I rushed back to the Gordon family’s mansion, and the tension hit me as soon as I walked in.Mary was pacing around the living room. When she saw me, it was like she had found her savior. She hurried over. “Cassia, they’re in the study. Take this tea to Tyler and see if you can calm him down. I’ve never seen him this mad before. He slapped Zach twice as soon as he saw him. He wasn’t even this furious three years ago.”What happened three years ago did not come close to this. Cameron backing out of the partnership was a big deal. The project was good, but it was way too big for anyone to take on alone.Only a company as big as Cameron’s had the resources to handle something like this. A lot of other companies just could not do it.If Gordon Corporation tried to take it on alone, it would require a huge amount of money. Projects this size took years to finish, and the costs would keep piling up.I agreed, and Mrs. Zaffino quickly handed me the tea along with the tray. Mary squeezed

I nodded. “Okay, let’s go inside.”“I really don’t get what Cecilia’s thinking. She did something so dumb and still tried to talk to Mr. Quinlan’s daughter. Is that really going to help?” the driver mumbled.“Of course it’s not going to help. Cecilia knows that,” I replied. “She’s not trying to talk to Rachel. She wants Zach to see that she’s trying to make things right and that she’s willing to put aside her pride as an heiress for him.”“She can’t keep up her pride as an heiress for long.”He was right. Everyone knew that Wilson Corporation was struggling.When I entered Sophie’s house, Rachel was still awake. She sat on the bed and played with some building blocks.It was getting late, so Sophie complained, “She was about to sleep. My mom and I each told her six stories. I talked so much that my mouth got dry, and she started yawning. But then, Cecilia showed up and woke her up.”“It’s okay,” I said. “I’ll stay with her until she sleeps. You should go ahead and rest in your r

“There won’t be a next time.”I looked at him. “If there’s a next time, you might as well resign from Yonder Trading. The requirements to get in aren’t that low.”Zach stared at me for a moment before he walked away.It looked like I was the big winner. Cecilia had been forced to leave Yonder Trading, and Tyler had shut her out completely. I did not even have to lift a finger, but what did I actually win?Around 8 p.m., I received a call from Rachel. “Cassia, we’re home!” she said happily.“What time is it in Spain?”“It’s still daytime.”“Oh, you still need to take a shower, brush your teeth, and get some sleep,” I said.Then, the camera shifted, and I suddenly saw Cameron. He was shirtless because he was changing.I did not have time to look away. Cameron and I made eye contact through the screen. He laughed in resignation and turned around. “Rachel, don’t you know that Cassia’s a lady and I’m a guy?”“But you proposed to Cassia this morning, didn’t you?”I was speechles

“You’re not drop-dead gorgeous.”I was not happy with that. “Are you saying I’m not pretty?”“In my opinion, you’re not the most beautiful.”“Then, who is?” After I learned that Austin was not into me, I became curious.“Why do you care? I tried calling Sophie earlier, but she didn’t pick up.”“Really? Let me try.”While I called her, I entered the elevator and bumped into Zach as he stepped out.Austin nodded at him, and Zach asked, “Going out for lunch?”“Just the two of us.” I pulled Austin into the elevator. “No extra company.”As the doors closed, Austin shook his head. “When did you get so petty? Besides, Zach didn’t even want to come.”“Better be safe than awkward.” I finally got through to Sophie. “What are you doing? Why didn’t you answer Austin’s call?”“Are you with Austin?” she whispered.“Yeah, we’re grabbing lunch. Spicy shrimp.”“N-No thanks.”“What’s wrong?”“I’m busy. The shop’s packed today.”“Are all your employees dead or something?”“Don’t curse th

Our spicy shrimp had arrived. So, Sophie grabbed some forks and spoons before she joined us.I ordered two levels of spiciness. Since Austin could not really handle spicy food, I got him the mild one and got Sophie the spicy one.She loved it. I looked at her and said, “Didn’t someone just say they didn’t want to eat?”“Someone? Who?” She laughed.Ugh, Sophie could be so thick-skinned when we were not talking about feelings. But as soon as we brought up relationships, she would get all shy.What a coward.However, just having courage was not enough when it came to feelings.I was brave, and I had always made the first move with Zach, but it did not matter.I still ended up divorcing him.Forget it. There was no use thinking about it.I had not eaten spicy food in a while, so I found even the mild shrimp too spicy. I rinsed it in my grapefruit tea before I ate it. Sophie looked at me in disgust and said, “How can you eat like that?”“Don’t talk with your mouth full.”“Aren’t
