“You called me?”

Cassie nodded as she made herself look even more innocent and pitiful. “I called you, but Ms. Winters said that you were in the shower. She was the one to say that too. Oz, I don’t mean to ruin your marriage. I just love you too much. If you think that I’m a homewrecker, I’ll go back to Erihal.”

Oscar narrowed his eyes, but his gaze remained fixed on the road. “I’ll deal with Amelia, so don’t overthink it.”

Cassie mumbled, “Oz, are you mad at me?”

He shook his head and reassured, “Why would I? But you’ll have to minimize your visits to bars. It’s fine if you want to go there, but you’ll have to call me along. You’re too pretty, and I’m afraid others might do something to you.”

Cassie nodded. “Oz, I’m sorry. I won’t do it again.”

“You must have gotten a fright from that. I’ll send you home first.”

“Oz, send me to the hotel from earlier.”

“You’re not going back to Yard Manor?”

“It’s too late. I’ll only wake my parents and worry them if I go back now,” Cassie replied.

Oscar nodded in understanding and drove to the hotel instead.

After taking the elevator to the twentieth floor and sending her to the room, Oscar said, “Cassie, rest well. I’ll take a trip back first.”

Promptly, Cassie hugged him from behind and sobbed, “Oz, don’t leave me. I was nearly molested by a bunch of gangsters earlier. I’m scared. Can you stay with me?”

As she expected, Oscar relented.

He led Cassie to the couch before boiling some water. Then, he poured her a glass of hot water and placed it on the table. “Drink when it’s cooler.”

Cassie wrapped her arms around his waist and mumbled, “Oz, I was so scared just now. I was so afraid that they’ll violate me, and I won’t be able to be with you anymore. I’m so glad you came in time.”

He patted her back and consoled, “Silly, even if anything does happen, I’ll still love you like before. To me, it’s nothing. Don’t get stressed over it.”

Cassie paled, but still, she shamelessly continued, “Oz, you always said that I’m innocent, so I wanted to save myself for you. I only have one man, and that’s you. Regardless of whether we marry or not, I just want to save myself for you.”

Oscar was a man, and a man loves it when a woman saves herself for him.
