A Graduation Gift novel Chapter 254

"I won't cook for you anymore!"

Cassandra pouted. Rufus was being critical about the dishes she prepared. It made her feel irritated and unappreciated. She'd rather stop cooking for him.

Cassandra threw the chopsticks onto the dining table, adding more of a dramatic effect and then stormed off. She went to the study to work on her design. The last thing she felt like was talking to Rufus.

Rufus couldn't help smiling seeing her angry. Cassandra was beautiful, but when angry she was exquisite. His little woman was so dramatically cute. He thought so while staring at her leaving.

Since she didn't eat much for dinner, Rufus warmed a cup of milk then walked over to the study to put the cup on her desk. Sitting down opposite her, he stared at the little woman intently.

Cassandra ignored him, playing she was still angry. She let him do whatever he wanted, while still focusing on the design.

Rufus kept staring at her, becoming passionately aroused. He began distracting her, as she felt his desire in his eyes warm her. She couldn't concentrate any longer.

"What do you want now?" she exclaimed, knowing full well the answer.

She closed the notebook and looked at him. He had fixated his eyes on her, as though she was some exotic, rare creature. Cassandra couldn't withstand his gaze any longer.

"You."

Rufus gave her a simple reply in a flirting tone, as he smiled slyly.

Cassandra's face turned red, at the thought of his intentions in his eyes. He loved playing these games with her. Teasing her as his eyes roamed all over her body, and causing her to feel his emotions coming through.

Rufus came over to her and hugged her in his arm, kissing her passionately for a long time, as his hands stroked her body gently.

A smile ventured around the corners of his mouth, as dark arousal framed his passion filled eyes. He scooped her up and took her to the bed. Their night had just began.

In an exclusive club in G City, Cassandra was dining with a client. They were laughing and talking about business ideas and issues they might have to overcome.

The door opened. A waitress walked in, holding a decorative plate of sweets they had ordered.

Cassandra felt her blood freeze, as she glanced at the waitress.

It was Cloris, her younger sister! Cassandra's mind became unleashed with questions. 'Why is she here in this establishment, working as a waitress? What has happened to her studies?' she thought in worries.

As Cloris noticed Cassandra, she paused for a moment, turned on her heels and began to leave the room.

Cassandra stood up and caught her by her arm.

"Cloris! Why are you here?"

Cassandra frowned. her mind in such a mess now.

'Wasn't Cloris supposed to be studying abroad now? When did she come back to G City. What is she up to?' Cassandra kept asking herself. 'She still has credits to earn at the university abroad. What is she doing to her future?' she thought, distressed.

Suddenly Cassandra remembered the time when Whitney told her she'd seen Cloris. At that time she hadn't taken it seriously, thinking Whitney probably saw someone else. But unexpectedly, here stood Cloris.

"Leave me. This is none of your business!" Cloris declared defiantly.

She shook off Cassandra's hand and ran out of the room quickly.

The client, knowing something was defiantly wrong, felt awkward and reserved another time to talk to Cassandra. They would then battle to focus on business. Saying goodbye to the client, Cassandra apologized for the drama. Sitting alone, she tried to process her plan of action, feeling upset. She pushed her hands through her hair.

Later, she went over to talk to the manager of the club, wanting to learn more about Cloris.
