Eric looked at Cassandra expectantly. He waited for her answer.Cassandra looked down, her hands squeezed together."Casey.""Eric, I'm sorry. I can't say it now. Give me time," Cassandra asked softly."Okay," Eric didn't have the heart to press Cassandra to tell her who Alexander Wolf was and their relationship."Thank you for understanding, Eric.""Hey," Eric pulled Cassandra into his arms. He had to be patient in gathering information about Cassandra-related things. Their relationship has only been around for a long time. Eric was afraid that his attitude would make Cassandra uncomfortable and then end their relationship that had just started."Do you want to order food or eat at the restaurant?" Eric asks softly."Just order something to eat," Alexander Wolf's image was still a nightmare for Cassandra."Okay, I agree."***Day by day, Cassandra's relationship with Eric grew closer. The two of them look very intimate when they are in a closed room. Only John was a witness to the wa
Cassandra had been standing waiting for Eric for half an hour. Even though Eric told her, he was already in the basement waiting for her. The girl tried to send a message to Eric's cell phone, but it wasn't read. The man's cell phone also couldn't be reached.Finally, Cassandra contacted John, Eric's assistant. "Hello, Mr. Douglas. Is Eric with you?""Um... we had an appointment, but I've been waiting for half an hour; Eric wasn't seen where we met either."Cassandra sighed in disappointment. "Okay, I understand. If you see him or know his whereabouts, please contact me. Thank you."Cassandra looked for Eric, but the expensive Rolls-Royce car was nowhere to be seen."Could he have been kidnapped?" Cassandra muttered because during the few months she had been with Eric, the man had been the target of kidnapping several times.I'd better ask the security guard to make sure." Cassandra rushed to the security post in front of the basement door."Excuse me, sir. Did you see Mr. Williams' c
This morning, something was different at the William Corp office. Eric entered his office listlessly while the secretary's chair was still empty. He hasn't told John to find a replacement for Cassandra. Meanwhile, Cassandra's dismissal letter must still be sent to Cassandra's email. Yesterday, Eric was so angry and emotional that he immediately fired her verbally without a warning letter.Two minutes later, John arrived at the office. He was pretty surprised because Cassandra was not yet in her work chair. Usually, the girl was already there when John came in to work. Suddenly, there was a telephone call from Eric's office."Hello Boss, okay, ready." Apparently, Eric called John to come into his room.John frowned. He was surprised because Eric had gone to the office early this morning. Usually, John and Cassandra were the ones who preceded Eric. But today was different; Eric was already in the office before he arrived, and Cassandra hadn't appeared yet."Call Miss Adams and call her
"Who are you?" The man about to slap Cassandra was shocked when someone caught his hand."Eric," Cassandra muttered softly. In fact, Cassandra could ward off the man's hand without Eric's help. But she wanted to avoid creating new problems by fighting with foreigners. Previously, she had been told to compensate for his wrinkled jacket, even though she had to save money."Don't be rude to women. I'll pay for whatever you lose." Eric took out several dollar bills and put them in the man's hand."You stingy man who likes asking women for compensation. Shameless." Eric hissed. He then pulled Cassandra's hand away from the man who liked to make trouble.Cassandra looked at the hand that Eric was holding. There was a feeling of happiness when the man he loved returned and saved her. Even though they just broke up last night. But the longing in Cassandra's heart was already mounting."I'm surprised by you. Why have you suddenly become so weak? Even though you're usually very responsive in de
"Eric," Rossy called Eric, who suddenly collapsed on the bed. She immediately called her servants. Rossy also called an ambulance because she was worried about Eric's condition."Quickly take my grandson to the hospital," Rossy opened the door to Eric's room to give way to the medical staff.***Three hours later."Thank God you finally woke up," said Rossy with a tired face."Grandma, where am I?""You insolent grandson, what did you do to your body that made you sick and faint? It's make me worry," scolded Rossi while tapping her stick on the floor."I'm sorry, Grandma. I'm already mature, and it's still a bother, Grandma.""I knew you were troublesome but didn't want to listen to my advice. Now look at what you look like?" Rossy grumbled."Where are you going?" asked Rossy, who saw Eric wanting to get off the gurney."I just want to go to the toilet.""I wonder, where are you going?""Peter!" Call Rossy to her assistant. "Help my grandson to the bathroom.""Yes, Madam." Peter took
Cassandra suddenly stood up when she saw Eric's arrival."I-I was asked by Grandma to take her place looking after you. She was tired, I just… felt pity for Grandma."'Oh, so she came here because Grandma asked her to. I think it's because she feels guilty. It turns out my hopes were too high.' Eric complained to himself."I-if you object to my presence. I beg to excuse myself." Cassandra took her backpack, wanting to leave Eric's room."You want to run away from your responsibilities?" Eric deliberately stopped Cassandra from leaving."Huh, what?" Cassandra failed to move."Didn't Grandma ask you to take over her duties?" said Eric, pretending to be curt."B-but….""You want my grandmother to worry because no one is waiting for me here, and then she will come here to take care of me. You know that my grandmother is old and has a lot of illnesses, right?"'Then how about this? If I don't look after Eric, Grandma Rossi will come here, which will endanger her health. But if I was here a
"I miss you." Eric cupped Cassandra's face."Eric, let me go." Cassandra feels betrayed by Eric. She felt annoyed until suddenly tears started to come out."Hey, I'm sorry." Eric felt guilty after seeing Cassandra's eyelids starting to get wet."You liar," Cassandra hit Eric's chest repeatedly. She wanted to vent her frustration."Shh, don't cry. I'm sorry, I was too stupid to trust Alexander Wolf completely and didn't want to hear your explanation."Cassandra's crying became louder. She didn't care if her face looked messy in front of Eric."I can't live without you; this loneliness could kill me, Casey.""Tsk," Cassandra chuckled, then looked away."Look, I'm sick now because I overthink about you.""Believe me, you mean a lot in my life.""Don't cry; my heart hurts when I see your eyes shed tears."Cassandra gave in; she couldn't be angry with Eric because, in reality, her heart really missed this man and hoped that Eric would forgive her."You want to forgive me, right?"Cassandra
"G-grandma," said Cassandra and Eric together.Cassandra immediately jumped off the gurney. Ashamed, afraid and not ready to face Rossy. Where does she want to put her face before Eric's grandmother? The woman told her to look after Eric. However, she was caught sleeping in the same bed as his grandson."Eric!" Rossy glared at Eric. "What are you doing? You're sick, but you can do indecent things?""Grandma, it's not Eric's fault." Cassandra approached Rossy. She feared the old woman would get sick because her high blood pressure was rising."You're innocent, Casey. My grandson really needs to be taught a lesson." Rossy put her hands on her hips and ignored Cassandra's explanation."Grandma," Eric slowly got off the gurney."Eric, be careful; the IV bottle still hangs above." Cassandra rushed to Eric and took the IV bottle from the pillar."Come on, explain now. As a man, you must be gentle in admitting your mistakes.""It wasn't her fault. It was purely my fault, Grandma.""What?!""
