A Graduation Gift

Chapter 434 Clark's Threat

Clark looked down at the envelope in Cassandra's hand, frowning.

"Cassandra, what do you mean by this?" he asked, almost in an inquiring tone.

Even though the envelope was closed, he could deduce by its bulging shape that it was filled with money.

"Mr. Ji, I am sorry I've troubled you for so long. My sister is back. It is going to be really inconvenient for you if the three of us continue staying in your house. I have talked to my mother. She and my sister will move back to our own house. As for me, I will be with Lyndsy, so I won't be coming back very often. I looked up the rent in this area, so this is an approximate number for the days we've stayed here,"

Cassandra said, looking apologetic but at the same time, indifferent.

"Cassandra, I really don't care about the money. I only want to help you."

Clark seemed anxious and discomforted.

"I know that, Mr. Ji. But I don't want anyone to think of me as someone who takes advantage of others. You must keep this money as rent."

Cassandra extended her hand to Clark, determined to keep it there till he accepted it.

"Why are you acting this way? Is there anything I've done wrong? Is it about the place? Why do you have to leave? You don't like it?"

He feigned a sad look, while trying to fathom what her real intention was.

'It seems like she has decided to go back to Rufus. Otherwise, why would she hurry to leave in this way?' he surmised.

To confirm his suspicion, the expression on Cassandra's face changed as she finally decided to tell Clark the truth.

"Clark...Rufus and I...have decided to be back together," she said in a low voice.

The moment she said those few words she felt relieved. It felt good to finally say it.

"Are you sure, Cassandra? What happens to Amanda?" he asked, shaking his head.

What he didn't know was Amanda had done something terribly silly, which Rufus eventually found out. So he still attempted to stir Cassandra's aversion for Rufus by bringing up Amanda.
