his head lightly and was about to say something when two people suddenly stood up from the ground. One man shot at Cassandra, and one shot at Keh. The man who shot at Keh didn¡¯t give Keh a chance to dodge. He even fired several rounds, but Keh quickly dodged it all. Then Keh ran towards Cassandra. Only a gunshot was heard, Cassandra was pushed back, and Kayden was shot and fell to the ground. Cassandra knocked her head on the ground as she fell to the ground. Suddenly, a lot of scenes that had never appeared shed in her mind. She couldn¡¯t see Leonardo¡¯s face. Her head hurt, and she couldn¡¯t stand it and fainted. Kayden was also fainted, but when he passed out, there was a smile on his face. In the hospital. Cassandra had a slight concussion. After resting for a while, she would be fine when she woke up. It¡¯s just that Kayden was badly hurt. He was shot in the stomach. His wound was bleeding too much and he was in danger. Chapter 389 The wards of Cassandra and Kayden were next to each other, so Keh could take care of them easily. Yannick and Lamont had already gone to find the culprit. The next day, Cassandra woke up in time to find Keh wiping her hands.

After the doctor said there was nothing wrong. Keh felt relieved. Cassandra looked around and asked, ¡°Keh, where¡¯s Kayden?¡± She still remembered that scene. At that time, she couldn¡¯t avoid it because Keh¡¯s bullet missed and came toward her. She dodged one shot and another was difficult to dodge. She had been prepared for injury. However, she didn¡¯t expect that Kayden would push her directly and then use hist body to take the bullet. She seemed to remember something else. But now she had a headache and was confused. ¡°Kayden is in the ward next to you.¡± Keh looked a little unhappy. The woman he loved most was saved by his friend. He would never forget this in his life, but he was worried that if the Yates family threatened Cassandra with this, it might disgust her. Cassandra nodded gently, ¡°Then I¡¯ll go and see him.¡± After all, it was Kayden who saved her life. There was no reason for her not to have a look at him. Moreover, doctors in the hospital use very ordinary prescriptions and won¡¯t take medicine ording to the characteristics of patients. Therefore, it was better for her to see him..

SEND GIFT COMMENT Chapter 390 COMMENT 527 Chapter 390 Yasmine looked worried, and even Jessica didn¡¯t look well. Kayden was lying there, never waking up. It could be imagined how seriously he had been injured this time. Cassandra was a little embarrassed when she saw them. After all, they hadn¡¯t gotten along very well before, and she didn¡¯t do what they wanted, but now Kayden saved her. Realizing this, she was a little frustrated. Yasmine felt that someone was at the door, so she turned around and walked up when she saw Cassandra. She took Cassandra¡¯s hand and looked around, her eyes full of worry. ¡°What happened to you? Why did you get involved in the man thing? Did you hurt yourself?¡± There was no me in Yasmine¡¯s tone. Instead, she was surprised and worried when Cassandra woke up. Cassandra was overwhelmed by Yasmine¡¯s reaction. She looked at Yasmine nkly. Before she could speak, Jessica also came up and pulled Cassandra over from Yasmine¡¯s hand, ¡°Let me see. Are you okay? What did the doctor say? Is there any sequ?¡± Cassandra looked at Keh in a daze. ¡®What¡¯s going on? Shouldn¡¯t they me me? After all, Kayden hadn¡¯t woken up yet because of me. Seeing that Cassandra had been silent for a long time, Yasmine thought Cassandra still had some symptoms, so she was inexplicably worried. ¡°Call the doctor,¡± Yasmine said. Only then did Keh stop Yasmine, ¡°Aunt, Cassie is fine. I asked the doctor to see her when she woke up. Only then did Yasmine and Jessica breathe a sigh of relief. Cassandra also said coldly, ¡°I¡¯m fine.¡± She was not sure what they meant, so she didn¡¯t get close to them. ¡°I¡¯m sorry. It was because of me, Kayden¡­¡± Cassandra took the initiative to apologize. 52% Chapter 390 She was ready to be scolded, just like before. However, they didn¡¯t scold her. Yasmine said, ¡°What are you talking about? That kid saved you because of you. Besides, he is a soldier and your cousin. He should- do it. There is nothing to be sorry for.¡± Yasmine said it in a rxed tone, but the worry in her eyes couldn¡¯t deceive anyone. It was just that she could not say too much, which would make Cassandra sad as well. Kayden should save her no matter what. Who was to me as their parents? Looking at Kayden lying there, Yasmine even felt lucky that it was not Cassandra. That girl shouldn¡¯t have suffered so much. They were her family, whether Cassandra thought of them as family or not. Kayden saved Cassandra. When he woke up, he could be praised. Cassandra was not scolded. She had thought that Kayden¡¯s mother and aunt should scold her because Kayden was injured because of her. But instead of scolding her, they cared about her. ¡°Don¡¯t think too much, and don¡¯t think that we will me you, Yasmine said. earnestly, ¡°Jessica and I were nervous about what happened to your grandfather before. We like that the kids are around, but your grandfather is old and he couldn¡¯t stand too noisy. So we overreacted a little bit. ¡°But this time, it¡¯s Kayden who can protect you. I believe he will be happy when he wakes up. Then don¡¯t think too much about it. I¡­¡± ¡°Thank you,¡± Cassandra thanked Yasmine sincerely, ¡°I didn¡¯t think too much about that. When I thought that my biological parents had abandoned me after I was born, I said so rudely and hurt my grandfather. Although I knew you two were very nice, at that time, I didn¡¯t want any family affection. I am sorry for that. ¡°Kayden was injured because he saved me. Don¡¯t worry, I will cure him and leave him no sequ.¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t want to think too much about anything now. All she wanted was to cure Kayden and take it as a kindness for saving her life. ¡°Kid, there are so many doctors here. Don¡¯t worry about it. Have a good rest. Yasmine didn¡¯t agree directly. Chupers 200 If she remembers correctly, the doctor said that Cassandra had a mild concussion and was not suitable for fatigue. She also hoped that her son would get better and wake up soon. But Cassandra mustn¡¯t be overworked. So she refused directly. With so many doctors, they would cure Kayden. Cassandra shook her head and whispered, ¡°I¡¯m fine. Hugo wille to help me. I just want to see. The rest of the work will be done by Hugo.¡± Cassandra was a little ufortable for a moment. She couldn¡¯t get used to the fact that they were so nice to her.

He must have lost a lot of blood. She put her hand on Kayden¡¯s wrist and took his pulse. After two minutes, she let go of her hand with a slight sigh of relief. Fortunately, there was nothing serious. He would be fine when he woke up. ¡°He¡¯s fine. He should be able to wake up in five hours.¡± Cassandra said to Yasmine, Tll ask Hugo to tak care of Kayden!¡± Yasmine was so happy that she almost cried. That¡¯s great Kayden was fine.

He woke up to see his mother, Jessica, and Hugo. Fortunately, he was a soldier and was in good physical condition. After waking up, he didn¡¯t feel ufortable except for his wound. ¡°Mom, when did youe here?¡± Kayden twitched his mouth andughed. ¡°You bastard, you just woke up and you¡¯reughing.¡± Yasmine looked at Kayden reproachfully. ¡°Mom, my wound hurts,¡± Kayden said like a spoiled child. Kayden¡¯s tone made Cassandra, who had just walked to the ward door, somewhat speechless. ¡°I¡¯ll call a doctor for you.¡± Yasmine was a little nervous, but when she turned. around, she saw Cassandra. When Kayden saw Cassandra, he was also surprised. ¡°Cassie, are you okay?¡± ¡°I¡¯m fine.¡± Cassandra walked up to him and took his pulse. ¡°It won¡¯t be a big deal when you wake up. I asked Hugo to prescribe a pair of traditional medicine for invigorating blood and healing wounds, which will be brought here soon,¡± Cassandra said in a serious tone, ¡°If you drink traditional. medicine, don¡¯t take Western medicine. Hugo will reapply medicine to you later, which can make you heal faster.¡± Her medicines were quick¨Cacting and had no side effects. Kayden was awake. Cassandra thought that she should ask him for his opinion on medication. Kayden¡¯s eyes lit up, ¡°Really? That¡¯s great.¡± He asked curiously, ¡°Can I get better in a week?¡± Cassandra frowned and said coldly, ¡°Yes. But you can¡¯t participate in the military drill. You should give up this exercise this time.¡± Kayden looked at Keh pleadingly, as if he were asking for help. It was too painful for him not to be allowed to participate in this military drill that was so hard toe by. Chapter 391 This exercise, which Keh and John had prepared for so long, must be very exciting as a result that he couldn¡¯t go anywhere now. It¡¯s really painful for him. Keh said with a cold face, ¡°Recover first. The exercise will start in two days. You don¡¯t have to participate this time. I¡¯ll exin the situation to the superior.¡± Keh¡¯s wordspletely extinguished Kayden¡¯s hope. ¡°You¡¯re so badly injured, and you still want to go to the exercise. Do you want to die?¡± Yasmine roared. Kayden couldn¡¯t help but swallow his saliva. He exined awkwardly, ¡°Mom, It¡¯s like I didn¡¯t go.¡± ¡°Humph!¡± Yasmine was angry. Seeing that his mother and Cassandra didn¡¯t seem to interact with each other, Kayden couldn¡¯t help but say, ¡°Mom, are you ming Cassie? My injury has nothing to do with her.¡± He didn¡¯t know what had happened. He thought Cassandra looked pale because his mother said something about her. It took him a lot of effort to make Cassandra less hostile to him. If his mother said something bad, Cassandra might ignore him again after he healed from his injury. Yasmine¡¯s expression changed instantly, and she scolded harshly, ¡°In your heart, is this the image of your mother? Do you think I¡¯d just pick on someone?¡± Cassandra hurriedly exined, ¡°It has nothing to do with Ms. Yasmine. I¡¯m thinking about my own business.

ÉêÉêÉê܇܇ Before long, Maximilian came to the hospital with Devin and Denzel. They were stunned when they saw Cassandra. After all, they hadn¡¯t seen each other for a long time. Even when Darren came back, they hadn¡¯t seen each other. They just didn¡¯t expect 12:30 Sat, 23 Mar ti Chapter 391 that they would meet again because of Kayden. Denzel noticed that Cassandra was no longer hostile to them. He was a little. surprised, but he could imagine that. It was said that Keh was chased by someone yesterday. Kayden happened to go to his house to discuss something, so he got shot to save Cassandra. Kayden had done a good job. Although he was injured, Cassandra still cared about him. Although their kinship with Cassandra was shallow, it would be nice if she could treat them as her friend¡¯s elders. ¡°Grandpa, dad, uncle,¡± Kayden says hi to them. Although the wound was a little painful, it didn¡¯t hurt much for him. It hurts when Cassandra detoxifies him. ¡°Are you feeling better? What did the doctor say?¡± Denzel asked. ¡°It¡¯s all right. Cassie is responsible for it. I will be fine soon,¡± Kayden answered. At the thought of Cassandra treating him again, Kayden was inexplicably excited. Seeing that almost all the members of the Yates family had arrived, Cassandra got up and stood opposite them. She apologized to them. ¡°Sorry, Kayden was in trouble because of me.¡± Cassandra apologized to them. Maximilian hurriedly stepped forward. Because of Cassandra¡¯s traditional medicine, he was now much stronger than his peers. He helped Cassandra up and said, ¡°Cassie, don¡¯t do this. This is what Kayden should do. Don¡¯t me yourself.¡± Cassandra shook her head and said, ¡°There is nothing that should or should not be done. He did this because of me.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t think too much. He wouldn¡¯t have done it if he wasn¡¯t willing to.¡± Maximilian grabbed Cassandra¡¯s hand with some heartache, ¡°Cassandra, I¡¯m sorry I don¡¯t know why I cultivated such a son to make you suffer for so many years.¡± Cassandra¡¯s eyes suddenly widened. Was Maximilian apologizing to her? Apologize for what? Such a son? Is that Darren? ??? 12:30 Sat, 23 Mar ti Chapter 391 She thought so. All the grievances she suffered in her life were caused by Darren. Cassandra was silent, and she could not me anyone or Maximilian. ¡°I don¡¯t care anymore.¡± Cassandra nodded slightly, ¡°You can watch Kayden first. I¡¯ll ask Hugo to give him acupuncture treatmentter.¡± ¡°Okay, you can go back to rest first,¡± Yasmine said gently. After Cassandra left, Maximilianplimented Kayden, ¡°You did a good job this time. Cassie is a girl. She can¡¯t stand it and it even hurts her body. You did well this time.¡± Kayden raised his head and said, ¡°Of course.¡± But he didn¡¯t think about anything at that time. He just thought Cassandra shouldn¡¯t get hurt. Otherwise, he might be punished by his grandfather. How good it was now! Kayden was fine. Cassandra and Keh returned to the ward. When Keh made her bed, Cassandra suddenly stood in the middle of the ward and called softly, ¡°Keh, I want to eat shrimp.¡± Keh was so shocked. SEND GIFT O 0 Chapter 392 Keh was frightened by Cassandra¡¯s words. He hadn¡¯t heard this, and he had thought he would never hear it again. His voice trembled, ¡°What¨Cwhat did you say?¡± He walked quickly in front of Cassandra and looked into her eyes. ¡°Cassie, what did you just say?¡± ¡°Keh, I want to eat shrimp,¡± Cassandra said again. Keh burst into tears with joy. ¡®Keh, I want to eat shrimp.¡¯ It was her favorite thing to say to him before. At that time, when she first arrived at Roond Vige, Blossom was seriously ill. Cassandra loved shrimp the most. She tried everything to get him to take her in. Until finally, she said she wanted to eat shrimp and bring delicious food to Jeremiah and Blossom, so Cassandra said most of the time that month, ¡®Keh, I want to eat shrimp.¡¯ Actually, she didn¡¯t want to eat shrimp. She wanted to buy food for the sickly Blossom. At that time, he had the money to give her everything she wanted, so if she said ¡®Keh, I want to eat shrimp¡¯ for that month, he would take her out to buy it. It seemed that she bought a lot of things, but finally, he found out that they were all things for Blossom or Jeremiah¡¯s health. He had never expected to hear these words again since he knew that Cassandra had lost her memory. ¡°Cassie, have you recovered your memory?¡± Keh couldn¡¯t believe that her memory was restored. But he didn¡¯t do anything. When did she recover her memory? ¡°Well, in the chaosst night, Kayden pushed me and I hit my head. Before I passed out, I felt a lot of memoriesing back,¡± Cassandra said. When she woke up, she was looking at Kayden and forgot to say that she got her memory back. The person in front of her was simr to the one in her memory. He was still tall and straight, giving her a sense of security. ¡°It reminds me of everything before,¡± Cassandra whispered. ¡°Can you remember how you lost your memory?¡± Keh asked nervously. Cassandra shook her head seriously, ¡°I don¡¯t know.¡± ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter. If you can¡¯t remember it, just forget about it.¡± Keh was so happy that Cassandra had remembered him. What could be happier for him than this? ¡°But I seem to have met a young man. Maybe he hypnotized me,¡± Cassandra said. Otherwise, why did she forget only Keh? She hadn¡¯t forgotten anyone, not even what had happened with Blossom and Jeremiah that month, except for him. She didn¡¯t believe that there was any ident that could make her forget only one person, so she should have been hypnotized. Keh¡¯s eyes shed. ¡°You mean you met a strange young man after I left?¡± Cassandra nodded. ¡°Yes, he talked to me a lot, but I don¡¯t remember.¡± Keh had an idea in his mind, but he didn¡¯t say it out loud. He just looked at Cassandra with concern and said, ¡°It¡¯s okay. Let me investigate this matter.¡± Cassandra put her head on his chest as if she had be a little more clingy since she recovered her memory. ¡°Okay,¡± Cassandra said, ¡°But don¡¯t worry. You can investigate this matter after the exercise.¡± ¡°Well, don¡¯t worry. I can arrange it freely.¡± Keh held her in his arms and said, ¡°Have a good rest first. Don¡¯t think too much.¡± Although he was happy, he couldn¡¯t be carried away by happiness. Cassandra needed to rest now, and everything would be discussedter. Two dayster, Keh had to leave because the drill was officially about to begin. All things could only be left to Hugo.N?velDrama.Org copyrighted ? content. ¡°Hugo, please take care of Cassie. If you need anything, just call William and Susan. Cassie likes the dishes cooked by Susan. You have to take care of Cassie and Kayden. You might want to get busy.¡± Keh ordered in a deep voice. Hugo nodded repeatedly, ¡°Okay, I know. Don¡¯t worry. I will take good care of Cassandra.¡± He has taken good care of Cassandra for so many years, and he knows what to do. ¡°Well, I¡¯ll leave it to you then,¡± Keh said. Cassandra looked at Keh helplessly. He had been murmuring here since early morning and getting everything ready for her. Cassandra felt more like she was on a vacation than dealing with an illness. ¡°Keh, I¡¯ll be back in two days. There is no need for these things.¡± Cassandra couldn¡¯t help but remind Keh. ¡°No, stay here for a few more days and take good care of yourself. How about I leave Jeremiah here to take care of you?¡± Keh was still worried. Cassandra said, ¡°No need. You exercise carefully, and Hugo will take care of me.¡± ¡°Keh, just do your business. Let me and Jessica take care of Cassie,¡± Yasmine suddenly appeared and said. ¡°Thank you, Mrs. Yasmine and Mrs. Jessica.¡± Keh thanked her. Then he reluctantly left the ward and looked back, which made Cassandra smile. ¡°Cassie, tell me and Jessica what you need. We¡¯ll be outside here,¡± Yasmine said enthusiastically. It¡¯s not easy to take care of Cassandra aboveboard. However, she still couldn¡¯t find a proper name. Just let Cassandra call them by their first names. ¡°Okay, thank you.¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t know what to call Yasmine. Suddenly, Kayden was helped into the room. Cassandra was a little surprised, ¡°Why are you out of bed?¡± ¡°Hugo told me to walk around more, so I walked here. The wound is a little painful. I need to sit down for a while,¡± Kayden said. Cassandra was stunned for a moment and then nodded. ¡°Yes, you need to walk around more.¡± She felt uneasy about being in the hospital. She would much rather be at home, where it was safer and morefortable. Kayden¡¯s injuries concerned her. ¡°Don¡¯t push yourself too hard. Rest when you need to.¡± Kayden smiled. ¡°I will.¡± Cassandra sighed. ¡°I hope everything gets back to normal soon.¡± Chapter 393 Chapter 393 Cassandra¡¯s refusal was no surprise to Kayden. Cassandra was originally a loner, so she would not live with them. Besides, their rtionship was unclear. ¡°All right. Keh is not here these days. If you need anything, juste to me.¡± Kayden hurriedly said, ¡°The medicine Hugo gave me is very good. I feel much better now and may be discharged from the hospital in a few days.¡± Cassandra just nodded and didn¡¯t. say much. ¡°My mom brought some food. Let¡¯s eat together. She took a lot.¡± Kayden found other topics to chat with Cassandra. ¡°Don¡¯t bother. Hugo is going to fetch me food. You can eat first.¡± Cassandra shook her head and said, ¡°But you have to remember that you can¡¯t eat any seafood now. After the wound heals and no more medicine is used, you can take the seafood.¡± If he ate seafood, the efficacy of medicine would be reduced and he would recover slowly. ¡°Yeah, I know. Hugo said that it would affect my recovery after eating these foods. It haven¡¯t been eating those.¡± He still listened to the doctor¡¯s words. He had already missed this military drill. If he didn¡¯t get better soon, he might not be able to attend themendation meeting before the year. Cassandra nodded and said, ¡°That¡¯s good.¡± Kayden walked to the door and suddenly thought of something. He turned back to Cassandra and said, ¡°Cassie, don¡¯t be pressured. Don¡¯t think that we have a purpose for you. This time you can do whatever you want. No matter what, we won¡¯t force you against your will as before. ¡°If you are unpleasant, just say it. We won¡¯t bother you. You should understand that the elders of our family have watched Keh grow up and treated him well, so they will naturally treat you well. ¡°Forget about the unpleasant things before, and let¡¯s get to know each other again.¡± Kayden was able to see that Cassandra had been a bit ufortable these days. But this time, their family really wanted to be nice to her. They used the wrong method before and thought that only returning to the Yates Group would be best for her. Now thinking about it, even if Cassandra didn¡¯t have these identities, she Chapter 393 could still live a good life. Since they couldn¡¯t really soothe her hurt heart, they would stay with her. No one can erase the harm caused by her parents. And Kayden couldn¡¯t forgive the so¨Ccalled uncle anyway. Kayden couldn¡¯t know what she had been through. Imposing their thoughts on Cassandra would only make her more rebellious. During this time, Kayden hadpletely understood. Cassandra nodded. ¡°Well, thank you.¡± She was really ufortable recently. The warmth and consideration of the Yates family made her a little overwhelmed. But now that Kayden had opened up, she didn¡¯t have to worry too much. Seeing that Cassandra didn¡¯t reject him, Kayden smiled and said, ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll go back first. Have a good rest.¡± Cassandra took medicine for herself these two days, so she recovered faster and was discharged directly after two days. Kayden also wanted to be discharged. Although his wounds were much better, he still needed a good rest. The doctor still had to monitor his physical condition at any time and couldn¡¯t discharge him at will. But Yasmine and Denzel couldn¡¯t persuade Kayden. So Yasmine had no choice but to ask Cassandra for help. Yasmine was just packing up in the ward. Yasmine said with some embarrassment, ¡°Cassie, can you help me persuade Kayden? He saw that you were discharged from the hospital and now he insisted on leaving¡± Cassandra said, ¡°OK.¡± Their wards were very close, but the VIP wards had a good soundproof effect. Therefore, she didn¡¯t hear what they said either, so she did not stop them. immediately. In Kayden¡¯s ward, the appearance of Cassandra made them a little embarrassed. 12:30 Sat, 23 Mar ti G Chapter 393 Kayden, who was about to pack his clothes, stopped moving. ¡°What are you doing?¡± Cassandra asked coldly. Kayden didn¡¯t dare to look Cassandra in the eye and said, ¡°I just feel that there is nothing wrong with me. I want to leave the hospital.¡± Kayden felt aggrieved. After all, if Cassandra was discharged from the hospital, he would have to stay in the hospital alone. It would be boring. If Cassie were in the hospital, he could at least talk to her to pass the time. ¡°Stay here for another three days, and then go home on Christmas,¡± Cassandra said coldly. Kayden didn¡¯t know how to argue with Cassandra. He felt that his mother had found someone he simply didn¡¯t dare to contradict. ¡°So I¡¯ll be spending Christmas in the hospital?¡± Kayden asked. ¡°It¡¯s not an important festival. Don¡¯t care so much about it. Get well first.¡± Cassandra looked a little serious, ¡°Keh and I have found the people who are chasing us. After you recover, you can deal with them.¡± Kayden was excited when he heard that. He thought Keh had no time to care about anything after going to the military. drill. Unexpectedly, Keh found the murderers when he was leaving. Kayden had been aggrieved for too long. He was going to take it out on the murderers. ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll stay in the hospital for another three days. When I get out of the hospital, I will deal with them.¡± Kayden said fiercely. ¡°Well, then take care of yourself. I¡¯ll go back first,¡± Cassandra said. ¡°OK,¡± Kayden said. Cassandra turned around and nodded to Yasmine, then left directly. Yasmine was speechless, and she thought her son was so stupid. When Cassandra returned to her ward, she suddenly found that there was an uninvited guest in the ward. He worked for Keh, and his name was Ethan. 52% Chapter 393 Ethan walked slowly to Cassandra and said softly, ¡°Cassandra, congrattions on being discharged from the hospital.¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t pay much attention, directly bypassing Ethan, and continued to pack her bags. ¡°Are you sent by Keh?¡± Cassandra said. Ethan thought there was something different about Keh¡¯s nameing out of Cassandra¡¯s mouth. ¡°No, I¡¯m here for Cassandra,¡± answered Ethan. Cassandra paused and looked up at Ethan. ¡°Well, what¡¯s the matter?¡± Ethan said bluntly, ¡°I heard that you have recovered your memory, so I came to see you.¡± Cassandra¡¯s eyes sank slightly, and her face gradually becameplicated.

Lamont was too loyal and he would tell Keh anything. If Keh knew this thing, he would drive them away. Cassandra didn¡¯t expect that Yannick knew this thing too. Then what was in his heart when he faced her? ¡°Cassandra, I¡¯m sorry. I had no choice but to do that.¡± Ethan¡¯s tone was full of apology, but there was no real regret. Cassandra said with a darkened face, ¡°What else did you do to me?¡± ¡°No.¡± Ethan shook his head honestly. ¡°You did this without permission, just do what Keh did to punish you, three days of confinement. Then this matter is over, Cassandra said, ¡°I¡¯ll make it clear to Keh. Don¡¯t worry about that.¡± Ethan hurriedly exined, ¡°Cassandra, I think you have misunderstood. I didn¡¯t want you to plead with him for me. After I knew that your memory was restored, I 51% Chapter 394 thought you had the right to know all this. I¡¯ll take the initiative to admit my mistake to Keh. As for how he punishes me, I will ept it.¡± Now, all of Keh¡¯s revenge had been taken and his life was on the right track. Cassandra was with him now, and she recovered her memory. It was a good thing. Therefore, Ethan thought he should be punished ording to his previous mistakes. ¡°However, I will go for the three days of confinement.¡± Ethan nodded gently and said again, ¡°I still want to say sorry to Cassandra. You haven¡¯t had a memory for so many years because of me.¡± Ethan left directly and went to the solitary cell mentioned by Cassandra. Looking at Ethan¡¯s back, Cassandra was a little confused. She was so angry that she even wanted to kick Ethan. However, she seemed to understand Keh¡¯s situation at that time. If it were her, she would be more ruthless than Ethan and might directly kill the girl who affected his master¡¯s mood. They just made her forget about that month, all the memories of Keh. In her previous life, she didn¡¯t understand why Keh treated the Yates family like that because of her. After meeting Keh in this life, she knew that they had known each other for a long time. Only after she recovered her memory did she know that it was fate between them. She was angry because she missed Keh in her previous life.. Keh was the one to deal with this matter. It depended on his decision. He could beat them up or send them out for training. ***** It had been four days since Keh left. Today was Christmas. Cassandra was a little bored at Pinehart Mansion alone. Before Keh came back, it seemed that she would be bored like this many days. Suddenly, Cassandra¡¯s phone rang. Someone called her and she found that it was Sofia. She was a little disappointed and picked up the call. Then she heard Sofia shouting, ¡°Cassandra, Cassandra!¡± ||| Chapter 391 ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± Cassandra asked. ¡°Let¡¯s celebrate Christmas together. There will be a firework disy this year, which is very wonderful.¡± As Sofia spoke, she turned the camera around. Several ssmates were also there, including Cassidy and Samuel. This made Cassandra a little curious. Why would the students from the Traditional Medicine Department stay with those from the Physics Department? The key point was that two of them seemed to be her students. ¡°Send me a location, and I¡¯lle to you.¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t refuse. Anyway, Keh was not here, so she should spend the day with Sofia. Cassandra soon drove off to find Sofia and the others. The fireworks were beautiful, but the radio said, ¡°The Christmas ising soon. Hold on to the people around you and hug them. In the future, you will be even happier.¡± Cassandra felt a little disappointed. After all, the person she wanted to hug was not there. 18 COMMENT SEND GIFT Chapter 395 Chapter 395 It was already one o¡¯clock in the morning when Cassandra returned to Pinehart Mansion. When she went back, the vi was brightly lit. Even William and Susan hadn¡¯t slept yet. When William saw hering back, he hurriedly came up and said, ¡°Cassandra, you¡¯re finally back. We have been waiting for you for a long time.¡± Cassandra was a little confused. She thought it was William who worried about her safety, so she whispered, ¡°William, I went out with some students this evening to celebrate Christmas. Sorry for keeping you waiting. Go to sleep now. You will have half¨Cday off tomorrow morning and continue working in the afternoon.¡± Anyway, Keh had said that she could arrange William and Susan¡¯s work as she wished and they would have a vacation if she could. They had been waiting for her for so long today, so she should give them a vacation. ¡°Okay, thank you, Cassandra.¡± Although William had a vacation, William didn¡¯t forget the main thing. He said, ¡°When Keh left, he left you a Christmas gift, which was delivered at 11 pm. But you were not home, so I signed up for it. Hope. you don¡¯t mind.¡± He¡¯s been waiting here for so long to tell Cassandra about it. Cassandra suddenly opened her eyes wide and looked at William in surprise. ¡°William, where is the gift?¡± She was never short of gifts or someone to send them, but this was the first time she had expected a present so much. ¡°Cassandra, wait a moment.¡± After saying that, William turned around and walked towards the dining room. Because it was toorge, Susan also went over to help. They carried out a huge gift box. Cassandra was surprised and wondered what was. in the box. Cassandra couldn¡¯t help but approach curiously. Seeing Cassandra¡¯s reaction, William knew that she liked it. So William smiled happily and said, ¡°Cassandra, we won¡¯t bother you. You can open the gift first.¡± It¡¯s all a surprise for Cassandra. William wanted to leave Cassandra some private ||| Çú:51%Ó‹ Chapter 395 space and take her time to open the gift. ¡°Okay,¡± Cassandra replied. She looked up, ¡°William, Susan, thank you.¡± William and Susan just smiled happily and left without saying anything. Cassandra was alone in the living room. With curiosity, she opened the box and found that there were large and small boxes inside. The gifts were opened one by one, and there were nine in total. If Cassandra¡¯s memory served her right, Keh had prepared gifts every year since he met her. There were gifts from several years ago. It may be obvious that the boxes had been put there for a long time. The most special gift was thest one, which seemed to be thetest. The style was the most popr this year, but it was a ne with a drop of red liquid on the pendant. Cassandra was a little curious because the drop of red liquid didn¡¯t match the whole ne at all. She wanted to know what the red liquid was, so she rummaged through the box. and found a letter. [Cassie: [In the Christmas, I hope you will be happier. [I¡¯m sorry that we can¡¯t spend the first Christmas together, and even in the future, there may not be such an opportunity. My special status is destined to make you feel wronged. I¡¯ll try my best to make it up to you. [It has been 9 years since I first met you.

[A lot of words, back to the gift, thest gift, you may wonder why such a delicate ne, will put a drop of red liquid. That is my blood. [This ne is an ancient one that was once handed down by the British royal family. It is said to be a magical treasure. My friend told me about the legend of this ne. He also told me that when I gave it to my loved one, cing a drop of blood in the middle would bring us closer and more connected. [Although I know it¡¯s a legend, I just want to try it. So, my Cassie, I hope that when Ie back, I can see you wearing it. Good things are to be disyed. [Finally, I wish my Cassie happy and healthy forever.] Cassandra was shocked that this red liquid was Keh¡¯s blood. Was he stupid enough to believe such a legend? But for some reason, she was just happy in her heart. She put the other gifts into her room one by one, and only this ne was carried around. The ne was too precious. In her eyes, the drop of blood made her love Keh even more deeply. She was so excited when lying on the bed, but she soon realized that something was wrong. If she remembered correctly, it seemed that Keh didn¡¯t remember to prepare a gift at all because he was going on a military drill. Then she got up again and did all kinds of preparation work to see what kind of gift boys liked. However, after looking online for a long time, there was no progress. Instead, the time had almost passed. THE It was almost dawn when Cassandra fell asleep. When she woke up, it was already noon. She went downstairs and saw Kayden sitting there. ¡°Cassie, happy Christmas!¡± Kayden said excitedly. ¡°Thank you.¡± Cassandra walked up to him and said, ¡°Why are you discharged so early?¡± Chapter 395 Kayden thought, ¡®If you hadn¡¯t stopped me, I would have been discharged from. the hospital long ago.¡± ¡°I wanted to say ¡®Happy Christmas¡® to you, so I came here early.¡± Kayden was blunt and straightforward. ¡°Happy Christmas.¡± Cassandra nodded slightly. ¡°Cassie, tell me quickly. Who tried to kill Keh on Christmas Day?¡± That¡¯s what Kayden came here for. Other things were not that important. If he didn¡¯t let out the anger in his heart, he might be suffocated. ¡°It¡¯s Zack,¡± Cassandra said a name in a deep voice. Kayden was a little confused and thought, ¡®Who is Zack?¡± After thinking about it, this name seemed to sound familiar and he had heard of this name somewhere before. ¡°Ah, isn¡¯t he Yulissa¡¯s father? The one who robbed Keh of the oil business?¡± Only then did Kayden realize who Zack was. It seems that after Keh took over the oil business, Zack became angry. ¡°Yeah,¡± Cassandra said.

However, after so many days, he didn¡¯t show up. Didn¡¯t they find out that it was him? But it made sense. This time, the men he hired were all foreign mercenaries, and their identities were kept secret. How could he find out? Moreover, the people who have been watching him these days reported that they hadn¡¯t seen him, not even in the hospital where Cassandra was hospitalized. It seemed that he was no longer in the country. ¡°Then I can rest easy now! Thinking of that, he felt happy. ¡®Keh, you¡¯re the one who got in my way and stopped me from doing oil business. That was a cooperation worth hundreds of billions of dors, but you just robbed it. If you don¡¯t make the pay, it would be maltreatment to me!¡± He felt a sudden thrill of revenge, turning the prayer beads in his hand and enjoying it with his eyes closed. With a loud bang, Zack opened his eyes in surprise. The maid rushed out of the room. Zack ordered coldly, ¡°Go and see what¡¯s going on.¡± Before she ran out, a group of people walked in directly! ¡°Who are you? Don¡¯t break into Fallvale Mansion without permission.

Keh was good at fighting and those underlings couldn¡¯t defeat him. But I was different. I was a little weaker than Keh, so I got shot. Now I¡¯m almost fine, but I feel ufortable if I don¡¯t fire back, right?¡± Zack¡¯s face stiffened, and he said angrily, ¡°Mr. Yates, you should take revenge indeed, but I just don¡¯t know what you are here for. Did you doubt that I did it at Christmas?¡± Kayden said, ¡°Didn¡¯t you?¡± ¡°Of course not. How could I be the enemy of Mr. Zelinski and you? Are you kidding me?¡± Zack felt a little excited as if he had heard something shocking. ¡°Mr. James, if you are an upright man, don¡¯t pretend to be confused.

So Keh did find out the truth but saved it for them to fire back. Even Kayden craned his neck to have a look. ¡°Isn¡¯t this the new product developed by Keh?¡± When they did the experiment, such a small round thing was just like an ancient. smoke bomb.

She had to admit that she was curious about the woman who had died for more than ten years. Zack kept her well.

Just now, he was thinking about how to convict Zack and Chapter 397 whether to use all the connections between the Zelinski Group and Yates Group to get him punished. Unexpectedly, after Cassandra¡¯s words, all the problems were solved. He habitually stripped Keh of his identity, as he had done for so many years. Zack wanted to kill Keh, the CEO of Zelinski Group.

Since these people begged her, she would satisfy them. It was her duty¨Cbound mission to end those people! Cassandra changed into Dr. Quirke¡¯s outfit and flew to Hydias.

Are you worried that something romantic might happen between two men?¡± Julius¡¯s question made sense. Julius wanted to find an opportunity to persuade Faye, and it would be best if he could tamper with the medicine. How many innocent people¡¯s blood did he have on his hands? Shouldn¡¯t such a bad person die? ¡°I still think it is not safe for two men to be in the same room,¡± Cassandra said and rolled her eyes.

Jeremiah: [Okay. I¡¯ll keep an eye on her immediately.] Cassandra: [Please help me investigate a person named Julius. He seems strange.] Jeremiah: [Okay. I¡¯ll check it right now and inform you.] Keh was watching them chat beside Jeremiah. He couldn¡¯t help but say to Jeremiah, ¡°Ask Cassie how she is doing.¡± Jeremiah smiled. He also wanted to know her situation. However, it seemed that ine was okay since she could chat with him. Cassandra: [Oh, by the way, don¡¯t call me. They have taken away my phone away. Even though I had already set it up, we should be careful.] Jeremiah: [Take care of yourself. Retreat immediately if something goes wrong.] Cassandra: [Okay. Get ready, you guys. I may not stay long. I¡¯ll start treating him tomorrow.] She informed them that she wouldn¡¯t stay for long. Simon was a dangerous person, and Leva appeared to be even more terrifying than him. And they got a lot of men here. SEND GIFT III Chapter 404 Chapter 404 Julius didn¡¯t show up that night. It seemed like he had been assigned to another task. The next morning, Simon¡¯s men arrived early to fetch Cassandra. She took her medical tools and went to Simon¡¯s room. The room¡¯s furnishings were full of primitive tribal vor, such as an ox head and tiger skin. When Cassandra entered, Simon was praying, naturally seeking wealth. ¡°Good morning, Dr. Quirke. Let¡¯s get started.¡± Simon sat on the sofa and went straight to the point. R¨ºAdt??St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only ¡°Okay.¡± Cassandra sat down across from him without hesitation. She opened her medical kit. To be honest, she rarely used these items. Cassandra checked Simon and found that his symptoms were simr to what she had expected. She thought that Simon deserved it. ¡°It¡¯s not a big problem. Just leave it to me, and you will be cured within two weeks,¡± Cassandra said confidently. Simon¡¯s eyes. ¡°Of course.¡± lit up and he asked with disbelief, ¡°Are you telling the truth?¡± ¡°Boss, don¡¯t be deceived. He is bragging. How can it be cured in just two weeks?¡± One of Simon¡¯s subordinates didn¡¯t believe it at all. Simon had seen so many doctors, and they all said there was no cure for him. How could it possible to be cured in just two weeks? He said the doctor was boasting. Simon was also suspicious of Cassandra¡¯s im that his illness could be cured in just two weeks. He didn¡¯t dare to hope for a cure within a year, which would be very lucky for him. ¡°If you don¡¯t believe me, let me go. I have many patients waiting for me,¡± Cassandra said coldly. ¡± III Chapter 401 Hearing this, Simon panicked and shouted to his subordinate, ¡°Get the fuck out of here!¡± ¡°Boss¡­¡± Simon¡¯s subordinate knew the doctor had no good intentions. How could there be such a panacea that could cure a terminally ill patient in a short time? Anyway, he did not believe it. But his master had already gone crazy to believe. such a ridiculous statement. ¡°You don¡¯t need to drive him away,¡± Cassandra interrupted. ¡°Doubt is not a bad thing. Since he is concerned about you, let me give you the medicine right away. If it proves effective, your man will feel relieved.¡± ¡°But¡­¡± Simon hesitated. ¡°How dare you use those counterfeit medicines on my boss? Are you obsessed. about money?¡± The man insisted and then turned to Simon, saying, ¡°Boss, this person should be arrested. There must be something wrong with him!¡± Cassandra felt that the man was troublesome, so she approached him and pricked his acupuncture point with a silver needle, rendering him unable to speak. ¡°Your man is so noisy, isn¡¯t he? Now we can speak more quietly.¡± Simon was shocked by her technique, wondering what had been done to render his man unable to speak immediately. ¡°Yes, you are right, Dr. Quirke.¡± None of the doctors he had seen were able to perform such an amazing technique. Perhaps his illness could improve. ¡°Dr. Quirke, please give me the medicine,¡± Simon said, dispelling his doubts. Even the man looked at her incredulously with wide eyes. ¡®I can¡¯t talk. What happened? I even can¡¯t open my mouth. What the hell did he do to me? Boss, why are you still taking the medicine?¡® Simon¡¯s subordinate was anxious, but he could not utter a word. Cassandra said in a serious tone, ¡°I¡¯ll give you acupuncture first. After that, I will apply the medicine to you. The first application will be very painful for half an hour, but it will gradually improve afterwards. Applying the medicine will take an hour.¡± Chapter 404 ¡°Are there any side effects after applying the medicine?¡± Simon asked skeptically. ¡°It¡¯s okay. You will feel much better after applying the medicine. At least, you will be able to breathe smoothly and feel less ufortable.¡± ¡°Thank you, Dr. Quirke.¡± In the hotel, Keh and Eddie were making ns. Keh and Jeremiah spected that Cassandra would solve this matter within half a month, so they had to prepare in advance. Suddenly, their superior made a video call. ¡°Keh, Eddie, you must arrest Faye Quirke!¡± Keh and Eddie looked at each other with puzzled expressions. ¡°Why?¡± asked Keh. The leader shouted furiously in the video, ¡°Faye Quirke went to treat Simon. If Simon is really cured, the consequences will be unimaginable.¡± The mere thought of a healthy Simon effortlessly navigating through smuggling lines drove the leader to madness. He lost his temper upon learning that Faye Quirke would be treating Simon. Upon hearing this, Keh was at a loss for words. ¡°Boss, you should trust Dr. Quirke. He wouldn¡¯t do such a thing. You know this from his past.¡± Keh told Eddie about the truth because he knew that Eddie would keep it a secret. However, Keh should not disclose that Cassandra had be an undercover agent. ¡°Keh, you may not really know who Dr. Quirke is. Do you have to wait until Simon is cured before you listen to me?¡± The leader was even angrier at Keh¡¯s exnation. ¡°Trust me, boss. We can get things done within two weeks. I¡¯ll exin everything to you then. Dr. Quirke is not a bad person.¡± Keh did not say it explicitly, but his leader might have guessed. 21 Mon, 25 Chapter 404 *Alright, I¡¯ll give you half a month. If Simon is cured, you must ensure that he and Dr. Quirke are killed at all costs!¡± Hearing this order, Keh¡¯s face stiffened. The video call was disconnected. Eddie looked at Keh and asked, ¡°Why didn¡¯t you teil the boss about Dr. Quirke¡¯s true identity?¡± ¡°Who knows if our phone or his phone is being monitored? The more we talk, the more risks we create. Only by saying nothing can we protect Cassie.¡± It was okay to be temporarily misunderstood. The truth would be clear one day. However, Faye¡¯s courageous visit to Simon had aroused widespread concern in themunity. ¡°Did Dr. Quirke, whom everyone respected, actually go to see a drug dealer? Had hepletely forgotten his professional ethics?¡± [Is the news about Dr. Quirke true?] [I don¡¯t know, but someone from the upper ss must have seen Dr. Quirke. Although Dr. Quirke is secretive, he is still a human being. Naturally, someone must have caught sight of him.] [I am acquainted with Dr. Quirke, who sessfully treated my grandfather¡¯s illness at a high cost.] Thest remark referred to a wealthy man who, ording to media reports, had employed Faye for treatment. It seemed that Faye had indeed gone to treat the drug dealer in exchange for money. Then, the news went viral on Twitter. Öæ Chapter 405 Chapter 405 [It¡¯s so ridiculous! How could he be a reputable doctor? He can do anything for money, right? Won¡¯t he feel guilt?] [Doesn¡¯t he feel shame for saving a killer? He has always been a mysterious person. I used to think he was a real individual, but it turns out he¡¯s a pathetic bastard who can suck others¡® asses for money!] [What¡¯s the bullshit? How could he save such a jerk? That kind of person should go to hell!] [Does he know how many people this man has killed? How many police officers have died because of him? How dare he save him? If he recovers, I will curse him. for the rest of my life!] [Me too. I¡¯ll never forgive this kind of person!] [Does he lose his conscience for money to save a drug dealer?] [I just hope that Dr. Quirke intends to kill him but not save him. Otherwise, I really can¡¯t understand!] N?velDrama.Org copyrighted ? content. [How much money did he get from that notorious drug dealer? He deserves a thousand times death. If hecks money, we can crowdfund for you. He makes me sick to sell his soul for money.] [I curse him to be hit by a car when he goes out!] [I hope that he dies in a gutter!] When Keh saw those harshments on Twitter, criticizing and judging Cassandra, he felt extremely annoyed, but he knew he couldn¡¯t exin it now. The more information he leaked, the more dangerous Cassandra would be. Fortunately, theizens didn¡¯t know who Dr. Quirke was, ¡°Damn it!¡± Keh cursed out when he saw an updatedment. [I heard that Dr. Quirke¡¯s shop is Whitecrane Hall. We can¡¯t buy anything from his store. He¡¯s earning dirty money!] [I can¡¯t agree more! Can a person who treats a drug dealer sell good things?] [Guys, let¡¯s go and smash the Whitecrane Hall!] Chapter 405 [Let¡¯s go! Together! Together!] [I can¡¯t forgive myself if I don¡¯t teach him a lesson today!] After scrolling down and reading thosements, Keh immediately called Hugo to inform him to close the door and ask all employees to leave at once. If some people had no ce, they just stayed in Whitecrane Hall and never went out. Hugo hurriedly understood that something wrong had happened and agreed. ¡®People must have known that Ms. Yates went to Hydias, Hugo thought. He immediately ordered all workers to leave as soon as possible. Then he quickly closed the shop and arranged for everyone to sneak off through the underground parking lot. Fortunately, the parking lot underneath was massively huge, providing efficient parking spaces for people who lived on this street. No one could expect what was going to happen if they came across these lunatics. When a group of crazy crowds arrived at Whitecrane Hall, they only found that it was already shut down. Out of rage, they started to scrawl graffiti on the door and leave swear words to ask Dr. Quirke to leave Clusia immediately. The door and the walls were covered with curses and daming words. Whitecrane Hall was forced to close for a short time. Fortunately, Hugo was very calm and open¨Cminded. Heforted all the staff in the group chat and asked them to believe their boss, promising that he wouldn¡¯t do anything to disappoint everyone. Then he let everyone take a month¡¯s paid vacation and go back to work after everything was settled. All the employees were very delighted when they were informed of this since they could take a rest but still earn their sries. Since it was close to Christmas, it would be very hard to find a good job at this time if they lost their jobs. Moreover, they might not get a year¨Cend bonus after toiling for a year. But now they could take a holiday in advance and were ensured with sries and bonuses. 0 Simon underwent nearly two hours of treatment. The first hour and a half was very tough. He felt a sharp pain when Cassandra needled him. tas Later, he also felt his skin prickling all over in the first half an hour after Cassandra applied medicine to his body. It hurt so much that he began to suspect that Cassandra was torturing him on purpose. It wasn¡¯t until thest half hour that he started to feel less pain. His whole body felt lighter and his breathing gradually became more steady. Then he feltpletely rxed and waited for the end of tre ¡°How do you feel now?¡± Cassandra asked with a confident and triumphant look. Simon stood up and stretched his arms. His eyes lit up. Now his body was light and he breathed even. The pain in his body was alleviated. greatly. ¡®It¡¯s so Amazing!¡® Simon thought. ¡°I¡¯m feeling veryfortable now. I feel better than I¡¯ve felt in the past few years,¡± Simon imed out of joy. ¡®Dr. Quirke indeed has something!¡® Simon thought secretly delightedly. ¡°Don¡¯t be too happy. You need to go through the same treatment in the following days, but it won¡¯t hurt like today.¡± Cassandra paused deliberately and calcted the time, adding, ¡°Ten dayster, I¡¯ll give you another operation to remove bullets and iron pieces from your body and take action to control your cancer.¡± ¡°You mean I have cancer?¡± Simon was shocked and blurted out. ¡°Didn¡¯t your doctor tell you?¡± Cassandra said, pretending to be surprised. ¡°No.¡± Simon shook his head suspiciously. He had examined his body two days before Faye came here but found nothing. ¡®How can I be diagnosed with cancer now? What if¡­ Simon thought suspiciously. ¡°If you don¡¯t believe me, just ask your doctor to check you again or go to other hospitals to recheck it,¡± Cassandra suggested. She thought, ¡®You¡¯ll just get the same result after taking my medicine. Ten days is Chapter 405 enough.¡® Suspicious, Simon asked his men to call the previous doctor. When the doctor came, his face revealed a tinge of fear. Obviously, he had been oppressed and threatened for a long time. ¡°Did you find any other symptomsst time when you did the physical exam?¡± Simon questioned the doctor in a cold voice. ¡°No¡­ Nothing¡­ It¡¯s just that I can¡¯t cure you.¡± ¡°Then why did Dr. Quirke say I have cancer?¡± Simon shouted. He hadn¡¯t recovered yet and was tortured to death every day. Now he was told he had fatal gastric cancer, which was uneptable to Simon. The doctor couldn¡¯t believe his ears and retorted subconsciously, ¡°How is that possible? No sign of cancer was found at all!¡± ¡°Then have another checkup. It¡¯s easy,¡± Cassandra interrupted. ¡°It¡¯s better to check it again rather than ming someone for the mistake. You¡¯ll know if it¡¯s true or not!¡± Simon thought Faye had a point, so he asked the doctor to check him again and then headed to the hospital. After Simon left, Cassandra went back to her room, only to find Julius was already waiting for her. Having scrutinized the whole room without discovering any monitors or listening devices, Julius directly questioned Cassandra, ¡°Have you started treating Simon?¡± ¡°Yes. Is there any problem?¡± ¡°Of course, you are a respectable doctor. Why did you save such a person?¡± Julius sounded a little angry since he couldn¡¯t understand why Cassandra would agree to save Simon. ¡°As far as I know, you have also saved Simon three times, even at the cost of- life. It seems you are the last person to me me.¡± Chapter 406 Chapter 406 Julius didn¡¯t know how to respond. He knew lots of people heard that he had risked his life to save Simon three times. Julius replied with an unnatural look, ¡°I have my reason. It¡¯s none of your business. But what¡¯s your reason?¡± Perceiving Julius¡® caution and vignce, Cassandra frowned and answered, ¡°Because of the money, it¡¯s none of your business either.¡± ¡°You! I hope you can think about it. People like Simon don¡¯t deserve to live. healthily. If you give up the treatment, I can give you¡­¡± Hearing some noise outside, Julius deliberately raised his voice and said, ¡°I can give you more.¡± The door was pushed open. It was Simon and his men. Simon walked in and asked Julius angrily, ¡°What can you give Dr. Quirke?¡± Julius nced at Cassandra and turned to Simon. ¡°I¡¯m just here to test whether Dr. Quirke will be tempted by money to give up your treatment. What if he is an unprincipled person who can be bribed easily?¡± ¡®It¡¯s themest excuse I¡¯ve ever heard, Cassandra thought secretly. But Simon seemed to ept it. He smiled and said, ¡°Well, you¡¯re right. You really should do a test. Good job!¡± Then he turned to Cassandra and said, ¡°Dr. Quirke, I¡¯m sorry. My brother is just worried about my safety. You know, it is easy for us to be set up by others. Of course, I trust you, so I ask you for help. However, someone might offer a higher price and let you kill me.¡± Cassandra was speechless. She didn¡¯t expect that Simon would believe Julius so easily and felt a little ridiculous that such a person got into the leading position. hav Cassandra pretended to be angry and answered, ¡°I have my own principle. Since I ept your money, I¡¯ll be responsible for you. If you don¡¯t believe me, I can refund the money and you can find someone else. If you believe me, don¡¯t y such a clumsy trick again.¡± She perceived that Julius had a lot of secrets, but now she was being watched at any 0 11:21 Mon, 25 Mar Chapter 406 time. It was very hard for her to investigate his background. The only thing she could do was to wait for the message from Jeremiah. Simon replied with a smile, ¡°Don¡¯t worry. It¡¯ll never happen again. He went out to deal with business today, so he didn¡¯t see the process of your treatment. Please don¡¯t pay him any mind.¡± After experiencing today¡¯s treatment, Simon was deeply impressed by Cassandra¡¯s excellent skills and extremely admired her. ¡°Okay. If it happens again, I won¡¯t be so kind.¡± Then Simon handed today¡¯s examination results to Cassandra and said with a little admiration, ¡°Dr. Quirke, you are really amazing. I went to the hospital today and was indeed diagnosed with cancer. The doctor said that I was lucky to find it in time. It might not be found out if I did the check a few days earlier. He was nowpletely convinced by Cassandra¡¯spetence and expertise, which made him feel more confident in his full recovery. ¡®I¡¯m going to start a brand new life! It¡¯s so great!¡® Simon thought joyfully. ***** The next day, when Cassandra was on her way to Simon¡¯s room to do regr treatment, she heard a loud dispute from outside. ¡°Who are you? How dare you break in!¡± ¡°Piss off or not? I¡¯ll beat you to death!¡± ¡°Guys! Beat him to death!¡± ¡°How dare youe here to steal heroin. You are courting death!¡± Hearing for a short period, Cassandra finally understood what had happened. She couldn¡¯t help but think, ¡®Who is it? This guy¡¯s gotten gut to steal drugs from Simon.¡¯ Out of curiosity, Cassandra walked towards the direction of the noise. Then she saw a strange face but with very familiar eyes. She didn¡¯t know the reason, but she had a feeling that this person was Keh. ¡°Stop it. Don¡¯t fight anymore,¡± Cassandra snarled. N?velDrama.Org copyrighted ? content. ||| 45%9 Chapter 406 Cassandra was Simon¡¯s guest of honor, and she was greeted by Simon in person. when she came, so hearing her words, all the guards stopped. ¡°Dr. Quirke, why are you here? Shouldn¡¯t you be treating the boss at this time?¡± one of the guards asked with a ttering voice.. After all, they had learned a lesson from the past and did not dare to offend Cassandra. Cassandra ignored them and asked, ¡°Who is he? Why did you beat him like this?¡± ¡°Dr. Quirke, this is a thief. We¡¯re teaching him a lesson.¡± This man on the ground gave Cassandra a strong sense of familiarity, so she subconsciously wanted to protect him. ¡°Then hand him to me. He is quite good¨Clooking¡­¡± Cassandra gazed up and down at the man, revealing an interesting smile. The guard hesitated, but he didn¡¯t dare to offend Faye. Without any choice, they all went to see Simon. After hearing the exnation from his subordinate, Simon looked at Cassandra with great interest and said, ¡°I haven¡¯t expected Dr. Quirke to have such an appetite.¡± ¡°Have you heard that I have had any girlfriends over the years? That¡¯s because I like young men,¡± Cassandra said with a smirk. Simon smiled brightly and said in a very generous tone, ¡°Since you like him, I¡¯ll give him to you. However, he stole my things. I can¡¯t let him go easily.¡± Simon was a little curious as to why Cassandra liked such a toyboy. But at the same time, he was a little suspicious. ¡°You¡¯re right. What do you want to do?¡± ¡°One hand. What do you think?¡± Simon spoke carelessly, but his tone was full of cruelty. It seemed like losing one hand was not a big deal. ¡°I¡¯m not interested in a one¨Carmed man.¡± Cassandra refused and added, ¡°But you can put it down first. After you recover, I¡¯ll leave. Then at that time, he¡¯s at your 11 21 Mon, 25 Mar Chapter 406 disposal. What do you think?¡± Simon thought for a moment and agreed, ¡°Okay. Deal.¡± Then he turned to the man and said, ¡°Remember to serve Dr. Quirke well. You can live because of him.¡± The man snorted as if he was dissatisfied with the result. ¡°I don¡¯t serve men!¡± Cassandra was speechless. If she hadn¡¯t been so sure of the real person behind that face, she would have knocked his head open right now. After finishing today¡¯s treatment for Simon, Cassandra went back to her room with that man. ¡°Take off your mask.¡± Cassandra looked at him expectantly with a cold face. ¡°This is my face. I don¡¯t need a mask.¡± The man continued to pretend that he didn¡¯t understand at all. ¡°Ken, are you really going to talk to me with this face?¡± Cassandra resumed her own sweet voice which made Keh surrender immediately. ¡°When did you recognize me?¡± ¡°When you look at me, your eyes are very familiar¡­¡± SEND GIFT ||| Chapter 407 Chapter 407 It really turned out to be Keh.

I haven¡¯t heard from you every day and can¡¯t bear it anymore, so I decided toe in to stay with you.¡± He had nned to find an opportunity to get in and be arranged to do some physically demanding work, waiting for a chance to connect with Cassandra. Unexpectedly, Cassandra had won the trust of Simonpletely and directly requested Simon to allow him to be her side. ¡°Then who is in charge now?¡± Cassandra asked. ¡°Eddie, Ethan, and Kayden. Don¡¯t worry. I came here in case you have any danger,¡± Keh said softly. When Keh lost contact with Cassandra, he felt every minute tormenting. ording to the information he got, Simon was a cruel and notorious killer. He could kill anyone for no reason. Cassandra stayed by his side every day. Any careless mistake could lead to irreversible results. Even though he knew Cassandra¡¯s intelligence, he still worried about her situation and finally decided to get into this group to protect her. ¡°All right.¡± Then Cassandra told Keh everything that had happened, including the wired. behaviors of Julius. Hearing this, Keh frowned and said, ¡°Are you suspecting him? ¡°Yes.¡± Cassandra nodded and exined, ¡°He has saved Simon three times at the risk of his life, and now he is the second¨Cinmand here. However, he asked me not to save Simon. Do you think he is an undercover agent? But it seems that he is very keen on working for Simon. Anyway, he acts strangely.¡± Cassandra wasn¡¯t sure about the real aim of Julius either. It was very hard to guess his intention. Keh shook his head and said, ¡°I don¡¯t think he is an undercover agent. I have Chapter 407 checked that there was no man arranged by us. Even if there used to be some. people, they all had been killed by Simon.¡± Keh pondered for a moment and said, ¡°Jeremiah didn¡¯t find any useful information. But ording to the photo you gave us, we did find a simr person. I¡¯m not sure if they¡¯re the same person.¡± Cassandra asked, ¡°What do you mean?¡± ¡°The man we found is called Jaedon Linton. He¡¯s engaged in scientific research and has a girlfriend. His girlfriend is a narcotics police. ¡°One day, she got a task to get close to Simon to get sufficient evidence about him to arrest him. Even though it was a dangerous mission, she still epted it and sessfully approached Simon. She got a lot of information and intelligence but was still found out by Simon who killed her and dumped her body at the door of the police station. ¡°Jaedon took his girlfriend¡¯s body back home and never showed up. Now Julius had a mustache and his face was covered with scars. So, it was difficult to tell if it was the same person. And even if Julius was Jaedon, they didn¡¯t know his real aim and n. Then Keh added, ¡°If he were Jaedon, it was impossible for him to help Simon. ¡°Jaedon¡¯s parents were also addicted to drugs and died at Simon¡¯s hands. ¡°So, he can¡¯t support Simon and help him.¡± ¡°Then I¡¯ll ask Julius directly,¡± Cassandra dered after getting this important information. However, Keh stopped Cassandra, hoping they could take actionter in case of being noticed by Simon. Unexpectedly, Julius came by himself. Julius directly pushed the door open and questioned angrily, ¡°Why are you still treating Simon?¡± ¡°What¡¯s the problem?¡± When Julius noticed the man beside Cassandra, he asked alertly, ¡°Who is he?¡± ¡°A gigolo asked from Simon. Is there a problem?¡± Cassandra chuckled. Chapter 407 ¡°Since you have heard my words, you must die!¡± Julius took out his gun and pointed it directly at Keh. ¡°Jaedon Linton!¡± Keh called Julius¡® real name calmly. Julius¡¯s face changed. He widened his eyes and pressed his fingers against the trigger, asking excitedly, ¡°Who on earth are you? Why do you know my name?¡± Then he recollected his sense and said, ¡°Since you know my secret, then you can¡¯t live!¡± ¡°Then why are you here? Don¡¯t you remember Simon has killed your girlfriend and parents?¡± Keh asked in a cold voice. ¡°Who the hell are you?¡± Julius asked coldly and pointed his gun at Keh¡¯s head. ¡°Tell me your stand first. Are you Simon¡¯s man?¡± Keh had to ensure Jaedon¡¯s position. ¡°His man? I wish he could die at once!¡± Julius roared even though he was trying to control his emotions. He had been staying by Simon¡¯s side for so many years and had tried to kill him many times. In fact, every day he wished to kill Simon thousands of times! It was said he had saved Simon¡¯s life three times, However, it wasn¡¯t true. In fact, he was trying to kill him, but every time he just failed because of all kinds of idents. Without any choice, he had to admit he was the saver of Simon. Every moment, he felt sick and furious with this title. He had sworn to himself that he must kill Simon by himself one day. Right now, Julius¡¯s eyes were scarlet and full of hatred. ¡°In that case, you should cooperate with us. let¡¯s catch Simon together!¡± Keh said firmly. Although Keh wasn¡¯t sure how determined Jaedon was, he bet Jaedon wouldn¡¯t forget the feeling of losing loved ones. ¡°Why should I believe you?¡± Julius suddenly recalled something and said coldly, ¡°You must be the thief who got caught today.¡± R¨ºAdt??St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only Julius turned his eyes from Keh to Cassandra suspiciously. 11:21 Mon, 25 Mar u Chapter 407 Keh paused for a second and continued, ¡°You don¡¯t have to care who I am. You just need to remember that we have the same enemy. Keh wanted to form a united front with Julius. At least it was better to have one more friend than one more enemy here. Julius was a little hesitant and then pointed at Cassandra and asked, ¡°What about him? He has been treating Simon these days and Simon is almost cured.¡± Cassandra rolled her eyes. She felt a little speechless. ¡°Who told you I was saving Simon?¡± Cassandra retorted. She had enough of being used by Julius. How could she be willing to save a drug dealer? you ¡°But you did. Simon said that he felt much better these two days. How do exin it?¡± Julius was a little angry that Cassandra, as a Clusian, helped a heinous. bad guy like Simon. Cassandra exined again, ¡°I didn¡¯t. It is just an illusion.¡± ¡°Do you think I¡¯ll believe you?¡± ¡°Believe it or not. You¡¯ll know.¡± Cassandra shrugged her shoulders calmly, which made Julius feel uncertain about his previous judgment. Ìï Chapter 408 COMMENT Chapter 408 Cassandra didn¡¯t exin too much. She and Keh would be impacted if Julius ever turned against her. ¡°Nice words. How can I trust you?¡± Julius came a long way to get to this position. It was not easy. He was about to seed, so he must be careful and make no mistakes! ¡°You have no choice other than trust me. How about I go tell Simon that you have repeatedly persuaded me not to treat him? What do you think he will do?¡± Cassandra threatened him, not telling him her identity, ¡°You¡­¡± Julius was furious. Simon believed every word Faye said. If Cassandra mentioned some words to Simon, doubt would rise inside Simon even if he hadn¡¯tpletely lost faith in Julius yet. In that case, it would be bad for Julius. ¡°What do you want me to do?¡± Julius said coldly. Since he was the one who initially provoked Cassandra, he was forced to make a concession. Keh said icily, ¡°Give us the evidence you have, and we will make him pay.¡± Evidence was what Keh needed most right now. These people would undoubtedly be brought to justice if he had sufficient evidence and worked with Cassandra. ¡°I can give you the evidence, but I have a condition!¡± Julius bargained. ¡°What¡¯s it?¡± ¡°Give me Simon. I want revenge!¡± The only thing keeping Julius alive was exacting revenge on Simon for his parents and girlfriend. If he couldn¡¯t take revenge himself, everything he had done would be meaningless. ¡°No,¡± Keh frowned and refused. ¡°Then I won¡¯t give you the evidence.¡± This was non¨Cnegotiable! ¡°I can¡¯t let you deal with such a drug dealer,¡± Keh remarked in a cold voice. Chapter 101N ¡°But you can exact revenge for thirty minutes while our men watch over you. You are free to do anything to him as long as you don¡¯t kill him. How about that?¡± Frowning, Julius was not very satisfied with this proposal. You will die too if you kill him. Thew will punish him for whatever he did. Decisions rest with judges. If you kill him, it¡¯s about venting your anger, not revenge. Keh rarely had the patience to persuade anyone as he did to Julius. Since Julius was just an alias of Jacdon Linton, he was a very well¨Cknown scientific researcher in Clusia. Such an intelligent person shouldn¡¯t be ovee by hatred. He was wee to return to his previous position. Therefore, Keh made every effort to protect Julius and avoid getting blood on his hands. Keh consented to allow Julius to exact his retribution because julius detested Simon as long as Julius wouldn¡¯t take Simon¡¯s life. Otherwise, Julius would face severe consequences. After giving it some thought, Julius looked up at Keh and asked, ¡°Do you have a say in that?¡± Julius had thought about what Keh said. He could kill Simon at the cost of his own life. If he died, histe girlfriend¡¯s parents would be left unattended in the future because she had been their only child. However, Julius would feel bad if he didn¡¯t avenge his parents and histe. girlfriend. ¡°Of course. You can do whatever to him as long as you keep his life.¡± ¡°Okay. I promise you not to kill him,¡± Julius said. ¡°Does he need to attend any significant negotiations in a few days?¡± Keh asked. It would be best if many people would be present. This content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org. Even if he couldn¡¯t take care of them all, at least he had to catch all those involved. ¡°Yes, five dayster. He has a big deal to talk about with a foreign drug dealer right here. Julius thought for a while and told them. Keh exchanged a nce with Cassandra before asking. ¡°What proof do you have to verify it?¡± Julius didn¡¯t get angry about their being suspicious but said with an annoying ||| 11:22 Mon, 25 Mar Chapter 408 expression, ¡°You can check his flight if you have excellent hacking skills.¡± ¡°Well, at least you have to tell us his name, right?¡± Keh said angrily. Julius told him a name, which Keh was a little familiar with. ¡°I¡¯ll in investigate it. You can leave now. By the way, don¡¯t forget to give us the evidence in your hands as soon as possible.¡± Keh wanted him to leave. Keh was not happy that Julius came to Cassandra¡¯s room at night! However, Keh forgot that Cassandra was dressed like a man now. They looked like a gay couple. After taking two steps, Julius feltpelled to turn around and inquire, ¡°Dr. Quirke, you seem to like men?¡± The idea that Faye genuinely enjoyed men was astounding. What was not to like about cute girls? Cassandra and Keh were both speechless. ? ¡°Fuck off,¡± Keh shouted angrily. He then turned to look at Cassandra. Her outfit was indeed misleading. Cassandra poked Keh happily, ¡°What should I do? Dr. Quirke¡¯s reputation has been ruined.¡± Her words filled Keh with a pleasant feeling! ¡°Just face it. I am the only one for Dr. Quirke even if he likes men,¡± Keh said. domineeringly. Cassandra had to be fond of him whether being a woman or a man. Cassandra smiled. ¡°Ken, you are very bossy.¡± With a bang, the door was opened while Cassandra and Keh were hugging each other. Simon saw them and walked in with a smile. ¡°I¡¯m sorry to interrupt you, Dr. Quirke.¡± Simon thought, ¡®Faye seems to be genuinely fond of this man. Had Ie a littleter, they might have gotten into bed.''¡± ||| Mon, Chapter 408 Keh cautiously pushed her away with a cold face, afraid that she might get hurt. ¡°Get away from me.¡± he said in a cold voice. Cassandra blinked. ¡°Hey, you didn¡¯t act this way a moment ago.¡± Cassandra turned to Simon. ¡°What brought you here at thiste hour?¡± Simon said tteringly, ¡°Dr. Quirke, I have a business meeting in a few days. Can you give me more medicine over the next two days so that I can look better?¡± After all, he was dealing with a foreign drug dealer. That drug dealer would think twice before cooperating if he looked weak. If so, the loss would outweigh the gain. Faye also said that he would recover in six months! SEND GIFT 0 0 Chapter 409 Chapter 409 45%1 Cassandra pretended to be in a dilemma and looked at Simon, ¡°The traditional medicine practitioner follows the principle of making gradual progress. Your condition doesn¡¯t allow you to use additional medicine.¡± This statement was filled with good intentions. Noticing her gaze on Keh, Simon was enlightened, saying, ¡°I promise I won¡¯t hold this guy responsible if you help me in this matter. When you leave, he can choose to go with you. What do you say?¡± Simon felt d that Faye liked this guy. Otherwise, he had no idea what to do now. Cassandra¡¯s eyes purposefully brightened, as though this condition was extremely alluring. ¡°I¡¯ll think about it.¡± Simon continued, ¡°Dr. Quirke, just for five days. I won¡¯t interfere with your treatment after that. What do you think?¡± Cassandra asked coldly, ¡°You¡¯re interfering with my treatment. Will you make this kind of request if someone shows up another day?¡± She wouldn¡¯t nod so easily or it would be raising suspicion. ¡°Don¡¯t worry. It¡¯s a one¨Ctime thing. It won¡¯t happen again. You can directly say no or refuse to treat me if I ask for such help again.¡± To improve his physical condition and increase his future earnings, Simon had already put his business on hold. However, now that he had finally gotten in contact with this client, he didn¡¯t want to pass up the opportunity to work with. them. He had no idea how long he would have to wait for another chance if he missed it. Cassandra thought for a while and said, ¡°Alright¡­ There won¡¯t be next time.¡± ¡°OK!¡± Simon left with satisfaction. When he walked out of the door. Mathias living next to Julius came forward and gave him an update with typed words: [Julius stayed in Dr. Quirke¡¯s room for nearly an hour before you arrived.] He wondered what Julius was up to and why he kept visiting Faye. ¡°I see. Keep watching.¡± Simon¡¯s face was cold. 11:22 Chapter 409 Then Simon entered Julius¡¯s room, where he was getting ready for bed after washing his face. He was now not working on the evidence. Besides, he wasn¡¯t in a rush. Julius assumed Simon woulde to him soon because he was aware that Mathias was keeping an eye on him and that he would tell Simon everything that happened today. He took his time washing calmly when Simon pushed open his door and asked, ¡°Julius, what are you doing?¡± ¡°I just got back from Dr. Quirke¡¯s office and was going to bed,¡± Julius said frankly. Simon felt he was mistaken to suspect Julius because of the sincere look in Julius¡¯s eyes. Simon didn¡¯t want to suspect his friend because they had experienced a lot together. However, Julius¡¯s behavior over the past two days raised suspicion. ¡°What do you want from Dr. Quirke?¡± Simon asked with pretended concern. ¡°Nothing. A bullet fragment is left in my body. I went to ask Dr. Quirke if he could remove it,¡± Julius exined. Since he¡¯de to Simon, Julius had only been shot once, and that had been when he¡¯d saved Simon. Julius had visited numerous hospitals regarding this bullet fragment, but he was informed that its removal would be challenging. When Simon heard that Julius had seen Faye about this matter, he was taken aback and thought he was overthinking. ¡°What did Dr. Quirke say?¡± Simon asked with sincere concern. Julius shook his head with a wry smile. ¡°Dr. Quirke requested an expensive medical fee. I can¡¯t afford it. Forget it.¡± Simon was slightly embarrassed, ¡°Well, I¡¯ll talk to Dr. Quirke tomorrow and see if we can do it directly.¡± They had been through a lot together. Simon could let bullet fragments remain in Julius¡¯s body all the time. ¡°Thank you.¡± Chapter 409 ¡°Okay, get some rest. I¡¯ll go talk to Dr. Quirke tomorrow.¡± Simon turned and left. Julius snorted coldly, feeling d that he had talked with Faye earlier. Otherwise, things would be complicated. The following day, Cassandra gave Keh a tour of the vige before they headed to Simon¡¯s home. ¡°You¡¯re so kind to take this guy anywhere you go, Dr. Quirke,¡± Simon teased. ¡°Of course, I¡¯m quite interested in him now. I n to take him out today. I hope you don¡¯t mind.¡± Cassandra deliberately lifted Keh¡¯s chin, and he turned his head in disgust, not looking at Cassandra. ¡°No problem. I will let Julius go with you.¡± Simon nced at them with interest. Simon was in excruciating pain today because he had requested a double dose of his medication yesterday. Simon thought, ¡®What a mistake! It hurts so much! This content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org. ¡®But it¡¯s worth it for the sake of cooperation!¡± Cassandra walked out of the vige with Keh, and Julius followed behind. them. Julius was shocked when Cassandra and Keh went to the hotel together! Were they so open¨C minded? Cassandra didn¡¯t exin much. She just asked Julius to get a room and wait for them there. With a disgusted look, Julius booked a room for himself and was ready to sleep. Julius was unaware that Eddie, Yannick, and Jeremiah were also present in the room, leading him to believe that the two men were having sex. ¡°ine, you are finally here,¡± said Jeremiah upon seeing Cassandra. ¡°If you don¡¯t show up now, I¡¯ll sneak inside to look for you.¡± In her real voice, Cassandra said, ¡°Here I am.¡± Eddie didn¡¯t realize until then that the so¨Ccalled miracle doctor was a teenage girl. And above all, it was Cassandra. He marveled at how skilled Cassandra was! 11:22 Mon, 25 Mar Chapter 409 ¡°How¡¯s it going for you inside? Did those people do anything to you?¡± Jeremiah asked with concern. He couldn¡¯t get used to not seeing Cassandra. ¡°I am fine. Simon has been restrained so far¡­ Cassandra and Keh told them everything had happened in the vige and its terrain. Jeremiah had a skill that allowed him to draw a map ording to a speech, so ten minutester, Jeremiah finished drawing the topography of the vige! Jeremiah¡¯s skill surprised Keh a little, but he was d to have discovered someone with such talent who could go to the front lines as a spy and provide information on terrains. A margin of error could be made by aputer. Keh thought information from people who had actually visited the location was more trustworthy. ¡°That¡¯s all we have. Now is the time to n. Five days from now, they will have a negotiation. We can make use of this opportunity.¡± They could return home soon once they got the job done. This ce was beautiful yet toxic. SEND GIFT ||| 0 COMMENT Chapter 410 Chapter 410 Following their discussion, Keh took Cassandra for a stroll through Hydias. At Julius¡¯s suggestion, they went to a street where the business was still open, although it was almost evening. Neon lights illuminated the night. From a high vantage point, it appeared radiant. This street was the liveliest in Hydias, and also known as the most beautiful ce on the continent for its tasty delicious food and enjoyable scenery. Due to her hectic schedule, Cassandra used toe out after midnight and either get something to eat on the nearby street or visit other streets where businesses were open. However, those ces paledpared to this street. ¡°Aydan, this ce is so beautiful,¡± Cassandra eximed. Keh assumed the identity of Aydan to enter the vige covertly. They still had to exercise caution in case they were followed by men other than Julius, although we were now outside. Cassandra spoke in a male voice as a result. To outsiders, they resembled a couple of attractive homosexual men. Keh sighed. ¡°Yes, this ce should be pure.¡± Cassandra understood what Keh meant. This ce would be drug¨Cfree in a few days after the drug dealer was busted. ¡°Don¡¯t ponder over it. Let¡¯s chill out tonight.¡± Keh said to Cassandra in a rxed tone, no longer looking worried. Everything was under control. Why didn¡¯t they enjoy the moment now that they were outside? Cassandra was overwhelmed by the locals¡® enthusiasm. Several gorgeous girls shoved Cassandra into the center of the crowd. More than a dozen girls dressed in uniforms started dancing around her, with some of them. even pushing her to jump together. Cassandra was at a loss for what to do. Keh intended to pull Cassandra from the crowd, but those performers were encircling her, making it impossible for him to get close to her. III Chapter 410 ¡°Faye,e here,¡± he shouted. These people were so weird. Why didn¡¯t they surround other people? He had no chance to approach her at all. Cassandra thought she was the target of the performance. They used to share a half¨Cminute dance routine with tourists. However, five minutes had gone by and they still hadn¡¯t finished, so Cassandra figured they should havee for her. This alerted her. ¡°All right, I¡¯ll be out!¡± Cassandra wanted to rush out, but these performers changed their performance positions and surrounded Cassandra shoulder to shoulder, still dancing with smiles. Julius became rmed upon seeing this as well. However, he couldn¡¯t shoot because there were too many people. Yet, just as he was trying to figure out a way, a gunshot suddenly sounded, causing everyone to scream and run away. Those performers fell to the ground, unconscious. Cassandra¡¯s face darkened. Who was behind all this? Keh rushed to Cassandra and asked with concern, ¡°Cassie, are you okay?¡± Then he began to check if she had any injuries. ¡°I¡¯m fine. They didn¡¯t do anything to me except surround me.¡± Suddenly, Cassandra sensed someone approaching them. Julius became anxious that someone had taken advantage of the circumstance. The lead man, whose arms were covered in tattoos, was extremely muscr and had one eye missing. To put it simply, he was strong and bulky. ¡°Are you Dr. Quirke?¡± he asked, his demeanor belying a hint of contempt. ¡°Who told you that?¡± Cassandra asked coldly. She nced at the performers lying on the ground. ¡°Did you send these people?¡± ¡°This is a meeting gift for you, Dr. Quirke. I hope you enjoyed it.¡± The tattooed manughed out loud and took a few steps forward. ¡°My boss invites you to go visit him. Would you like to go?¡± It sounded more like an unquestionable demand than a negotiation in his tone. Chapter 410 Cassandra shook her head. ¡°I don¡¯t just meet anybody. The way you invited me bothers me. Maybe I can consider meeting your boss¡± The tattooed man stopped smiling and said coldly, ¡°So, are you turning me down?¡± ¡°Now that you know who I am, do you think I will be threatened by you? Don¡¯t hold me in such low regard.¡± Faye wasn¡¯t threatened. This content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org. Who did he think he was to act so haughtily in her presence? Besides, at least half of these people were drug addicts. Why did she go with them? She wasn¡¯t blind. ¡°You have toe with me whether you feel threatened or not. Don¡¯t let my boss wait too long. Otherwise, you can¡¯t bear the consequences.¡± Suddenly, those behind him and Cassandra were encircling her as the tattooed man waved his hand. gravely. Julius shouted harshly, ¡°Don¡¯t you know that Dr. Quirke is Simon¡¯s guest of honor? Is your boss going to oppose him?¡± Julius recognized this man, who was Simon¡¯s sworn enemy, Dominic¡¯s subordinate. He didn¡¯t expect them to get the news so soon. But with the Inte now avable, everyone was aware that Faye was treating Simon. The fact that they were able to identify Faye so rapidly suggested that their strength should not be taken lightly./ ¡°Sir, our boss just wants to make friends with Dr. Quirke. Is there a problem with that? And Simon wants to meddle with it?¡± The tattooed man showed no fear. After all, Simon was sick and would die if Faye was no longer around. His boss would then own the entire business in Hydias and the continent. Therefore, he had to take Faye away with them! ¡°Is this how you make friends? You can¡¯t take Dr. Quirke away from me while I¡¯m here today.¡± Julius stood in front of Cassandra. Keh shielded Cassandra from behind as well. Keh shielded her from behind, while Julius shielded her from the front. Cassandra spoke in a cold and irrefutable tone, ¡°Make friends? Alright. I¡¯ll make Chapter 410 friends with your boss if hees to meet me at Simon¡¯s ce. Even though you want me to, I don¡¯t want to go to such a busy ce. Or get your boss here now. Maybe I will have a few words with him.¡± ¡°Who the hell are you? How dare you let my bosse to see you!¡± The tattooed man was irritated by Cassandra¡¯s words and pointed his gun directly at him. ¡°Only those who pay me medical fees could get me to their ces. I am not. interested in making friends,¡± Cassandra uttered. SEND GIFT COMMENT Chapter 411 Chapter 411 ¡°Hahaha.¡± The group of people were attracted by a burst ofughter. Who was so ignorant and laughing at this moment? However, the tattooed man bent down respectfully and put away his gun. Theughter should be from his boss. ¡°Dr. Quirke is really courageous. You maintain your integrity in the face of so many people. You are bold.¡± Dominic Jensen looked smarter and more capable than Simon, but he was also more courageous. Dominic and Zack both wore a string of beads around their wrists. They looked like sincere believers. He made a somewhat conventional bow to Cassandra. Cassandra nodded slightly and responded in a cold voice, ¡°Mr. Jensen, you do not exhibit good hospitality. I find it truly repulsive.¡±¡± Julius had just now revealed to her in a low voice that hisst name was Jensen. Dominic was not annoyed at Cassandra¡¯s words. Instead, he appreciated it very much. ¡°Dr. Quirke, would you like to have a cup of coffee with us?¡± Dominicughed. ¡°Of course, Mr. Linton and this gentleman are wee too.¡± Cassandra and Keh looked at each other, and Keh nodded. Keh let his guard down and quietly took out his phone to send a message to Eddie. Eddie immediately asked his superiors whether to arrest Dominic and was told immediately: [inclothesmen are on that street. Just give them a chance.] The tattooed man led them into a nice cafe before guarding the door. No one was allowed to enter. ¡°Dr. Quirke, you can order whatever you want.¡± Dominic made a gesture of invitation. ¡°Honey, you go ahead,¡± Cassandra gave Keh the menu and spoke in a soft 11:22 Mon, 25 Mar 2 Chapter 411 voice, quite different from the icy one from earlier. Keh almost dropped the menu out of excitement. This was the first time she called him ¡°honey¡°. If it weren¡¯t for the wrong time and ce, he would do something to her to show his affection. Cassandra felt a little embarrassed as well. She didn¡¯t know why she spat it out just like that, although they were pretending to be in a rtionship. Dominic looked at Faye with interest. ¡°You brought your boyfriend when you traveled to treat patients?¡± Cassandra snorted coldly before saying proudly, ¡°He is my new boyfriend.¡± Keh was speechless. Cassandra was now getting better at making fun of herself. Julius didn¡¯t know what to do at this point, so all he could do was hope Simon would arrive soon to save Faye. Dominic was stunned for a moment, but he also understood that sessful people had special hobbies¡­ Keh deliberately ordered a cup of coffee with a cold face. Cassandra said cheerfully, ¡°I would like his kind of coffee.¡± She looked at Dominic and came straight to the point, ¡°What can I do for you, Mr. Jensen?¡± Dominic became serious and said, ¡°Dr. Quirke, I don¡¯t want you to treat Simon. Can you understand what I mean?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t understand. Just tell me.¡± ¡°Simon and I share the biggest market in Hydias, and our businesses areparable. We are deadly rivals. But he did get in touch with a drug dealer from Atharia. In a few days, if they cane to a cooperative agreement, he will have the upper hand. So, I don¡¯t want you to cure him. Dominic assumed that Simon would deteriorate rapidly within six months without Faye¡¯s treatment and eventually die. By then, he would dominate the whole drug business in Hydias! O 1:22 Mon, 25 Chapter 411 ¡°I don¡¯t interfere in anyone¡¯s business, especially my client¡¯s business. I just treat my patients. You should handle whatever is between you two on your own,¡± Cassandra said. This was a refusal. They would be busted anyway for what they did. ¡°Dr. Quirke, you are treating him for money. Just tell me an amount and I¡¯ll double it, Dominic said with great generosity. Faye did this for money. Dominic knew exactly how much Simon could afford to her. ¡°Simon offered me 800,000 thousand dors. You will offer me the same amount, plus 50% of that. What do you say?¡± Cassandra said. Dominic was in disbelief to hear that. No way? Simon was such a mean person. He knew better than anyone that Simon wouldn¡¯t make such a big financial offer ¡°That¡¯s impossible.¡± Dominic didn¡¯t believe it. Now their coffee was served. Dominic turned around and said something to his man. Cassandra took the opportunity to flick a small pellet in her hand into Dominic¡¯s cup. There was no ssh because the pellet was so small. Cassandra felt lucky. Fortunately, it was coffee without flowers. Otherwise, it would be easy to find out. Keh noticed it, though. They took a sip of coffee quietly. Dominic noticed their movements after he had finished speaking. Taking up coffee, he gestured to Cassandra before taking a sip. the Cassandra gently smiled. ¡°I have my principles, Mr. Jensen. Since I¡¯ve taken charge. of this, I won¡¯t easily stop treating Simon as long as he doesn¡¯t cross my bottom. line.¡± ¡°Well said!¡± a loud voice sounded outside, along with amotion. The tattooed man wanted to stop Simon froming in but didn¡¯t seed. Simon walked in bravely and sat near Cassandra. ¡°I didn¡¯t expect you to be so principled, Dr. Quirke.¡± Cassandra was speechless. ¡°Dominic, I invited Dr. Quirke toe here.¡± That¡¯s not nice of you to have poached her this way!¡± Simon angrily looked at Dominic, very dissatisfied with his 45%E R¨ºAdt??St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only Chapter 411 behavior. ¡°Dr. Quirke should go to whoever offers the highest price, isn¡¯t that right?¡± Dominic was surprised by Simon¡¯s sudden appearance. He seemed to genuinely care about his condition! Dominic smiled proudly, taking another sip of coffee. It tasted good today. ¡°You are talking nonsense!¡± ¡°You are talking nonsense!¡± Simon yelled, pping the table. ¡°You¡¯d better behave yourself. I invited Dr. Quirke first. Don¡¯t you dare try to poach him again!¡± Simon warned him. Keh was fiddling with his phone. His current identity was Faye¡¯s new love, and he didn¡¯t participate in such negotiations between ¡°big shots¡°. Simon didn¡¯t bother talking to him further but turned to Cassandra and said, ¡°Dr. Quirke, let¡¯s get out of here.¡± Cassandra got up and headed to the door behind Simon, who abruptly paused and said gloatingly, ¡°Dominic, don¡¯t you notice many inclothesmen around here? I think they came for you because you came out alone today. They will not miss this opportunity.¡± ? SEND GIFT Chapter 412 Chapter 412 Dominic smiled contemptuously. ¡°Do you think I will take them seriously?¡± These people had been hunting him for so long, but they couldn¡¯t catch him. There would be no exception this time. Simon nced at Dominic with a cold face without saying anything more. However, he did hope that Dominic would be arrested so that he could dominate all the drug business in Hydias. After Simon left, Dominic looked at their backs solemnly and coldly told the tattooed man, ¡°Get out of here now.¡± However, his feet went weak when he was about to leave, and he fell directly to the floor. His entire body was weak. The tattooed man was terrified and hurriedly shouted, ¡°Mr. Jensen, what¡¯s wrong?¡± FI¡­¡± ¡°Don¡¯t move!¡± A group of inclothesmen with guns surrounded them. Some other inclothesmen also appeared from inside the store. The tattooed man was furious. He pulled out his gun and tried to fight the inclothesmen! ¡°Don¡¯te any closer!¡± The leader among inclothesmen shouted harshly, ¡°Put down the gun. Otherwise, we will shoot!¡± The tattooed man snorted coldly, ¡°You should put down your guns!¡± ¡°Surrender now! Your boss can¡¯t escape anymore!¡± Dominic was immobile on the floor. The tattooed man turned to look at his boss and found themselves in a difficult situation. ¡°From now on, he is not my boss. Go ahead. Take him away if you want to arrest him. I haven¡¯t done anything wrong. Isn¡¯t it inappropriate for you to point guns at me?¡± Dominic couldn¡¯t believe what he had just heard and yelled, ¡°Y¨CYou bastard!¡± Themander of the inclothesmen was caught in a difficult situation, unable to think of a way to break the standstill. Suddenly, the tattooed man was shot in the hand! It suddenly became chaotic, and the inclothesmen immediately took action to lon, 25 Chapter 412 control all these people! It was a huge victory even though there were only 14 people total, Dominic included. Most significantly, Dominic¨Cthe person they had been spying on for a year was finally taken into custody. The evidence of Dominic¡¯s criminal conduct had already been gathered. As long as Dominic was arrested, he could be sent to court immediately and convicted! When Dominic was taken away, he was unwilling to ept it, his eyes menacing. He was still baffled as to what had gone wrong to render him immobile. He could have escaped, but now he had to watch himself taken away, and that was worse than death! ***** Simon returned to the vige and said to Cassandra apologetically, ¡°Dr. Quirke, I¡¯m sorry about what happened tonight. Because of me, you¡­¡± ¡°It¡¯s okay. You came to rescue me,¡± Cassandra said, but she still looked unhappy, so Simon thought that she was still a little angry. ¡°I was negligent this time.¡± Simon paused and added, ¡°Dr. Quirke, please don¡¯t go. outside recently. Otherwise, I am afraid this might happen again.¡± ¡°Are you going to hold me here?¡± Cassandra looked cold and irritated. ¡°I have important meetings in a few days. I hope you can understand me,¡± Simon uttered. Cassandra looked at Keh who nodded and said reluctantly, ¡°Fine.¡± Simon looked at Keh and Cassandra in surprise. He thought, ¡®Why have they. switched positions after a tour outdoors?¡® After Cassandra and the others returned to their rooms, Simon asked Julius seriously, ¡°What happened today?¡± Julius told him that Faye took Keh to the hotel, including the noise of knocking on the wall from time to time. Although the hotel room was soundproof, the knocking on the wall was still. audible. Chapter 412 Simon was speechless. He didn¡¯t expect Faye to be so open¨Cminded. ¡°And then?¡± Simon asked. ¡°That man didn¡¯t seem the same after leaving the hotel. He and Dr. Quirke went to the street where the business was open to chill out. But soon after we got here, we were surrounded by performers. That guy was a little nervous¡­ Then we ran into Dominic¡¯s men.¡± Simon nodded, what Julius said was close to what he had learned. It seemed that Julius didn¡¯t lie. ¡°I appreciate all of your efforts today. No.one else could cure me if Dominic could sessfully poach Dr. Quirke today,¡± Simon thanked him heartily. ¡°That¡¯s my job.¡± Julius nodded. In Cassandra¡¯s room, Keh couldn¡¯t help but ask, ¡°Did you drug Dominic¡¯s coffee?¡± ¡°Yep.¡± Cassandra raised her eyebrows.. Keh was a little surprised. ¡°Then he can¡¯t escape now, right? ¡°Well, as long as those inclothesmen act fast, he should have been arrested.¡± The moment Cassandra finished speaking, Keh received a message from Eddie: [Dominic has been arrested.] They both grinned simultaneously at the news. They finally have taken one down. Although it was not Simon, residents here could live in a more peaceful ce with fewer drug dealers, and the police would be safer. Meanwhile, Simon also received the news. When he learned that Dominic had been carried away via a stretcher, he was a little shocked. What on earth was going on? Julius said carefully, ¡°When you were drinking coffee, I saw Dr. Quirke¡­ Simon immediately walked out of the room toward Cassandra¡¯s room as Keh prepared to celebrate and kiss Cassandra. With a bang, the door was opened. Keh held back his anger! 11.22 Mon, 25 Mar Chapter 412 He cursed inwardly, ¡®Fuck! Is he out of his mind? Why does hee in without knocking on the door every time? This man interrupted me twice when I tried to kiss my girl! ¡°Unbelievable! I¡¯ll make him pay when we catch him!¡± ¡°Dr. Quirke, I¡¯m sorry to bother you again.¡± Simon smiled awkwardly, but he was too eager to know the answer. ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡± Cassandra looked cold. ¡°Dominic suddenly became immobile. I just want to know if you¡­¡± ¡°So, what if I did it or not?¡± ¡°If you did it, I really have to thank you!¡± Simon was ecstatic. He had been looking forward to this day for a long time, but he was always powerless over Dominic. When Faye finally took action, Dominic was arrested right away. Cassandra snorted lightly, ¡°That was just a payback for what he has done to me. He was just out of luck.¡± She looked at Simon. ¡°What happened to that guy?¡± Simon grew more excited as he gave it more thought. ¡°He was arrested by the police. It¡¯s not a big deal anymore.¡± He thought of something and said, ¡°Dr. Quirke, I will talk to youter!¡± After saying that, he left immediately. Dominic¡¯s business was exclusively his to handle and could not be shared with anyone else! He immediately got Leva over and told her to take action right away. SEND GIFT This content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org. 0 Chapter 413 Chapter 413 Keh coldly watched Simon leave and said to Cassandra indifferently, ¡°He wants to take over all Dominic¡¯s business.¡± It was wrong. It was destined to be a restless night. Dominic had been arrested and all his business associates would be arrested tonight. Cassandra¡¯s bone¨Csoftening pill would go in vain if the Falcon Special Operations. Force, the Air Force and the Marine Corps, and the Narcotics Squad in Hydias couldn¡¯t eliminate Dominic¡¯sir. That was worth a lot of money. ¡°Of course. Look at how excited Simon was. I guess he has been coveting Dominic¡¯s business for long. He won¡¯t give up this opportunity.¡± Cassandra stated carelessly. She was all too familiar with the risks involved in pursuing wealth. That was to say, he would make a lot more money than others if he took advantage of this opportunity an hour sooner than others. Besides, drugs were very profitable, and Simon wouldn¡¯t let this chance slip away. ¡°I hope our men can catch Simon during this action. That will save us a lot of trouble.¡± Keh liked this idea was good, but it was not usible. Simon wouldn¡¯t get involved in such matters in person. Otherwise, he wouldn¡¯t have sent Leva to do it. It seemed that Leva¡¯s position was higher than Julius¡¯s. The next day, Simon¡¯s face was gloomy. Recently, receiving treatment had been his happiest moment, but he seemed off today. Cassandra said, ¡°You¡¯d better stay upbeat during my treatment. We can postpone it another time if you are not feeling well now.¡± Simon red at Faye. ¡°What did you say?¡± Cassandra replied fearlessly, ¡°I don¡¯t think I need to repeat it!¡± Simon abruptly pulled a gun on Cassandra out of rage. ¡°Do you really think highly of yourself, Dr. Quirke?¡± III Chapter 413 Cassandra rolled her eyes contemptuously before sitting down on the couch. ¡°You can shoot me. But before that, think about who will die first. Once the treatment starts, your life will be in danger unless I call it off. I can let you die at any time if you piss me off. Go ahead if you don¡¯t believe me. It¡¯s not bad to have you die with me.¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t think that Simon dared to shoot her. His behavior today might have been a result of him venting his anger because his actions yesterday did not go as nned. Julius made an effort to resolve the conflict. Grinning, he moved to stand between Cassandra and the gun and uttered, ¡°Dr. Quirke, calm down. Leva is missing. Our boss is upset today. Please forgive him.¡± Julius said so to tell Cassandra that Leva was missing, which meant that Leva might have been arrested. That was why Simon was upset. After ¡°appeasing¡± Cassandra, Julius looked at Simon, put away his gun, and said. earnestly, ¡°Dr. Quirke is our guest. She¡¯s here to treat you. Shouldn¡¯t we focus on the negotiation in three days now?¡± Simon finally came back to his senses. He took back the pistol and said in a much. kinder tone, ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Dr. Quirke. I didn¡¯t mean to offend you.¡± He was really too reckless just now. If he offended Dr. Quirke again, it would be a great loss for him. Cassandra ignored Simon, not nning to continue her treatment. She just sat on the couch without looking at anyone. Simon was filled with embarrassment but more with rage now. However, he had no way to let it out! After around fifteen minutes, Cassandra spoke, ¡°Simon, I want you to remember that I don¡¯t like violence and hate people pointing guns at me. Threats are thest. thing I fear. No one can threaten me. Like you guys, I always have a n B.¡± Cassandra made n B when it came to Simon. After all, the people she had saved in the past were not as dangerous as Simon. That was why she had to take precautions when dealing with Simon. Simon¡¯s face darkened all of a sudden. He didn¡¯t expect Faye to have taken precautions. Did she mean that if he identally killed her now, he would shortly. Chapter 413 die as well? What a marvelous person! If she were one of us¡­. ¡°I apologize for my action. Leva didn¡¯te back like most of my men did. Some of the men lost their lives during their missionsst night. I am very worried about her,¡± Simon exined truthfully. It was not a secret that Leva had vanished. The whole world knew that he was a drug dealer. Why should he be bothered that Faye would find that out? Cassandra said nothing more but took out the medicine and began to treat Simon. When it was done, someone came in and whispered in Simon¡¯s ear, ¡°Boss, Leva hast been arrested.¡± Cassandra was appreciative that her ears could pick up on the whisper. Simon¡¯s face darkened, but he didn¡¯t flip out because Cassandra was present. He held back his anger and waited for her to leave. Cassandra found it awkward to stay here longer, so she packed up her medical kit and left right away. Inside Simon¡¯s room, he asked with a cold face, ¡°What the hell is going on?¡± ¡°The Narcotics Squad in Hydias and Falcon Special Operations Force assisted with yesterday¡¯s operation. They were allegedly sent here while participating in a border exercise in Hydias.¡± The man didn¡¯t dare to say that the police were sent to arrest them. Although it was true, the boss would destroy them all if he said so. ¡°Damn it!¡± Simon angrily threw the napkin in his hand. away. How could these bastards monitor him so closely? In a few days, he had a meeting with a client to discuss cooperation. How was the client supposed to come how that the police had him under such close observation? As expected, Simon received a phone call, and the person on the other end said, ¡°Simon, I heard that your man was arrested. Is it true?¡± 45% This content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org. Chapter 413 ¡°No, it¡¯s not true. I sent that person to be the scapegoat. Steven, our cooperation will go smoothly. You must believe me!¡± Simon exined calmly. ¡°But I heard that Dominic has been arrested.¡± Steven¡¯s tone sounded like he refused tomunicate and cooperate. ¡°He was arrested because Dr. Quirke drugged him for his offense and made him immobile. That was why the police arrested him. It has nothing to do with us.¡± ¡°Then I¡¯ll see you in three days.¡± Steven was a little curious. He had heard that Simon invited Faye to treat him, but Dominic offended Faye. He wondered whether Faye had given Dominic the drug on Simon¡¯s orders or for other reasons. However, the one who was apprehended was unfortunate! Steven was looking forward to seeing the so¨Ccalled miracle doctor in three days! SEND GIFT Chapter 414 Chapter 414 Simon put on a suit and tie early in the morning three dayster. He had some important business to do today, so he had to dress up to show his sincerity. Having been ¡°specially treated¡± by Cassandra for a few days, Simon looked like he was in good spirits. ¡°Thank you for taking care of me these days, Dr. Quirke. I feel much better now, and I¡¯m sure that the negotiation is gonna go well today.¡± Simon was also very excited and confident about theing negotiation. Cassandra just nodded and said, ¡°I¡¯ll leave since you¡¯re going to have a negotiation. I haven¡¯t got a chance to hang out with my boyfriend these days. Is it okay if I leave for a few hours?¡± What Cassandra really wanted was to get out as soon as possible so they could take down all these people at once. Simon was a little hesitant. He didn¡¯t catch Faye doing anything strange except for treating her, and even Mathias didn¡¯t see her go out or see anybody. She just did her job and that was all. Simon thought for a while and said in a deep voice, ¡°OK, but I have to ask someone else to follow you because the negotiation is very important and I need Julius there.¡± Now that Leva had been arrested, Julius had toe with Simon to make sure everything went well. ¡°It¡¯s up to you,¡± Cassandra said indifferently. Anyway, they were all going to be arrested today, so she didn¡¯t care who would follow her today. The only problem was Julius might be involved in this. It was going to be a tough day today. Cassandra got the evidence collected by Julius and sent it to Jeremiah, which was enough to put him in jail. Therefore, all she and Keh had to do was finish the job unharmed. ¦§ ¡°OK, I¡¯ll ask them to go with you,¡± Simon said. He asked Mathias and another person to follow Cassandra and Keh out. Cassandra snorted and thought, ¡®It seems that Simon trusts Mathias a lot. ||| Chapter 414 However, she didn¡¯t have to worry about that anymore. 45% Keh and Cassandra came out quickly and deliberately went to a ce where there were few people. After ncing at each other, they each knocked out those who followed them without much effort. ¡°What are we gonna do about them?¡± Cassandra asked. Keh took out his phone, which wasn¡¯t the one he used in the vige. He searched for a while and said in a low voice, ¡°There¡¯s a police station 656 feet ahead. We take them there and we leave Cassandra was very cautious. She searched Mathias in case he had a tracker or a bug. As expected, she found a tracker. She looked around, hailed a taxi, and paid the driver 3 thousand dors to drive aimlessly around the city with the tracker. He could stop every hour to rest for twenty minutes and could go to the hotel at noon to rest. All he had to do was throw the tracker in the river at night. Hearing this, the driver was delighted, thinking, ¡®What? Can I get 3 thousand dors for driving with this tracker? I can¡¯t even make that much money in a month! Besides, I can continue my work while doing this. That¡¯s amazing!¡® Thinking of this, the driver agreed quickly. Cassandra transferred the money to him and told him to finish the task well. Then Cassandra and Keh took Mathias and the other man directly to the nearest police station. After bringing them to the police, they left. After going back to the hotel, Cassandra and Keh went to their rooms, took off their makeup, and revealed their real faces. Just then, Julius texted them that Simon¡¯s meeting with the dru Atharia had gone smoothly. Everything was ready and it was their turn. dealer from Chapter 414 ¡°Let¡¯s go!¡± They all went out and headed for the vige. Soon, everyone took their positions and surrounded the vige. They each knocked out a man guarding the vige and gave them no chance to fight back. Although they had taken out They were one step closer to the center of the someone reacted quickly as many of the men guarding the vige as they and blew a horn, which put Simon on his guard. He thought, ¡®Damn! Someone broke in! How did that happen?¡± ¡°Hurry up and run!¡± Simon ran out immediately, and the people behind him were. protecting the drug dealer from Atharia. As soon as he stepped out of the gate, however, he was surrounded by Keh. and his subordinates. ¡°Stop running, Simon, Steven!¡± Keh said in a cold voice. Steven frowned, angry about being caught by the Clusian police. What pissed him more was that Keh recognized him. Steven thought for a long time and asked, ¡°Are you Keh?¡± Keh sneered and raised the gun¡¯slightly. ¡°I haven¡¯t seen you in a while, Steven.¡± Steven¡¯s face darkened more. He couldn¡¯t believe that he was talking to Keh, who almost killed him before. Therefore, he roared at Simon, ¡°You bastard! How could you get caught by police?¡± ¡°I didn¡¯t¡­¡± Simon didn¡¯t know what went wrong. Everything had been going well recently so he didn¡¯t know why the police showed up out of the blue. Suddenly, he seemed to think of something. ¡®No, they¡¯re not the police. They are soldiers. ¡°They¡¯re Clusian soldiers! Damn!¡± Simon looked at Keh and asked with a pissed look, ¡°How did you find this ce?¡± ¡°I led him here,¡± Cassandra said in a soft voice. III Chapter 414 Simon was sure that he had never seen Cassandra, but he had no idea how she got in. N?velDrama.Org copyrighted ? content. Cassandra suddenly realized something, so she smiled and said in a male voice, ¡°Thanks for the 1.2 billion dors, Simon. It belongs to the state now.¡± Simon looked shocked because she sounded just like Faye. ¡°Are you Dr. Quirke?¡± He didn¡¯t expect Faye to be a young woman! He thought, ¡®How could it be possible? ¡®Wait. She¡¯s not an ordinary woman. Is she also a soldier?¡® ¡°Are you a soldier?¡± Simon asked. Cassandra shook her head and said sarcastically, ¡°I¡¯m not, but my little boyfriend is.¡± Hearing this, Eddie¡¯s mouth twitched. He thought, ¡®Come on, is this a game? Why does she call him her little boyfriend? Isn¡¯t she younger than him?¡± Simon turned to look at Keh beside Cassandra and found him a little familiar. ¡®You¡¯re the boy who stole my heroin!¡± Keh was speechless, thinking, ¡®Should I kill him? He talked too much!¡± Eddie thought in shock, ¡®What? Oh my goodness, what a perfect couple. Suddenly, Cassandra winked at Julius to suggest to him that he should leave now. Julius took several steps back quietly, but Simon noticed it and turned around to yell at him, ¡°What are you doing?¡± Keh fired a shot into the air to deter them while Julius took the chance to hide. the soldiers. Simon, who was holding his head, stood up abruptly and stared at Julius with wide. eyes. III Chapter 415 Chapter 415 Simon didn¡¯t expect that Julius would betray him. ¡°It was you who led them here!¡± Simon pointed at Julius. He trusted Julius so much yet thetter helped those soldiers to arrest him. Even Julius couldn¡¯t believe that he could get the protection of the soldiers and get rid of Simon with their help. It was beyond his expectations. N?velDrama.Org copyrighted ? content. ¡°It¡¯s not his fault, Simon. It was you who hired Dr. Quirke to treat you. You asked for it.¡± Cassandra said sarcastically, ¡°Don¡¯t you know Dr. Quirke always does research on people before he treats them? I have to say you¡¯re the most suspicious among all the patients.¡± Simon looked irritated. He wished that he could rip Cassandra¡¯s face off. ¡°You son of a bitch. How dared you deceive me?¡± ¡°Ah!¡± The next second, Simon let out a scream in pain. Keh broke his wrist and said madly, ¡°Watch your mouth. Don¡¯t you dare curse her!¡± After saying that, Keh threw the burly Simon out like garbage. Eddie waved his hand, and each of the people behind him subdued Simon¡¯s subordinates and took the guns from them. Then they put handcuffs on them and took them away. Julius was tied to say something when he saw Simon be taken away. He looked at Keh and Cassandra and was pretty sure that they were Faye and the young boy, who promised him two hours alone with Simon. He thought, ¡®Why are you taking him away directly?¡® Keh noticed Julius¡¯s anxious look and realized what he was thinking, so he said. in a low voice, ¡°Come with us!¡± Overjoyed, Julius followed behind Keh. Just then, Eddie turned around and asked unhappily, ¡°Who is he, Keh? Isn¡¯t he also a drug dealer?¡± Chapter 415 Eddie thought, I just saw him stand beside Simon. Why is he suddenly the one we have to protect?¡± ¡°He¡¯s the one Jeremiah found out.¡± Keh¡¯s words surprised Eddie. He thought, ¡°What? They don¡¯t look alike at all! I didn¡¯t recognize him just now!¡± ¡°The one who does scientific research?¡± Eddie wasn¡¯t sure, but Keh nodded at him and said yes. They directly sent Simon and Steven to the Public Security Bureau of Hydias. They were the center of attention in this thing, so the easiest and most efficient way for them was to just send those people there. When the director of the Public Security Bureau saw Simon, he almost burst into tears of joy because this demon who killed a lot of policemen and ruined countless families was finally arrested. It felt like a dream. ¡°Thank you so much. I really appreciate that. It may take me a lot more than I expect to get him without you.¡± It was a great thing that they caught him so soon because the longer Simon stayed atrge, the greater the danger he posed to society. ¡°It¡¯s our job. Now you can decide yourself what to do about him.¡± Keh said in a low voice, ¡°By the way, I once promised a man a chance to get his revenge. Please give him half an hour alone with Simon and you¡¯d better have a doctor on standby because he may need to resuscitate Simon.¡± The director was stunned, thinking, ¡®Is it a legal thing to do?¡± ¡°He provided us with vital information and evidence for the arrest. Besides, his girlfriend and parents were killed by Simon, so please give him half an hour.¡± Seeing the director¡¯s hesitant look, Keh had to tell him the truth. Whoever provided vital evidence could ask for anything. Besides, Keh had already said yes, so he had no reason to refuse. ¡°OK. Just leave it to me.¡± The director called the doctor immediately and sent someone to the surveince room so that he could delete the half¨Chour video after this was over. ***** Julius did everything he wanted to Simon and went out with tears all over his face. Chapter 415 He thought, I¡¯ve avenged you, babe. I know as police, you wouldn¡¯t want me to kill someone, so I just beat him up and stabbed him three times. ¡®He¡¯ll get the punishment, and he¡¯s going to burn in hell for what he has done.¡± Cassandra had mixed feelings when she saw Julius¡¯s bloodshot eyes. He looked so lonely. Walking the path of revenge was lonely, and one tended to feel even lonelier after the revenge was done. If it weren¡¯t for his girlfriend and parents, Julius might have given up long ago. ¡°You should have faith in thew. All you have to do now is get back to who you were and start a new life.¡± Keh couldn¡¯t help persuading him. He knew very well what it was like to lose someone he loved. He thought, ¡®Cassie probably went through something simr in her previous life.¡± He had nothing in his life to care about after she died, and he would probably kill himself after avenging her. Fortunately, Cassandra was given a second chance, which also gave him a second chance to protect her. ¡°I know,¡± said Julius. Then he looked at Cassandra and asked curiously, ¡°Have you been treating Simon. these days? He looks pretty good.¡± Now everything was over. Simon was arrested and Julius could finally move on. Therefore, he was curious about what Faye had done to Simon these days. He suspected that she was seriously treating Simon because thetter was getting better. Cassandra said with a mysterious smile, ¡°Of course not.¡± She continued, ¡°Have you given any thought to what we should do if the mission fails? Or have you ever thought about what I should do if you were a double agent? I had a n b because there was no way I could trust you with me and my fellow men. ¡°Assuming you¡¯re a double agent, I want to at least make sure my fellow men have a chance to retreat. Otherwise, what are we gonna do if you run with Simon?¡± SEND GIFT 0 Chapter 413 Julius was even more confused. He thought. ¡®Dr. Quirke¡¯s assumption is right. Trusting a drug dealer is a risky business, so she has to do n b ahead of time.¡± ¡°You still haven¡¯t told me what treatment you¡¯ve been giving Simon these past few days. ¡°All I can tell you is that you couldn¡¯t go far if you or someone else had run with Simon. We¡¯re ahead of schedule today and you¡¯ll see Simon in agony three hourster. He won¡¯t go anywhere.¡± She spent a lot to get the medicine and with ten days of continuous use, it became more effective. What she didn¡¯t expect was that Simon asked for it and told her to increase the dose. Therefore, she had no choice but to put him in jail ahead of schedule. It had been two hours since Simon was arrested, so in another hour, he would suffer. This g pain would follow him until he was shot. Only then would the souls of the policemen who died because of him and the families he destroyed rest in peace. 0 COMMENT Chapter 416 Chapter 416 Julius was more curious so he decided to stay a little longer to see how painful Simon would be.. He did nothing but stab Simon three times, but the wound was so bad and it wouldn¡¯t stop bleeding. Julius became excited at the thought of Simon in great pain. ¡°Really?¡± he asked. What she was implying was that whether this mission seeded or failed, Simon couldn¡¯t go anywhere. Even the most tenacious man couldn¡¯t bear this kind of pain, which would surely dy his escape. In this way, they had a chance to catch up with him and capture him. He couldn¡¯t have escaped anyway. ¡°Just wait for it if you don¡¯t believe me,¡± Cassandra said indifferently. That was exactly what Julius wanted. He wanted to see how Simon would end up. Just then, Eddie walked up to Keh and said, ¡°Steven wants to see you.¡± Keh seemed to be pondering when he heard this. He nced at Cassandra and said to Eddie, ¡°OK.¡± Keh went to see Steven, and Cassandra waited for him outside. Steven sat in the interrogation room and stared with a fierce look at Keh, who didn¡¯t give a damn about him. ¡°I heard that you wanted to see me,¡± Keh said coldly. ¡°You don¡¯t have the right to arrest me, Keh. Tell them to set me free.¡± In Steven¡¯s opinion, Keh was as annoying as ever. During Keh¡¯s time in Atharia, he found that Steven was selling drugs, so he raided their stronghold with his fellows. If Steven hadn¡¯t run so fast, he would have been killed by Keh. He didn¡¯t expect that he would be caught by Keh after so many years and that Keh joined the Clusian army. That was ridiculous to him. = 11:23 Mon, 25 Mar Chapter 416 ¡°I told you that I would find you and catch you, Steven. Do you think I was just kidding?¡± Keh snorted. He thought, ¡®You asked for it. You knew that I was back in Clusia yet you still came here to do business with Simon. You came to me yourself.¡± ¡°I have to remind you that I¡¯m Atharian and I¡¯m going back to Atharia, so the Clusian police can¡¯t do anything about me,¡± Steven said with a smirk. He thought, ¡®Yes, I¡¯m captured by Keh, but so what? I¡¯m Atharian. He can¡¯t do anything to me.¡® Keh was amused by how stupid Steven was. He said, ¡°Youmit a crime in Clusia, so you should be dealt with ording to the Clusianw. Do you want to be deported back to Atharia? That¡¯s not gonna happen. Just stay in jail.¡± Keh didn¡¯t want to waste time on this because he knew that Steven was trying to emphasize that he was Atharian and not subject to the Clusianw. The truth was that things were different now and anyone whomitted a crime in Clusia must be sentenced under the Clusianw. After Keh and Cassandra left, Julius had been waiting outside. Suddenly, Simon struggled violently and caused his newly bandaged wound to open again. He yelled, ¡°It hurts so much! It¡¯s killing me! R¨ºAdt??St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only ¡°Help me! Doctor, help me! ¡°I¡¯m dying! ¡°Where is the doctor? Get me a doctor, Sir!¡± Simon was desperate because he, a drug dealer, was calling the police. Having learned what was going on from his subordinates, the director of the Public Security Bureau went to check on Simon out of curiosity. He was surprised to see Julius there. ¡°Why are you still here?¡± ¡°I want to see Simon suffer.¡± Julius sounded a little excited. He thought, ¡®Dr. Quirke told me the truth. Once the three hours were up, Simon started screaming for help.¡¯ Generally speaking, drug dealers valued money more than life, so the medicine O Chapter 43K that made Simon so painful that he called the doctor and the police must not be an ordinary one. Julius admired Faye even more because she was not only brave and intelligent but also highly skilled. The director was a little curious. ¡°You stayed here because you knew Simon would end up like this, didn¡¯t you?¡± ¡°Yes, and it all thanks to Dr. Quirke¡¯s medicine. He won¡¯t die, but the pain in his body will keep eating him.¡± Julius suddenly felt a little sad as he spoke. ¡°Dr. Quirke said that it was for those policemen who sacrificed.¡± The director was surprised to know that it was Faye¡¯s doing. He thought, ¡®Didn¡¯t he ept Simon¡¯s offer to treat him?¡® Julius noticed that the director was confused so he exined it to him. Only then did the director feel relieved.

Those people who used to go to Whitecrane Hall to cause trouble gathered at the door to clean up the rubbish and graffiti they had left. What was more, they took a small ckboard and stuck many apology notes on it. Since Faye had been proven innocent, Whitecrane Hall should be back to normal soon.

After all, they sold medicine and customers wouldin if they shut down for a month. ***** Keh and Eddie were about to go back with the troops. To their surprise, they got a call from their superior John. However, instead of being angry with Keh, John praised him this time. ¡°Who is this Dr. Quirke you¡¯re talking about, Keh?

It¡¯s no big deal and you don¡¯t have to apologize at all.¡± As he spoke, he nced at Cassandra and thought, ¡®She never liked socializing with people she didn¡¯t know. If she knew Mr. Frey was going to apologize to her, she would run away immediately.¡¯ Having heard their conversation, Cassandra quickly waved her hand to say no. Seeing this, Keh smiled. John noticed that something seemed to be wrong with him, so he asked, ¡°Why are you smiling?¡± ||| Chapter 417 Keh stopped smiling and saluted him, ¡°We¡¯ve aplished our mission and are going back to Drieso, Sir. Is there anything else you want us to do?¡± ¡°Good. I look forward to your return.¡± Cassandra breathed a sigh of relief when the phone was hung up.

You should let him apologize to you sincerely!¡± Eddie joked. Honestly, he thought that she had been treated unfairly. He thought that he had to ask John and Daniel to reward her. Cassandra did more for this mission than anyone else. If she hadn¡¯t drugged Dominic, he wouldn¡¯t have been caught so quickly, and Simon wouldn¡¯t have been arrested without her treatment. ¡°No need. I didn¡¯t do it forpliments,¡± she said. She did it at the very beginning to meet Keh in Hydias. That was her main purpose and nothing else mattered. They seeded in protecting this beautiful city. Eddie was amazed by Cassandra¡¯s selflessness. He turned to Keh and said with disgust in his eyes, ¡°Honestly, you don¡¯t deserve Cassie.¡± Keh was speechless. He thought, ¡®Can he just shut up?¡® ¡°No matter what you say, Cassie is my woman!¡± Keh held her tightly in his arms. ¡°You should keep learning, bro.

He thought, ¡®National Security Bureau didn¡¯t participate in the mission. Why is Cassandra here?¡® ¡°Why are you with them, Cassie? Did Keh ask you for help?¡± John guessed. After all, Cassandra was the best hacker in the world and someone like her might be needed on the mission to do the technical work. Keh thought, ¡®No wonder they¡¯re father and son. He sounded just like Eddie!¡® ¡°No, it¡¯s not what you think, John. I was there to see someone¡­¡± Cassandra said. Eddie had nothing to hide from John. After ncing at Keh, he said proudly and excitedly to John, ¡°Dad, Cassandra is a lot better than we expected.

They used to get killed every time they caught a drug dealer, but with the help of Faye, they all came back safe and sound. Besides, they made Simon suffer, which was a greatfort to them. Cassandra didn¡¯t know how to deal with John¡¯s hospitality. The houses in the military residential compound were so close to each other that John¡¯s yelling drew all themanding officers who lived there. People who lived here were trusted by the state and had been nice to Keh. Although Cassandra had nothing to hide from them, she was still afraid to talk to them. Daniel was the first one toe out. As soon as he saw Cassandra, he couldn¡¯t help asking, ¡°Where have you been? I called you and texted you but never got a reply from you. What if the National Security Bureau has an important task for you?¡± He was so worried because Cassandra had never been out of contact for this long before, except for the first two months of her return to the Yates residence when she had not only been out of contact for several days but was about to quit her job. She might have left the National Security Bureau if he hadn¡¯t insisted that she took some time off. Cassandra disappeared for a week this time. Daniel was going to ask her to give a year¨Cend summary on behalf of the information security department, but he couldn¡¯t find her. He thought she had had an ident. Fortunately, she came back safely. Cassandra was stunned by his roar, so she said in a small voice, ¡°I went to Hydias. It was urgent and I couldn¡¯t pick up the phone in time.¡± Hearing the word ¡°Hydias¡°, Daniel was more furious. ¡°Don¡¯t you know it¡¯s ||| < Chapter 418 dangerous there these days? What if you get killed?¡± Daniel took Cassandra as his daughter. He felt sorry for all the things she went through, so he always cared a lot about her. John couldn¡¯t stand it anymore, so he interrupted, ¡°What¡¯s wrong with you, Daniel? Cassic just came back. Why are you yelling at her? She made a great contribution this time. All you need to do is compliment her, okay?¡°. Daniel red at John. He was just angry with her for always risking her life, and he knew that she wouldn¡¯t listen if he didn¡¯t lose his temper. After a short silence, Daniel asked with an awkward look, ¡°Did you get hurt?¡± Cassandra smiled warmly and shook her head. ¡°No.¡± Daniel finally breathed a sigh of relief. He stared at John and asked, ¡°What do mean by ¡®she made a great contribution¡®?¡± you John told Daniel about the operation in Hydias as well as the fact that Cassandra and Faye were the same person. Hearing this, Daniel was shocked. He worked for the National Security Bureau and ran the information security department, so he knew everything that was going on online. He knew what Faye had done but what he didn¡¯t expect was that Faye and Cassandra were the same person. ¡°You¡¯re not even neen years old, kid. How dare you go undercover like those soldiers? Aren¡¯t you afraid to meet a double agent and be betrayed by him? Don¡¯t do this again. Leave it to the police and the soldiers. You don¡¯t have to risk your life for these missions.¡± A girl her age shouldn¡¯t be doing something so dangerous. It was a job for ¡°adults¡°. ¡°I won¡¯t do it again because the two drug dealers in Hydias and the foreign drug dealer Steven are all arrested,¡± Cassandra briefed him on the current situation. Daniel was proud to hear that. He turned around and said to John, ¡°The three of them did a great job this time. How are you going to reward them?¡± Eddie, Keh, and Cassandra were speechless. Lydia had alreadye to the corner of the second floor, but since Daniel was talking to Cassandra, she found it inappropriate to interrupt them, so she didn¡¯t downstairs until they had finished talking. go Chapter 418 Hearing her voice, Eddie became excited immediately. He missed his wife so much! Just as he stretched out his hand to hug Lydia, she passed him and ran to Cassandra, who was prepared for this or she would be knocked down. Lydia said with overjoy, ¡°You¡¯re finally back, Ms. Yates. I haven¡¯t seen you for a long time.¡± Lydia not only hugged Cassandra but also rubbed her face against hers. She thought, ¡®Ms. Yates¡® face is so smooth. I just can¡¯t have enough of it.¡® While she was doing this, Eddie and Keh stared at her gloomily. Keh hadn¡¯t hugged Cassandra in a long time since the mission began. Now they were back but the first person to hold her was Eddie¡¯s wife. Keh was pissed off. Eddie had the same idea. He thought with an unhappy face, ¡®Didn¡¯t Lydia miss me? I wasn¡¯t the first person she hugged! ¡®It seems that I have to teach her a lesson tonight.¡® Thinking of this, he said unhappily, ¡°Babe.¡± Having noticed the displeasure in his tone, Lydia came back to her senses, let go Cassandra, and turned to look at him. ¡°Come and help me in the kitchen, Lydia. Leave them alone.¡± Lydia breathed a sigh of relief. ¡°One second, Mom!¡± Lydia loved her mother¨Cinw so much because she saved her just in time. Cassandra felt that it was inappropriate for her to sit and talk with these men, so she said at once, ¡°I¡¯ll join you, Mrs. Frey.¡± Then she hurriedly got up and walked into the kitchen. There were only four men in the living room, and after a while, several oldmanding officers joined them. They were all d to see those young peoplee back safe and sound.

About an hourter, the meal was ready. ¡°Let¡¯s get started. Cassie is the main cook for this meal and I¡¯m sure it will amaze you!¡± Selena said proudly. She was indeed shocked by Cassandra¡¯s quick and excellent cooking. She thought, ¡®Is there anything else Cassandra can¡¯t do? She knowsputer technology, design, and perfume making, and she¡¯s good at school and medicine and even cooks well. Keh is so lucky to have her.¡¯ } O ¤¯ §° COMMENT Chapter 419 Chapter 419 Everyone was surprised to hear that Cassandra prepared the food. They went up one by one and saw that the dining table was groaning under the weight of all the food, such as seafood, steak, chicken, and sds. They were perfect in color, aroma, and taste. They all looked appetizing. ¡°Are they really prepared by Cassie?¡± John asked with disbelief. He thought, ¡®They don¡¯t look like the food cooked by my wife. So, it¡¯s very likely that Cassie cooked the dinner. Selena smiled happily and proudly. She pointed to the two dishes on the table beside her, ¡°Except for these two dishes, Cassie prepared the rest of the food.¡± She waved at them and continued warmly, ¡°Please sit down and eat more.¡± She was happy and grateful at the same time. Selena was overjoyed when Eddie and Keh came back safely from their missions. Every time they went on a mission, she was so worried that she couldn¡¯t fall asleep. They returned safely this time, apanied by Cassandra. Therefore, Selena was deeply grateful to Cassandra. She was sitting on Cassandra¡¯s right while Keh was sitting on Cassandra¡¯s left. Both of them kept putting more food on Cassandra¡¯s te. Soon, Cassandra¡¯s te was full of food. Lydia was a little envious, so she deliberately said to Eddie coquettishly, ¡°Honey, I also want you to serve me food.¡± Eddie raised his eyebrows. He thought, ¡®Humph, now you know how good I am!¡® But he didn¡¯t say it out. Instead, he showed Lydia respect. ¡°It¡¯s my pleasure,¡± he said dly. Selena immediately looked at Lydia with eyes twinkling withughter and put two shrimps on Lydia¡¯s te. ¡°Are you jealous?¡± she asked. ¡°Selena, don¡¯t say it out!¡± Lydia said, acting like a spoiled child. Their family was so loving that others were envious. III Chapter 419 ¡°Well, your family is happy and harmonious. Both of my wife and my daughter- inw are domineering. They always fight with each other. I envy you!¡± One of John¡¯s formermanders said to John with envy in his eyes. John¡¯s son was filial. His daughter¨Cinw was well¨Cbehaved and lovely. Both his wife and daughter¨C inw got on pretty well together. What a model family! John immediately sat up straight and said proudly, ¡°That¡¯s right. Lydia is very excellent. Selena and I are fond of her very much. Selena and Lydia are getting along very well.¡± He was happy and thankful every day. Hearing this, Hector became more envious. He felt that John was deliberately showing off his family. Cassandra was also envious of Lydia, who had won the elders¡® favor. The dinnersted about two hours. They chatted cheerfully as they ate and drank. Atst, they almost finished all the food on the table. At about 10 p.m., Keh was ready to go back with Cassandra. ***** When they came back to Pinehart Mansion, Keh was surprised to see Lucas, Sylvia, and Hugo in the living room. Sylvia immediately stepped forward and walked around Cassandra with tears in her eyes. ¡°Cassie, you made Lucas and I worry sick.¡± Cassandra had been away for a long time. They wouldn¡¯t have known she was back if John hadn¡¯t shared photos on Twitter announcing the hero¡¯s return. They wouldn¡¯t have known if Hugo didn¡¯t tell them the truth. Cassandra was bold enough to go to the ce of drug dealers in Hydias alone. Did she want to kill herself? ¡°Sylvia, I¡¯m fine. Don¡¯t worry,¡± Cassandra chuckled,forting Sylvia. Lucas was also furious. ¡°Keh, I entrusted Cassie to your care, but I didn¡¯t expect you to take her to such a far¨Caway and dangerous ce!¡± he yelled, ring at Ken ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Lucas. It was my fault. I should have thought about it more carefully,¡± Chapter 419 Keh said sincerely, lowering his head. At that time, he could have taken Cassandra back to Drieso, but he still chose to let her go to the ce of drug dealers. He didn¡¯t want to put Cassandra in danger, but he still did. ¡°I decided to go there. Keh tried to stop me, but I didn¡¯t listen. I didn¡¯t want to miss out on such a good opportunity,¡± Cassandra defended Keh. At that time, they were unable to contact each other. She had already arrived in Hydias, so it was unrealistic for her to leave again. Lucas was a little bit disappointed. Why did Cassandra keep defending Keh? Keh let her go there this time. What if she wanted to go to more dangerous ces next time? ¡°Lucas, Keh also went with me. He went undercover to protect me. Please don¡¯t me him for that,¡± Cassandra continued to exin. Lucas was a little surprised. He knew Keh was the head of Falcon Special Operations Force. He couldn¡¯t believe he delegatedmand to others and went undercover. He looked at Keh inquiringly, as if to think about if Cassandra¡¯s words were true. But Cassandra would never lie, so what she said was probably true. He thought, ¡®Humph! Keh did the right thing.¡® He wouldn¡¯t let Keh go if something bad happened to Cassandra. Hugo was also in tears. Fortunately, Cassandra returned safely this time, he would be to me. Whitecrane Hall¡¯s business stopped for the time being. Employees were already given one month off as paid leave. He couldn¡¯t eat his word and cancel their holiday now. Whitecrane Hall suffered a big loss this time. Thank goodness Cassandra was safe and sound. ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Ms. Yates. I shouldn¡¯t have reported it to you in the first ce,¡± Hugo said.

Cassandra suddenly realized what she wanted to do in the future. Apart from being a traditional medicine practitioner, she also wanted to do more things for the country. The arrest of drug dealers not only rewarded Lucas¡® efforts but also made everyone pleased. On their way to the airport, they could see that the crowd was happy from their smiling faces. Keh, Eddie, and Lucas protected and helped them. Perhaps in the future, she wanted to do the same thing. Knowing she wasforting him, Hugo felt a little ashamed. ¡°Ms. Yates¡­¡± he stuttered. Hugo felt fortunate that Cassandra was safe and sound. Otherwise, he wouldn¡¯t be able to live with this. Blossom entrusted Cassandra to his care.

He did good deeds for his country and the people, but we cursed him to death. No one will be happy about it.] Cassandra was confused. She didn¡¯t get why they said she was angry. Whitecrane Hall closed because Hugo gave employees one month off. Unexpectedly, theizens seemed to know the reason and someone suddenly came out to exin it. [Who said Whitecrane Hall was closed? When those people caused us trouble, our boss shut it down urgently and gave employees one month off with paid leave!] [Exactly! We won¡¯t go back to work after Christmas.

Their followers waited for a long time but did not hear that Whitecrane Hall had reopened. Meanwhile, Keh came back from closed training. When Keh got home, he hurriedly held Cassandra in his arms. ¡°Cassie, I miss you so much!¡± He was busy with closed training every day. At least, he could do FaceTime with Cassandra. As a commander, he shouldn¡¯t seek any personal privileges. Therefore, he only made video calls with Cassie asionally at night. In the past two months, they seldom met. ¡°Keh, I miss you, too,¡± Cassandra said in Keh¡¯s arms. Keh gently let go of Cassandra and their eyes met the next second. Suddenly, Keh lowered his head and pressed his lips against Cassandra¡¯s. He started to kiss her gently and then deepened the kiss. They kissed intensely as if nothing else existed. The butler and Susan blushed and turned to leave as they saw the scene. Cassandra and Keh loved each other so much. They wondered when they would have a baby. About ten minutester, Cassandra was short of breath. Keh didn¡¯t let her go until her hands pushed at his chest. ¡°Why can¡¯t you learn to catch your breath when kissing?¡± he teased. A glimmer of amusement showed in his eyes. Cassandra blushed instantly. How dare he tease him after taking advantage of her! Cassandra buried her face against his chest silently. Keh felt his entire chest warm as if he weren¡¯t afraid of the cold outside. ¡°Next time, I must teach you how to catch your breath. Otherwise, we won¡¯t kiss for long,¡± he continued. Cassandra didn¡¯t look up but said sullenly, ¡°You¡¯re such a rascal.¡± < Chaper 420 ¡°I only teach you how to kiss,¡± Keh said. She was his future wife. So, what if he acted like a rascal? If Cassandra had not been younger than the marriage age, he would have married her already. At that time, they would belong to each other for the rest of their lives. The AC temperature in Pinchart Mansion was high. After they hugged for a while, Cassandra felt a little hot.

When he arrived home and saw the living room lit up and Cassandra sitting on the sofa, the house was starting to feel like a home. No matter howte he came home, lights were always on in Pinehart Mansion or neighboring vis. However, he felt different this time. The moment he saw Cassandra at home, he felt warmth in his heart. Probably he had never felt it before, so he looked forward to starting a family. ¡°Okay, you too.

During this period, they could spend more time together.¡± She could imagine that this year¡¯s Christmas would be more festive than previous ones. Cassandra didn¡¯t know whether to cry orugh while reading the list. There were tons of things that needed to be bought, but she felt warm in her heart. Keh wondered who texted her.

He would apany Cassandra to do whatever she wanted! Cassandra and Keh went straight to arge shopping mall. Cassandra deliberately chose a shopping mall, which was not owned by Zelinski Group.

If he walked out of the mall with so many snacks, he was sure it would be a trending topic online in less than five minutes. Cassandra thought Keh had a point. ¡°Let¡¯s buy some first,¡± she said. She also felt that her idea was a little unrealistic. After all, who would buy so many snacks? The owner of the snack store previously thought he had a big client. In the end, they just bought a little. He wondered why wealthy people were so stingy. Seeing that there was a Thousand Dreams store in this mall, Cassandra said to Keh on a whim, ¡°Let¡¯s go buy clothes.¡± Anyway, it was her store. She didn¡¯t need to pay. Moreover, she could quickly find out which outfits were best suited for Keh, which was a big advantage. ¡°Sure,¡± Keh replied with a smile. He hadn¡¯t worn any clothes bought by Cassandra yet.

He was worried that ine was unacquainted with the store, so he kept introducing the store to them after they entered the store. This was a wonderful opportunity for him to make a good showing in front of his boss and he absolutely couldn¡¯t miss it. ¡°Well, go ahead with your work. I¡¯ll look around by myself,¡± Cassandra said. ¡°Everyone in the store has their own duties. I¡¯m mainly responsible for supervision. Please allow me to serve you. At least, you¡¯ll need someone to help you fetch clothes for a specific size,¡± the store manager replied. Cassandra didn¡¯t say anything more. Since he was willing to help, it would be okay with them. However, the manager was overthinking. Keh had such a standard figure. Howe he needed to try different sizes?

Cassandra tilted her head with great interest and said, ¡°Is this the benefit of being a kept woman?¡± Keh smiled with tenderness in his eyes. ¡°You can think in that way. It¡¯s natural for a man to keep his girlfriend. After all, we will get married in the future.¡± Cassandra blushed and felt a little embarrassed. Keh looked at Cassandra and felt that she was so cute.

Cassandra lowered her head awkwardly. She did nothing but buy him clothes. However, Keh was over the moon. If Keh could hear the voice in Cassandra¡¯s heart, he would probably shout out loud. Yes! He was beyond overjoyed. ¡°I¡¯m going to have dinner with Eddie and Kayden tonight. We usually have a meet- up before Christmas. Would you like to join us?¡± Keh asked.

At about 5:00 p.m., William finished ironing Keh¡¯s new clothes. Keh chose his favorite one to change into. He liked every set, but both Cassandra and her fancied this one the best.

They were unlike his typical outfit, with more details. Eddie had never seen him wear that tie before. Only then did Kayden notice that.

He thought, ¡®Look, my girlfriend is so excellent. You don¡¯t have women buy clothes. for you!¡® Eddie and Kayden looked at each other speechlessly! Lydia also bought clothes for Kayden. There was no reason to feel envious. But Eddie was still single. ¡°Have you ordered food yet? It¡¯s my treat today,¡± Keh said, looking overjoyed. Hearing this, Eddie was excited. Among the three of them, he was the poorest! He and his father¡¯s sry was barely sufficient to provide a better living for their family. After he married, his wife paid for the majority of his expenses. Therefore, Keh and Kayden usually paid the bill when they went out for a meal. They were richer than him. Despite receiving a small dividend from the Zelinski Group each year, he had already given it to his wife. Therefore, he was still penniless. Eddie didn¡¯t even look at the menu and called the waiter over. ¡°Well, I¡¯m ready to order food.¡± ¡°Sir, may I take your order now?¡± the waiter asked politely. After all, they were important guests. The waiter didn¡¯t dare to disrespect them. ¡°I¡¯d like to order All Joy Feast,¡± Eddie said. He had been wanting to try it for a long time.

And he would take good care of even a twig sent by Cassandra, not to mention that Cassandra gave him fake paintings. ¡°Miss White, they are both distinguished guests of the Yates Group. You¡¯re so arrogant. Don¡¯t you take the Yates Group seriously?¡± Kayden warned Evelyn again, and Evelyn¡¯s heart sank. She thought, ¡®Where did this bitche from? ¡®How could she ask Kayden to speak for her?! ¡®One Lydia is enough, and there¡¯s another woman here. Isn¡¯t that too much?¡± ¡°Mr. Yates, can¡¯t you see that they are embarrassing me? They took out a fake. painting and tried to make it look like the real one. This is too much!¡± said Evelyn. Evelyn was dissatisfied with Kayden¡¯s protection of this girl! She thought they were all dressed up but didn¡¯t do the right thing! SEND GIFT Chapter 427 Chapter 427 Cassandra turned to look at Evelyn, wondering if she was a little hostile. She thought, ¡®Shouldn¡¯t she apologize for embarrassing herself with the fake painting? ¡®Besides, who spread the rumor that I¡¯m an immortal in my fifties?¡± She didn¡¯t think it mattered before. Anyway, nobody said it in front of her, but it sounded too awkward when she heard it in person! ¡°Miss White, your painting is indeed a fake. Although it looks like a copy, not everyone can restore the works of Gale.¡± Cassandra¡¯s tone was gentle and not aggressive, as if she were discussing with her. However, Evelyn didn¡¯t appreciate it at all! ho do you think you are? You don¡¯t call Gale a master. How can you say that?¡± Evelyn felt that she just disrespected Mr. Gale Maguire. She thought, ¡®How many people in this world have seen the real Mr. Gale Maguire? ¡®Who else but the curator of his work! ¡®I¡¯m one of the few people who have seen Mr. Gale Maguire before, and I could brag for my whole life instead of listening to a little girl standing here and calling. his name directly!¡± Cassandra was speechless. She thought, ¡®It¡¯s normal that I can call myself Gale. Do I have to call myself Master? ¡®That¡¯s really bragging!¡± ¡°Miss White, I have the phone number of Vanessa Smith, Mr. Gale Maguire¡¯s work curator. Do you want it? You can call her and ask.¡± Cassandra advised. Whoever¡¯s words may not work well, but Vanessa¡¯s words must. She was the authority. ¡°Humph, do you think you are the only one who¡¯s got her number? I also have Vanessa¡¯s WhatsApp ount. I will contact her right away.¡± Evelyn was a little unconvinced. She had never been so wronged! She handed the painting to her father and called Vanessa. But she was hung up, feeling a little embarrassed. ¦Ò MaM GBG BGI Chapter 427 She called her again, but she still hung up! 21% 14:42 She looked a little embarrassed and said, ¡°Miss Smith must be busy, so she has no time to answer my video call.¡± Lydia said sarcastically, ¡°I¡¯m afraid she¡¯s not. She just doesn¡¯t want to your calls at all!¡± answer Lydia did tell the truth! Evelyn looked embarrassed and said, ¡°Don¡¯t you have her phone number? Call me if you dare!¡± Cassandra replied coldly, ¡°Okay. I¡¯ll do it.¡± Evelyn rolled her eyes and immediately said, ¡°Why don¡¯t we connect the video. directly? You can project it on the screen. Let us have a look.¡± She wanted to see her jokes, but she wouldn¡¯t allow that to happen! She¡¯d embarrass them even more! Lydia was furious. She thought, ¡®If Vanessa didn¡¯t answer the video, Ms. Yates. would be punished in public! ¡®Evelyn has gone too far!¡± ¡°Okay,¡± said Cassandra. Cassandra operated on her phone and directly opened the LED screen behind it. It was a chat box between Vanessa and her. Cassandra dialed the video call, but no one answered it after a few seconds. Just when Evelyn wanted to see a joke, Vanessa picked up the video! The woman on the opposite side eximed excitedly, ¡°Baby! You finally called me!¡± Keh was speechless. He thought, ¡®Why is there another person calling Cassie baby? ¡®A male rival in love is negligible! ¡®But why is there a female rival in love? The two at school have behaved. Chapter 427 MM BBG BG themselves. Lydia has the least sense of boundaries. She always wants to hug Cassie.

Vanessa seemed to realize that something was wrong, so she said, ¡°Why are there so many people in your ce?¡± ¡°Yeah, I¡¯m at a party.¡± In order to prevent Vanessa from saying anything surprising, she went straight to the point. She turned her camera on Evelyn and asked, ¡°Do you know Miss White?¡± Vanessa looked at her for a long time and shook her head. ¡°I don¡¯t know her.¡± She paused and said, ¡°However, before you sent me a video, someone named Evelyn called me. I hung up twice, which was really annoying. I didn¡¯t know how she got my number. After repeatedly confirming that I didn¡¯t know her but she kept calling, I almost hung up your video by mistake just now¡­¡± Cassandra was a little speechless. Vanessa was still so lively, but she seemed to be three years older than her. But Lydia liked her. She was so lively and cute! She liked people like this! ¡°Well, I just want to ask. Do you know that Miss White bought Gale¡¯s painting from you?¡± Cassandra asked. Vanessa said as if she had heard a joke, ¡°What the hell is this? I haven¡¯t sold any of your paintings since you retired. They are all unique works. Without your permission, who should I sell them to?¡± People around felt something was not right. ¡°Just now, Miss White said that Mr. Gale Maguire is an immortal in his fifties and she paid him 60 million dors for Spring.¡± Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org. Chapter 427 F 21% 14:42 Vanessa was shocked. ¡°Spring?¡± Cassandra nodded. Vanessa immediately burst intoughter. ¡°Is it possible? Didn¡¯t you take Spring away? You said that you would give it to an elder. How could it be given to others?¡± Vanessaughed and said, ¡°Besides, Mr. Gale Maguire is just you, Cassandra! You are an 18¨Cyear¨Cold girl. When did you be an old man in your fifties? Ouch, I¡¯mughing too hard and it makes my stomach hurt!¡± Cassandra said to her, ¡°It¡¯s enough and you¡¯reughing too much.¡± ¡°What did I hear? Ms. Smith said Cassandra is Mr. Gale Maguire?¡± ¡°Can¡¯t it be true? Then Cassandra is such a genius!¡± ¡°It¡¯s a little unbelievable. But Cassandra¡¯s painting is indeed more like an authentic one than Ms. White¡¯s.¡± ¡°That¡¯s something I¡¯ve never seen. Is she the legendary master who¡¯s hiding herself?¡± ¡°I also want to ask; this is too awesome!¡± ¡°But if it¡¯s Cassandra that such things happened to, there is nothing surprising!¡± Keh looked at the stage with a surprised smile and thenughed. There was pride in his eyes! ¡°You¡­ Ms. Yates, are you Mr. Gale Maguire?¡± Lydia was stunned and she thought, ¡®What the hell is going on?¡± She thought that Ms. Yates just owned the painting, but now she knew that she was the one who created it! Evelyn¡¯s face suddenly turned pale. What Vanessa said must be believed. Everyone. knew that she was the curator of Mr. Gale Maguire¡¯s works and the only one who could get to know Mr. Gale Maguire at any time, so her words¡­ The more she thought about it, the paler her face was. How could it be possible? Mr. Gale Maguire was not a girl, but an 18¨Cyear¨Cold girl! ×Ô Chapter 497 H FR Chapter 428 Chapter 428 Lydia widened her eyes and looked at Cassandra in disbelief. Maximilian also stared at Cassandra as if he was looking at a monster. Kayden was even more shocked. Since he knew about Cassandra¡¯s many identities, although he had been used to it, he was still very surprised! He just wanted to know if there was anything else Cassandra couldn¡¯t do! Comparisons were odious. People like them could be called the favored son of God, but they couldn¡¯t find any. adjectives to describe Cassandra. Evelyn¡¯s face was very gloomy. She couldn¡¯t believe it. ¡°Impossible! Absolutely impossible! You must be lying to me! How could the painting I spent 60 million. dors on be fake?!¡± ¡°And you!¡± Evelyn pointed at Vanessa in the video and said. ¡°You just said you are Mr. Gale Maguire¡¯s curator of works, right? I now suspect that you are a fake!¡± Evelyn had been mad. She couldn¡¯t ept it at all! Vanessa suddenly felt that Evelyn looked familiar. ¡°Oh¡­ I remember. Her name ist Evelyn White, right? She¡¯s the daughter of the White Group.¡± Vanessa said to Cassandra. ¡°She harassed me for a long time and wanted your Spring, but I didn¡¯t sell it. It had always been here. Didn¡¯t you just ask me for it the day before yesterday?!¡± Vanessa¡¯s words irritated Evelynpletely. She contacted Vanessa to buy a painting, but she finally found Mr. Gale Maguire himself, which was a surprise for her. Evelyn thought, ¡®What does she mean? Is she saying that the painting I bought is fake? ¡®How could that be possible?¡® ¡°Okay, I got it. I¡¯ve already given this painting away,¡± Cassandra said in a cold voice. and she thought, ¡°This girl always has too many words to say!¡® Vanessa suddenly noticed something and said, ¡°Oh, I think I saw the president of ac & MMBB BB MBBBBB Chapter 128 21% 14:42 the Art Association. Let him tell you if it¡¯s true or not. The more Vanessa thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong. She said, ¡°No, you have a golden¨Cedged signature. Just sh an ultraviolet light on the painting.¡± Cassandra was speechless. She thought, ¡°Thank you so much for reminding me!¡± ¡°OK! I see!¡± said she. ¡°Yes, I remember. Every painting of Mr. Gale Maguire has a golden¨Cedged signature, which is easy to recognize. Oh, you can see if there is a signature!¡± ¡°Yeah, I remember there was a private collection exhibition before. Someone showed it. Just have a look.¡± ¡°But I guess Cassandra¡¯s is the real one. After all, Ms. Smith has proved that she is Mr. Gale Maguire. Even if this painting is sold, she can draw another which looks exactly the same!¡± ¡°It¡¯s easy for you to say that. Why do you think Mr. Gale Maguire¡¯s painting is so expensive? It¡¯s because the master can¡¯t paint a second one exactly the same!¡± ¡°Really! I feel the same as me!¡± Evelyn was even more flustered. She thought, ¡®What if¡­¡± Lydia¡¯s eyes lit up and she took out a small shlight from her bag. It was ultraviolet light, but Cassandra had hung up the video call with Vanessa directly. Lydia excitedly turned on the small shlight and swept around the painting. Cassandra couldn¡¯t help reminding, ¡°Lydia, if I remember correctly, the signature should be in the upper left corner.¡± Because when she was creating this painting, the bottom was too full to add, so it was added on top. Lydia shed the light on the top and said in surprise, ¡°It¡¯s true!¡± There was a little golden¨Cedged signature, Gale Yates. R¨ºAdt??St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only She thought, ¡°Tsk. What a p in the face!¡± Evelyn pushed Lydia away, snatched the small shlight from her hand, and Chapter 428 H 21% 14:42 shed light on her painting. But there was nothing. She thought, ¡®How could it be possible?¡± ¡°Miss White, your painting is indeed a fake. You don¡¯t have to look at it anymore.¡± A strong male voice sounded from the audience. It was Harold Ford, the president of the Art Association. He walked slowly forward and said in a deep voice, ¡°I know who imitated this painting. I can call him.¡± Evelyn¡¯s face was extremely gloomy, and even Arthur beside her didn¡¯t look good. ¡°Mr. Ford, I¡­¡± said him. Harold directly dialed the number of that man. Someone picked up the phone and said, ¡°Mr. Ford, why are you calling me again?¡± Evelyn¡¯s face was pale. This was the voice of the master she heard. She thought, ¡®Why is he so ttering now, not cold or immortal at all?¡® ¡°Harry, did you sell a painting named Spring of Mr. Gale Maguire some time ago?¡± Harold¡¯s voice reverberated throughout the party hall. ¡°Yeah, how do you know? That girl is so silly. I¡¯ve asked her to think about it carefully, but she still flirted with me and insisted on buying my painting. Your know, my imitation of Mr. Gale Maguire¡¯s painting is so simr to the real one. She probably thought it was real at a nce. ¡°60 million dors! Why would I refuse her? Therefore, I made it a deal. Now that I am abroad, you can¡¯t catch me¡­¡± Obviously, the man was very proud andcent! Evelyn looked like a fool now. She didn¡¯t expect that it was just a fake painting worth 20,000 dors, and she spent 60 million dors on it. How embarrassing! Harold nced at Cassandra and then said to Harry, ¡°But Mr. Gale Maguire wants. to hold you ountable. Do you think you can run away?¡± Hearing this, Harry became anxious. His tone revealed his nervousness. ¡°No, Mr. Ford, I didn¡¯t do it on purpose. That woman insisted on it!

Lydia reminded her, ¡°Miss White, you lost. Your painting is fake. ording to the bet, you are going to tear it up.¡± Evelyn looked at Lydia fiercely and turned to Cassandra. She said viciously, ¡°Who are you? Are you trying to fawn on Maximilian with this expensive painting? But I¡¯m the one who have loved Kayden for many years. You don¡¯t deserve to stand by his side. What you did was in vain!¡± After saying that, she wanted to tear up Cassandra¡¯s painting, but Cassandra moved at, she wanted to tear up faster than her. She picked away the painting and looked at her coldly. ¡°If you have persecutory paranoia, you should go for treatment instead of showing off your intelligence here.¡± Cassandra thought, ¡®Me? ¡®Like Kayden? 1 ¡®Fawning on Maximilian? ¡®How could Evelyn say that? ¡®After all, she¡¯s from a rich family. She never thinks before she spokes!¡® ¡°Miss White, that¡¯s enough. You have interrupted the party repeatedly. What else. do you want to do now?¡± Kayden roared and wondered why she had no sense at all. J & M MGGGGG Chapter 428 SEND GIFT 0 Chapter 429 ¡°Fawn on?¡± Kayden snorted. ¡°If possible, I want to fawn on Cassandra. I just hope she can regard me as her brother.¡± ¡°Ms. White, you can¡¯t be so narrow-minded. It is disrespectful to me and Cassie.¡± Kayden directly ordered her to leave. ¡°Now, at this moment, take your painting and leave here as soon as possible. From now on, the White family won¡¯t have to attend the parties of the Yates family!¡± Arthur¡¯s expression suddenly changed, and he hurriedly stepped forward to apologize. Today they wanted to use gifts to win the favor of Maximilian so that their daughter could have a closer rtionship with Kayden. He thought, ¡®What¡¯s going on now? And, what Brother? Is Kayden the brother of Cassandra? We are out of luck! She is also a child of the Yates family. But Evelyn offended herpletely.'' ¡°Sorry, I¡¯m sorry. It was my daughter who offended Ms. Yates. She didn¡¯t know that Ms. Yates is a child of the Yates family.¡± Arthur smiled and apologized, ¡°Maximilian, it was my daughter¡¯s fault. For the sake of her kindness, please forgive her this time.¡± Hearing his words, Maximilian was really happy and originally wanted to let it go, but he felt it inappropriate and was afraid that Cassandra would be unhappy. Cassandra¡¯s face was cold and her tone was a little unpleasant. ¡°I am not the child of the Yates family. My surname is Yates, but it has nothing to do with the Yates family. Don¡¯t get it wrong, Mr. White. I¡¯m the only one who can forgive Ms. White after she said those words to me!¡± She didn¡¯t want to add a bunch of family members just because Kayden saved her. That feeling was too weird. That kind of feeling was always mixed with guilt. When they were ufortable, she would also feel sad. Her words were a little unpleasant and humiliated Maximilian, but she still had to make it clear. Otherwise, everyone would associate her with the Yates family. She didn¡¯t like that feeling very much. Maximilian lowered his eyes and felt sad. It seemed that it would take a long time for Cassandra to recognize them. Kayden was also a little disappointed, but as long as Cassandra was happy, he would ept it. ¡°It seems that you can¡¯t understand what I said either. It¡¯s okay, you can go out now.¡± Kayden continued, ¡°From now on, anyone who cooperates with the White Group will be against the Yates Group!¡± ¡°It¡¯s also against the Zelinski Group!¡± said Keh. ¡°And Modern Beacon Synergy!¡± added another man. Lydia noticed that Keh spoke, and there was another maning out of nowhere. She hurriedly followed, ¡°Then I have no right. But I remember that the White family also sells aromatherapy candles and perfume. So¡­ we don¡¯t need to do this business in the future. The Magnolia Studio will not cooperate with the White Group anymore!¡± Arthur¡¯s face suddenly changed. He thought, ¡°Who on earth did my daughter offend tonight?¡± ¡°Maximilian¡­¡± he said. Kayden shouted harshly, ¡°Butler, see them out!¡± Lydia stopped him and said, ¡°Wait! This fake painting hasn¡¯t been torn up yet!¡± Kayden was surprised. He thought, ¡®Why are you still thinking about the bet?¡¯ Evelyn had lost her image and her 60 million dors. She even offended so many people! Now that Lydia asked her to tear up the painting, she couldn¡¯t wait to tear her apart! ¡°This is a bet. Miss White, do you want to renege on your debt? If so, just tell me directly and I won¡¯t embarrass you.¡± Lydia looked considerate. She had said everything! ¡°You¡­¡± Evelyn started to say. Evelyn suddenly looked at Cassandra and said, ¡°This painting was copied from you. Don¡¯t you have any responsibility? Why are you embarrassing me here? I am also a victim!¡± Cassandra frowned as if she hadn¡¯t expected her to react like this, ¡°Miss White, it was you who made a bet with Lydia. It has nothing to do with me. I will hold that person ountable for selling fake paintings of me, but I have nothing to do with you buying it. Vanessa refused you. It was you who didn¡¯t give up and insisted on buying it. Harry also said on the phone that he had persuaded you. But you are still making trouble here, which is too much!¡± ¡°Yeah, I suddenly feel that Miss White who was gorgeous just now is not glorious at all.¡± ¡°The way she spoke is so nasty. I can¡¯t stand it any longer!¡± ¡°Hurry up and tear up the painting. I can still respect you!¡± ¡°I¡¯m speechless. The party tonight is all about Miss White!¡± ¡°She bought the wrong painting herself. What does it have to do with the master?¡± Finally, Evelyn tore up the painting and left the party under everyone¡¯s stimtion. Cassandra handed the painting directly to Maximilian and said, ¡°Happy birthday!¡± Then she left. When she went downstairs, she said to Keh directly, ¡°Let¡¯s go back. I don¡¯t want to stay here.¡± ¡°Okay.¡± Keh seemed to understand Cassandra¡¯s behavior, so he left without saying goodbye. The White family ruined her mood. At first, she didn¡¯t want to make a big deal out of it, but Lydia couldn¡¯t stand it. Kayden was their brother, and being pestered by such a scheming woman might be bad luck. Therefore, Lydia was helping Kayden as well as them. However, Evelyn¡¯s words and Arthur¡¯s words made Cassandra feel ufortable. So she just wanted to leave. Kayden saw Keh leaving, so he didn¡¯t go after them. He knew that it was useless to catch up with them now!N?velDrama.Org copyrighted ? content. After getting into the car, Keh winked at Yannick and then Yannick got out of the car silently. He took out his phone and called his good friend, Jeremiah. It seemed that he had something important to do before Jeremiah came to pick him up! He thought, ¡®Why would the White family have to offend Cassandra? Don¡¯t they know who is behind her? ¡®How dare they do this! They are just crazy!¡¯ He could only say that the White family woulde to an end tonight. Yannick quickly contacted people and bought all the shares of the White Group. And they also threatened them to cancel the cooperation. By the time Jeremiah arrived, his affairs had just been arranged. Jeremiah looked at Yannick angrily and said, ¡°What¡¯s wrong with you? You ruined my time with girls just to pick you up at the Yates residence? Didn¡¯t you send Keh and ine here? What, they abandoned you?¡± Yannick was speechless. He thought, ¡®Dude, really? We¡¯re still good buddies if we don¡¯t talk. What you said makes me feel so upset!¡± Yannick said, ¡°ine was bullied today. I¡¯m avenging her in the cold wind!¡± He thought, ¡®Seriously, Keh? Even if I have to arrange things for you, can¡¯t we at least talk about it after we get there? ¡®Is it reasonable to leave me outside the Yates residence? ¡®If I walked in now, I would beughed at by Eddie and Mr. Yates!¡± Chapter 430 Chapter 430 Chapter 430 Jeremiah didn¡¯t believe what he had heard. ¡°ine was bullied? Then what did Keh do?¡± Yannick was wordless. He thought, ¡®Then why do you think | got dumped and asked you to pick me up? ¡®| need to deal with the follow-up problem. Do you think | want to stay here? Keh couldn¡¯t see Cassandra being bullied. ¡®If it weren''t for the fact that men didn¡¯t fight with women, | felt that he would have hit her. ¡°Why do you think I¡¯d arranged my work here in cold winter when thepany is on holiday?¡± He thought, ¡®It¡¯s the Christmas! ¡®| don¡¯t have a family reunion, but the employees do! ¡®Nobody wants to work overtime!" Jeremiah suddenly understood and drove away. ¡°Fine. I''ll drive you home for the sake of your help for ine.¡± Yannick snorted coldly and thought, ¡®Huh? Man!* After Cassandra left, Maximilian didn¡¯t want to stay in the party hall any longer. He took cautiously the paintings left by Cassandra and left directly. He went back to the study and carefully opened the painting. It was painted by his granddaughter. No wonder he liked it very much since the first painting of Gale. Maybe this was a different fate. Soon, he called Denzel and Devin to the study as if he had made a decision. He looked at his two sons and said earnestly, ¡°Denzel, Devin, | want to transfer your brother¡¯s share to Cassandra, and then my share will also be transferred to her. Do you 1/15 A Chapter 430 agree?¡± 35) Denzel and Devin looked at each other. Denzel said seriously, ¡°Dad, you have the right to dispose of your and Brother¡¯s shares. It''s up to you. You don¡¯t have to ask me or Devin. We have no objection.¡± If Maximilian didn¡¯t mention it in a year or so, they would also bring it up. They couldn¡¯t give Cassandra anything, so they should try their best to give her all the money that belonged to her. They handed over their shares too quickly. The shares they held had been given to their two sons two years ago, so they couldn¡¯t make decisions for them. As for what they thought, it was up to them. Now their brother was the prince consort. He probably didn¡¯t take Yates Group¡¯s shares seriously, so his shares could be given to Cassandra as some pocket money. ¡°| also want to ask for your opinions. Cassandra was hurt too much by Darren¡¯s family, Benjamin¡¯s family and us. She¡¯s had a hard time. The daughter of the Yates Group shouldn¡¯t end like this...¡± If they couldn¡¯t give her the best in the world, they needed to make up for her in other ways. ¡°Dad, we owe Cassandra. We''ll make up for her in the future. She has a soft heart and won''t really stop talking with us. Look, today is your birthday, so she came here and gave you such an expensive painting. This is what you like most,¡± Devinforted him. He was worried that if Maximilian continued to think like this, he would feel ufortable. Maximilian looked at the painting on the table as if he had been cured. She had suffered a lot since childhood, but why did she draw paintings full of vitality? She even took the name Spring which was so vigorous and upward. She must be an optimistic child if she hadn¡¯t been hurt too much by her family. 2/5 A Chapter 430 limaN?velDrama.Org copyrighted ? content. 35) Cassandra was not in a good mood when she got home. Keh brought a ss of fresh orange juice from the kitchen and sat next to her. ¡°Cassie, have some juice.¡± He patted Cassandra on the head, trying to rx her. Cassandra was indeed in a bad mood. She said sullenly, ¡°Keh, do you think I¡¯m a little cruel?¡± Keh pretended not to know and asked, ¡°What?¡± Cassandra was a little embarrassed and didn¡¯t even know how to say it. After two minutes, she said faintly, ¡°Do you think | am too insensitive to the Yates family? They didn¡¯t do anything.¡± Keh shook his head and said, ¡°I don¡¯t think so. The Yates Group has done nothing. But once | stepped into the Yates Family, | would think of what Darren had done to you, as well as the bastards of the Benjamin family. Such hatred cannot be eradicated. It can be seen easily. ¡°Although Benjamin wasn¡¯t from the Yates family, he was also a branch of it. In your previous life, you were hurt so badly by them. Now | feel that they didn¡¯t end up miserable enough. ¡°The Yates family can understand it. You don¡¯t have to embarrass yourself, okay? Maximilian cultivated a son like Darren himself, so he had to take responsibility for the cause and effect of his son. Don¡¯t overthink it. The Yates family treats you well because they want to treat you well. Don¡¯t be pressured.¡± After all, Maximilian was their father. If there were no feeble exnations, Cassandra might want to ept the Yates family at first, but something happenedter and she was put off. Later, her biological father kidnapped her most important family. Even Kayden and Keh hated him. Everyone on the dark web knew the rules.

But you found me again, didn¡¯t you? We grew, we got stronger, and luckily, this time around, we didn¡¯t miss each other.¡± The tragedy from their past lives didn¡¯t get a sequel, which was a huge win. For her, that meant there was nothing left to hate. Keh nodded, but he still couldn¡¯t be as generous as Cassandra. That was how the dinner was arranged. Two dayster, it should be the liveliest day in Pinehart Mansion. Everybody was there. John¡¯s family of four, Daniel, and the people invited by Cassandra were all here. Kayden was also here, feeling pretty stunned. He totally expected Cassandra to be mad, but... now, he let out a sigh of relief. The birthday party incident was now water under the bridge. ¡°Let''s all help out,¡± Kayden suggested, tired ofzing around at home with nothing to do. ¡°Nah, enjoy yourselves. Cassie and | get the dinner covered,¡± Keh said, genuinely cheerful. Cooking with Cassandra was his happiest time. ¡°We''ve got board games, cards and snacks-just chill and enjoy yourselves; leave everything to us today.¡± Homemade was the best way for them to do Christmas Eve dinner. In simpler times, Blossom used to make her handcrafted stuffing with all sorts of fillings, and it was the best she had ever tasted. Seeing this, Selena was extremely happy. ¡®Keh¡¯s girlfriend is really capable. They are a perfect match!" 2/5 A Go Daer without it!¡± chuckled Selena. ¡°Totally!¡± Sylvia jumped in. ¡°You handle the sides, we''ve got the stuffing. It¡¯s not Christmas Eve without it!¡± After saying that, he took off his thin coat and began to work. Susan sprang into action. ¡°I¡¯m on dough duty!¡± Selena said, ¡°Then I''ll take care of the stuffing mix.¡± ¡°Make extra stuffing; we¡¯ve got a full house and big appetites,¡± Sylvia said. He thought, ¡®These two kids probably hardly ever make stuffing for themselves, so why not take this chance and make a little extra?¡¯ ¡°Okay, | want all kinds of stuffing today!¡± Selena felt that it was too lively, and she liked the atmosphere. ¡®The two children¡¯s home finally has a sense of life.¡¯ Soon, there were three groups of people in Pinehart Mansion: board game yers, stuffing makers, and Keh with Cassandra, tackling the cooking. On Christmas Eve, all the dishes were prepped by Keh and Cassandra, who even handpicked the groceries, carefully pairing meats with sides. By nightfall, a grand Christmas Eve dinner was finally ready to go. Their exclusive dining room had a huge table, perfect for their group of just over 20. Keh and Cassandra also prepared nearly 30 dishes! Stepping into the dining room and seeing the feast, Omar blurted out, ¡°Cassandra, you traitor! Since when could you cook up such a feast?

He looked at his wife usingly and thought, ¡®What¡¯s wrong with that?* ¡°You''re cursing my boss for being down and out, huh? What''s next, hoping | go bankrupt?¡± Eddie was speechless.

Omar said, ¡°Young people should be like this. A good man is to treat his wife well and apologize to her.¡± Cassandra was speechless. She thought, ¡®You''ve been single for decades. How can you say that? Chapter 432 Chapter 432 Everyone ate happily that night. Selena and Sylvia¡¯s stuffing was a hit, with every scoop hiding a pecan¨Ca little nod to good fortune and theseason¡¯s bounty. Selena waved her hands cheerfully, ¡°I hope everyone stays safe and healthy next year. It¡¯s a simple wish, but I hope you all can make it happen.¡± ¡®Especially these kids, they¡¯re all in such high¨Crisk gigs, dealing with way more pressure than most! I just want them to be healthy. ¡®If I can have a grandson next year, it will be even better! Everyone epted the blessing happily. Den and Cyrus held the pecans, a bittersweet reminder of the Christmas they¡¯d missed since leaving Clusia. Now, in their first year back, they¡¯d received a blessing. The feeling was simply indescribable! They had left Clusia filled with resentment for a ce that had caused them so much pain and suffering. After that, they vowed revenge on those who hurt them. But just as they seeded, their adversaries perished, leaving them grappling with their feelings. Cassandra looked at Den and Cyrus and knew what they were thinking, but she didn¡¯t say anything. Post¨Cdinner, the young crew, fast friends by now, dove back into their board games. ¡°Oh, I think I just won. Pay up, folks!¡± Den said in a loud voice as if he hadn¡¯t been so happy for a long time. ¡°Haha, sorry, I¡¯ve got a flush here!¡± Kayden¡¯s words made Den¡¯s face go ck with shock. He thought, ¡®Damn it! He¡¯s carned it!¡® Cyrus smiled, ¡°It seems that I lost the hardest.¡± Both Den and Kayden got a flush. Cyrus thought the luck was not on his side. Eddie looked at them with a smile. That¡¯s what the peace of time was! By 11, they all headed home, agreeing it wasn¡¯t cool to be out past midnight. They¡¯d catchupafter Christmas.

The 12 o¡¯clock bell rang ¡°Merry Christmas, Cassie!¡± Keh said. ¡°Merry Christmas, Keh!¡± Cassandra responded. This was the most fulfilling day she had ever had! ¡°Let me take you to your room. I bet they¡¯ve been in there nning a surprise.¡± Keh said as he took Cassandra¡¯s hand and headed upstairs. All afternoon, folks were sneaking around, each taking turns slipping into Cassandra¡¯s room and then dartingout secondster. Cassandra was curious, ¡®when did all this happen? Could it be thatlet my guard down around something strange? When Cassandra entered her room, she noticed something odd her nightstand was plied with greeting cardisand several gift boxes. Cassandra looked at Keh in surprise and said, ¡°They did this?¡± ¡°Yeah.¡± Cassandra opened each card to find personal notes inside, and even Selena had prepared a Christmas card forher. ¡°Cassie, Merry Christmas! You¡¯ve really warmed Keh¡¯s heart. Wishing you both the best.¡± ¡°Boss Lady, Merry Christmas! This is our first one together, huh? No more leaving us, okay? We¡¯d miss you.¡± ¡°Miss, Merry Christmas! You¡¯ve got more smiles than before. Here¡¯s to an even happier you in the next life.¡± ¡°Cassie, for real, when can I catch a break? I want to find a wife too! All my cash is flowing to you; feeling the pinch here. So sad.¡± ¡°ine, Merry Christmas!¡± Everything seemed the same, yet it all felt different now. ¡°Cassie, Merry Christmas!¡± Keh also joined in, handing over a slim card, quite the contrast to the stuffed ones from everyone else!! ¡°Thank you.¡± She found a form for a service member¡¯s marriage, just needing her autograph. When she hit 20, they¡¯d be goodto get hitched. Cassandra looked at the application form and nced at Keh, and without hesitation, signed her name. ¡°You can¡¯t regret it if you sign your name.¡± Keh chuckled. ¡°Well, I don¡¯t regret it.¡± Cassandra¡¯s tone was firm. ¡°Cassie, I love you!¡± ¡°I love you too.¡± Keh¡¯s lips crashed against Cassandra¡¯s in a feverish kiss, hishands wandering restlessly. Caught in the whirlwind of their emotions, Cassandra closed her eyes, surrendering to the moment. But then Keh stopped, leaving the next move hanging in the air. Cassandra suddenly opened her eyes. Keh joked, ¡°When you get older, I won¡¯t let you go!¡± Cassandra was silent. She thought, ¡®I may not have been around the block, but I¡¯ve seen it from the window. If he can hold back like this, maybe he¡¯s got issues. Or is it just superhuman willpower?¡® Cassandra eyed Keh doubtfully. He squirmed under her stare and chuckled, ¡°Quit it, or I won¡¯t be able to hold back.¡± Cassandra moved her lips and said nothing. She thought, ¡®I don¡¯t ask you to hold back it. It is your fault. Keh got up from Cassandra and smiled, ¡°I have another present for you.¡± He took Cassandra downstairs, dressed her, and went outside. ¡°Let¡¯s start.¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t know who he was talking to. Bang! Gorgeous fireworks bloomed in mid¨Cair, illuminating the night! Cassandra¡¯s eyes instinctively followed the fireworks. Beautiful! About two minutester, with a loud sound, the fireworks rushed up and bloomed. It was Cassandra¡¯s face. She was a little surprised.¡°Is¡­Is it me?¡± ¡°Yes,¡± Cassandra replied. Suddenly, another sound came. It was another face. Itwas Keh¡¯s. Their faces made from fireworks appeared in mid¨Cair and disappeared soon. Next, the fireworks bursting into the sky mirrored the way she and he locked eyes! This is amazing! ¡°Do you like it?¡± ¡°Yes!¡± Yannick looked at Keh and thought, ¡®Keh is more infatuated than Cassandra! ¡®Anyone out of the loop will think this is a gift Cassandra has prepared for him!¡® ¡°I¡¯m d you like it,¡± Keh replied. ¡®Itmeans it¡¯s not in vain. ¡®And Yannick and Ethan are useful.¡® ¡°Keh, bow your head.¡± Cassandra looked up at Keh. He lowered his head obediently, and Cassandra tiptoed and kissed Keh¡¯s lips. Chapter 433 Chapter 433 Twitter became lively instantly! [Oh my gosh!

The next day, uninvited guests came to Pinehart Mansion. Susan and William stopped them outside, but they refused to leave. Susan was so angry that she scolded them for being shameless! However, Arthur and Evelyn couldn¡¯t care less now. Those insults were little cases, and there was nothing worse than them now! It was just a word or two of insult, and they could take it. Cassandra had a good sleep. Before going to bedst night, she sent gifts to everyone in return. This feeling was quite good. It¡¯s just that no one epted it. Seeing Cassandraing down, William hurriedly greeted her and said, ¡°Ms. Yates, Merry Christmas. Cassandra smiled lightly and responded obediently, ¡°Merry Christmas.¡± William was all smiles, obviously thrilled. Cassandra had brought big changes to Keh, and this year¡¯s Christmas gifts were double the size! The happiness was off the charts. ¡°Where¡¯s Keh?¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t see Keh in the living room. ¡°He¡¯s preparing breakfast for you in the kitchen.¡± When William got up early in the morning, he was startled that Keh was already busy in the kitchen. Most importantly, he was happy, and the smile on his lips had never been suppressed. It was strange. ¡°Okay.¡± Cassandra nods. Only then did William report to Cassandra, ¡°Ms. Yates, someone outside wanted to see you and Mr. Zelinski. Susan and I drove them away. They didn¡¯t leave and stay at the door.¡± N?velDrama.Org copyrighted ? content. 2/5 A 12% Chapter 433 Cassandra frowned and thought, ¡®Who are they? ¡®If they won¡¯t leave, let them in. I am dying to know who they are. ¡°Let them in. I¡¯ll see them.¡± Cassandra ordered. After getting permission, William went out and asked Susan to let them in. Arthur and Evelyn were delighted that Keh was willing to see them. They thought, ¡®It is so great! Does it prove that we can be saved?¡± As a result, they came in only to find Cassandra sitting there. Evelyn¡¯s face froze and asked in a stiff tone, ¡°Where is Keh? Didn¡¯t he allow us toe in?¡± They wanted to see Keh, not Cassandra. The White family had been upiedtely. Despite their efforts, they had exhausted all options. Zelinski Group, Yates Group, and Modern Beacon Synergy all teamed up against the White family. Unfortunately, the White family¡¯s troubles had also affected Evelyn¡¯s grandparents. Bothpanies together had only held out for two days. The reason they hadn¡¯t shown up the day before was because Evelyn had heard that everyone had gathered at Pinehart Mansion, which gave the two of them a day of peace. But this couldn¡¯t go on forever. They came here, hoping to get Keh¡¯s forgiveness. Yesterday, they had discovered Cassandra wasplex, with multiple identities. Her ties with Modern Beacon Synergy exined its involvement. Although there was a lot of information, it was not very useful. As for her rtionship with Modern Beacon Synergy, no one told them. Arthur and Evelyn knew that these people were clear about it, but they didn¡¯t want to tell them because they were afraid of offending Cassandra. ¡°William said you didn¡¯t leave and had been cursing. That¡¯s why I let you in. What is wrong?¡± Cassandra looked up at Evelyn. But it made sense. It was Keh who was the master of Pinehart Mansion, and she 3/5 A Chapter 433 probably thought that Keh let them in at first sight. Evelyn¡¯s face turned pale, and Arthur was also embarrassed. He smiled awkwardly and said, ¡°The same, Ms. Yates. Merry Christmas.¡± He put the gift in front of Cassandra. She didn¡¯t even look at it, ¡°Mr. White, just tell me what you want. I don¡¯t like to beat around the bush.¡± Arthur pretended to be reserved and said, ¡°Ms. Yates, I hope you can persuade Mr. Zelinski to show mercy to the White family. These two days, the White family and the Long family had no longer been able to sustain. The Long family was his wife¡¯s mother¡¯s home. These days, his wife had gone home to ask her family for help, and they had helped her, but now the two families werepletely out of control. They had no choice but to beg one by one. At first, they had gone to the Yates family, but the Yates family had said that only if Cassandra forgave them, would they stop. They had witnessed Cassandra and Keh had left that day, so they hade to look for her. ¡°What does this have to do with Keh and me?¡± Cassandra asked. Arthur was speechless. Hearing this, Evelyn¡¯s anger red up. ¡°Cassandra, I just said something I shouldn¡¯t have said. Is that necessary to torture us? Do you feel superior?¡± She had had enough of being educated and abused by her parents these days. It was all Cassandra and Lydia¡¯s fault. However, she couldn¡¯t even deal with Magnolia Studio, which made her embarrassed! ¡°You¡¯re Mr. Gale Maguire, the great. I¡¯m just the victim here, duped out of 60 million dors! Isn¡¯t that misery enough? Just for dissing you a bit, you unleash Yates Group, Zelinski Group, and Modern Beacon Synergy on the White family. Why you gotta be so ruthless?¡± J M Chapter 434 Chapter 434 Arthur was so frightened that he panicked and thought, ¡®What the hell is she talking about?¡± He stepped forward and pulled Evelyn, but she was out of control. ¡°I didn¡¯t know you were Kayden¡¯s sister. But don¡¯t you think it is too much to let people deal with the Yates Group?¡± Cassandra frowned, rolled her eyes, and said coldly, ¡°Are you done?¡± Evelyn was stunned and didn¡¯t quite understand what she meant. ¡°Ms. Evelyn White, you hitting some memory snags? Get that checked. I don¡¯t know how you¡¯ve got the guts to pass all the mess onto me. Right from the start, your slip¨Cups had ticked off Kayden. He had been holding back, but you didn¡¯t realize it. Even shamelessness has its limits. ¡°The bet that night was made by you and Lydia, which seemed to have nothing to do with me. If it weren¡¯t for your strong purpose, we wouldn¡¯t be shing with you. ¡°Besides, shouldn¡¯t you apologize for your insulting words? Your father has been apologizing since he came in. Is it his fault? Just because you¡¯re his daughter, he has to help you address problems. You didn¡¯t do anything wrong? ¡°If I was just some regr person, would you still be gunning for me? Still, show up at my door with gifts? Kicking me out of Drieso would be kind, huh? But if everybody¡¯s sorry looked like yours, you might as well nominate me and Keh for Saints of the Year.¡± She thought, ¡®It is the first time that someonees to scold her at home for an apology. ¡®She seriously needs to work on her people skills.¡± Evelyn was speechless and even at a loss. Arthur hurriedly said, ¡°Yes, yes. Ms. Yates is right. It was my daughter¡¯s fault that day. Wee here to sincerely apologize to you today.

Whoever¡¯s involved, if you can get them to back off, I have no objections.¡± Evelyn¡¯s face fell. ¡°Cassandra, this is all you doing. You¡¯re well aware that Yates Group, Zelinski Group, and Modern Beacon Synergy started this fight with the White Group because of you. And now you¡¯re just gonna watch from the sidelines? How can you be so cruel? You want me to grovel at your feet?¡± Cassandra was speechless. ¡°Evelyn, listen to what you said. Is it reasonable? Is that your attitude? Then you can go now.¡± Cassandra said coldly. Evelyn was blinded by jealousy. She just had known that Cassandra was the daughter of Darren Yates, and she was Kayden¡¯s cousin. However, she couldn¡¯t bear to see Kayden treat Cassandra well. Especially on that day, he had said that if Cassandra could call him brother, then he would have done anything for her. ¡®Why couldn¡¯t he be her brother?¡¯ She had been in love with Kayden for so many years, but she couldn¡¯t evenpare to a sister! Moreover, for so many years, Kayden had never had any woman except Cassandra, which made her even more jealous! The moment she saw Cassandra, jealousy red up inside her. So that she forgot all about the purpose ofing here! ¡°Cassandra, you¡¯ve gone too far!¡± With scarlet eyes, Evelyn harshly used Cassandra. ¡°Yeah, I just went too far. I¡¯m not interested in people with persecutory paranoia, and I won¡¯t be so kind as to forgive them. Spoiled daughter of a rich family like you thinks the whole world should pamper you, and love you, right? Anything less and you just rant? Get real!¡± d M Chapter 434 Cassandra was also angry. On the first day of Christmas, she made the wrong decision to let them in and make herself unhappy! ¡®I¡¯m so speechless!¡® ¡°You¡­¡± ¡°Mr. White, showing up at Pinehart Mansion this early to hassle my Cassie? Don¡¯t you think that¡¯s a bit much?¡± Keh emerged from the kitchen and asked in a voice that was not kind. Arthur was shocked. He thought, ¡®So Keh is at home, but¡­. ¡®What is going on? Did he let them in to vent Cassandra¡¯s anger? ¡®Otherwise, why didn¡¯t he show up?¡® ¡°Mr. Zelinski¡­¡± Arthur and Evelyn immediately turned their heads. Arthur was trembling, while Evelyn¡¯s face went pale. After their long conversation, she assumed Keh wasn¡¯t present since he didn¡¯te out. That¡¯s why her tone was like that! Even with all her status, Cassandra was just a regr girl who had grown up in the countryside. Only Kayden cherished her; the Yates family might not even ept her. Honestly, people who thought like that were either off the grid or just skimmed the surface and decided they knew the whole story. Such a person¡­ ¡°You thought I was not here, so you dared to talk to Cassie like this!¡± He heard everything they said, and he just wanted to see how Cassandra would react.

You can go back,¡± Cassandra interrupted him directly. Arthur had been apologizing from beginning to end, but he didn¡¯t do anything wrong. Though she didn¡¯t want to throw shade at everyone involved, this kind of behavior was seriously a letdown. Evelyn had never realized her problem, and she was still arrogantly using her. Even if she wanted to get forgiveness, it would be toote. Cassandra was speechless. Keh looked at Cassandra with satisfaction. He liked this side of her. He turned to Arthur and said, ¡°If you don¡¯t leave now, you will immediately hear the news that the White Group has gone bankrupt.¡± Chapter 435 Chapter 435 Arthur and Evelyn left reluctantly.

Keh rubbed her head affectionately. ¡°Okay. As you like it. Let¡¯s have breakfast.¡± Cassandra nodded. She hadn¡¯t enjoyed the breakfast cooked by Keh for a long time. She missed it. Not long after Arthur and Evelyn walked out, Arthur received a phone call from his wife. ¡°The White family is¡­ over.¡± So was the Long family. After Arthur hung up, he pped Evelyn in the face. ¡°You¡¯re such a jinx! What makes you think you¡¯re so tough? How could you dare to mess with them?

She said in her heart, ¡®I didn¡¯t say I¡¯m omnipotent!¡® 11% 10:27 11% ¡°No. Jeremiah taught me before, but I just can¡¯t do it. Nor could Den and Cyrus teach me. So let it go.¡± Considering her previous poor experience, Cassandra thought she had better not learn it. ying golf may seem like simply hitting the ball and getting it into the hole, but without proper techniques and methods, even swinging the club could be a tough thing. Her movements had been nonstandard, and even looked a little ugly. She wasughed at by Jeremiah for a long time. If possible, she didn¡¯t want to learn golf. ¡°They just don¡¯t know how to teach. You should learn from me,¡± Keh said softly in a doting and gentle tone. However, Cassandra still bore psychological trauma and refused to learn. ¡°Alright. Lemme show you once. If you change your mind after that, I¡¯ll teach you.¡± Keh wasn¡¯t determined to teach Cassandra to y golf. He just wanted to fight for his welfare. So¡­ Chapter 435 ¡°Okay.¡± It was the first time that Cassandra had seen a sightseeing bus in her manor¡­ COM Chapter 436 Chapter 436 At this moment, some people wereing to the vi. They were Kayden, Jeremiah, Eddie, and Lydia. Den and Cyrus didn¡¯te because they flew to Spaunia early in the morning. The people who came there looked around but didn¡¯t see Keh and Cassandra. Kayden asked, ¡°William, where are Keh and Cassie?¡± It was an unbearably boring time for youngsters after the Christmas Eve dinner. Even Maximilian felt bored. That was why Kayden invited Eddie and Jeremiah to Pinehart Mansion. Inviting them to y board games was not a bad idea. After all, they could gather together instead of being alone. It happened that there were four men. Lydia and Cassandra would probably enjoy their time together, ignoring them at all. ¡°Mr. Yates, Mr. Zelinski went out for a walk with Ms. Yates, but I don¡¯t know where they¡¯re.¡± William really didn¡¯t know. It was hard to search for them in such a big manor. Kayden felt speechless. He said, ¡°Check the surveince videos. I called them, but no one answered.¡± Or maybe they were unwilling to answer the phone. Keh was spending time with Cassandra and didn¡¯t want to be disturbed at all. William nodded and went to check the surveince videos. About five minutester, he came out and told Kayden, ¡°They went to the golf course.¡± Kayden nodded. ¡°Okay. Ask someone to pick us up. We¡¯ll go there.¡± Kayden thought, ¡®ying golf isn¡¯t bad. It¡¯s all fun anyway.¡¯ William arranged for someone to pick them up. Chapter 430 Keh and Cassandra¨Carrived at the golf course not long before. Keh just began to y. Looking at the club, Cassandra felt a little frightened. She really couldn¡¯t y it. Many people said it was easy, but she didn¡¯t think so. Soon, a caddie put the ball on and a picker was in ce. Keh finally showed up, otherwise, they would have doubted their lives being idle. Afraid that one day Keh woulde, the workers there cleaned up the snow on the course. The lawn was green all year round, so once the snow was removed, it was green there. But how weird Keh and Cassandra were to y golf in cold winter¡­ Keh¡¯s movements looked very cool and standard. Even Cassandra, ayman, admitted it. Helplessly, she couldn¡¯t y it. Cassandra was surprised to see the picker motion to Keh that the ball went into the hole with one stroke. At this time, Kayden and the other three people arrived. R¨ºAdt??St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only ¡°Keh, why didn¡¯t you let us know the golf course was cleaned up? We¡¯ve been freaking out about what to do!¡± Kaydenined about Keh as soon as he got out of the bus. Every corner in Drieso was covered with snow in winter. It was hard to find an outdoor golf course. Unexpectedly, Keh had cleared his out. They must y golf there. ¡°Yeah, I haven¡¯t been around here in a while,¡± echoed Eddie. For soldiers, it was okay to wear T¨Cshirts outside in such cold weather, so they were not afraid of the cold. However, Lydia couldn¡¯t stand it. The staff brought many warm pastes to her and helped her paste them on her. She felt alive instantly. & M Chapter 436 ST Keh¡¯s face darkened. He thought, ¡®Why do they alle here? Can¡¯t they stay at home?¡® The disgust on his face was beyond words, but people all chose to ignore it. 10% 10:28 The caddie brought Kayden and Eddie their own clubs. Jeremiah, who didn¡¯t have one, said to Keh, ¡°Give me one of your clubs.¡± Keh motioned to the caddie, who then took some brand¨Cnew ones for Jeremiah to choose from. ¡°Go away to y. Don¡¯t stay with me.¡± Keh thought that they should go away with their clubs. He didn¡¯t want his happy time with Cassandra to be disturbed. ¡°Well, we haven¡¯t had apetition for a long time. How about having one?¡± Kayden suggested. Jeremiah and Eddie had no problem with it, but Keh¡¯s face became gloomy. ¡°Good. You guys y, and I¡¯ll watch with Lydia.¡± Cassandra supported Kayden¡¯s suggestion. She didn¡¯t want to learn, but she could watch them y. ¡°Cassie, why don¡¯t youe and y together?¡± Kayden took it for granted that Cassandra was good at everything, including ying golf. He wanted her to y together. Jeremiah was stunned and suddenly burst intoughter. Kayden was confused. ¡°What are youughing at?¡± ¡°ine doesn¡¯t know how to y golf. I couldn¡¯t teach her, along with Timothy and Cyrus. It¡¯s a big shame in her life.¡± Jeremiah couldn¡¯t stopughing at the thought of that. He added, ¡°She looks stupid with her swing!¡± Cassandra¡¯s face changed as Jeremiahughed at her mercilessly. She really wanted to make him dumb. His loudughter bothered her. J M Chapter 436 ST Kayden and Eddie were stunned. They wondered, ¡®Really? F 10% 18:28 Eddie looked at Cassandra and thought, ¡®She¡¯s good at hacking, traditional medicine, and design, but she can¡¯t y golf?¡± Kaydenughed brightly, ¡°Now she¡¯s like a normal human. Finally, there¡¯s something that Cassie can¡¯t do but we can. That¡¯s great.¡± He used to think that Cassandra could do everything, being inhuman with her rather advanced brain. He finally realized that Cassandra was also a mortal. There was still something she didn¡¯t know. He felt it good! Cassandra was speechless. At that moment, she didn¡¯t want to speak at all! She felt those people were so annoying. Lydia stepped forward and pulled Cassandra. ¡°You guys y. I¡¯ll chat with Ms. Yates!¡± Cassandra quickly abandoned Keh and stood beside Lydia. Cassandra nodded, agreeing to the good suggestion. Keh was speechless. He really wanted to beat the people with his club. How could they disturb his happy time with Cassandra? ¡°Okay.¡± Kayden waved his hand. He thought, ¡®Good friends should be like this. Cassie should have more such friends!¡± Lydia pulled Cassandra into the sightseeing bus. Although it was useless to keep her fortunately, she wouldn¡¯t feel the cold wind. warm, ¡°Lydia, do you have something to say?¡± Cassandra asked frankly because she felt Lydia ¨@¨@¨A Chapter 436. was a little strange. BEN 103 10:28 ¡°Yeah, I¡¯ve been feeling really weaktely. As soon as I lie down, I¡¯m out for hours. I even have to take naps in the afternoon. It¡¯s so weird. All the doctors I know are on vacation, so I can¡¯t find anyone familiar to check me out. Could you just take a look and see if there¡¯s anything major? If it¡¯s not serious, I¡¯ll just stay away from the hospital.¡± Lydia trusted traditional medicine practitioners, but she didn¡¯t dare to have a try because there had been no one she had been familiar. Now she knew that Cassandra was Faye, so she hoped Cassandra could check her out. If she was seriously ill, she would go for an examination and then ask Cassandra to help treat her. ¡°Okay, give me your hand.¡± Lydia reached out her hand obediently, feeling a little nervous. Two minutester, Cassandra who had frowned smiled. She said mysteriously, ¡°There¡¯s indeed a big problem!¡± ¡°What? Ms. Yates, don¡¯t scare me!¡± As soon as Lydia raised her voice, Eddie heard it. He hurriedly walked over and asked with concern, ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± Chapter 437 Chapter 437 Lydia was very worried. When the elderly in the military residentialpound were seriously ill, they had a lot of sleep. Unlike them, Lydia didn¡¯t feel pain in her body, but she couldn¡¯t help worrying. Lydia thought, ¡®Why does Ms. Yates smile so happily?¡± Eddie looked at Cassandra in confusion and wanted to know what was wrong with Lydia who felt scared! Cassandra just smiled, ¡°Yeah, it¡¯s a big problem, but not necessarily. It¡¯s rted to one¡¯s life.¡± Eddie was stunned. He wondered, ¡®Did Lydia kill someone? No!¡± Seeing Eddie¡¯s serious face, Jeremiah knew that Eddie was probably thinking about how to solve this problem. Jeremiah was a little bit disappointed and helpless with Eddie. e was i Jeremiah wondered, ¡®Didn¡¯t he understand what ine meant? making a rare joke to scare Eddie on Christmas!¡± Jeremiah went straight forward and patted Eddie. ¡°Hey, You wouldn¡¯t think that your wifemitted a murder and you¡¯re trying to figure out a way to help her cover it up, would you?¡± Hearing this, Lydia was full of confusion. Cassandra was speechless. So was Keh, who thought Jeremiah told the truth. Keh wondered, ¡®If there¡¯s one more minute of silence, all eyes will be fixed on him¡­¡± Eddie had a hard time getting his voice back. ¡°But¡­ didn¡¯t Cassie say¡­¡± Jeremiah didn¡¯t swear. He thought, ¡®It turns out that there¡¯s really such a stupid man! That¡¯s horrible!¡± M Chapter 437 10% 10:28 ine meant that Lydia is pregnant. Got it? Isn¡¯t it rted to one¡¯s life?¡± Jeremiah thought. that Eddie should be well¨Ceducated. Jeremiah wondered, ¡®How could he not know this? Even a kid knows this kind of joke. Is Eddie a fool?¡® Eddie was stunned, and then he suddenly widened his eyes and straightened his back. ¡°What did you say?¡± He turned to Cassandra and then looked at Lydia. ¡°Is it true?¡± ¡°Yeah,¡± Cassandra chuckled. ¡°Congrattions! You¡¯ve received the best Christmas gift.¡± In other words, Selena¡¯s Christmas resolution seemed to havee true. She said she wanted a grandchild. Now her grandchild wasing! Lydia felt it unbelievable. She wondered, ¡®Is that so?¡± Originally, she had been taking contraceptive measures. She thought she could have a baby when Eddie was promoted again in a few years, and by then he could work in Drieso, which was close to their home. If so, he could participate in their baby¡¯s growing up. Lydia and Eddie had reached a consensus on this idea, so every time they made love, she used contraceptives. However, in thest two times, she was in her safe period and the condoms were run out, so she didn¡¯t make double insurance. Unexpectedly, she was pregnant. ¡°Really? Or¡­¡± Eddie still didn¡¯t believe it. It came so suddenly, and he didn¡¯t seem ready. ¡°Of course, it¡¯s true. I won¡¯t joke about this. If you don¡¯t believe me, go to the hospital for a checkup.¡± Cassandra was not annoyed. Apparently, both Eddie and Lydia were shocked by the appearance of their baby and therefore couldn¡¯t ept it so easily. Cassandra was sure that Lydia, being such a good girl, would be very nice to her baby. ¡°No, it¡¯s not that. I just can¡¯t believe it. We¡­¡± Chapter 437 Eddie was so excited that his words were not organized well. When he was nervous, he would hold something tightly, and when he walked towards his wife, he was at a loss. ¡°Honey¡­¡± Eddie found that he was still holding a club in his hand. He was worried that it would hurt Lydia, so he hurriedly threw it out. ¡°Let¡¯s go home!¡± Hepletely lost his interest in golf. ¡°Well, Eddie, should we keep this baby?¡± Lydia asked a very realistic question. Eddie was a soldier, also a special arm. He didn¡¯t stay in Drieso all year round. He would onlye back asionally. He stayed in Drieso for a long time this year because he took advantage of doing maneuvers with Falcon Special Operations Force. After the vacation, he had to go back to the army. By then, Lydia would be alone. Even if their baby could be apanied by his grandparents, he couldn¡¯t feel his father¡¯s love. Such a time wouldst for so many years¡­ This meant that Eddie couldn¡¯t get involved in the first few years of his child¡¯s life. It was a lifetime regret for both of them! Did Lydia want to have the baby? Of course she did. Several of her colleagues had given birth to cute children. Lydia wanted one, too. She and Eddie loved each other. Wasn¡¯t it normal for them to have a baby? Eddie was stunned and silent for a moment when he suddenly thought of something. Kayden hurriedly said, ¡°Lydia, it¡¯s a good thing to have a baby. You must keep him. Keh and I are waiting to see him!¡± Lydia looked at the people around her and saw Eddie¡¯s embarrassment. She said, ¡°If you want a baby, I¡¯ll give birth to him. But being a first¨Ctime dad, you have to often fly between ces. I won¡¯t take care of him all by myself. If you don¡¯t spend enough time with him, I¡¯ll bring him to you. Whenever you¡¯re not on duty, you have to be with him!¡± Lydia wanted to have a child. Looking at other people¡¯s children, she was so softhearted. She made up her mind! She would give birth to the baby! 3/5 Chapter 437 She said those words just to give Eddie a sense of responsibility. She wouldn¡¯t take the baby to him at that time. She didn¡¯t want to trouble him. Jeremiah said, ¡°I think so. Keh and I will escort you then, and Cassie will apany you to get even with Eddie!¡± Phew¡­ Eddie was so scared just now. He had thought that Lydia didn¡¯t want to have a baby. It turned out that she was worried that Eddie who had been busy these years couldn¡¯t participate in the child¡¯s growth. This was right. He would work hard in the next few years. He had been a senior colonel and wanted to be promoted again, though it would be hard. He must make more outstanding achievements! ¡°Okay, I promise you that I¡¯lle back whenever I have time.¡± He would try his best to make time for his child. ¡°I¡¯ll get a helicopter arranged for you. Whenever you want toe back, it¡¯ll be ready to go, and can land right at Pinehart Mansion. It¡¯ll be more convenient for you.¡± Keh gave him avish gift. Eddie had a mission. Since he didn¡¯t want to be absent from his child¡¯s growth, Keh thought, he could help him solve the problem of distance. Eddie was surprised. He didn¡¯t expect that his good friend could do this for him. ¡°Thanks a lot!¡± He only needed this helicopter in the next few years and only for the need ofing to his baby. By then, he could simply report to his superiors. ¡°Let¡¯s go back. You can go to Whitecrane Hall for aprehensive examination, and I¡¯ll arrange doctors for you,¡± Cassandra advised. 4/5 A Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org. If they wanted to let the elderly know the good news, there must be something persuasive. Words only were not convincing. ¡°No, thanks. We believe in your medical skills,¡± Eddie said frankly. He was too shocked to ept the fact just now. He didn¡¯t mean to question Cassandra. ¡°I know. I mean, you can take a report out to make Mr. and Mrs. Frey happy or just take it as a souvenir.¡± Chapter 438 Chapter 438 Lydia thought Cassandra had a point, so she rushed to Cassandra and said excitedly, ¡°Ms. Yates, you¡¯re so nice!¡± Cassandra¡¯s neck was held tightly! It could show how excited Lydia was! Keh¡¯s face darkened. He thought, ¡®Cassie¡¯s my wife. You¡¯re pregnant. Can¡¯t you be reserved?¡® Lydia¡¯s action frightened Eddie. He hurriedly pulled Lydia off Cassandra and used her in a soft voice, ¡°You¡¯re pregnant. You can¡¯t be so violent. What if you hurt yourself or our baby?¡± It almost scared him to death! ¡°Sorry, I¡¯m not adjusting to my identity as a mom. I¡¯ll be careful.¡± Lydia didn¡¯t care much about it. Cassandra said, ¡°No worry. I won¡¯t let anything happen to Lydia.¡± She wouldn¡¯t allow anyone she cared about to encounter something bad, except for senility, diseases, and natural death. How good the friendship between Cassandra and Lydia was! Soon, Hugo arranged for two very authoritative doctors to work in Whitecrane Hall and only received the patient Lydia. The doctors didn¡¯te because of their low sries. In fact, they earned a lot of money, but Hugo paid too much overtime. On Christmas¡¯s Day, they only spent their time with their families at home. There were no entertainment activities. It was not bad to work overtime. It was just a gynecological examination, whichsted just a few hours. However, they 1/5 A 2/5 Chapter 438 could get 10,000 dors in overtime pay. They were attracted by it. Ordinary doctors couldn¡¯t earn 10,000 dors in less than half a day! It didn¡¯t take long before the examination waspleted. Several people sat in Whitecrane Hall and waited for the result. The report finally came out, on which there were words ¡°Pregnancy for four and a half weeks The doctors were also very happy. One hurriedly congratted Lydia. She had thought Lydia had a gynecological disease. Unexpectedly, it was a newborn¡­ Another doctor also happily created a file for Lydia and arranged the time of each pregnancy examination¡­ The doctor asked, ¡°Will you have an examination here or anywhere else? It¡¯s okay if you want to go to other top hospitals with this pregnancy test report for filing. They recognize it.¡± Whitecrane Hall was influential. ¡°Right here, and I¡¯ll give birth to my baby here too!¡± Lydia immediately made up her mind. Rather than let other hospitals make money, it was better to let Cassandra earn it! Lydia thought, ¡®Isn¡¯t it better to pay for my friend?¡® ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll create a profile for you.¡± The doctor nodded. Whitecrane Hall mainly served traditional medicine, but it also served modern medicine in an internationally famous private hospital. After all, it was backed by Faye! After Lydia got the stuff, she went to the window for a bottle of folic acid. Lydia seemed a little nervous when she was about to go home. ¡°What should I do? I¡¯m scared!¡± Everyone was speechless. 7 Chapter 438 ¡°What are you afraid of?¡± Jeremiah couldn¡¯t help but ask. ¡°You¡¯re a really interesting couple. One thought his wife killed someone, and the other began to feel scared after the examination!¡± They werete to catch on. Eddie suggested, ¡°Guys, why don¡¯t youe with us to the military residentialpound and announce it together?¡± Even if John saw the pregnancy test report, he might not believe it! Maybe he would think they were joking with him! It might be troublesome by then! Cassandra said nothing. So did Keh. Kayden said enthusiastically, ¡°Sure. Let¡¯s go!¡± He was anti¨Cmarriage but liked kids very much, especially those of other people! This child was Eddie¡¯s, then he would be his uncle from now on! For this, he had to go with Eddie! Kayden¡¯s positiveness made everyone begin to doubt something¡­. Keh and others went to the Frey residence in the military residentialpound. Selena was startled by this scene and looked at Lydia in surprise. ¡°Didn¡¯t you go to Cassie? Why are you here?¡± Selena thought for a while and added, ¡°Alright. Your dad and I are going to have dinner. You all sit down and eat together.¡± She had prepared a lot of meals, which were enough to satisfy these people¡¯s hunger anyway. 3/5 A Cassandra stepped forward and said gently, ¡°Mrs. Frey, don¡¯t bother. We¡¯re not hungry. We¡¯re gonna go soon. We just drive Lydia and Eddie home.¡± Selena smiled and joked. She looked at Lydia with some reproach, ¡°You¡¯re not a three¨Cyear- old. Why did you ask so many people to send you home?¡± However, Selena¡¯s eyes were full of doting instead of me! John was happy to see so many people when he came out. ¡°You¡¯re all here. Selena¡¯s prepared a lot. Let¡¯s have dinner together.¡± Lydia took out an A4 piece of paper from her bag and tiptoed over to Selena. ¡°Mom, I went to Ms. Yates to check on my health. Here¡¯s the medical report. Please take a look.¡± Selena thought something was wrong with Lydia, and her tone became a little anxious. When she took the report, she said, ¡°Why didn¡¯t you tell me that you¡¯re not feeling well? I should have apanied you for the examination earlier. You really¡­¡± She was shocked by the words on the report! ¡°Is that true?¡± John was also worried about Lydia. He wondered, ¡®God, please bless her! She¡¯s too young to suffer!¡® ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± He hurriedly approached over. Then he saw the words ¡°Pregnancy for four and a half weeks¡°. He also asked in surprise, ¡°Is it true?¡± ¡°Ms. Yates and doctors in the Whitecrane Hall checked me out. It¡¯s true!¡± Lydia answered seriously. ¡°Dad, Mom, please take care of Lydia.¡± Eddie was a little apologetic. After all, he would go back to the armyter. He had to entrust Lydia to his parents. ¡°What are you talking about? I¡¯m happy to take care of Lydia.¡± Selena was so happy with the pregnancy test report. 4/5 A Chapter 438 She thought God must have heard her prayer, so he let Lydia get pregnant! This content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org. Selena thought, ¡®That¡¯s awesome!¡± Cassandra said, ¡°Mrs. Frey, don¡¯t bother. We¡¯ll go out for dinnerter. Please take care of Lydia at home with Mr. Frey.¡± At this time, they should enjoy the joy and wait for Lydia¡¯s unborn baby to be born and grow up. Seeing Lydia and Eddie, as well as John and Selena who were filled with anticipation for the baby in Lydia¡¯s belly, Cassandra thought this should be the parents¡® initial reaction. Children shoulde with the blessings and expectations of their parents, rather than like her, who was abandoned by her parents, though she was the healthy one between the two babies. Actually, this sounded a little ironic. Cassandra thought, ¡®So wonderful! Lydia finally has aplete family. Chapter 439 Chapter 439 Soon, the Christmas holiday was over. Keh resumed his busyness, and even the Falcon Special Operations Force began its hectic training. It was a peaceful year this year. There were no urgent tasks. All they needed was normal training. Keh didn¡¯t have to supervise their training every day. It was enough for Kayden and Yannick to be there. Cassandra also started school. ording to Howard, she missed ssesst semester, so she had to give two lessons each for undergraduates and graduate students this semester. Cassandra was speechless. She thought, ¡®So strict!¡® Howard didn¡¯t care so much and directly arranged for her. Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org. On the afternoon of the first day of school, everyone was still in a sluggish state. After all, they had been rxed on a holiday. Unexpectedly, a ss notice popped up on the school¡¯s intr on the first day. Time: 10:10 a.m., Monday Venue: ssroom 505, Physics Building Subject: Thermodynamics and Statistical Physics Lecturer: Cassandra Yates (ine) The students of the Physics Department went crazy when they saw this notice. They wondered, ¡°What? Didn¡¯t the school just get started? ¡®Don¡¯t professors even prepare lessons? 1/5 A Chapter 439 ¡®Professor Yates certainly has never done this. Does she teach us without a n again? ¡®Forget it. Whatever! The most important thing is to choose this ss. In just a minute, all the quotas for the ss were full! [Oh my gosh! I can¡¯t believe I sessfully chose the ss of Professor Yates. It was so hard! Professor Yates has several sses, but I got this one only!] [Are you showing off? I haven¡¯t even sat in a ssroom listening to Professor Yates!] [Oh, really? I¡¯m so sorry. I got it!] [Me, too. I attended all of Professor Yates¡¯s sses. She¡¯s awesome! How could she be so intelligent?] [I don¡¯t know, but I know you¡¯re so quick!] [You¡¯re so amazing to attend every ss of Professor Yates!] [I¡¯m envious of you. You have such an awesome professor. Does Professor Yates have any research on business administration or get an MBA degree?] [Don¡¯t exaggerate it. Cassandra is a human, not a god. Do you really think she can do anything? Business administration? Can she understand it?] [She can! I have evidence! I still bear it in my mind! Once when I failed the macroeconomics exam and cried by the pond on campus, Professor Yates came up tofort me, saying that my crying disturbed her and asking what had happened. Then, under her guidance, I memorized all the essentials of macroeconomics and got an A on the exam!!] [I wanna say Professor Yates is so cute! ¡°Your crying disturbed, her¡°, haha!]¡± [That¡¯s so funny!] [Professor Yates is amazing. What else can she not do?] There were countlessments. Students quarreled on the university forum for a long time, but there was no result. 2/5 M Chapter 439 However, on her first day of school, Cassandra went straight to the Principal¡¯s Office and expressed her intention to graduate in traditional medicine. She had a far¨Creaching goal and wanted to realize it. Henry agreed directly. He had promised her at the beginning that she could graduate straight away in traditional medicine as long as she wanted. After all, her professors couldn¡¯t teach her anymore. ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll ask the Traditional Medicine Department to arrange a graduation ceremony for you.¡± Henry felt that holding a ceremony was very necessary. ?? After all, this was probably thest time she graduated. ¡°Please don¡¯t bother. I can just take the exam and get a certificate. Please inform my teachers. There¡¯s no need to make a scene.¡± Most importantly, she was afraid of trouble. When she graduated in physics, she didn¡¯t refuse Henry because there was also an appointment ceremony. She would refuse him this time. ¡°Well, aren¡¯t you lonely?¡± Henry was surprised. He didn¡¯t think it was proper. ¡°No. I often get my diploma in this way. Please don¡¯t bother.¡± Cassandra hastened to make up her mind and persuaded Henry to give it up. ¡°All right. I¡¯ll ask someone to prepare your diploma.¡± Henry didn¡¯t quite understand straight¨CA students. He used to think he was a straight¨CA student in his era, but now, he saw many more excellent youngsters, especially Cassandra. Many people¡¯s wisdom together wasn¡¯tparable to Cassandra¡¯s, let alone his alone. Henry admitted it. Someone spread the news that Cassandra would graduate in traditional medicine. The hot discussion hit the university forum. [Am I crazy, or is the world? How could she be able to do everything? She¡¯s gonna A Chapter 439 graduate? She has studied for half a year!] [Haha, you must be ignorant. When Professor Yates graduated in physicsst semester, our university intended to let her graduate in traditional medicine and allow her to teach. After all, her certificate and skills in traditional medicine were not for nothing.] [I can only say that she¡¯s awesome¡­] [What a big gap among people! When will Professor Yates and I be able to get closer?] [Let me tell you about this. When you go to the crematorium, Professor Yates¡® boyfriend will take you there in person.] [Well, thank you so much!] [Professor Yates is a winner in life, right? Who else is more awesome than her? Who else can find a better boyfriend like her?] [Is this the so¨Ccalled appreciation between excellent people?] [Can you stop boasting her? Keh won¡¯t like Cassandra forever. Just wait and see! She¡¯ll be dumped!] [Do you know anything? Share it!] [My cousin has married into a rich family. Her family members all know what happened to Mr. Zelinski. It¡¯s said that he has an unforgettable crush, and no one can rece her. Think about it, if the girles back, Cassandra will be dumped.] [Gosh! Is it true?] [I¡¯m speechless!] After Cassandra signed up, Keh picked her up and left. Suddenly she received a WhatsApp message. It was from Sofia. Sofia: Cassandra, is it true? Sofia then sent a link and a screenshot to her. It was about Keh¡¯s unforgettable crush. ? N Chapter 439 ZN Im 18:29 Cassandra looked at the post with great interest, and then read thatment and its replies. It seemed to make sense. If Cassandra hadn¡¯t known that she was always the one in Keh¡¯s heart, she would have believed that. Keh came over and asked softly, ¡°What are you looking at?¡± Cassandra opened the screenshot and deliberately asked, ¡°Keh, I heard that you have an unforgettable crush. Do I know her?

Cassandra thought Keh was angry, so she immediately tilted her head to look at him and said, ¡°Ken, are you mad? I just wanted to tease you. I¡¯m not angry with or suspicious of you.¡± She thought, ¡®Can¡¯t we even trust each other?¡± Keh came back to his senses and smiled gently, ¡°I¡¯m indeed angry, but not with you.

As long as the rumors were hot, some people would gossip and send them to Cassandra. ¡°I¡¯ll look into it.¡± Cassandra stood up and went upstairs to get herputer. Back in Pinehart Mansion, she didn¡¯t work very much, so herputer was put all upstairs. Keh followed her upstairs. They found it out within two minutes. The one whomented was a junior student. Someone from her family married Daniel¡¯s son¡­ Judging from their rtionship, it was indeed the cousin of the one whomented who married into the Walker family. However, the Walker family was not wealthy. It could only be said that Daniel was from a political family. Daniel¡¯s son seemed to be a businessman. Keh became sullener. He said coldly, ¡°Cassie, wait for me at home. I¡¯ll go to them.¡± He felt that things were not that simple for no reason. Sure enough, a said diren ¡°Read it before that. This junior is Estelle Carson from a wealthy family. ording to her information, she¡¯s had a crush on you for many years, but she¡¯s never shown her face to you. I don¡¯t think it appropriate for you toe to get even with her like this¡­¡± Keh said, ¡°I¡¯m not obliged to like her. I even don¡¯t know what she¡¯s like. How dare she ruin our rtionship behind our backs? It¡¯s already kind enough to her that I haven¡¯t taught her a lesson directly.¡± When Keh thought about it, he felt angry. He wondered how vicious those people were. They were as scared as rats in front of Keh but showed their love secretly and dared to sow discord now. Was it because he had been too kind recently that he gave them a chance? ¡°It¡¯s their choice who they like, but I¡¯m not gonna let them mess things up just because 10% 10:29 they fancy me and sow discord between us.¡± Keh was determined. It wasn¡¯t easy for him to be with Cassandra, and he hadn¡¯t married her yet. He couldn¡¯t let anyone come between them. No one could interfere in their rtionship. ¡±???? ¡°I¡¯ll go with you, and Mr. Walker might be able to be convinced.¡± After all, Daniel was Keh¡¯s subordinate. He must have trusted Keh. It was Sunday today, and Daniel¡¯s family were at home in the military residentialpound. When Daniel saw Cassandra, he was a little surprised. ¡°Cassie, what are you doing here?¡± Daniel¡¯s son and daughter¨Cinw were both there, but ording to her age, she should be nearly 30 years old. Why didn¡¯t she understand what to say and what not to say? ¡°Mr. Walker, I have something to tell you.¡± Keh came straight to the point. ¡°Let¡¯s talk in the study.¡± Daniel thought it was about work, so he nned to go to the study. ¡°No need. To be exact, we¡¯re here for Daisy rk.¡± Cassandra shook her head. It was more proper for her to say these words. Daniel was surprised. He wondered why Cassandra had anything to do with Daisy. Even Daisy herself was surprised. ¡°Me? Ms. Yates, I don¡¯t seem to have anything to do with you.¡± Daisy didn¡¯t like Cassandra from the bottom of her heart, because she often heard Daniel praising Cassandra¡¯s capability at home. As a woman, how could Daisy put up with her father¨Cinw often praising an outsider? She felt embarrassed. She wondered why Daniel disliked his family member but a daughter of another family. Scott, Daniel¡¯s son, was stunned. ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡± Cassandra took out her phone from her bag and showed Daniel everything that Sofia sent M OSTO DFF ** N 10% 10:29 Chapter 440 to her, as well as what she found. Daniel became more and more serious. He had so many information technicians under hismand. How could he not understand this? ¡°Mrs. Walker, you¡¯d also have a look. If you don¡¯t understand it, you can ask Mr. Scott Walker. He must know.¡± Cassandra handed theputer to Daisy and Scott. Daisy took over theputer nervously, feeling that something bad was going to happen¡­ The moment she saw it, her face turned pale. ¡°It¡¯s not me!¡± Just now, Cassandra also dug out the chat records between Daisy and her cousin Estelle, clearly showing what she said. [Estelle, if you like Mr. Zelinski, you must hurry up. Cassandra is nothing. The more capable women are, the less men like them, let alone Keh who has a sense of superiority when he protects women. You still have a chance. You¡¯re 21 years old, so there¡¯s not much gap. between you and him in age.] [You must know Mr. Zelinski has an unforgettable crush. I heard that if a man has so, it proves that his current girlfriend is just a substitute for his crush. That¡¯s the current situation of Cassandra. Think about it. You still have a chance, don¡¯t you?] [As long as the rtionship between Mr. Zelinski and Cassandra is broken, you¡¯re gonna have a chance. I¡¯m your cousin. When you marry Mr. Zelinski in the future, you should help me.] Estelle replied: [Is this true? Does Mr. Zelinski really have an unforgettable crush?] Daisy: [Absolutely. You can make good use of it to sow trouble first and then find a chance to show up in front of Mr. Zelinski.] There were also other messages Daisy sent to Estelle. Daisy¡¯s face turned pale instantly, and she was at a loss. Scott looked at her in disbelief, wondering if Daisy was his gentle and sensible wife. How did she be like this? Chapter 441 Chapter 441 ¡°No, it¡¯s not me. I didn¡¯t do this. Where did you get the screenshot? How dare you wrong me?¡± Daisy looked at Cassandra with unfriendly eyes. She added, ¡°I have no grudge against you. How could you nder me like this? Aren¡¯t you afraid that I¡¯ll sue you?¡± With her father¨Cinw and husband around, Daisy was not afraid of any of them. ¡°You know better than anyone here whether you¡¯re wronged or not. Do you think the chat history can¡¯t be recovered after being cleared on WhatsApp?¡± Cassandra looked at Daisy coldly. ¡°You¡¯re right. I have no enemies with you. So why did you do this to me?¡± ¡°I wanna know when I had an unforgettable crush. Mrs. Walker, you¡¯re very good at speaking.¡± Keh snorted lightly, nced at Daniel who looked gloomy, and said to Daisy, ¡°If you can¡¯t exin it, you can talk about it to mywyer.¡± ¡°Mr. Zelinski¡­¡± Scott wanted to calm him down. However, Scott found himself in no position to persuade him. ¡°Tell me what¡¯s going on!¡± Scott said to Daisy with a cold face. He didn¡¯t want to offend Keh. After all, Keh was not as simple as he looked! ¡°What do you want me to confess? You can¡¯tmit my crime just because of this. I don¡¯t ept it!¡± Daisy denied it. $ Daniel¡¯s face darkened more. ¡°Admit what you¡¯ve done. The Walker family doesn¡¯t need a daughter¨Cin¨C law who only knows how to lie and sow trouble.¡± Daisy looked at Daniel in disbelief. ¡°Dad, even you don¡¯t believe me?¡± ¡°Estelle¡¯s oftene to our house since days ago, and now there¡¯s trouble. Do you think I should trust you or the evidence?¡± After thinking twice, Daniel realized something was wrong. Estelle seldom came there before, but recently, especially during the Christmas holiday, she came almost every day. ¡°Mr. Walker, I¡¯m just informing you of this. It¡¯s up to you how to deal with it.¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t want to talk nonsense with such a person like Daisy. Cassandra thought Daisy, as 10% 10:29 Chapter 441 Daniel¡¯s daughter¨Cinw, should be reasonable. Now it seemed that Daisy was quite opposite to her expectations. Then what was the use of saying so much to Daisy? ¡°But I think you and Estelle should know one thing.¡± Cassandra looked at Daisy. It happened that Daisy was holding her phone in her hand. Cassandra grabbed it, unlocked it easily, and dialed Estelle¡¯s number. ¡°Hello, Daisy. What¡¯s the matter?¡± Estelle added, ¡°I¡¯m telling you, people in my university are very curious about Mr. Zelinski¡¯s crush. I n to draw their attention to me. By then, Mr. Zelinski will look at me!¡± Estelle was very excited on the other end of the phone. It seemed that she had already been imagining her better life, but¡­ Cassandra¡¯s voice came. ¡°This is Cassandra.¡± Estelle asked, ¡°Cassandra? Why do you have Daisy¡¯s phone? What do you wanna do?¡± Cassandra said, ¡°I just wanna tell you something.¡± Daisy¡¯s expression changed. Cassandra said, ¡°Keh¡¯s unforgettable crush and his girlfriend are the same person. That¡¯s me, Cassandra Yates. You¡¯d better quit your little trick.¡± Keh aside felt very happy. He could have forced Daisy and Estelle to admit it by tough means, but he enjoyed Cassandra being jealous, standing up for him, and announcing their rtionship: What a wonderful look! Other people¡¯s expressions froze. After hearing this, Estelle began to scream on the other end of the phone. Cassandra ignored her and hung up the phone. & M Chapter 4 10% 18:29 ¡°Mr. Walker, I¡¯m sorry to bother you. We gonna go.¡± Cassandra nodded to Daniel and put Daisy¡¯s phone on the coffee table. ¡°Mr. Scott Walker, I believe you must know how to deal with it.¡± Keh gave a warning. Then Keh and Cassandra left directly. After returning to the Pinehart Mansion, Keh suddenly said, ¡°Cassie, how about we make it public?¡± Cassandra was a little confused about what he meant. Their rtionship now was no different from being public! ¡°I mean, we can announce it on Twitter. What do you think?¡± Keh felt that it was necessary to persuade those who coveted him and Cassandra to retreat. ¡°Sure. You post it first and I¡¯ll follow.¡± Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org. Keh opened Twitter happily. Fortunately, he had learned how to send a post before. Keh sent a post with his officially certified ount: [@Samantha (Cassandra), Cassie, my unforgettable crush and my forever love, love you!] Cassandra quickly forwarded the post with the words: [Thank you for your love.] She then posted with her ount @Samantha (Cassandra): [You¡¯re my big boy ever and forever. @Keh] The couple could be said to be a very explosive existence in the whole circle! [Oh my gosh! Is this an official announcement?!] [Ahhh! What did I see? My beloved boy and girl get together?] [They¡¯re so low¨Ckey. I can¡¯t believe they didn¡¯t announce it officially until now!] [I¡¯m crying! I¡¯ve always thought Mr. Zelinski is gay. He and Mr. Yates are a couple! He has a girlfriend!] 3 *UZN 10x 10:30 Chapter 441 [Hahaha, you got the most interestingment!] [They are not low¨Ckey at all, okay? They¡¯ve shown off at Juset University, but they haven¡¯t been discovered!] [Haha, I knew it! Only Mr. Zelinski is worthy of my Samantha! What a perfect match!] [Isn¡¯t it said that Mr. Zelinski has an unforgettable crush? It turns out to be Cassandra. No wonder!] [Mr. Zelinski has said that his unforgettable crush is Cassandra. There¡¯s no doubt about it, okay? He¡¯s so faithful to his girlfriend.] [Well, have you forgotten how he punished others?] [I¡¯m not the one who was punished. Why should I remember it? Besides, please go and see why Mr. Zelinski treated those people so hard before you said so!¡°] [Congrattions! That¡¯s wonderful! The lovers got together!] [Hmph, Cassandra isn¡¯t worthy of Mr. Zelinski. Can you stop?] [Cassandra is from a humble background. How dare she stand beside Mr. Zelinski?] [There¡¯s a big age difference between them. Did Cassandra seduce Mr. Zelinski?] [Damn it! Shut up! You can¡¯t see her being happy, can you? Dare you to scold them with your official ount?] Keh soon found that the trolls were hired by Estelle. Soon, Yannick threw her back to the Carson residence. The Carson family didn¡¯t dare to offend Keh, so they had to send Estelle abroad and never allowed her toe back unless she died. Daisy was also severely punished by Scott and came to apologize in person. After that, Daniel arranged for her to take care of the elderly in a nursing home and monitor her at any time. If she dared to treat the elderly badly, she would be punished again. Chapter 442 Chapter 442 As time flew by, it was in the middle of March a yearter. On March 15, the new semester had just started. Keh was looking forward to the day because it was Cassandra¡¯s 20¨Cyear¨Cold birthday. After that day, he could marry her immediately! He couldn¡¯t wait for it! Since Cassandra signed the military marriage contractst Christmas, Keh had been making a countdown. Even the day they officially announced their rtionship had passed for a year! Keh sent a post about Cassandra¡¯s birthday party on the Inte. This was Cassandra¡¯s 20¨Cyear-old birthday. He wanted to give her a different birthday. Her 20¨Cyear¨Cold must be full of blessings. Therefore, as soon as the news of her birthday party came out, it attracted the attention ofizens. [Wow! Happy birthday!!] [I don¡¯t know why, but I always have a feeling that Mr. Zelinski can¡¯t wait for it. It¡¯s like something is gonna break out of the cage!] [The flower raised by himself is about to bloom.] [I suspect you¡¯re talking dirty and I got evidence!] [Agreed. Keh is a gentleman. He respects Cassandra so much that he didn¡¯t even¡­ What a gentleman!] [Yeah. If Keh hadn¡¯t said it himself, I¡¯d have thought they slept together!] [Well, me too! I always thought they had a baby, but it turns out that they just kissed and hugged each other.] 1/5 D & M Chapter 442 10 10:30 [This makes me believe in love again. When can I meet my Mr. Right? I hope he could be as one¨Ctenth of good as Mr. Zelinski is.] [I feel like you¡¯re in your dream. Have you done your homework? Have you checked it? Did you get all A¡¯s in the school tests?] [Damn, how vicious you¡¯re! I thought my teacher was here!] [Shouldn¡¯t we bless Cassandra? What are you doing?] [Happy 20th birthday to Samantha! We¡¯re so lucky to have you along the way.] [Love you forever! Happy 20th birthday!] [My goddess Samantha, you¡¯ll be a woman of legal marriageable age after today. Is there going to be good news?] People keptmenting. Cassandra read thements and felt something was wrong. She did know that Keh had endured great pain for so long. However, in order to give her a sense of security, he never asked for anything but just let her be herself at ease. Nevertheless, taking a cold shower in winter was kind of distressing. Her birthday was not the real one. It was a celebration of the day when Blossom found her. She named it her Reborn Day. Her birth time that Benjamin and Kayden said wasn¡¯t the same. Not knowing her real birthday, Cassandra could only regard today as her birthday. Everyone she was acquainted with came to the party, including her friends and family members. Even Marcus came. It could be imagined how much importance he attached to 1. it. ¡°Cassie, happy birthday!¡± Kayden was the first to step forward and hand her a birthday gift. Even Thomas, who hadn¡¯t seen her for a long time, came. He walked to Cassandra nervously and said, ¡°Cassie, happy birthday.¡± He added in his heart, ¡®And I¡¯m sorry for causing your tragedy.¡® 2/5 A Chapter 442 0103 10:30 If Thomas hadn¡¯t been in trouble back then, people would have found Cassandra soon, and she wouldn¡¯t have lived such a hard life. After knowing the truth, Thomas went abroad for more than a year without going home. At the thought of his only cousin suffering because of him, he felt like being hurt by a knife. Thomas returned home in early March, but he never went back to the Yates residence and didn¡¯t dare to face Cassandra. It was Cassandra¡¯s birthday today. He struggled for a long time, wondering if he was qualified toe there or not. It was Kayden who asked him toe, saying that he must witness Cassandra¡¯s happiness. Therefore, Thomas finally came with the gift he had collected for more than a year. ¡°Thank you¡­¡± Cassandra took the gift and thanked him softly. Thomas was also a child back then. He couldn¡¯t be med for anything for he was also innocent. Lydia took Nelson, her son, there to celebrate Cassandra¡¯s birthday. It was the first time Lydia had brought him out. Nelson was more than a hundred days old, being more and more handsome and cute. ¡°Ms. Yates, I¡¯m here. Please help me pick up Nelson!¡± Lydia handed her son to Cassandra. Cassandra hugged him in surprise. Fortunately, she had learned to hold him, otherwise it would be embarrassing. ¡°He¡¯s too heavy and has been growing at a visible rate recently. Should I control his diet. and let him lose weight?¡± As Lydia spoke, she began to pinch Nelson¡¯s face. Cassandra felt speechless. She thought, ¡®You don¡¯t have to be so cruel. It¡¯ll be fine.¡± ¡°No. He can¡¯t lose weight when he¡¯s growing up. Quit this idea,¡± Cassandra retorted coldly. 3/5 A Chapter 442 However, the moment Cassandra finished speaking, she felt a warmth in her hand. Lydia curled her lips, wondering, ¡®Really?¡® Eddie and Keh came over like Cassandra¡¯s saviors. Cassandra threw Nelson to Eddie. ¡°Hold him.¡± Perhaps Nelson liked Cassandra very much. Every time they met, he was happy to be held by Cassandra and would do bad things. For this reason, Cassandra wanted to hide herself when she saw this little boy. When she was saved, Cassandra went straight upstairs. After taking Nelson, Eddie couldn¡¯t helpughing and said to him dotingly, ¡°You little boy. Why do you always bully Keh¡¯s wife? Do you know how much today means to them?¡± Hearing this, Keh knew that Nelson had done something bad. C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org Keh deliberately said in a cruel tone, ¡°If you bully her again, I¡¯ll let you say goodbye to your pee¨C pee!¡± Nelson curled his lips and burst into tears! Keh felt speechless. Now he knew why Cassandra was defeated by Nelson. This little boy did it on purpose! Keh thought, ¡®So nasty!¡± Everyone in the banquet hall was attracted by the crying of Nelson! People all wondered what had happened. Keh was afraid of this little boy and ran away quickly! He went upstairs to see Cassandra. Keh wondered, ¡®I¡¯d better have a daughter with Cassie. A son like Eddie¡¯s is so troublesome! 4/5 ? : J ¡®If we¡¯d have a daughter like Cassie, my life would be perfect!¡® Cassandra was changing clothes upstairs. However, the zipper on her back clothes got stuck. She was about to call someone to help her when she saw Kehe in. ¡°Luckily, you¡¯re here. The zipper is stuck. Help me!¡± Cassandra turned with her back to Keh. Keh¡¯s Adam¡¯s apple rolled unconsciously with the beautiful scene in front of him. Chapter 443 Chapter 443 Keh slowly stepped forward and touched Cassandra¡¯s back skin. Both of them couldn¡¯t help shivering¡­ Cassandra felt a little embarrassed. ¡°How about you go and call Lydia to help me?¡± She was afraid that something might happen to them in such a situation! She felt she had better find a girl to help her. Keh calmed down and began to zip up Cassandra normally. He chuckled, ¡°Don¡¯t worry. I won¡¯t do anything to you until the beginning of tomorrow.¡± Although he couldn¡¯t wait, he wanted to give Cassandra a good night. Thus, everything had to be waited for. Cassandra blushed, thinking about how to run out without being caught by Keh. His expectant eyes were too naked, which made her overwhelmed. ¡°Why are you here? Don¡¯t you apany people down there?¡± Cassandra wondered, ¡®There are so many people. Is it appropriate that neither of us is there?¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry. Kayden, Eddie, and Jeremiah are there.¡± Keh thought of that little boy and said, ¡°Besides, Eddie¡¯s baby is crying. Lydia may not be able toe up for the time being.¡± ¡°Did you make Nelson cry?¡± Without even thinking about it, Cassandra knew it must have been because of Keh. Only Keh would deliberately scare Nelson. Every time Nelson saw Keh, this little. boy would cry no matter what Keh said. Keh felt speechless. He thought, ¡®No! I was wronged!¡± ¡°Let¡¯s go downstairs.¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t want to listen to Keh¡¯s disguised grievance, so she decided to go down. Today was not so much a birthday party as a proposal and engagement banquet for 1/5 A E 10% 10:30 Chapter 443 Cassandra¡­ So, those who came were all their acquaintances. In order not to let Cassandra have more regrets, Keh called Maximilian over. Everything would be fine as long as he didn¡¯t stop Keh from being with Cassandra, The banquet began, and Keh took the stage to speak. ¡°When I met Cassie, I was 18 years old, almost 19, and she was just a little girl at almost 10. But from her eyes, I saw her unyielding spirit. That month I stayed with her was the happiest time I ever had. I was so happy that I almost reconciled with this world. ¡°However, I left and didn¡¯te back for so many years. When I was back, Cassie was 18 years old. Now she¡¯s 20 and is my wife in my heart and my future partner. I¡¯d like to exchange everything for her.¡± After saying that, Keh took out a ring from his pocket and knelt on one knee. ¡°Cassie, would you like to marry me, always stay with me, and rely on me?¡± He had been waiting for this moment for too long. From 19 to 29, he finally won Cassandra. Cassandra was shocked and moved. She had no idea that Keh was going to propose. She always thought that as soon as she turned 20, she would go to the leader to sign and get a marriage certificate, and then they would hold a wedding ceremony. She had never thought about the proposal, nor did she expect it. The reason was that Keh had been an indispensable part of her life and nothing was more important than him. ¡°Yes, I do.¡± Cassandra reached out and Keh put the ring on her finger. There were screams from the audience. 2/5 A ¡°Wow!¡± ¡°Ah!¡± [Congrattions on Mr. Zelinski winning his love!] [Congrattions to Mr. Zelinski and Ms. Yates!

What¡¯s the point of only allowing us to watch it?] There was a heated discussion. Keh stood up excitedly, hugged Cassandra in his arms, and couldn¡¯t help kissing her. The others were even more excited. Maximilian was also delighted. The elders were all very pleased. They thought, ¡®The two kids have finally made it.¡± Keh had already reached the best age to get married, while Cassandra was still young. It was kind of robbing the cradle. The birthday partysted for a long time. Maximilian couldn¡¯t hold on any longer, so he walked to Cassandra and handed her a box. ¡°This is the birthday gift I prepared for you. Hope you can take it. I¡¯m very d to see you happy. I¡¯ve let go of my previous persistence. I only wish you happiness.¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t know what was inside, but she took it directly. ¡°Thank you.¡± Maximilian felt much relieved when she epted it. ¡°Well, that¡¯s good.¡± Maximilian nodded and said, ¡°I¡¯m tired and gonna go. If Keh bullies you in the future, just tell Kayden. We¡¯ll take revenge for you.¡± A Cassandra just nodded. ¡°Okay.¡± After Maximilian left, it was almost time to eat the cake. Keh asked someone to push the cake tower out. It was time for the final celebration. Lydia was standing at the front with her baby in her arms.

He loved this very much. He had never seen such a Cassandra. He held Cassandra carefully and looked at her deeply. The tablemp on the bedside table turned red, making the whole bedroom warm.

Cassandra felt that she was in a daze. She wondered, ¡®Why is he still at home?¡® She rubbed her eyes and realized that Keh was indeed at home. ¡°Why are you still here?¡± ¡°I¡¯m waiting for you to get up, of course.¡± Keh had packed up and just waited for Cassandra.

Cassandra put her phone aside and said, ¡°I heard that Darren. broke his legs. Do you know it?¡± Keh certainly knew it. The person who hit Darren was arranged by Yannick. Darren had been really patient. He could stay in the Queen¡¯s Pce all the time. If it weren¡¯t for an event that he must attend, Keh would not have found a chance to hit him.

Can¡¯t you allow us to be envious?¡± Someone said boldly. Keh said, ¡°Piss off. Don¡¯t waste my time.¡± He held Cassandra¡¯s hand and went straight to the leader¡¯s office. When the leader saw Keh, he couldn¡¯t help joking, ¡°Well, you¡¯re finally here.¡± He had been waiting there since early morning. It was almost 4 p.m. now. If they came.ter, the City Hall would be closed. Keh handed over the prepared note and said, ¡°Please approve it!¡± ¡°Well, you filled it out so early. Good for you.¡± The leader looked at Cassandra and asked, ¡°Do you agree?¡± Cassandra nodded and said firmly, ¡°Yes, I do.¡± Therefore, the leader directly signed and stamped the note to save them from running around. ¡°All right. You guys hurry up. The City Hall will be closed soon.¡± Otherwise, they would wait till the next day. ¡°Okay, we gonna go.¡± The City Hall would be closed at 5 p.m. It was not toote to get there now. Even if it was toote, they could let the workers work a little overtime.¡± Keh chose a City Hall near his home. It was exactly 5 p.m. when they went in. The staff were ready to go off duty. ¡°You cane tomorrow if you¡¯re here to register for marriage. You should havee earlier. Now we are off work,¡± said a worker. It was time for the staff to go off duty. They had finished their work today. 4/5 Chapter 445 Chapter 445 Keh was a little dissatisfied with the attitudes of these people. Shouldn¡¯t people who were about to get married be blessed? Why were they told to get back home when they just arrived there? He said coldly, ¡°It only takes a few minutes to get registered and take the oath. Can¡¯t you just wait?¡± The clerk was also a little unhappy. They thought, ¡®Haven¡¯t you realized that it is time to get off work? ¡®We¡¯ve been waiting for this for a whole day! Don¡¯t you understand? Don¡¯t make us work overtime!¡± The clerk said patiently, ¡°We¡¯ve already put everything back in the cabs. How about tomorrow morning? I¡¯ll make you the first of the line, okay?¡± After all, they wanted to get married and should be blessed, so the clerk was polite. Keh didn¡¯t want to talk with them anymore. ¡°No, we have to do it now.¡± Then he took out the application for marriage and made another phone call. Originally, the clerk still wanted to refuse him. He didn¡¯t understand why he had to do it now and why he couldn¡¯t wait until tomorrow morning. Just when the clerk was about to refuse Keh again, his phone rang. He picked it up and found that it was a call from his boss. His boss called him just for the registration of the couple in front of him and said he must handle it right now. He thought, ¡®It seems that I can¡¯t offend this person. Otherwise, the boss would not have called me.¡® He gave up and said, ¡°Pleasee with me.¡± He put down his backpack, and resigned to overtime work. 1/5 A Chapter 445 After all, his boss promised to give overtime pay, although not much. It wouldn¡¯t be just a waste of time. Cassandra and Keh quickly finished taking a photo. The person responsible for retouching the photo only intended to choose a filter instead of retouching it more carefully, which made Cassandra a little anxious. She directly asked this person to stand aside and she would do it. Anything that could be done on theputer was not difficult for her. It would take a long time to retouch a photo. Cassandra said, ¡°Give me two minutes. I¡¯ll finish it and you can print it out.¡± After saying that, Cassandra began to retouch the photo at such a fast speed that the retoucher was stunned. He thought, ¡®If I can do it so rapidly, I will finish my work of a day in 1 hour!¡± He thought Cassandra was awesome! Soon Cassandra pressed down enter and finished it. She thought, ¡°This is how we should look in a photo.¡± The retoucher took a look at the photo and found that the difference was not so big but also big. He couldn¡¯t help but ask curiously, ¡°There is a difference. It looks good. Actually, you two are pretty and don¡¯t need to be photoshopped at all. But the lighting today is not so good, which makes the background a little dimmer.¡± Keh was quite satisfied with what the retoucher said. He thought everyone who praised him and Cassandra should be rewarded. So, Keh asked Yannick to bring in the things he had prepared. After Yannick brought the things in, he found the shooting was over so he congratted Keh and Cassandra again and again. ¡°Mr. and Mrs. Zelinski! Congrattions! I wish you all the happiness!¡± Keh took out candies and gifts for the wedding from his bag and handed them to the staff. ¡°Thank you, guys. Thank you.¡± 2/5 A Chapter 445 Then they took the photos to the registration office, filled in the form, and then the certificate with a stamp was issued. The clerk said, ¡°It¡¯s done. Congrattions! I hope you! guys will be in love with each other forever. Now you can go to take the oath.¡± Keh took the marriage certificate, satisfied. The moment he touched it, he felt that it was more solemn and heavy than every other certificate that he had. He thought, ¡®Cassie and I are finally officially married! I got a certificate now and I can proudly tell people that I am Cassandra¡¯s husband. Keh took out candies from his bag and handed them to the staff. ¡°Thank you.¡± Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024. Cassandra and Keh, holding the marriage certificates, went to another office to take an oath. They stood on the stage and swore in unison, ¡°I take Cassandra/Keh to be mywful wife/husband, and from this day forward I swear that I will always love, protect, honor, and remain true to you. ¡°I, take you, Cassandra/Keh, for mywful wife/husband, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health. ¡°In the name of God, I will love and honor you all the days of my life until parted by death.¡± They took an oath and then kissed each other affectionately. Keh thought at this moment, he was the happiest man in the world and no one could be happier than him. This series of procedures took about 40 minutes. To express his gratitude, Keh gave each member of the staff some candies for the wedding and an envelope with money inside. The amount of money in each one was 1000 dors. All of a sudden, their resentment disappeared. They used all the blessing words they could think of, which made Keh very happy. He thought people in the City Hall were very nice. He decided to ask Kayden toe here too when he decided to get married. After returning to Pinehart Mansion, Keh couldn¡¯t help but take some photos to show off. 3/5 A 4/5 This time, he did it proudly and openly. He asked the staff to send the photo to his mailbox and he downloaded and saved it. Since the official announcement, Keh would show off on Twitter from time to time, which made people envy him every time. But it was the first time that he sent a post with a photo to show off. Keh¡¯s tweet: [Honey, I will never stop loving you @Samantha (Cassandra).] Everyone was surprised. [Hahaha, I was right. Keh took Cassandra to get married the next day!] [Howe? You are so good! Or, Keh is just too impatient.] [Congrattions! I am waiting to see your beautiful babies!] [I¡¯m impressed. He was too impatient! Do you guys know how much I lost for this?] [A friend of mine wants to know how much you have lost.] [I lost two months¡® breakfast money!] [No gambling!] [Congrattions! You two finally made it!] [It¡¯s a little unfair to Cassandra. After all, she has just turned 20 years old. She is too young for a marriage certificate? They didn¡¯t even have a wedding. Would she be fooled? I¡¯ve heard that rich families were like traps!] [Don¡¯t you know that Cassandra is wealthy too? Only Keh is good enough for her. Don¡¯t overthink it!] [What I¡¯m curious about now is how beautiful their babies will be.] [Congrattions! I wish you happiness. I believe in true love again.] [Keh, Cassandra, congrattions! Keh, you must be nice to Cassie. She has suffered enough. You can¡¯t let her suffer anymore.] V Chapter 445 [I think you sounded weird.] [There must be something wrong. Thisment doesn¡¯t have an IP address and it spoils. the mood. I don¡¯t understand what he or she means.] [Someone from the loyal family of Zosteylor.] [Stop. I felt sick as soon as I heard anything about them and Leonardo¡¯s family. These. people are disgusting!] Looking at the blessingsments, Keh became wild. Keh couldn¡¯t send another tweet: [I have felt your blessings. To show my gratitude, let¡¯s have a lucky draw. I will randomly choose a thousand people who will get 2000 dors in cash. The results will be out at 23:59 on March 16.] Chapter 446 Chapter 446 Cassandra¡¯s message popped up again. She looked at Keh in surprise and asked, ¡°Why did you say that?¡± Keh raised his eyebrow happily and said, ¡°Yannick taught me a few days ago. It¡¯s quite interesting. Everyone congratted us. I think we should give something back to them, otherwise I would feel sorry.¡± Cassandra was speechless. So she logged on to her Twitter ount and sent two tweets: [Mr. Zelinski, thanks. @Keh] [Lucky draw: a thousand people and 2000 dors for each of them. The results will be out at 23:59 on March 16.] This content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org. Their tweets made everyone online go crazy. [Damn it! So 4 million dors was spent in such a short time? I guess poverty has limited my imagination and my thoughts!] [I am amazed. They are both going to do it and they will spend so much on it!] [I think I¡¯m going to be rich! 2000 dors from each of them and I¡¯ll quit my job immediately!] [Dreamer!] [I think Cassandra has changed. She starts to show off and do things that a lot of others. were doing, like the lucky draw, but I like it!] [I can tell that Cassandra has been very happy this year. She smiled more often and she was like a different person!] [Yeah, she is sharing her happiness with us!] [I can handle their public disy of affection!] 1/5 [I don¡¯t need these rewards, I just hope Cassandra will always be healthy, happy, and naive and in love with Keh forever.] [I think the lucky draw can be canceled. As long as you have a good life, we¡¯re fine!] [Second it.] [I¡¯m just saying that if you are fine, we will be fine. We don¡¯tck these!] [You guys are so funny. You can earn 600 dors a month and you feel sad because of someone who earns 6 million dors a month. Don¡¯t you think you¡¯re a little bit ridiculous?] [It makes sense. Do they think they were saints? They¡¯re so rich. What¡¯s wrong with sharing. a little of their wealth with themon people.] [Are you out of your mind? You want their money while hating the rich.] [Today is important for Samantha. I won¡¯t quarrel with you guys. You can try me tomorrow!] Cassandra read thements and found some people very hostile. But she didn¡¯t mind it at all. She had been used to it. Soon, a lot of people gathered in Pinehart Mansion. Kayden, Eddie, Lydia, Vanessa, Jeremiah, Yannick, Den, Cyrus, Hugo, Omar, and event Lucas, and his wife were here. They all looked at Keh with gloomy faces. Kayden broke the silence. ¡°Keh, you bastard! I¡¯ve never seen you so anxious. Right after Cassie¡¯s birthday, you made her marry you!¡± Lucas couldn¡¯t help but ask curiously, ¡°I just want to know how you persuade Cassie.¡± This was what made him the most confused. He wondered why Cassandra agreed with Keh. Keh was speechless. He thought, ¡®What else could I do?¡± 2/5 A Chapter 446 Ethan¡¯s sole contribution was his ability to provide backup, and he was notably skilled at picking locks. So far, there hadn¡¯t been a safe he couldn¡¯t crack. Keh didn¡¯t want to exin it. He said, ¡°I just did it.¡± Cassandra said, ¡°I did need him to persuade me.¡± Culvia Were Lucas and shocked. They thought, ¡®Guess if I believe you.¡± Lucas couldn¡¯t help but snort, ¡°Humph. I almost believed you.¡± Until an hour ago, seeing their marriage license, he was petrified. He wondered how exactly Keh managed to do it. Cassandra was speechless. She turned to Keh in disbelief. Jeremiah looked at Keh andined, ¡°Don¡¯t you think it¡¯s a little too much? Did you give us the betrothal gift? Have we discussed the wedding? How dare you marry Cassie without our permission?¡± Keh looked at Jeremiah as if he were a fool. ¡°Don¡¯t you know that all my property belongs to my wife now?¡± She hadn¡¯t used it but if things went out of hand, Keh would have to get a divorce with nothing. He couldn¡¯t even take a penny away with him then. He thought, ¡®Is he stupid? He knows, right?¡± Jeremiah was speechless. He vaguely remembered it. Denughed, ¡°So Zelinski Group and Modern Beacon Synergy are both Cassie¡¯s. Is she the richest person in the world now?¡± He thought, ¡®It¡¯s not bad, then!¡± 3/5 A Chapter 446 Den hoped that Cassandra would have a better life. She had suffered a lot when she led them to start a business. It was time for her to enjoy her life. Keh nodded. ¡°That¡¯s right.¡± Cyrus didn¡¯t say anything. He knew he was not good enough for her. She had found happiness but it was not him who gave her that. Yannick audaciously sent the gift to Cassandra and Keh. ¡°Mr. and Mrs. Zelinski, I wish you two happiness! We¡¯re waiting for your babies! We¡¯ll take care of the babies!¡± Lucas resisted the urge to hit someone and said, ¡°I don¡¯t need you! Do you think my wife and I are not as good as you?¡± Cassandra felt speechless. She thought Lucas was the most resentful one among them just now. Yannick handed the gift to Cassandra and said solemnly, ¡°Mrs. Zelinski, this gift is from me, Ethan, and Lamont. Ethan paid the most money. He felt ashamed to show up in front of you. If he had handled what happened back then properly, you and Mr. Zelinski would have been separated for so long.¡± In the past year, Ethan only showed up during the Christmas holiday. He felt too ashamed to see Cassandra. Cassandra took the gift and saidzily, ¡°Let go of what happened in the past. Your boss and I didn¡¯t lose anything. We are both trying to be better. If I didn¡¯t forget it, I may not be who I am now. Maybe I would try to find someone to depend on and save me. I would be ruined then.¡± She thought everything was the best now. She said, ¡°Go back and tell Ethan to get over what happened before. If he still feels guilty, make more money for Keh. What belongs to Keh belongs to me, too.¡± Yannick said, ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll go now!¡± Yannick thought if Ethan knew about this, he would cry with joy. 4/5 Chapter 447 Chapter 447 Everyone at Juset University was shocked because Professor Yates, the youngest professor there, got married! From now on, she had a husband and she was someone¡¯s wife. But she just had turned 20! When Cassandra returned to school, she was surrounded by her students. After all, they were all shocked. Somehow, they thought their professor had changed after her 20th birthday. She became gentle and amicable. The fierceness and indifference in her eyes seemed to have faded or disappeared. However, Cassandra hadn¡¯t gotten unustomed to her students¡® enthusiasm and was slightly stunned. ¡°What¡¯s wrong? What happened?¡± She thought her students wanted to ask her questions. But then she felt that something was wrong because her students were staring at her as if they had been waiting for something exciting. A girl said, ¡°Professor Yates, we have seen the news online. Congrattions!¡± Cassandra nodded and thanked them. ¡°Thank you.¡± ¡°We all saw it!¡± A girl asked, ¡°Professor Yates, how did you make sure that Keh was the right person for you? How do you know you have made the right choice? You are even younger than us.¡± Cassandra was speechless. She thought thest sentence was really unnecessary. She said, ¡°I don¡¯t know how. The future is unpredictable but now, he is the right one. He puts me first and cares about me at any time. I think this is the right one.¡± Cassandra thought for a while and said, ¡°In other words, if you are happy every time you see him, you are happy. You like everything about him. Even if you feel some dissatisfaction, you will be sure if you think it is not a serious problem. 1/5 A Another thing is that you don¡¯t allow this person to get hurt or unhappy. You are happy when he¡¯s happy and sad when he¡¯s sad. You will be sure you love him.¡± Cassandra thought she finally had figured everything out. Having Keh was a wonderful thing for her. But she still warned the students rationally. ¡°The rtionship between Keh and me is not something typical. When you meet your life partner, keep your eyes open and be alert. No matter you¡¯re a boy or girl, you should get to know your partner or lover more before having a heart¨Cto¨Cheart talk. Say no to gaslight. If you find anything wrong, immediately leave.¡± This content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org. A lot of people wanted to kill themselves, which had endlessly emerged, and some even really ended in death. Even if you love someone, you have to be reasonable. How can you give up your life? What else is more important?¡± All the boys and girls present were silent hearing Cassandra¡¯s words. Professor Yates used to be a good lecturer and would save every redundant word. They were surprised that she talked a lot today. She was really a different person now. The girl thanked her sincerely. ¡°Thank you, Professor. I know what to do then.¡± Someone else said, ¡°Professor Yates, we also prepared some wedding gifts for you. They are all in the ssroom and remember to open them.¡± Cassandra was stunned. She thought, ¡®They even prepared a gift for me?¡¯ She found her students so adorable. From a different perspective, they were from the same university and they were a perfect match. ¡°Thank you. I¡¯ll open them one by one. Thank you for your blessing.¡± Cassandra thanked him and said, ¡°I¡¯ll invite all my ssmates to The Urban for dinner this Saturday. Everyone will tell each other about it. I¡¯ll also tell them in their chat groupster.¡± was shocked. apter He thought, ¡®Professor, where are you going to eat? ¡®The Urban? ¡®The Urban that we are thinking about? ¡®Isn¡¯t it the ce where you can easily spend millions of dors on a meal?¡± Although she was shocked, some students were still sober. ¡°Professor, you are not in our group chat!¡± Cassandra was speechless. She thought it really didn¡¯t have to be so loud. She thought, ¡®I said that I would inform everyone in the group chat. Don¡¯t worry way. I felt so embarrassed hearing it.¡¯ She said, ¡°Please ask the lead of the sophomore and junior toe here. I¡¯ll join the chat groupter.¡± The girl replied, ¡°Okay.¡± Soon, Jeremiah was informed of this. He was so angry that he almost spat. He thought, ¡®Howe ine spent more money after getting married than before? ¡®After all, she has so many students, not just a few, not just dozens. ¡®She has hundreds of students!¡± If all of them ate at the Urban, it would cost a lot of food and a fortune. Jeremiah thought, ¡®Even if they were satisfied with the standard of the first floor, a dinner for hundreds of people would be terrifying. If he kept thinking about it, he thought he would soon have a heart attack. 3/5 Chapter 447 ¡®I have to tell Keh. Will this work? ¡®Nowadays, she easily squandered millions of dors, which she never did before. ¡®Well, she was not much better. She spent half of the dividend at once after all. Jeremiah sent Keh a screenshot of his chat history with ine. Jeremiah: [Can you control your wife?] Keh: [Isn¡¯t that a good thing? Get prepared and the Urban will be closed that day.] Jeremiah was a little confused. Jeremiah: [Do you know how much it costs to book every table in the Urban?] Keh thought Give me your bank card number and I¡¯ll transfer it to you. Don¡¯t ask my wife for money. Keh¡¯s first thought after he read the messages was that his wife finally had spent. some money so he would make her spend more. Jeremiah was speechless. Jeremiah thought, ¡®What a weird couple! ¡®I am so lucky to meet you.¡± Keh didn¡¯t text Jeremiah again. Instead, he went to school happily. Now that he had had a age certificate, he could take a vacation. After all, he hadn¡¯t taken a rest for so many years and his leader had approved it. Now he had plenty of time to spend with Cassandra. As soon as he arrived at the campus gate, he saw the message from Cassandra: [Did youe to pick me up? Come to the office. There¡¯s a lot of things, too many for me.] Keh was a little curious. He wondered what those things were and why there were so many. Cassandra didn¡¯t usually shop at school. Keh went to Cassandra¡¯s office, curious. 4/5 Chapter 447 When he saw what was right in front of her, she was speechless. He thought, ¡®Who moved the gift shop here?¡± He murmured, ¡°Honey, this is¡­¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t believe it herself. She exined, ¡°These are all gifts from my friends and professors.¡± After all, what the student said back then was that there were ¡®some¡® gifts. She thought it might be just a few at first. However, in the end, she made a little hill in the ssroom. They were not just ¡®some¡®. When the ss was over, Cassandra asked her friends to help her carry the gifts to her office. Suddenly, she looked back and found that even Howard had left a gift on her desk. She didn¡¯t know where to sit.. ¡°Then we should take them all. I¡¯ll ask Yannick to drive here.¡± His sports car only had room for three gifts at most, no more. Finally, Yannick and Ethan both arrived, driving arge nanny car. They looked like wholesalers. Chapter 448 Chapter 448 10% 10:33 Back at Pinehart Mansion, Cassandra did nothing but open the presents. She opened them one by one and didn¡¯t even ask Keh for help. When she felt tired, she justy down on the couch. Keh knew she was very happy, but it had been almost an hour since she started to open the gifts. There were still so many of them to be opened. He wondered when it woulde to an end. He wanted to help he with the gifts so she could rest earlier. Keh volunteered. ¡°How about I help you open them?¡± Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024. ¡°No, I¡¯ll do it myself.¡± Cassandra refused. ¡°Keh, I like this feeling a lot. This is the first time that I felt the kind of love between students and teachers.¡± It was a wonderful feeling and it was beautiful. She never thought there could be a deep feeling between teachers and students like friends who would pray for each other. This kind of feeling was subtle. Keh was stunned as if he suddenly understood why Cassandra had to open them herself. They were blessings from her friends, which she even never received from her family. Keh wanted to stay with her. ¡°I¡¯ll stay here with you. After you open one of them, I will help you clean, okay?¡± Cassandra smiled brightly, ¡°Okay, but you have to take good care of them.¡± Keh said, ¡°No problem.¡± He was holding a stuffed animal that had just been unwrapped. It was a panda, about 10 inches long. He couldn¡¯t tell why it was cute but Cassandra seemed to like it. He sent a message to Yannick asking him to bring here a new cab, which should be ced directly in his and Cassandra¡¯s bedroom. 1/5 A Chapter 448. Yannick felt speechless. Yannick thought, ¡®There are already many cabs in Pinehart Mansion. I don¡¯t understand why Keh wants another one. Does he think I am Doraemon? Does he think I can get anything he wants out of magic? ¡®Did he ever check the time?¡® In the end, Cassandra found a very in box, which surprised her. After opening it, she saw a beautiful bracelet inside without a card. She remembered this bracelet. In the previous life, Yulissa asked Leonardo to buy it for her when it was just on the market. However, to set Cassandra up, she threw the bracelet away and said Cassandra stole it. Leonardo whipped her with a horsewhip and called her a thief. He locked her up in a dark room for seven days, with only one meal a day. From then on, she thought the so¨Ccalled family love was abnormal. However, she didn¡¯t escape. She still believed that family was the best until she died. Now, this bracelet appeared again. She thought, ¡®What does it mean? It means the bracelet is from Leonardo and his family. ¡®He felt ashamed so he mixed it with my students¡® gifts. But how did they put it among them?¡® Feeling that Cassandra¡¯s emotions had changed, Keh asked with concern, ¡°What¡¯s wrong? Anything wrong with this bracelet?¡± He wondered why she kept staring at this bracelet. Cassandra¡¯s good mood was ruined. She said, ¡°This is a gift from Leonardo.¡± Keh was stunned. ¡°Aren¡¯t they all from your students and colleagues?¡± He knew these gifts were all from school. 2/5 A Chapter 448 Cassandra told Keh everything that happened in her previous life. ¡°This bracelet was special for the Christmas. It also appeared in my previous life. Leonardo bought it for Yulissa.¡± With a cold face, Keh took the bracelet from Cassandra and directly broke it. Keh said furiously, ¡°Then this kind of thing should not exist.¡± He thought it seemed that they were too leisurely to save money and buy a bracelet for his wife. He said, ¡°Get someone to return this thing to Leonardo. They¡¯d better never show up again. as if they were dead. Yulissa is dead so everything is over. I don¡¯t want to see them ever again.¡± It was Yulissa who killed her and these people were Yulissa¡¯s aplices. The thing that they were most proud of was destroyed so everything shoulde to an end. Keh put the bracelet that was already broken into several pieces back into the box. ¡°Leave it to me. I¡¯ll deal with it.¡± He nned to deliver it back in person the next day. When Cassandra finished unpacking the boxes, it was almost 1 o¡¯clock in the morning. Fortunately, she didn¡¯t have to do anything that day so it did not matter. However, Keh didn¡¯t think so. He carried Cassandra upstairs and said, ¡°Honey, you have been ignoring me for a whole day.¡± Cassandra was shocked. Cassandra thought, ¡®Whatnguage is this? I don¡¯t understand it!¡® She kept begging for mercy. ¡°No, it still hurts. Let me rest for two days.¡± If he continued to do it, she would probably have to lie on the bed forever. Why was there such a big gap between different people in the same kind of sport? She felt as if she had been crushed and reassembled but Keh didn¡¯t feel anything. He was still in high spirits. She thought it was unreasonable. 3/5 A Chapter 448 As Keh spoke, he reached out and moved downward until Cassandra caught his hand. ¡°Where does it hurt? Let me check.¡± Cassandra said, ¡°No, please let go of me. Honey. Ken. Please.¡± Keh¡¯s body stiffened when she said the word ¡°please¡°. He was burning with excitement. He tried to suppress it but failed. He had to bury his face on Cassandra¡¯s neck and his breathing became ragged. Keh felt like he was going to lose his mind. He had just experienced the most wondering thing in the world but he couldn¡¯t get it now. But he knew he should consider Cassandra¡¯s feelings. He could not only care about himself. Cassandra kept motionless for a long time. Cassandra was afraid that it would cause a big problem. Keh said, aggrieved, ¡°Honey, I feel bad.¡± Cassandra was speechless. She murmured in her mind, ¡®The lights in the bedroom are quite beautiful. ¡®Focus on anything else. Don¡¯t respond to him. It will only cause trouble.¡¯ Cassandra said, ¡°Keh, you¡¯re so heavy. Can you get up?¡± She tried to push Keh away but it didn¡¯t seem to work because he was too strong. Keh stood up and looked at Cassandra, distressed. ¡°We¡¯ve got married. Shouldn¡¯t you call me in another way?¡± Cassandra still called him Keh. Although this name sounded good, it was not as good as ¡°Hubby¡°. He had been waiting for this day for a long time. He desperately wanted to hear her call him ¡°Hubby¡°. 4/5 A Chapter 448 Cassandra felt speechless. Cassandra pushed Keh and found that he was still motionless. ¡°Get up. I¡¯ll call you hubby after you get up.¡± Then she managed to get out of the ce between the bed and Keh and stood behind him. This was probably the advantage of being petite. Keh murmured, ¡°Honey.¡± Cassandra suddenly thought his voice sounded a bit exciting. She suddenly stepped forward and put her arms around Keh¡¯s neck. She stood on tiptoes and whispered in Keh¡¯s ear, ¡°Hubby.¡± After saying that, she turned around and ran into the bathroom. When Keh realized what was happening, the bathroom door was closed. Chapter 449 Chapter 449 Keh thought he had heard the sound that was the most beautiful in the world echoing in his ears. He finally heard this word from Cassandra¡¯s mouth and he felt his lifeplete. But Cassandra immediately vanished after that. The door of the bathroom was mmed shut. Kehughed but the excitement in his eyes could not be dispelled. He walked slowly to the bathroom door and then knocked on it. ¡°Honey, can you open the door?¡± Cassandra said firmly, ¡°No.¡± She knew if she opened the door now, she would soon feel like she was dismantled. She didn¡¯t want to go out. The result of that was decided. Keh said, ¡°Good girl, I won¡¯t do anything to you. You have to trust me, honey.¡± He felt a little helpless because his wife was too shy. It put him in a dilemma. Cassandra didn¡¯t speak because she did not know what to say. A man could be believed at any time except for when he was in bed or when he wanted to 1. be. What he said were all lies, especially in front of a girl like Cassandra. Cassandra said, ¡°I won¡¯t open it. I want to take a bath now. Go to sleep.¡± She directly refused it. She knew what was expecting her. Hearing the word ¡°bath¡°, Keh felt his Adam¡¯s apple moving unconsciously. He said, ¡°Honey, don¡¯t you have a little pain? You can¡¯t take a bath on your own. Let me clean your back for you, okay? Will you open the door?¡± At this moment, Keh was like the wolf asking Little Red Riding Hood to open the door 1/5 A Chapter 449 in the fairy tale. His voice was very gentle. As soon as Little Red Riding Hood opened the door, she would be eaten by the wolf. Cassandra wouldn¡¯t fall for this trick. Of course, she wouldn¡¯t open the door now. Cassandra refused it without thinking. ¡°No, I can do it myself. Go to bed now. It will take a long time.¡± Seeing that Cassandra wouldn¡¯t open the door, Keh knew he had no other choice. Yes, he hade up with an idea. So, he asked the butler to bring him all the keys to all the rooms in Pinehart Mansion. The keys of his rooms happened to be hanging on a ring separately. Keh smiled. He asked William to go to bed early and went back to his room. William looked at Keh who looked a little perverted and felt something bad was going to happen. He only hoped that Cassandra would be safe and sound. He thought he should ask Susan to cook somefort food for Cassandra early the next morning because she must feel exhausted tonight. When it came to that thing, there was no difference between Keh and wolves, tigers, or leopards. Cassandra screamed, ¡°Ah!¡± She was a little dumbfounded. She wondered how Keh got in When she saw the keychain in his hand, she pretended to be dead in the bathtub.¡® When Cassandra was out of the room, it was already half past three in the morning. She was so tired that she didn¡¯t even want to lift her hand. It was another mismatch. ***** 2/5 ?? A Chapter 449 Cassandra was awakened by the ringing of her phone. She opened her eyes impatiently and answered the phone without looking at it. ¡°Hello? Who is it?¡± Vincent said anxiously, ¡°Cassie, it¡¯s me, Vincent!¡± Cassandra blinked and asked, ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± Vincent said, ¡°Here¡¯s the thing. Harper is missing and no one can find him. He doesn¡¯t seem to be in Zosteylor. With my eldest brother and my hacking skills, we still can¡¯t find him. So, we need your help.¡± When he heard Cassandra¡¯s questions, he thought she was worrying about them. So, he told her everything right away. Cassandra frowned, ¡°If you can¡¯t find him, why don¡¯t you call the police?¡± Vincent said, ¡°Cassie, don¡¯t you think there will be an upheaval if people know the leader of a country is missing and the police are still searching for him? Zosteylor is finally in a stabilized status so we can¡¯t have another ident.¡± Vincent was a little surprised by Cassandra¡¯s words. He thought, ¡®Wasn¡¯t she worried about it? ¡®Why did she suddenly change?¡® Cassandra said, ¡°Vincent, I guess I don¡¯t have the obligation to help you. I told you we should leave each other alone. Don¡¯t you think you are disturbing me now?¡± She frowned and looked a little upset. One of the reasons was that her sweet dream was interrupted and the other was that she felt pain all over her body. Hearing Vincent¡¯s words, she became even more upset. Vincent was a little anxious so he spoke fast. He said, ¡°But we have no other choice. Even my father has tried it but he failed too. I have to ask you for help.¡± Cassandra said, ¡°Then wait. I¡¯ll try after I have a good rest and feel better.¡± 3/5 14 Chapter Suddenly, Cassandra heard another voice from the other end of the phone. ¡°Give me the phone.¡± It was Darren¡¯s voice. He snatched the phone and said, ¡°Cassandra, I hope you can help 1. me. Zosteylor won¡¯t survive without Harper. If he really disappears, I really don¡¯t know what will happen in Zosteylor.¡± Cassandra frowned, ¡°It doesn¡¯t seem to have anything to do with me.¡± Darren had no choice but to do so. He said, ¡°Just tell me how much we have to pay for you!¡± Cassandra turned over and sat up. Darren asked, ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± ¡°It¡¯s none of your business.¡± Cassandra kept silent for a while and then said, ¡°Since the prince consort regards this as a deal, are you going to give me whatever I want?¡± Darren said, ¡°Yes.¡± Cassandra said, ¡°Do you think Zosteylor can afford it? You know Emery¡¯s never cheap.¡± Emery rarely took orders but one single order couldst her several years. Emery¡¯s name itself was intimidating. Darren said firmly, ¡°I know. I won¡¯t bargain with you.¡± Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024. Cassandra said, ¡°Okay, 4 billion dors then for Harper¡¯s whereabouts. I will give you the address.¡± She thought it was a fair deal anyway. Darren said, ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll get someone to transfer the money to you now.¡± Cassandra sneered, ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll give you a message half an hour after I get the money.¡± Darren said, ¡°Okay.¡± He hung up the phone and returned it to Vincent. Vincent looked at his father, anguished, and said, ¡°Dad, is this really the only way we get along with Cassie?¡± 4/5 A VIICPRCI ??? Now, they were like strangers, probably even worse than strangers. It was not that he didn¡¯t want to pay her 4 billion dors. If it was a wedding gift for Cassandra, he wouldn¡¯t hesitate even if was ten times more than that. He didn¡¯t understand why it was turned into a deal. It could be an opportunity to get closer to Cassandra. Darren said coldly, ¡°Vincent, we can¡¯t be family with Cassandra. Since there is no way to do it. Let¡¯s give it up. Transfer 4 billion dors with your brother to her now. Take it as her wedding gift.¡± He was now a disabled man sitting in a wheelchair. All the doctors didn¡¯t know how to cure him. The doctor said if he wanted to stand up again, he must find Dr. Quirke. That was why he gave up. He would rather be disabled forever than beg Cassandra. He couldn¡¯t be humiliated by her anymore. Chapter 450 Chapter 450 After Cassandra hung up the phone, she felt so irritable that she couldn¡¯t fall asleep. When Keh appeared in the room with breakfast, he noticed it and hurriedly put the te on the coffee table and walked to Cassandra. He sat behind her and hugged her. He asked, ¡°What happened? What makes you upset?¡± He could immediately find it if she was unhappy and if her mood had changed. He knew Cassandra was not the kind of person who hid their emotions well. She was also spoiled by Blossom. She only changed after Blossom left. The tragedy in her previous life made her always look solemn and even aloof. However, she was the easiest person to let her guard down in front of people she loved. If she hid her emotions, he wouldn¡¯t be able to find it. Cassandra said, ¡°Harper is missing and Vincent wants me to help him find Harper.¡± Keh was silent. He didn¡¯t expect Darren would dare to disturb Cassandra again. It seemed that what Keh had done was not enough, otherwise, Darren wouldn¡¯t have done it. Keh said, ¡°If you don¡¯t want to do it, just refuse him. It¡¯s normal if you still can¡¯t find Harper after you get the money.¡± He didn¡¯t care about others. Since Cassandra felt agitated, he thought Darren should make up for it. 4 billion dors would be just right. ¡°No need. He just wants Harper¡¯s whereabouts. I¡¯ll just give it to him.¡± Cassandra snorted coldly, ¡°Harper wants to escape from that ce and he even wants to kill himself. Darren loves his son so deeply. He won¡¯t just watch Harper leave him and do nothing about it. I think it is better to watch them on war.¡± Cassandra knew Harper was innocent, as innocent as she was. But when everyone med everything on her, no one was innocent, including Harper. If there was no hatred between them, perhaps she would also have a brother who loved her very much. Unfortunately, things couldn¡¯t be redone. 1/5 A Chapter 450 Soon, she heard the sound of notification. She just received 4 billion dors that Darren promised her. Cassandra snorted coldly and wanted to get out of bed to start to work. But she copsed on the ground as soon as shended on the ground. Fortunately, Keh quickly carried her. Keh carried Cassandra up in his arms and said dotingly, ¡°Be careful. Where do you want to be? I¡¯ll carry you there.¡± Cassandra thought he soundedcent. Cassandra red at Keh and snorted, in anger and embarrassment, ¡°Humph, you look comcent?¡± Keh raised his eyebrow and said, ¡°Yes, a little bit. But isn¡¯t it my duty to serve my wife?¡± He didn¡¯t want to get punished so he said something nice. Recently, every time he chatted with Eddie, Eddie talked about what had happened between Eddie and Lydia. Eddie said because he had crossed the line Lydia couldn¡¯t get out of bed for three days so Lydia forbade him to get into her room for a week. To prevent such a horrible thing from happening, Keh decided to coax his wife. He was afraid that Lydia would inspire her in a bad way. He would be damned if he couldn¡¯t enter her room. Cassandra raised her eyebrow and said proudly, ¡°Take me to the study. I want to find out Harper¡¯s whereabouts.¡± Keh said, ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll carry you there.¡± His smile did not fade. Obviously, he had been very happy these days. Keh carefully put Cassandra on a chair in the study, turned on theputer for her, and went back to his room to bring her breakfast. When he returned, he noticed that Cassandra¡¯s face had be serious and she kept typing. He could tell that the situation might not be optimistic. 2/5 A She frowned for a long time and soon her face softened. It seemed that she had solved the problem. Keh picked up a bowl and sat next to Cassandra. He fed her spoon by spoon. He looked skilled but it was a mystery how he learned it. Cassandra opened her mouth and then he fed her. It repeated countless times. Everything seemed peaceful. It didn¡¯t take long before the bowl was empty. Cassandra suddenly said, ¡°I found him.¡± It was a little bit difficult but not very much. This time, Harper¡¯s whereabouts were deeply covered so none of them could find him. Keh was also curious. ¡°Really? Where is Harper?¡± Cassandra said, ¡°He has been in the southeast for a week.¡± Cassandra looked at the location on the screen with great interest and smiled gently. As the king of a country, he stayed in the southeast and didn¡¯t want to return home. She wondered how much Harper had spent to coach such a talent who could hide him from Darren. She thought it was really interesting. Cassandra said, ¡°Ken, do you think I should give him a more specific address so that he will spend less time searching for Harper?¡± The southeast was beautiful andrge. So, it took a professional to find someone there. Keh said, ¡°Whatever you like.¡± He always supported her unconditionally. Cassandra smiled and typed a few more times. She sent an address not that specific to Darren and Vincent. After all, she had received 4 billion dors and was willing to send them a message. 3/5 A Chapter 450 Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024. She said, ¡°Nailed it.¡± After saying that, Cassandra leanedzily against Keh. She said, ¡°Ken, let¡¯s have a vacation.¡± She didn¡¯t need to handle everything in person now after all. So, it was possible for her to go on a vacation. Keh said, ¡°Sure, but I will soon take the Falcon Special Operations Force topete with other teams. We may have to get a few months of training. Do you want to go travel now or wait until the competition is over?¡± Cassandra thought for a while. ording to Keh¡¯s physical condition, she thought would not be much fun if they did it now so she decided to wait for him. There was plenty of time anyway. Cassandra thought for a while and finally made a decision. ¡°Then let¡¯s wait for a bit longer.¡± Keh said, ¡°Okay. After we have a wedding at the end of the year, I¡¯ll travel around the world with you.¡± His biggest wish now was to do nothing but travel all over the world with Cassandra. Cassandra tilted her head to the side and looked at Keh in surprise. ¡°Wedding?¡± She didn¡¯t know anything about it. Keh said, ¡°Yeah, we¡¯re already married. I must give you a grand wedding.¡± The wedding was what every girl wanted. He wanted his girl to be the most stunning person in the world. Keh asked, ¡°What kind of wedding do you prefer?¡± Cassandra said, ¡°Whatever you want.¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t seem to be expecting her wedding so she would say yes to whatever Keh nned. 4/5 ?? ?? Chapter 451 Chapter 451 As for whom Darren sent to the southeast to find Harper, it was not Cassandra¡¯s concern. She didn¡¯t care about them anymore. She was just someone selling information. Cassandra took it as her contribution to the country. She donated 2 billion dors to Den to fund the R&D and the other 2 billion dors to Cyrus for charity. Cyrus would be responsible for the whole process and no one could profit from it. In addition, Cassandra somehow joined the chat group of her ss. No one was informed of it before. Even the ss president was confused and thought, ¡®When did I invite Professor Yates to join the group chat?¡® Cassandra informed everyone in the group chat about the dinner this weekend and sent messages to all the other teachers separately. When everyone saw the words ¡°The Urban¡°, they decided to be there even if they needed to change their schedules. Even the principal was invited. In Keh¡¯s words, if Cassandra wanted to invite them for dinner, she might as well invite everyone in the school. The news that Cassandra invited students from the Physics Department to dinner went viral on the campus forum. [Oh my god! It¡¯s the first time I heard that a teacher would treat so many students to dinner. How many restaurants does she need?] [Your little bird didn¡¯t tell you everything? Don¡¯t you know Professor Yates is treating them at the Urban?] [Are you serious? The Urban? You mean the famous one Drieso?] 1/5 A Chapter 451 [Is there another one?] [Professor Yates is sick. I never heard of a professor who invited so many students at one time. Usually, one ss at most. She invited all the students she had taught.] [I want to have dinner there too but my family failed to make an appointment. I didn¡¯t expect Professor Yates to nail it so easily.] [The Urban belongs to Mr. Zelinski? That¡¯s awesome.] [Hahaha. The Urban is not Mr. Zelinski¡¯s. Anyway, it had nothing to do with him. I am not sure if it still stays the same.] [I¡¯d like to exchange my identities with any of her students. Can I do that?] [No wonder my parents said they would take me to the Urban for dinner on the weekend but it was canceled. The Urban not only fully refunded it but also gave them a Hermes handbag as compensation. How generous!] [I think you are showing off your wealth and I have proof.] [Who knows how happy I am as a student in the Physics Department? LOL!] [The GOAT, Professor Yates!] [Don¡¯t you think she is showing off her wealth by Inviting so many people to have dinner in the Urban?] [You¡¯re just envious. Thest one who did things like that hasn¡¯t been able to return home yet. Besides, Professor Yates doesn¡¯t have to show off her wealth. Everyone knows she is super rich.] When Sofia and Cassidy saw this, they were a little bit upset. They thought she was no longer their idol because she invited others to dinner without them. Sofia was lying in the dormitory, feeling depressed. Even Cassidy looked bad. Cassidy wondered if Cassandra had forgotten them. It had been a year since Cassandra graduated. During the past year, Cassandra barely 2/5 A This content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org. Chapter 451 visited them and didn¡¯t even invite them to her birthday party. The only thing that was a bitforting was that no one in the school went to Cassandra¡¯s birthday party, including the principal. But Cassidy thought they werepletely different from the others. When Sofia was still depressed, her phone rang. It was a call from Cassandra. Sofia was so excited that she almost jumped up. But when she answered the phone, she had calmed down and she said tly, ¡°Hello.¡± Cassandra said, ¡°Sofia, are you and Cassidy going to the Urban City on Saturday night to have dinner with us?¡± Sofia snorted, ¡°My dear idol, it seems you don¡¯t remember our existence until now.¡± Cassandra was silent for a while. She felt embarrassed. At first, she only intended to invite students from the Physics Department. However, Keh said that she might as well invite all the teachers and professors from other departments. The professors would eat on the third floor and the students would be on the first floor and the second floor. Anyway, they would have the same food. So, Cassandra was not worried. That was why she was just reminded of Sofia and Cassidy. She called Sofia immediately after that. Cassandra said, ¡°Sorry, I¡¯ve been very busy.¡± Sofia said, ¡°That¡¯s not necessary. We will show up there.¡± Sofia was relieved at once but Cassidy still looked a little depressed. In the past year, Cassidy had changed a lot, whether in terms of grades or personal life. She looked more and more like Cassandra. It seemed that she had been learning to behave like Cassandra. Sofia said, ¡°Cassidy, she has called me. Why are you still unhappy?¡± She was a little bit 3/5 Chapter 451 confused. She wondered what was going on with Cassidy and why she was not over it. Sofia really didn¡¯t want Cassidy to have another fight with Cassandra. Cassidy smiled bitterly, ¡°Nothing. I¡¯ll be there with you.¡± Then she walked to her desk and began studying. Sofia still thought that Cassidy had been behaving strangely since a year ago. Cassidy was originally just like Sofia. But she had be quiet. She seldom smiled and she seemed to be mimicking Cassandra. Sofia wondered if it was a tribute to Cassandra. Cassidy sat at the desk, took a book about pharmacology, and opened it. There was a photo inside. ***** On Saturday night, Keh arranged a shuttle bus for everyone. So almost all of them arrived at the Urban at the same time. They were amazed the moment they entered the lobby. They thought it was resplendent and magnificent. This decoration style obviously cost a fortune. Soon, Cassandra and Keh appeared. They were all dressed in ordinary clothes, not very luxurious, like they were just attending a random party. Jeremiah asked all the teachers and professors to go to the third floor. The students could take any seat on the first floor or the second floor. Jeremiah had checked that the first floor or the second floor could amodate 1,000 people. So, he didn¡¯t have to worry about if it was big enough. Everyone would find a seat. Cassandra walked to Sofia and Cassidy and said softly, ¡°Do you want to join the students from the Physics Department or go upstairs to join the professors? Professors of traditional medicine are also there.¡± 4/5 D Chapter 451 Sofia shook her head. She said, ¡°I know someone from the Physics Department. I¡¯ll eat downstairs!¡± It would be terrible for her to go upstairs and eat with the professors, more terrible than looking at her parents after failing an exam. She didn¡¯t want to go up there at all. She thought it didn¡¯t matter if she knew anyone on the first or second floor. It didn¡¯t matter to her at all. A happy dinner was more important. Cassandra smiled, ¡°All right, make yourself at home. I¡¯ll go upstairs with Keh.¡± She thought since they knew some students, there was no need to worry about them. Cassidy suddenly took Cassandra¡¯s arm and opened her mouth slightly. Cassandra was confused. ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± She thought, ¡®What is she going to do? Why does she refuse to let me leave now?¡® Cassidy smiled bitterly and shook her head. ¡°Nothing. I just want to congratte you. When is the wedding?¡± Cassandra said softly with a knowing smile, ¡°It probably will be at the end of the year.¡± Chapter 452 Chapter 452 Cassidy did a calction secretly in her mind. She wondered if there was enough time. She coughed drily and quickly covered her mouth. Cassandra frowned. She noticed something strange about her cough. Just as she was about to ask, Howard interrupted her. ¡°Professor Yates!¡± Cassandra decided to leave it until a better chance and whispered to Sofia, ¡°Bring Cassidy to Pinehart Mansion tomorrow.¡± Then she left. Cassidy subconsciously wanted to refuse but Cassandra left before she opened her mouth. Sofia was confused. ¡°What¡¯s wrong? What is happening between you two?¡± She thought the atmosphere between them was so weird. Cassidy coughed again. ¡°I¡¯m fine.¡± Sofia also frowned, ¡°What¡¯s wrong with you? You cough a lot. Did you go to the bathroom to cough several times? Are you sick?¡± Cassidy looked fine, not so bad. But she had been coughing a lot recently. It was weird and Sofia noticed she had been doing it since a long time ago. Cassidy red at Sofia. ¡°I¡¯m not sick. Don¡¯t say something so auspicious. My throat is a bit annoying.¡± Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024. Sofia thought Cassidy¡¯s ears were so sensitive. Sofia asked, ¡°But it seems that you have been coughing for a long time. Why didn¡¯t you go to see a doctor?¡± This question bewildered Cassidy. Cassidy thought, ¡®Why does she have so many questions? I can¡¯t let her notice anything strange. 1/5 Chapter 452 ¡®Otherwise, I will feel sick because she is way too annoying.¡® Cassidy thought she didn¡¯t have much time so she had to catch up with Cassandra quickly in the field of traditional medicine. So, Cassidy couldn¡¯t waste more time. She couldn¡¯t stop. Sofia could only manage thepany if she couldn¡¯t concentrate on her studies more. She would never be a traditional medicine practitioner if she kept this way of studying. Cassidy pretended to be rxed. ¡°I did but it came back from time to time. The doctor can¡¯t find anything wrong so I don¡¯t want to do it again. I won¡¯t die anyway.¡± Sofia couldn¡¯t help but scold Cassidy. ¡°Bullshit! You¡¯re learning to be a traditional medicine practitioner. Don¡¯t you know there must be something wrong with this kind of cough? Have you really been learning?¡± She thought, ¡®Why doesn¡¯t she care about her own health at all?¡± Cassidy said, ¡°I¡¯m fine. I had an examinationst month and there was nothing wrong.¡± Sofia was still suspicious. Someone saw them and couldn¡¯t help but say, ¡°Guys,e and have dinner with us!¡± Sofia said, ¡°Thanks, we¡¯ll be there soon!¡± So, she left it for the time being. For the first time, Cassandra willingly walked around the dinner tables to see if everyone was eating and whether they liked the food. She said to everyone, ¡°Thank you very much for being here and thank you for your blessings. I¡¯ve received all of them and I saw your names. Thank you so much. I put all the gifts in my room and I like every one of them.¡± She thought she had be emotional. She went to the first floor and then to the second floor to express her gratitude. On the third floor, it seemed that all the professors had been waiting for Cassandra and Keh. 2/5 A Howard got up first but he didn¡¯t speak to Cassandra. Instead, he said to Keh, ¡°Mr. Zelinski, when I first met Professor Yates, she was still in Roond Vige. She was a smart girl, but at that time, she was quiet. It seemed that Blossom had just passed away so she was unhappy. A little boy protected her well. ¡°I stayed in Roond Vige for half a month and I found many children would ask her questions. Even if she didn¡¯t know how to answer their questions, she would know the answer after thinking about it for a while. She was just a girl in primary school. I wanted to tease her by asking about a college¨Clevel physics problem that she had never heard of. ¡°I exined to her the basic knowledge that was required. She not only solved the problem. but also learned the basic logic underneath it. It would be a pity if she didn¡¯t study physics. But I didn¡¯t expect her to have such an achievement in physics. She is only 20. ¡°She can have more achievements but you are married to you. Now she gives a lesson for graduate students and undergraduates each every month.¡± Howard looked depressed. He wanted to tell Keh Cassandra had had a hard time. Howard was not sure if Cassandra could have higher achievement. But his love for her was the same. He thought she should devote herself to the field of physics. He continued, ¡°You should be nice to her and support all her decisions. She is still young so don¡¯t tie her down.¡± He said these, feeling like he was risking his life. After all, Keh sponsored a lot of the university¡¯s research. In other words, the university depended on him. He was afraid that Keh would feel bad and stop funding their research after he scolded him. However, Keh was not angry. He solemnly said, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, will take care of her and support her unconditionally. You are wee to give me any advice on this.¡± Only then did Howard feel relieved. He was scared to death just now. Howard and the others became very happy. It was on weekends so all the professors drank. What surprised the professors more was that when they woke up, the principal told them 3/5 Chapter 452 Keh had invested more money in the university. ***** The next day, Cassandra sent Sofia a message asking her and Cassidy toe to Pinehart Mansion. Cassidy was a little scared and didn¡¯t want to go with Sofia. She thought Cassandra must have found something or Cassandra wouldn¡¯t have asked them to go there. Sofia didn¡¯t overthink it. She dragged Cassidy to Pinehart Mansion. Cassidy thought, ¡®Cassie is very good but she cannot tell that I am ill at a nce, right?¡± When Cassandra saw them, she looked a bit serious and earnest. She said to Cassidy, ¡°Give me your hands.¡± Cassidy refused. ¡°Cassie, I¡¯m fine. Did you hear anything from Sofia? I just had a checkup.st month. It¡¯s okay. No need to feel my pulse.¡± Sofia was a little confused. She didn¡¯t tell Cassandra anything and wondered how Cassandra knew. Cassandra said, in a serious tone that was different from yesterday, ¡°I don¡¯t need anyone to tell me anything. You coughed in front of me yesterday so I knew. I asked to youe here today because I did not want to spoil your mood.¡± Cassidy was speechless. Sofia was surprised by Cassandra¡¯s amazing skills. ¡°Give me your hand.¡± Cassandra said coldly, ¡°No matter how good a machine is, it cannot. detect everything. The problems that you have can¡¯t be solved by traditional medicine practitioners or modern ones. But I probably can help you.¡± As Cassandra spoke, she reached out and grabbed Cassidy¡¯s hand. After about five minutes, Cassandra¡¯s face darkened. 4/5 A Chapter 452 The living room was so quiet that they could have heard a pin drop. Sofia couldn¡¯t help swallowing hard. She asked cautiously, ¡°Is Cassidy all right?¡± Chapter 453 Chapter 453 Cassandra¡¯s face grew a bit colder with every word she said. ¡°She¡¯s okay. She won¡¯t die in about half a year.¡± Cassidy withdrew her hand, looking embarrassed and a bit upset. Sofia didn¡¯t believe what she just heard. Sofia thought Cassandra was joking and didn¡¯t believe what Cassandra just said. Sofia said, ¡°Are¡­ are you kidding? Cassidy is only 21. How can she just have half a year to live?¡± The corners of Cassidy¡¯s mouth twitched slightly. She didn¡¯t expect Cassandra to be so skilled. She thought she couldn¡¯t catch up with Cassandra forever. Cassandra was angry but she didn¡¯t even know why. She said, ¡°Am I kidding? Ask her.¡± She thought, ¡®I shouldn¡¯t have been so angry with someone who doesn¡¯t care about herself.¡® Sofia stared at Cassidy with eyes wide open. ¡°Is it true?¡± Cassidy nodded nkly. It was useless to deny it anyway. Sofia shouted, ¡°Cassidy, what¡¯s wrong with you? Why didn¡¯t you tell me? What did the doctor say?¡± She thought, ¡®What¡¯s her problem?¡± Cassidy said, ¡°The doctor said I had lung cancer but it¡¯s different from ordinary ones. It developed faster. It took me only half a year to go from stage II to stage IV. I depend on drugs now so I cough a lot.¡± She seemed to feel relieved. She added, ¡°That¡¯s all. I have to face it anyway.¡± She pretended to be rxed. She had spent a lot of time with Sofia in the past year but she rarely saw Cassandra. She just wanted to spend more time with them while she still had some time. 1/6 A Chapter 453 She thought she wouldn¡¯t be there to witness Sofia¡¯s wedding. So, she wanted to witness Cassandra¡¯s. Sofia¡¯s eyes were full of tears. She thought, ¡®Why did she hide from us?¡® Sofia wanted to hit Cassidy but she couldn¡¯t. She said, ¡°Why did you do this to us? Why didn¡¯t you tell us earlier?¡± Sofia said anxiously, ¡°Let¡¯s go to Whitecrane Hall and beg Hugo and Dr. Quirke for help. Although the doctors can¡¯t help, Dr. Quirke must know how to cure you.¡± This was the only way she coulde up with now. She thought if they couldn¡¯t find Dr. Quirke, there was no hope. Cassidy warned her, ¡°No way. Have you forgotten Dr. Quirke¡¯s rules?¡± Dr. Quirke didn¡¯t allow anyone to disturb Hugo and Dr. Quirke charged a lot. Although Cassidy¡¯s family could afford it, her father seemed not very willing to pay for it so she did not want to quarrel with them on this issue. Sofia cried even more desperately. Cassandra frowned. She thought, ¡®Didn¡¯t I tell them who I really was? No way.¡± Cassandra coughed in embarrassment and said, ¡°Dr. Quirke can treat you for free.¡± Sofia immediately grabbed Cassandra¡¯s hand as if she had seen her savior. ¡°Really? Is Dr. Quirke really going to save Cassidy?¡± Keh suddenly went downstairs and saw Sofia grabbing his wife¡¯s hand excitedly. His eyes darkened. He didn¡¯t want toe out at first but Sofia¡¯s voice was so loud that even the soundproof study couldn¡¯t absorb it. So, he came out to have a check on them. Cassandra nodded. 2/6 A Chapter 453 Cassidy was also a bit excited and even couldn¡¯t believe it. ¡°Cassie, you¡­¡± Cassandra interrupted her coldly. ¡°Don¡¯t bother to find Dr. Quirke. Ask me.¡± Because she was the Dr. Quirke. There was no need for them to find anyone else. They could directly ask for her help. Cassandra said, ¡°I¡¯m Dr. Quirke. I am right by your side but you kept it from me for a whole year. Cassidy, well done.¡± Cassandra said thest two words coldly, even gritting her teeth. She sounded like she wanted to beat Cassidy up. Cassidy suddenly stood up and her eyes widened in disbelief. She thought, ¡®Is she serious? ¡®I have been looking for Dr. Quirke for a year but now Cassandra is telling me she is Dr. Quirke! ¡®She is my friend! ¡®Why hasn¡¯t this idea ever shed through my mind?¡± Sofia opened her mouth in surprise. She murmured, ¡°Dr. Quirke?¡± She thought, ¡®What a fantastic world! ¡®My idol is Dr. Quirke? ¡®No way! This is sick. What else is out of my idol¡¯s limitation? ¡®No, I don¡¯t think this kind of thing exists.¡¯ R¨ºAdt??St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only She thought Cassandra could graduate because she learned a lot of knowledge about traditional medicine. Chapter 453 She thought Cassandra was the kind of skilled doctor who could run a hospital. She never thought Cassandra was a legendary doctor. She thought it was even out of any human being¡¯s limitation. Cassandra nodded. ¡°Yeah. ¡°Tell me what medicine you¡¯re taking and all the history records. I¡¯ll study them for, a few days and make a treatment n for you.¡± Anyone whom she wanted to keep alive wouldn¡¯t die. Besides, Cassidy was only 21 years old, just one year older than Cassandra. She was in her prime time. Cassidy burst into tears with excitement. ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll find them after I get back home.¡± She thought she had hope. She wondered why it was Cassandra who saved her every time. She used to be arrogant but Cassandra beat her with her real strength and made her look mediocre. Now, it was Cassandra again. When she was about to die, Cassandra helped her again. She thought, ¡®How can I repay her?¡± After Cassidy and Sofia left, Cassandra leaned in Keh¡¯s arms and sighed, ¡°I think the Hansen family can afford Dr. Quirke¡¯s treatment. Why haven¡¯t I heard anything about it?¡± If Cassandra had been informed of it earlier, Cassidy would probably have been cured. She shouldn¡¯t have reached the fourth stage, which basically meant death: Keh said, ¡°The head of the Hansen family is Cassidy¡¯s father, but this man loves money so much that he uses half thepany¡¯s assets to save his daughter. This is 476 Chapter 453 worse than digging up his flesh.¡± Cassandra snorted coldly, ¡°What¡¯s the use of so much money if you can¡¯t even take care of your family?¡± Cassandra thought, ¡®If I had had that much money, Blossom might not have died and could live healthy now. She wouldn¡¯t have died because I didn¡¯t have enough time. ¡®What on earth is he thinking about? ¡®Isn¡¯t life more important than money?¡® 00-01 Kehforted her. ¡°Don¡¯t think about him. You will treat Cassidy anyway. Stop thinking about the Hansen family.¡± But in fact, he had already asked people to attack the Hansen family. He thought since Cassidy¡¯s father was not willing to spend money on his daughter, he¡¯d better go bankrupt. Cassandra had made up her mind. ¡°No, I can¡¯t swallow it. I remember the Hansen family is doing business in the traditional medicine industry!¡± Keh said, ¡°Yes.¡± Cassandra said, ¡°I¡¯ll call Jeremiah.¡± Then she dialed Jeremiah¡¯s number. Keh was speechless. He realized she was as resolute and vigorous as ever. Cassandra said, ¡°Jeremiah, I need you to do something for me.¡± She thought, ¡®If you don¡¯t want to spend money on her, I will make you spend it in another. way!¡® 5/6 Chapter 454 Chapter 454 In the southeast. Vincent and Theodore had been there for three days but they still hadn¡¯t found Harper. They thought the position that Cassandra gave them must be correct. They wondered if Harper changed his location after he knew someone wasing for him. No one expected that Cassandra would help them. Although she provided the correct area. She changed the location from the east to the south. The pace of life was faster in the south and it was a more prosperous area. Theodore and Vincent were also a bit disappointed. If so, they did not know where to find Harper. The southeast was almost asrge as the whole territory of Zosteylor. Only the two of them were looking for him so they didn¡¯t know how long it would take. Moreover, they did not dare to ask the police for help or ask their men in Drieso to help them either. They were afraid that the information would be leaked. People would know the leader of Zosteylor was missing. They couldn¡¯t handle it if that happened. Because those who were coveting Zosteylor would be tempted. However, they couldn¡¯t just keep searching for Harper like this. Vincent said, ¡°Adam, we can¡¯t find him like this. We have to think about what to do.¡± He didn¡¯t want to go on searching for Harper like this. Although they arrived at this ce, they still couldn¡¯t urately locate Harper. Harper must have somehow found an expert. Theodore said, ¡°I¡¯m also trying to figure it out. We can¡¯t keep doing this. We have four days left. If we can¡¯t find Harper, I may not be able to hide it from Dad.¡± R¨ºAdt??St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only 1/5 A Theodore was worried that everyone would suspect if the leader of a country was missing any longer. Vincent said, ¡°Well, I don¡¯t know what happened to him. He left without saying anything to us.¡± He felt a bit helpless. He thought, ¡®This guy is getting more and more capricious.¡¯ Theodore said suspiciously, ¡°Maybe we pushed him too hard.¡± For more than a year, Harper felt depressed and didn¡¯t evenugh or smile. If he went on like this, he would have a psychological breakdown if not mentally ill. Vincent said, ¡°I don¡¯t understand it. Why did Dad cut ties with Cassie? He missed her before he found her. Why did he do this? Harper never looked happy after he came back. from Clusia. Didn¡¯t Dad ever reflect on what he had done?¡± He had been thinking about this for a year. Now there were only him and Theodore so there was no need to hide his thoughts. Theodore said, ¡°They directly made it public against Cassie¡¯s will, which forced her to hurt Mom. Otherwise, why was Mom in aa as soon as she came back? If Mom had been awake, Harper would have been at least free. But now¡­ Only Harper is her biological child. Who ascend the throne if not him?¡± Theodore had investigated it secretly before so he knew everything. They had promised to stop pestering her. Even though they just wanted to beg for her forgiveness, they should have found a better way. Now though Cassandra never visited the Yates family, she would greet politely them when she met them. She was already much less cold to them. Even though they couldn¡¯t make any progress, it was not bad. However, Darren and his wife had gone too far. No one could ept it. If it had been Theodore, he wouldn¡¯t ept it. In other words, Harper and Cassandra¡¯s tragedies were due to their father Darren. 2/5 A Chapter 454 However, Darren had saved Theodore and Vincent so Theodore couldn¡¯t go against his will. Unexpectedly, someone beside them heard all the conversation between Theodore and Vincent. Afterward, he didn¡¯t say anything but nced at them and then left. Vincent suddenly turned his head back and looked around in surprise. Theodore asked, ¡°What¡¯s happening?¡± Vincent said, ¡°I felt like someone was staring at us but I didn¡¯t see anyone.¡± He became more and more curious about it. So, he took out hisputer and hacked into the surveince system of this store. After watching the videos for a few minutes, he found a man wearing a mask sitting behind them. It seemed that he left after he heard all of their conversation. In the surveince video, that man raised his head a little and then left. Theodore was surprised. ¡°Stop!¡± Then the video stopped at a frame where the man just got up. Theodore shouted, ¡°It¡¯s Harper!¡± They got out of the store to catch up with the man but they couldn¡¯t find him. Vincent and Theodore looked at each other and Theodore said, ¡°It seems that he is avoiding us.¡± Vincent nodded firmly. ¡°Bastard! When we find him, I will definitely teach him a good lesson.¡± Suddenly, a little girl walked up to them and asked in a childish and sweet voice, ¡°Are you Theodore?¡± The little girl was so young. She looked back at her mother first and then remembered Theodore¡¯s name. 3/5 Theodore squatted down and said, ¡°Yes. How did you know, little gal?¡± The little girl handed him the Post¨Cit note. ¡°A big boy asked me to give you this.¡± Then she left and went to her mother. Theodore stood up and saw the note: [If you don¡¯t want me to die, leave here as soon as possible.] Vincent and Theodore¡¯s expressions changed dramatically. They wondered what was going on. But when they turned around, they found that even the girl was gone. After reading the Post¨Cit note, Vincent was silent for a while and he didn¡¯t look well. He said, ¡°Let¡¯s go back to the hotel.¡± Theodore nodded. At the same time, Jeremiah was making a great effort to find out if there were loopholes in the cooperation n with the Hansen family. Although he could terminate the contract directly, he had to pay liquidated damages. He didn¡¯t want to pay any money. So, he had to find out if there were loopholes. These loopholes would be found as long as he wanted to. He didn¡¯t care about them before but now he had to. Otherwise, he would have to lose money. He med it all on ine and wished she could spare him in the future. It was not easy for him to get some rest. After Keh had a good rest, he would be training. But now he couldn¡¯t even get some rest before that. He thought he had to ask her forpensation. Hugo also came to help him. He not only wanted to check the contracts between Whitecrane Hall and the Hansen family but also to find out whether there was cooperation 4/5 A Chapter 454 between Whitecrane Hall and the Hansen family¡¯s business partners. He had to find out all of them and threaten them. It was not an easy task to force the Hansen family to pay 1 billion dors. Hugo didn¡¯t understand what was happening. He said, ¡°Jeremiah, why did she ask you to cooperate with them? What is she going to do?¡± Jeremiah said, ¡°Actually, ine wants to take revenge for her good friend. She has a friend at school who is sick and the doctor can¡¯t cure her. Her family has money to hire Dr. Quirke but his father doesn¡¯t want to do so because he is a money¨Cgrubber. ine learned it and offered free treatment but she wants her friend¡¯s father to lose some money.¡± Hugo thought, ¡®It exins a lot. She is a nice person so she vents her anger about her friend on her friend¡¯s father!¡± Chapter 455 Chapter 455 C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org Hugo basically knew what had happened. He thought, ¡®So it is because Ms. Yates got angry. She should teach that man a lesson.¡¯ When Sofia followed Cassidy to return to the dormitory, she hurriedly asked Cassidy to sort out all the medical reports and the medicines the doctors prescribed Cassidy. Only then did Sofia find that Cassidy had hidden her disease from them for so long. Meanwhile, she felt a bit guilty that she didn¡¯t notice it at all before. ¡°Are those all your medical reports? Did you keep them well?¡± Sofia reminded. ¡°Yes. As a medical student, I still have this awareness.¡± Cassidy¡¯s tone became different, not as calm as before. Cassidy walked to her desk and opened a pharmacology book that she had been reading recently. She took out a photo. In the photo were three people, Sofia, Cassandra, and her. They took it during their freshman year. Because there didn¡¯t seem to be a photo of them three in the photo album on her phone. Cassidy printed this one out in the end. At the sight of the photo Cassidy took out, Sofia felt a surge of mncholy that she had just suppressed not long ago. ¡°Cassidy, you¡¯ve gone too far. Why didn¡¯t you tell me? Will you still hide it from us if Cassandra hasn¡¯t found that you are sick? Are you going to hide it from us until you die? Sofia cried bitterly. Sofia didn¡¯t expect Cassidy who always bickered with her since childhood to be ill. They despised each other sometimes, but they were each other¡¯s good friends. No matter how arrogant Cassidy was, if anything happened to her, it would always be Sofia who came to help her. This might be friendship. 1/5 A Chapter 455 Since Sofia knew Cassidy had hidden the truth that she was sick from her, she felt mncholy. ¡°Of course not. I want to live longer.¡± Cassidy was very happy to know that Cassandra could save her. Cassidy thought it would be a happy thing that she could spend thest days with her best friends even if she couldn¡¯t recover in the end. ¡°Humph, if you had known this earlier, your disease wouldn¡¯t have been so serious!¡± Sofia sniffed and couldn¡¯t helpining. Sofia thought, ¡®Why didn¡¯t she have such a thirst for life before? Now, she wants to live longer. Did she just ept her fate before?¡¯ ¡°Pack up those things quickly. Let¡¯s go to Pinehart Mansion,¡± Sofia reminded. They needed to give those things to Cassandra as soon as possible. Sofia thought Cassidy would be fine in the end since Cassandra said she would cure Cassidy. Cassidy, however, hesitated at the moment. She flinched while holding the things in her hands. ¡°I¡­ I don¡¯t want to go.¡± ¡°Why?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t have any money. My father only gave me living expenses and money for medicine, which are not enough for Dr. Quirke to cure me.¡± Cassidy also wanted to treat her disease. She was happy to know that Cassandra was Faye, but that wasn¡¯t the reason why she could get free treatment from Cassandra. At least, she would feel guilty in her heart. Sofiapsed into silence. ¡°Let¡¯s not think too much. We can ask her to cure you first. Take the medical fee as an installment loan. When we go to workter, we can make money together and settle the bill slowly.¡± Sofia also didn¡¯t want to ask Cassandra to give Cassidy free treatment. 2/5 A Chapter 455 But Cassidy¡¯s disease had to be treated. Cassidy was still a little hesitant. Sofia didn¡¯t bother to waste time with her, so she directly grabbed the things and dragged Cassidy out of the room. When Cassandra got Cassidy¡¯s medical reports, she took a look at them. Cassandra frowned and began to read all the documents. Half an hourter, her brows rxed. Sofia couldn¡¯t help but ask, ¡°Cassandra, how is it? Can you cure her?¡± Cassandra nodded. ¡°Yes, but it¡¯s a little tricky.¡± She nced at Cassidy and said, ¡°If you had told me six months ago, you would have been healthy now.¡± Cassidy¡¯s disease had entered stage IV, so the treatment would be much more difficult than before. In addition, her lung problem was indeed different, which would also make the treatment more difficult. Even so, Cassandra knew that she could cure Cassidy. It was just that it would cost more time. ¡°Why is it a bit tricky? We will cooperate with you!¡± Sofia immediately said. ¡°I have a lot of precious herbs at home. As long as you need it, I can bring over whatever I have.¡± Sofia was not rich, so she wanted to provide some herbs Cassandra was stunned. ¡°You may not have the herbs I need,¡± said Cassandra. But she knew Omar had. Cassandra nned to go back and get some. ¡°Cassandra, what can I do for you? My father has a 5¨Cinch wild ginseng. Do you want it?¡± Sofia said eagerly as if she would be sad if Cassandra refused to ept it. Cassandra¡¯s eyes lit up as Sofia hoped. ¡°How much do you want? I¡¯ll transfer it to you.¡± Cassandra had several wild ginsengs about 4 inches, but they were not as precious as a 5- 3/5 A 4/5 Chapter 455 inch one. ¡°No, no need. I¡¯ll go back and get it for you,¡± said Sofia, rubbing her fingers nervously. She then continued, ¡°It¡¯s just¡­ Cassidy and I don¡¯t have much money. Can you charge less for the consultation fee?¡± Sofia was a little embarrassed and worried that Cassandra thought she wanted to make a deal with her. Sofia indeed wanted to exchange the ginseng to pay for a part of the consultation fee, but even if Cassandra refused to ept it, Sofia would still be willing to give the ginseng to Cassandra. Cassandra was stunned. ¡°Didn¡¯t I say no consultation fee?¡± Cassandra began to recall if she had said that. ¡°I know, but you know it is tricky to cure me. All the doctors said it was incurable, but you can do it. I know it will take a lot of medicine and energy. It is already your kindness that you don¡¯t charge me the consultation fee, but I can¡¯t let you spend money on my disease.¡± Cassidy lowered her head, feeling a little guilty. Cassidy came from a rich family, and her father also loved her. Her father would also buy her a luxurious car or a house, but he wouldn¡¯t be willing to do so once it would cost so much money. every year ¡°I have all the herbs I need. Don¡¯t worry. Your disease won¡¯t cost me much. Besides, I provide a free medical consultation Don¡¯t you know that?¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t want Cassidy to feel stressed. ¡°Besides, someone will pay for your medical consultation. I¡¯ll tell youter.¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t n to tell Cassidy for the time being for fear that Cassidy would stop it. Cassidy was a little confused, but Sofia began to fill her mind with imagination. ¡°Humph, the money should be paid by Cassidy¡¯s father. Cassidy¡¯s life is more important than money. If I get sick, my parents will definitely do everything to cure me.¡± When Sofia left, she gave Cassandra a bank card and whispered, ¡°Cassandra, there are 20 million dors in it. I have saved them for so many years. I know that Cassidy¡¯s disease is a bit troublesome. I will continue to save money in the future. Cassidy is my friend. Can 7 Chapter 455 you take it?¡± Sofia put it down on the table and left. Cassandra was lost for words. She held the bank card and didn¡¯t know what to say. Looking at the confused look in Cassandra¡¯s eyes, Keh couldn¡¯t helpughing, He said, ¡°You have two reliable friends.¡± Keh thought they had a sense of proportion and gratitude. Even though they didn¡¯t have much, they were willing to give them all as long as it could help their friends. Keh then thought of his friendship with Kayden and John. Keh also felt grateful to Kayden. If it were not for Kayden, Keh wouldn¡¯t have had more chances to get along with Cassandra back then. Cassandra nodded and put down the card. ¡°I¡¯ll give it back to her next time.¡± ¡°Honey, you¡¯ve spent all your energy on your friends today. Shouldn¡¯t you take some time to apany me?¡± Chapter 456 Chapter 456 Cassandra immediately became rmed. She thought, ¡®What does he mean? It had been only a day!¡® Cassandra felt Keh¡¯s request was unreasonable. Cassandra had a peaceful sleepst night, and it was because Keh came backte after he had dinner with the professorsst night. It had not been long since Cassandra and Keh had sexst time. Cassandra thought, ¡®It is no more than 24 hours from the time west had sex. How could hein that I should take time to apany him? I¡¯m afraid that I cannot do it again. right now.¡® Cassandra had an urge to run away from home right away. At least she could let her waist have a rest in this way. ¡°Keh, I think we should talk about this thing seriously. You should learn to control your lust, otherwise, it will ruin your health and may harm your sexual function.¡± Cassandra blushed when she finished her words. Because Keh¡¯s face darkened at once. He stared at Cassandra and said, ¡°Are you afraid that I can¡¯t do it?¡± No man could bear such words, and Keh was no exception. No man would like his wife to doubt his sexual function. Keh just wanted to prove his ability at the moment. Cassandra hurriedly exined, ¡°No. That¡¯s not what I meant. I mean, if you do that kind of thing too much, it will lead to sub¨Chealth. To protect your health, I think we can do it every half a month. What do you think?¡± ¡°You¡¯re still worrying about it,¡± Keh smiled yfully. ¡°Honey, I¡¯ll let you know whether I can do it as usual or not.¡± 1/6 Chapter 456 After saying that, Keh picked up Cassandra and went straight upstairs. In the bedroom, Cassandra was put on the bed. When Keh didn¡¯t notice her, Cassandra turned over and stood up. After all, Cassandra was good at fighting. How could she just lie there obediently? Cassandra wanted to fight back. Cassandra knew she had to do something, otherwise, Keh would let his lust take over from his reason. In the past days, Cassandra would feel sore all over when she got up. She was a little scared whenever she thought about it. Seeing Cassandra standing there on the defensive, Keh realized that Cassandra seemed to be guarding against him. Keh said helplessly, ¡°Honey, what are you doing?¡± ¡°I think we can have a fight. The winner shall have the right to tell the other what to do.¡± Cassandra thought it was a good idea. Cassandra would do her bestter. As long as Keh was defeated, she could ask Keh not to touch her for a month. Cassandra didn¡¯t think it was a good thing to have sex every day. Cassandra thought, ¡®What if Keh really develops a sexual function problem¡­ Keh chuckled. ¡°So, you want to fight with me just because you don¡¯t want to have sex with me tonight?¡± ¡°Yes! Let¡¯s fight, and the winner shall have the final say on this matter!¡± Cassandra¡¯s attitude was a little tough. She knew that she had to win. Keh raised his eyebrows and asked, ¡°Are you serious?¡± Cassandra seemed to have an illusion because she saw Keh¡¯s eyes glittering with joy just now. Cassandra thought, ¡®What does he mean? 2/6 A Chapter 456 ¡®Is this what he wants? C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org ¡®It can¡¯t be. ¡®We don¡¯t know who will win. I¡¯m also good at fighting, and not everyone can defeat me. ¡°Of course!¡± ¡°You will obey everything I say and won¡¯tin?¡± Keh thought he could fight for what he wanted. Keh had been longing to try something new with Cassandra¡­ ¡°What do you mean?¡± Cassandra was a little confused. ¡°I mean what if you get angry and refuse to talk with me, or you go back on your words after you lose?¡± Keh felt that his concerns were very necessary. He was afraid that Cassandra would get angry if she lost in the end. He didn¡¯t know whether he should do something to make her happy again or ask her to fulfill the bet. Therefore, he thought he had to make it clear in advance. Although he knew Cassandra was not that kind of person, he was still a little worried¡­ Cassandra pretended to be angry. She red at him. ¡°You don¡¯t believe me?¡± Keh said in a hurry, ¡°You misunderstand me.¡± ¡°Then cut the crap. Don¡¯t worry. What you said will not happen. The winner shall have the final say on whether to do it tonight. Neither of us can go back on our words,¡± Cassandra said in a serious tone. However, Cassandra underestimated a man¡¯s determination to.fight for what he wanted. Cassandra and Keh went to the room on the third floor. The room was spacious as it was used for indoor exercise. It was a good ce for them to have the fight. At the beginning of the fight, it seemed to be a close contest. Cassandra felt that if she held on for a while, she would win or at least draw. However, the result was very frustrating. She almost fell to the ground in the end. 3/6 A Chapter 456 Fortunately, Keh gently held her waist to prevent her from falling and getting hurt. Keh was smart. He didn¡¯t give Cassandra a chance tounch an attack when she was in his arms. Keh smiled yfully and said, ¡°Honey, you lost. I¡¯m the one who has the final say now.¡± Keh was excited at the thought of it. Finally, he could make Cassandra listen to him. These days, Keh had restrained himself a lot because he worried that Cassandra would dislike it. Keh recalled what Eddie said before and thought it indeed made sense. Lust would inevitably arise when a man stayed with the woman he loved and he would involuntarily feel happy when doing it with the woman he loved. Keh thought, ¡®I¡¯m experiencing it now. It¡¯s wonderful.¡¯ Keh really enjoyed it. Cassandra, however, was lying on the ground motionlessly, trying to recall the fight just now, in an attempt to find out why she lost in the end. The fight onlysted for fifteen minutes. Cassandra didn¡¯t expect her to lose so soon. Cassandra thought, ¡®Why am I so weak now?¡® ¡± Cassandra felt something was wrong and was reluctant to face her loss. ¡°Honey, you¡¯re very strong. Yannick, Lamont, and Kayden can only hold on for 20 minutes when they fight with me together. It¡¯s already awesome that you can fight for 15 minutes.¡± Keh praised Cassandra. Keh thought, ¡®My wife is awesome. She could fight with me for 15 minutes. I Fortunately, she is a little tired these days, otherwise, I am afraid that I might not have the chance to defeat her easily.¡± The disparity in strength between the two led Keh to have such a conclusion. 4/6 A Chapter nou He knew the fight would end in a draw if he gave Cassandra two days to recover to her best state. Cassandra didn¡¯t want to talk. She tilted her head and looked at the treadmill next to her. Cassandra felt that she had been cking off on her exercise. She was known as a warrior who was good at fighting, but now she felt she was losing the honor. Keh picked Cassandra up and said softly, ¡°Honey, you lost. Just let me decide what we should do tonight, okay? Don¡¯t worry. It won¡¯t exhaust you.¡± Cassandra, however, snorted in her heart. She thought, ¡®You¡¯d better be serious about your words.¡¯ Keh only felt Cassandra was lovely when she was silent with a sullen face. He even wanted to tease her again. When they went downstairs, William and Susan saw that Cassandra was carried down by Keh. They hurriedly lowered their heads because they thought it was not suitable for them to watch. William was stunned. He thought, ¡®Gee. So, they did it in the room for indoor exercise. How crazy! ¡®Mrs. Zelinski looks tired. ¡®Tsk, what a monster. ¡®s, young people nowadays are really energetic and fond of fun. I¡¯m indeed old. William then said to Susan beside him, ¡°I bought some fresh ingredients today. You can cook some nutritious food for Mrs. Zelinskiter. She needs nutrition.¡± William thought, ¡®If they do it like this every day, I¡¯m afraid that Mrs. Zelinski will feel exhausted every day. Mr. Zelinski should learn to control his lust.¡± Chapter 457 Chapter 457 The next day, Keh was dealing with things in the study at noon. She thought Cassandra would wake upte today, so he didn¡¯t pay special attention to the noise in the bedroom. Keh didn¡¯t know that the bedroom door opened quietly when he was busy with his work. Nor did he know that Cassandra had quietly gone downstairs. When William saw Cassandra, he wanted to greet her but was stopped by Cassandra. ¡°Shh.¡± Cassandra said in a low voice, ¡°Just pretend you haven¡¯t seen me!¡± Cassandra knew she couldn¡¯t stay here. Cassandra ran away soon. William was stunned and wondered what had happened. But he soon understood why Cassandra ran away because he didn¡¯t see Kehing down. William thought, ¡®Looks like Mrs. Zelinski was frightened by Mr. Zelinski¡¯s endless energy. That is why she ran away from home. After thinking about this, William felt that Cassandra now was much more lovely than before as she always kept an indifferent, expressionless face in the past. Since Keh¡¯s mother passed away, he seldom smiled. He was sullen most of the time, with hatred in his heart. Since Keh met Cassandra, he seemed to have changed and became less aloof and distant. After he controlled those who fought against him in the Zelinski family, he sent them all to a special remote prison near the border. Those who were sent there would. never have a chance toe out. 1/6 A Chapter 457 Therefore, they could only live in the ghostly prison and would never have a chance to cause trouble for Keh again. William could tell that Keh loved Cassandra with his heart and soul and wanted to live a stable life with Cassandra. William was also happy that both Keh and Cassandra were very human now. William felt Keh and Cassandra might have a child next year. Thinking of this, William felt happy. After finishing his work, Keh nned to go back to the bedroom to see if Cassandra was awake. However, he didn¡¯t see Cassandra in the bed and the bathroom. Keh went downstairs in a hurry and found that Cassandra was not there, too. He asked Susan, ¡°Susan, have you seen Cassie?¡± ¡°No, I didn¡¯t. She should be still sleeping in the bedroom.¡± Cassandra woke up after noon these days. Therefore, Susan thought she didn¡¯t need to check it and was sure that Cassandra was not awake. Keh¡¯s face darkened. ¡°She is not in the bedroom.¡± At this time, William came in from the outside and saw Keh. ¡°Mr. Zelinski.¡± ¡°Have you seen Cassandra?¡± ¡°Yes, I saw her before,¡± William answered naturally because he thought it was a normal thing. ¡°Where did she go?¡± Keh asked. un away ¡°Well¡­ I don¡¯t know, but Mrs. Zelinski seems to have from home because of you¡­¡± William couldn¡¯t say it in the end. He thought it would be a loss for him if Keh. got angry and deducted a part of his sry as a punishment. William didn¡¯t know how to tell Keh the truth. Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024. 2/6 A Chapin nur Keh was lost for words. He thought, ¡®So the first thing Cassie did when she got up was to run away from home? ¡®I just asked her to do it in the bathroom, or by the window¡­ Well, with some new postures. But she didn¡¯t have to run away from home, did she?¡± Keh chuckled, ¡°Go check the surveince video and find where she went to.¡± Keh decided to let Cassandra have a good rest in other ces. He thought Cassandra would not go far and was probably resting in a ce. Now Keh and Cassandra had to rely on each other, so Keh decided to pick Cassandra up later. Just as Keh thought, Cassandra went to the hotel. But when she was running away from home, she received a call from Lydia, so she told Lydia where she was without hiding anything. When Cassandra arrived on the fifth floor of The Urban, she went straight into her room and asked the waiter to bring her some food. She felt that she should eat something before going to bed, and she was a little hungry. Cassandra thought, ¡®Keh is annoying. He asked me to do it with him in front of that window. How can I face that window in the future? Heck! A man of 30 years old is really energetic and terrible.¡± Cassandra felt that she was unable to cope with Keh¡¯s special requirements. Soon, the waiter sent the food over. Lydia also came. Lydia was a little stunned when she saw Cassandra¡¯s expression. She said, ¡°Your face is ruddy, but why do you look a bit upset?¡± Cassandra had a ruddyplexion at the moment. She looked much better than before except for the dejected look on her face. 3/6 A Chapter ¡°Heck. If I hadn¡¯t run away ande here, I¡¯m afraid that I would be unable to leave that room for a couple of days.¡± Keh was so energetic that Cassandra found she was unable to cope with it. The disparity in strength between men and women could be seen at this moment. At least for now, Cassandra knew that she couldn¡¯t defeat Keh. Besides, she felt that she¡¯d better not have such a match with Keh again. Even if Cassandra could win, she was sure that Keh would do his best to win the match. It would only exhaust Cassandra and she was afraid that she would have to spend more time in bed to rest even if she won in the match. ¡°Ha¨Cha, they are all thirst for sex.¡± Thinking of Eddie, Lydia felt sweet. She continued, ¡°Eddie is the same. When I first got married, I felt like I couldn¡¯t hold on¡­ He didn¡¯t control his lust. But in the end, I found that he was loyal. He only treated me like that, and would not give other women a chance to get close to him.¡± Lydia felt that Cassandra¡¯s situation was simr to that of her when she first got married. She was also exhausted every day at that time. Lydia couldn¡¯t stand it but to resist it with a tough attitude. Itsted for a week. But after that, Lydia found that Eddie wanted sex more. Looking at Cassandra, Lydia knew that no one reminded Keh that he should control his lust¡­ ¡°Have a good rest here. You can¡¯t do anything else to it now, right?¡± Lydia saw the dark. circles beneath Cassandra¡¯s eyes. ¡°I want to stay here for two more days. I think I am good at fighting, butpared with Keh, I am simply a loser!¡± Cassandra slumped in bed and said to Lydia. This should be the first time Cassandra rxed herselfpletely in front of an outsider. ¡°Don¡¯t let a man starve for too long. Otherwise, you will suffer.¡± Lydia advised Cassandral based on her own experience. 4/5 A Cassandra was lost for words. She felt the suggestion didn¡¯t seem to work either. ¡°Have some food first and then sleep. Anyway, there is nothing in thepany now, so you don¡¯t need to worry about it. You can just go to sleep.¡± Lydia handed the tableware to Cassandra and motioned her to get up to eat something. ¡°That¡¯s notforting,¡± said Cassandra listlessly. Lydia didn¡¯t say anything. She was sure that Cassandra would find her words made sense sooner or later. Eddie went on a mission and was not at home. Lydia didn¡¯t stay long as she was worried about her child, so she left directly. When Lydia left, she sent a message to Keh, [Cassie is still young. She can¡¯t stand it if you do it too frequently.] When Keh saw the message, he was lost in thought. Keh thought, ¡°Is that so? ¡®It seemed that I should really reflect on myself. ¡®It can¡¯t go on like this. I only cared about myself these days and didn¡¯t care about ire¡¯s feelings. It is my fault.¡¯ After Keh realized that he was careless these days, he immediately went to The Urban to pick up her wife. When Keh arrived there, Cassandra was still asleep. Keh felt a little sorry for her, so he simply lay down to sleep with her. He thought they could. go back when Cassandra woke up the next day. Chapter 458 Chapter 458 In the morning the next day, Cassandra was awakened by a phone call. It was Vincent. Cassandra¡¯s expression changed. She picked up the phone impatiently, ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± ¡°Cassie, help me. Harper is going to jump off a building!¡± Vincent¡¯s tone was full of anxiety and panic. Cassandra turned over and sat up, somewhat confused about what Vincent said. ¡°What do you mean?¡± ¡°We found Harper. Now we are at Drieso International Airport and ready to go back to Zosteylor, but Harper went to the roof of a building outside the airport when my brother and I were distracted by something else. Now, he wants to jump off.¡± Cassandra could vaguely hear Theodore was persuading Harper. Cassandra frowned. ¡°You should go to the police instead of me for this kind of thing.¡± Cassandra couldn¡¯t save Harper, so she didn¡¯t understand why Vincent called her. Cassandra wondered whether Harper really wanted to die or if he was nning something else. Cassandra didn¡¯t understand why Harper wanted to die. Her life was full of miseries before, but she had never thought about ending it bymitting suicide. Harper was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, and he grew up by his parents¡® side. And he even had a high status. Cassandra thought, ¡®Why does he want to die?¡® ¡°We¡¯ve called the police and cordoned off the scene, but he won¡¯t let anyone get close to him. Whenever we took a step closer, he would raise one of his legs, pretending to jump off the building. I have no choice. You are the reason why he feels guilty now. Can you save him?¡± Vincent kept his eyes on Harper and found that he was now very reserved, even a little afraid of the surroundings. Vincent felt that Harper seemed to develop a mental problem. 1/5 A Chapter 458 ¡°What does it have to do with me?¡± asked Cassandra impatiently. ¡°When my father severed the rtionship with you, Harper was a little strange. He once ran away from home and was then sent back by Keh. Since then, he seldom smiles. This time, it seems to be because of your 20th birthday¡­¡± Vincent exined. Such an exnation was a little unconvincing and even unfair to Cassandra. However, Vincent had no choice now. Otherwise, he would not have called Cassandra for help. ¡°Vincent, are you saying that it¡¯s all my fault?¡± Cassandra¡¯s voice was cold. Vincent was a little stunned. He realized that he had said something wrong. ¡°No. I just want to ask for your help. If you don¡¯t want to persuade him, then I may have to watch him die in front of me.¡± Cassandra hung up the phone directly after hearing that. She thought, ¡®Why does he think that I will go? I owe them nothing, don¡¯t I?¡¯ Keh¡¯s phone rang suddenly. ¡°Hello?¡± ¡°Now?¡± ¡°Okay! Got it!¡± After hanging up the phone, Keh said helplessly, ¡°I have received a mission to save Harper. Otherwise, we all have unshirkable responsibilities in this matter.¡± Keh was about to get up and go to finish the mission. Cassandra looked at him and asked, ¡°What are you going to do?¡± ¡°Maybe I can get close to him secretly and then stop him from jumping off the building. What do you think?¡± ¡°It¡¯s no use. Harper is actually very sensitive, but he doesn¡¯t show it often. If you get close to him, he will find out.¡± Cassandra calmly analyzed the situation for Keh. Although Cassandra was not very familiar with Harper, she knew Harper was not a fool. After all, he was Darren and Leanna¡¯s son. Harper just pretended to be simple and ordinary. Cassandra was sure that Harper was more powerful than she thought.. 2/5 A Chapter 458 For example, both Theodore and Vincent showed amazing hacking skills. Harper was Darren¡¯s biological son, so how could he not know hacking skills? He just didn¡¯t want to show it. Cassandra knew that Harper was hiding something. He lived with a mask. But now Harper didn¡¯t want to live like this, so he used hacking technology to hide his tracks. If Cassandra hadn¡¯t found out that Harper had no one to help him, she might not have realized it. Keh was lost in thought. It was a little tricky, but he had gotten the order that he had to make sure that Harper could return to Zosteylor alive. ¡°I¡¯ll go with you. I¡¯ll help solve the problem.¡± Cassandra knew that she had to go and do something given the current situation. ¡°Okay, if you feel unhappy, you can stop at any time. I think I can do it. It is just to save a man.¡± Keh didn¡¯t want Cassandra to do something she didn¡¯t want to, so he told her in advance that she could quit at any time.. Since Harper didn¡¯t care about his own life, Keh thought there was no need for others to care about him. He thought it was ridiculous. ¡°Okay.¡± Harper sat on the edge of the rooftop and seemed to be watching thendscape below. Harper muttered under his breath, ¡°What a beautiful spring! It is really good. I want to blend with it.¡± ¡°Harper, what are you doing?¡± A familiar girl¡¯s voice sounded behind Harper. Harper looked back in surprise. ¡°Cassie, why are you here?¡± ¡°If I don¡¯te, when are you going toe down or jump?¡± Harper was dumbfounded. He didn¡¯t want to, but he couldn¡¯t control himself. It was not the 3/5 A Chapter 458 first time he wanted to die. However, he hadn¡¯t seen Cassandra yet, so he didn¡¯t choose tomit suicide before. Harper followed Theodore and Vincent to Drieso. He would be satisfied if he could see Cassandra once. Harper felt that he owed a lot to Cassandra, so wanted to pay for that bymitting suicide. ¡°Cassie, I¡¯m sorry. I¡­¡± Harper wanted to say a lot of things, but he couldn¡¯t utter a word now. ¡°I don¡¯t need your apology,¡± Cassandra said coldly. ¡°From the time Darren took Hugo away, we had nothing to do with each other. Later, your behavior can only be described as ¡®excessive¡®. I don¡¯t know what you want to do. Since we have been peaceful for so many years, why not continue it? Why do you want to break it all now? What makes you think that you can move me to change my mind? ¡°What can you rely on to move me? Do you have a shame? You and your brothers appeared in front of me one by one. Why do you act like victims since you had made a choice back then? And in the end, your father served his rtionship with me. Do you think I¡¯m just amodity you can buy and return at any time?¡± Harper wanted to step forward and exin. ¡°No, it¡¯s not like that. It¡¯s not like that. I didn¡¯t. I never had such a thought!¡± ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter now. Your brothers, father, and you had made your choices.

So, I deserved the hardship I went through. afterward. I epted it and I cured you. But you can¡¯t be insatiable. ¡°Since you want to die, you can go back to Zosteylor and die there. Don¡¯t die in Clusia, and don¡¯t die in Drieso. Your death will cause trouble for our country. You are the monarch of Zosteylor, and you should know what you stand for. You cannot die here as you want.¡± Cassandra¡¯s words were ruthless, and every word she said broke Darren¡¯s heart. ¡°So¡­ you¡¯re just worried that my death will bring trouble to Clusia.¡± Harper smiled bitterly. ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter.

I can tell you I am fine and happy now if it is because of me. I would be so d without Darren and Leanna to make me worse. As for you, you should have a normal life instead of thinking about feeling sorry for me. We have missed 20 years of family ties. We need to look ahead. ¡°You are now the leader of a country. It would be best if you thought about how the people of your country developed after the war and how to improve their happiness index instead of holding on to trivial matters like a child. ¡°If you see the leader position as a burden or prison, you should¡¯ve spoken up and protested sooner. What are you going to do now? Darren has only one son. You quit, don¡¯t you know, find someone else to rece you? Do you have to sacrifice your life?¡± Cassandra looked down on people who took their lives lightly. She could kill people, but they must be damned. To her, both Benjamin and Yulissa deserved to die, but she wouldn¡¯t do it openly. She would make them look like they died of natural causes. This content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org. Harper was speechless and tried to refute Cassandra, only to find that she had a point. He couldn¡¯t refute it, but Theodore and Vincent stood silently beside him. Somehow, he felt Cassie aimed at them and wanted to trap them in Zosteylor. ¡°If you still want to die, I despise you. I can¡¯t see that person anymore who swore to stand with the masses during the war, Cassandra¡¯sst words were true. ¡®She dislikes Harper a little, but it is only coteral damage, not that she hates him. At least, she admires him for saying on the battlefield that he wanted to stand with the people of his country and face together.¡± Harper¡¯s expression was somewhat rxed, ¡°Will you look down on me?!¡± Chapter 459 This was not the result he wanted. He wanted to be with Cassie, his only sister; if possible, he would be her pride. However, she just said that if he died like this, she would look down on him. The incident of jumping off a building was broadcast on the Inte. [I¡¯m crying. What kind of siblings are they? Why can¡¯t they recognize, each other?] [I also want to ask: if she doesn¡¯t want to recognize her parents, why can¡¯t she at least recognize her brother? Harper loves her deeply!] [I suddenly feel sorry for Harper. I hated them so much that I thought they were selfish, but now it¡¯s not like that!] [If Cassandra hadn¡¯t been abandoned, she would have had several brothers who loved her dearly. I really hope Harper can get down here as soon as possible.] [I think Cassandra¡¯s got a point. Even if he wants to die, why can¡¯t he do it in Zosteylor? If he dies in Clusia, it¡¯ll spark an international dispute, and we¡¯ll hardly be able to clear our names.] [Are you so cold¨Cblooded? It has nothing to do with Harper. He¡¯s just the chosen one, and he¡¯s innocent.] [I need some rification. Theodore and Vincent couldn¡¯t persuade Harper, but when Cassandra came and said something, Harper¡¯s expression softened.] [I have to say that Cassandra knows Harper, especially in thest sentence. I don¡¯t think Cassandra hates Harper so much. When she looks at him, she¡¯s reminded of their vile parents, Darren and Leanna, which naturally makes her feel a bit disgusted.] [Why forgive? Have you all been through Cassandra? Why stand on the moral high ground? Don¡¯t persuade others to be good if you don¡¯t know it!] [I think you¡¯re right!] Cassandra looked at Harper and then nced at Keh. She didn¡¯t want to get involved with Darren and his family, but Harper seemed as innocent as she was. 2/4 Chapter 459 ¡°If you jump down from here today, I will despise you,¡± Cassandra said bluntly. [Damn it! Why did Cassandra say that? He wants to die, and she even said such words to irritate him. If he died, could she be responsible for it?] [What does Cassandra mean? Does she want to save him or not?] [I¡¯m as confused as you are, but Cassandra isn¡¯t as hard as she seems.] [Do you have a misunderstanding of Cassandra? Why doesn¡¯t she forgive Darren and Queen Stark if she is not hard? Couldn¡¯t she be a happy princess instead of causing trouble everywhere? Now Harper wants tomit suicide, and she¡¯s still here spouting sarcasm!] [Damn it! Did you swallow a dictionary of insults or something? Your mouth is filthier than a gutter! What you¡¯re saying isn¡¯t even in the same league as humannguage!] [If he wants to jump, hurry up! Waste time!] [I think Cassandra is saving Harper. Harper takes Cassandra¡¯s opinion very seriously. The only softening in his attitude was when he asked Cassandra. Can¡¯t you see that? What are you looking at? Are your eyes just decorations?] After Cassandra finished speaking, she looked at Keh, indicating that he could let someone do something. After all, Harper was still standing in such a dangerous ce. They had to let him down as soon as possible. Keh thought it was almost time, so he motioned for everyone to take action. Theodore and Vincent exchanged nces and nervously watched everything that was happening nervously. Harper sensed someone approaching, but at this moment, he didn¡¯t want to resist. He didn¡¯t want to die. He was afraid Cassandra would look down on him, and then his death would be meaningless. 3/4 Chapter 459 Keh¡¯s men pulled him down, and now he was in a safe position. Cassandra looked at Harper anxiously, suddenly stepped forward, and pped him. Everyone present except Keh was shocked! That p was loud and snappy! ¡°Do you think it¡¯s funny? Go back to Zosteylor and fight yourself. Who are you trying to scare here? I don¡¯t have the time or patience to indulge your antics. We¡¯re all grown¨Cups here, so act your age!¡± Cassandra¡¯s face was gloomy. Harper¡¯s lips moved, but no apology escaped them. Cassandra left without looking back, and Yannick, behind Harper, unconsciously touched his own cheek. He thought, ¡°Tsk. If she pped me, it would hurt a lot. Forget it. I¡¯ll bear it in the future, but now is not a good time to mess with Cassandra!!¡± After thanking Keh, Theodore and Vincent left with Harper, While watching the live broadcast, Harper was also¡­ Chapter 460 Chapter 460 Cassandra¡¯s words plunged Darren into deep thought, ¡®Did I do something wrong?

She was the only healthy child. If it weren¡¯t for necessity, I wouldn¡¯t have abandoned her and would love her deeply! Didn¡¯t I regret it after all these years? I also regretted it, but what¡¯s the use of regretting it again?!¡® Darren sat in the wheelchair and looked at Leanna, who had been sleeping for over a year. His heart sank. ¡®How long do you want me to wait for you? If you keep me waiting, I¡¯m going to lose my temper. Cassandra said You will never wake up in your life. I don¡¯t believe it. I want to create a miracle. Wake up quickly, okay? Our kids me me, and you¡¯re the only one who understands me, right?¡® Looking at Cassandra¡¯s words on the channel, Darren realized that Harper hated him. But what could he do? This country belonged to Leanna, so it was only natural for her kin to inherit it. Harper was the only blood rtive now, so who else was there to take it over but him? To Cassandra, she rejected it very much. Even if he screwed up in this life, he had a roll with the punches¨Cthere was no going back in time, after all.. He picked this path himself. Even if he had crawled, he must see it through. ¡°Honey, wake up quickly,¡± Darren suddenly looked at his legs and said bitterly, ¡°Let it be. You may dislike me if you wake up and see me like this. I will apany you forever.¡± Cassandra dives into the car and waits for Keh. After a while, Keh arrived and sat beside her, embracing her tightly. ¡°Honey, don¡¯t be angry, or you won¡¯t look good.¡± 1/5 Chapter 460 Cassandra didn¡¯t care much about it. Although she was angry at the time, that was to let Harper down. She knew the difference between hatred and wouldn¡¯t punish others unfairly. If Harper died because of her, regardless of how unconcerned she appeared, she would carry the guilt in her heart for a lifetime. But¡­ She gazed at Keh and whispered, ¡°Am I ugly to you?¡± Keh was speechless! ¡®Oh, the focus isn¡¯t on that! I meant what I said before¨Cdon¡¯t be angry!¡® ¡°No. I just asked you not to be angry. Being angry is bad for your health,¡± Keh exined and thought, ¡®There must be no misunderstanding. Otherwise, I will catch Harper and give him a good beating!¡® ¡°But I¡¯m not angry, so you are saying me ugly,¡± Cassandra had no intention of letting Keh go. Even though she didn¡¯t care much about her looks, she got angry when her husband said she was not good¨Clooking. Cassandra knew that she was being unreasonable, but it didn¡¯t matter. He would tolerate her anyway. ¡°I was wrong. Honey, forgive me!¡± Keh admitted his mistake very quickly. Eddie said that at this time, as long as he admitted his mistakes, he would be fine! Besides, his wife was so cute that he apologized to her immediately. When Yannick came to report, he happened to hear this and almost lost his footing. He thought, ¡®Is Keh¡¯s status so low after getting married? He apologized so quickly and smoothly!¡®¡± Keh nced at Yannick and asked, ¡°What are you doing?¡± ¡°Oh, Theodore and Vincent have taken Harper back to the hotel and n to return to Zosteylor tomorrow,¡± Yannick was here to report something and watch a good show. 2/5 A Chapter 460 Keh frowned and said, ¡°Send a few people to keep an eye on Harper. You must ensure he returns to Zosteylor safely before your mission ends.¡± As for what happens to Harper after returning to Zosteylor, it¡¯s none of his business. Others would bully any such young leader, and Harper probably will be no different. Yannick nodded to show that he knew. After he left, Cassandra said to Keh, ¡°Since you know it¡¯s wrong, we will sleep¡¯in separate rooms in the next half month.

Now, she just wanted to be happy and have a good rest! ¡®Half a month is okay!¡± she thought. Keh¡¯s face darkened all of a sudden. He asked, ¡°Honey, are you serious?¡± ¡°Yes, let me have a good rest for half a month. I know you will agree, right?¡± Cassandra rarely acted coquettish¨Cher soft and delicate voice made Kehfortable. Keh calmed himself down. He couldn¡¯t be led away by his wife. How could he bear not touching her for half a month? He had already tasted the sweetness of sex; he couldn¡¯t be left alone in an empty room, and it would never happen! Keh shook his head. ¡°No, I don¡¯t agree!¡± His attitude was determined! 3/5 Chapter 460 Cassandra was stunned, ¡°Sure enough, a man can¡¯t be indulged. It has only been one week since we got the marriage license, and then you began to refuse my request?!¡± It was Vanessa who taught her this trick. She thought it would be the best time to use it now. These were all her precious video materials. Surveince cameras at Vanessa¡¯s home asionally recorded the quarrel between her and her husband. Then, Cassandra watched their videos from time to time to see what she needed to be improved. Finally, she realized that her husband responded better to kindness than toughness, so she always spoke to him this way. She was speechless when she saw Vanessa¡¯s arrogant look but still envied her. Keh was silent. His Cassandra wasn¡¯t like this before! He would find out who taught Cassandra badly. He must teach this person a lesson! Wasn¡¯t this affecting the harmony between husband and wife? However, his wife¡¯s learning ability was quite strong. Keh pretended to be pitiful and said, ¡°But Cassie, I have one week left for closed training. It will take me three months. Do you want me to go without any intimate contact for over three months straight?¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t know how to respond. Unbelievable! Keh¡¯s eyes were pleading and showed a hint of longing. ¡°We can talk about thister. I don¡¯t want to talk anymore.¡± Cassandra was reluctant to leave him alone.

Nevertheless, her father mistreated her. At first, her father was kind to her, but he valued money more.

I¡¯m leaving now,¡± Cassandra¡¯s stare didn¡¯t faze Jeremiah. If it were just Cassandra, he would have yed her for 300 rounds, but Keh¡¯s involvementplicates things!! There was a murderous look in his eyes! He felt like a third party interrupting their rest. If he didn¡¯t retreat, Keh might beat him. That look was so terrifying. Didn''t he just say ¡°using me¡°? Didn¡¯t he know what kind of person his wife was? He thought he had to ask Yannick forfort. Otherwise, his little heart could not bear it! Cassandra was caught off guard by Jeremiah¡¯s departure. He had to pat the table before, but why did he leave so obediently today? This was a bit unreasonable! 4/4 Chapter 462 In a blink, a strong arm popped out from behind her and wrapped around her. Tsk, it turned out that Keh was here. He ran away in fear. ¡®I can use this trick next time. When the timees...¡® Cassandra thought. *** Jeremiah felt like someone was whispering ill of him when he got in his car. ¡®Damn it! No way! I¡¯ve left, and you still scold me behind my back! Keh, fuck...!!¡ã After scolding Keh in his heart, Jeremiah felt much happier. But thinking that the 1.2 billion dors would disappear tomorrow, he was sad and drove to find Yannick. 0 During this period, Yannick worked for Keh in thepany except for tasks, but he enjoyed himself at home! Jeremiah thought it was not fair. Jeremiah wondered if Yannick had gotten off work sote. **In the Pinehart Mansion, Keh held Cassandra¡¯s waist from behind and said in a slightly doting tone, ¡°It¡¯ste. Have an early rest.¡± Cassandra¡¯s back tensed up momentarily. She noticed her body bing rigid, apanied by a fresh onset of pain! It was almost PTSD! ¡°I''m not sleepy. I''ll go to bedter,¡± said Cassandra, her voice a bit tense, and her gaze shifting away. She shouted, ¡°Susan, | want to drink soup. Could you cook it now?¡± ¡®lm sorry, Susan. | have to bother you for my waist!¡¯ she thought. ¡®The soup will be stewed for two hours. At that time, it is already midnight. | can drink it and fall asleep immediately.¡¯ Susan smiled and said, ¡°OK. | know you like it, so | have stewed it tonight. It is not hot or cold, and the temperature is right.¡± Cassandra was speechless. She wanted to say dirty words. Kehughed in a low voice. ¡®Cassandra does many things to avoid having intimacy with him. Susan may take at least two and a half hours to stew soup. At that time, it is past one o¡¯clock in the morning. How could | have the heart to do it with her then? But Susan prepared the soup in advance.¡± 2/4 Chapter 462 ¡°| don¡¯t want to drink now,¡± Cassandra was a little depressed, ¡°Susan, go to bed early.¡± Seeing Cassandra¡¯s upset look, Keh felt distressed. ¡°Let¡¯s just sleep tonight, and | won¡¯t do anything. How about it!¡± Cassandra¡¯s eyes lit up, and she asked in disbelief, ¡°Really?¡± ¡°If you said so, I¡¯m unsure if it is true,¡± Keh wanted to tease her. ¡°Then | won''t ask. Let¡¯s go to sleep,¡± Cassandra was instantly happy. It was as if nothing had happened during the day, and no one could have affected her for a long time. ¡°But you have to make it up to me tomorrow night,¡± Keh held Cassandra in his arms and whispered. His voice was so attractive that it made Cassandra¡¯s legs soft. Cassandra was now in a dilemma, not knowing whether to take this step. It was a little tricky. She knew one couldn¡¯t get something for nothing, but he could''ve waited until she got up. She could stay up for a few nights or even stay up all night without sleeping for 65 hours. Now Keh made her sleepless every day! This was terrible! It was a wrong decision to feel sorry for him! ¡°Let''s talk about it tomorrow,¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t want to continue the conversation. After Cassandra had two good nights of sleep, Keh began to think about trying some particr positions at night! The next day, when Cassandra woke up, she received a 1.2 billion dor transfer from Jeremiah, and this guy was crying! But Cassandra ignored Jeremiah. The treatment n had juste out at that time, and she could tell Cassidy. So she called Cassidy and Sofia. When Sofia arrived, she held a special box and put it in front of Cassandra like a treasure. ¡°Cassandra, I''ve brought 3/4 WP. Chapter 462 the wild ginseng with a history of one thousand years. Take a look!¡± Cassandra was stunned and somewhat surprised. She hurriedly opened the box to check, watched it for a long time, and said, ¡°It is indeed a thousand¡ªyear-¡ªold wild ginseng.¡± ¡°That¡¯s fine. | thought someone was lying to my father. Now it is yours!¡± Sofia said generously. She hoped Cassandra could take it and treat Cassidy well! Cassandra shook her head and said, ¡°Name your price. I''ll buy it.¡± It was hard to get, and she wouldn¡¯t take it for granted. It was a little guilty to get something for free. ¡°No, this is your reward for treating Cassidy.

Cassidy and Sofia ignored Cassandra¡¯sst words and asked in unison, ¡°Who paid the consultation fee?¡± Chapter 463 Chapter 463 Chapter 463 Cassandra also took out a bank card and handed it to Cassidy. ¡°There are 1.2 billion dors in this ount, which Is the loss of the Hansen family these days. Whether it¡¯spensation or cooperation money, it¡¯s all here. You keep it well. It¡¯s always right for girls to take more money.¡± She took out Sofia¡¯s bank card yesterday and said, ¡°Take back the money you gave me. | said | don¡¯t need it.¡± Only after Jeremiah suppressed the Hansen family did she realize that although Soren loved his daughter and would generously give her money, he would not give her that much. Soren gave up when he knew that other doctors were helpless in treating Cassidy''s illness. It was disgusting. Since he didn¡¯t want to give it to Cassidy, it was not a big deal to let him lose money somewhere else and give it all to her. Cassidy was shocked. Didn''t her dad say all thepany projects went wrong when she came home yesterday? It turned out that Cassie did it to vent her anger. Sofia was shocked! ¡°Cassandra, you¡¯re so amazing. It turned out that you did all this. | thought no one had a deep hatred with the Hansen family!¡± Sofia spoke directly again. Cassandra was silent.C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org Cassidy was silent. She thought, ¡®Sofia, say a little less. Can you change your temperament a bit? Can you think before you speak?¡¯ Sofia¡¯s mouth froze. She thought, ¡®Damn it! | must have said something wrong!" ¡°Cassandra, | was wrong. I¡¯m sorry!¡± Sofia looked like an apologist. Cassandra seemed to have gotten used to Sofia¡¯s speaking, so she didn¡¯t care about it. She told Cassidy, ¡°The Hansen family will not be in big trouble from now on. The 1.2 billion dors is a lesson for your father. You can keep the money. If anything happens in the future, | will charge you, but | will give you a discount.¡± Cassidy refused to ept the bank card, and she was deeply moved. If she hadn¡¯t gradually matured over time, she would have had to grow up quickly when she realized her illness and her father¡¯s reluctance to pay for it. It was not easy in the adult world, but when she met Cassandra, nothing seemed to be a problem. Such growth became a little rxed. She pushed the bank card to Cassandra and said, ¡°This money is yours. My father values money too much. It¡¯s okay for him to lose money. Just keep it.¡± 4/4 ¡°| don¡¯t need it. It¡¯s a waste in my hands. You take It, going to refuse, Cassandra red at Cassidy indifferently, which frightened her so much that she didn¡¯t dare to speak. ¡®In that case, I''ll donate it in the name of Dr. Quirke, Cassidy thought. Finally, Cassandra bought the thousand¡ª-year¡ªold wild ginseng from Sofia but didn¡¯t ask for it. She just asked for a fee, meaning she had promised to give it to her idol. Sofia only took 200 thousand dors, but Keh transferred 2 million dors to her. For Cassandra, even 20 million dors of wild ginseng was like a freebie. She put it back in herboratory happily. She told Cassidy to stop taking the medicine these two days, and it would take three days before she could start treatment. After Cassandra put everything away, she thought of something. She turned on theputer and transferred 200 million dors to Jeremiah for his hard work. After all, he had been busy for so many days. It was better to reward him in case this guy spread rumors everywhere. She closed theputer and went upstairs to find Keh. Upon seeing Cassandra, Keh waved at her, allowing her toe over. She nestled in his arms, adjustedfortably, and said gently, ¡°I¡¯m returning to Mr. all¡¯s shabby house. Will you come with me?¡± There were a lot of treasures in there. Cassidy needed herbs this time, which could only be found in the shabby house. Keh raised his eyebrows and said, ¡°You often talk about Mr. McCall¡¯s home?¡± ¡°Yeah, there are all precious herbs in it. There are also ordinary herbs, but they could be more precious. | can¡¯t wait to grab them and bring them back!¡± Cassandra has a mysterious obsession with Omar''s shabby house. If only the herbs were all hers, she could study whatever she wanted! ¡°Okay, I''ll go with you and try to get more this time. What do you think?¡± Keh thought it was a good suggestion. He could drive a car with more space. 2/4 Then, he could get Cassandra whatever she wanted. Cassandra was a woman who acted promptly and decisively, always ready to take action. So, in the afternoon, Keh and she drove straight to Omar¡¯s vi. Omar was shocked when he saw Cassandra. He thought, ¡®What¡¯s going on? Why did the two of theme back? It has only been a few days since they separated!* Why did he always feel Cassandra¡¯s eyes were full of evil intentions?! Keh brought two tonics to Omar, saying that they were gifts. But it was not all tonics, but two precious herbs. Of course, the premise was that Cassandra already had such herbs. Omar looked at them suspiciously and said, ¡°Is it a trap?¡± Cassandra took it for granted and said, ¡°Of course not. | just came back to see you. The scenery here is gorgeous in spring, so | n to stay there for a few days.¡± ¡®And pick up some treasures!¡® she thought: Omar didn''t believe it.

In this world, one could believe anyone but not her, okay? For the first time, he trusted her. His medicine cab was destroyed. The second time he trusted her, one-third of his preciousness was ruined. She lied to him so many times. Would he believe her again? ¡°What on earth are youing back for?

He knew Cassandra must be here for his precious medicine! 3/4 Chapter 463 He spent most of his life looking for herbs. Could he give them to her easily?! ¡°No, | disagree, no way!¡± Omar refused without asking what had happened, which showed how precious those treasures were. But Cassandra was not the kind of person who would give up just because someone said it was impossible. So Cassandra said calmly, ¡°I know you don¡¯t agree, so | brought Keh back to stay for two days.¡± ¡®If it doesn¡¯t work out, | will grab them by force!¡¯ she thought. Chapter 464 Chapter 464 Chapter 464 Keh cracked a faint smile, totally smitten with how wickedly clever his sweetheart could be. Ignoring Omar''s refusal, Cassandra marched right to her own room. Omar was speechless. Lost count of how many times he had questioned his life choices, wondering just what on earth he had taken under his wing. Disrespectful, always aiming to rile him up, and now, even coveted his precious medicinal herbs. In the room, Keh gently stroked Cassandra¡¯s hair and said, ¡°Never thought you''d be this cunning, with a bit of a childish streak too, huh?¡± Cassandra tilted her head, looking at Keh, unable to resist saying, ¡°That''s a bad thing?¡± She mused about Keh¡¯s words, ¡®Omar likes me being unbridled, doesn¡¯t he? ¡®Otherwise, | wouldn''t act this way the moment I¡¯m back to this ce. ¡®No matter what happens, this ce always gives me the right to be myself, rxed, worried about nothing.¡¯ ¡°No. It''s a pretty good one. Every side of you is wonderful. Your happiness is the top priority,¡± he said. He was speaking from the heart. To him, he didn¡¯t care what kind of person Cassandra was. What he truly cared about was. her happiness. ¡°Well, | feel rxeding back here because life was quite easy here. This ce is not far from Roond Vige. | used to study here, and came back to take care of Grandma after finishing my studies. She was living a much. easier life back then. Tired but sweet old days. | even dreamt about saving her, but...¡± The conversation turned somewhat mncholic, even a bit stifling. This ce was both a source of happiness and gloom for her. Keh pulled her into his arms, heartbroken. Cassandra sniffed, ¡°It¡¯s okay. All that¡¯s in the past now. | haven¡¯t dwelled on it much, just happened to think about it.¡± Poking Keh slightly, Cassandra pointed at a cab in the corner, ¡°That¡¯s where Omar kept the toys he prepared for me. They should still be there after all these years.¡± Though saying this, she mused, ¡®They were there a few years ago, at least. Whether they still were, was another question.¡¯ Curious, Keh opened the cab, finding a bunch of quaint and quirky stuff, ¡°They¡¯re all still here.¡± 4/4 Chapter 464 He carefully took the toys out, one by one. Cassandra felt a warm familiarity. ¡°Omar made these for me when | was ten years old. Can''t believe they¡¯re still here.¡±This content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org. Bamboo dragonflies, panda dolls, and other trinkets. Keh could tell that Omar truly doted on her as if she were his own granddaughter. ¡°Cute things,¡± Kehmented, handling them with care. The bamboo dragonfly, well-preserved but clearly aged, could crumble if not handled delicately. ¡°This was his biggest charm, attracting me to learn traditional medicine with him.¡± Those petit stuffs, reminding her of the old days, amused her, ¡®If | was not the poor little girl without any toy, would I be tricked into bing a traditional medicine practitioner?* Keh couldn¡¯t help but chuckle, ¡®My dear, studying traditional medicine just because of toys? ¡®If ''m not wrong, the true reason you studied traditional medicine, which requires tons of patience and time, was your grandma''s wish. Otherwise, how could it distract you from making money for a living?* ¡°Actually, there¡¯s another important reason. Omar once paid me 1 million dors to study it with him. With that money, | could save Grandma. So without a second thought, | agreed.¡± It was the quickest way to get such an amount of money. Even if it meant dealing with strangers or traffickers, she had no better choice. Her words confirmed Keh¡¯s suspicion. ¡®I just knew it. She did all this for her grandma. ¡°You''ve done a very good job. If it weren¡¯t for Omar teaching you, there would be no Dr. Quirke, and you wouldn''t have been able to change so many people¡¯s lives.¡± Keh hated it when she belittled herself as a gold¡ªdigger. There was no more convincing example than the miracle that happened to Kayden, who was sentenced to death with only one more week to live. But she managed to bring him back to life within a month. Kayden regained consciousness and could even stand up. To Keh, Cassandra was basically working magic. He was incredibly grateful, having only Kayden and John who were like his brothers in arms. Losing one would have been devastating. And there was Leanna. Though that woman had a heart as cold as ice, the fact that she had woken up and been cured of her poison was a testament to Cassandra¡¯s extraordinary skills. Despite Leanna¡¯s slumber, Harper was now in good health, clear proof of Cassandra¡¯s capabilities. 2/4 Chapter 464 ¡°Maybe you''re right. But don¡¯t you think the fees are too high?¡± Cassandraughed, posing the question. Reflecting on it now, she herself found the prices astonishingly high. ¡°Not really. Though your rates are steep, you adjust them based on the situation to save those who have a strong will to live. For those who truly want to live, who have nowsuits or resignations to fate, haven''t you offered free treatment since they couldn¡¯t afford the fees? It used to be once a year, now it¡¯s every three months. You¡¯ve done a very good job and you can¡¯t save everyone. Please go easy on yourself,¡± answered Keh in earnest. Dr. Quirke treating patients in person, with only 100 slots avable each time, was already beyond her capacity. She had already invested a lot in charity, with new drugs R&D being bottomless pits of expenditure. All those expenditure was shouldered by her. If she treated everyone for free, the title of Dr. Quirke would lose its meaning. Cassandra felt understood by Keh. Just when she thought of stealing a kiss from Keh, Omar entered, looking utterly disgusted. ¡°You two, get out here!¡± Cassandra rolled her eyes at Omar. ¡°What''s up?¡± ¡°Oh, dinner is ready.¡± Despite his words of disdain, his actions spoke differently-he had gone ahead and prepared the meal himself. ¡°Coming!¡± Cassandra responded cheerfully.

He thought, ¡®Has it been so long that | can¡¯t predict her actions anymore? ¡®What''s her next move?

Since you don¡¯t want to save her, | guess there¡¯s nothing | can do.¡± Omar was lost for words. ¡®ying the victim? What a nice trick! ¡®However, since it was Cassidy, I¡¯d like to offer a hand.¡¯ So he asked, ¡°Tell me about her.¡± He didn¡¯t want Cassandra to lose any of her true friends. Cassandra shared Omar Cassidy''s situation, Omar was also shocked at the severity. ¡°Do you need me to help?¡± ¡°It''s a bit tricky but not too difficult. We''re just short of a few herbs...¡± Cassandra¡¯s intentions were abundantly clear. Omar got the point. ¡°What do you need?¡± Omar resigned himself to his fate, figuring that offering willingly was a far better option than being outright robbed. Cassandra listed five names. Giving away each one of them would make Omar¡¯s heart bleed. He thought, ¡®The cunning girl deliberately chose the rarest ones! ¡®Can she be even more ¡°considerate¡°?* H ¡°Wait here,¡± Omar said and reluctantly went to his pharmacy and cut a bit of each herb Cassandra requested, his heart bleeding. While doing this, he pondered, ¡®Hopefully, it would be enough.¡¯ Soon, Omar returned with the herbs, ¡°Take these and go back quickly.¡± = ¡°There¡¯s no rush. Cassidy just stopped her previous medication today. She needs to stop for three days before we can start the new treatment. I''ll go back tomorrow.¡± Cassandra yawned after insisting on staying here. ¡°I''ll go see Grandma and then head to bed,¡± she added, outlining her ns before promptly heading out with Keh, making sure to secure the herbs. Since it all went surprisingly smoothly, with the rare herbs in hand, she adjusted her n and decided to lighten 4/4 Chapter 465 Omar''s collection only ¡°a bit¡± that night. Omar watched Cassandra¡¯s departing figure, puzzled, ¡®Is she really going to stay? Later that night, Omar was asleep when Cassandra suddenly got up, startling Keh. He thought, ¡®Didn¡¯t we get the herbs already? Then we can just leave tomorrow. What she¡¯s nning now? ¡°Keh, grab the stuff. We¡¯re heading home tonight,¡± Cassandra whispered as if about tomit theft. ¡°Huh? Why the rush?¡± Keh was a little confused. ¡°Perfect timing for a getaway.¡± She knew too well that Omar was a heavy sleeper, now was their best chance to raid his treasure trove. Keh was stunned, ¡®What, a getaway? ¡®Is she nning to grab those herbs right now?* Without a second thought, Keh sent a message to Yannick. And soon three people were mobilized, entering Omar''s house. Cassandra and Keh quietly went downstairs and sneaked into Omar''s pharmacy. Familiar with theyout, Cassandra opened the treasure cab, filled with Omar¡¯s prized herbs, some exclusive to his collection. With three extra pairs of hands, they managed to take a significant amount. As they left, Cassandra told Ethan, ¡°You¡¯re good with psychological support. If the Omar faints from shock tomorrow, call me!¡± Then, Keh drove them away. The next day, Omar found the silence in the house unsettling. And he noticed that the door of Cassandra¡¯s room was open. He immediately knew that something was amiss. He could barely contain his unease. ¡®My herbs! My treasure!! Rushing to his pharmacy, the sight nearly made him faint, but Ethan caught him in time. 211 Chapter 465 Omar asked in shock, ¡°Who are you? Why are you here?¡± ¡°I''m here to look after you, as ordered by Mr. Zelinski,¡± Ethan said this as if Keh was the culprit. ¡®Mr. Zelinski? Is he one of Keh¡¯s men?* The mention of Keh irritated Omar even more. ¡®This Mr. Zelinski is literally a bandit! All my treasures are gone now. It would be better to kill me!* ¡°Go to ask your Mr. Zelinski to give my herbs back!¡± Omar was beyond furious. He knew that Cassandra would definitely take the herbs, but he didn¡¯t expect that she would rob him of a significant portion of his collection. ¡¯40%, Cassandra! Did you think you''re entitled to a share of my stock? That''s too much!" ¡°Mr. all, calm down. Whatever Mr. Zelinski took is for a good reason. After all, he¡¯s sort of your son-inw,¡± Ethan tried to soothe him, but to no avail. ¡°Humph, a good reason? It¡¯s for Cassandra! He knows nothing about traditional medicine. Cassandra is the one who covets my collection.¡± He mused, ¡®What Mr. Zelinski? I¡¯m not a fool. It must be Cassandra who nned all this. No one except her has the ability to pick those herbs that are mutuallyplementary! ¡®No, | can¡¯t just sit idly by. | need to implement better security measures specifically targeted at Cassandra!" Back at Pinehart Mansion, Cassandra was thrilled. It was almost dawn. Having secured her coveted herbs, Cassandra, who was too excited to sleep, dived into her lad. After categorizing and experimenting with them, she emerged, visibly pleased. ¡°Happy?¡± Keh asked. ¡°Yeah, these are all mine now.

He was running out of time, with only two days left before his intense training session began, which he would also attend. Soon, he¡¯d have to live like a monk. Failing to seize this moment would be a disservice to himself. After a moment''s thought, Cassandra, wrapping her arms around his neck, gave him a quick peck on the lips. ¡°Is this enough?¡± ¡°Far from enough.¡± He would not be satisfied by a kiss. Keh carried Cassandra back to the bedroom. Thetter''s eyes were wide open out of embarrassment. ¡°Don''t be naughty. It¡¯s still daytime. Not now.¡± Even with the curtains drawn, the sunlight could seep through. Thinking of what would happen next, she blushed as red as a rose. Keh¡¯s bold moves and unwavering gaze spoke of a desire. Chapter 466 Chapter 466 Chapter 466 ¡°Babe, I¡¯ve only got a few days left, can you really bear to leave me hanging?¡± Keh¡¯s voice carried a pitiful tone, reminiscent of a peacock in courtship, desperately unting its feathers to gain affection. ¡°| can totally bear it. | think your istion training was way too short. You should extend it till the end of the year,¡± Cassandra replied stiffly, at her wit¡¯s end. She felt that Keh¡¯s desire was over too consuming. The past few days had left her visibly struggling. Her lower back was about to give out on her. Despite her fondness for having sex with Keh, the frequency was getting to be too much. Keh¡¯s eyes darkened, his gaze bing inscrutable with a hint of cunning, ¡°In that case, why don¡¯t you just stay in bed for the next couple of days?¡± Without giving Cassandra a chance to argue, he sealed her lips with his, muffling any retorts she might have had. Cassandra didn¡¯t manage to counter Keh. In the end, she was utterly spent to the point of not wanting to move a single finger. She fell asleep around noon, without having lunch or even a sip of water, unresponsive to Keh¡¯s calls. This worried him enough to summon a doctor, who concluded she was simply exhausted. Keh realized he needed to reflect on his actions. He couldn¡¯t keep wearing Cassandra out like this. He knew she was getting really exhausted, but he just could not stop. It was as if he was addicted to her presence, her sweet scent that lingered around him, stirring his emotions and causing an unrest within that he couldn¡¯t control. He found himself drowning in desire, unable to restrain his movements. After some deep reflection, he vowed to change. Caressing Cassandra''s cheek, noticing the signs of weariness on her face, he decided to retreat to his study to work, letting her rest undisturbed. In the Pinehart Mansion today, everyone moved with extra care, speaking in hushed tones to not disturb her rest. It was the next morning when Cassandra woke up. Keh¡¯s side of the bed was cold, indicating that he had been up for a while. But she couldn¡¯t find him either in the living room or in the study. Susan, seeing Cassandra awake, felt concerned but also pleased. She was all too aware of the transformation that came over Keh whenever he was with Cassandra, turning him 1/3 Chapter 466 into a man of tenderness and generosity, a true lover at heart. Their affection for each other turned the entire mansion into a haven of sweetness, much like lovebirds in their blissful world. ¡°Ms. Yates, you¡¯re awake! Mr. Zelinski prepared breakfast for you. Shall | bring it over?¡± Susan greeted her warmly. ¡°Sure, bring it here. I''ll eat at the coffee table. Where¡¯s Keh?¡± Keh was good at making breakfast. Cassandra took a bite of the food and asked. ¡°He¡¯s gone to the office, said he won''t be back till tonight,¡± replied Susan. Cassandra was skeptical, ¡®Going the the office? ¡®He''d been practically glued to home these past few days, and now suddenly he changed his mind?¡± ¡°All right, | know.¡± She continued eating without further inquiry. She nned to take the herbs to Whitecrane Hall for furtherpounding after breakfast. A herb needed could only be found in Whitecrane Hall. It seemed they had a monopoly on this herb. Upon arriving at Whitecrane Hall, Cassandra found it surrounded by a crowd. Pushing through, she saw Hugo treating someone, though his expression was grave. ¡°Hugo, Dr. Quirke hasn''t taught you anything for so many years? A random illness could kill you?¡± A man standing next to Hugo sounded very arrogant and even a little provocative. ¡°What''s going on?¡± she asked, approaching them. Cassandra¡¯s presence boosted Hugo, who had nned to call her if he couldn¡¯t nail it. ¡°Ms. Yates, someone here is challenging us!¡± eximed Scarlett from the reception. Cassandra was irritated by the audacity of those bullying a poor old man, simply to leech off Whitecrane Hall¡¯s fame with their new clinic, She scolded inwardly, ¡®Challenging? A bunch of hypocrites!¡¯ Cassandra faced them coldly, inquiring, ¡°Is it true?¡± Hugo nodded in confirmation awkwardly. There had been people who came here to challenge him in medical skills, so as to win fame and customers. Facing the challengers, her gaze sharp and voice cold, she asked, ¡°You¡¯re here to challenge us?¡± ¡°Well, it''s not exactly a challenge, more like a friendly exchange. What if we can cure what Hugo can¡¯t? Wouldn''t 2/3Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024. Chapter 466 that prove our clinic¡¯s worth?¡± one of those challengers, Adrian ckwood, retorted, clearly provoking. Adrian knew it was impossible for them to surpass Dr. Quirke. But Hugo, Dr. Quirke¡¯s helper, would be much easier to deal with. Being better than Hugo was enough to make them famous. Where there¡¯s fame, there¡¯s fortune. Cassandra, unfazed, turned to Hugo, ¡°Can you handle this on your own?¡± Hugo decided to tell the truth out of the sense of responsibility as a doctor. ¡°I can only control it temporarily, not cure it,¡± Hugo admitted, disappointed in his limitations. ¡°Then leave it to me,¡± dered Cassandra, taking silver needles and other tools from him. Adrian, skeptical, mocked her youth, ¡°Does Whitecrane Hall have no better doctors?¡± He studied Cassandra very closely. ¡°What can a young girl know about traditional mediainag tidod;even if yeuan''t aftord to lose, sending a girl won''t make things better.

Her age was convincing as an apprentice. ¡°But since this is apetition, | think we should set some rules, don¡¯t you think?¡± Cassandra looked at Adrian with a yful smirk, her toneced with light mockery. ¡°Of course, what''s the stake?¡± Adrian was inwardly thrilled. He¡¯de for a prize, and now Cassandra was handing it to him on a silver tter. How could he not take it? Cassandra said, ¡°We treated the patient you brought. So, you must treat the patient w reyaht. ofl) C. [sewont Sick a terminal case for you. If you manage to cure this one, you win, and Whitecrane Hall admits defeat. We''ll pack our things and leave.

Chapter 467 Chapter 467 Chapter 467 ¡°If | cure the patient you¡¯ve brought, and | win, you guys get lost and stay away from Whitecrane Hall. Sounds good?¡± Cassandra suggested. Adrian did some quick thinking. Winning could mean shutting down Whitecrane Hall, allowing them to dominate the market of Drieso. After all, without the famed Dr. Quirke around, how capable could Hugo''s apprentice be? But something about Cassandra seemed familiar, though he couldn¡¯t ce where he¡¯d seen her before. The crowd was bbergasted, wondering, ¡®Who is she exactly? The crowd was abuzz with conversation. ¡°Isn''t that Cassandra Yates? She knows traditional medicine too?¡± ¡°| also recognize her. Cassandra is practicing traditional medicine? Seriously?¡± ¡°Are you guys fans of her? No one can be that skilled in so many areas. Just use your brains.

This topic is going to explode, and this would be the perfect chance to attract followers!¡± While saying this, this woman immediately took out her phone and started a live stream, tagging ¡°Everything about Cassandra.¡± Soon, her live room was flooded with fans eager to see what was going on. Cassandra, noticing the Adrian¡¯s silence, urged, ¡°Have you decided? If not, take your patient and leave.¡± Adrian had just overheard the conversation, pondering, ¡®This was Cassandra Yates! Leveraging her influence could skyrocket my fame! ¡°Fine, but you must keep your word. We''re not bringing in any exceptionally difficult cases, and you can¡¯t deliberately make things hard for us,¡± Adrian insisted, wanting to ensure no foul y. ¡°Don''t worry. Your people will go with Hugo to pick the patient you want. How about that?¡± Cassandra offered a fair solution, giving them the final say. ¡°Deal!¡± agreed Adrian. Chapter 467 He was surprised that Cassandra seemed to be unfazed about this agreement. ¡°So, do | start treating this patient, or do you want to switch to another?¡± She knew these guys would not be kind enough to only prepare one patient for this challenge. ¡°Switch. This patient has been under Hugo¡¯s care. Taking over now would seem like cheating,¡± Adrian said, signaling his people to bring forward another patient. Cassandra suddenly asked, ¡°Dr. who? Please tell me how to address you?¡± Just got here, and she knew nobody. ¡°Dr. ckwood,¡± Adrian replied arrogantly, eyeing Cassandra. ¡°Okay,¡± Cassandra nodded. Adrian¡¯s team brought in a person covered in pustules, his face swollen and emitting a foul odor, causing the onlookers to step back from the stench. Even Adrian couldn¡¯t hide his disgust. The live chat exploded with reactions to the unpleasant sight: Yikes, no disrespect to the patient, but | can¡¯t handle this!] Suddenly, my Starbucks doesn¡¯t taste as good.

The professors said there¡¯s 2/4 Chapter 467 nothing left to teach her.] [Really? Is that even possible?!] Adrian smirked triumphantly at Cassandra, his gaze filled with disdain, ¡°Ms. Yates, please.¡± ¡°Yes.¡± Cassandra¡¯s voice was really calm. Cassandra approached, noting the patient''s swollen wrists made it impossible to diagnose from his pulse. She felt hisbored breathing which was likely to stop at any moment. Cassandra sighed, deciding to find a breakthrough from the patient''s statement. The f atignt gontesbety "ivegathQsdme wild game meats before. And thest time, it was a bat, which led to this.

Hugo returned with what Cassandra requested and her silver needles as well, which had been disinfected here since its owner had been resting at home those days. Hugo knew these were exactly what she wanted. Chapter 468 Chapter 468 N 21% 08:22 When Cassandra was about to start giving acupuncture to the patient, Adrian and hispanions subconsciously stayed away. This patient¡¯s disease was very strange. Unexpectedly, Cassandra was so bold that she started treating the patient. ¡®Humph, if the patient is dead, Whitecrane Hall would be in awsuit, Adrian thought. About an hourter, Cassandra finished the acupuncture. She breathed a sigh of relief, as did the onlookers andizens in the livestream. Acupuncture was only the first step, and then the blood in the pustule needed to be released. Cassandra took off her gloves and took out a set of surgical tools from her bag. Then she changed into new gloves, disinfected the scalpel, and began to cut open the pustule. Hugo wanted to help Cassandra, but Cassandra stopped him. Before she was sure whether the blood contained the virus, it was better not to let more people get close so as not to cause harm. It wasn¡¯t blood that wasing out of the pustules; it was something ck like it was poisoned. Many of the onlookers began to retch. It was too smelly and sour. Seeing that someone was about to take off his mask, Hugo hurriedly stopped him. ¡°You can¡¯t take off your mask. If you cannot stand it, you can leave now and take off your mask in other ces. Remember to wash your hands and disinfect them.¡± Some people couldn¡¯t stand the smell anymore. Even the people who ate and drank coffee around couldn¡¯t stand it and all left. The owner of the restaurant didn¡¯t know what was going on that there was such a stenching from 1. it. It smelled like a lot of sewers The smell was really bad. ¡°Cassandra frowned more and more tightly, and she also couldn¡¯t stand it. But treatment couldn¡¯t be done by halves. After all the ck blood was drained, that man¡¯s skin shrank back. Aside from the fact that his skin was still a little ugly, he seemed to have changed as a whole. The blood on his face was from the back and side of his neck, so after the blood was drained, most of his face recovered. ¡°How¡¯s it going? Are you feeling better?¡± Cassandra asked. ¡°I can breathe smoothly, I feel much better.¡± The patient stood up in surprise. 7 Chapter 465 It seemed that even the wound on his body was not a big deal. ¡°Ok¡± Cassandra said. Cassandra let s Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org. someone seal the blood water and take it away, Instead of being disposed of directly. The blood must be tested to confirm that it was not infectious and non¨Ctoxic before being thrown out. ¡°Hugo, you bandage the patient first, and then I¡¯ll check his pulse.¡± Cassandra took off her mask and gloves. The lobby of Whitecrane Hall was no longer smelly after the blood had been taken away. Adrian looked gloomy. He didn¡¯t expect that Cassandra did it. Even he wouldn¡¯t dare do such an operation. However, Cassandra did it. Checking a pulse would be easier for her. That was amazing! [Holy crap! Cassandra is so amazing. I can¡¯t believe she cured the patient.] [I want to praise Cassandra, but I don¡¯t know how. What should I do? My friends.] [It doesn¡¯t matter. Just kneel.] [That¡¯s awesome! I¡¯m so impressed!] [Just for this, no one can say anything bad about Cassandra in front of me from now on.] [Cassandra¡¯s fans are so endless about her. This is the basic quality of being a doctor.] (I also war want to say that. Don¡¯t you feel embarrassed when a group of peoplepliment Cassandra? I¡¯m embarrassed for you guys.] [Shut up! up! As long as you¡¯re a doctor, you can do it? Why don¡¯t you let Dr. ckwood do it? Isn¡¯t he a doctor?] [It¡¯s enough. Don¡¯t talk rubbish here if you¡¯re not capable.] When Hugo brought the patient back, the wound had been bandaged, and he changed into an energetic person. Although his skin was wrinkled, there was no stench on his body. Adrian was stunned and thought, Why did he be like this? It¡¯s easy for Cassandra to check his pulse now. Originally, he wanted to mock Cassandra through this man. But he didn¡¯t expect Cassandra to cure this man. ¡°Sit down. I¡¯ll check your pulse,¡± Cassandra spoke coldly with a serious expression. The patient reached out his hand gratefully. A few minutester, Cassandra said, ¡°There is no other problem. As soon as the blood is released, you will be cured. Go back and get some nutrition. I¡¯ll ask Hugo to prescribe traditional medicine for you.¡± 2/4 ?? Chapter 468 06.22 The patient kept thanking her. ¡°Thank you Thank you Ms Yates You are a miracle doctor My wife ran away and my parents abandoned me because of my disease. I can¡¯t thank you enough for curing me ~ Cassandra shed a faint smile to respond him ¡°Although you¡¯re cured, remember that you don¡¯t eat that game meat anymore. They carry viruses and bacteria If you eat them, they will make you like this again Cassandra couldn¡¯t help but say something If it hadn¡¯t been for her professionalism as a doctor, she would have started vomiting wildly with the dustbin in her arms ¡°Yes, yes, I see I will obey your instructions and never eat these things again The patient nodded quickly ¡°Well, you can go back¡± Cassandra said Cassandra looked at Adrian and asked, ¡°Are you satisfied? Adrian snorted coldly and said disdainfully. ¡°Who knows if your diagnosis is correct? Then you can diagnose him again Cassandra said indifferently Adrian slightly raised his eyelids with some contempt in his eyes, but he still grabbed the patient¡¯s hand and began to diagnose How is that possible? How could this happen? It is just a little blood loss? But it wasn¡¯t like the diagnosis before, Adrian thought ¡°Just take care of yourself¡± Adnan thought for a long time but couldn¡¯t find any problem, so he could only say this Everyone burst intoughter The patient left happily. He wanted to go home and have a good rest, then get his wife and children back, and apologize to his parents Cassandra looked at Adrian ¡°Ask Hugo with your people to choose a patient.¡± Adrian¡¯s face was a little cold go myself¡± His reputation was at stake, and there was no room for carelessness ¡°Ok, but if you choose some patients withmon cold to participate in thepetition, it will be unfair Cassandra said coldly Adrian was somewhat powerful, but he wasn¡¯t that great Maybe he was capable but was overshadowed by Whitecrane Hall, so it was difficult for him to stand out. So he wanted to choose this road to prove himself ¡°Don¡¯t worry I won¡¯t do such a thing¡± Adrian said HWPP Chapter 468 Hugo made a ¡°please¡± gesture and asked Adrian to follow him. The onlookers were getting excited. They were all ready to watch. Chapter 469 Chapter 469 After a while, Adrian chose a ruddy¨Cfaced and healthy¨Clooking man to appear. [That¡¯s¡­] I have to say that Dr. ckwood is good at finding people.] [Why didn¡¯t Dr. ckwoode to my house and choose me? I look much paler than this person.] [He¡¯s a bit shameless. It¡¯s not fair!] [Shame on him. What he did doesn¡¯t match what he said. I want to curse him.] [Don¡¯t hold it back. I¡¯ve had a lot of it, too. [What¡¯s the fun in thispetition? It¡¯s so unfair.] The onlookers also couldn¡¯t understand. Someone shouted, ¡°Doctor, don¡¯t you think you have gone too far? You find a person covered with pustules for Cassandra and choose someone who looks so good and very healthy for you. You are kidding, right?¡± Adrian¡¯s face darkened, but he didn¡¯t see who was shouting there. Scarlett praised this man silently. He was so brave and good at talking. ¡°Nicely done, dude, Scarlett thought. ¡°Those who look healthy have many diseases. This patient looks ruddy, but he is seriously ill,¡± Adrian said. Cassandra found a ce to sit down. She felt a little pain in her waist, which was worse when she bent over just now. She needed to rest. Hugo was silently paying attention to Cassandra. ¡®What¡¯s wrong with her? She used to see two more patients like this without getting tired. Why is she so tired today? kel have ¡°It looks like I¡¯ll have to arrange a check¨Cup for herter.¡¯ However, Hugo didn¡¯t know that Keh was the culprit. In Zelinski Group, Yannick rushed into the office with his phone. ¡°Mr. Zelinski, Mrs. Zelinski is¡­¡± Keh looked at Yannick with a cold face and sharp eyes. Yannick subconsciously wanted to quit, but he had something important to tell Keh. ¡°What¡¯s wrong with my wife?¡± Keh looked at Yannick. ¡°She went to the Whitecrane Hall, but someone was challenging her at the Whitecrane Hall today. It was broadcast. 1/4 A Chapter 4na 19% 08:22 live.¡± Yannick handed the phone to Keh, and it happened to be a live stream. ¡°Go to the Whitecrane Hall¡± Keh immediately got up, threw the phone on the table, and left. Yannick hurriedly took back his phone. ¡®It¡¯s not bad. Mr. Zelinski didn¡¯t smash my phone, and I saved my phone this time. It¡¯s congrattory! It¡¯s something worth sharing! However, Jeremiah ignored his sharing at all. In Whitecrane Hall, there were still many onlookers protesting and thinking it I was u unfair. Even if he couldn¡¯t find a person with pustules, he should at least choose someone who looked bad and critically Cassandra said at the right time, ¡°Dr. ckwood, you can stort. Don¡¯t waste time.¡± She introduced to the onlookers, ¡°This patient has been in Whitecrane Hall for a month, and everyone is at their wit¡¯s end. Dr. ckwood, please take a look at him.¡± Cassandra admired Adrian¡¯s taste and picked the most serious patient in Whitecrane Hall. Hugo couldn¡¯t cure this patient, so he asked her to help with the diagnosis. Today, she came over with medicine and was ready to diagnose by the way. Unexpectedly, Adrian directly chose this person as his patient. Cassandra was also curious to see how Adrian would treat this patient. Adrian was speechless. Only then did the onlookers feel relieved. Then they ept it reluctantly. They didn¡¯t know why they believed Cassandra for no reason as if Cassandra had a magical ability to make them abedient. After feeling the pulse of the patient, Adrian¡¯s brow stretched and then sweat came out of his forehead. It looks like this patient will be very difficult to cure. ¡°I need medical equipment for examination.¡± Adrian didn¡¯t see what the patient¡¯s symptoms were, so he assumed that he could find out through the medical equipment. Hugo was a little dissatisfied. Why could Adrian use modern medicine? That was unfair. Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024. ¡°Okay, go ahead.¡± Cassandra was generous enough to agree to Adrian¡¯s request. Cassandra had seen the case of this patient, and all the equipment couldn¡¯t find out his symptoms. Hugo was also confused. As long as it was a general check¨Cup, there would be some symptoms more or less. But this person had 2/4 7 Chapter 459 no symptoms at all which was the biggest problem. Moreover, ording to Hugo¡¯s report, the man coughed up blood many times in front of them. However, after coughing, he could not detect any symptoms in any of the examinations. So she also wanted to see what Adrian could find out this time. After many examinations, Adrian came out with a gloomy face and asked, ¡®Ms. Yates, Hugo, it¡¯s boring for you to be like this. He has no symptoms. Your equipment is broken, right? Nothing has been found out. Do you think it¡¯s reasonable?¡± Cassandra chuckled. ¡°This patient is like this. This is the biggest problem, isn¡¯t it? It¡¯s not that the equipment is broken, but that his examination results are the same in all hospitals. If he hadn¡¯t coughed up blood often and felt that he would not live long, he wouldn¡¯t havee to the doctor. Adrian was stunned. Was there such a disease? Cassandra asked the patient, ¡°Can I show your case to this doctor? He is making a treatment n for you.¡± The patient was stunned and asked suspiciously, ¡°Really?¡± ¡°Of course. Even if he can¡¯t give you a good n, I will cure you, Cassandra said. ¡°Okay,¡± the patient said. When Adrian received the case, his face was cold. He felt that Cassandra didn¡¯t feel shame at all and said such arrogant words. But after watching the case, his face was cold again. The examination results from several hospitals were the same. This patient didn¡¯t have any diseases, but the patient and Hugo both said that he was coughing up blood. What¡¯s going on? It seems to be a little tricky. If I can¡¯t cure this man, then I will lose, Adrian thought. Time went by and everyone waited impatiently. ¡°How long do we have to wait? Can you treat him or not? It¡¯s already afternoon,¡± one of the onlookers who were watching said. ¡°Hurry up. If you can¡¯t do it, just let Cassandra do it,¡± another onlooker said. As soon as these words came out, the man was strangled at the back of his neck. It was Yannick who picked him up. ¡°How can you order Cassandra?¡± Keh walked slowly towards Cassandra. Seeing that she was sitting there with a trace of sleepiness in her eyes, he felt even more guilty. ¡°Why did youe here when you woke up?¡± Keh asked gently. 3/4 WNPP *#19% 08:22 Chapter 469 ¡°Bring the medicine. Cassidy also needs some herbs in Whitecrane Hall.¡± Cassandra leaned against Keh with her head against his waist. The posture was very ambiguous. Chapter 470 Chapter 470 [Ahhhh! What did I see?!] [Please turn the camera to Cassandra and Mr. Zelinski! All I want to do is to see them!] [Me tool Me too!] [Mr. Zelinski is here. I feel Cassandra¡¯s aura has changed!] [Exactly. Cassandra was domineering at first, but she looks cute now. I didn¡¯t expect Cassandra to act coquettishly!] [Is cold and aloof, but now she is so clingy. I am a little moved. What¡¯s it an illusion? In the past, Cassandra was wrong with me?] [Boo¨Choo! I¡¯m so envious of them! I¡¯m also d that someone finally cares for Cassie] [I¡¯m about to cry. What a touching scene!] The streamer saw an increase in the number ofments on the screen, and some even showered her with gifts when the camera was aimed at Cassandra and Keh. She won big this time. [Are you guys overwhelmed by her again? Are you having fun? That¡¯s just Cassandra¡¯s public persona. How could you be so moved by her? She¡¯s not worth it.] [I won¡¯t me you if you don¡¯t understand. I¡¯ll scold you if you deliberately make caustic remarks about Cassandral] [How outrageous Cassandra¡¯s fans are! Don¡¯t you know whose channel this is? Your remarks are disrespectful to the streamer.] [If someone showers me with gifts worth a few hundred dors, she can say whatever she wants in my channel. It won¡¯t stop her. Don¡¯t be so mean!] ¡°How much longer does it take? Let¡¯s go home together,¡± Keh asked, gently rubbing Cassandra¡¯s head and tightening the grip on her waist. He regretted having too much sex with Cassandra the night before. Otherwise, she wouldn¡¯t have been so tired. ¡°Pretty soon,¡± Cassandra replied. As long as Adrian admitted defeat, she could go home. She decided to fill the prescriptions tomorrow. ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll be waiting for you,¡± Keh said. Adrian was at his wits end. ¡°You deliberately made things difficult for me by giving me a patient with a complex 1/4 A dd MM Chapter 470 disease. I¡¯m not convinced,¡± he said to Cassandra fiercely. Cassandra frowned at Adrian, ¡°W¨CWhat did you say?¡± ¡°I¡¯m not convinced. I won¡¯t admit defeat.

You made your own decision, and you me me? Dr. ckwood, don¡¯t you feel ashamed?¡± Cassandra said directly. If it had happened before, Cassandra would have had him thrown out without saying anything.. ¡°You¡­¡± Adrian¡¯s face turned purple with rage. He thought, ¡°How rude of her!¡® ¡°Don¡¯t go too far!¡± he said. Cassandra snorted. ¡°Huh? Aren¡¯t you here to challenge me? You¡¯re the one who made things difficult for Hugo. You chose the patient by yourself. You only have yourself to me.¡± ¡°Yannick, throw all the troublemakers out! Do you really think you can throw your weight around in Whitecrane Hall? It¡¯s your wishful thinking to get poprity by challenging Whitecrane Hall!¡± Cassandra said coldly. She got used to asking Yannick to help her. After all, he made the best infantrymen. It was also probably because Jeremiah had mentioned Yannick too many times in front of her recently, causing her to unconsciously direct him to do things! Yannick was overjoyed to do what he asked, He thought, ¡°I need to work for Mrs. Zelinski after finishing Mr. Zelinski¡¯s work. I¡¯m as busy as a bee!¡± ¡°Cassandra, you¡­¡± Yannick was unconvinced when Yannick began to kick them out. ¡°The traditional medicine practitioner values self¨Ccultivation, serenity of mind, and humility. However, you¡¯re sopetitive. Are you certain you can be a qualified doctor? You don¡¯t have any medical ethics. You don¡¯t deserve to be a traditional medicine practitioner!¡± ¡°Cassandra thundered. Yannick kicked those challengers out and Hugo also drove away the rubberneckers, leaving the patients only. As for the patient who appeared to be fine, Cassandra asked him toe to Whitecrane Hall in less than an hour if he coughed up blood the next time. Because she couldn¡¯t tell what he was wrong at the moment. 2/4 A dd MM Chapter 470 When they got home, Susan had already prepared dinner for them.

But he seemed to have forgottenmon sense and the time when he and Cassandra registered marriage. ¡°Of course not, I don¡¯t feel very well as long as I thought of that patient,¡± she replied.

We¡¯re not allowed to contact the outside world during the meeting. I must go tomorrow,¡± Keh exined. Actually, he took the initiative to attend these two meetings. He was afraid that he wouldn¡¯t stop himself from having sex with her in theing days, so he applied to attend the meeting and began training.

After having sex with Keh so many times, she also learned some skills. This time, she wanted to be on top and make him happy. She also knew how to do those moves! As Cassandra spoke, she touched the tip of Keh¡¯s nose. ¡°Honey¡­¡± Keh ached with need. Cassandra kept teasing Keh for about an hour. Keh blushed till he couldn¡¯t blush any redder. He tried hard to bring the whole situation under control. However, Cassandra looked so innocent that he couldn¡¯t resist the temptation. Unable to stand this any longer, he rolled over and pinned her to the bed. Keh couldn¡¯t have enough of her all night. Atst, Cassandra couldn¡¯t bear it and cried in pain. But he was so horny that he didn¡¯t let her go. 1/4 A M M Chapter 471 Keh was like a beast who had been locked in a cage. Once he got free, he would start to make himself happy! He said this was thest round of sex, but he couldn¡¯t stop. In the end, Cassandray down on the bed, motionless. Her eyes were red as if she had been crying for a long time. Keh didn¡¯t sleep a wink all night. After cleaning Cassandra, he held her in his arms all the time. He grew as he thought that they would be apart for several months. When Keh left, Cassandra was so tired that she couldn¡¯t get out of bod. William packed Keh¡¯s clothes in another room and dared not to disturb Cassandra. When Keh got into the car, Yannick and Jeremiah were stunned. Why didn¡¯t Cassandra see him out? Did they have a quarrel? But Keh smiled happily. He seemed reluctant to leave. What did that mean? Jeremiah was also confused. ¡°Wasn¡¯t ine clingy to Keh?¡® Keh would be away for a few months. Didn¡¯t she say goodbye to him? ¡°Keh, did you upset ine? Why didn¡¯t shee to see you off?¡± Jeremiah asked directly. After thinking for a while, he felt something wrong. ¡°No. Why didn¡¯t shee and see me off?¡± Keh looked up and raised his eyebrows. ¡°Why should my wifee to see you off? You¡¯re overthinking.¡± ¡°Then why didn¡¯t I see her?¡± Jeremiah asked. He didn¡¯t see her in the living room or the doorway. He doubted something must have happened between them. ¡°My wife i ¡°My wife is sleeping. So what?¡± Keh retorted. Jeremiah was speechless. He thought, ¡°What the hell? Could it be¡­ Damn It!¡± He shouldn¡¯t have asked him in the first ce! Jeremiah stopped talking immediately. Yannick looked a little gloating. He thought, ¡®See? You shouldn¡¯t have asked him such a question. You¡¯ll get unlucky once you ask. Why bother?¡± 2/4 A Chapter 471 Keh didn¡¯t joke with them. He just looked down at his phone, his photo albums were full of photos he had taken secretly of Cassandra, most of which were of her sleeping faces. In the next few months, he had to live with this. Suddenly, he didn¡¯t want to go to training. All he wanted was to spend time with his wife at home. When they arrived at the Falcon Special Operations Force Base, Keh put on a serious expression. It was time to start work. After texting Cassandra, he turned off his mobile phone. He entrusted Ethan and Lamont with the Zelinski Group. In addition, Cassandra could also help them. When Cassandra woke up, Keh had already gone. She panicked. She hurriedly changed clothes and got up. When she went downstairs, William was busy in the living room. But there was no sign of Keh. ¡°William, where¡¯s Keh?¡± she asked, looking at William. ¡®Mrs. Zelinski, Mr. Zelinski have gone to the base. You don¡¯t need to worry about him,¡± William said respectfully. Cassandra¡¯s eyes dimmed. Why didn¡¯t he wake her up? She intended to pack some food for him. However, she was asleep when he left. She scratched her head irritably and felt regretful. ¡°Okay,¡± Cassandra grunted. She wouldn¡¯t be able to see him for several months. Anyway, she satisfied him in bed the night before. There was no need to feel upset for not seeing him off this morning. Time had gone so fast. He would come back soon. Cassandra¡¯s waist was so sore that she decided to go back to sleep. She not only needed to sleep now but also to lie down. She desperately needed a massage to rx her body. On second thought, she¡¯d better acupuncture herself so she could recover in a short time. Cassandra received a call from Lydia as soon as she finished needling herself. ¡°Ms. Yates, help! Nelson began coughing more frequently since this morning. He vomited every time he ate!¡± Lydia spoke anxiously. She had no choice but to call Cassandra for help because the doctors in Whitecrane Hall didn¡¯t have time to go out on home visits. Her child had been seeing traditional medicine practitioners since birth. Whitecrane Hall had all his medical records. Therefore, she wanted to ask Cassandra for help. Cassandra frowned. ¡°I¡¯ll be right there. You take care of Nelson. Tell me all of his symptoms so I can make a 3/4 A É« SEND GIFT Chapter 471 Judgment.¡± ¡°OK,¡± Lydia said. Lydia was worried sick. Fortunately, she had Cassandra. Otherwise, she couldn¡¯t image what Nelson would go through! 0 Chapter 472 Chapter 472 Cassandra arrived at the military residentialpound an hour and a halfter. She also wanted to hurry over, but her butts were in great pain when she sat in the driver¡¯s seat. She regretted seducing Keh the night before. How naive she was! She thought it was just one night. She indulged herself to have sex with him all night. When she got up this morning, her lower back was in excruciating pain. She tried so hard to endure the ache with each step. It was horrible. l Keh was so strong that he couldst longer in bed. She was no match for him at all. Sitting in the driver¡¯s seat, her butt was so painful that she had to go back to her room for a pillow. On second thought, she fetched a few more in various sizes just in case. After sittingfortably in the seat, Cassandra drove straight to the military residentialpound. When Lydia saw Cassandra, she burst into tears. John¡¯s doctor also came to see Nelson, but he couldn¡¯t cure him. The pediatrician from the military hospital came over and prescribed a lot of medicine for Nelson, but none worked. ¡°Ms. Yates¡­ Lydia cried. She felt more prone to crying after bing a mother. Although she knew crying couldn¡¯t solve the problem, she couldn¡¯t stop herself from crying. She couldn¡¯t bear to see Nelson in great pain. ¡°Lydia, don¡¯t worry. I won¡¯t let anything happen to Nelson,¡± Cassandraforted Lydia. After all, she could take good care of Nelson only if she was emotionally stable. Selena also looked anxious, tears welling up in her eyes. John also looked upset. His heart ached for his grandson who had been suffering a lot these days. ¡°Cassie, please check on Nelson. What¡¯s wrong with him?¡± Selena said in a pleading tone, taking Cassandra¡¯s hand. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, Selena. I¡¯m Nelson¡¯s godmother and I won¡¯t let anything happen to him. You guys need to calm down, so you can take good care of him,¡± Cassandra said in aforting voice. After that, she gently held Nelson¡¯s hand and began to feel his pulse. She frowned. ¡°Nothing serious. He has gastroesophageal reflux disease. He¡¯s too little. It¡¯s not easy to feed him medicine. Plus, it probably won¡¯t work well,¡± Cassandra said, breathing a sigh of relief. She was also scared to death because she 1/4 A dd M M Chapter 472 thought Nelson was in a grave condition. 16% 08:23 ¡°What should we do now? He vomited every time he ate and cried asionally,¡± Lydia asked, looking worried and helpless. ¡°I¡¯ll give him an acupuncture treatment. Don¡¯t feed him too much, or it will cause stomach upset,¡± Cassandra replied. Lydia was scared out of her wits after hearing what she said. ¡°Ah? Does he need an acupuncture treatment?!¡± she asked. Cassandra smiled. ¡°Don¡¯t worry. It won¡¯t hurt.¡± She could understand Lydia didn¡¯t want Nelson to suffer a little pain as a mother. However, he wouldn¡¯t have been cured if he didn¡¯t take an acupuncture treatment. Besides, she was so good at needling. Nelson wouldn¡¯t feel any pain at all. ¡°Please do it,¡± Lydia said. She didn¡¯t want to see Nelson suffer anymore. Cassandraughed. ¡°I need you to hold Nelson and expose his belly. Otherwise, I can¡¯t needle him.¡± Lydia lifted Nelson¡¯s clothes to reveal his cute and soft belly with trembling fingers. Cassandra took out a silver needle to disinfect it. Seeing such a long needle, Selena was worried and even Lydia was scared. Um¡­ However, Nelson didn¡¯t feel anything after Cassandra inserted the needle. He even stared at Lydia, looking very cute. Lydia was a little scared when she saw Cassandra insert about eight needles through Nelson¡¯s skin. She thought, ¡°Didn¡¯t she just say two of them was enough? Why eight ones!¡® ¡°Is it enough?¡± Lydia asked. ¡°Yes. He¡¯ll be fine in two minutes, Cassandra said. Lydia thought it was too amazing to be true. ¡®Really?¡± ¡°Have I ever lied to you?¡± Cassandra said. Lydia shook her head immediately, thinking, ¡®Great! Nelson will be fine soon!¡± After Cassandra removed the needles from Nelson¡¯s skin, Lydia found that he did look much better. 2/4 A 16 08:25 Chapter 472 However, Nelson suddenly burst into tears. Panicked, Lydia asked immediately. ¡°Why is he still crying? Is there anything wrong?¡± Cassandra felt speechless. ¡°He¡¯s probably hungry, Lydia.¡± For the past two days, Nelson had been throwing up every time he ate, so he hadn¡¯t eaten much. He was probably crying because he was starving.Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024. Hearing this, Lydia carried Nelson upstairs to nurse him in the bedroom. Nelson stopped crying as soon as he got fed. A few minutester, he was full and fell asleep. Only then did Lydia smile with satisfaction in her eyes, She thought ¡°You¡¯re finally okay. Don¡¯t scare me like this next time, Nelson.¡¯ She put Nelson in the crib and asked the babysitter to take care of him. Then she went downstairs to talk to Cassandra ¡°Thank you so much, Ms. Yates!¡± Lydia hugged her. If it weren¡¯t for her, Nelson wouldn¡¯t have recovered so quickly. ¡°No worries. I¡¯m his godmother,¡± said Cassandra. John appreciated Cassandra more and more because she was not only collected but also highly skilled. ¡°Cassandra, Where is Keh?¡± he asked. ¡°Keh has got two more meetings and after that, he¡¯s off to a closed training,¡± Cassandra said truthfully. ¡°Oh, I remember it.¡± Keh¡¯s superiors had approved his request to attend the meetings. They were happy to see this because every time they asked Keh to attend the meeting, he refused. He was willing to go to the meetings this year because he wanted Cassandra to get some rest. Hearing that Keh had also feft, Lydia said with excitement, ¡°Mr. Zelinski is gone. How about you stay with me. at my house, Ms. Yates?¡± ¡°Don¡¯t bother. Just call me if you need anything, and I¡¯lle here as soon as I can. I have a friend with aplicated condition and I¡¯m going to start treating her tomorrow,¡± Cassandra refused.

Sofia had been very anxious these days. After stopping taking the medicine, Cassidy coughed every day, even every few minutes. She couldn¡¯t go to the ssroom so she took a day off and came to Whitecrane Hall on the weekend. She could only avoid coughing for a few days by constantly drinking water or forcing herself not to. Cassidy was in so much pain that she kept rolling over on the bed in her dormitory. Sofia wanted to give her medicine, but she didn¡¯t because Cassandra said no. To prevent herself from giving Cassidy the pills, Sofia found all the pills and took pictures of them before she threw them away. She kept the pictures in case she needed to go to the pharmacy one day to buy them. ¡°Please help Cassidy, Cassandra. She couldn¡¯t stop coughing and she felt sharp pains all over after she stopped. taking the medicine. She almost died.¡± Sofia told Cassandra how miserable Cassidy had been thest few days. Cassandra took a nce at Cassidy, who had no makeup today and looked extremely haggard. Cassandra walked up to Cassidy and gave her an auscultation, nodding. It wasn¡¯t that bad.

Let¡¯s move on to the next step.¡± Cassandra nodded. It was a good start, anyway. Cassidy left with Cassandra, and Sofia was waiting outside alone. When Cassidy came out of the room, she looked better and her face wasn¡¯t pale anymore. It was the first time Cassidy had felt so good since her illness that she almost thought she was cured. ¡°I need you toe to Whitecrane Hall tomorrow and do all the tests on this list.

Juste to me with the test reports the day after tomorrow,¡± Cassandra said. ¡°Keep this bottle of pills and take one every day. Don¡¯t overdose.¡± Cassandra gave Cassidy the pills and asked Sofia to take care of her. No matter how much pain Cassidy was in for the first three days, she could only take one pill each day. She would be much better three dayster. Sofia felt honored to be given such a task. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, Cassandra. I¡¯ll take good care of her!¡± Cassidy said in a soft voice, ¡°Got it. Trust me, I can make it.¡± She thought, The next three days are nothingpared to the miserable days I¡¯ve had before. Besides, I have nothing to worry about with Cassie beside me. ¡®By the way, I still keep the 1.2 billion dors Cassie gave me. I don¡¯t have to be afraid of whatever¡¯s coming next. ¡®I won¡¯t give the money back to my dad. He doesn¡¯t care about me at all. He can make that much money himself in a short time if he wants.¡± Two dayster, Cassandra got the test reports. Cassidy was much better but still suffered from a cough. ¡°Are you still ufortable?¡± Cassandra asked. Cassidy shook her head and said in a hoarse voice, ¡°Since I took the pills you gave me, I don¡¯t cough as much as before even though I still cough every day. I haven¡¯t had a cough since this morning. I think I¡¯m getting better.¡± Cassidy couldn¡¯t believe it worked. She used to take pills regrly as prescribed, but she just couldn¡¯t stop coughing.

Juste to Whitecrane Hall after ss if you really want to.¡± Although they were friends, Cassandra didn¡¯t want to refuse Sofia¡¯s request because she was healthy. After all, Cassandra had been abandoned before for the same reason. Anyway, as a student, Sofia¡¯s priority was to work hard and get her diploma. She was going to be a junior who had fewer sses, so she just needed toe to Whitecrane Hall after ss. In this way, she also got exercise. Sofia was overjoyed to hear that. ¡°Got it!¡± Unexpectedly, the treatment took Cassidy most of the year, and for a month she was in so much pain that she wanted to die. Her father never came to visit her, and even her mother rarely came. They seemed to want very little to do with Whitecrane Hall for fear that it would cost them a lot of money. Cassidy was cured after getting treatment in Whitecrane Hall, but she had to cut her long hair for treatment. However, she still looked cool with her short haircut. Cassidy, who took a break for most of the year, didn¡¯t resume her sophomore year. Instead, she told the principal and the dean that she was going back to her old ss. She said that she could take a test first. She studied hard in the past half year and learned a lot from Hugo, so she easily passed the test and went back to her old ss. The principal was impressed that she came back to school so soon after she beat cancer. What was more, she didn¡¯t fall behind in her studies. Therefore, he decided to reward her. 3/4 A I S S M M Chapter 473 15% 08:24 He decided to hold an event on campus before Columbus Day and reward students like Cassidy. What Cassandra didn¡¯t expect was that Keh, who was supposed to be in closed training for three months, had left for more than half a year. He left at the end of March and now Columbus Day wasing. He hadn¡¯te back yet. He missed her, but the training wasn¡¯t over, so he asked her toe to see him. Chapter 474 Chapter 474 Although Cassandra wasining about it, she felt excited as well. Since she had known Keh, she had never been away from him for so long, and ever since they had begun their rtionship, they hadn¡¯t been apart for more than half a month. She hadn¡¯t seen him for more than six months this time. Cassandra missed him so much that she packed her things up and flew to Hydias. Keh always went to Hydias or a further city called Wesburn for closed training. Maybe these two cities were more important. Cassandra heard that they had just gone from Wesburn to Hydias and that they would have two days off to celebrate Columbus Day. The only problem was that they couldn¡¯t leave Hydias. That was why Keh called Cassandra and asked if she wanted toe. Cassandra said yes without hesitation.

Although he was hurting her back, she didn¡¯t Intend to push him away at all. Keh let go of Cassandra and kissed her on the lips passionately. He hadn¡¯t seen her for so long and that was his way to show how much he missed her. Keh didn¡¯t stop until Cassandra could barely breathe. He held Cassandra with one hand, took her suitcase with the other, and left the airport happily with her. Since Keh was not allowed to spend the night outside, he took Cassandra to their training base. Fortunately, all his superiors liked her.. She lived in the same room as Keh. Even though it was just an ordinary single room, it was good enough for 1/4 Chapter 474 soldiers Keh kissed Cassandra again and said, ¡°Would you like a tour of this ce?¡± ¡°Sure. I have plenty of time, Cassandra agreed immediately. She said so because she was afraid that Keh was going to have sex with her right now, and that would be super awkward if it was found out by others. There were few people on the yground because most people were out. However, Cassandra saw something she had never expected. She squinted her eyes to make sure that she wasn¡¯t having an Illusion, She thought, ¡°Are the two men embracing each other Jeremiah and Yannick? ¡®Wait. What¡¯s going on here? ¡®What does Yannick want from Jeremiah?¡± She tilted her head and looked at Keh, pissed. ¡°What¡¯s going on between them?¡± Keh was also speechless.

Cassandra was speechless at his meaningless words. ¡°I¡¯m about to ask them about it.¡± After Cassandra finished speaking, she walked quickly to them. Keh had never seen her go so fast except for running. ¡°Ahem!¡± Her cough made Jeremiah rmed. He immediately withdrew his hand and turned around, and when he saw Cassandra, he thought, ¡®ine is here!

She thought, I¡¯m not going to judge them. Why do they act so guilty?¡± She felt embarrassed. She just wanted to figure out what was going on between them and that was all. Jeremiah looked guilty like he had been caught having an affair with someone. ¡°You got me wrong. I was just surprised to see you here because I thought Keh would take you to a hotel,¡± Jeremiah exined hurriedly, but somehow, the more he exined, the more guilty he sounded. ¡°Really? I guess you¡¯re trying to hide something from me.¡± Cassandra rolled her eyes and turned to look at Yannick. Yannick was also a little embarrassed. He knew that Cassandra had guessed what was going on, but she never said it directly, so he was hesitant to tell her about it. Jeremiah scratched his head awkwardly. He wasn¡¯t hiding something from her. He just didn¡¯t know how to exin It to her. He thought that maybe he should tell her about itter, but he didn¡¯t expect her to be here. ¡°Jere and I are dating, Mrs. Zelinski. I would like to have your blessing. Yannick said loudly, showing his determination. After that, he bowed to Cassandra deeply. Yannick knew that Jeremiah owed a lot to Cassandra, who brought Jeremiah back from the dead ten years ago. and gave him something to live for. She had a hard time but she never gave up on him. When life became easier for Cassandra, she always gave Jeremiah whatever he wanted. Although she was one year younger than Jeremiah, she always took care of him, gave him everything he asked for, and taught him how various skills. Therefore, Yannick would like to express his respect and gratitude to Cassandra. Cassandra was speechless. ¡°You don¡¯t need my permission. I¡¯m not your mother.¡± Hearing this, Yannick was stunned, not sure what he should do. Jeremiah said, ¡°ine¡­¡± Cassandra interrupted him with a stern face, ¡°When did you decide to date each other?¡± 13% 08:24 Chapter 474 En Before the training¡± Jeremials sounded a little timid ¡°So I was thest one to know about it, wasn¡¯t 17 Cassandra was a little mad. ¡°No, ine.

He nned to go back after the training and ask Cassandra for her opinion. Unexpectedly, she discovered it herself. Cassandra raised her eyebrows. It turned out that she was the first one to know about it. ¡°What are e you gonna do next? in it just for fun or are you going to stay with each other for the rest of your life?¡± Cassandra asked seriously, looking like a caring mother.

I can hear you.¡± However, Cassandra ignored Yannick and turned to look at Jeremiah. ¡°What do you mean?¡± she asked. Jeremiah thought for a moment and said, ¡°That¡¯s what we both want.¡± The depth of Jeremiah and Yannick¡¯s feelings remained strong despite their rtively short time together. For Jeremiah, there was no other girl he liked besides Cassandra. As a result, he never allowed other girls to get close to him. He believed he would continue this way for the rest of his life. Unexpectedly, he then met Yannick. They were enemies at first, but they couldn¡¯t leave each other in the end. Jeremiah knew that it would be Yannick because no one else could make him feel that way. ¡°Okay, this is your choice. As long as you are mentally prepared. I wish you both happiness, Cassandra sighed and said. Now that they had made their firm choice, they should stick to it. No one could stop them, not even Cassandra. Now it was Yannick and Jeremiah¡¯s turn to be at a loss. Jeremiah didn¡¯t understand what was going on. He had meticulously crafted numerous speeches in anticipation of ine possibly rejecting his decision, and he stood prepared to deliver them when the moment called for it. But now, it seemed that Jeremiah didn¡¯t have to say anything. ¡°Do you mean it?¡± Jeremiah asked uncertainly. ¡°What more can I do? Must I intervene and separate you two before you persuade me with your philosophies? It won¡¯t be you who suffers then, but me,¡± Cassandra discerned Jeremiah¡¯s trick and voiced herint. Cassandra said softly, ¡°You are independent. No one can stop you from doing whatever you want to do. Of course, as long as you don¡¯t regret it. I know you can¡¯t beat Yannick. If he bullies you, tell me and I will ask his boss to beat him.¡± Yannick and Keh were speechless. Keh wondered, ¡®Is it toote to kick Yannick out of the organization?¡± Jeremiahughed happily and said, ¡°Don¡¯t worry. If he dares to bully me, I will take away all his money.

In a kind gesture, Cassandra even extended her well wishes to Jeremiah and Yannick. ¡°All right, you two get out of my sight right now!¡± Keh looked at the two men under hismand and felt annoyed. Yannick immediately got rmed and ran away with Jeremiah. Cassandra squinted in the direction they were leaving. Keh held Cassandra in his arms and said, ¡°I thought you were here to question them and separate them.¡± Cassandra exined, ¡°Am I really that heartless? Furthermore, Jeremiah is Jeremiah. I cannot confine him to anything. He has the liberty to be with whomever he pleases. He can develop genuine feelings for anyone. Please do not fret. If Jeremiah causes harm to Yannick, I will not hesitate to hold him ountable!¡± Cassandra was fair and treated Jeremiah and Yannick equally. Keh said, ¡°I don¡¯t care about Yannick. I only care about you!¡± Cassandra snorted arrogantly. ¡°So, why did you look unhappy just now?¡± Keh asked. Cassandra replied, ¡°Well, I thought I was thest one to know, so I was just a little angry.¡± It turned out she was the first one to find out. So she was no longer angry. Keh was left speechless, as he had not anticipated that this would be the reason. Keh escorted Cassandra back to the single dormitory. Eager for intimate moments with Cassandra, he was taken aback when she expressed concern about the size of the bed, saying, ¡°The bed is too small for both of us to sleepfortably. Would you mind sleeping on the floor?¡± Keh had to confront this issue as the bed was too small to amodate both of them simultaneously.

I want to have a baby with her!¡± Keh said. He was telling the truth. Anyway, it was the same thing. As for whether he could seed, it depended on the fate. John was speechless. How could he refuse such a request? John believed he couldn¡¯t. As soon as Keh got married, he was called here for training. He had been away for half a year, so he had left Cassandra for half a year. John thought, ¡®I should let him go! ¡°His wife must miss him.¡± ¡°His wife mus Keh left happily and went straight back to the single dormitory and took Cassandra away. They arrived at the hotel soon. Keh ordered dinner and had it delivered to the room. Neither of them had eaten dinner yet. Cassandra looked straight at Keh. She hadn¡¯t seen him for more than half a year, and his skin seemed to be more tanned, which made him look healthy. ¡°Cassie, if you keep looking at me like that, I¡¯ll eat you up right now.¡± Keh chuckled and threatened Cassandra in a gentle tone. ¡°I¡¯m hungry. You can¡¯t do that to me now, right?¡± Cassandra said. Although she had already been mentally prepared, somehow she was still a little scared. Perhaps Cassandra was still fearful after witnessing Keh¡¯s final performance before his departure.

He had requested time off from John, making every moment precious and not to be wasted. Keh held onto Cassandra until midnight, indicating a deep desire to express how much he had missed her over the past six months. Chapter 476 Chapter 476 When Cassandra woke up, Keh had already made the morning service call. As she opened her eyes, the delicious aroma of food greeted her. It made her stomach grumble. ¡°Are you awake?¡± Hearing the noise, Keh walked slowly towards Cassandra and stroked her cheek. However, what Cassandra has just engaged with a sex said next shocked him. ¡°I think you act like someone who worker.¡± Keh¡¯s hand stiffened and the smile on his face froze. He was shocked. He wondered who had taught Cassandra all these things when he was away. Keh thought, ¡®Cassie was pure and innocent. Why does she know so much now?¡± He had intended to flick Cassandra¡¯s hair, but he froze. It took a long time for Keh to say, ¡°Who did you learn this from?¡± Keh was still in disbelief. ¡°From Va¡­ Well, no one taught me.¡± Cassandra originally wanted to say she learned it from Vanessa, but she didn¡¯t dare. Cassandra though, ¡®I¡¯d better not to tell him. It¡¯s not a big deal. Anyway, it¡¯s quite interesting. Keh frowned. Did Cassandra just say ¡°Va¡°? Out of all the people that Cassandra knew, whose name began with ¡°Va¡°? After much contemtion, Keh finally set his sights on Vanessa, Gale¡¯s work curator. It became clear to him that there was no one else whose name began with ¡°Va¡± that would be suitable for the role. Lydia had a child now, so she wouldn¡¯t say those words to Cassandra. Vanessa was married but didn¡¯t seem to have any children. It must be Vanessa. ¡°Dear Cassie, don¡¯t learn from Vanessa, I only do this to you, understand? It¡¯s the fun only between us.¡± Keh felt it necessary to correct himself. If Cassandra said such words again, he didn¡¯t know how to exin. JUMMI Chapter 476 Cassandra raised her eyebrow, thinking, ¡®How could he guess it? ¡®Forget it. I¡¯d better not admit it. If he goes to question Vanessa, that¡¯ll be too bad.¡¯ ¡°I didn¡¯t learn from anyone. I learned it from TV Cassandra exined. To prevent Keh from continuing the topic, Cassandra said, ¡°I¡¯m hungry. I want to eat something.¡± She stretched out her arms after saying that, but they hurt a little. Her legs were still weak and she didn¡¯t want to move. Keh understood and let Cassandra put her arms around his neck to carry her for breakfast. Consoled by the delicious food, Cassandra became more energetic. Then she remembered something and asked, ¡°Didn¡¯t you say that you couldn¡¯t live outside? Why did you live with me at the hotelst night?¡± Keh¡¯s eyes were filled with pride as he answered, ¡°Because I told Mr. Frey that my wife hade and I wanted to have a baby with her.

Mr. Frey will simply perceive that I¡¯m eager and won¡¯t overanalyze it.¡± For soldiers like John, children were valued. In case of any mishaps befalling a soldier, his wife would still have thepany of the baby. Cassandra regretted asking the question. How could she forget it? ir was ¡°How long do you have to train this time?¡± This a little heavy. Keh looked a little guilty.

When you have time, we can hold the ceremony at any time. It¡¯s not a big deal.¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t take the wedding too seriously. What she cared about was why Keh hadn¡¯te home yet. She had grown ustomed to hispany, and his prolonged absence still felt somewhat unfamiliar to her. ¡°Cassie,¡± Keh called out, feeling guilty and acting flirtatiously. Nevertheless, Cassandra could sense his emotions. ¡°Anyway, it¡¯s just training. You should go home after it. I really don¡¯t care about the wedding. As for your training, I don¡¯t want to ask anything else. As long as you are fine, I will be relieved. I am in Drieso now and won¡¯t run away. I will be waiting for you there,¡± said Cassandra. Keh was moved by Cassandra¡¯s words. He finally had a home where someone had been missing him, and his heart was suddenly filled with happiness. ¡°Thank you, Cassie.¡± Keh looked at Cassandra affectionately. Cassandra said, ¡°Hurry up and have breakfast. I want to go out for a walk.¡± Thest time Cassandra came to Hydias, she didn¡¯t go around the city. This time, it was a short visit, but it would be nice if she could go out for a walk. ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll show you around. Today¡¯s expenses are on me, Keh said gently. ¡°You pay for every day¡¯s bills,¡± Cassandra said. Keh was speechless. He pondered, ¡®Where has the gentle Cassie of the past gone? How mischievous she has be now!¡± When Cassandra went out, her legs were still a little weak, but she wanted to climb the mountain. ¡°I haven¡¯t been to Frozen Peak Summit. Let¡¯s go climbing,¡± Cassandra sald with expectations. ¡°Are you sure?¡± Keh asked in confusion. ¡°Yeah, there¡¯s nothing to do for now. Let¡¯s go climbing now.

MMI Chapter 476 AT Q 11% 08:25 ¡°Can your legs hold on?¡± After all, they were engaged in intimacy for a long timest night. If Cassandra were to go climbing now, her legs would hurt even more. Cassandra stated, ¡°I am well. I have climbed two mountains consecutively.¡± It was not a problem for Cassandra at all. ¡°Well, let¡¯s go climbing,¡± said Keh. When Cassandra climbed up the mountain, she felt good. To facilitate her Journey, Keh opted for the cable car, which made the ascent easier for Cassandra. Consequently, she felt content upon reaching the summit. At the mountain¡¯s summit, therey an extended path of steep stairs. They had to climb all the stairs before they got to the top. Keh said gently, ¡°How about we take a look at it here?¡± ¡°I want to go there.¡± Cassandra pointed to the top of the mountain. ¡®Well, let¡¯s go there. Tell me if you feel bad.¡± Keh had no choice but to agree to Cassandra. Halfway through the stairs, Cassandra¡¯s legs began to tremble. She felt so weak. There was snow all year round on the mountain, and Cassandra almost slipped. Fortunately, Keh reacted in. time and held her. He crouched down in front of Cassandra and kindly offered, ¡°Come here. I¡¯ll carry you.¡± Chapter 477 Chapter 477 11% 08:25 Cassandra finished the rest of the steps on Keh¡¯s back. She felt helpless because she had overestimated herself. On Keh¡¯s back, Cassandra kept reflecting on herself. She should exercise more in the future, otherwise, her physical strength would decrease, which was really embarrassing. However, Keh¡¯s back was wide and warm. Even though the cold wind gusted on the mountain, Cassandra didn¡¯t feel cold. Keh carried her on his back and reached the top of the mountain without stopping. ¡°Put me down, Cassandra said, Since they had arrived, Keh didn¡¯t have to carry Cassandra anymore. The panoramic view from the mountaintop was absolutely breathtaking. Standing in that ce, they felt as though they were suspended above the clouds, as if they had tread upon the clouds beneath their feet, rendering the people at the base of the mountain invisible to them. Their vantage point seemed to transcend even the sky itself. ¡°It¡¯s beautiful. I kind of like it here,¡± Cassandra couldn¡¯t help saying. Cassandra had climbed many mountains abroad before, but this one was the most special. She was really impressed by the magic of nature here. ¡°We¡¯lle back again.¡± Seeing Cassandra¡¯s yearning eyes, Keh could tell that she really liked this ce very much. ¡°Well, we have to climb slowly in the future. It¡¯s still very beautiful here,¡± Cassandra said. She thought, ¡°I should take a moment to rest and ensure Keh respects my boundaries. What happened today can never happen again.¡± After enjoying the scenery for some time, Keh gently carried Cassandra down the steps, then they boarded a cable car and a sightseeing bus to descend the mountain. When they g got down the mountain, Yannick and Jeremiah were already waiting there. Cassandra was surprised to see them and asked, ¡°Why are you here?¡± *Boss said you were here, so Jeremiah and I came to look for you. We thought you hadn¡¯t climbed the mountain yet, but¡­¡± Jeremiah said. JJ M M Chapter 477 11% 08:25 They had been waiting at the foot of the mountain for nearly two hours.

Today is thest day of vacation. Think about how long it has been since west had dinner together!¡± Jeremiahined. He thought unhappily, ¡°What¡¯s going on? We haven¡¯t seen each other for half a year. Why is she so cold to me? ¡®She didn¡¯t take the initiative to look for me when she came here, and she even asked such a question. ¡®Although she found out the truth identally yesterday, we must meet again. How could we keep avoiding each other? Cassandra said, ¡°Come on! Just take a moment to see how long it¡¯s been since youst messaged me. Yannick even sent a few words of greetings, yet I haven¡¯t heard from you at all!¡± How dare Jeremiahin about Cassandra? Then Cassandra would have to argue with him. Keh and Jeremiah suddenly looked at Yannick. Being stared at by them, Yannick panicked. his h He cried in his heart, ¡®Mrs. Zelinski! I ¡°You should keep it a secret! I didn¡¯t message you often. I just sent a few holiday greetings to you. ¡®Mr. Zelinski must be mad at me now! *Jeremiah is probably wondering why I haven¡¯t informed him of such a thing. ¡®God!¡® Yannick rified, ¡°I haven¡¯t sent numerous messages. I simply greeted Mrs. Zelinski on holidays, which, in my opinion, is an appropriate practice for subordinates.¡± Yannick was apprehensive of Keh¡¯s scrutiny. ¡°You¡¯re quite reasonable,¡± Cassandra said, nodding with satisfaction. However, when she looked at Jeremiah, her eyes turned disdainful. ¡°Yet, not only did someone not utter a single word, they even dared to me me here!¡± she added furiously. Jeremiah was shocked. He shouted in his heart, ¡°I didn¡¯t!¡± Keh suddenly felt that the show was more interesting than punishing Yannick. M M Chapter 477 Jeremiah immediately pleaded, ¡°I was wrong.

Yannick couldn¡¯t help but think that Jeremiah was quite changeable. Jeremiah was so arrogant just now. Why did he be such a coward in the blink of an eye? ¡°That¡¯s fine,¡± Cassandra snorted and replied coldly. Jeremiah regretted it very much. Why did he provoke Cassandra?

After shopping, the four people went to have lunch. ¡°ine, when are you going back to Drieso? We will start training tomorrow morning. I can¡¯t apany you¡­¡± Jeremiah said a little sadly. After all, how could Jeremiah not miss Cassandra since he had lived with her for so. many years? They hadn¡¯t seen each other for more than half a year, which made Jeremiah unustomed. ¡°I will leave at noon. You should just focus on your training, and I have to see a patient by the way.¡± Cassandra¡¯s schedule was full. Keh raised his eyebrow and asked, ¡°What patient?¡± Cassandra responded, ¡°The former patient, who has been cured for quite a while, recently heard that I had arrived here. Consequently, she expressed her desire to invite me for dinner.¡± The patient was pleasant and not the type to be involved in any illicit activities. Cassandra just didn¡¯t expect the patient to remember her after so many years.. Keh advised, ¡°You should be more cautious when alone. Feel free to reach out if you face any issues; my phone will be on round the clock.¡± The management was lenient this time, allowing soldiers to use their phones during rest periods. With no training obligations, Keh could freely contact his wife using his mobile device at any given moment. ¡°All right. No problem,¡± Cassandra answered. JM M Chapter 477 T F 10% 08:25 Jeremiah gifted Cassandra with all the quirky trinkets he had collected during his half¨Cday breaks over the past six months. These odd little items were peculiar, seemingly insignificant, yet amusing. ¡°How do you like them?¡± Jeremiah had taken them all the way. He couldn¡¯t follow them to the hotel after dinner, so he just gave them to Cassandra now. Cassandra took the gifts and said, ¡°Not bad.¡± After they separated, Keh and Cassandra went back to the hotel. Keh embraced Cassandra tightly from behind, unwilling to release her. The passage of time was so swift that the two¨Cday holiday ended in the blink of an eye. Keh thought sadly, ¡®Tomorrow I¡¯m going back for training, and Cassie is going back too. ¡®I don¡¯t wanna her to leave!¡® ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± Cassandra felt the depressing atmosphere and asked. ¡°I don¡¯t want to let go of you, and I don¡¯t want to be separated from you.¡± Keh put his chin on Cassandra¡¯s shoulder, and she leaned against his chest. ¡°Just focus on your training. I¡¯ll wait for you toe home. It¡¯s not a big deal,¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t want to be sad. After all, sad feelings were contagious. J M M Chapter 478 Chapter 478 The next day, Keh left when Cassandra was still asleep, but the moment he closed the door, Cassandra opened her eyes. She deliberately stayed awake and didn¡¯t open her eyes. Instead of bidding farewell to Keh, she chose to adding to their mutual sorrow. Hence, it seemed more prudent to let Keh believe that he initiated the goodbye. In any case, they would be able to see each other next year, even if they couldn¡¯t meet this year. Since they were now married, they could reunite with each other sooner orter. Cassandra looked at the door nkly for a moment and then fell asleep again. After Cassandra woke up, she went to meet the patient as she said, but they just had a meal and said goodbye to each other. Because Sofia texted Cassandra that something had happened to Cassidy. It seemed that Cassidy¡¯s father checked the assets under Cassidy¡¯s name and found a lot of things missing. Knowing the news, Cassandra hurried back. Sofia went directly to the airport to pick up Cassandra. Sofia could only ask Cassandra for help because other people were not reliable at this time. On the way, Sofia told Cassandra everything.

You can take it yourself, but I won¡¯t give you the rest!¡± Cassidy¡¯s heart sank when she saw his father look at her like an enemy. Cassidy wondered, ¡®Is he really my father? Is money more important to him than me?¡± ¡°Fine. You won¡¯t tell me, right If you don¡¯t tell me, I will not give you anything to eat. I will see how long you can I hold on!¡± Soren said in fury.

Look at her! She¡¯s starving!¡± Sofia rushed up, followed by Cassandra. Seeing Sofia and Cassandra, Cassidy felt much relieved. ¡°Sofia, Cassie.¡± Cassidy¡¯s voice was a little weak, without the determination just now. ¡°It¡¯s okay.

Soren cursed, ¡°Bullshit! What¡¯s the rtionship between you? Why did you give her so much money?¡± Speaking of this, Soren suddenly thought of something and looked at Cassidy with a more fierce expression. ¡°How could you be so disgusting? Do you like women? You psycho! I will send you to a psychiatric hospital!¡± he shouted madly. Anyway, Soren believed that he could apply to the bank to transfer the money into his ount. Cassandra rolled her eves eyes. Cassidy was so angry that she shouted, ¡°Wh¨CWhat are you talking about?¡± Cassandra¡¯s expression was gloomy. She looked at Soren with terrifying coldness and said, ¡°Let me introduce myself to you. My name is Cassandra Yates from Modern Beacon Synergy and I am also the wife of Keh Zelinski who controls Zelinski Group.¡± Cassandra initially had no intention of using her identity to intimidate an elder. However, due to Soren¡¯s shameless behavior, she found it intolerable and decided to take action.. Hearing this, Soren froze. What did she say? Was she Cassandra Yates? Soren took a closer look at Cassandra and his face turned pale instantly. It was really Cassandra! She was the boss of Modern Beacon Synergy, and half a year ago, she and Keh got married. Soren cried in his heart, ¡®Damn it! ¡®What have I just said? ¡°Mrs. Zelinski, why are you here?¡± Soren¡¯s attitude immediately changed, and he became modest and ttering. JJMM I Chapter 478 TF TO U IN 104 08:26 Cassandra confidently stated, ¡°I was the one who provided Cassidy with the money. Are there any differing perspectives?¡± Given her elevated status, nobody dared to question her statement. People like Soren only bullied those who were less powerful. ¡°No, Mrs. Zelinski. I just don¡¯t know why you gave Cassidy so much money,¡± Soren said in confusion. It happened to be the amount he had lost. Cassandra casually remarked, ¡°I¡¯ve recently learned that certain parents opt not to cover their children¡¯s medical expenses and intend to have them fend for themselves. Given that Cassidy and I are friends, I cannot simply stand by and allow such a situation to unfold. I have the means to support her financially, so why wouldn¡¯t I offer her assistance?¡± Soren was taken aback, yet he refrained from disying his emotions. After all, the financial might of Zelinski Group and Modern Beacon Synergy was unparalleled. Furthermore, Cassandra held influence in both entities. 1.2 billion dors was not a big deal to Cassandra at all. Soren exined, ¡°I was just¡­ I was afraid of losing money. I didn¡¯t really ignore her well¨Cbeing. I have been contacting Dr. Quirke privately.¡± Soren was trying to defend himself. As the funds were transferred to Cassidy by Cassandra, Cassidy could request a portion to exhibit filial piety towards her. ¡°As far as I know, Dr. Quirke didn¡¯t receive your order letter,¡± Cassandra said and snorted. Then she decided to tell the truth to Soren. ¡°By the way, the money I gave Cassidy is your loss,¡± she said calmly. Chapter 479 Chapter 479 Soren was shocked. He couldn¡¯t believe what he had heard! What did Cassandra mean by what she gave to Cassidy was his loss? Was it Cassandra who had manipted everything? Why did she do that? Why? Was it because of Cassidy? ¡°Mrs. Zelinski, why did you do this?¡± Soren sought to confirm his suspicion. After all, there was no animosity between him and Cassandra, Cassandra confidently stated, ¡°Since you were unwilling to pay the consultation fee, I believe you should forfeit an equivalent amount as a living expense for Cassidy,¡± adding that she saw nothing wrong with this approach. Since Soren was a bastard, Cassandra would show him no respect. Cassandra was an equitable person. Cassidy was her friend, so Cassandra would only care about her. ¡°How could you do this? I know you¡¯re rich, but you don¡¯t have the right to do that! That¡¯s my money. I can give it to whoever I want and use it as I like. Why should you interfere with my decisions?¡± Soren questioned with a gloomy expression. Cassandra said coldly, ¡°A man who doesn¡¯t even want to spend money on his daughter is not qualified to question me. Since you want to torture Cassidy, don¡¯t me me for doing the same thing to you.¡± eyes were full of anger, and he gasped heavily as he said, ¡°You¡¯ve gone too far! Believe it or not, I will sue Soren¡¯s eyes you!¡± Cassandra extended her palms and casually remarked, ¡°Sure, go ahead. I also intend to have a conversation with the police to ascertain whether the Hansen family is as righteous as they appear to be.¡± Cassandra had gathered ample evidence, but she chose not to disclose it because Soren was Cassidy¡¯s father. Despite Cassandra¡¯s reluctance for Soren to lead a content life, she was determined to spare Cassidy from enduring hardship alongside him. At this time, Cassidy¡¯s mother Hailey hurriedly walked to Cassidy and said, ¡°Cassidy, please give your dad the money. He is the head of the family. He should be in charge of the money.¡± Chapter 470 Hailey believed that Cassidy was somewhat disobedient. She pondered the purpose of Cassidy having so much money with her Halley thought, Isn¡¯t the money all Soren¡¯s? Cassidy and I can use as much as he gives us Cassidy looked at Hailey in disbelief and questioned, ¡°Mom, the money was given to me by Cassle, not my dad. Moreover, he has lost the money, and Cassie has given it to me in a different way. Do you want me to give back the money to him? Aren¡¯t you afraid that I will die?¡± Cassidy found it unbearable to be around Hailey, who relied heavily on Soren and obediently followed his every word,cking her own independent opinions. Hailey assured Cassidy that she would take care of her illness. However, the uncertainty arises: What if Soren absconded with all the money or it was swindled? In such a situation, Halley would find herself in a state of indecision. If Cassidy hadn¡¯t met Cassandra, her life would have been ruined and she might have been dead. If Cassidy were to be softhearted once more, she might feelpassion towards Cassandra and everything Cassandra had done for her. ¡°Cassidy, your dad has treated you nicely for so many years. You could buy whatever you wanted. Why are yo you satisfied? Why did you join forces with outsiders to deal with your dad?¡± Halley med Cassidy for everything. not Hearing Hailey¡¯s words, Cassandra frowned, and even Sofia didn¡¯t look well. In a firm tone, Sofia promptly responded, ¡°Mrs. Hansen, how can you make such a statement? Hasn¡¯t Cassidy shared all her grievances with you In the past? Furthermore, the funds were provided to Cassidy by Cassandra, hence they rightfully belong to Cassidy. Additionally, the funds have been frozen by Dr. Quirke himself. Are you intending to reim them?¡± Sofia¡¯s words made Hailey and Soren stunned. What did she mean? Dr. Quirke? ¡°What are you guys talking about? What doctor? Have you been swindled?¡± Soren didn¡¯t believe what Sofia said, ¡°Let¡¯s go to the police! We must get the money!¡± he shouted. Cassandra was speechless, wondering what Soren and Hailey were thinking. Cassandra said, ¡°You don¡¯t have to go to the police. I froze the money. Without my permission, even Cassidy can¡¯t withdraw the money. If you want the money, you have to get my approval.¡± Cassandra nced at Soren Indifferently and asked, ¡°But Mr. Hansen, are you sure you want the money? ¡®Think about it. Is the money more important than the Hansen family? Is it worthwhile to invest all of the Hansen family¡¯s businesses for 1.2 billion dors? Or is it because the Hansen family doesn¡¯t have so much money now and you¡¯re so hasty?¡± Soren was furious. Chapter 470 Content ?

She saved me, but you showed no gratitude. How can you speak ill of her? Do you truly aim to ruin the Hansen family?¡± Cassidy couldn¡¯t tolerate Soren¡¯s demeanor toward Cassandra, so she promptly stood up and dered, ¡°Anyway, I don¡¯t care. If you¡¯re unconcerned about the Hansen family vanishing from Drieso, then disregard my warning. Furthermore, I won¡¯t stand by you when you lose everything!¡± Cassandra raised her eyebrow and thought Cassidy was sensible because she was not fooled by the so¨Ccalled family affection, regardless of all the demands of her parents. Cassidy did not follow the old path of Cassandra. In fact, as long as Cassidy went to withdraw the money, she would find that she could seed. No one else could. withdraw the money, not even her parents who might get the password. Otherwise, how could the money be regarded as Cassidy¡¯s guarantee? ¡°You¡­ You rebellious girl!¡± Soren cursed angrily. He considered Cassidy to be very unfilial. Cassidy said, ¡°Dad, since you love money so much, you can take back everything that belongs to me. I want nothing from you. That money is the consultation fee for Dr. Quirke to cure me. I¡¯m fine now. I can support myself In the future. That¡¯s it.¡± Cassidy couldn¡¯t help shedding tears after saying that. She didn¡¯t want such a family anymore. She felt hopeless. Then Cassidy pulled Cassandra and Sofia to leave. They were all in the room, but no one could stop Cassidy. When Soren saw that Cassidy was about to leave, he immediately asked someone to stop them. The bodyguards rushed out of nowhere. They surround the three young women immediately. ¡°You can¡¯t leave! If you dare to, just try it!¡± Soren hadpletely lost his mind. However, as soon as Soren finished his words, several people came in and surrounded the bodyguards.. ¡°I want to see what will happen if they leave today!¡± It was Ethan who spoke. Ethan had gone to the airport to pick up Cassandra, but he didn¡¯t see her. Later, he found out that she had followed Sofia to the Hansen residence, so Ethan came with his men. Chapter 479 Ethan heard Soren¡¯s words as soon as he arrived. He wondered why Soren was so bold to threaten Cassandra. Chapter 480 Chapter 480 Soren was stunned, and his eyes were full of disgust. ¡°Who are you?¡± Ethan just smiled gently. As a psychologist, Ethan had a unique temperament and looked amiable, which made people feel that he was easy to talk with. Only those who were familiar with him knew the cruelty behind his piercing eyes. ¡°Let me introduce myself. My name is Ethan, Keh¡¯s special assistant. Mr. Hansen, you must know thisdy in front of you. She is the wife of the chairman of Zelinski Group.¡± Ethan¡¯s voice was cold and deep. ¡°I wonder why you want to keep her here.¡± Keh asked Ethan to pick Cassandra up. Ethan knew that he would receive severe punishment after he came back if he failed to take Cassandra back. Soren¡¯s face turned pale. He didn¡¯t expect it would have something to do with Keh. Soren thought, ¡®What should I do now? Should I just let them leave like this?¡® This content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org. Soren hesitated and didn¡¯t say anything.

He just took in front of Soren and found the number of the head of some regtors¡­ Soren was a little scared, and his face turned pale. Soren gritted his teeth and red at Cassidy and Cassandra. Finally, he said helplessly, ¡°I¡¯m just kidding with them.¡± He forced a ttering smile, feeling bitter in his heart. ¡°Mrs. Zelinski, please¡­¡± ¡°Cassidy, will you leave with us or stay at home?¡± If Cassidy left today, it would be difficult for her to repair her rtionship with her parents in the future. Cassidy nced at her parents with red eyes. She didn¡¯t want toe back to this home anymore as her parents disappointed her. *I¡¯ll go with you,¡® Cassidy made a decision. ¡°Okay, thene with us,¡± Cassandra said. Hailey stepped forward, held Cassidy¡¯s hand, and sobbed. ¡°Cassidy, don¡¯t you want Mom? Are you going to leave me like this?¡± ¡°Mom, you only care about my Dad. If you really love me, when you know that I am sick, you will not ignore me. S Do you know how ufortable it is to be so desperate that you can¡¯t get treatment even though your family is rich?¡± 1/4 Chapter 480 Her father¡¯s attitude was very firm, and she had expected it. However, she didn¡¯t expect that her mother would hesitate when she needed the money to treat her disease. Women were usually willing to sacrifice for their children. But Cassidy didn¡¯t expect her parents to be so indifferent to her when she was about to die of illness. The thing now in front of her was that her family had enough money, but her parents didn¡¯t want to spend it on her treatment. Her mother was willing to take out some of her money, but only 20 percent of her money. Cassidy left directly with Cassandra. She didn¡¯t want to stay in that house again. Cassandra took Cassidy and Sofia to Pinehart Mansion directly. ¨¦than said respectfully, ¡°Mrs. Zelinski, the cook has prepared food for you. Shall I ask William to bring it up?¡± Cassandra nced at Ethan and said, ¡°No need. I¡¯m not hungry now.¡± I Hearing that, Sofia immediately asked, ¡°Didn¡¯t you eat food this morning, Cassandra? How about you eat some first?¡± Cassandra shook her head and said lightly, ¡°No need.¡± She looked up at Cassidy. ¡°Didn¡¯t I tell you not to get emotional? Emotional stability matters a lot now as your treatment has entered thest stage. Why are you so emotional now?¡± It had been a long time since they left the Hansen residence, but Cassandra found that Cassidy was still emotional. Cassandra didn¡¯t want anything to happen to ruin Cassidy¡¯s health again. Cassidy looked at Cassandra with aggrieved eyes and said in a hoarse voice, ¡°Sorry, I was wrong. I didn¡¯t meant to¡­ Cassidy didn¡¯t want to get emotional, but she just couldn¡¯t control herself. She had no choice. ¡°Forget it. I don¡¯t mean to me you. I just want you to remember that although you have recovered from the disease, you still need to recuperate for at least a month before you fully regain your health. Thest month is very important. Do you understand?¡± Cassidy looked like a child who had done something wrong. She lowered her head without saying anything and just nodded silently. ¡°I see. I will be careful in the future.¡± Later, Sofia asked Cassidy to move into one of her apartments. The apartment was unupied before, so it had 2/4 0 1 08:26 Chapter 4BD no furniture. Sofia thought Cassidy could buy someter. Two months passed soon. It was about to be a Christmas. Keh and the others still hadn¡¯te back. Eddie also didn¡¯te back. He seldom went home this year, and Nelson almost forgot that he had a daddy. In the following months, Eddie didn¡¯t even have a video call with Nelson. As a result, Nelson almost forgot his father¡¯s appearance. Cassandra found something was amiss with her body recently. She felt sleepy and even a little ufortable sometimes. Because Cassandra was busy developing medicines in theboratory recently, she thought it was because she didn¡¯t have a good rest and regr diet. ¡°You are a doctor. Since you feel sleepy, why don¡¯t you give yourself a check¨Cup?¡± Lydia held Nelson in her arms and looked worried. Nelson was almost one year old and had grown up a lot. He was cute. Cassandra teased Nelson carelessly and shook her head at Lydia. ¡°I was in theb in the past few days, so I didn¡¯t keep a regr diet. That¡¯s why I have a little stomachache. Don¡¯t worry.¡± Although Lydia was worried, Lydia chose to believe Cassandra since Cassandra said she was fine. After all, Cassandra was a doctor. ¡°Then take care of yourself. You should bnce your life and work.¡± Lydia paused and then continued, ¡°Besides, Keh hasn¡¯te back for a year, right?¡± Both Cassandra and Lydia had married, so they naturally came to this topic. After all, Keh and Eddie were good friends. ¡°Yes, he has nevere back since he leftst time. I don¡¯t know what happened this year. He has been training there for a year.¡± Cassandra missed Keh. Since March, Cassandra and Keh had only met once. And they only stayed together for two days at that time. ¡°Eddie is the same. He came back once after Keh and you got the marriage certificate. He came back twiceter to see Nelson.¡± There was a hint of mncholy in Lydia¡¯s tone. Lydia thought that she might have not been able to hold on had it not been for the help from Eddie¡¯s parents. She couldn¡¯t go to Eddie because she knew that Eddie would have to split attention to take care of her if she went there. ¡°They have their own missions, so we can only wait for them at home,¡± Cassandra pretended to be rxed. ¡°You¡¯re right. Fortunately, we both have our own careers. Otherwise, those days would be a bit tough.¡± dd MMI Chapter 480 Lydia agreed with what Cassandra said. That¡¯s why she didn¡¯t dare to disturb Eddie. 9 08:26 ¡°Well, let me tell you something weird. I have a friend. After returning from another city, he has been in a bad state. He coughs all day long and has a fever again and again. Now all of his family are infected.¡± Lydia was scared whenever she thought about it. She thought, ¡®Fortunately, there is no child in my friend¡¯s family. If they have a child as young as Nelson, they would be very worried.¡® Lydia felt sorry that her friend was infected with an infectious disease. Chapter 481 Chapter 481 051% 14:50 Cassandra was stunned and somewhat confused. ¡°Flu is not so infectious. Did he have been infected with other diseases?¡± Lydia also shook her head and said helplessly, ¡°I don¡¯t know. They went to the hospital for check¨Cups, but the doctors didn¡¯t tell them what disease it was. They just asked them to have a hospitalization. That¡¯s all.¡± Cassandra seemed to be thinking, but she didn¡¯t pay much attention to this matter. Cassandra thought, ¡®What kind of flu can be so contagious? They presumably are infected with other viruses.¡® ¡°Then don¡¯t go to the hospital. If you want to visit your friend, just express your concern for him through video calls. It¡¯s not suitable for you to go to the hospital now. You have to take care of Nelson.¡± Cassandra couldn¡¯t help reminding Lydia. She was worried that Lydia would go to the hospital to visit her friend and be infected. ¡°I know, Cassandra. Do you think I¡¯m silly? I don¡¯t go anywhere except my home, thepany, and here,¡± said Lydia lightly. ¡°That¡¯s good.¡± Suddenly, Cassandra received a message. [Cassie, I¡¯ve arrived at Drieso!] It was from Keh.

It had been a long time since theyst met. As Lydia had expected, Keh went home in a hurry. He left Yannick and Jeremiah at the base and asked them to find a way to go back home by themselves. Yannick and Jeremiah looked at each other helplessly. They had no idea how toe back home. When Keh returned home, he didn¡¯t see Cassandra. William was very surprised to see Keh. He asked, ¡°Mr. Zelinski, you are back.¡± ¡°Well, where is Cassandra?¡± Keh didn¡¯t say anything else. He just wanted to see Cassandra as soon as possible. ¡°Mrs. Zelinski?¡± William was stunned. ¡°She went to Whitecrane Hall.¡± Keh stopped and hurriedly turned around to walk out, only to see Cassandra running back. ¡°Cassie!¡± Keh¡¯s eyes lit up.

Since they were willing to keep the baby, she must advise Cassandra what to do. Otherwise, it would be bad if something happened at that time.

The wedding dress has been chosen, and we will take wedding photos in two days. The venue and guest list have been drawn up. Nowit depends on the time.¡± Time was a big problem.

But what maye I hope you can think for yourself and find your happiness. ¡°I was 18 when I first met you and 27 when I saw you again. Each day during the nine years witnessed my deeper love for you, and so will those in the future. I can¡¯t guarantee how long my love for you willst, but at least I will love you till my heart stops beating¡­¡± Keh¡¯s words were touching. He would love Cassandra for a lifetime, but he didn¡¯t want her to be alone to take care of him when he was sick. How selfless he was! ¡°So, Ms. Cassandra Yates, do you want to marry me?¡± Keh wanted to ask this question in person. ¡°Yes, I do,¡± Cassandra answered without hesitation. She said, ¡°Mr. Keh Zelinski, the father of my future children, are you ready to take care of us? I¡¯m neither afraid of hardships nor pain in giving birth to them, but I hope you will at least stay with me spending the hard time looking after them. I don¡¯t need your greatness. I just want you to grow up with our children. I hope they will never experience what I did. ¡°I wish they could ever feel¡¯our love and support for them as their parents after they are born. As for¡± what you said, I have something I disagree with. I won¡¯t leave you when you have difficulties because you are mine. I will never let you go until your death. ¡°I¡¯m domineering and will be emotionally unstable sometimes. So, Mr. Zelinski, please be more tolerant of me in our future life. I will change the problems that you point out¡­¡± Cassandra became very loquacious perhaps because she had been a mother. ¡°So, Mr. Zelinski, do you want to marry me?¡± She then finished with this question. ¡°Yes, I do.¡± In thements of the live streaming, people all started to freak out again. [Oh my Gosh! So touching!] [I like Cassandra¡¯s possessiveness. ¡°I will never let you go until your death.¡± I¡¯m crying!] [So envious of them. I admire their love.] [Who says there¡¯s no true love between the rich? They¡¯re so happy. I envy them!] [Are they making a show? They seem like reciting lines! No one¡¯s really touched, is he?] [What a mean guy! Is it hard to admit that they¡¯re happy in love?] [I¡¯m speechless. Why isn¡¯t he kicked out from the live streaming?] [Just ignore the anti¨Cfans..Shouldn¡¯t we wish them happy forever?] [Wish you happy forever!] [The couple I¡¯m shipping gets together! I¡¯m crying!] [I¡¯m moved! Wish you happy forever!] [Wish you as happy as you¡¯ve been!] [You must be together forever!] ¡°What touching oaths! I¡¯m moved!¡± The host didn¡¯t forget to show off at this time. ¡°The groom can kiss your bride now!¡± Receiving Keh¡¯s threatening look, the host announced obediently as nned. Keh hugged Cassandra, bent gently, and kissed her on the lips. People screamed and apuded! Tears were streaming down Lucas¡® face, the same as Maximilian! Sylvia was also ovee by Lucas¡® emotions and couldn¡¯t stop weeping. She wondered, ¡®It¡¯s so annoying to make me cry on such a good day. ¡®Cassie is finally out of her misery. ¡®It¡¯s all worth it.¡¯ ¡°Well, okay. The groom can let go of your bride now. You can continue after the wedding¡­¡± Chapter 493 Chapter 493 Keh looked at the host faintly with dangerous warnings in his eyes. Keh thought, ¡®How dare he make fun of my wife? Does he wanna die? ¡°Which weddingpany does he belong to? It¡¯s on my cklist!¡® However, everyone present began tough and even joked about it! People on the Inte alsoughed out loud. They thought, ¡®What a funny host!¡® [What the hell? That¡¯s so funny! Mr. Zelinski did kiss Cassandra for a long time, but does the host wannal be fired for saying it?] [LOL! Kiss her after the wedding!] [What? Aren¡¯t they afraid? Cassandra has two babies in her belly!] [I wanna say it, too. How can they do that with two babies? Aren¡¯t they afraid of the babies¡® protest?] [Am I weird or are you guys? The babies¡® protest? What the hell?] [OMG! Please kill me! I can¡¯t put up with it!] [They¡¯re so happy. Why do I feel that they¡¯re reluctant to stop kissing?] [Believe in yourself. They¡¯re indeed reluctant to stop. LOL.] [I Hope they¡¯ll be happy forever! I¡¯ll ship them forever!] [They¡¯re perfectly matched!] [I wanna join you guys to ship them!] [Great! They¡¯re so happy, and so are us to see them together!] As the ceremony was over, the host announced with excitement, ¡°It¡¯s time for the bride to throw at bouquet. All gentlemen anddies who want to get blessings cane!¡± Everyone rushed up, including Kayden! Jeremiah was ready, and Yannick joined in the fun. If he could get the bouquet, Yannick would take Jeremiah to register their marriage in Deris immediately. Anyway, only their passports or driver¡¯s licenses were needed to get the certificate in Deris. It was very easy! Cassandra nced at the audience. It seemed that only Jeremiah and Yannick were a couple, so¡­ Cassandra threw the bouquet at Yannick with her back to everyone. Yannick caught it quickly! Then he eximed, ¡°Thank you, Mrs. Zelinski! Thank you for your blessing!¡± Yannick raised the bouquet in his hand and ran away with Jeremiah. The audience was left stunned. Sofia felt it was weird. She wondered why she couldn¡¯t tell who was top or bottom of this couple of gays. Was it because they were both inconspicuous? ¡°Cassie, who¡¯s the top or bottom between them?¡± Sofia had been bothered by this question for a long time. After all, they were the first couple of gays around her. She was so enjoyable of shipping a couple! Cassandra felt a little speechless. ¡°I have no idea. You can ask them.¡± However, Jeremiah would never admit it. He even felt that he was at the top of them! After the ceremony, everyone began to enjoy the meal. Keh received a message from Yannick asking for leave. [Mr. Zelinski, I wish you a happy wedding. I wanna take a week off to pursue my happiness! I¡¯m gonna Deris with Jeremiah to get our marriage certificate. Thank you!] Keh was speechless. He thought, ¡®This guy is even more resolute than me! ¡°Who am I in his heart?¡± Even so, Keh approved it. A week¡¯s vacation? It would only take them two days to fly to and back from getting marriage registration. However, Yannick asked for a week¡¯s leave. Maybe he was going on his honeymoon. However, Keh didn¡¯t even have a honeymoon. How could he agree? Thus, Keh regretted it and only gave Yannick three days off. Yannick, who had been cheering at first, didn¡¯t know what to say for a moment. He had to admit that Keh was mean. Keh showed the text message to Cassandra. She raised her eyebrows and thought, ¡®They¡¯re so unrestrained!¡® ¡°What else can I do except for blessing them? As Yannick¡¯s boss, you should give him a wedding gift, shouldn¡¯t you?¡± Cassandraughed, feeling happy for Jeremiah. It didn¡¯t matter who Jeremiah loved, as long as he could be happy. None of them were born gay. They just loved someone who had the same sex as themselves. ¡°Aren¡¯t you going to give them one?¡± Keh joked. ¡°Well, no. I just received his gift. I can¡¯t return it to him.¡± Cassandra frowned and thought, ¡®The gift hasn¡¯t been opened yet. I can¡¯t give it back!! Thinking of this, she thought Yannick was going too far. Cassandra said, ¡°Reduce one day off for Yannick. Jeremiah has toe back early to work. Whitecrane Hall should be guarded during the holiday.¡± She thought, ¡®Humph, no one can escape!¡± Keh was amused by the expression on his wife¡¯s face and even felt that she was cute.. ¡°You little girl¡­¡± ¡°What¡¯s wrong with me? Am I bad?¡± Cassandra asked softly.Belongs to N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved. Keh said, ¡°No. I think you made the right decision.¡± Harper in Zosteylor had been watching the live streaming of Cassandra¡¯s wedding. He envied Kayden and even Thomas who could be by Cassandra¡¯s side while he could only hide in Zosteylor and watch it. He couldn¡¯t stand by Cassandra. What a failure brother of Cassandra! ¡°Cassie, happy wedding!¡± Harper could only mutter to himself. After he returned to Zosteylor, though he didn¡¯t want to die anymore, he had been unhappy. He was no longer qualified to be happy, was he? As soon as Theodore walked to him, he heard Harper¡¯s murmuring. Theodore couldn¡¯t even say greetings to him and just left silently. Harper nced coldly at the door. Then he turned to watch the live streaming. Seeing Cassandra in a wedding dress, Harper thought she was the prettiest girl in the world, but she would never call him brother. Darren was also watching the live streaming. His daughter¡­. Looking at this scene, Vincent felt confused and asked, ¡°Dad, if you¡¯re reluctant to leave Cassie, why did you cut ties with her?¡± Darren said, ¡°Did I want to? I thought that once she cured Leanna, we could make up for what happened. and change her mind. But what did she do? After Leanna recovered, we went directly to Clusia and wanted to stay with Cassandra. But what did she do? ¡°Leanna has suffered so much. I don¡¯t want her to suffer anymore. Is it so hard? Since all this is what Cassandra wants, I could only help her, which is also to help myself. I can¡¯t lose Leanna. I can have no one but Leanna. You won¡¯t understand me.¡± Darren put down his phone and exited the live streaming. He admitted frankly that he did it for Leanna back then. ¡°Others can sacrifice everything for their children, but you abandoned Cassie many times for Mom. No one would ept it¡­¡± Chapter 494 Chapter 494 Vincent questioned Darren. It was hard for anyone to ept such a situation. Darren and Leanna had made each choice just for the sake of each of them or Harper, thus ignoring Cassandra. Cassandra¡¯s identity was inexplicably announced on the Inte and she was cut off from the rtionship with Darren. If Vincent had been her, he might have done crueler than she did. ¡°You don¡¯t know how hard it is for me to be with your mother. If Kam hadn¡¯t forced her too hard, Cassandra wouldn¡¯t have left us. To say the least, Leanna is her mother. Should she ask for payback after curing her mother? ¡°We just didn¡¯t do as she asked, but she made Leanna lie in bed unconsciously for more than a year. How can I forgive her?¡± The more Darren thought about it, the angrier he felt. He could do nothing even though he didn¡¯t understand it, and even though he wanted to get even with Cassandra. Cassandra was too powerful for him to reach. Darren had no choice. If she was put on the edge, she might take action against Zosteylor and Theodore¡¯spany. Zosteylor could not endure the suffering. It was Leanna¡¯s country. Darren had to help her protect it.. ¡°Dad¡­ you¡¯ve been wrong from the very beginning. If you really love Mom, you shouldn¡¯t have given birth to Cassie and Harper. Now Cassie doesn¡¯t recognize you, and Harper is living like a walking corpse. Is this what you and Mom want?¡± Vincent retorted Darren, which he hardly did. The reason was that Vincent couldn¡¯t stand it anymore. Harper was like a walking corpse, with nothing but work. Vincent had seen Harper unable to sleep in the middle of the night several times. How long would itst? Even if Harper quit his idea of suicide, his tension would drive him o ¡°I don¡¯t need you to intervene sooner orter in my business. I¡¯ll never regret the decision I made.¡± Darren¡¯s tone was indifferent. He was dissatisfied with his son scolding him. Vincent realized that his father couldn¡¯t be persuaded, so he gave up. He left some words to Darren before leaving. ¡°I won¡¯t be surprised if Harper dies in Queen¡¯s Pce one day. Dad, prepare for it.¡± The dissidence of opinions made it useless to talk. Thus, Vincent chose to shut up. It was Darren and Leanna who gave Vincent and Harper¡¯s lives, so Vincent should fully support them. Darren was shocked and sat in the wheelchair with his hands trembling. Keh and Cassandra were escorted to Pinehart Mansion by arge number of guests. ¡°Let¡¯s tease the bride and the groom!¡± Someone shouted at the top of his voice. Everyone began to cheer! ¡°Don¡¯t go too far. Cassie is pregnant!¡± Selena stood in front of them and protected Cassandra behind her! ¡°Mrs. Frey, even if we can¡¯t tease Mrs. Zelinski, we won¡¯t let Mr. Zelinski go. We must live up to such a good day,¡± shouted a young man from a wealthy family. He thought, ¡®Ask me to miss such a good chance to tease Keh? No way!¡® Stunned for a moment, Selena smiled happily. It seemed as if the man who got married was her son. She said, ¡°All right. As long as you don¡¯t trouble Cassie!¡± In this way, Keh was forced to suffer by Selena. Even Sylvia echoed, ¡°Have fun today but be considerate to Cassie. Go to Keh for anything!¡± Keh was speechless. He thought, ¡®Fine!¡® Keh didn¡¯t expect that he would be ¡°abandoned¡± by Selena and Sylvia one day. ¡°Come on, Mr. Zelinski. Let¡¯s drink. You can¡¯t sleep with your wife for the time being anyway.¡± These words undoubtedly made Keh heartbroken. He gave a cold look at people, but it didn¡¯t work at this time. Anyway, Yannick was not there now, so no one could deal with them. Kayden had drunk too much, and so had Ethan. Most of the people around Keh were drunken. Therefore, people would be fine as long as they left before Keh sobered up once they made him drunk. ¡°Mr. Zelinski, don¡¯t keep a straight face on such a good day. Come on! Let¡¯s continue to drink and have fun!¡± Another rich man came and held Keh¡¯s hand. Looking at them, even Cassandra felt that there might be some personal grudges between them. Keh was alone and helpless. Surrounded by a group of people, he could only drink with them. ¡°Come on! No one is allowed to leave unless I¡¯m drunk!¡± Keh decided to risk everything. Anyway, those people couldn¡¯t let him go easily. For those who couldn¡¯t defeat him in drinking, he would get even with them the next day! ¡°Sure!¡± Cassandra sat on the side and watched them make a scene. This good feeling was just what she had expected¡­ Lydia came over with Nelson in her arms, and Cassandra wanted to hug him.Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org. Perhaps out of her pregnancy, Cassandra showed a kind of natural maternal love when she saw Nelson. ¡°Nelson, gimme a hug!¡± Cassandra reached out. Nelson allowed her to hug him with a smile. He felt Cassandra¡¯s body soft and her beautiful. He wanted to kiss her. Cassandra held Nelson in her arms. Nelson gave Cassandra a kiss on her face. The voice of the kiss was so loud that Keh heard it. However, the others who were obsessed with alcohol didn¡¯t hear it. They¡¯even did not intend to let Keh go, still pouring wine into him! ¡°Nelson, so cute are you!¡± Cassandra chuckled. ¡°When are you going on your honeymoon?¡± Lydia asked. ¡°We won¡¯t go for the time being. I may ignore my babies when I have fun. It¡¯s better to stay in Drieso and go on a trip with my babies when they grow older.¡± Cassandra thought, ¡®Anyway, it¡¯s convenient.¡°¡® Keh had a private ne, which could allow them to fly anywhere. Besides, if they have a trip inside the country, they could drive their car. There were no restrictions on going out. Cassandra just didn¡¯t want to go right now. She didn¡¯t want to be like Leanna, who ran around in pregnancy without knowing that she had been drugged by Kam. It would be more painful for Cassandra to choose one between her children than killing her. Therefore, she would rather be less free. ¡°Well, that¡¯s not bad. Anyway, I can guard the studio and Jeremiah is also here, so you just take an easy maternity leave!¡± Lydia thought it was a good arrangement. ¡°Yeah. I don¡¯t wanna be in such a hurry,¡± Cassandra said in a low voice. They were celebrating inside, while outside the Pinehart Mansion were several men. They were the sons of the Yates family. They were not qualified to attend Cassandra¡¯s wedding, so they could onlye secretly to bless her. ¡°Cassie, you¡¯re finally happy and free from your tragedy¡­ Wish you happiness,¡± Leonardo murmured. ¡°Hope you¡¯ll be happy forever, Cassie¡­¡± Chapter 495 Chapter 495 Three dayster, Jeremiah and Yannick returned. Yannick¡¯s happy face was noticeable. He and Jeremiah finally got their marriage certificate! ¡°Mr. and Mrs. Zelinski, we¡¯re back!¡± Yannick was on cloud nine. Keh just nced at them and thought, ¡®Well, Jeremiah must be the bottom!¡® With his enthusiastic look, Yannick almost showed that he was the top. ¡°Nice. You can work overtime,¡± Keh said coldly.

However, Yannick took Jeremiah to Deris to get a marriage certificate! Keh was angry. He thought, ¡°You must work overtime now.¡± Yannick was speechless. Sure enough, it was hard to hear Keh¡¯s blessing. ¡°Mr. Zelinski, it¡¯s Christmas Eve today. There must be no work, right?¡± It was because of the importance of that day that Yannick and Jeremiah came back. They wanted to gather with others, instead of working overtime.

This time, Keh and Cassandra called everyone there, including Sofia, Cassidy, Maximilian, and other members of the Yates family. Yasmine walked to Cassandra, held her hand, and said gently, ¡°Cassie, congrattions!

Even if Cassandra didn¡¯t intimately address them, it was not important anymore. Cassandra chuckled. Maximilian stepped forward. ¡°Cassie¡­¡± ¡°Grandpa Maximilian¡­¡± Cassandra no longer addressed Maximilian as ¡°Mr. Yates¡± in an aloof way. Maximilian was so excited!

You have to let them know you well.¡± Harper was stunned and didn¡¯t expect Cassandra to say it directly. He just wanted to take a good look at the twins and tell them that he was their uncle. C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org But he was afraid that Cassandra would be unhappy, so he didn¡¯t dare to say it. Unexpectedly, she said 1. it. Harper thought, ¡®Did she forgive me? ¡®But what my father and mother did went too far¡­ Cassandra said, ¡°Harper, I know what you¡¯re thinking. But I can tell you very clearly that I have no intention of recognizing Darren and Leanna in my life. Even if I have children now, I don¡¯t think I can: understand what they did back then. ¡°However, you and I are innocent. I shouldn¡¯t have imposed what they did on you. Moreover, you didn¡¯t do anything from beginning to end. ¡°I understand, so it¡¯s not your fault. That day, Kayden said that he should be the children¡¯s uncle and take care of the children. I thought of you. You are the biological uncle of them, so it¡¯s natural for you to treat them well. I hinted at you on Twitter, but you didn¡¯t even call me to ask. Well, are you going to forget about the two kids directly?¡± Cassandra saidfortingly that she had a clear distinction between love and hatred. There was nothing wrong with Harper. The reason why Cassandra treated him badly at the beginning was that they held different positions. Harper didn¡¯t know how to change, because he had never experienced grievances and hardships. He couldn¡¯t tell what was good or bad. Harper had always wanted a family reunion, but how much courage did it take for Cassandra to decide on a family reunion under that circumstance and the truth? At least she couldn¡¯t do it, never. Chapter 501 Harper suddenly burst into tears. ¡°Thank you, Cassie¡­¡± No one knew how he survived these two years. All on Cassandra¡¯s word, to support him. However, he couldn¡¯t hold on any longer. He was going crazy, but he hadn¡¯t heard from Cassandra yet. +5 Now, he seemed to have been reborn. He felt relieved. The pressure on his heart seemed to disappear at once. He was very rxed now! ¡°There¡¯s nothing to thank. You can take care of the two kids.¡± Cassandra waved her hand indifferently. ¡°No problem, just leave it to me. I will take good care of Cherry and Clement!¡± Harper hastened to promise that he would be too d to do such a thing! It would be better if no one was with him, then he would be happier! Harper said, not ignoring the kid in his arms. Abril was so cute. He was going to call Zosteylor, and he wouldn¡¯t be back for a while. For the next few days, Harper would be able to hold one child and then another with great energy. Probably he turned off his phone, so no one was able to find him. He was here, having a great time. Even Kayden couldn¡¯t help but be jealous and said, ¡°Give Cherry to me. I haven¡¯t hugged her for days. Give it to me!¡± Harper turned to the other side and protested, ¡°No, Cherry likes me. You can hold Clement for a while!¡± 3/5 Chapter 501 ¡°Don¡¯t you see that my parents have taken away Clement?¡± Kayden suddenly said to Harper with a cold. face. Kayden seriously doubted that Harper did it on purpose. Harper saw Weston being taken away and asked Kayden to hold Weston. What was wrong with him? Kayden also wanted to hold Weston or Abril. But now, he couldn¡¯t hold any of them. If he went up and robbed Weston from his parents, it was probably him who would suffer! Harper was speechless. It seemed good. Cassandra didn¡¯t worry about caring for children at all, and everyone could hold them. Harper thought for a while and still didn¡¯t give Abril to Kayden. Instead, he said, ¡°Wait a minute. After a while, your parents will give Clement to you.¡± Kayden was confused. He thought, ¡®Are you sure? ¡®Don¡¯t you know that when they hold the baby, they won¡¯t let go! ¡®What¡¯s more, Jessica and Devin were waiting for them! ¡®Will it be my turn?¡± ¡°Hurry up and let me hold Abril. I haven¡¯t hugged them for a long time. Tomorrow I¡¯m going to closed training, so no one willpete with you!¡± Kayden could only use this to get Harper to let gol Harper thought, ¡®It¡¯s okay! ¡®How about I let him hold Abril for ten minutes?¡¯ ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll give you five minutes. When the timees, you give her back to me!¡± Abril and Weston 4/5 Chapter 501 smelled sweet and soft, so it was veryfortable to hold them. Harper didn¡¯t want to let go of them at all. Cassandra was speechless and thought, ¡®Do these people take her child as a tool? ¡®Hold them in turns, but it¡¯s okay. If the children are held like this, they will not be afraid of strangers from an early age. Everyone can hug him, and it¡¯s easy to take care of them when they grow up!¡® Kayden suddenly asked, ¡°When will youe back to Zosteylor?¡± Harper felt that he shouldn¡¯t have sympathized with Kayden just now, but now kayden urged him to leave. ¡°I won¡¯t leave now! It¡¯s none of your business!¡± Harper was furious. ¡°You can¡¯t be so capricious. Anyway, Zosteylor is your responsibility now. You have to go back and take care of the overall situation¡­¡± Kayden said. Harper was speechless. 5/5 É« SEND GIFT Chapter 502 Chapter 502 Harper finally listened to Kayden¡¯s advice, but he didn¡¯t seem to listen. Then he asked Cassandra to clean up a study for him and started to deal with things in it. He dealt with Zosteylor¡¯s affairs in the morning, took care of the children in the afternoon, and dealt with some things before going to bed at night. This was already his concession! The limits of what he could do. The rest could only be dealt with when he got back. In an instant, the two children were one month old. Keh was very happy. He decided to hold a banquet! The two kids were getting more and more beautiful and cute. Everyone loved them so much that they didn¡¯t want to let go of them when they held them. This made Cassandra a little helpless! Finally, she stipted that if many people wereing, they would hold each child for ten minutes first and then let the two children sleep well. For some reason, every time these people hugged the children, the two babies dozed off more than usual and even snored when sleeping. It was like they were exhausted! They wanted to have a good rest! Cassandra didn¡¯t know what to say as a motherli 1/6 Chapter 502 They all liked Abril and Weston, so they naturally wanted to y with them when they were awake. But the kids probably didn¡¯t think so. Abril and Weston thought, ¡®They¡¯re all so weird, what are they talking about? Let me fall asleep!¡± ¡°The two babies are one month old. Are they a little heavier than when they were born?¡± Thomas was so happy to see the two kids! He held Abril in his arms and didn¡¯t let go!! ¡°It must be heavier. Otherwise, it will be a waste of food.¡± Kayden retorted immediately! ¡°I¡¯ve only seen videos and photos of them when they were just born. How do I know?¡± Thomas felt a I little guilty. Now he wanted to beat the director up! Kayden asked, ¡°How long can you stay this time?¡± +5 Thomas said, ¡°A week. I caught up with the schedule and filmed for half a month. I still have half of my movies to shoot, so I can rest for half a month. But I¡¯m afraid that if I leave the crew for too long, I will forget the plot and the feeling of acting.¡± The most important thing was that ys still depended on the expression of the opposite¡¯s emotions. If he really rested for half a month, it would be toote. Kayden nodded and didn¡¯t say anything. Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024. Kayden said, ¡°Jessica has arranged two blind dates for you. You can arrange them in the next few days.¡± He was not interested in romantic rtionships. Thomas was shocked. He thought, ¡®Can I leave now? 2/6 Chapter 502 ¡°Damn it! ¡®When did they arrange such a thing?¡± ¡°I have something else to do. I¡¯ll leave now!¡± Thomas returned the child to Cassandra. The gift had already been left in the room, and he must leave now. But he took two cards from his pocket and gave them to Cassandra! ¡°This is the fund I saved for the two babies. You keep it, and I¡¯ll go first!¡± Thomas walked freely without even looking back. Kayden took the baby contentedly from Cassandra¡¯s arms. He thought, ¡®Humph, young boy, can¡¯t youpete with me? ¡®How dare you want to keep the baby in your arms? ¡®Don¡¯t me me!¡® Seeing Kayden¡¯s expression, Cassandra asked curiously, ¡°Do they really arrange a blind date for Thomas?¡± Kayden said, ¡°They are still looking for¡­¡± Cassandra thought, ¡®Sure enough, they are brothers. How could he cheat on his brother like this?¡± Cassandra was speechless. For the children who were a month old, the waking time has increased. Abril and Weston widened their eyes, looking curiously at the person in front of them.. They didn¡¯t know them. Abril kicked her legs and didn¡¯t know what to do, but this action caused everyone tough. 3/6 Chapter 502 Keh held Abril in his arms from Kayden¡¯s hands and said seriously, ¡°Abril. Let Dad hold you.¡± He didn¡¯t care about the others holding Weston, but he had to hold his daughter. Kayden was speechless. ¡°Can the baby see the sun now?¡± Cassandra asked. Although she knew the knowledge about caring for children, raising a child required learning from the elders. She didn¡¯t have any experience in raising children, but these people here had all of them. ¡°They can go sunbathing, but it shouldn¡¯t be too long. It only takes a few minutes to get used to it,¡± Selena said. Sylvia echoed and agreed. Fortunately, it was early winter now. The weather was not very hot and the sun would not be dazzling, so they could bring children out for a walk. ¡°Selena, let¡¯s take the baby out for a walk,¡± Sylvia said immediately. She thought, ¡®It¡¯s okay to go out with the babies in my arms. Then these people won¡¯t take it away me!¡® from Among them, only Selena and Sylvia were the elder. Omar was also not here, so no one could compete with them. Cassandra was speechless. In the evening, almost all the nobles of Drieso came to the banquet for their two children. This was the banquet hosted by Keh. How could they note? 4/6 Chapter 502 Everyone wanted to take this opportunity to talk to Keh and get some projects from him! [This is the Pinehart Mansion. It¡¯s so big. Oh, my God! My vi here is like a doghouse.] [This is my first time visiting Pinehart Mansion. It¡¯s so luxurious that I feel ashamed of myself.] [In front of Mr. Zelinski, everyone is poor. There¡¯s no need to feel inferior.] [This ce is so luxurious. I envy Cassandra so much that she can marry Mr. Zelinski!] [It¡¯s no use to be envious, Mr. Zelinski is the only one in the world, and Cassandra is the only one who deserves Mr. Zelinski!] [What a lucky girl!] [A banquet for children. I wonder what the children look like!] [You don¡¯t have Mr. Zelinski¡¯s WhatsApp ount, do you? Mr. Zelinski is sharing his babies every day. My god¡­ I don¡¯t even want to see it anymore. [Are you bragging? With Mr. Zelinski¡¯s WhatsApp ount, you should be honored.] Everyone was talking about the banquet, Keh, or the children. Keh and Cassandra appeared in front of everyone with the babies in their arms. At this time, no one took the baby away from them.¡± Keh made the opening remarks. ¡°Thank you foring. Today is a banquet for my children Cherry hild and Clement. Cassie has given birth to two children at once. I am very happy! ¡°Enjoy the meal today.¡± Keh didn¡¯t show off the baby, but his hand really betrayed him. He held the baby and shook them. again and again. [Why do I feel like Mr. Zelinski is showing off?] 5/6 Chapter 502 [You are not alone.] [They are a perfect match. A family of four!] [I¡¯m tired of saying envy!] [Mr. Zelinski cares so much about his two children. If anyone can supply their children¡¯s clothes, it will be a huge profit.] [I work in children¡¯s wear. I am afraid that Mr. Zelinski will not like it.] [Of course not. Have you forgotten what Cassandra does?] [She is the designer. Do they need to find a clothing supplier?!] SEND GIFT Chapter 503 Chapter 503 Keh took the kids to walk around in front of everyone. Abril stared at them, looking very cute. However, Weston was so sleepy that he didn¡¯t even respond to Cassandra. Maybe Cassandra¡¯s embrace was too warm. Keh was a little helpless. If Weston kept sleeping, it would be tiring for Cassandra to always hold him like this. Therefore, Keh put down his daughter and carried Weston over. When hugging Abril, he could change hands or give her to others. Everyone who had seen Keh¡¯s children all ttered them.. [The two kids are so cute! They look different from the rest at such a young age!] [Yeah, it is because they have excellent parents.] [I like Mr. Zelinski¡¯s daughter so much. I even want to steal the baby and be her mother!] [How dare you! Look at Mr. Zelinski¡¯s face. How dare you have such a bad idea? You don¡¯t want to live?] [I am just kidding. I don¡¯t n to do it!] [Mr. Zelinski¡¯s children are so excellent. I don¡¯t know how many achievements they will make in the future.] [It must be extraordinary. Look at their father and mother. The child may do better in the future.] It was never toote to tter. This was an eternal truth. 1/5 Obviously, Keh was pleasant to hear these words, especially when they mentioned his daughter. Although he was also proud of Weston, he loved his daughter more. It was not until Abril began to yawn that Keh turned his attention to her and whispered, ¡°Abril, do you want to sleep? I¡¯ll take you to bed, okay?¡± Then he looked at Cassandra, and the two of them took the child upstairs. Abril just nced at and then closed her eyes to sleep with peace of mind. She thought, ¡®Weston already slept. It¡¯s time for me to sleep, too.¡± Keh Those who were good at ttering and figured out Keh¡¯s preferences got a lot of projects at this party. As long as Keh gave one to a person, the money he made from the project could be enough for a second¨Css rich family to live for a year. This was the jagged world. Those who got the project ttered Keh again and again. Others were a little frustrated, but they also understood that what Keh cared about most was his children and wife. After the banquet, Theodore and Vincent in Zosteylor couldn¡¯t stand anymore. Harper had been out there for so long that Theodore and Vincent were worried that he was trying to take the whole country into their hands. They couldn¡¯t even withstand the pressure from their father! Harper came back because of the endless calls from Theodore and Vincent. When Harper left, he was reluctant and even thought about running away. But Cassandra said, ¡°You don¡¯t want to go back to earn more money for your niece?¡± Harper thought it made sense. 2/5 Although he didn¡¯t like Zosteylor, his estate was all here. Thus, he decided to go back home and earn more money for his niece. Thinking of this, Harper thought it was also good to go back. So, on the third day, Harper went back to Zosteylor. He became different when he got there. He was not longer the sunny and innocent Harper in Clusia. He had changed into apathy and alienation. When Theodore saw Harper, he couldn¡¯t help but ask, ¡°How are Cassie and the babies? Did Keh treat them well?¡± Harper was stunned. He thought, ¡®Didn¡¯t they know? It makes sense. How could they know if Cassie didn¡¯t want them to find out? I¡¯m the same!¡® Harper said, ¡°Very good. Mr. Zelinski is also very nice.¡± Harper didn¡¯t want other brothers to reject Keh and dislike him. He thought Keh was good to Cassandra. Keh spoiled Cassandra too much. She was an independent person before. But now, Keh would pick out the fish bones for her. As if he was too experienced, the fish could remain intact. If Cassandra ate shrimp, Keh would peel shrimp for her. She didn¡¯t have to do it herself at all anymore. It could be said that her hands were deteriorating. Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024. This was also the first time he had seen someone spoiled a girl like that! He didn¡¯t know what the future would be like, but as far as he could see now, Keh was good. Cassandra loved him, too. ¡°That¡¯s good. Do you have any photos of the babies? Send me a copy?¡± Theodore held Harper. He just 3/5 Chapter 303 wanted to see the photos of the kids. Theodore and Vincent were strangers to Cassandra from now on and couldn¡¯t show up in front of her again, but¡­ ¡°Yes, you can check it on my Twitter.¡± It meant that Harper didn¡¯t want to share the phones in his phone with them. Theodore was speechless. He protested, ¡°You can¡¯t be so unkind. You said you were away for a week, but in fact, you stayed here for 20 days. You should at leastpensate us with some photos. Don¡¯t be so cruel!¡± He thought, ¡°How can he do this to me? I am not a bad guy¡­¡± Harper suddenly felt Theodore was right and shared some photos with him. He said, ¡°These are not avable on Twitter. Don¡¯t share these with others. Consider it as the payment.¡® ¡°Where is mine?¡± Vincent walked over from the other side and looked at Harper usingly. He was the one who backed Harper up. Harper nced at Vincent and said, ¡°I sent these to you, too.¡± Theodore and Harper felt that Harper had changed a lot after the trip. He had gotten softer and sunnier, though it was not obvious. They just hoped he could keep it up. Even if he couldn¡¯t be the Harper before, at least stay positive. Later, Harper went back to his room. But it seemed that someone didn¡¯t want to let him go. The door was knocked. Harper said, ¡°Come in.¡± It was Darren. 4/5 Chapter 503 When Harper saw him, his face turned cold. He didn¡¯t expect that Darren woulde over. ¡°You¡¯re back?¡± Darren asked coldly. Harper said, ¡°Yes, I am back.¡± Darren asked, ¡°How is your sister and her baby?¡± Harper replied, ¡°They¡¯re good.¡± ¡°Then why don¡¯t you go to see your mother after youe back?¡± Darren looked up coldly. +5 Harper felt annoyed. He shouldn¡¯t have such emotions, but now he was more and more repulsive to his father and mother. Especially after they did those things to Cassandra, he felt pathetic and unqualified to be Cassandra¡¯s brother. 5/5 SEND GIFT COMMENT Chapter 504 Chapter 504 ¡°I¡¯m just a little tired and I want to rest for a while. My mother already has you around, does she still need me?¡± Harper retorted in a low voice. He thought, ¡®As long as Father is with her, isn¡¯t that enough for Mother? What else couldn¡¯t Father do? He could even abandon his child for his wife. Other fathers would never make such a choice to prove their love to their wives!¡® Darren¡¯s face turned cold. He looked at Harper sharply and said, ¡°You have forgotten who you are after 20 days out, right? You will always be the son of your mother and me. She is in aa now. Shouldn¡¯t you go to see her? You have been out for so long, but you never contact us!¡± Darren scolded Harper, not because he was jealous of the fact that Harper could see Cassandra¡¯s children, but because Harper ignored him and his wife. Harper sneered, ¡°Well, do you know that your daughter experienced a near¨Cdeath experience when she gave birth to the children? Do you know you have grandsons and granddaughters? Do you know what they look like? You only care about your wife all the time. Have you forgotten that Cassie is also your child? Because of Mother, you abandoned her again and again. What do you want to do now? Do you want to hurt her again? I¡¯m telling you; she finally epted me as her brother. So, I hope you can keep your distance from me. I¡¯m not interested in the people you introduced to me. You don¡¯t have to do anything for me. I won¡¯t ept it!¡± Harper looked down on his father. As a man, he was a good husband but not a good father and son. Maximilian worked hard to raise Darren, but in the end, Darren did nothing and even abandoned the only daughter of the Yates family. Maximilian could not bear such a fact at all. For Cassandra¡¯s matter, it was all Darren¡¯s fault. However, Darren kept telling Harper that it was Maximilian who made himself so miserable. 1/4 Chapter 504 O Darren shouted, ¡°How can you talk to me like that? Listen, without my agreement, you can¡¯t do anything! From now on, if you leave Queen¡¯s Pce again, I will lock you up and keep everyone away from you!¡± He was furious. Harper snorted, ¡°Whatever. Do you think I¡¯ll still be afraid of you? If you lock me up, I won¡¯t go out at the worst. Simrly, don¡¯t ask me to do anything else. It¡¯s that simple. I really want to see who will lose more!¡± In the past, Harper might have argued for it. But now, he didn¡¯t care about it anymore. Since there was no way to resist, he could just give up and ept all these. ¡°You¡­¡± Darren snorted coldly, ¡°Aren¡¯t you afraid that I will stop you from seeing Cassandra?¡± Harper smiled bitterly, ¡°Well, Cassie doesn¡¯t need me so much. Even Cassie is afraid that I will be depressed if I go on like this. But you only care about things rted to you and Mother. As for my life, you don¡¯t care. Cassie hinted at me because she was afraid that I wouldmit suicide and wanted to find something for me.

You¡¯d better behave yourself and don¡¯t do anything that dissatisfies me.¡± Darren sat in his wheelchair, looking at Harper. Perhaps he had forgotten what gentleness was after being unable to stand and walk. ¡°Whatever. I¡¯m going to rest. You can leave now.¡± Harper didn¡¯t say anything more to Darren. He might lose his temper if he continued. Darren snorted and left without warning, ¡°You¡¯d better go to see your mother early.¡± In the blink of an eye, it had been 100 days since Weston and Abril were born. The kids got to try something with a different vor. This was new to Keh because he could feed the babies anything other than milk powder. 2/4 Chapter 504 Selena and Sylvia prepared some sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, and salty water for the little ones. ¡°Will it be OK? Will their stomach be unbearable if it is too spicy, bitter, or salty?¡± Although Keh was happy and curious, he still cared about the two kids. After all, they were his treasures. They were given to him by Cassandra. Selena smiled, ¡°No, I just dip a little bit on their tongues so they can feel the different vors. It¡¯ll be fun for the kids.¡± Cassandra chuckled, ¡°I think you¡¯re right, but I need your help.¡± Originally, she wanted both kids to take a small sip instead of just dipping a little on their tongues. However, she was worried that the smell would be too strong to make the kids cry. Now she was not in the first position in the family. In their hearts, the two babies came first. If she made them cry, she would have tofort themselves¡­. That was not worth the candle. They experimented with Weston first. Weston could ept sour and sweet vors. When he tasted sour, he frowned and couldn¡¯t help trembling. But when he tasted sweet, he couldn¡¯t help but smack his mouth. He thought, ¡°Wow, it¡¯s so delicious!¡± ¡°Weston, what¡¯s next is spicy.¡± Selena was like a grandmother incarnated as a witch, trying to scare him. After Weston tasted it, he blinked his eyes as if to say, ¡°Something is wrong and I want to try again.¡± But if Weston could talk, they would all be scolded. Suddenly, Weston stuck out his tongue, then retracted it. He thought, ¡®What¡¯s this smell? It¡¯s weird!¡± 3/4 Chapter 504 O Weston¡¯s funny behaviors made everyoneugh out loud. Sylvia thoughtfully fed him a little water. Sylvia said, ¡°Next, it¡¯s going to be bitter. Weston, keep up the good work.¡± The bitter water seemed to be balsam pear juice. When Weston tasted it, he frowned and almost cried. Cassandra curled her lips and scolded, ¡°Don¡¯t cry. If you cry, I will let you sleep alone and I will sleep with Abril.¡± Weston was speechless. Keh was also speechless. He didn¡¯t know who Cassandra was threatening. It seemed that it was also threatening Keh. Weston kept frowning. A bitter taste had spread in the mouth. He was like a puppy who would be ravaged by others, waiting for the master¡¯s help. His pitiful appearance made people distressed, but no one helped him out. 4/4 É« SEND GIFT COMMENT Chapter 505 Chapter 505 Weston didn¡¯t know the difference between different vors. He only knew that he felt something weird in his mouth. It was not as good as in water. His face instantly twisted and he wanted to cry but he remembered that Mom told him he couldn¡¯t cry. He thought, ¡®What should I do now? Something inside my mouth is annoying!¡± Just when he was at a loss, he saw the strange olddy walking to him again with a spoon! He cried in his mind, ¡®I can¡¯t eat anymore! ¡®She is a liar!¡® Selena said, ¡°Good boy, here¡¯s thest bit of it. It¡¯s so sweet and it¡¯s Grandma¡¯s skills.¡± She sounded like the wolf who was tempting Little Red Riding Hood to open the door. She wanted to deceive Weston but Weston was smart enough. He didn¡¯t want to be fooled by this weird olddy anymore. He thought she was scary. He closed his mouth and turned away from the olddy. However, the olddy was persistent. Sylviaughed out loud. She knew Weston was scared. He found everything tasting strange so he didn¡¯t want to try again. So, Sylvia took the spoon from Selena, dipped it in the bowl of salt water, and coaxed Weston softly, ¡°Honey, Grandma is here. It is not bitter or spicy. It¡¯s delicious.¡± Weston turned to Sylvia and was confused. He thought, ¡®Really? 1/5 Chapter 505 ¡®Is it true?¡± He looked suspicious. Sylvia was amused by his expression but she couldn¡¯tugh out too loud. She said, ¡°Grandma never lied to you. Trust me. You¡¯ll know it after you give it a try.¡± Weston doubtfully reached out to hug Sylvia. He thought she was very gentle. Sylvia held Weston in her arms and handed him a spoon covered with salty water. Weston licked it. Weston couldn¡¯t help crying his eyes out. Since he was born, Weston had seldom cried. After he pooped, he would only pout but he never cried. Today was the first time Cassandra heard him crying so loudly. She thought it was amazing. Cassandra looked at her son waiting for an interesting show and tutted, ¡°Why are you so sad?¡± She thought, ¡®It is rare. We often failed to make him cry. He just refused to cry but today he cried! ¡®Tut¨Ctut¡® Keh felt speechless. He thought a mother shouldn¡¯t have behaved like this at this moment. She looked somewhat gloating. Keh had a headache because Weston didn¡¯t cry, unlike his sister. His sister would asionally whine and pout. When she pooped or became hungry, she would cry. But Weston never cried but just curled his lips. He wondered if males all cared so much about their images even though Weston was just a little boy! 2/5 Sylvia hurriedly coaxed Weston. ¡°Okay, all right. Don¡¯t cry. Grandma was wrong.¡± After all, Weston hadn¡¯t cried for more than three months and he seldom whined and pouted. Suddenly, she didn¡¯t know how to Sylvia him. Selena hurriedly teased him but he didn¡¯t seem to feel anything at all. Lydia looked at the two elders and felt speechless. She didn¡¯t expect that they would gang up to make Weston cry. Lydia squatted down and whispered something to Nelson. Nelson walked toward Selena. ¡°Grandma, can you let me help you coax him?¡± Sylvia was stunned and squatted down. Nelson walked to Weston and kissed him. He patted his little hand on Weston¡¯s chest as if he was coaxing a little baby. ¡°Weston, stop crying. Mom said a Matcha man never cried!¡± Everyone else thought, ¡®Wait! ¡®What did he say? ¡®Matcha?¡® Suddenly, everyone else in the living room burst intoughter. Lydia felt amused. ¡°Son, I¡¯ve taught you. It¡¯s macho, not Matcha!¡± But she didn¡¯t know why it was so funny. Cassandra couldn¡¯t helpughing, ¡°Lydia, your son is so adorable!¡± Weston was puzzled by theirughter and even stopped crying. Soon, he realized what was happening. He thought if he couldn¡¯t continue to cry. Weston finally stopped crying. Selena and Sylvia,looked straight at Abril in Keh¡¯s arms, which meant that it was now Abril¡¯s turn. 3/5 Chapter 505 Keh was speechless. He thought there was no need to do it. Keh thought his daughter might not be able to stand any hardship. Keh said, ¡°Let¡¯s forget about it.¡± However, he was rejected directly. He couldn¡¯t refuse the two elders in front of him. So, he could only watch his daughter taste the sour, sweet, bitter, and salty water. However, Abril didn¡¯t do anything that Weston just did. As she tasted it, Abril¡¯s eyes shone more and more brightly. She even smacked her mouth. She thought it was delicious and every one of them tasted different. She wanted to have more. Just after tasting the salt water, Abril even danced and jumped up, asking for more. Nothing that Keh was worried about happened. Selena said without hesitation, ¡°Cherry, good girl, better than Weston! I can¡¯t believe nothing happened after you tasted so many of them!¡± She thought Abril was awesome. After all, Abril ate a lot but was not picky. Cassandra said, ¡°Selena, won¡¯t she be a foodie in the future?¡± Obviously, Abril was more like her mother and Weston was more like his father.

Each of them was carrying a small bowl. One of them was in Cassandra¡¯s arms and the other was carried by Keh. They kept watching each other eating the food. They looked just like a happy family but for some reason, Keh felt that something bad was going to happen. Weston had been traumatized before. This time, he was scared so he didn¡¯t dare to eat anything. He was d of some strange smell that could make him cry. So, Weston stubbornly refused to eat anything. She didn¡¯t even look at his mother. Cassandra said, ¡°Clement, this is just a bowl of soup. Look, your sister is eating it now.¡± Cassandra felt a little bit helpless. Abril would eat anything Cassandra gave to her but Weston would study everything carefully before he ate it. Abril seemed to have understood why Cassandra felt helpless so when Cassandra held the spoon near Weston¡¯s mouth, she immediately kicked at Weston. Weston was frightened, and the soup in Cassandra¡¯s spoon fell down somewhere near his mouth. Weston felt helpless. He wanted to cry but thought there was no need to cry here so he held his tears. back and licked his lips. His eyes suddenly widened as if he had found something wrong. It tasted good! He stuck out his tongue and licked his lips again in disbelief! It was really delicious! 1/6 Chapter 506 Weston opened her mouth and wanted to have more. ¡°Ah, ah!¡± Cassandra smiled softly, turned to Abril, and couldn¡¯t help but praise Weston. ¡°I know Cherry must have a way to deal with it but I can¡¯t believe you came up with such a smart trick.¡± Keh said proudly, ¡°Of course. She is our daughter. She must be the best.¡± Cassandra was speechless. However, the situation was out of control. Abril would kick Weston every few minutes on average which means: why didn¡¯t you share your food with me and why you ate so much? Weston kept being kicked. He just looked at his sister, feeling aggrieved. It was not like he didn¡¯t want to But his father ignored him. Though his mother hugged him she ignored him too. He was sitting on Cassandra¡¯sp now. Cassandra threatened Abril. ¡°Don¡¯t ever kick him again. I will beat you up!¡± Keh was a little upset and immediately said, ¡°She¡¯s just a kid. She knows nothing. This is just intimate behavior between them!¡± He was afraid that his little princess would be scared by her mom. Cassandra looked bewildered. She couldn¡¯t believe Keh just retorted her words. She thought, ¡®What does he mean? ¡®For his baby daughter, he doesn¡¯t care about me at all!¡® Keh immediately changed his mind and said, ¡°Clement didn¡¯t protest it. Don¡¯t be angry with 2/6 L 7. ? Chapter 506 Cherry.¡± Weston felt speechless. He thought, ¡®I protested!¡± Cassandra whispered, ¡°But, in this way, Clement can¡¯t eat well.¡± Keh was very tolerant of children, especially Abril. He said, ¡°It¡¯s okay. Clement has almost finished his food. It doesn¡¯t matter. So has Cherry. They won¡¯t be hungry.¡± He thought there was only one little princess in his heart and it would always be so. Of course, he would spoil her. Cassandra was speechless. Although what he said made sense, she still thought Keh was biased. Belongs to N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved. After having the meal, the two kids fell asleep. When they got up, Keh decided to teach them how to turn over. He watched the tutorial. The parents would do it first and the kids would follow them. He didn¡¯t want Cassandra to feel too tired so he followed the video twice and then put one kid on each side. The room wasrge so it had plenty of space, with a thick carpet on the floor which was very soft. So, he just started teaching his kids on the carpet. Keh said, ¡°Clement, Cherry, watch Daddy and learn from me. ¡°Daddy will do it again. You have to watch me carefully. 3/6 ¡°I¡¯ll do it again. ¡°If you have mastered it, show me! ¡°Lie down. ¡°Stretch out your leg! ¡°Ball your hands into fists. ¡°Keep it. ¡°Turn over.¡± He had demonstrated it so many times but only Weston learned it and he did it very well. Keh was overjoyed. He didn¡¯t expect that Weston could master it so quickly. Keh tilted his head to the side and looked at Abril, only to see her wide¨Copen eyes. ¡°Cherry, have you learned how to do it?¡± Abril didn¡¯t really want to learn it. She didn¡¯t think Daddy¡¯s movement was pretty! Keh felt a little helpless. He didn¡¯t expect to fail so soon. He never thought his dear daughter would embarrass him so directly. So, he got up helplessly and said to Abril seriously, ¡°Cherry, look at your brother. He has learned it already. You can also learn it quickly. You know it, right?¡± Abril turned to his brother and she thought something seemed wrong. She thought, ¡®How does he learn how to do it? ¡®No way! 4/6 Chapter 506 ¡®I will learn it too!! ¨C So, after trying many times, Abril finally learned to turn over. Then the three of them started to keep turning over together. Everyone else who had seen this would have been shocked. On a whim, Cassandra wanted to go to the monitoring room to see what her kids and her husband were doing. Soon, she was bewildered. She immediately copied the surveince video. She sent them to Keh¡¯s chat group with his friends. Unfortunately, she clicked on the wrong one. Cassandra and Lydia were also in Keh¡¯s chat group with his friends. She wanted to share another side of Keh with them but she identally sent it to a group chat where a lot of rich men in Drieso chatted with each other. Therefore, everyone in this group watched the video of Keh teaching his kids to turn over. It was quite a bomb. [Is this Keh? What¡¯s he doing?] [Are you teaching his kids to turn over? My wife taught my kids to do it. I didn¡¯t expect Mr. Zelinski to do it himself.] [I don¡¯t think he¡¯s Mr. Zelinski. Mr. Zelinski will never do this!] [Why can¡¯t he be Mr. Zelinski?

He clicked it open curiously and found something strange. It seemed that someone had posted a video about Keh. Kayden scrolled up the screen out of curiosity. Then he found people sent over 200 messages in this group chat in just five minutes. Soon, he saw the video sent by Cassandra. He wondered why she sent this video on this group chat of wealthy people. Keh¡¯s reputation would definitely be ruined. However, he saved the video smiling gloatingly. He thought it was a rare chance. He sent the video to a chat group of only a few people and sent a message: [Oh my god! Amazing! Keh takes care of the kids at home! This will be history!] Cassandra heard her phone ringing and opened it. She guessed it must be messages in the group chat. She was soon confused, She thought, ¡®What on earth is going on? ¡®Where¡¯s the video that I just sent? ¡®Why is the only video sent by Kayden?¡® Cassandra was speechless. She sent a message: [Why is this video from you? Where is the one that I just sent to you?] 1/6 She remembered she had sent it to this group chat. Kayden: [Cassie, did Keh make you angry? But you didn¡¯t have to send his video to the group chat of wealthy families. (LOL)] Cassandra was shocked. She didn¡¯t realize she had made a mistake until now. She got out of this group chat and clicked another group chat, only to find that people were discussing something. She had made a big mistake. She wanted to hack this group chat and she didn¡¯t know what else could solve this problem. Kayden: [Cassie, it¡¯s already done. You can¡¯t hack the group chat or delete the video. After all, everyone has watched it.] Cassandra: [Stop.] Lydia: [Wow, Keh is a model of a good father he learns how to make his kids turn over. John stayed. in the army when my kids were little. He missed totally it!] Eddie: [Are youining about me?] Lydia: [Yes! Did you realize it until now!] Eddie: [¡­] Kayden: [You two should go out if you want to perform public disys of affection.] Cassandra put down her phone, feeling a little embarrassed. She really didn¡¯t mean it. Could it be that she was pregnant? Seeing that she looked like in a dilemma, Keh put the two kids on the ground and walked toward 2/6 Chapter 507 her. He asked with concern, ¡°What¡¯s wrong? Why are you struggling?¡± Cassandra hesitated. (+5) Cassandra said, ¡°Well, I just shot a video of you teaching our kids to turn over. I was going to send it in our group chat, but I sent it to a group chat full of rich girls.¡± If all the hundreds of people in this group chat saw Keh¡¯s video, his reputation would be ruined. Keh was stunned. He couldn¡¯t figure out what Cassandra was talking about rich girls and the video of him turning over with his kids. He thought for a while and asked tentatively, ¡°Did you send my video to the group chat full of rich and useless kids?¡± He thought his guess was right.

Anyway, I said this kind of thing quite often.] The more Keh looked up, the darker his face became. It wasn¡¯t because theyughed at him. It was a memorable thing that he taught his children to roll over. He just saw some rudements about Cassandra. He thought, ¡®What does this person mean by ¡°what is Cassandra doing as a mother?¡± ¡°¡®What does this person mean by ¡°a woman should be divorced if she can¡¯t even teach a child¡°?¡® These words were insulting to Cassandra. Cassandra felt that Keh was angry. When she looked at him, she was a little dumbfounded. Keh whispered, ¡°Honey, I¡¯m not angry. You should send me a copy of that video.¡± He thought he should take credit for it. Cassandra was stunned so she took out her phone and sent the original video to Keh: After watching the video, Keh thought he looked okay in the video and it didn¡¯t ruin his image. After all, a twin of a boy and a girl was not often seen, which could make a lot of people envy him. Cassandra couldn¡¯t believe it. ¡°Are you really not angry?¡± Although Keh didn¡¯t pay much attention to his appearance, he was not the kind of person who would do such a thing.

But now I¡¯m angry.¡± He was looking forward to watching Cassandra coax him. Cassandra said, ¡°Then what do you want?¡± She looked serious and felt that he was deliberately doing it to force her to coax¨Chim. But, just now, she was just kidding.

Keh said, ¡°Cassie, didn¡¯t you tell me that you would make me happy if I ever got angry?¡± He sat down among the children as if saying, ¡°Come on, I¡¯m ready for you to make me happy!¡± Cassandra felt speechless. She thought he had gone too far. Cassandra¡¯s pretty little face almost twisted and she didn¡¯t know how tofort him. Keh realized it. So, he decided to help Cassandra.

As a result, they only used the nanny for the Initial few days following Cassandra¡¯s delivery; for the remainder of that time, Susan and William assisted with the work. They were, after all, Pinehart Mansion¡¯s seniors with a wealth of experience. So, they would want to keep the money they used to pay for the nanny to themselves.

That would just prevent him from making tens of millions of dors. ¡®Is that because of Mrs. Zelinski?¡± Yannick wondered. ¡°Really? Do I look different?¡± Keh asked. Yannick felt a hint of joy in his tone. ¡®It appears that he had waited for so long to get satisfied. No, he just finally got what he desired. ¡®His children have been over three months old. If he remains celibate, it doesn¡¯t make sense. ¡®If he stays celibate for too long, Mrs. Zelinski may suffer,¡¯ Yannick thought. Jeremiah knew this feeling better than others. ¡°You exude a different energy now. I feel like your body is encircled by pink bubbles,¡± stated Yannick. As for the meaning of pink bubbles, Keh knew it. He chuckled and asked secretly, ¡°Is it so obvious?¡± ¡°Good job today, double bonus this month,¡± Keh said happily. ¡°Go and get me a cup of coffee.¡± Yannick walked out happily and hurriedly made a cup of coffee for Keh.

Luckily, Keh was in a good mood, so when he saw them, he was only stunned for a brief period before handling their work. Keh carefully provided instruction to several people who were remarkably slow to respond during their consultation. He seldom took more than twenty minutes on a case. It only took a few minutes if it was quick. For those who could pass their case straight through, Keh would inform Yannick to tell the finance department that they would receive a twofold bonus. It was a hectic day for Keh. Those who ttered him all got their bonus. They were amazed that Keh would take the initiative to reward them. What a God¨Cgiven opportunity. Keh started to realize that time passes slowly after four in the afternoon and that he had been gone. for a while. It was time to go home. He wondered what Cassandra was doing at home. Therefore, he began to lose patience when handling his work. Yannick checked the time. It was four o¡¯clock already. ¡®But why so many people are still here?¡± So, he coughed to attract their attention. When everyone turned to look at him, he pointed to his watch. ¡°Mr. Zelinski, I¡¯m sorry. I told the people in my department that there would be a meeting at 4 o¡¯clock.

It turned out she was not interested in anything but reached out for Keh¡¯s Military Merit Medal. It was the first second¨Css merit that Keh got, and he almost lost a leg for it. Abril held it in her hand and couldn¡¯t help admiring it. This didn¡¯t seem to be a surprise. But everyone was talking about Abril [She is going to do what Mr. Zelinski did. It seems that there will be a female officer in the Zelinski family.] [At such a young age, she likes military medals.

Even though this was only a wish, he was nevertheless very proud. L He would support her to pursue the military if she truly wanted to, even though it was an extremely dangerous career. After Abril chose her favorite object, it was Weston¡¯s turn and everyone had a high expectation for him as well. All of a sudden, everyone looked at Weston.

But when Weston beat Nelson withposure, he took a seat on the ground. He then crawled back to his previous location and absentmindedly picked up a green money.

However, he can call brother clearly.¡± She felt extremely surprised, which meant that her son was destined to have a rtionship with the child of her boss. ¡®Look, Clement is calling Nelson now. ¡®Then he could one day call him brother¨Cinw.¡® Lydia thought.. Only Keh and Eddie didn¡¯t appear to be happy. They seemed be a little weird. Eddie stepped forward, held her son in his arms, and directly separated them ten feet away. Keh couldn¡¯t help but take two steps back as well. At this point, he didn¡¯t care about his daughter anymore. 2/5 Chapter 510 Before everyone understood what it meant, they heard Eddie muttering, ¡°Nelson, don¡¯t y with Weston. y with Abril, okay?¡± Keh also suddenly said, ¡°Weston, don¡¯t y with Nelson. You have a sister. Nelson is not good- looking. Can you only y with Abril from now on?¡± Everyone was speechless. Lydia was silent and thought, ¡®Why did Mr. Zelinski attack my son?¡± Her son was obviously more good¨Clooking than any other child. Lydia thought, ¡®Does Mr. Zelinski know how to judge people¡¯s appearance? ¡®I¡¯m so pissed off.¡± Lydia was annoyed. ¡°You¡­ Nelson is very cute.¡± Cassandra protested. As soon as she finished her words, Nelson said, ¡°Why? Weston and Abril are both very cute. But I¡­ prefer Weston. Shouldn¡¯t boys y with boys?¡± Nelson¡¯s Innocent questioning made Eddie a little ashamed. ¡®I am too narrow¨Cminded, but¡­ There must be something wrong with those two kids. In the past, there were also such brothers growing together. They ended up bing couples. He had to stop his son. It was not because he didn¡¯t want his son to be homosexual, he had no objection to it. Anyway, there were many gays in his army, so it wasn¡¯t something strange to him. But he was worried that his son would be at the bottom. Weston was only one year old, but he already started to beat his son. The point was that Nelson didn¡¯t want to fight back, instead, he tried to defend Weston. As parents, they felt tired for this kind of thing. 3/5 Chapter 510 O On the other side, Weston couldn¡¯t understand what his father was talking about. He only heard him say ¡°brother¡°. So, he started to copy him and said, ¡°Bro¡­ ther.¡± Keh was speechless. Eddie was also dumbfounded. ¡°What the hell are you doing?¡± Cassandra and Lydia asked in unison. These two men seemed to be losing their minds. ¡°Nothing.¡± Eddie and Keh also answered in unison. Selena stepped forward and pped Eddie. She couldn¡¯t help scolding, ¡°What the hell are you doing? The two kids like each other. Why did you separate them?¡± ¡°I¡­¡± Eddie didn¡¯t know how to exin. ¡°Give me the baby.¡± Selena held the child in her arms with a cold face. On the other side, Sylvia held Weston in her arms from Keh¡¯s hand. They walked to each other and put the children together. Keh made up his mind that he must educate his son to develop a normal sexual orientation in the future. In the past year, when Weston learned to trawl, walk, and call people, he didn¡¯t get close to his sister very much. On the contrary, he started dancing happily as soon as Nelson arrived. The one¨Cyear¨Cold birthday party ended with the interaction between the two children. Back to their bedroom at night, Cassandra asked curiously, ¡°What happened between you and Eddie today?¡± 4/5 C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org Chapter 510 She had never seen Keh so nervous about his son. ¡°I¡­¡± Keh told her his concerns. Cassandra was speechless. ¡°I think you¡¯re overthinking it. They are children, how can they develop in that direction? The two kids. are just close to each other.¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t believe in that. She thought, ¡®How is anyone born gay? ¡°Weston just thinks Nelson is adorable! ¡°Cassie, what if this happens in the future?¡± Keh asked. ¡°Our family does not possess a throne that can be inherited. Let him do whatever he wants. We can¡¯t make Abril work too hard, so we could only let him bring a boy home and inherit the Zelinski Group.¡± If that truly happened, there¡¯s nothing they could do. She was not an old fuddy¨Cduddy. If her son indeed liked men, he was still her son. She only needed to get an extra son. Keh was stunned and suddenly felt that his wife was so cute. He wasn¡¯t gay, and he was ustomed to the fact that there were a lot of gays in the army. Even still, he found it hard to ept it if this happened to his son in the future. 5/5 SEND GIFT COMMENT Chapter 511 Chapter 511 Four yearster, Weston and Abril had already attended kindergarten. But Nelson was already in grade one, so they could not see Nelson in the kindergarten anymore. Weston was a little unhappy, so after he went back home, he asked, ¡°Mom, why can¡¯t I be in the first grade with Nelson?¡± He had already learned all the contents of elementary school. Couldn¡¯t he skip a grade? Abril was also not very happy. ¡°Yes, Mom, my ssmates are so childish, could you let me go to sixth grade?¡± Cassandra was stunned. +5 ¡®Are you kidding me?¡± However, their intelligence was much higher than ordinary children. This was not apparent when they were one year old, but after two years of age, their amazing intelligence showed up. The two kids were only five years old, but they had already taught themselves knowledge in elementary school. But Keh and her didn¡¯t give them much guidance. This gave her a headache. If there were parents¡® meetings, when the teacher praised her, ¡°You are such a good parent. How do you teach your children so well?¡± She wouldn¡¯t know how to reply. Because she didn¡¯t teach them anything. ¡°Well¡­ you could only be in the first grade at most. Be good kids. You should not think about skipping a grade again, okay? Otherwise, you will have to stay in the kindergarten.¡± Cassandra was also very overwhelmed; it was not necessarily a good thing if the children were too smart. ¡°Okay.¡± Weston and Abril agreed directly. 1/5 Chapter 511 ¡®I can finally get rid of these kids. ¡®Finally, I can sit in the same ssroom with Nelson.¡® Weston and Abril were overjoyed. They seemed to have their own ideas. Keh happened toe in from the door. He was already in his thirties, but it seemed that time. hadn¡¯t left a trace on his face. There was only a hint of maturity on his face, not even a fine line. He asked softly, ¡°What are you talking about?¡± As soon as he entered the room, he heard the two kids saying ¡°Okay¡°, which made him confused. ¡°They want to go to the first grade. Can you arrange it for them?¡± Cassandra said softly when she saw hime back. +5 Keh raised his eyebrows and thought, ¡°What does this mean? Is kindergarten not fun?¡± He walked up to Abril and held his daughter in his arms. ¡°Cherry, isn¡¯t kindergarten fun? Why do you want to go to first grade?¡± Abril hugged his father, and said seriously, ¡°Dad, my kindergarten ssmates are too young, too childish, my brother and I don¡¯t like them. Weston wants to study with Nelson. I don¡¯t want to y with kindergarten kids, so I want to go to first grade.¡± Abril spoke very quickly and was really smart. If her mother hadn¡¯t stopped them from going to sixth grade, she would have wanted to go straight to the graduating ss of elementary school instead of first grade. Keh was speechless. It seemed that sometimes it was not a good thing for his children to be too clever. This made Keh very embarrassed. ¡°Well, I¡¯ll arrange it for you. But there is only half a month left before the end of this semester. Let¡¯s stick 2/5 Chapter 511 to it till the end, okay?¡± Keh coaxed his daughter. Since there was not much time left. For now, there was no need to send them to primary school. Abril and Weston pouted their lips. Well, they couldn¡¯t say anything else. When Weston knew his father finally agreed, he was very excited. He had asked his parents multiple times this semester, but they had refused. Their argument for disagreement was that kids should behave like kids. However, he was no longer a two- or three¨Cyear¨Cold. He thought the questions from the thirteen¨Cyear- olds were not challenging for him. Was he not regarded as a big kid? He and his sister were also good at hacking, but their mother didn¡¯t want them to show it in front of other children. It was a headache for him. When Weston told the good news to Nelson, Nelson jumped at home for a long time. +5 Eddie also retired from the army and returned to Drieso. He had plenty of time to spend with his family. now. Seeing his son jumping around excitedly at home, he couldn¡¯t help asking, ¡°Nelson, why are your so happy?¡± ¡°Dad, Weston can go to the first grade with me next semester. Godfather agreed to let him skip a grade, I¡¯ll be in the same grade as Weston again.¡± ¡®That¡¯s great,¡¯ Nelson thought. Belongs to N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved. But Eddie remained silent. ¡®This didn¡¯t seem to be a good thing.¡± ¡°Are you happy?¡± Eddie asked. ¡°Of course, I¡¯m happy. With Weston and Abril apanying me, I will be very happy. My ssmates said that I am weird, only Weston thought I was stupid,¡± Nelson replied. Nelson always ranked first in the ss and even in the whole grade. He knew all the questions raised by the teacher. He thought everyone was the same as him, but his ssmates seemed to hate him greatly. 3/5 Chapter 511 While Weston said to him that he was stupid because he didn¡¯t know how to solve some of the questions. +5 As a result, Weston would frequently call him foolish, but he would continue patiently teach him, and he would enjoy ying with Weston. ¡°Did the students say you were weird? Why? Tell daddy.¡± Eddie¡¯s expression suddenly changed. He subconsciously thought that his son had experienced school bullying at such a young age. Eddie¡¯s look scared Nelson, but he knew Eddie was merely concerned for him. ¡°Nothing. I consistently score highest on tests, and I can always find the answers to whatever questions teachers pose. My students believe that I purposefully do this to make them look stupid. They refuse to y with me for this reason.¡± Nelson didn¡¯t seem to mind this. No one bullied him or scolded him, but every time they would say that he shouldn¡¯t stand out in study because they would be scolded by the teacher as a result. But he was innocent. Eddie¡¯s face softened a little. He felt relieved. He was so scared just now. ¡°Then why would Weston say you are stupid?¡± Eddie asked. ¡®How dare Keh ask his son to satirize my son? ¡®How dare he say my son is stupid?¡® Eddie was totally furious. ¡°Because Weston said that he had already learned the knowledge of sixth grade and was ready to learn the subjects of junior high school, but he only taught me subjects of second grade. I still couldn¡¯t master *some knowledge points, so¡­¡± Nelson replied. Eddie was speechless. ¡®Keh and Cassandra were perverts. But how could their son be so perverted as well?¡® Nelson grumbled in his heart. ¡°Good boy. We don¡¯t need topare with Weston. Just being a little smarter than normal kids is enough,¡± Eddie encouraged. 4/5 ÈË 5/5 Chapter 511 +5 ¡°No, Weston will scold me. When Weston is in the first grade, he can teach me again. I like ying with him,¡± Nelson replied. Eddie was speechless again. He thought the two boys¡® rtions were bing weird if things went on like this. Finally, Nelson, Weston, and Abril studied in the same ss. They were the youngest in the first grade, but they were the smartest in the whole grade. Nelson was also the smartest in the grade. Until the end of the SAT. They were all in the same ss, but Abril didn¡¯t follow this life trajectory. Instead, she chose Cassandra¡¯s path, came back with many certificates abroad, and went straight into Keh¡¯s army to receive training. After the SAT, they studied at Juset University together. All that changed was that Weston, who had been so tender at first, grew stronger and took great care of Nelson. SEND GIFT Chapter 512 Chapter 512 (The side story was about what had happened when Jeremiah just joined Falcon Special Operations Force.) Somehow, Jeremiah was tricked into joining Falcon Special Operations Force by Keh. Falcon Special Operations Force was a good team, but Jeremiah was used to being undisciplined. Jeremiah and Cassandra had always been free. Since Jeremiah knew Cassandra, they had never been restrained for almost ten years. He had long forgotten what it was like to be restrained. When Yannick saw Jeremiah, Yannick thought that Jeremiah was quite interesting. Jeremiah even had. the guts to shout at Keh. It was rare. The most important thing was that Keh didn¡¯t get angry. It was ridiculous indeed. ¡°Jeremiah, now that you have joined into Falcon Special Operations Force, we are a family.¡± Yannick hugged Jeremiah familiarly. Yannick thought, ¡®I¡¯d better get along with him. After all, he is the man who has stayed by Ms. Yates¡® side for the longest time. Even Mr. Zelinski fails to drive him away. He may save me at the critical moment.¡±¡® Jeremiah was speechless. He thought, ¡®He is such a socializer! I don¡¯t know him at all. How can he put his arm around my neck? ¡®Although he¡¯s a socializer, he can¡¯t be like that! ¡°What¡¯s wrong with Keh? His men are all strange.¡¯ ¡°Uh, let go of me!¡± Jeremiah struggled and got rid of Yannick¡¯s arm. Jeremiah thought, ¡®We¡¯re both men. Doesn¡¯t he feel strange?¡® Jeremiah disliked Yannick very much. Yannick didn¡¯t mind it and said enthusiastically, ¡°We are friends. Don¡¯t mind it. Come on. I¡¯ll take you to your workce.¡± 1/5 Chapter 512 Yannick thought, ¡®Mr. Zelinski said that Jeremiah wouldn¡¯t be trained with us and would only be responsible for information security. Thus, Jeremiah won¡¯t work in the same ce with us. ¡®Now that Ick the chance to get along with him, I need to create the chance. When Yannick took Jeremiah to the office, those people were quite rude to Jeremiah. They were all xenophobic and arrogant. Those people who could join Falcon Special Operations Force were all capable, so they could despise others equally. However, the only one who conquered them was Cassandra. When Falcon Special Operations Force¡¯s system was paralyzed, they would have been punished and even fired from Falcon Special Operations Force if Cassandra didn¡¯t help them. Fortunately, Cassandra solved the problem and saved them. Those people werepletely impressed by Cassandra within several hours when the problem appeared and Cassandra solved it. Now Jeremiah joined Falcon Special Operations Force and would be responsible for information security. It was uncertain if he could convince these people. +5 ¡°Are you the neer introduced by Commander Zelinski?¡± One of the men thought, ¡®He doesn¡¯t look capable. Commander Zelinski has misjudged this time. ¡®Besides, he is too young and only just of age. He hasn¡¯t received any training. ¡®He looks like a toyboy!¡± Jeremiah greeted coldly; ¡°You¡¯re right. My name is Jeremiah.¡± He could feel the hostility of people here, but he understood that capable people were supercilious. Thus, it was not surprising to Jeremiah! The man said arrogantly, ¡°I¡¯m not interested in knowing who you are, but I think you¡¯re not qualified. Thus, I¡¯ll suggest to Commander Zelinski that you be disqualified from Falcon Special Operations 2/5 Force.¡± The man disliked Jeremiah. They joined Falcon Special Operations Force after they trained hard in the army. Most of them were twenty¨Cseven or eight years old. However, Jeremiah could easily enter at the age of 20. It was unfair to them. Yannick retorted with a long face, ¡°Peyton Berkeley, don¡¯t go too far. Are you questioning Commander Zelinski¡¯s decision?¡± Yannick thought, ¡®What¡¯s wrong with Peyton? Jeremiah is new here, but Peyton makes things difficult for him. ¡®Doesn¡¯t Peyton know who Jeremiah is? Commander Zelinski invites Jeremiah to join us! Jeremiah doesn¡¯t beg Commander Zelinski to let him in!¡® Peyton retorted in a cold voice, ¡°Captain Zelinski, I don¡¯t mean anything else. I just doubt his ability. I learned programming and the technology of information security when I was a child. However, I was still a newbie when I was twenty years old. If my memory serves me right, Falcon Special Operations Force doesn¡¯t need a newbie.¡± Peyton had been dedicated to information security since he was a child. To be able to join the army, he had worked so hard. Why could Jeremiah join Falcon Special Operations Force so easily? Jeremiah frowned and thought, ¡®Is the man questioning my capability? ¡®Something must be wrong with the minds of Keh¡¯s men. His soldiers are all arrogant.¡® ¡°I don¡¯t know why you feel that I¡¯m incapable. Verbal statements are no guarantee. How do you want *me to prove my capability?¡± In terms of hacking skills, only ine could make Jeremiah admit defeat willingly. ???? ¡°That¡¯s easy. Let¡¯s have apetition. Or you can choose an opponent from us. As long as you win, we will warmly wee you and I will apologize for what happened just now.¡± Peyton raised his neck and looked at Jeremiah contemptuously. Jeremiah replied, ¡°OK. If I lose, I will quit Falcon Special Operations Force.¡± 3/5 Chapter 512 Now that they would have apetition, it should be more formal! Yannick fell into a trance and persuaded Jeremiah, ¡°Hey, are you crazy? Thispetition is meaningless, okay? You¡¯re selected by Commander Zelinski. It¡¯s okay as long as Commander Zelinski knows your capability.¡± Jeremiah looked at Yannick as if he was looking at an idiot. ¡°I will work with them, not Keh. Now that they question my capability, just prove it with my capability and let the doubts disappear. As for hacking skills, I have never been defeated except ine.¡± Yannick didn¡¯t know what he could say. Yannick knew that ¡°ine¡± mentioned by Jeremiah was Cassandra. Yannick thought, Jeremiah has stayed by Ms. Yates¡® side all the time, so he must be a good hacker. ¡®If so¡­ ¡®I would like to see the show!¡® ¡°Okay, choose your opponent.¡± Peyton interrupted Yannick and let Jeremiah choose. ¡°Well, you will be my opponent. I don¡¯t bother to choose.¡± Jeremiah was toozy to think. Instead of choosing a person to defeat, it was better to let the voice of doubt disappear. Those who were not defeated would not be convinced. ¡°Okay, it¡¯s your choice. If you lose in the end, don¡¯t me me.¡± Peyton snorted coldly. His eyes were filled with contempt¡­ C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org Yannick fell silent.

Peyton defended while Jeremiah attacked. 4/5 +5 5/5 +5 Chapter 512 In about half an hour, Peyton surrendered. Peyton was unable to defeat Jeremiah! Jeremiah was so capable! It was surprising!

Captain Berkeley has lost.¡± ¡°Does it mean that this neer is awesome?¡± ¡°Certainly. Even Captain Berkeley is inferior to him. Isn¡¯t he awesome?¡± The people in the office began to discuss gingerly, but Peyton didn¡¯t mind it. Capability was the most important thing here and the best proof. On the contrary, Peyton was very happy. The neer was so capable. It was a good thing for Falcon Special Operations Force. It would be better if Cassandra could join in. Their department would be more capable than the information security department of National Security Bureau. ¡°Jeremiah, you¡¯re awesome. I lost!¡± Peyton generously admitted that he was inferior to Jeremiah. ¡°I apologize for my recklessness and verbal injury just now.¡± Peyton stood up and gave a standard military salute. ¡°I didn¡¯t take it seriously. I like challenges. Never mind. You are also very capable.¡± Jeremiah didn¡¯t know how to make a standard military salute, so he just nodded gently and forgot what had happened. ¡°Okay, I like your character. You are my friend!¡± Peyton smiled brightly as if he was not the one who scorned Jeremiah just now! Jeremiah was speechless. 1/5 Chapter 513 Yannick said, ¡°Peyton, you¡¯ve gone too far. I knew Jeremiah first. He is my friend!¡± Somehow, when Yannick saw Peyton being intimate with Jeremiah, Yannick felt annoyed. If Peyton were Yannick¡¯s man, Yannick would punish Peyton by running 50 circles on the yground. Otherwise, Yannick would feel sorry for himself!

Why did he want toe back after only one day? Cassandra replied, [It¡¯s not a game. Don¡¯te back until you be a captain.] Jeremiah was shocked! Cassandra had gone too far! She wasn¡¯t friendly at all! Jeremiah thought, ¡®I shouldn¡¯t havee back from Sadeepl ore to this damn Falcon Special Operations Force out of curiosity!¡® Yannick saw that Jeremiah was in a dilemma, so Yannick took him to the yground for a walk. 2/5 Chapter 513 +5 ¡°Jeremiah, we are all socializers.

Few people could understand the friendship in the army. Ordinary people didn¡¯t understand this kind of spirit, so it was normal for Jeremiah to have such a reaction. Jeremiah said, ¡°I know. I just don¡¯t get used to it. It¡¯s a little scary.¡± Jeremiah was just twenty years old. Normally, his peers were sophomores in college and would be somewhat surprised to meet these people. He was defeated by their enthusiasm! It was so scary¡­. ¡°Don¡¯t worry. You will get used to it. Many people are not here today. Otherwise, it would be more bustling.¡± Yannick couldn¡¯t help but want to tease Jeremiah. At first, Yannick felt that Jeremiah was quite cute and looked like an arrogant young master. ¡°Here, besides Mr. Zelinski, I will also protect you. You ask for help from me if you need any help!¡± Yannick was willing to help Jeremiah. Jeremiah squinted his eyes and thought, ¡°Why is he so nice to me? What does he want? *¡®Has Keh asked him to teach me a lesson? Humph, Keh is scary.¡°¡± ¡°I think I can do it myself.¡± Jeremiah refused and thought, ¡®If Keh arranged for Yannick to y tricks on me, I would be in trouble!! Yannick was speechless.

I will take you to eat something that can only be found in the base!¡± Jeremiah raised his eyebrows and thought, ¡®I¡¯m a foodie.

But this dish was Yannick¡¯s favorite in the base. 5/5 É« SEND GIFT Chapter 514 Chapter 514 One monthter, Jeremiah found that this was the character of these people. They couldn¡¯t get in touch with many people, so their thoughts were very simple. Compared to them, Jeremiah¡¯s thoughts were much moreplicated. Fortunately, Jeremiah had been assimted! After he got familiar with them, he felt that they were very nice! It would be better if Yannick could keep a little distance from him! Suddenly, they received an urgent task! Falcon Special Operations Force was needed. Jeremiah was one of them. This was the first mission Jeremiah took part in. He had to admit that he was a little nervous. Peyton said to him, ¡°Our mission this time is to hide the whereabouts of Falcon Special Operations Force and rescue the people we are going to save. The mission is simple but arduous. Inevitably, you don¡¯t get used to it for your first mission, but we are all here. If you have any questions, ask us. ¡°We have nothing but more experience than you.¡± Peyton¡¯s words made Jeremiah rx. In the rescue process, Jeremiah yed a leading role all the time. He not only covered everyone in Falcon Special Operations Force but also found the trapped people with precision. Jeremiah was decisive in this operation! Yannick was about topliment Jeremiah when Yannick noticed that someone was aiming at Jeremiah. ¡°Get down!¡± Yannick shouted at Jeremiah! Jeremiah felt confused. Why? 1/6 Chapter 514 When Jeremiah came back to his senses, it was toote. The person had fired! Just when Jeremiah thought that he was going to die or get hurt badly, Yannick rushed at him! Yannick threw Jeremiah to the ground and held Jeremiah in his arms! This posture made Jeremiah feel confused and strange! ¡°Hmm¡­¡± It was ridiculous! Yannick didn¡¯t get up from Jeremiah until the person was caught. At that moment, Yannick felt that the dumbfounded Jeremiah was a little cute. Jeremiah might have been frightened by the gunshot. Normally, Jeremiah shouldn¡¯t have been frightened. Cassandra was so powerful, and Jeremiah shouldn¡¯t be so timid. Jeremiah stood up and asked with concern, ¡°Did you get shot?¡± ¡°Absolutely not. How can I get hurt?¡± Yannick¡¯s back hurt. ¡°I heard you moan. If you didn¡¯t get hurt, why did you moan?¡± Jeremiah wanted to confirm his suspicion, so he wanted to go around behind Yannick and see what was going on. However, Yannick was determined not to show it to him! Thus, Yannick avoided Jeremiah. ¡°I¡¯m fine. Don¡¯t worry. Let¡¯s go. We need to assemble!¡± Yannick avoided Jeremiah awkwardly. Jeremiah said with dissatisfaction, ¡°If you didn¡¯t get hurt, why didn¡¯t you let me have a look? We are both men. Don¡¯t be shy.¡± Jeremiah thought, ¡®What¡¯s wrong with Yannick? Why is he so shy?¡® Yannick was stuck for words. ¡°If my memory served me right, you were the shiest when you first entered the base!¡± Jeremiah¡¯s expression changed. He frowned! 2/6 Chapter 5141 Why did Yannick rake up the past?! ¡°Captain Zelinski, your back is bleeding! Did you get shot?¡± Someone suddenly came over and saw Yannick¡¯s back.

Of course, Jeremiah was concerned about him. Yannick was stuck for words. Jeremiah even knew how to threaten him. Jeremiah had changed indeed! Yannick stood there and showed Jeremiah his wound. Yannickughed and joked, ¡°It¡¯s not a big deal. I just need to fetch the bullet and apply some medicine. We are used to getting hurt every year.¡± Jeremiah pulled a long face and was in a bad mood. ¡°Sorry, I reacted too slowly.¡± If Jeremiah had reacted faster, Yannick wouldn¡¯t have been shot. Jeremiah was weak in detection and perception. When ine was by his side, she was always the leader. Thus, Jeremiah had never thought about whether he would get hurt! However, because of Jeremiah¡¯s slowness, Yannick got hurt. 3/6 Chapter 514 Jeremiah didn¡¯t know how to face Keh! ¡°It¡¯s okay. It¡¯s not a big deal. I told you that you could trust me.¡± Yannick thought, ¡®I won¡¯t let you get hurt.¡® Yannick was shocked by his own thoughts. Yannick thought, ¡®Oh, my God! What am I thinking? ¡®What strange words I have said!! ¡°I know.¡± After the mission, Yannick was taken to the hospital by Jeremiah. All the people in Falcon Special Operations Force were shocked. Yannick was injured and went to the hospital! Yannick seldom went to the hospital. Even if he was injured, he would deal with it by himself unless he had no choice! But now he had gone to the hospital! Yannick seemed to feel less pain than normal people, maybe only half of it. That was why he could still joke with others after getting shot. He didn¡¯t care about his injury. Anyway, he would not die. In the hospital, Yannick was ordered to lie in bed by Jeremiah. The doctor had removed the bullet and dressed the wound. ¡°Take a rest here. You¡¯re not allowed to go anywhere. You need to lie on the bed for three days at least. I¡¯ll ask for leave from Keh for you.¡± Jeremiah thought, ¡®How can he act like nothing happened after being injured? He even wants to report to Keh and go to Zelinski Group. ¡®Who does he think he is? 4/6 !? Chapter 514 ¡°Won¡¯t he die?¡± Yannick exined helplessly, ¡°I¡¯m fine. When I was injured before, I seldom came to the hospital.¡± But Jeremiah didn¡¯t listen at all! ¡°You don¡¯t need to pay the medical bills. I will be responsible for it. You just need to stay here obediently! Don¡¯t be so wordy like an olddy!¡± Jeremiah red at Yannick. ¡°Alright, you¡¯re the boss.¡± Yannick looked at Jeremiah with great interest. Looking at the busy Jeremiah, Yannick suddenly had a strange feeling. Jeremiah was the only person who cared about Yannick so tantly except for Ethan. Keh cared about them, but Keh wouldn¡¯t speak it out. As long as they said what they needed, Keh would satisfy them. Keh wouldn¡¯t care if they were injured, but he would avenge them! However, Jeremiah¡¯s concern seemed to be different. Jeremiah was so arrogant, but he still reprimanded Yannick like a wordy elder and asked Yannick to lie on the bed. This feeling was great for Jeremiah. Yannick thought, ¡®No! What am I thinking? It¡¯s strange!¡± ¡°Well, I told Keh that he would give you a week off. Have a good recuperation.¡± Jeremiah¡¯s tone wast resolute. ¡°Okay, you¡¯re the boss. I will listen to you.¡± Yannick gave 1. in. He suddenly felt that staying in the hospital was not bad. Besides, Jeremiah would apany him. It was morefortable for Yannick to stay in the hospital than Zelinski Group. Thus, Yannick decided to stay in the hospital. 5/6 Chapter 514 Jeremiah was satisfied with Yannick¡¯s obedience. That was right! Otherwise, Jeremiah would feel sorry and guilt for Yannick! 6/6 ? SEND GIFT 0 COMMENT Chapter 515 Chapter 515 In order to enjoy Jeremiah¡¯s private service and care, Yannick came up with the idea of living in Jeremiah¡¯s dormitory after leaving the hospital. Yannick thought, ¡®We¡¯re both men, anyway. It doesn¡¯t matter. ¡®Besides, Mr. Zelinski won¡¯t care about these things. It¡¯ll be great to let Jeremiah serve me nearby! ¡®I¡¯m already excited to think about it!¡± Yannick said weakly, ¡°Jeremiah, I haven¡¯t recovered yet, and Mr. Yates won¡¯t go back to the base. I¡¯ll be alone at night. What if something happens to me?¡± Yannick acted just like Keh. Yannick suddenly realized that if Keh had used this trick before, he would have taken Cassandra down long ago instead of waiting until her freshman year in college. This trick had great effects on girls. ¡°You can ask otherrades to help you,¡± Jeremiah replied indifferently. He thought, ¡®I¡¯ve been serving him in the hospital for a week. How could he push his luck?!¡± ¡°They don¡¯t know the condition of my injury. How are they gonna help me? You are so familiar with it. Just help me out. After all, my injury¡­¡± Yannick didn¡¯t finish his words, but Jeremiah already understood what he meant. Yannick didn¡¯t intend to take advantage of this injury to let Jeremiah do something for him. It was just that Jeremiah was really stubborn, so he had no choice but to do so. the¡°. ¡°Alright, alright. I¡¯lle to you every night and apply the medicine for you.¡± Jeremiah thought, ¡®It¡¯ll just be a little troublesome. It¡¯s not uneptable. ¡°Forget about it. It¡¯ll be too much troublesome. My dormitory is not close to yours.¡± Yannick pretended to be regretful. 1/5 Jeremiah was speechless. He thought, ¡®So what the hell does this jerk wanna do?!¡± ¡°Alright, then. What do you want?¡± ¡°Mr. Yates is in my dormitory, so it¡¯s not very convenient. What if hees back¡­ So, I¡¯ll just move to your dormitory.¡± Yannick¡¯s eyes looked so bright and cunning that Jeremiah couldn¡¯t help rolling his eyes. Then he asked Yannick in a very speechless tone, ¡°Dude, why do you have to live in the same dormitory with me? Even ine and I have never lived in the same room!¡± Yannick immediately retorted, ¡°Don¡¯t say that. If you do, believe me, you will be the next one who will be sent to Ounca.¡± Yannick thought, ¡®Jeremiah is working for Mr. Zelinski now. If Mr. Zelinski hears about it, it¡¯ll be easy for him to send Jeremiah to Ounca!! Jeremiah didn¡¯t know what to say. He thought, ¡®Although Keh is domineering, he treats me not bad. He knows about the rtionship between me and ine. To put it bluntly, it was possible for us to sleep in the same bed under the conditions at that time. ¡°But we didn¡¯t do that. ¡®It would never happen.¡® ¡°Don¡¯t worry. Keh dare not to do that. I¡¯m ine¡¯s friend, after all.¡± Jeremiah thought, ¡®Wanna scare *me? No way!¡® Yannick thought about it for a while and felt he was right. Jeremiah had protection, but he didn¡¯t. Therefore, the next one who would be sent to Ounca might be him. ¡°Anyway, we are buddies. Why can¡¯t we live in the same dormitory? Other dormitories all have four in one room. It¡¯s already quite good!¡± Yannick started to act shamelessly.

This is the absolute freedom that Keh has promised me. I cane and go freely. ¡°So I can live wherever I want!¡® Yannick was really happy after he achieved his goal.

He thought, ¡®I¡¯m into Jeremiah? No way! We¡¯re just friends!

He narrowed his eyes and couldn¡¯t help asking, ¡°What are you thinking about? Save that until we go back to the base. 4/5 Chapter 515 You can find a good position and make yourself the Thinker.¡± Jeremiah didn¡¯t want to stay in the hospital any longer. +5 The training had just finished, and he already missed Cassandra a lot. He wanted to go back to eat the food she cooked.. ¡°Then I have to be naked? Forget about it.¡± Yannick came back to himself and heard that Jeremiah wanted him to sacrifice for art. No way! When Yannick looked at Jeremiah again, he found that Jeremiah seemed to be good¨Clooking. He was not particrly handsome but was cute and handsome at the same time. His face was really good- looking. His facial features were also delicate, and his skin was fair, which was in contrast to Yannick¡¯s. Yannick¡¯s skin was a little tanned because of the training, but Jeremiah wasn¡¯t tanned at all. Yannick thought, ¡®His face¡­ is so tender that I want to pinch it.¡¯ Then he was shocked. He thought, ¡®How could I have such a ridiculous thought?

Yannick thought, ¡®It shouldn¡¯t be like this. Isn¡¯t Jeremiah the most cunning one? Why does he look so stupid aftering to the base? ¡®He hasn¡¯t even asked about it?¡± Jeremiah was stunned.

That person agreed without hesitation and promised to deliver it within ten minutes. Jeremiah was speechless. He didn¡¯t know what to say. ¡°So, this is the discipline of the Falcon Special Operations Force? You guys excluded me, scared me as soon as I came here, and even lied to me. You can deliver food, but you refuse to do it even if I¡¯m willing to pay an errand fee. Looks like I¡¯m really inessential.¡± It was really bad. At least Jeremiah felt really bad. After all, he joined the Falcon Special Operations Force because he wanted to show his talents, and he also wanted to haveradeship. However, the fact showed him that it was just his illusion. They were only good to their ownrades. For an outsider, no matter how capable he was, it was useless. After all, they were all capable. Yannick didn¡¯t know what to say. He knew that hisrades were a little exclusive, but he didn¡¯t know that even Jeremiah was also excluded. ¡°I¡¯ll give you an exnation about it. Don¡¯t take it seriously. I will handle it tomorrow. What do you think?¡± Yannick stopped acting yfully and said seriously. Jeremiah snorted coldly. ¡°No need. This is my business. I have other ces to go if I¡¯m not wee here. I can even join ine and work for the National Security Bureau. There will always be ces that can make me shine.¡± Jeremiah didn¡¯t care about it. He had joined them for more than a month. Although he got along well with the people in the information security department, he could still feel their distrust, but he didn¡¯t expect such a thing. He thought that they treated everyone equally, but it was not true. ¡°Come on. Mr. Zelinski tried so hard to poach you. No one is more important than you. Don¡¯t care about what others say,¡± Yannick hurriedly exined. If they offended Jeremiah, Cassandra wouldn¡¯t let off the 3/5 Chapter 516 Falcon Special Operations Force. Cassandra could make the Falcon Special Operations Force¡¯s firewall impregnable, and could also destroy it in an instant. Yannick knew how much Cassandra cared about her people. He sighed. +5 ¡°Don¡¯t bother. I have something else to deal with tonight. Have your dinner in the canteen. I¡¯ll go home first.¡± Jeremiah took off his apron and left. Jeremiah thought, ¡®Screw them, ¡®To put it bluntly, I have little contact with those people, but we¡¯re all in the same force. Should everyone be treated equally? How could they treat members differently? ¡®Looks like there are not only strong people but also petty people in Keh¡¯s force. ¡®I like Peyton¡¯s condition. He has doubts means that he¡¯s confident in himself. People who¡¯re really strong won¡¯t be scheming.¡¯ Seeing that Jeremiah left directly, Yannick was worried. He thought, ¡®Damn it. Mr. Zelinski is gonna be angry. ¡°What should I do? ¡®Should I get angry and punish them first? ¡®Besides, Jeremiah is not going back to the Springmount Townhouse, is he? Then we¡¯ll really be screwed!¡® Yannick was right. Jeremiah went back to the Springmount Townhouse and even interrupted Keh¡¯s good time. Keh was speechless. He thought, ¡®Damn it! 4/5 +5 Chapter 516 ¡°Why would hee back at this time? Has he finished all his work at the base?!¡± ¡°Keh, you are here. Great. I have something to say.¡± When Jeremiah saw Keh, he got angry at once. Keh frowned, not knowing what had happened. ¡°What is it?¡± ¡°I want to quit the Falcon Special Operations Force. You can¡¯t even discipline your force properly. There are so many interesting people there. So funny. Since they¡¯re so exclusive, I¡¯m gonna quit. I¡¯ll just focus on Whitecrane Hall and The Urban. They¡¯re no worse than your force!¡± Jeremiah thought, ¡®Screw them! I have my own business. I¡¯m quite busy. Why should I join the Falcon Special Operations Force?! ¡®They even excluded me and treated me differently. Ridiculous!¡± ¡°What happened?¡± Keh didn¡¯t understand what had happened to Jeremiah. Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024. Jeremiah said, ¡°Humph. They questioned my ability as soon as I went to your base. Although I proved my own strength, the kitchen treated me differently. They could deliver the food to the dormitory, but they refused me even if I was willing to pay the errand fee. I offered 40 dors! Is that you guys¡® discipline?¡± 5/5 Chapter 517 Chapter 517 Keh was still a little confused. He thought, ¡®So Yannick did it in front of Jeremiah, and the people in the kitchen agreed without even hesitation? ¡°He¡¯s right. Whoever met this would think he was treated differently. If it was me, I would go upstairs and beat them up directly. ¡°People in the Falcon Special Operations Force care about strength the most. If you have enough strength, you should let them know it. Beat them up if you can defeat them. You will just be punished at worst, but they will listen to you. Do you need me to teach you this?¡± Keh said coldly. Keh was not the kind of person who always obeyed the rules. When he was in the army, he often fought with others and even made someone hospitalized for a month. He just got detention for many times. But this was the quickest way to impress and convince others. Otherwise, those people wouldn¡¯t have been following him so loyally. Jeremiah was speechless. He said, ¡°You¡¯re really good at teaching. How could you incite me like that? You know that I¡¯m not good at fighting but you asked me to fight with others. What¡¯s your purpose? Do you think ine will leave me alone if I get injured or stay in the base? Humph, listen carefully, Keh. Cassie and I are family. She won¡¯t leave me alone!¡± Jeremiah was pissed off by Keh. He thought, ¡®What the hell is wrong with him? What kind of suggestion is that?!¡± Cassandra also realized that Jeremiah got bullied in the Falcon Special Operations Force. ¡°If you feel ufortable in the Falcon Special Operations Force, just quit. You can join the National Security Bureau. No one there can defeat you except me. You can handle them well,¡± Cassandra said 1/6 Chapter 517 coldly. Now Keh was speechless. He thought, ¡®I poached Jeremiah into the Falcon Special Operations Force. ¡®Now Cassie is trying to poach my person?¡® Keh said, ¡°Cassie, you¡¯re my girlfriend, but¡­¡± He couldn¡¯t give in for the sake of the force. ¡°No. As I said before, if Jeremiah is unhappy in the Falcon Special Operations Force, then he can quit. He has a lot of businesses, anyway. He¡¯s very busy. Besides, he can choose the National Security Bureau.¡± Cassandra was the one in charge, so no one could bully Jeremiah. Jeremiah instantly had a feeling of being protected. He thought, ¡®It¡¯s so good! ¡®ine is the best indeed!¡® Jeremiah raised his head proudly. He thought, ¡®See? Someone got me!¡® Keh said, ¡°Cassie, it¡¯s not like that. ¡°This is a problem indeed. I¡¯ll handle it. Could you not poach Jeremiah so soon?¡± Keh negotiated with Cassandra. It was not that Jeremiah was his only choice, but the Falcon Special Operations Force¡¯s information security department needed Jeremiah. Jeremiah was trained by Cassandra. Maybe even the second hacker on the hacker list could not defeat Jeremiah. Keh was aware of the problem when the base¡¯s firewall was breached. Cassandra couldn¡¯t join the Falcon Special Operations Force since she was in the National Security Bureau, so Jeremiah was the only choice. 2/6 Chapter 517 Moreover, Jeremiah didn¡¯t need a political examination or background investigation at all, Keh wast not worried that Jeremiah would betray the force. His perseverance was stronger than many people in the force. Cassandra and Jeremiah raised their eyebrows and decided to give Keh another chance. On the other side, after Jeremiah left, Yannick met the person who delivered the food. That person even joked warmly, ¡°Captain Zelinski, are you gonna cook? I¡¯ve seen all the other people in the force cook, except you. It¡¯s quite rare.¡± Yannick was speechless. ¡°But don¡¯t you live in the same dormitory as Captain Yates? Why did you move here?¡± that person continued. ¡°Captain Zelinski, the person who lives in this dormitory is a neer and doesn¡¯t know the rules at all. He even wanted me to deliver food to him. Why should I? Who knows what kind of person he is? He was directly appointed by Mr. Zelinski. Maybe he¡¯s a minister¡¯s rtive.¡± That person felt that what he said really made sense. Even Yannick was almost convinced. When Yannick came back to his senses, he kicked that person and said, ¡°What the hell is wrong with you? We are allrades. How could you treat him differently? You¡¯ve delivered food to every dormitory in the force. Why can¡¯t you deliver to this dormitory?¡± ¡°Who knows what kind of person he is? We should scare him first.¡± That person still felt he was right. *¡°Captain Zelinski, you can¡¯t kick me just because of a neer.¡± ¡°Well, if I can, I want to kill you now. Do you know who the neer is? Commander Zelinski invited him to join us in person! He had thought about it for a long time before deciding to join us. Strength? He defeated Peyton on the first day he came here with information technology. How dare you suspect Jeremiah?¡± Yannick was furious. He didn¡¯t expect that there would really be such a person in the force he trained. Yannick thought, ¡°How embarrassing! 3/6 ¡®I even wanted to tell Jeremiah some tips. ¡®I didn¡¯t expect that it was my soldier who deliberately treated Jeremiah differently. Jeremiah didn¡¯t mention the errand fee, so I wanted to give him a good impression. But it turns out that he was turned down even if he offered four times the errand fee that I gave them! ¡®Damn it! ¡®If Mr. Zelinski knows about it, we will all be screwed!¡® ¡°What? Commander Zelinski invited him to join us in person?¡± That person widened his eyes in disbelief. He couldn¡¯t believe it. Belongs to N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved. ¡°Why would I lie to you?¡± Yannick said coldly. ¡°Captain Zelinski, what should I do, then?¡± ¡°Get lost!¡± Keh returned to the force the next day and summoned everyone. ¡°I heard that you still have a big problem with the neer I sent here?¡± Keh¡¯s voice was cold and firm. ¡°Since you still have different opinions, tell me now, I¡¯m free today. I can apany you to question the neer. ¡°Jeremiah, step forward!¡± ¡°Yes, sir!¡± If Keh hadn¡¯t forced Jeremiah into the car and brought him back, Jeremiah really didn¡¯t want to come back. Maybe he had stayed in hisfort zone for too long, so he just wanted to rely on Cassandra and assist her. Since these people couldn¡¯t be hisrades, he didn¡¯t want to bother fitting in. 4/6 Chapter 517 ¡°Whoever has any questions, feel free to say!¡± Everyone kept silent. The man in the kitchen was already trembling. He didn¡¯t expect Keh to back Jeremiah up. He thought, ¡®Why on earth would I provoke him?!¡± ¡°Sirl¡± ¡°Say it!¡± ¡°I want to know why you let this man join the Falcon Special Operations Force!¡± ¡°For the information security department, of c course. What else could it be? He is the only person who was taught by Emery in person. Can¡¯t you guess how capable he is?¡± Keh stunned them. They thought, ¡®He was taught by Emery? ¡®So he¡¯s Emery¡¯s disciple? ¡®We all know how good Emery is!¡± ¡°I remember that someone challenged Jeremiah the first day he came here. Aren¡¯t you gonna tell everyone the result?¡± Peyton immediately said, ¡°Sir, it was me! I lost!¡± 5/6 Chapter 518 Chapter 518 Peyton thought, ¡®Although it¡¯s a little embarrassing to lose, it¡¯s not difficult to admit it. I lost, and Jeremiah is better than me. I have no problem with that. ¡®We belong to the same team. Isn¡¯t it good to have a strong one? ¡®If something happens, Jeremiah can handle it by himself. ¡°We¡¯re a teant, not individuals. Personal strength doesn¡¯t matter, butprehensive strength does!¡® Yannick didn¡¯t know what to say. He thought, ¡®You admit it quite fast, dude.¡± Keh looked at Peyton seriously and then looked at everyone. ¡°I invited Jeremiah to join us. I thought the Falcon Special Operations Force was a united team, but I didn¡¯t expect that you guys would exclude someone. Do you wanna humiliate me?!¡± Although they didn¡¯t feel guilty, they were all responsible since the neer was bullied. ¡°You are at the forefront and doing the most dangerous work, so I¡¯ve built your dormitories ording to the best standards. You all have a kitchen and a separate bathroom. If you miss the food of your hometown, you can cook by yourself. All the ingredients are avable in the canteen, and you only need to sign. Is that difficult?¡± Keh said coldly. ¡°Answer me!¡± ¡°No!¡± Keh looked at them with a cold face and said, ¡°Since it¡¯s not difficult, why did you embarrass the neer? I knew that you guys would take an errand fee for delivering the food to the dormitory, and I acquiesced. I even let people support it, because I hoped you could treat everyone equally. But look what you¡¯ve done. You treated the veterans well but excluded the neers. Do you think you¡¯re powerful by doing that?!¡± 1/5 Chapter 518 Keh also wanted to protect Jeremiah because of Cassandra. The fact that Jeremiah never had any feelings for Cassandra all these years was already enough to let Belongs to N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved. Keh protect him all his life. This was not a big deal at all. Besides, such a thing shouldn¡¯t have existed. Since Keh had known it, he had to handle it well. The people in the kitchen were a little scared. After all, they all listened to their leader in this matter. Their leader refused Jeremiah all the time, insisted on letting hime to the kitchen to get the food, and even gave him the food that was not quite fresh. It was bad indeed. ¡°Are you all gonna keep silent?¡± ¡°Sir, it¡¯s our fault. We¡¯ll apologize to Jeremiah!¡± One of them spoke first. +5 They thought, ¡®Commander Zelinski has said that we can¡¯t clique. Since the kitchen made mistakes, it¡¯s also everyone¡¯s fault!¡± ¡°Right!¡± ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Jeremiah!¡± Everyone shouted to apologize to Jeremiah. Jeremiah didn¡¯t know what to say. *This was not what he wanted. He just wanted the kitchen to apologize, but he didn¡¯t expect this to happen. What should I say?¡± Jeremiah stood in front of Yannick and whispered for help. ¡°Don¡¯t say anything. Just leave everything to Mr. Zelinski,¡± Yannick replied softly. ¡°Sir, I was the first one who reported this issue to you. I should apologize, too. I got injured in thest mission. Because of my injury, Jeremiah wanted to go to the kitchen to get some food and cook in the 2/5 Chapter 518 dormitory. I didn¡¯t expect that he was gonna go to the kitchen in person, and he even said that they refused to deliver food to him even if he offered an errand fee. I thought it was really bad¡­¡± Jeremiah looked confused. He thought, ¡®I went home and told Keh about it. Why does Yannick want to take the responsibility?¡® +5 Yannick¡¯s thought was very simple. He couldn¡¯t let Jeremiah be excluded again because of this matter. His strength was already much better than the information security department. They should treat him respectfully. If the kitchen hated Jeremiah because of this matter, he might meet more problems afterward. ¡°Well, this is bad indeed¡­¡± Keh knew what Yannick was thinking and didn¡¯t expose it. Those people in the kitchen were even more scared. ¡°Although you have apologized, those people in the kitchen must be punished. During your punishment, I will transfer some people from other ces to cook. Just stay in your rooms. Write the self¨Ccriticism first before going there,¡± Keh said coldly. However, Keh also thoroughly let them know what a team was. He punished everyone to run for six miles. They shared the good and the bad together. Jeremiah was shocked. He thought, ¡°Won¡¯t that be too much?¡® Yannick also wanted to run with them but was stopped by Keh. ¡°Save it until you recover. If you *hurt your wounds again, it¡¯ll affect your work.¡± Yannick was speechless.¡± If possible, he wished that Keh could not say thest sentence. It was really hurtful! Without thest sentence, Yannick would feel that Keh was really concerned about him. He thought, ¡®Tsk. Only Mr. Zelinski will show his concern so implicitly. 3/5 Chapter 518 ¡°Yes, sir.¡± Yannick epted it happily. Anyway, he had rested for a few days, so it might be a little difficult for him to run now. +5 This matter was satisfactorily finished. Jeremiah was stunned by how Keh handled it and couldn¡¯t talk about quitting again. He used to be free, but now he was tied up in the Falcon Special Operations Force. He was still not used to it. For a long time after that, everyone was afraid of Yannick because he would report. But after getting along with him for a few days, they found that he was only hostile to bad things. He would never report trivial things. This matter ended. When Kayden, who hadn¡¯t returned to the dormitory for a long time, came back again, he found that his roommate was gone. He thought, ¡®Where¡¯s he? ¡®Why¡¯s his stuff also gone?!¡± ¡°Where¡¯s Captain Zelinski?¡± Kayden grabbed someone and asked. ¡°Captain Yates, don¡¯t you know that Captain Zelinski has moved to live with Jeremiah for a long time?¡± The person was a little confused. He thought, ¡®It has happened for a long time. ¡®Why doesn¡¯t Captain Yates know about it?¡® Kayden was speechless. He thought, ¡®No one has told me that! So only I¡¯m alone now? ¡°What the hell?! 4/5 Chapter 10 ¡®Fine. Jeremiah is Cassandra¡¯s friend. I can¡¯t use him.''¡± ¡°Alright. You can leave now.¡± Kayden waved his hand helplessly. He could only ept it. Now Jeremiah spent most of his time in the base and asionally went back to the Whitecrane Hall, so he was suitable to be Yannick¡¯s roommate. But Kayden was different. After he came back to Drieso, he still needed to handle thepany¡¯s affairs, so he would be really busy. ¡°How about going to Yannick first? It¡¯s time for dinner. I remember that Jeremiah can cook,¡± Kayden whispered to himself. He felt that he could have dinner with them. After all, he could only eat but knew nothing about cooking. That was the fatal problem. Then he went straight to Jeremiah¡¯s dormitory. When he reached the door, he smelled the stew. It smelled really authentic. Kayden couldn¡¯t wait to knock on the door. Jeremiah and Yannick were surprised. They thought, ¡®Who They had already gotten along very well. They looked at each other and then Yannick said, ¡°Shall we open the door?¡± Yannick didn¡¯t want to open the door. He thought, ¡°Which bastardes to disturb us?!¡® 5/5 Chapter 519 Chapter 519 ¡°Sure. There won¡¯t be many people at this time,¡± said Jeremiah. He thought, ¡®Someone is already knocking. How could we ignore that? ¡®Fortunately, we¡¯ve prepared a lot of food. It¡¯s enough to share with others.¡± Yannick nodded helplessly. He thought, ¡®Alright. Jeremiah is the host. He makes the decision.¡± When Yannick opened the door, he found it was Kayden. He was a little surprised and asked, ¡°Captain Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org. Yates, when did youe back?¡± ¡°Just now. I found that you had moved out of the dormitory and then heard that you had moved in here, so I came to have a look.¡± They were all acquaintances, so Kayden directly got in. Jeremiah was surprised. He thought, ¡®Isn¡¯t he ine¡¯s cousin? ¡®He came here¡­¡± ¡°Are you eating stew?¡± Kayden didn¡¯t know what Jeremiah was thinking, but his implication was obvious. He hoped they could understand it. ¡°Have you had dinner yet? Have some with us if you haven¡¯t.¡± Jeremiah couldn¡¯t help but roll his eyes in his mind. He thought, ¡®I wouldn¡¯t invite him to stay and have dinner with us if he didn¡¯t look so greedy. ¡®s. Although ine doesn¡¯t treat Kayden quite well, she hasn¡¯t done anything. It means that ine still takes them as her friends. Those things were trivial, but she just couldn¡¯t get over them.¡® Therefore, Jeremiah wouldn¡¯t treat Kayden badly. ¡°Well¡­ Alright, then!¡± Before Jeremiah could speak, Kayden directly sat down in Yannick¡¯s seat. ¡°Thanks.¡± 1/5 Chapter 519 Yannick was speechless. He thought, ¡®Get up! That¡¯s my seat! ¡®No, I can¡¯t argue with him. That¡¯s Mr. Yates!¡± Yannick could only ept it, got a chair and sat next to Jeremiah. He thought, ¡®But I¡¯m closer to Jeremiah now!¡± Kayden tried the stew and thought, ¡®Hmm, It¡¯s really good. Are the people around Cassandra all so good at cooking? ¡®I¡¯m so jealous. ¡°This is really good. It¡¯s even better than what those restaurants sell outside,¡± Kayden praised without hesitation. Kayden felt that he hade at the right time. Yannick picked up food for Jeremiah casually. His movements were very natural, and even Jeremiah was already used to it as if it was really ordinary. At first, Kayden didn¡¯t take it seriously. After all, not everyone was as creepy and picky as Keh. It was normal for friends to pick food for each other, But then Kayden felt something strange. He thought, ¡®Didn¡¯t Yannick pick up food too frequently? Most importantly, Jeremiah epted them all. Even if he frowned, he still didn¡¯t refuse Yannick. ¡®Well¡­ Don¡¯t tell me that they¡¯re in love with each other?! ¡®That¡¯s so shocking!¡± 2/5 Chapter 519 After a few days, the way they got along with each other seemed to have be stranger. Kayden pulled Yannick aside and asked curiously, ¡°Are you into Jeremiah?¡± If Kayden remembered correctly, Jeremiah hadn¡¯t even reached 20 years old yet. He was just a teenager, so Kayden could only ask Yannick about it. Yannick was stunned and hurriedly denied it, ¡°That¡¯s impossible. Mr. Yates, we are both men. Besides, how can I fall in love with a man? No way.¡± Kayden didn¡¯t believe that at all. ¡°Do you think I will believe you? ¡°Think about the way you get along with Jeremiah. Isn¡¯t it like how your master gets along with Cassie? You even picked up food for each other so naturally. How could you do that if you didn¡¯t have feelings for him?¡± Yannick was stunned. ¡°Mr. Yates, you¡¯ve misunderstood us. Jere and I are just friends.¡± Yannick wanted to exin but he had no reason to convince himself. This was so embarrassing! ¡°Yannick, Jeremiah is still young. It¡¯s easy for him to have feelings for someone. If you don¡¯t think you have a crush on him, go to Ethan for psychological counseling and ask yourself about your true thoughts.¡± After saying that, Kayden left. Yannick stood there confusedly. Jeremiah saw Kayden but didn¡¯t see Yannick, so he went to look for him. ¡°What are you doing? Why are you in a daze here?¡± Jeremiah patted Yannick and wondered what was wrong with him. ¡°Nothing. Go back to the dormitory first. We don¡¯t have training these days, so you can also go home. I have something to deal with and need to go to Ethan.¡± Yannick¡¯s expression suddenly changed. Yannick left directly, leaving Jeremiah there in confusion. 3/5 Chapter 519. When Yannick left, he met somerades. Someone wanted to put his arm around Yannick¡¯s shoulders, but as soon as he raised his arm, Yannick threw him away. ¡°Damn it! It hurts!¡± Yannick finally came to his senses and said, ¡°Are you alright?¡± ¡°Captain Zelinski, although I¡¯m not Jeremiah, you can¡¯t just throw me away!¡± That person held his waist and stood up. He felt that his waist was almost broken. He felt Yannick was so heartless. ¡°What the hell are you talking about?!¡± Yannick pretended to hit him, but that man dodged. ¡°Wait, it¡¯s true. You never put your arm around other people¡¯s shoulders before, and you would rather be punished than eat the leftover food on other people¡¯s tes. But you would put your arm around Jeremiah¡¯s shoulders and could even eat the food he left. You¡¯re treating us differently! I thought you could finally get so close with everyone!¡± That personined. Yannick was stunned. He thought, ¡®No way! ¡®Did Jeremiah and I do that? ¡®I wouldn¡¯t even allow Ethan to put his arm around my shoulders. ¡®But now¡­¡± ¡°Go back first. I have something else to deal with.¡± Yannick ran away, He felt that he had to ask Ethan about it. *That person muttered, ¡°He¡¯s just into Jeremiah. There¡¯s nothing to be ashamed of. There are so many people here who are like that.¡± Eth?n was a little stunned when he saw Yannick. ¡°What are you doing here?¡± He felt that something was wrong with Yannick. ¡°Check me up. I might be sick.¡± Yannick sat in front of Ethan and reached out a hand. 4/5 Chapter 519 Ethan was speechless. Ethan said, ¡°Dude, I¡¯m not a traditional medicine practitioner. That¡¯s not the way I do. You got the wrong person.¡± Yannick hurriedly withdrew his hand. Seeing that, Ethan just said, ¡°If you are sick, go to the doctor. I am a psychologist and only deal with psychological problems.¡± ¡°I¡¯m having psychological problems. Help me.¡± Ethan immediately got interested. ¡°Then tell me, what is it?¡± ¡°I¡­ I seem to treat a man differently.¡± Yannick thought, ¡®This should be a psychological problem, right?¡® ¡°You mean Jeremiah?¡± Ethan was not surprised at all. He thought, ¡®I didn¡¯t expect him to realize it so soon. I thought it would cost him about one or two years more. He has already noticed that? Not bad! ¡°How did you know?¡± ¡°Isn¡¯t that obvious?¡± 5/5 Chapter 520 Chapter 520 +5 ¡°Jeremiah and I are normal. Why do you think we¡¯re abnormal? Mr. Yates, even our men think that too.¡± Yannick felt like he was going crazy. What did these people mean? Ethan nced at Yannick coldly and said, ¡°You think you¡¯re normal. What is normal?¡± Yannick was speechless. Of course, they were normal guys. Ethan said, ¡°Think about your attitude towards us. Think about your attitude towards Jeremiah. ¡°There was another question. Before, you called Jeremiah ¡®Mr. Lawson¡® in front of us. That¡¯s all right. But since when did you call him ¡®Jere¡®? You didn¡¯t notice it yourself.¡± Ethan¡¯s words made Yannick a little confused. How was it possible? ¡°I treat you the same as I do Jeremiah!¡± Yannick was stunned. How could he call Jeremiah ¡°Jere¡± naturally? Was it because¡­ Ethan didn¡¯t speak. He just put his arm on Yannick¡¯s shoulder, and Yannick immediately jumped up. ¡°What are you doing? Men can¡¯t do such an imitate action,¡± Yannick was a little unhappy and immediately protested. Ethan shrugged and said, ¡°You see, I can¡¯t put my arm around your shoulder even though we are, friends. Then why can Jeremiah? Or why do you want to be intimate with Jeremiah? Don¡¯t you feel ufortable?¡± Yannick fell silent. Was it awkward? He didn¡¯t. He was even happy. ¡°Then let me ask you one more thing. If you see Jeremiah and I being very close, how do you feel?¡± Ethan¡¯s question was not that harsh, but it got to the point. 1/5 Chapter 520 Yannick didn¡¯t know how to answer. How did he feel? He may want to kill Ethan. Even Ethan was his best friend. So what? He just couldn¡¯t see Jeremiah and the others¡­ +5 ¡°It seems that you want to kill me, right?¡± Although it was true, he felt bitter after others said it out loud. It was not good at all. Yannick was silent. ¡°You were injured to save him. And when Ms. Yates was kidnapped, you were more anxious than him. Why? Is it for Mr. Zelinski, or are you afraid that Jeremiah will never have a family again?¡± Ethan¡¯s question made Yannick at a loss. ¡°I¡­ I just¡­¡± ¡°Yannick, it¡¯s not a terrible thing to like men. People like us can love anyone. You are qualified and capable. Jeremiah is also one of the best people in Drieso, so even if you two are together, it doesn¡¯t matter. ¡°The most important thing is that you can recognize your heart. If he and I do the action like you two did, you will want to kill me. When the bullet came, you stood in front of him without hesitation. You care about him no matter what. + ¡°I think you should think about it. Maybe you really like him.¡± Ethan¡¯s words were like nails in Yannick¡¯s mind. *He didn¡¯t know how he left Ethan¡¯s house. All he knew was that when he got home, Jeremiah looked different there. ¡°What¡¯s wrong with you?¡± Jeremiah felt the man was mad, but he had no proof. ¡°Nothing¡­¡± Yannick said coldly. 2/5 Chapter 520 It was about half a month after consulting Ethan. Yannick seemed to understand why he acted like that. Because he saw someone confessing his love to Jeremiah. How could a man confess his love to Jeremiah? That was crazy. Although Jeremiah refused, Yannick was still very ufortable. Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org. He really treated Jeremiah differently. He liked Jeremiah? Instead of being frightened by the idea, he was d that he had finally figured it out. ¡°Yannick, are people in the army so terrifying? How could they like me? We¡¯re all men,¡± Jeremiah couldn¡¯t helpining in the dormitory because he was scared. Although homosexuality was normal, he had never thought about it. That was weird. ¡°Is it scary?¡± Yannick was shocked. Did Jeremiah not like men? ¡°It¡¯s not that scary. I know many¨Cmen like men, but I don¡¯t like that very much. It¡¯s kind of scary to confess his love to me.¡± Jeremiah still had some lingering fears and thought the army men were a little scared. ¡°What if someone likes you but is the same sex as you?¡± Yannick couldn¡¯t help asking. He wanted to know if he had a chance¡­ ¡°How can I know this question? Unless I like him too, then I can ept him.¡± Jeremiah suddenly looked at Yannick with a different look. If Yannick confessed his love¡­ It was not that repulsive anymore. 3/5 Chapter 520 It seemed to be eptable. +5 ¡°What if it was me? I like you. Do you ept me? Are you willing to be with me?¡± Yannick asked directly. It was not suitable for him to make thingsplicated, so he asked directly. Whether Jeremiah epted him or not was OK. If they were impossible, they could take it as a joke and keep being friends. ¡°I¡­ I don¡¯t know.¡± Jeremiah didn¡¯t treat Yannick like the one who confessed, which gave him a glimmer of hope. If he didn¡¯t refuse directly, it meant that Yannick got a chance. ¡°Jere, I like you. I didn¡¯t know how I felt about you before, and I asked Ethan for psychological counseling. I was not sure at first, but when I saw someone confess his love to you, I understood my feelings. I hate the person who confessed his love to you. I locked him up in the dark room. You are mine. No one can take you away from me.¡± Yannick¡¯s affectionate confession shocked Jeremiah. ¡°You¡­¡± ¡°You don¡¯t have to answer me now. You can tell me when you think it over. I can wait, no matter how long.¡± It was not an easy road. He knew it, so he wanted Jeremiah to figure it out before being with him. Love was not a spur of the moment. ¡°What do you like about me?¡± Jeremiah didn¡¯t understand that he had no merits or even special skills except forputer skills, and was not worthy of being liked. No one liked him more than ine. ¡°Yannick, I think we¡¯re not¡­¡± But it seemed that he couldn¡¯t say the word ¡°suitable¡°. ¡°Don¡¯t hurry to reply. I just want to tell you my feelings. If you like me, then I will wait for you to get ready. If¡­ Then I respect your decision.¡± Yannick¡¯s words gave Jeremiah a sense of security. ¡°Let me think about it. I don¡¯t know.¡± Jeremiah felt a mess in his head. 4/5 Chapter 521 Chapter 521 Jeremiah¡¯s heart was in a mess. What happened to Yannick? How could he confess his love to him like others? Did he look gay? He just didn¡¯t want to have a girlfriend, but that didn¡¯t mean his sexual orientation was abnormal. Jeremiah probably didn¡¯t realize that he had a different attitude towards Yannick. When Yannick. confessed his love, he stammered and couldn¡¯t say no, but when others confessed their love, he refused directly or even fought with them. This might be the difference. The dormitory instantly fell into silence, and the atmosphere was somewhat delicate. Jeremiah felt a little ufortable. He frowned and said, ¡°I have to go back to Whitecrane Hall. I¡¯m leaving now.¡± He couldn¡¯t stay here anymore. Jeremiah chose to leave. The most annoying thing was that he could not tell ine about this matter. What if ine rejected him? If she thought something was wrong with him, the loss would outweigh the gain. He went back to The Urban silently and stayed on the fifth floor. His whole mind was in a mess, not knowing what to do. Yannick watched Jeremiah leave the dormitory helplessly. He couldn¡¯t stop him and had no position to tell him not to go. Jeremiah was free, even independent, and even his master gave him freedom. So how could Yannick control him? Kayden originally nned to go to the dormitory for a meal but found that there was only Yannick left. He looked around and didn¡¯t find that person who could cook. He asked curiously, ¡°Where is Jeremiah? Did you fight?¡± It didn¡¯t look like they had fought. Was everything okay? ¡°He¡¯s going home. I don¡¯t think he wille back for a while.¡± Yannick was a little frustrated. As long as 1/5 Chapter 521 he thought of Jeremiah¡¯s actions to refuse him, he felt sad. What a terrible feeling. ¡°Well, why?¡± ¡°I confessed¡­¡± Yannick became more frustrated. Jeremiah was avoiding him. Kayden¡¯s eyes widened in disbelief. ¡°Are you serious?¡± ¡°What else could it be?¡± ¡°So he refused you?¡± Kayden thought for a while and said, ¡°There¡¯s something wrong. There should be no response. You must have scared Jeremiah.¡± Yannick kept silent. He must have been a man who knew fate in his previous life. ¡°Mr. Yates, is there any way?¡± Yannick thought he was really crazy. He asked Kayden to help him. If Kayden¡¯s ideas were bad, then he would be screwed. ¡°I can¡¯t help you. This is between you two.¡± Kayden stood aside with his arms crossed and seemed to watch a fantastic show. ¡°However, I heard that many men in the base have been confessing their love to Jeremiah recently. You¡¯d better hurry up. After all, he¡¯s very popr.¡± Yannick said, ¡°Mr. Yates, you¡¯re wrong. Jeremiah is not some normal guy. He can¡¯t ept someone so easily.¡± He retorted directly, feeling that Kayden was ruining Jeremiah¡¯s reputation. But he had no evidence. ¡°Well, who do you think he should like?¡± Kayden looked at Yannick with great interest. And the word. ¡°gossip¡± was all over his face. ¡°I don¡¯t know. Just let him be happy. No matter who he chooses, I will respect him,¡± Yannick pretended to be tough and said. He had no other requirements. If Jeremiah refused him, he then hoped that Jeremiah could find someone he truly liked. 2/5 Chapter 521 ¡°What if he finds another man? Can you ept he finds a girl or a man after rejecting you?¡± Kayden¡¯s words made Yannick a little confused. He didn¡¯t seem to have thought about this question, but Kayden just said it out loud. ¡°¡­¡± Yannick was lost in thought.. Could he not mind? Not mind if he liked other women or men. No, he minded. He would mind if Jeremiah found a man. ¡°I have something else to do. I¡¯ll go out first, Mr. Yates,¡± After saying that, Yannick left. He even took out his clothes and changed them into new ones. Kayden was a little confused. He came here for a meal, but none of them were in the dormitory now. Did. they ever think about his feelings? Why were these people like this? In The Urban, the door was suddenly opened when Jeremiah was still in a daze. It was Yannick. Why was he here? ¡°Why are you here?¡± Jeremiah asked nkly. ¡°I¡¯m here to find you. Have you made up your mind?¡± Yannick sat opposite Jeremiah trembling, looking a little embarrassed. He was a little rash. How could he be so reckless? ¡°Do you think I can figure it out?¡± Jeremiah couldn¡¯t help rolling his eyes. What the hell was wrong with Yannick? How long had he juste out? Could he think it through in such a short time? ¡°But¡­¡± It had been a long time. Why couldn¡¯the figure it out? ¡°Jeremiah, I have a question for you.¡± 3/5 ¡°Go ahead.¡± ¡°We confessed. I want to know why you can say no to others, but not me?¡± Yannick¡¯s question stunned Jeremiah. He had never thought about it. Jeremiah opened his mouth and didn¡¯t know how to exin, but Yannick did not give him a chance to exin. ¡°Does this mean that I still have a special position in your heart? Or you¡¯d have kicked me out, right? ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter that you don¡¯t like me now, but I will wait until you agree to make that special position in your heart unique. At least you are unique in my heart now,¡± Yannick said affectionately. Jeremiah panicked. ¡°But I¡¯m an orphan: I don¡¯t have any friends. I only have ine, Den, and Cyrus.¡± It sounded like Jeremiah was a little inferior. He had no friends or social contacts, and he was with Cassandra all the time. That was the happiest time for him. The second happiest thing was to go racing. But since ine took the car and blocked it for Raymond, he didn¡¯t touch the car anymore. He was afraid that there would be idents. ¡°What are you worried about? I¡¯m also an orphan. Without Keh, we would have died a long time ago. I am Yannick. Ethan, Lamont, Oliver, and others are all orphans. When we were about to die, Keh saved us. Aaden was the youngest. When Keh saved him, he was only 10 years old. Now he¡¯s working for Keh. ¡°We are all orphans and lonely people. We have met the right person. Isn¡¯t it fate that we meet?¡± Yannick thought what he said made sense and deserved apuse. Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g 4/5 Chapter 522 Chapter 522 Jeremiah didn¡¯t know what to say for now. Yannick¡¯s words sounded weird. ¡°Yannick, I think you are a hooligan.¡± Jeremiah felt that he was led away by this man. He couldn¡¯t be like that, so he wanted to win back. Yannick giggled and scratched his head awkwardly. ¡°But I think what I said makes sense.¡± Jeremiah was silent and suddenly said seriously, ¡°Yannick, it doesn¡¯t matter whether I like men or women as long as I like them. But I can¡¯t figure out my feelings, and I don¡¯t want to hold you up. I admit that I have different feelings for you, but I don¡¯t know whether it is like or not. If I¡¯m wrong about my feelings, then it will be very embarrassing. So please wait.¡± He was very serious about rtionships and didn¡¯t like to have casual sexual rtions with others. Yannick nodded and said, ¡°I know. That¡¯s why I want to tell you that I will wait for you anytime. As long as you like me, I can do anything.¡± I After understanding his feelings, Yannick waspletely different. Jeremiah didn¡¯t refuse him. He even talked to him frankly, which was a surprise for him. This feeling was different. He loved it. People like him could also have happiness. That was a gift from heaven. ¡°You¡­¡± After hearing this, Jeremiah felt like he was a scumbag. What was Yannick talking about? ¡°I won¡¯t bother you. You have a good rest, and if you need anything, just call me. My phone is open round the clock,¡± After saying that, Yannick left. He didn¡¯te here urgently to ask for an answer but just wanted to know Jeremiah¡¯s attitude. Now that he knew his attitude, there was nothing to worry about. 1/5 Chapter 522 Jeremiah was speechless. It seemed that Yannick was not the one who had juste to ask him if he had thought it over. Jeremiah pulled his hair frantically and became even more annoyed. Jeremiah got up and took the key from the table. He was going to make a fuss of himself. He went racing. Although he hadn¡¯t driven for so long, it wouldn¡¯t be a problem. On the winding mountain road near Drieso, many people were waiting for Jeremiah.. ¡°Oh, what a rare visit. Mr. Lawson finally wants to go beyond hisfort zone and race with us?¡± A man with yellow hair said, making fun of Jeremiah and looking very greasy. ¡°What? It¡¯s been a long time, and you have the final say in this race?¡± Jeremiah didn¡¯t like this man, so he talked back without any respect. ¡°You¡­ If I¡¯m the boss here doesn¡¯t have much to do with Mr. Lawson,¡± The yellow¨Chaired man didn¡¯t answer Jeremiah directly, ¡°Mr. Lawson, what do you want topete with today?¡± ¡°Nothing. I¡¯m just here to drive by myself.¡± He was just out to rx, not look for fun. ¡°Don¡¯t be so bored. How about Ipete with you? 1 million dors in cash?¡± The yellow¨Chaired man challenged Jeremiah confidently. He practiced hard for so long, but Jeremiah had stopped racing for more than a year. How could he beat him? ¡°Do you think I¡¯m short of 1 million dors?¡± [Oh, my goodness, Mr. Lawson is going to be against Mr. Cooper.] [I think it¡¯s exciting!] [I¡¯m on Mr. Lawson¡¯s side. Today, Mr. Lawson doesn¡¯t seem to being for a race. Besides, this track is not exclusive to Mr. Cooper, instead, there is Mr. Lawson¡¯s share. If Mr. Lawson doesn¡¯t want to race, no 2/5 Chapter 522 one can force him.] [I don¡¯t understand why Mr. Cooper forced Mr. Lawson to do racing. Is he trying to prove something?) (Back then, Raymond was racing with Mr. Lawson here. If it weren¡¯t for Mr. Lawson, Raymond would have died long ago. Raymond is also a big shot in racing.] [Over there? Stop saying that. He is nothing, but in terms of strength, Mr. Cooper may not be as powerful as Raymond.] [I just want to know how Mr. Lawson should deal with it. Mr. Lawson is not in a good state.] [I think it¡¯s better not topete if he¡¯s not feeling well.] Du idiots! Don¡¯t you know that racing is about passion? If not excited, who willpete?] [Take chances with life?] [Anything wrong?] ¡°Then I can give Mr. Lawson whatever you want.¡± Tyshawn held a beauty in his arms and looked at Jeremiah provocatively. ¡°If I win, you can¡¯t race for two years. And I want your car,¡± Jeremiah said, ¡°If you win, I¡¯ll give you 10 million dors. What do you think?¡± Tyshawn pondered for a while. This deal was profitable. Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org. 10 million dors was enough for him to refit two more cars. But if he lost¡­ He could try. ¡°Okay, I agree.¡± Jeremiah was surprised. Was he a fool? 3/5 Chapter 522 Jeremiah and Tyshawn got in the cars, and Tyshawn had been ahead of him on the winding path, far ahead of Jeremiah. Just as he came to thest corner smugly, Jeremiah began to speed up on the corner and directly overtook Tyshawn. Maybe Jeremiah was hesitant and out of his mind, so he almost rushed out of the corner. Fortunately, he turned around in time, not only stopping Tyshawn¡¯s way but exceeding him a long way. Jeremiah was still in shock, and there was also a man who went straight up the mountain. Damn it! Was he going to kill himself? How could he do such a dangerous thing? Not only did he elerate at a corner, but also not focused. He wanted to die, didn¡¯t he? Yannick directly drove up to look for him, and Jeremiah just finished the game. He was a little shocked. Just now it was the moment of life and death. ¡°You cheated on me!¡± Tyshawn opened the door and shouted at Jeremiah. ¡°You have no other rules. How can you say I cheated?¡± Jeremiah said indifferently. ¡°You lost, leave your car. You are not allowed to do racing for two years.¡± Jeremiah felt that he needed at rest now, but he didn¡¯t know anyone there. ¡°I don¡¯t ept it.¡± ¡°If you don¡¯t ept it, I will beat you up.¡± Yannick suddenly got out of the car very fast. He tried his best. to teach Jeremiah a lesson. Seeing Yannick, Jeremiah didn¡¯t know what was going on. Why was he here? ¡°You¡­¡± ¡°Shut up!¡± Yannick roared at him and then looked at Tyshawn. ¡°You are not going to honor the bet you two made before thepetition?¡± 4/5 Chapter 522 ¡°So what if I don¡¯t? What can you do to me?¡± Tyshawn looked arrogant. He didn¡¯t take Jeremiah and Yannick seriously. ¡°Since you don¡¯t want to honor it, I can only help you.¡± Yannick kicked him to the ground and broke his tegs. ¡°Now, you can¡¯tpete with him. As for whether you can be cured or not, it depends on whether your are lucky or not,¡± Yannick said coldly and didn¡¯t take Tyshawn seriously at all. He got up and looked at Jeremiah with a cold face, which made Jeremiah tremble. His eyes were even scarier than ine¡¯s. 5/5 Chapter 523 Chapter 523 ¡°Are you crazy? You dare to speed up on a corner, and you are not focused. You might have killed yourself. You know that?¡± Yannick was so angry that he wanted to beat Jeremiah up. Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org. However, he didn¡¯t have the right to control Jeremiah now, but he just couldn¡¯t help it. Jeremiah was so bold. He didn¡¯t know how frightened Yannick was when he saw the live broadcast. This man was still calm and indifferent, which made Yannick even more angry. ¡°I didn¡¯t want topete with him, but he wouldn¡¯t let me go¡­¡± Jeremiah said as if he was Hearing this, Yannick seemed to be even angrier. But this time, instead of being angry with Jeremiah, he turned to look at Tyshawn, who was screaming on the ground. Then he stormed over and stepped on Tyshawn¡¯s feet in an unpleasant mood. Seeing that his injury became more serious, he was satisfied and said, ¡°You son of a bitch! You can threaten Jeremiah? If I see you again, I will kill you!¡± A strange feeling suddenly appeared in Jeremiah¡¯s heart. This was the only person who defended him except ine. Even though Den and Cyrus defended him, they would teach him a lesson, which gave him a headache. However, it seemed that Yannick came up to defend him without hesitation. He was angry because he risked his life, and then he directly beat Tyshawn up. After Yannick vented his anger, he walked to Jeremiah and put him in the passenger seat. Then he drove away. After arriving at the gate of the base, Yannick had a real feeling and held him in his arms. ¡°Can you think about me when you race next time? I¡¯m still waiting for your answer. What if what happened today. happens again?¡± Yannick¡¯s voice was trembling¡­ He was scared, and that was the first time he felt 1/6 Chapter 523 afraid. He had never been afraid of anything before, but¡­. Yannick thought he was crazy. ¡°I¡­ won¡¯t next time,¡± Jeremiah stiffened his body and replied to Yannick. Yannick hugged Jeremiah hard and released his hand. ¡°Are you scared? Sorry. I can¡¯t control myself.¡± ¡°I¡¯m fine.¡± Jeremiah was dizzy. ¡°We have arrived at the base. Go have a rest. I need to see Ethan.¡± Maybe Jeremiah didn¡¯t want to see him now, so it was better to leave. ¡°Let¡¯s go back together. It¡¯s alreadyte at night.¡± Yannick followed Jeremiah back to the dormitory in disbelief, and they were silent. They didn¡¯t know what to say. ¡°You¡­¡± Yannick was stunned and asked, ¡°What do you want to say?¡± ¡°So¡­ Are you serious?¡± ¡°What?¡± Yannick didn¡¯t get it. Jeremiah said, ¡°Never mind.¡± Only then did Yannick realize what Jeremiah meant. ¡°Seriously, of course.¡± Yannick was eager to show his loyalty. If he hesitated at this time, he would lose his love. 2/6 Chapter 523 ¡°Let¡¯s have a try,¡± Jeremiah said in a deep voice. +5 Perhaps it was the night race that changed him. Anyway, it was just dating someone. It didn¡¯t matter whether it was a man or a woman. Most importantly, having feelings for him was more than any reason. ¡°Good! You said yes!¡± Yannick was so excited. He hugged Jeremiah and circled. It was wonderful. He said yes. Great¡­ Not long after they were together, Cassandra caught them on the training ground. Jeremiah was quite embarrassed. ¡°Mrs. Zelinski, I am with Jeremiah. I hope to get your blessing.¡± Cassandra asked, ¡°When did you two get together?¡± ¡°Just¡­ before training. ¡°Why did you hide it from me?¡± ¡°No, no one knows. But Keh should have noticed¡­¡± ¡°How could I hide it from you? I just don¡¯t know how to say it. Besides, I need to be prepared and have no chance to go back.¡± Jeremiah was like a different person in front of Cassandra, and he didn¡¯t have the confidence to speak. Cassandra snorted coldly. ¡°Oh, do you believe what you said?¡± ¨C Jeremiah scratched his head in embarrassment. He didn¡¯t mean it. He just didn¡¯t know how to say it. If ine hadn¡¯t caught him¡­ ¡°I want to have a try with Yannick. I can¡¯t guarantee what will happen in the future. At least for now, I 3/6 Chapter 523 like him,¡± Jeremiah told the truth. Cassandra raised her eyebrows and said, ¡°Talk nicely. I never want to embarrass you.¡± ¡°Yeah,¡± Jeremiah narrowed his eyes and said with a ttering look, ¡°I want to ask you something.¡± ¡°What?¡± ¡°Just¡­ Can you draw someic pictures for me and Yannick?¡± Jeremiah had been thinking about this question for a long time. Although he was good at hacking, he couldn¡¯t do graphic animation or 3D animation. He was just bad at drawing. They gave him a headache, but ine could do everything. Then things became much simpler. ¡°Draw a set ofics?¡± Cassandra didn¡¯t know what he meant, as if she didn¡¯t remember how to draw. u have forgotten that you are still a cartoon master?¡± It was well¨Cknown to everyone in the ACGN field. As long as her cartoons were updated, they would always be topping the list. ¡°Can I draw?¡± ¡°Ha ha, think about it yourself. You have another name, Cassan.¡± Cassandra fell into silence. She seemed to have such a name. Her cartoon had no longer been updated for a long time. Did she want to restart it? ¡°How about I draw a set ofics for you?¡± Cassandra asked, raising her eyebrows. As soon as Yannick and Keh came in, they heard it. Yannick immediately replied excitedly, ¡°Great! Thank you so much!¡± Jeremiah said, ¡°No, I just need two profile pictures.¡± ¡°Mrs. Zelinski, please draw for us. I want to keep it.¡± It must be a blessing to have a set ofics that 4/6 Chapter 523 belonged to him and Jeremiah. Keh asked in surprise, ¡°Do you know how to draw cartoons?¡± ¡°Oh, yes.¡± If Jeremiah hadn¡¯t said it, Cassandra wouldn¡¯t think about it herself. She hadn¡¯t updated heric story for a long time. ¡°Then why didn¡¯t you draw for us?¡± Keh protested with dissatisfaction. ¡°Can I say that I just remembered?¡± ¡°ine, thank you,¡± Knowing that Keh was jealous, Jeremiah didn¡¯t want to stay here and said, ¡°By the way, youric book hasn¡¯t been updated for two years. You shoulde back.¡± Then he took Yannick¡¯s hand and left. Whether she was gonna draw aic story or a profile picture, it was OK. As long as they were fine. 3 Cassandra was trying to find her ount. When she logged in, she was shocked. She couldn¡¯t believe there were so manyments. Even today, there werements to remind her to update the story. Suddenly she felt a little bit unprofessional. Maybe she should do as the readers asked. So, she picked up the brush again and began to draw a continuation of the story two years ago. 5/6 Chapter 524 Chapter 524 200 Cassandra drew a follow¨Cup to the previous story, which took about four hours. And it was finally done. She read it over and over again, made some adjustments, and uploaded it after she found that there was no problem. Keh ¡°tortured¡± her on the bed, and she didn¡¯t sleep well. She then fell asleep after uploading the However, it was okay for her to sleep, but theizens were not calm anymore. Hashtag: ¡°Cassan Updated!¡± Such a topic instantly went viral, andizens felt unbelievable. [What do I see? Cassan updated the story?] [Oh, my goodness. It¡¯s been two years.

I¡¯m so excited!] [I¡­ I forgot my ount. I feel so sad.] [I want to read the update, but I can¡¯t find my ount and password. Look at what Darling Cassan had done to me.] [If it weren¡¯t for theic book of Cassan, I wouldn¡¯t have downloaded it. But who knows that she has changed for two years?

I have the same feeling.] [So, is it because Darling Cassan has experienced something happy that makes her so lively?] fif you say so, I can¡¯t wait to read it. However, the tform can only be logged in with an ount. Can¡¯t they set a mobile phone number for login?] [Haha, I have to urge her once a day for 735 times in total. It took me two years and five days to see her alive!] Jeremiah also saw the Twitter trending topic. This guy was really something that could hold her head high in front of everyone. Cassan was a top painter and writer of X¨CComics. Whether it was the novel section or theic section popr on the tform, she was always the top 1, which made all authors look up to her. ¡°Look, how many people are waiting for an update from ine!¡± Jeremiah couldn¡¯t help showing off to Yannick. ine was the best in the world, even better than Keh. After all, Keh listened to Cassandra. Yannick nced at it and wanted to answer perfunctorily, but he found that Cassandra was ¡°Darling Cassan¡°. What? ¡°Mrs. Zelinski is the cartoonist Cassan?¡± Yannick didn¡¯t believe it. It was impossible! It was impossible! How could a person know and be good at so many things? ¡°Yeah, now you know why I asked ine to draw us cartoon and wanted a cartoon profile picture. Men never grew up. Pictures?¡± Jeremiah felt like a child ¡°But¡­ You didn¡¯t say that Mrs. Zelinski is Cassan.¡± Yannick¡¯s voice suddenly rose. He was not yelling at 2/6 Chapter 524 Jeremiah, but very excited. ¡°Well, you like Cassan?¡± Jeremiah suddenly asked. ¡°Of course, everybody liked her two years ago. We were all attracted by Darling Cassan¡¯s story.¡± Yannick was no exception. Not to mention him, his friends also liked her. Ethan said he wasn¡¯t interested in it, but he was finally impressed by heric. ¡°Then you can worship your idol in the front row. It doesn¡¯t take long for ine to draw that cartoon. every day, but I didn¡¯t expect it to be so popr.¡± Jeremiah didn¡¯t mean to show off, but people who listened to his words didn¡¯t think so. However, Yannick felt that Cassandra was such a capable person. She knew everything. She could solve all the problems. Belongs to N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved. It was just a cartoon. How could that get her? ¡°I¡¯ll call Ethan and tell them!¡± But before he could make the call, Ethan called. His tone was very exciting, probably because Cassan had updated. He was so excited. Judging from the color scheme, her life changed, and her new life must be colorful, so the picture. became brighter. Yannick asked mysteriously, ¡°Do you know who Darling Cassan is?¡± ¡°Who is it?¡± Yannick replied, ¡°It¡¯s Mrs. Zelinski.¡± ¡°What?¡± ¡°It¡¯s Mrs. Zelinski.¡± 3/6 Chapter 524 Ethan hung up the phone, unable to ept the truth. About half a month after Cassandra returned to Drieso, she turned the story of Yannick and Jeremiah into aic story, released her new book, andpleted them all at once. Now it was not Jeremiah but Yannick who was happy. It was so¡­ ¡°Mrs. Zelinski is so awesome. +5 ¡°Am I that handsome? ¡°Am I that bossy? ¡°This kind of story is exactly Jeremiah and I¡¯s story. ¡°Oh, my goodness. I love it so much.¡± Jeremiah was speechless because ine portrayed him as an arrogant girl. Was he that arrogant? He was not that arrogant. Why did she portray him like that? [I like her new book so much. It¡¯s lovely. I can feel it.] [Oh, my goodness! I love reading it! Why is it a short story? Why not update?] [Who is watching such a story? Oh, it¡¯s me!] [This plot is too vulgar. It¡¯s so speechless for two men to fall in love. Please draw all the details of their rtionship. I got money. I can pay for the details!] 4/6 Chapter 524 [Damn it. I almost lost control.] [I can¡¯t hold back anymore. Let¡¯s kill.] [I¡¯m totally immersed. I don¡¯t want to read short stories. I want long ones! Please write a long story!] [Agree!] Cassandra didn¡¯t expect that thisic would be popr. It was almost as popr as her firstic. Now everyone likes it? There were so many private messages andments. Cassandra decided to log out of the ount in case too much information would bother her. But after Yannick and Jeremiah came over, Yannick said that he also wanted to read the follow¨Cup¡­ Cassandra was speechless. What the hell was it that he liked reading his own story? ¡°You want to see how you and Jeremiah develop, that¡¯s your business. How can I know? Don¡¯t go too far!¡± What the hell was that? Seems that you: right. We¡¯re the continuation of love, and we don¡¯t need to readics.¡± Yannick¡¯s greatest advantage was that he could listen to others¡® suggestions, so he didn¡¯t insist anymore. He and Jeremiah would always be together, which was the best future and the best follow¨Cup. Wasn¡¯t it? Their story would never end. 5/6 Chapter 525 Chapter 525 Thirteen yearster, Weston and Abril were already 18 years old, while Nelson was already 20 years old.

Shepletely inherited her father. and wanted to dedicate everything to the country, so she went to the army early and was trained by Yannick personally. Maybe he was more like his mother, who loved freedom and didn¡¯t even like the feeling of being tied down. Therefore, he only took over the National Security Bureau. It would be good if he could serve the country differently. However, Nelson had learned a lot, so he didn¡¯t have to join the army. ¡°Weston, all my family are soldiers, and I like being a soldier very much. I never went to the army. because I didn¡¯t want to miss your 18th birthday celebration. Now that you have grown up, then I should go to the army.¡± Nelson was very rational.

When you celebrate your 20th birthday, I wille back, okay?¡± Seeing that there was hope, Nelson said more decisively.

Don¡¯t disturb me.¡± Although the two families had tacitly agreed, he still didn¡¯t know how to say it after being asked by his sister so suddenly. In particr, Abril was not good at keeping secrets.

I am 20 now, yet, you bad guy!¡± but I haven¡¯t vou He muttered for a long time, and he felt more and more irritable.
