Prev Chapter Next Chapter

"Cassandra, are you still keeping in touch with Rufus?"

Stella suddenly asked. The tone of Cassandra's voice baffled her, so she got a little bit worried.

That question seemed to have pulled Cassandra back into reality. Looking at her dearest friends, she

thought that there was nothing to hide from them.

"Yes, I actually am. Rufus told me that, for a while now, Amanda has been so depressed and

emotionally unstable. And because of her condition, he had been backed into a corner and had no

choice but to get engaged to her to keep her in check..."

Before Cassandra could finish what she was trying to say, Stella abruptly slammed her hand onto the

table and stood up.

"Cassandra, you've always been such a smart woman. How could you easily fall for his sweet lies so

easily? The persons involved would find it hard to see the bigger picture, but from someone who

doesn't really have anything to do with it, it seems to me that Rufus just wants to fool around with both

you and Amanda at the same time. And you're actually dumb enough to believe him. This is getting on

my nerves!"

Stella yelled out of anger, with her face burning with intense rage. Since she had been frank with

Cassandra, it was plain as day that she didn't like Rufus. And now, the thought of Rufus playing with

Cassandra's emotions was driving her insane.

"Cassandra, you would always think rationally when you're working, but how could you be so ignorant

when it comes to your relationships?"

With her brows deeply furrowed, Lyndsy had the same opinion as Stella. She believed that Rufus was

a man who should not be trusted.

It came as no surprise to Cassandra that Stella and Lyndsy would get bent out of shape. Stretching out

her arms, she grabbed Stella's and Lyndsy's hands.

"As my precious friends, I understand how you feel about this matter. But I have faith in Rufus. This

would be the last time, so I'm willing to take the risk. In any case, there's no turning back for me now,"

Cassandra wanted to reassure her friends that she'd be fine. Stella and Lyndsy glanced at one another,

both clearly at such a loss for words.

"Okay, fine. If that's what you truly want. But please brace yourself for what could end up happening.

Just know that no matter what, I'm always here for you."

Feeling so helpless, Stella just waved her hand. They knew full well that Cassandra could be so

hardheaded sometimes, and whenever she was already dead set on doing something, no one would

be able to make her change her mind except for herself.

"Cassandra, something suddenly crossed my mind, but I don't think..."

Lyndsy was somewhat wavering. Glancing at Cassandra and Stella, she had a look of hesitation

written all over her face.

"What is it? Don't worry. You can tell me anything."

Cassandra had her eyes fixated on Lyndsy, seeming to be a bit confused. As far as she knew, Lyndsy

always spoke her mind. So, for what reason could she possibly be faltering now?

"Well, as you might know, I'm starring in the film funded by TY Entertainment right now. I assume you're

aware that TY Entertainment is actually a subsidiary of the TY Group, right?"

Lyndsy looked Cassandra straight in the eye, with the latter simply bobbing her head in agreement, but

still appearing to be quite puzzled.

"One of the investors mentioned that he had met face-to-face with the chairman of the TY Group, who

was rumored to be one very young and capable businessman."

Biting her lips a bit hard, Lyndsy was visibly still doubtful. The expression she had on her face gave

Cassandra a sneaking suspicion, making her feel uneasy.

"He also said that the chairman of TY Group has been living under the radar and rarely shows up in

public. Apparently, he was the first major client of TY Securities, so the chairman welcomed him

personally. If I remember correctly, I think he said he got acquainted with the chairman in G City..."

Lyndsy gave Cassandra a worried glance. Cassandra, on the other hand, appeared to be still rather

calm.

"During the chairman's engagement party, he saw him once more. His bride-to-be is the renowned and

exceptional pianist, Amanda, or so the story goes..."

As soon as Lyndsy was done talking, Cassandra accidentally tipped over her cup out of surprise. The

water got spilled all over the table and dripped onto her lap.

Caught completely off guard, Cassandra stood up immediately, obviously left dumbfounded, as she

didn't even bother wiping the water stains off her dress.

It was a good thing Lyndsy had the right mind to grab the napkins to wipe her dress while apologizing

to her, "Cassandra, I wasn't sure at first whether I should be telling you about that or not, but since I

consider you to be one of my closest friends, I know what kind of person you are. You're a decent

human being. And I wouldn't want you to be taken advantage of. Rufus has just revealed to the public

that he was actually Horace's son. Only a handful of people are privy to the fact that he's the chairman

of the TY Group. I'm not sure what his reason for hiding that information. I thought… Either way, it's

something that he shouldn't have kept from you."

Watching Cassandra get all shaken up, Lyndsy could easily tell, without a doubt, that she absolutely

hadn't had the slightest idea about Rufus's real identity. This surely would come as a shock to her.

However, Cassandra was much too overwhelmed that she failed to hear Lyndsy's explanation. Rufus's

true identity astounded her so much and caused her heart to shatter into a million pieces.

The things she always had a hard time trying to figure out was now out in the open.

No wonder Rufus always seemed so terrifyingly formidable. If he was the actual founder of TY Group,

he would undoubtedly function as the CEO of Tang Group efficiently.
