Ex-Husband’s Love Dilemma

Chapter 36

Orlando didn’t even glance at Rebecca as he said indifferently. “No.”

“But you’re clearly not happy,” Rebecca murmured.

Orlando stared her with his deep, profound eyes. A trace of distant coldness flashed in his gaze, making it intimidating for anyone to approach.

Fear crept into Rebecca, and even her gaze retreated as she looked at him.

But eventually, he just informed her blandly, I’m leaving for a business trip to Jeahron this afternoon and won’t be back until two days later. If you have any issues, Emma is available to assist you in solving your problems. In addition, could you try to keep your distance from Cassandra when I’m not around these two days?”

Emma Zeller was Orlando’s assistant.

Stunned for a moment. Rebecca hurriedly nodded in response and said, “Okay.”

However, she always felt that there were other profound implications in Orlando’s last sentence. She wondered, ‘Could it be that Cassandra told him something last night?‘

Rebecca was just making silent speculations, not having the audacity to ask Orlando personally.

Orlando didn’t tell Cassandra that he would be away for a business trip. She only learned it from Rebecca after returning to Dustmeadow Mansion at night.

Cassandra’s reaction also revealed that she wasn’t informed earlier. Hence, Rebecca totally dismissed Orlando’s words and said, “Cassandra, Landy has acknowledged me as his wife. He’ll speak with me directly about his schedule rather than through you. If I were you, I would divorce immediately.

Meanwhile, Cassandra just glanced at Rebecca coldly, not intending to respond to what was said.

However, Rebecca seized the opportunity to ask, “So when are you and Landy going to divorce, Cassandra? Isn’t Grandpa awake? Are you going to pester Orlando and not let him go?”

Cassandra responded, “You can ask Orlando directly if you want to know it so badly. As for when we’ll divorce, this is between Orlando and me. Why are you so concerned, Ms. Spencer?”

Since Orlando told Cassandra not to involve Rebecca in their affairs, she held no emotions at all.

Feeling triggered by Cassandra’s words, Rebecca stared at her and then rebuked, “Landy doesn’t love you at all. He was forced to marry you. Do you still think you two would become married if it weren’t for Grandpa, who used me to threaten him? Cassandra, what you own today is supposed to be mine, and you’re just unjustly occupying my place.”

“So what? We’re a married couple now. If you really want me to divorce him, you’d better behave yourself. Otherwise, if I refuse the divorce, Grandpa Peter will surely stand by my side. Even if Orlando wants a divorce, he’ll still consider his grandpa, Cassandra replied.

“Cassandra, you’re shameless,” Rebecca snapped.
