A Graduation Gift

Chapter 403 Rufus Changed (Part Two)

"Cassandra, when I can finally settle all the things that I've come here to accomplish, I'm gonna take you away from here, away from this wretched city. We'll go to any country of your choosing, anywhere you fancy, and then we'll settle down there, wherever that may be, so we could live happily and forget all of the things that happened here. Will you come with me?"

Rufus wrapped his arm around her shoulders and touched the back of her head to push her against his chest.

His powerful heartbeat brought music to her ears. It was unflinching yet soothing at the same time.

Cassandra broke into tears at once and they even got into Rufus's clothes.

Those words had brought music to her ears, and the picture he was painting just felt so real and so enticing. But Cassandra had already been through a lot during their time together. She wasn't sure whether it would be right to give him a chance again or not.

"Please stop crying. I swear I'm gonna make you happy every single day."

Rufus could feel that her shoulders were trembling, so he lifted his hand, caressed her cheek, and wiped off her tears dry.

Then he sealed her lips with his and kissed her passionately, unable to hold it in. Everything bad that had happened seemed to have gotten washed away the second their lips touched, all that was left were their hearts beating like a drum.

If she was being completely honest, the kiss managed to get rid of some of her worries, and so, Cassandra basked in Rufus's warmth, feeling quite relieved. She could tell that her heart was beginning to ease up and beat steadily.
