Because if Kylin were to do so, everyone would think that he was abusing his power. Then, everyone would conclude that Walden was innocent, and Yesseca had done what she'd been accused of.
And Yesseca would never be able to get rid of her bad reputation.
Fortunately, Kylin had been calm and gentle in handling the matter. He had not taken any violent action. In the end, Walden had been taken away by the police, and he'd cleared up any doubt that might have remained, proving her innocence.
Cassie was quick-witted. She realized that Kylin must have done something to have the police take Walden away without asking anything.
It was her who'd called the police. However, the usual procedure would have been to take Yesseca away too, given that she was also involved in this case. She knew that Kylin must have done something beforehand.
Walden would be punished for his wrongdoings for sure.
Although Kylin looked young, he was thoughtful and thorough.
Smiling, she said to Yesseca, "Since you have had such good fortune in meeting this great young man, why don't you share some of it with me by treating me to a meal?"
Yesseca didn't say anything.
Looking at Yesseca, who was in a trance, Cassie patted her on the shoulder, saying, "What's wrong? Why are you still out of it?"
Yesseca immediately came to her senses.
The first thing she did was to withdraw her hand from Kylin's.
God, what was she doing? How could she wait so long to remove her hand from his?
Cassie saw what she did.
She said to Yesseca meaningfully, "Yesseca, why remove your hand? It's normal for couples to hold hands. They say, the tighter the grip, the longer a couple stays together."
Yesseca was rendered speechless.
She blushed and said, "Cassie, come on. We're not a couple."
Kyi in smiled and said, "Yesseca, you won't blame me for that, will you? The situation called for it."
Yesseca was speechless by the question.
Indeed, how could she blame Kyi in when he did it to help her?
Cassie looked at Kylin and then at Yesseca. She sighed heavily and said, "I have never seen a girl who is more of a fool than you."
Yesseca was confused.
Cassie pointed at Kylin from head to toe, explaining, "Look at this young man. He is so promising and rich. You would regret it if you let him go."
She tried to intimidate Yesseca. "If you don't want him, I'll introduce this young man to my daughter. Only you would be this silly to make a man wait. Hurry up and be his girlfriend. I can be your witness."
Yesseca fell silent.
She was so embarrassed that she wanted the ground to swallow her whole.
"Cassie!" Yesseca cried.
Kylin said, "Ma'am, Yesseca is shy. Don't make fun of her."
Cassie looked at Yesseca and said, "Well, you two get along. I'll be off."
With that, she returned to her station, where she was surrounded by a few staff members almost immediately.
They knew that she was close to Yesseca. After seeing how long Yesseca had been standing with
Kylin, they came to ask about the situation.
"Cassie, who is that man? What were you chatting about just now?"
"Is he really Yesseca's boyfriend? It turns out that Yesseca isn't a mistress. She has gotten herself such a handsome and young boyfriend. It's unexpected."
"A hundred million. How generous of him. Yesseca sure is lucky."
They were full of envy and jealousy.
Cassie rolled her eyes at them. "Look at yourself. Here you are envying Yesseca when you see her with a rich boyfriend. Don't you remember what you said about her just now?"
