Cassandra

“Thank you for recommending your friend to Erica.”

Cillian glanced toward the woman with short red hair sitting about five tables away from us. She was Erica, currently talking with the lawyer who would be handling her divorce.

My friend Karina took on her case and said she could handle it. I was sure that was also because the fee she would receive was quite large. I couldn’t blame her for that, wanting good pay for one’s work is only natural.

At this first meeting, Cillian asked me t

  • The Wife He Never Wanted   Chapter 557

    WindyToday was the opening day of my jewelry store.My mom helped a lot by spreading the news, and of course Tucker and Aunt Erica helped too.They often helped me take care of everything.I also can’t deny that Kael helped me.That guy would sometimes come here, and besides helping, he also made things difficult whenever he got clingy.There were some problems and drama, and an overwhelming amount of exhaustion that often made me complain.Even so, everything ended up going smoothly.“Congratulations on your store opening. A lot of people seem to like it.”Kael came over and immediately hugged me. He kissed my cheek, making me smile.“Yeah, I’m happy everything went smoothly.”At this moment, it really felt like all my effort had paid off. I didn’t feel like any of it had been wasted. At the far end of the place, I saw Tucker.He simply raised one hand and gave me a small wave.And then I saw his expression turn surprised as he looked toward the entrance.It made sense that he was s

    KaelI’m uncomfortable in a situation like this.I’ve never felt this way before, and I think… maybe I made a mistake by repeatedly pushing Windy to become my girlfriend.During the days she ignored me, I tried not to think about it too much.I mean, I lived my life as usual.Going out, meeting friends, partying, and just continuing to drink.But all I could think about was Windy.When I came to her house, I tried to handle things calmly.I wanted to talk casually and avoid bringing up how our relationship could change.But after finding out she was going with Tucker and seeing their interactions, I genuinely felt angry.Tucker…Was that guy really the kind of person women liked?I felt more and more pressured, and after I kissed Windy, I ended up bringing up our relationship again.Yeah, that was my mistake.But I really don’t want to separate from Windy.Isn’t she just as innocent as before? And if she can’t protect herself, what she might end up with could be even worse than being

    WindyA gentle touch on my lips made me look at him.“Done?” I asked. “Let go, I’m going over there now.”But Kael grabbed my hand instead, stopping me from immediately going back to where my mother was.I clicked my tongue and looked at him.“I’ve been gone too long, Kael.”His expression stayed calm. Right now, he was even raising one eyebrow, teasing me a little. Even though I tried to pull my hand away, he still refused to let go.“Kael… you’re the one who insisted on coming with us on this picnic. You didn’t even need to come at all.”I stared at him, reminding him again of what had happened two hours earlier.Today, my mom and Tucker’s mom apparently had a plan. The two of them wanted to spend the day relaxing. That was why we were having a picnic today—not at a park near the house or in the city, but out in the countryside.They said the place was peaceful and refreshing.At the moment we were about to leave, Kael suddenly came to the house and asked to join us, and my mom allo

    Windy“Ah?”I almost choked when I heard his extremely shocking words.I looked into his eyes, my gaze trembling, but his eyes remained calm and deep. Now I was the one feeling unease in my own heart.I covered my mouth and swallowed uncomfortably.“Stop talking nonsense, Kael.”He moved even closer to me, placing both hands beside me, trapping my movement at that moment.The moment I looked into his eyes again, he leaned in and brought his lips to mine, kissing me more forcefully than before. Then his hand rested on my stomach.“I’m serious, Windy.”Hearing those words, my heart became completely unsettled, so I pushed him away. Kael slightly gave in, falling down beside me.“With our relationship being like this, I think dating you wouldn’t be a loss at all.”I immediately stared at him sharply. I stayed silent because I felt an overwhelming sense of awkwardness.In a relationship as close as ours, the idea of us dating or being serious had never even crossed my mind.Looking at him

    Windy“So look, you seem completely fine.”His voice was gentle, followed by the sound of him placing a glass near me, making me look at him.“It’s hard to admit, but I agree with what that guy said—that you’d be fine if you stopped forcing your choice on Miles.”The corner of my lips lifted.“You and he are friends, I thought. But it turns out you and Tucker have issues?”Kael dropped himself onto the sofa as he let out a long sigh.“It’s not like that. He’s just annoying sometimes.”Did I really believe what he had just said so easily?I leaned closer to him. After I had told him about my feelings for Miles, he should tell me something about himself too.“Really? Have you two ever fought over a woman?”His brows furrowed, and he looked like he was genuinely thinking about what I had said.“No. I never have. It’s just that sometimes Tucker likes causing trouble at parties.”He avoided eye contact with me.“Poor Miles. Sometimes he’s forced to attend those parties.”I knew I hadn’t tr

    Tucker“What exactly are you thinking?”Hearing the man’s voice, I looked at him with slight annoyance. I don’t know why I reacted that way—or maybe I really was a little irritated at Miles because he was being overly suspicious of Windy.“You’re thinking about that woman?”This time, he managed to annoy me again.“You’re acting differently this time. Not like the usual Tucker. You… don’t seem to be enjoying yourself anymore.”Miles responded casually while leaning back onto the sofa. Seeing him playing with his phone while smiling, I knew he was probably texting Diana.“What do you mean? You think I’m dating Windy?”Miles lowered his phone and nodded.“Maybe. Since she doesn’t seem interested in me anymore, I thought you managed to capture her heart and make her move away from me.”My mouth felt heavy trying to talk about this.Before, I had felt pressured and thought I was actually going to do something about Windy. Maybe it was because I was angry and wanted to solve everything qui

    CassandraWas there anything more shocking than what he had just said? I couldn’t say anything in response to such a bold confession.A stalker? I was actually very uncomfortable with that word—it felt as though I had never truly had any freedom.Honestly, I knew that the many times he had run into

    CassandraAfter my hand was no longer in a cast, I felt much freer and could do many things again.Today, I had a goal: to cook pasta that Miles likes. Sometimes I think that I can’t be a good mother to Miles because I can’t always cook for him. I know that feeling only comes from my desire to give

    CassandraI don’t know how she managed to get my phone number. But I felt pleased when I heard the panic in her voice.Threats are often made when people are cornered.A smirk tugged at my lips. “I won’t withdraw the report, Tessa.”I didn’t mishear it, she was groaning, clearly furious at my words
