“Oscar, these were all my orchestra mates. After our final performance, we had a celebratory dinner where everyone had too much to drink. We were playing a game where the loser had to be kissed, no matter men or women. I did share a little kiss with a female colleague as well, but I don’t know why they only took pictures of me with my male colleagues. You can go and investigate yourself if you don’t trust me. Oscar, you are the only one that I love in my life. That is the truth. Now that I am pregnant with your child, I don’t want you to misunderstand me just because of a few photos.”

Oscar picked up a photo of Cassie passionately kissing someone at a bar. His voice betrayed not a trace of his emotions as he said, “Cassie, I’d always thought that you were pure and innocent. When I had sex with you a month ago, there was real blood on the bedsheet. But could you explain to me what was going on in this picture?” “Oz, I can explain. It was my roommate Julie’s birthday, and we decided to party at the bar. Before we knew it, we were carried away by the bar’s atmosphere and had too much to drink. I don’t know how I ended up kissing that person in the picture,

but I can guarantee that nothing happened after that. Oz, when I left you to go to Erihal, I was very down, and I thought that I’d never meet another man that could make me fall in love so deeply. All I wanted to do was to let loose so I went to all the bars and clubs. I wanted to find a man for a quick one-night stand but you remained in my mind. All I shared with those men was a kiss, and nothing else. You have to believe me, Oz. You are the only one in my heart. I’ve really never slept with anyone else.” Tears rolled down her cheeks as she spoke. Even Amelia could not help but praise her acting skills. With her looks, figure, and acting skills, it is a waste for her to not join the entertainment industry.

Oscar frowned and before he could speak, Olivia said, “Ms. Yard, you have excellent acting chops there. Regular men would definitely fall for it. However, our family is a proper business family, and we cannot allow such a wild woman into our family.” Elizabeth scowled with displeasure. “Olivia, I don’t like what you are implying there. Our financial capacity is not that far behind yours, and our Cassie is a pure and innocent girl. So what if you have those pictures? They’re all from the past and they took place when she was single.” Olivia laughed. “Liz, we have been good friends for years. To be honest, I am not as big-hearted as you are. For you to say that shows that you are very patient and magnanimous.

girl that is so wild and frivolous. Who knows if she would cheat on my son in the future? Nobody can be certain about that.” The Yards’ expression darkened. “Olivia, that is too much. We’ve been friends for years and you’ve watched Cassie grow up. Shouldn’t you know what kind of person she is by now?” Charlie finally spoke up. Charlie and Olivia were university friends and they shared quite a solid friendship. Olivia met Owen through Charlie, so she

I don’t want Cassie to be the hated mistress either. However, Cassie and Oscar love each other, and I cannot bring it upon myself to separate them. You are Oscar’s mother, so how could you just stand by and watch him miss out on his happiness?” Olivia smirked. “I thought you were the most logical person out of all the people here, Charlie. I did not expect

that is why we came here despite the shame. If not for Oscar looking for Cassie despite being married, our daughter would have never been someone else’s mistress. Are you trying to break off our friendship here?” Elizabeth questioned Olivia grimly. Olivia was

my daughter-in-law, Amelia, and I will never allow them to be divorced. It was probably a night of confusion for Oscar and Cassie. How about this? Let’s assume that Cassie is really pregnant. We will conduct a DNA test when the baby is born. If the baby really is Oscar’s, we will bring up the child. On top of that, we will provide Cassie with allowance.” Elizabeth was so angry her face turned slightly green. “Olivia,

in question here. What do you think? Just tell me whether you are marrying Cassie. We are still a reputable family and we won’t hound you, but I’ll tell you now that I will not just leave it as it is.”

later tonight.” Cassie bit her lips and nodded before saying amenably to her parents, “Mom, Dad, let’s go back. Ms. Winters was just discharged from the hospital today and we shouldn’t have been here in the first place. I don’t want your friendship with Mr. and Mrs. Clinton to be severed just because of me. You can’t burn all bridges because of my wilfulness.” Elizabeth was about to protest but her husband tugged her dress. She had no choice but to get up and take her leave. Before she left, she said, “Olivia, Cassie is our only child. If Oscar marries her, everything that we have will become yours. Don’t cut off this financial route just because of

the Yards because of a useless daughter-in-law like me.” “Silly girl, Oscar wronged you in the first
