A Graduation Gift

Chapter 269 Traces Of Woman (Part One)

Cassandra entered her apartment, extremely exhausted.

The past few days had been torturous for her and had consumed all her energy. Fortunately, she had made out alive. She felt pretty lucky about that.

The unicorn still lay beside her pillow. Cassandra turned on her side and looked up at its glassy eyes.

They seemed gentle and adorable, almost smiling at her. But tonight, Cassandra couldn't reciprocate.

The man who had given her this very unicorn might never be able to come back to her. And from now on, she would have to face the reality alone and undertake everything that followed.

Suddenly, someone knocked on her door. Cassandra knitted her eyebrows at the sound of it. Who could it be, at this hour?

She walked to the door, tying her hair in a loose bun. She peeped through the eyehole and then opened the door instantly.

"Ivy? What are you doing here?"

Cassandra put her guard up immediately, looking at the uninvited visitor standing at her door right now.

"I heard you've been let out. So I came to check up on how everything is going."

Ivy smiled, as if she was completely oblivious to the resistance Cassandra exerted against her.

"Thank you for your concern. I'm fine and I'm going to rest now. Thanks again, for dropping by. Bye."

Cassandra tried to end the conversation immediately. When she recalled that Ivy had intentionally designed an accident to set her up and replace her position in the Tang family, she reminded herself to be alert around her, no matter what she said or did.
