Ex-Husband’s Love Dilemma

Chapter 42

Orlando frowned slightly and looked at Cassandra subconsciously. He responded to Rebecca in a low voice. “Did Cassandra tell you that we are going through the formalities tomorrow?”

“Yes, Cassandra told me when she came back in the morning. Is that correct, Cassandra? Rebecca gazed at Cassandra with a soft expression without the sharpness from their earlier confrontation.

However, Cassandra ignored Rebecca. She simply gave the latter an indifferent glance and looked away.

Cassandra was silent, and Rebecca’s expression was slightly stiff.

Rebecca whispered, “Landy, since you and Cassandra are going through with the formalities, we should move out. After all, you mentioned that this mansion should be left to Cassandra as part of the divorce settlement. If we keep living here after your divorce, others might say we bully Cassandra.”

Orlando’s face turned slightly stern, and he seemed a bit impatient. His tone grew cold. “Is that what you mean too?”

This question was directed at Cassandra, of course.

Orlando and Cassandra locked eyes. His intense gaze was icy, almost stinging like frostbite.

Cassandra didn’t shy away from his gaze but looked right at him and stated, “I don’t plan to stay here after the divorce. I’ll find another place, so you can continue living here if you haven’t found a suitable place yet.”

Orlando owned a lot of property, so Cassandra believed his claim that Rebecca’s lack of proper accommodation was just art

excuse

Cassandra believed he made this excuse because he wanted to be with his beloved all the time.

However, all this soon had nothing to do with her, so she wouldn’t ask any more questions.

But, Orlando’s expression was grim throughout the night. Cassandra didn’t know if it was because of her response.

‘He looks mad. But what is he mad about? Cassandra thought. She couldn’t figure it out

After dinner, Orlando returned to his study, and Cassandra went into the bedroom.

He didn’t return to the bedroom even until late at night, so Cassandra never had a chance to talk to him again.

She fell asleep waiting.

After a dreamless night, it was soon the next day.

Around six o’clock in the morning. Orlando came out of the master bedroom and went downstairs directly.

He didn’t even have breakfast and was about to go out. But, just as he was about to get in the car, he heard a woman’s voice. “Landy, are you going out?”
