Rebecca pursed her lips, looked at Orlando indifferently, and said in a low voice, “Today is my fanmeeting for my comeback. I ask for everyone to focus on my upcoming work. I don’t want to reveal too much about my private life. I will share it with. my fans if there’s any good news.”
Although Rebecca told everyone not to pry any further, she didn’t answer the question directly.
Thus, it aroused suspicion.
Meanwhile, sitting in the company’s office, Cassandra also saw the live broadcast. The man in the picture stood in a suit and leather shoes, while the woman beside him was in a long dress and wore exquisite makeup. It was hard for one not to imagine how close the two were,
Cassandra took a deep breath and put down the laptop, refusing to watch any further.
At that moment, the office door was pushed open.
Michael entered, looked Cassandra in the eye, and said, ‘Cassie, what does Orlando mean? He attended Rebecca’s fanmeeting in front of the media and reporters. Isn’t that saying he’s close with Rebecca?”
Cassandra lowered her head with an indifferent smile as she replied, “That’s his business.”
“Cassie, he treats you so unfairly. Why do you want to continue this marriage?” asked Michael.
Michael was agitated.
Cassandra looked at Michael calmly and said, “I know what you mean, but Michael, there are some things that only the parties involved understand. A marriage is not just about two people.”
Cassandra was willing to divorce, but Orlando used the Quinn family and Quinn Group as an excuse to delay it. She couldn’t. say no because the family and Peter treated her well.
Cassandra couldn’t disregard everything just to get rid of Orlando.
Cassandra simply couldn’t.
Michael wanted to say something more, but Cassandra interrupted, “Michael, I’m fine. Don’t feel bad for me. The experience in every stage of life is important for the individual. How can life be perfect?”
Michael was stunned at Cassandra’s smile. Instantly, an inexplicable look of sadness flashed in his eyes.
Michael muttered in his heart, ‘Cassie, I truly wished you’d stay as far away as possible from him. I’m afraid of you getting hurt.
Back at the backstage of Rebecca’s fanmeeting, Orlando walked out with a cold face.
Rebecca trotted after Orlando and said, “Landy. Landy, let me explain.”
Orlando stopped suddenly and turned to look at Rebecca.
Their eyes met, and Orlando asked indifferently, “Rebecca, what happened today will not happen again. I can indulge your little tantrum, but you can’t lie to me.”
After saying that, Orlando turned around and left. This time, he didn’t stop no matter what Rebecca said.
Rebecca stood still with tears in her eyes.
Rebecca recalled what happened earlier when the reporter asked Orlando if he had anything to say about his relationship. with Rebecca and if his silence meant that they were in a relationship or secretly married.
Then, Orlando looked at the audience grimly and replied coldly, “We have been friends for many years. Today is Rebecca’s fanmeeting. I hope you all can focus on Rebecca instead of making up some unwarranted topics to create buzz”
As soon as he finished, Orlando turned around and left the stage.
Rebecca pursed her lips tightly, feeling extremely dissatisfied.
Rebecca attributed all her dissatisfaction to Cassandra. After all, she wouldn’t have arranged for those reporters to ask Orlando those questions if Cassandra and him were already divorced. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
Thus, Rebecca thought it was all Cassandra’s fault. She felt Cassandra got in the way of her marrying Orlando.
Maliciousness grew inside Rebecca from the hate she had for Cassandra. She wanted to teach Cassandra a lesson.
At that moment, the manager caught up with Rebecca and said, “Rebecca, is Mr. Quinn upset?”
“No. He had to leave first for work. Let’s continue,” Cassandra replied with a smile.
Back on stage, Rebecca dedicated her old song to the fans. Her voice was as usual, and the incident was quickly forgotten.
However, some videos and photos of the scene were still posted online. Instantly, it was trending at number one.
At the Quinn manor, Peter almost went through the roof when he saw the trending topic.
Peter slammed the table and said, “What does Orlando mean by this? Is he stirring up trouble?”
Frederick immediately called Orlando when Peter was upset, but Taylor answered and said, “Mr. Quinn, Mr. Orlando Quinn is in a meeting now. Do-”
“Ask him to come to the Quinn manor immediately after the meeting, Frederick interrupted.
“Okay. I will,” answered Taylor.
After the call, Frederick hurriedly comforted Peter, “Dad, calm down. We’ll ask him about it when he comes back.”
“Ask? Why ask when there’s already evidence? Is he only going to be happy when I’m pissed off?” said Peter.
Peter was so furious that he already scolded Orlando a million times in his heart.
Peter then contacted Cassandra, but Cassandra reacted calmly and even comforted him. She asked him not to worry, which made Peter feel worse.
Finally, Orlando finished the meeting an hour later. Taylor immediately told him the news online and the phone call from the Quinn manor.
Orlando glanced at his phone and said, “Do I pay you to sit and do nothing? Why aren’t you removing those false accusations?”
Orlando’s eyes were cold and full of displeasure.
Taylor nodded and replied, “Mr. Quinn, I’m sorry. It’s my mistake. I will remove them immediately.”
Taylor quickly made some calls and had it arranged.
It turned out Taylor didn’t remove them immediately because he didn’t know if he should.
10:24 Wed, 1 May
After all, Orlando attended the fanmeeting. Thus, did it mean he agreed to it?
It was not until he saw Orlando’s unhappy face that Taylor finally had an answer.
Meanwhile, Orlando promptly called the Quinn manor after returning to his office. Peter had lay down after taking his medication, so Frederick answered the phone.
Frederick asked. “What the hell is going on? How could you have a rumor like that with Rebecca?”
“Dad, it’s just an accident. I just went to help as a friend,” replied Orlando.
“Take care of it. Don’t let your Grandpa worry anymore,” said Frederick.
“I understand.” said Orlando.
After the call, Orlando leaned back on his leather chair. He looked cold without showing any emotions.
Orlando kept staring at his phone, but there was no sound, not even a text.
Orlando’s face turned grim at that.
Orlando’s bad mood lasted until he left the Quinn Group. Sitting in the back seat of the car, he asked Taylor coldly, “Did Cassandra do anything today?”
Taylor was slightly stunned and wondered what Orlando meant.
Taylor glanced at Orlando through the rearview mirror and asked in a low voice, “Mr. Quinn, are you asking about Mrs. Quinn’s reaction after seeing the trending topic online!”
Orlando merely stared at Taylor coldly.
Taylor hurriedly said, “Sorry, Mr. Quinn. I misunderstood. But Mrs. Quinn didn’t come to the Quinn Group today, so I don’t know what her reaction is.”
