A Graduation Gift novel Chapter 257

Lionel had already organized a plan about the distribution of persons in charge and asked Rufus to sort the concert sponsorship part out.

"The marketing department will be responsible for it. You are the person in charge of marketing,"

Rufus dejected in a serious tone. He didn't want to be involved in Amanda's affair. He had been staying with Cassandra. He had enough tension when Amanda would come into the picture. He felt rather happy without her in their lives.

"All right, no arguing, Lionel will take charge of the theatre project and Rufus will do the concert. You are brothers. Don't fight over such stupid things."

Horace gave an authoritative order. A secret smile appeared on Lionel's mouth. He had alternative motives and they were playing out well.

One of the main business in the Tang Group was engineering construction. Lionel taking charge of the theatre project would enrich his professional experience. As for Rufus... he would be going to take care of the less important business, such as concert sponsorship.

Rufus's eyes darkened. Multiple emotions hid in them. He blinked his eyes and didn't say anything further, knowing his father would make a scene today, as he was still so sensitive.

Cassandra knocked loudly on the door and saw Cloris's eyes widen in surprise as the door opened.

Seeing it was Cassandra, Cloris tried to push the door shut immediately without contemplating. But Cassandra pushed against the door assertively and wedged her foot to keep it open.

"Cloris, let me in. I'm here to speak to you, sincerely!"

Cassandra looked at Cloris firmly. She visited here today in order to find out the reasons behind her sister's acts.

"Okay, You come in, and I go out, I don't care."

Cloris raised her eyebrows and bent over to put on her shoes. She didn't want to talk to her. There wasn't anything else she wanted to say.

"Cloris, calm down, please! I just want to know the details and find out more information. Tell me everything, okay?"

Seeing Cloris unwilling to spare one second to speak with her upset Cassandra. She knew she had to get her to see reason.

"Can you stop pretending, Cassandra? There is nobody else here. Stop pretending that you know nothing. Did you enjoy patronising me?"

Cloris smiled coldly with a disdainful look.

"You've completely misjudged me, Cloris. Listen and understand me, I never did anything to hurt you. I swear to God, please just hear me out!"

Cassandra bit her lower lip in annoyance and swore firmly.

Cloris stared at her for a while and then raised her chin, feeling tired and defeated.

"Okay! Let's talk then. Talk about everything, are you happy now? But now I'm hungry. We will talk after a good meal!"

Cloris never went back to work since her encounter with Cassandra in the club. She stayed at home and was frustrated, not knowing her next move. She didn't go out for food or a meal. Now she felt famished and could do with a feast to satisfy her hunger. She would have a frank conversation with Cassandra after her stomach was satisfied.

"Of course. It's on me! I would be glad to treat you." Cassandra smiled to her sister.

She followed Cloris closely. Rufus arranged a car and a chauffeur for her. They were stationed promptly outside the building, waiting for the word.

"He's good to you," Cloris said.

Seeing the new flashy vehicle, Cloris felt a sadness in her heart.

Arthur broke up with her. Then she abandoned her studies and came back to G City for Arthur on a whim of revenge. Compared to Cassandra, she was such a tragedy.

The chauffeur took them to a restaurant. Cassandra introduced it to Cloris smilingly, knowing she would appreciate fine dining this evening.

"They serve brilliant western cuisine. I love the food there, let's go!"

She was her younger sister, after all. They were dining at the best tonight. Cassandra couldn't help being good to Cloris. That was why this whole saga was very difficult to understand.

They sat down, speechless. Cloris lowered her head, sliding her fingers on the phone. She never looked at Cassandra.

They didn't talk much during the whole process. After the meal, they were ready to leave before a woman's voice stopped them.

"What a coincidence, Cassandra!"

A familiar female voice came from behind her. Cassandra took a closer look. It was Whitney.

She was wearing a traditional Chinese dress and looked rather sophisticated in her elegant attire. A beautiful young lady was standing behind her. It was none other than Courtney.
