Chapter 52

“Of course, I don’t mind. After all, you’re right. Cassandra is the lady of the house.” Rebecca looked indifferent, and her enthusiasm for welcoming Lloyd also disappeared.

Lloyd’s expression remained unchanged. He said, “That’s good.”

“Have a seat first. I’ll ask the chef to make some oatmeal for Landy,” said Rebecca.

Lloyd replied, “Okay, go ahead. Don’t worry about me.”

Rebecca glanced at him and turned to the kitchen.

Lloyd and Orlando had known each other since childhood. They were well–known close buddies in upper–class society.

But his words made her extremely unhappy.

She could not help but think in resentment. ‘He’s really meddling in other people’s affairs.

Cassandra, who was meeting with Kendall at her company, received a call from Graham.

When Cassandra learned Lloyd was waiting in Dustmeadow Mansion for her return, she subconsciously paused and said faintly, “Graham, please tell him I have something to deal with in the company. I may not be able to go back so soon.”

All she could think of about the reason Lloyd came to look for her was Orlando’s hospitalization.

Thinking of Quinn Group would inevitably bring Orlando to Cassandra’s mind. Her face was slightly pale, and she was a little distracted.

Michael whispered, “Cassie, are you feeling unwell?”

Cassandra came to her senses and shook her head. “No, I’m just thinking about something.”

“What’s wrong?” Michael asked concernedly.

Cassandra hesitated and said, “Orlando had a car accident because of Rebecca and was hospitalized. I don’t want to go to the hospital to visit him. Michael, do you think I did something wrong?”
