Chapter 55

Cassandra thought, Orlando really wanted to die. He knew that the wound would open, but he still did it. Is he crazy?

Since Cassandra found out about Orlando’s car accident early yesterday morning, she had been feeling tense, and her emotions were the same. She wanted to handle it on her own, but he deliberately went against her wishes, relentlessly pressuring her natil she completely fell apart.

At this moment, she was in a bad mood and on the verge of tears.

Orlando also noticed it and wanted to say something, but Cassandra had already turned around and walked toward the door.

“T’ll call the nurse.” After saying this, Cassandra opened the door and went out.

Soon, the nurse came in to check Orlando’s wound and bandaged it again. Then, she specifically gave a reminder. “Mr. Quinn’s wound must not split open again. Otherwise, it could harm the bone and require another surgery.

“Okay, I understand,” Cassandra answered indifferently, standing some distance away from the bed.

She sent the nurse away, and then she didn’t continue to wipe his body. She just took the water to the restroom, poured it out, and washed the towel again.

Then, there was silence in the bedroom.

It was so quiet that the sound of a pin drop could be heard.

Orlando fixed his gaze on her, watching her walk to the couch, and sat down without paying any attention to him.

“No. You can drink it when the nurse applies the ointment for you, lest your wound open again,‘ she said indifferently. without any intention of negotiating.

Orlando looked at her with a sullen face.

Orlando thought, I remembered Cassandra hardly ever got mad. Even if she did, a few words could easily comfort her. I could totally comfort her if I just eased up a bit. That’s why she hardly ever loses her cool. Even those recent spats weren’t really full–blown tantrums, so is this one of those agents?

Orlando didn’t speak. After a long time, it became dark outside. Rebecca and Lloyd hadn’t come back yet, and so did Taylor.
