Chapter 534 His Face Was Slashed

After Cassie got ready, she headed downstairs. However, she did not stop to eat her breakfast. Instead, she simply said, “Mom, I’m heading out”

Elizabeth stated, “But you haven’t eaten breakfast yet!”

“It’s almost eleven o’clock, so it’s way past breakfast time now. I’ll have lunch outside in a bit. Also, tell Dad that I’m planning to help out at his company. I want to start from scratch.”

A hint of surprise flashed across Elizabeth’s eyes when she heard that.

She asked, “Cassie, are you sure?”

“Of course I am, Mom. Can’t talk right now. I’m in a hurry. We can talk when I come back,” Cassie explained, leaving in a hurry.

“This child, I swear.” Elizabeth shook her head helplessly. She turned around and saw June on the couch, realizing that he was still there. “June, Cassie hasn’t really calmed down yet. Don’t mind her attitude.”

June replied, “Don’t worry, Mrs. Yard. I like her the way she is. Honestly, I’m a bit of a masochist. Don’t laugh at me, please. Though she’s being hot and cold to me, I’m fascinated by her uniqueness. I think she’s very different from other girls. Maybe this is why I loved her all these years. I loved her and no one else. Don’t you think that her petty attitude is cute?”

Elizabeth was thrilled to hear those words coming from him.

 

She was growing more and more fond of June, her future son-in-law. She pondered it before asking, “June, you and Cassie have known each other for so many years. Have you thought about getting married? I know you realize by now that Cassie may not be able to get pregnant. But with such advanced technologies nowadays, there’s probably something that can heal her. Look-”

June’s face fell in despair. He said in a low voice, “Mrs. Yard, I already raised the prospects of marriage two times to Cassie. Unfortunately, she keeps rejecting me. I don’t think she’s ready for marriage yet.”

Hearing this, Elizabeth’s face contorted in anger.

“That girl, I swear. She causes nothing but trouble. I can’t believe she’d rather die than be with a good man while also refusing to let go of a man who’s rude to her. At this point, I think she’s just doing this to get on my nerves.”

Elizabeth paused before continuing, “Don’t worry, June. I’ll help you persuade her. The sooner you guys get married, the sooner I can calm down. Otherwise, I won’t sleep well at night.”

“I’d appreciate that, Mrs. Yard.”

June sat for a while and smiled politely. “Mrs. Yard, I’ll go look for Cassie. She went out alone, so I’m a little worried for her.”

“Go. I think you should have dinner outside and watch a movie before coming back. Since you’re neither married nor have kids yet, you should have some fun,” Elizabeth suggested.

“Understood, Mrs. Yard. I’ll be leaving now.”

As soon as June left, he called Cassie on the phone. However, Cassie did not answer his phone call. He could only send her a text message. The text message read: Call me back. Otherwise, I’ll upload one of the videos I helped you record.

Soon enough, Cassie dialed his phone number.

June answered the call and asked, “Where are you?”

“June, what is the meaning of this? Who do you think you are, and why do you care? I’m warning you-”

“Where are you? Don’t make me ask again,” June firmly interrupted her.
