Kenny leaned in, flashing a wide grin. "Hey guys," he exclaimed, catching their attention.Alex couldn't help but exclaim in awe, "O-M-G, Cassandra, you look amazing!"Feeling a bit unsure of herself, Cassandra asked, "Do I look nice?"But Alex's response was less than tactful. "Nice? My thoughts are far from nice!" A sharp punch from Kenny landed on Alex's shoulder, and he quickly backtracked, "How crass! Cassandra, you make me want to go straight!"Trying to lighten the mood, Cassandra joked, "Don't you think something's missing?" They both looked her up and down, which made her feel a bit self-conscious.After a moment of thought, Kenny spoke up. "I know what it is. You need a clutch to carry your makeup and phone. A backpack won't do." Cassandra nodded in agreement, appreciating Kenny's practical suggestion."Thank you for reminding me," I said with a sense of relief. "I knew it!"Alex chimed in, "No problem, we can grab one on the way, but it has to be quick."Feeling overwhelmed

I inquired, maintaining my composure despite my seething rage. "What else did you require?" "You had a gentleman who would have covered all of your expenses, taken you to the most exquisite restaurants and exclusive holiday destinations. And then I showed up and ruined everything?"Julie reacted negatively to my words, but I gestured with my hand to stop her from retaliating. "Do not even think of laying a hand on me," I cautioned her. "If you touch me, you'll lose that arm. You know where I come from."Julie stared me down with a challenge in her gaze and issued me an ultimatum. "You have one month to persuade Jasper about me," she said, grinning wickedly. "I'm willing to bet that I can make him forget about you and this phony marriage."With a firm clench of my jaw, I felt a surge of determination course through me. "I'm ready," I replied resolutely, turning to distance myself from her toxic presence.As I made my way back to the table, Jasper inquired if everything was alright. Thou

After dropping the subject, Kenny couldn't resist asking, "Who do you think did this?"With frustration audible in my voice, I replied, "I have no clue."Suddenly, I sat upright with determination and declared, "I want to bring her down."Perplexed, Kenny inquired, "Who?""Julie. I must ensure that she loses. I won't allow Jasper to marry her. I don't care if he doesn't love me, but I won't let him marry her."Alex interjected, his voice soothing, "Hold on, Cassandra. I understand your emotions, but don't let him drag you down. You are worth more than that. You deserve better. We will help you bring him down, but first, we need to devise a plan."With tears in her eyes, Cassandra gazed up at Alex and whispered, "I know, Alex. But I can't help it. I genuinely care about him, and I don't want to see him suffer again." Alex and Kenny shared a meaningful glance. Having witnessed Cassandra's painful past relationships, they too wanted to shield her from further heartbreak."You're right, Ca

"I'm sorry, Jasper, but I don't want to deal with unnecessary drama," I said firmly when he brought up an idea. He tried to interject, but I cut him off again. He threw his hands up in frustration and gave in with an "Alright."Then, to my surprise, Jasper made a request that caught me off guard. "I want you to come back home," he said, turning to me. Julie gasped in shock, and I raised my eyebrows in surprise.Julie attempted to intervene, but Jasper silenced her with a gesture. I maintained my composure and calmly responded, "Jasper, I don't think that's a good idea."Jasper informed Sandy that his parents were planning to stay with them for a few days. He mentioned that his parents were aware that they were living together and would be concerned if Sandy was not present. Although Jasper could cover for a day or two, he feared that any longer would lead to suspicion.This news left Sandy feeling disappointed, but she took comfort in the fact that Julie was equally upset. "Alright," s

Cassandra 's POVAs I sat there contemplating the intricate task of exposing Julie's ulterior motives to Jasper, without causing him irreparable harm, I was acutely aware of the delicate nature of the situation. It was imperative that I prevent him from being deceived by Julie's superficial intentions, but I also knew that I had to approach the situation with finesse, as any misstep could have grave consequences. If he were to continue his relationship with Julie, it would be extremely challenging to undo any damage that had already been done.As I lost myself in my thoughts, my brow furrowed in frustration. Suddenly, Jane returned with a lighthearted comment, "Whoa! You're going to get wrinkles from that!"Despite my worries, her humor managed to elicit a smile from me. "Ha-ha, you're funny," I responded, attempting to brush off my concerns.Jane, however, remained unconvinced. "Nope, I'm just stating a fact. What's on your mind?" she inquired, her concern apparent.I hesitated before

Jasper frowned disapprovingly as he spoke to Julie, "Please don't act silly." Jasper was raised with traditional values, where he believed in paying for dates and taking care of his partner. Julie smirked at him, seeming to claim victory in their exchange.Feeling frustrated, but determined not to let Julie's comment get to her, the protagonist suddenly had an idea. "I know!" she exclaimed. "I need to buy some shampoo and body lotion. Let's go to the store!" Alex took her hand, and Kenny walked by her side as they headed towards the Body Shop. Jasper followed behind.Once inside the store, the group spent a lot of time admiring the different products, with Kenny and the protagonist enthusiastically exclaiming over them. Alex stood back, amused. The protagonist was thrilled to be able to buy her favorite Strawberry body butter, Banana shampoo and conditioner, and even a body mist. These were once considered luxuries, but she was now able to afford them.Kenny's excitement was palpable a

Jasper posed the question, "What should we do now?" to which I responded with a shrug. Alex and Kenny exchanged pensive glances, and then Kenny proposed the idea, "Maybe we could catch a movie." I shrugged once more, feeling indifferent towards the suggestion.Julie interjected, "Why don't we go drinking instead?" The notion of drinking didn't appeal to me, and I wrinkled my nose in disgust. Jasper quickly vetoed the idea, stating, "Sandy doesn't drink, so that's not an option." I couldn't resist grinning in triumph as three of us were against Julie's proposal and none were in favor.Julie looked as if she was on the brink of exploding, but the boys paid no heed to her demands and instead discussed which movie to watch. Ultimately, it was decided that we would watch a movie at Jasper's place. The boys generously allowed me to choose the movie, as I was feeling down."Yay, The Alchemist!" I exclaimed excitedly, but Jasper and Alex responded with groans of displeasure.Julie proposed, "W

"Are you absolutely certain? I'm fine with whatever you choose. I simply need to use the restroom urgently!" exclaimed Cassandra in frustration.I chuckled at her irritation and motioned for her to go ahead. Then I directed my attention towards Julie."I believe it's my responsibility to determine who qualifies as a guest in my own house," I asserted firmly.Julie appeared taken aback by my statement. "But, Jasper, she isn't even a guest! She's the hired help!""She's not just an employee!" I raised my voice, my desire to protect Cassandra surfacing. "Don't ever refer to her in that manner. She's like a friend to me. Do not dare to call her anything else."Julie's hand rested on my shoulder, but she quickly removed it, acknowledging her mistake. "I apologize," she murmured, her tone contrite. "I had no idea that you had such strong feelings for her.""You do now," I retorted icily, turning away from her. However, my attention was abruptly diverted by Cassandra's urgent yell from my bed
