A Graduation Gift
Chapter 263 Living Together After Breaking Up (Part One)
Cassandra took a few steps back, clutching the clothes on her chest.
The sudden memory sent a shiver down her spine. Everything made sense now. All the questions she had no answer to were finally clicking into place.
Now she knew why her father didn't like her from her childhood, and why he seemed so distant. He must have thought wrongly of her all along.
She had been sent to the small town because her family was afraid that she would hurt her sister again.
She had deliberately forgotten it, but today, there was no escape from the onslaught of memories that came back to her.
Cassandra stood shaking; next to her, her mother Edith was paled.
"Children can say whatever they like. Don't take their words seriously," Edith said, her voice cracking despite its low tone.
She still wanted to defend Cloris, but Cloris burst out, "I won't apologize. That accident happened years ago! It's not my fault that Courtney chose not to let it go. It has nothing to do with me!"
With those words, Cloris stormed out, bumping into Cassandra on the way. Cassandra lost her balance from the sudden impact and fell to the ground, her eyes absent.
Cloris pushed the door open and rushed out, leaving Cassandra and Edith behind.
"Cassandra, why didn't you stop Cloris?"
Edith stood up and anxiously ran after her younger daughter, while Cassandra lay on the floor unmoving, a bitter smile plastered across her face.
Whitney sighed at the scene that unfolded and walked up to Cassandra. She took her arm and helped her stand on her feet, leading her like a child to sit down on the sofa.
