Victor saw no reason to hide the whereabouts of his boss to Cassandra.

"Thank you, Victor!"

After hanging up the phone, Cassandra went straight to where Rufus was supposed to be, without thinking twice. The eagerness to divulge was overwhelming and she felt like she could not make through another minute without telling Rufus that she was pregnant.

All of this made Rufus uneasy all day.

The more he thought about, the less well it sat with him. Motivated by concern, he couldn't help calling Cassandra's phone. However, fearing that what he had guessed all along could be true, in the end, he cut the call as he didn't feel like talking to her about this matter anymore.

"Rufus, I made salmon sushi today. Quick, have a taste!"

With a happy smile on her lips, she completely disregarded his cold face and started setting the plates in front of him one by one.

"Amanda, please stop this. You don't need to bring me lunch in the future."
