A Graduation Gift

Chapter 248 The Trap (Part One)

It seemed as if Cassandra had been stripped of all her privacy and freedom. There was always someone to drive her to work and take her back to the Garden Villa. They even followed her when she went shopping or simply took a walk on the street! The mania was driving her crazy!

"Can you please ask your people to stop following me?"

She finally started to negotiate with Rufus. She felt so uncomfortable being eyed all the time, but had no other choice.

"Of course. I will ask them to be unnoticeable,"

Rufus said, shrugging with a nonchalant look which angered Cassandra.

"What I want is for them to vanish! I don't want to be tailed after! I don't want them near me whatsoever! I don't want to be monitored! I am not a criminal!"

Cassandra said, finally breaking lose. She glared at Rufus in the hope that he would see she was genuinely frustrated. On the contrary, he wore a casual smile. Oh, how she wished she could wipe it off his face!

"Okay, okay. Even if you're not a criminal, you're still someone who has escaped me once. What if you run away again? I need to keep an eye on you, right?" Rufus said, teasingly.

His unbothered attitude annoyed her to the bone.

"What the hell, Rufus! Do you think I'll just disappear into thin air? Just tell them to stop following me! I really cannot take it anymore," Cassandra demanded.

She controlled the urge to shout at him and tried talking some sense into him, instead. But Rufus was so stuck on his point that he angered her even more! In the end, she had to keep herself sane by clenching her teeth and fists.

"Alright, then. Agree to marry me, and I'll order my people to stay away from you."

Rufus's mouth turned into a mischievous smile as he raised his eyebrows at her. Cassandra felt defeated.
