Chapter 27

Only then did Orlando respond and reply in a hoarse voice, “Yes.”

He sat up straight and looked at Cassandra as he asked softly, “Sorry, I suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in my heart and didn’t stop the car in time. Did I scare you?”

With a complicated expression, Cassandra looked at him and wondered, ‘Did he really hit the car because he couldn’t stop the car in time? Not because of something else?‘

Soon, Cassandra stopped probing further. He didn’t love her, so it couldn’t be that he was jealous.

She responded calmly, “I’m fine. What’s wrong with your heart?”

“Nothing. Probably because I’ve been working intensely without taking a break. I’ll be fine after a while,” assured Orlando.

He looked slightly pale.

Cassandra said, “Then go in and have a rest.”

“Can you help me up?” he requested in a low voice, looking at her with expectation.

His gaze was so gentle that she could not say a word.

Cassandra was stunned. Before she could say anything, Michael came over. “Mr. Quinn, do you need help? Cassie isn’t as strong as me. Let me help you.”

Their unfathomable, deep eyes met. Neither of the two men intended to give in.

If one’could kill with their gaze, a war would’ve already begun at the moment.

Orlando didn’t move as he withdrew his gaze and said indifferently, “Mr. Collins, thank you very much. But I’m not used to having any contact with strangers, so let my wife do

it.”

Staring at Cassandra with his blue eyes, Orlando said, “Cassie, help me up. Don’t trouble Mr. Collins. What do you think?”

Cassandra stared at Orlando before her. For a moment, she felt Orlando was somewhat different. She had never seen him like this before.

He was quite pretentious.

Seeing that she didn’t say anything, Orlando added, “Cassie, it must be tiring for Mr. Collins to drive you back. It won’t be nice if you keep troubling him, right? Besides, we’re a couple. I should thank Mr. Collins for taking care of you. How could I trouble him?”
