The Returned Heiress Who Had It All (Cassia) novel Chapter 480

Chapter 480 Differences Between the Two

Kaleb froze. He opened his mouth. “I-”

“I don’t think you like her as much as you say you do,” Draven said flatly. His face was cold, his eyes fixed on Kaleb.

Kaleb opened his mouth again.

After a few seconds, anger flashed across his face. He glared at Draven. “Who are you to say that? I may not be as rich as you, but my feelings for her are real!”

Draven gave a short, cool laugh.

“Oh? Really?”

One hand slipped into his suit pocket. The other rested around Cassia’s waist. His tone stayed calm.

“Fine. If you like her that much, answer a few questions for me.”

Before Kaleb could react, the first question hit him.

“What’s her favorite food?”

“She-”

Kaleb opened his mouth, but no words came out.

“What shoe size does she wear?” Draven asked again, his other hand moving behind his back.

No answer.

“What games does she like to play?”

Kaleb remained mute.

“What’s her favorite color?”

Still no answer.

Kaleb couldn’t answer a single one. Because he truly didn’t know.

And these were not things you could learn by looking someone up.

Draven leaned against the car door and looked at him with quiet mockery.

“Nothing to say?”

Kaleb felt the strange looks from the people around him.

Strangely, he didn’t want to give up.

“So what?” he shot back. “Do you know?”

The sunset fell softly over Draven’s tall frame, wrapping him in warm gold. He looked godlike.

Inside the car, Cassia kept her eyes on Draven. Kaleb fell silent. Draven’s lips move.

He said, “She likes black, and red suits her too. She usually plays match–three puzzle games, Asymmetrical V, and racing games. She wears size 7.5 for her shoes. She likes many foods–crab, fish, and ribs. She doesn’t like celery or bitter gourd.”

He said it all in one breath. When he finished, there was a hint of smugness in his eyes.

Kaleb’s face burned. He wished the ground would open up and swallow him.

Cassia tilted her head slightly, still watching Draven’s lips.

“Wow. He flaunts their affection again; I won’t need dinner tomorrow,” Seven muttered. “Mr. Grey totally cheated. He’s clung on with Ms. Wood all day. Of course he knows everything!”

As soon as Seven said that, Sterling spoke beside him.

“Then do you know what Cassia likes? Her shoe size? Her favorite color?”

“Hmm…” Seven froze.

Sterling puckered his lips. “We’re together all the time. By your logic, you should know everything, right?”

That question shut him up.

Seven laughed awkwardly. “Well, I may not know what Ms. Wood likes to eat or her shoe size, but I do know what you like! You love seafood, especially crab. You like trading stocks, and you love watching PAW Patrol. Your favorite colors are blue and white. And your shoes are-”

Sterling quickly shoved a lollipop into Seven’s mouth.

That lollipop? Seven had bought it earlier when he picked Sterling up from school.

Outside the car, Kaleb lowered his head. He said nothing.

He wanted to run.

Draven’s words had stripped him bare.

He had just kept saying, again and again, that he liked her.

But he couldn’t answer even the simplest questions about Cassia.

Was that really liking someone? Even he found himself embarrassing.

But so many people were watching. If he ran now, it would only be more embarrassing

Suddenly, Kaleb looked up and met Draven’s eyes again.

“What you know,” he said stubbornly, “I can learn too–if she gives me a chance. I’ll know even more than you!”

Yes. That was it. He just hadn’t spent enough time with Cassia if she gave him one chance, how could he not know these things?

Draven shrugged. “Alright. Then let’s try something else.”

His dark eyes swept over the crowd.

Then they locked back onto Kaleb–sharp and cold.

“Just now, when they were saying those awful things about Cassia, why didn’t you step in? Why did you let her stand there alone?”

“I… ”

Kaleb froze and had nothing to say.

They weren’t insulting him, so he hadn’t taken it seriously.

“What people say isn’t something I have the right to control,” Kaleb said, thinking he had found a solid excuse.

“Oh? So you just let them trash–talk Cassia like that?” Draven replied.

The moment those words landed, the people around them suddenly understood. They started comparing how the two men had acted earlier.

And the difference was obvious.

A big difference. When the crowd was insulting the girl, Kaleb–the one who had just proposed–did nothing. He didn’t defend her. He didn’t protect her. He spoke big, emotional words but showed nothing through actions.

But the other man was completely different. The moment people said one or two bad things about her, he stepped out of the car right away. He walked to her side. He helped her. He protected her.
