Chapter 219 A Heartbreaking Scene (Part Two)

'Well, forget about it. Amanda is sick now. Rufus takes care of her as a friend. That's all.'

Moments later, she braced herself up and decided to stop thinking about them.

She felt bored staying at home alone. So she decided to go out and took a walk. When she passed a bakery, an inviting delicious scent of bread and pastries diffused out from it. Cassandra couldn't resist the smell and walked in, intending to pick up some pieces of bread.

While she was inside the bakery and her head low while choosing among the variety of bread, the door opened. A woman came in, then she said happily, "Come here, Rufus. The bread here is super good. I want to buy some!"

Through the bread shelves, Cassandra saw Amanda walking into the bakery. She was stunned at the sight of her.

Her body was held frozen while her brain started to work quickly. Immediately, she turned around and hid in a forgotten corner.

Rufus walked in with an uninterested expression on his face.

He had planned to leave after paying a visit to Amanda. But unexpectedly, Amanda changed her clothes secretly and claimed that she wanted to go out to have a walk. Rufus was unable to make her change her mind. So he had to go out and keep her accompany.

But in his heart, he was still thinking about Cassandra. She was alone in the apartment and she must feel lonely. All Rufus wanted was that Amanda would finish buying the bread quickly so that he would send her back to the hospital and go back to Cassandra.

He stood beside the cashier counter and didn't step inside further. The waitress's face turned red and her heart beat fast when Rufus leaned against the counter, close to her.

Amanda picked some loaves of bread with a pleasant look on her face.

Earlier in the hospital, Rufus went out and waited for Amanda to get prepared to go out. He left his phone in the ward, then Amanda happened to see Cassandra's message. So she replied to her and deleted the messages afterward.

With her little trick done, Amanda felt exhilarated at the thought that Cassandra would spend a boring and gloomy night alone.

"I'd pick some for you, Rufus. Your breakfast!"

The overjoyed woman chose some that Rufus liked and raised her hand to him as if she was waiting for his praise. Her smile was as sweet as honey.

Some waitresses whispered among themselves.

"Look at that man! He's so gorgeous! He looks like a superstar!"

"Stop whispering like an idiot. He's Rufus Luo, the president of Tang Group. He is the richest bachelor in G City. Look at that woman! She's Amanda Ke, a famous pianist. They were born to be a couple. Feeling jealous of her? Look at you! You are almost slobbering."

"Oh. She is even more beautiful than the stars. I admire her so much."

"Yes, she has a beautiful face. What's more, she has an influential family background! She is way out of our league."

"Oh, I want to ask for her autograph!"

A girl with a pen and notebook in her hand walked to Amanda and asked for her autograph. Amanda was a generous woman. She signed the autograph for her fan and even took a picture with her. The girlBelongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

was so delighted that she jumped with joy.

Cassandra, hiding in a far and lowly corner, saw everything.

Probably Rufus and Amanda were an excellent match in everyone's mind.

A perfect man like Rufus was doomed to marry a perfect woman like Amanda.

With the thought in mind, Cassandra felt a sense of inferiority in her heart. Her pride was wounded badly by the scene.

Hiding in the corner, Cassandra was imbued with frustration. She couldn't help stepping back to make sure they would not see her. She didn't want herself to show up in front of them so pathetically.

After rummaging through the bread shelves, Amanda paid for the bread she bought and then walked out with Rufus, her hand holding Rufus's arm.

After they left, Cassandra walked out from the corner. She already lost the desire to buy something now.

So she pushed the door open and walked out, then headed for her apartment slowly with a heavy heart.

Cassandra felt like she was a fool. What did Rufus text her?

'In the hospital? But why was he keeping her accompany to the bakery now? What did I see just now? He's lied to me!' Cassandra thought angrily.

If she had not gone out today, if she had not walked into this bakery, she would never know the truth. God helped her to know the truth.

'Cassandra, stop being a fool anymore. He doesn't belong to you and he does not care for you, ' Cassandra talked to herself.

She was still alone when she was back. Cassandra took a shower like a puppet and then put herself to bed. However, no matter how she tried to fall asleep, it didn't work anyway.

Tossing and turning on her bed, she couldn't help wondering what Amanda and Rufus would do when they were staying together at night.

The feelings of mixed emotions inside her left a hollow inside her heart. She was confused about whether to trust Rufus again or not. Moreover, a million thoughts were running on her mind.

Suddenly, the bell rang. Cassandra was distracted by the ring. She walked to the door and opened it.

With a paper bag in his hand, Rufus was beaming while standing at the door. He raised the bag to Cassandra and shook it.

"I brought you this bread. I heard it tastes good,"

Rufus said to her happily. However, in Cassandra's eyes, his smiling face was so unpleasant.

Tears rolled down from her eyes all of a sudden without any sign in advance.
