A Graduation Gift novel Chapter 219

'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!"
