A Graduation Gift

"Cassandra, are you still keeping in touch with Rufus?"

Stella suddenly asked. The tone of Cassandra's voice baffled her, so she got a little bit worried.

That question seemed to have pulled Cassandra back into reality. Looking at her dearest friends, she thought that there was nothing to hide from them.

"Yes, I actually am. Rufus told me that, for a while now, Amanda has been so depressed and emotionally unstable. And because of her condition, he had been backed into a corner and had no choice but to get engaged to her to keep her in check..."

Before Cassandra could finish what she was trying to say, Stella abruptly slammed her hand onto the table and stood up.

"Cassandra, you've always been such a smart woman. How could you easily fall for his sweet lies so easily?
