Chapter 33

Cassandra was stunned. She lowered her head and stared at the ground, subconsciously thinking about the fact that Rebecca was still living in Dustmeadow Mansion.

However, she did not tell Peter. She just shook her head and smiled faintly. “No.”

She did not want Peter to worry about her. Although Peter was hospitalized this time to manipulate Orlando, she would not make any bets with his body.

“If he dares to bully you, just tell me, and I’ll deal with him.” Peter looked at Cassandra firmly, his eyes filled with

the love of an elder.

Cassandra smiled and said, “Okay. I know you treat me the best.”

She raised her hands and massaged Peter’s leg. Without the slightest precaution, she covered her mouth and ran to the bathroom to vomit crazily. It was probably because she had not eaten breakfast, and the smell of disinfectant in the ward was strong.

There was nothing to vomit without eating. However, Cassandra felt a lot more comfortable after that.

She washed her face and walked out.

Peter stared at her and asked in a low voice, “Cassie, what’s wrong with you?”

She shook her head calmly and said, “I’m fine, Grandpa Peter. I may have caught a cold. Don’t worry.”

Peter did not say anything, but he looked at Cassie with cloudy yet energetic eyes. He asked, “Cassie, are you hiding something from me?”

Cassandra was stunned.

She had never been a good liar, especially in front of Peter who loved her unconditionally.

She pursed her lips and smiled faintly. She replied, “Grandpa Peter, what are you talking about? How could I possibly keep something from you?”

“Cassie, although we don’t spend much time together, I know you’re a good girl. You can tell me whatever you

“Grandpa Peter, I’m fine. Please don’t overthink,” said Cassandra.

fast

Cassandra’s insistence kept Peter silent. He just looked at her and said after a long time, “You said you’re not feeling well. Let’s get the doctor to take a look at you, since you’re at the hospital already. Otherwise, I’ll be worried about you.”

After saying that, Peter was about to make a phone call. Cassandra hurriedly stopped him with embarrassment and hesitation on her face. “Grandpa Peter, I’m fine. I don’t need to see a doctor. Please stop asking me, okay?”
