A Graduation Gift

Charlie explained while comforting Amanda with a claptrap face.

"Then, tell me. How could I stop him from loving her?"

As a matter of fact, Amanda had a plan. But she decided to be an innocent and poor girl in front of her father, hoping that he would solve the problem for her. In that way, she would not have to do it herself and would avoid the possibility that Rufus might blame her should he find out that she had set a trap for Cassandra.

But when it came to Charlie that would be a different thing. He was Rufus's respected teacher. Even when he would do something to Cassandra to make her leave Rufus, Rufus would never say a word to blame him. Amanda was certain about it.

When Charlie was about to speak something to answer Amanda's question, there was a knock on the door.

Both the father and the daughter exchanged looks with each other and then Charlie answered, "Come in, please!"

The door opened, and it was Horace. He was standing at the door, wearing a gay smile.

"Mr. Tang?! What brings you here!"

Amanda exclaimed, she was totally shocked and confused as to what brought Horace to give her a visit.

"Oh, how about you call me Uncle Horace from now on!"

Horace smiled and walked in. When he saw Charlie, he was sure that he must be Amanda's father judging from their resemblance.
