He couldn't help giving her advice, feeling as though he could be a couples counsellor. He sounded

quite good at it.

"Give in? Why do I have to give in? I didn't do anything wrong. I haven't been bossy or controlling. I

would like a normal relationship for once. I don't think I'm being unreasonable."

Cassandra couldn't understand. It was Rufus who hurt her by swaying between her and Amanda. He

would express his love for her but in the next moment, turn to another woman in a hospital. He stayed

with Amanda the entire night, leaving her alone. As the situation didn't change, her heart hardened.

He wanted to possess her and wouldn't let her go. He refused to understand why she made the

heartbreaking decision, saying she was unreasonable. He couldn't see his blame in all of this and

wouldn't begg her to stay and try again.

Seeing the stern look Cassandra gave him, Dylon let out a deep sigh.

'Well, that's normal for people in a relationship. They always blame the other half when there are

conflicts, saying they are innocent. No one likes to be blamed. Anyway, they might just get back

together after a few weeks, ' Dylon thought.

"You brought beer as well?" Cassandra squealed.

She took out several cans of beer from the bag with an excited smile.

"No, you're not drinking It's not for you. I'll drink it myself!"

Dylon hurried to stop Cassandra. He still remembered what happened at the bar last time. Cassandra

overindulged. That scene was still too fresh in his memory to forget. Rufus had to fetch and carry her

out as she was completely intoxicated.

"You are extremely sensitive about a little mishap," Cassandra complained.

She didn't resist as there was a lot of variety in the parcels and took the grilled meat from the other

food box instead.

Dylon smiled in relief and opened a can to drink before she changed her mind.

They had the TV on and enjoyed their dinner. For a moment, the chatter and laughter managed to help

Cassandra forget her pain. However, the night wasn't destined to be a peaceful one. The door bell rang

again.

"It may be the property management coming for my signature. I wasn't here during the day," Cassandra

surmised.

After stuffing another piece of squid into her mouth, she got up to open the door.

Dylon had already strolled towards the door, opening it on her behalf.

He was stunned and his mouth hung open as he stared into the face standing at the door.

A man outside was holding a bunch of beautiful fragrant roses.

The moment he saw Dylon, the warm grin that he was wearing vanished. A tornado started to stir in his

eyes, and his face suddenly turned dark.

Cassandra wondered why Dylon was standing still at the door for so long.

"What happened?" she asked curiously. "Just go ahead and sign for me!"

she muttered as she was chewing the squid.

Dylon slowly turned around smiling embarrassedly.

"Hmm… Cassandra I'm off. I remember there's still something I have to do. Take your time," Dylon said

apologetically.

Then it took him no time to flee hurriedly from the awkward situation.

Rufus stepped forward into the doorway and surfaced himself from the shade of the door.

Cassandra walked towards the door, coming face to face with Rufus. She felt like her heart was

jumping into her throat.

This was not the first time that she received roses. Rufus always brought her the fresh ones.

He stood right there, with the roses in hand. Was he trying to ask her to come back to him?

"You… W-Why are you here?"

Cassandra stuttered as she was trying to get her words out. It was so unexpected.

She looked like a mess, being totally unprepared for the visit. Her hair rested on her shoulders in a wild

fashion; her tracksuit wrinkled with sleeves rolled up; her mouth was still full of squid with sauce arond

her lips; she looked the furthest thing from glamorous. She was battling to accept the flowers from

Rufus, who looked handsome in his formal business attire.

For a moment, she was at a loss and didn't know how to behave. It seemed that whatever she did

would still be inappropriate at this moment. Her face now was a red blaze as she tried to search her

expression for emotions. The anxious reaction of Cassandra only made this man confirm his

suspicions.

"I apologize that I didn't inform you earlier about my visit. I didn't intend to interrupt your evening with

your boyfriend," Rufus said in a deep unemotional tone.

His cold eyes swept across the food boxes and beer cans on the tea table, and he seethed with anger.

Rufus thought that Cassandra would be alone and heartbroken for a while after moving out. If it hadn't

been for an urgency at the TY Group HQ he wouldn't have let her go so easily.

When he managed to find her address, he was feeling uneasy, as he knew that Dylon had an

apartment here as well. Nevertheless, he convinced himself that it was a coincidence.

However, there was no way he could convince himself the moment the door opened. He had brought

her so many roses, only to find the little couple having barbecue and watching TV together. How could

he be so stupid, thinking she longed for him as he did for her? He wanted to have her back and love

and spoil her. Now he was betrayed and his heart felt ripped out.

Cassandra sensed the discontent in his voice, and the excitement of seeing him instantly disappeared.

Waiting for the bomb to explode, she looked at Rufus fearfully.

'Dylon is obviously not my boyfriend. Doesn't' he know that? The three of us spent quite some time in A

City together with the relief work. If there was something between Dylon and I he would have picked it

up then, ' Cassandra thought.

"Rufus, you are the most small-minded man that I have ever seen!"

Cassandra blurted out with her face red, but now it was because of anger.

"Small-minded?"

Rufus repeated as he walked slowly towards Cassandra. Looking down at her, he had his cold eyes

fixed on her.

"Cassandra, it seems that I have doted on you too much."
