“You will only embarrass yourself in the end, Cassandra thought bitterly.
Orlando also sensed an undercurrent in her words. It seemed like she was talking about him, or maybe not. He wondered if he had overthought the situation.
Cassandra didn’t want to continue the conversation with Orlando. She feared losing control of her emotions. Since yesterday, she had reminded herself repeatedly, thinking, ‘Cassandra, stop your wishful thinking already. It’s time to end the relationship. There’s no hope. He will not fall in love with you.

Cassandra released Orlando’s arm and hurriedly went to Peter. She gently massaged his shoulders and sweetly cassured him, “Grandpa Peter, I’m fine. Don’t worry about me. I’ve gained some weight, and now I need to lose

In fact, Orlando didn’t understand why Peter, who had dominated the business world for decades, was so imposing on everyone, Including his own grandson, except Cassandra.
He wondered what charm Cassandra had.
He said softly. “Grandpa, maybe next time, you should only ask Cassandra to come back and keep you company It seems there’s no need for me to return and be ignored by you.”
Peter stopped smiling and glared at Orlando unhappily. He snorted lightly, “What’s wrong? Can’t I command you now?”
How can it be?” Orlando said.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense,
The other three looked at Cassandra and Orlando.
Cassandra pursed her lips and said nothing.
Orlando’s expression remained unchanged. He looked into Peter’s eyes and said in a low voice, “Grandpa, this is between Cassandra and me. Please stay out of it.”
