A Graduation Gift

Amanda eagerly expressed, wanting Rufus to understand her devotion. The reason behind Rufus's accident was known to Amanda. 'I hold Cassandra responsible for it! While he was driving the car, she called him saying she wanted to break up. If it wasn't for that wretched woman, my Rufus wouldn't be in this condition, ' she thought angrily.

Amanda had done everything to her best ability in order to undermine their relationship. She deliberately made Cassandra misunderstand her relationship with Rufus. It seemed that her plan was finally bearing fruit. Thinking of that, a feeling of joy rose in her heart.

Hearing Amanda's mention of Cassandra, Rufus once again felt a sharp pain.

It evoked the recollection of what had happened right before his accident. Adamantly, Cassandra proposed to break up with him. She seemed so determined to break ties with him that she handed him the key of Garden Villa.

Her aloof attitude aggrieved him. He was struck by the knowledge that Cassandra would give up on their love so easily. However, he still didn't want Amanda to fill the void left by Cassandra. He couldn't possibly love Amanda or any other woman the way he loved Cassandra.

"Amanda, stop acting so childish. You very well know that the woman I love isn't you. I consider you as my sister. Then why are you wasting your time trying to please me? It will never happen!"

Rufus said trying to add some sense into Amanda's mind. Slowly, he tried to pull his hands free from Amanda's grip, but he was too feeble to do it.

"Rufus, I love you from the bottom of my heart. It pains me when you behave so coldly. Nothing you say or do will bring any change to my feelings. I will never give up on you, unlike Cassandra,"

Amanda said emotionally and fixated her tear-filled eyes on Rufus's face.

"Amanda, please don't hurt yourself for my sake. I don't deserve you,"

Rufus replied with a sigh. Amanda was too persistent. No matter what he said, she wouldn't take no for an answer. She continued with her pursuit on winning Rufus.
