Chapter 77
Cassandra’s cold attitude made Benjamin and the others uncomfortable. He frowned and said, “Cassie, come home with me. It was my fault. Please give me a chance, and I will make it up to you.”
Cassandra seemed to have heard a joke and could not help laughing.
She laughed so hard that her stomach ached. “What did you say? Make it up to me? Don’t you think it’s too late?”
Benjamin’s face darkened at once. He did not expect her to choose to do it the hard
way.
However, he remembered his main task today was to take Cassandra home, so he could not let her affect his emotions.
It was hard for them to enter, so they could not let their efforts be in vain.
They followed Hugo and said a lot of nice words to the security guards before they could come in. Unexpectedly, he came to her humbly, but she still pushed her luck.
Miranda could not stand Cassandra’s arrogance.
“Cassandra, come back with us. Maybe we can give you what you want. What future can you have here with an old man?”
She did not expect her daughter to degrade herself and live with an old man. If she had not followed Benjamin to the place today, maybe she would not have found where Cassandra lived.
Cassandra looked at Miranda with hatred in her eyes. “Do you think I need your pity? What do you think of the Yates family? The savior? Do you think the Yates family, who used to have tens of billions in assets, is still the same as before? Why are you still so full of yourself?”
Cassandra could not understand them. ‘Isn’t it important to know one’s limitations? Why doesn’t Miranda? What gives her the right to look down on others and be so arrogant?‘
Miranda looked a little gloomy, not knowing whether she was ashamed or angry. “Stop making sarcastic remarks and come home with us. It is such a hot day. Do you know how long we have been standing here to wait for you?”

Chapter 77
Miranda scolded inwardly, ‘She didn’t even show any concern when she saw us! How dare she still mock us cynically? She is not as sensible as Lisa!‘
“Mrs. Yates, I didn’t ask you to wait here. On the contrary, I can have the doorkeeper at the door escort you out,” Cassandra said indifferently.
Miranda was about to scold her, but Benjamin stopped her.
They came on a mission, and it must not be ruined by anything else.
Lucas was going to hold a welcome party for Cassandra. It would involve everyone from the upper class but the Yates family.
In the Yates family’s current situation, they could not afford to lose Lucas as a safe haven. He still had several pieces of land worthy of development. If he could give the projects to the Yates family, they would soar to new heights.
However, Sylvia had said that working with the Yates family was to go against her. The Qualls family and the mayor were behind her, so no one dared to offend her.
Therefore, it was the Yates family’s only chance to turn things around.
Cassandra was now Benjamin’s daughter. Benjamin wanted to use that to make Cassandra work for the Yates family and get those lands for them to develop.
“Cassie, don’t listen to your mother’s nonsense. We have realized that it was our fault for ignoring your feelings. It won’t happen again! Your mother and I will treat you well in the future, and so will your brothers,” Benjamin said affectionately.
His attitude was so sincere that Cassandra almost thought they had really recognized their mistakes.
However, a leopard could not change its spots.
It was impossible that they would recognize their mistake.
“What’s your purpose?” Cassandra did not want to be involved with them. It was annoying that they blocked her outside the door when she was about to arrive home.
Benjamin smiled and said lovingly, “We have no agenda. We just want you to come home with us. You have been outside long enough. Enough sulking. It’s time for you to come back!”
He had come to pick her up in person. If she did not show them some respect, it would be out of line.

Chapter 77
“Wouldn’t I know what you have planned? Mr. Yates, there is no need to act like loving parents in front of me. Do you think you and Mrs. Yates have done a good act?”
Cassandra mercilessly exposed him.
Leonardo frowned, and his face darkened.
He wondered why Cassandra could be so indifferent to them as if she were a different person. She used to be happy for a long time when they said a good word to her.
He could not understand the situation at the moment.
They had coaxed and said a lot of sweet words, yet she did not listen to a single word they said. Instead, she was being sarcastic and mocking them.
“Enough, Cassandra! Do you know who you’re talking to? Be respectful.” Leonardo tried to use his demeanor as a big brother to teach Cassandra a lesson.
“Then, what’s your attitude? How dare you talk to me like that?”
“Cassandra, if you’re still mad at me, then I won’t show up. Mom and Dad really want to take you home. You don’t need to be harsh and hurt them so much,” Yulissa said pitifully, as if she was wronged, as she defended her parents and Leonardo.
Cassandra really found Yulissa to be utterly irritating.
Yulissa always said she would not show up, yet she often showed up in front of Cassandra.
“Ah!”
Cassandra kicked Yulissa in the chest and sent her flying ten feet away and falling flat on her face.
“Ouch! It hurts!” Yulissa covered her chest and wailed.
Miranda, distressed, hurriedly helped her up and said, “Oh my! Lisa! Are you all right? Where did you get hurt?”
Yulissa cried, “Mom, my chest hurts so much…”
‘Damn you, Cassandra! How dare you kick me? I’ll never let you come back to the Yates family!‘ Yulissa cursed inwardly.
Seeing that, Leonardo had forgotten their purpose and scolded, “Cassandra, you’ve
