Miss Garsia, the Cat Is Out of the Bag

This matter had passed for a long time, and Mr. Old James had always ignored it. At that time, he had thought of a way to put Javen’s uncle in prison, and then he had blocked the news of this matter because of the family’s reputation.

That was why the younger generation didn’t know about it.

Now bringing it up again, Mr. Old James felt sad.

George did not say anything more because Mr. Old James was in pain. He left after comforting him.

In the next few days, every time he met Cassie, Mr. Old James would tell her how good George was.

Cassie refused to talk more about it with him. Ultimately, she decided to stay in the hospital to care for Barnett James.

She lay on the hospital bed, eating potato chips and playing games.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

On the other hand, Barnett was stunned, “Cassie, can you consider my feelings?”

Cassie was playing games with headphones, so she didn’t hear anything.

Furious, Barnett took off Cassie’s earphones and said, “Cassie, can you show me some respect?”

Cassie finally heard the complaint from Barnett. However, she still focused on the cell phone as she asked casually, “How am I disrespecting you? Didn’t I come here to take care of you?”

“And then you took my bed. What about me?” Barnett asked through gritted teeth.

Cassie glanced at Barnett while taking down Penta Kill. She saw him wearing a hospital gown and holding an IV drip in his hand, looking very resentful.

Cassie looked at herself. Lying on the bed that belonged to Barnett, she felt at ease…

“Sorry, I used to play games in bed.”

Cassie smiled awkwardly and jumped off the bed.

Barnett muttered like a little bitch, “I just went to the bathroom, and you’re already lying in my bed. Who’s going to take care of who…”

Cassie felt a headache coming on. “All right, I do nothing but lie in your bed. Why are you so stingy?”

Barnett cracked a smile and said, “Interesting.”

A man in white came in when they were bickering.

Looking at the fake smile on George’s face, Cassie thought that she had to face reality sooner or later.

“Cassie, you’re here too?”

George even changed the way he addressed her. A few days ago, he called her Miss Garsia carefully, but today he called her Cassie.

Cassie greeted him with a fake smile. “Can’t I be here?”

Being questioned, George was a little surprised, but he calmly replied, “Of course not. We’re fated to meet.”

“Is that so? I think it’s bad luck. I was joking.”

“Of course not,” she thought.

Barnett was laughing at first, but when he heard what Cassie said, he felt slightly embarrassed.

“Even if you don’t like him, don’t say it so far!” He thought.

On the other hand, George did not seem to care. He looked at Barnett with concern and asked, “Are you feeling better? I heard you were injured, so I wanted to come back and look at you. But I have been too busy.”

Seeing that George was so concerned about him, Barnett felt rather friendly as he replied, “I’m alright now. It’s all thanks to Cassie.”

The two families had been friends for generations. George and Barnett have been friends since they were a child.

Cassie sneered and said, “If I had known that you two were in cahoots, I should have added another herb to hurt you.”

She thought that Barnett was on her side and didn’t expect they had been friends since childhood.

Both of them could see that Cassie was on high alert. Barnett immediately chose his side.

He glanced at Cassie and then at George with a malicious smile. “Grandpa wants you two to be together. I agree!”

As soon as he said it, he felt the two look at him simultaneously.

George was surprised, and Cassie was… angry.

“Barnett James, you are still in my hands. If you keep talking nonsense, I will poison you to death!”

Cassie’s threat worked. Barnett shrank his neck and said cautiously, “I’m doing this for your good. George is extremely wealthy. The key is that he is a good friend I grew up with. I can tell that he is a good man…”

Cassie raised the fruit knife in her hand with a smile.

Barnett shut his mouth as soon as he saw the sharp blade.

“Alright, if Cassie doesn’t like me, I’ll leave.” George stood up and was about to leave, looking a little sad.

Cassie smiled faintly, “Take care.”

George had indeed left. Barnett stared at George, who looked sad, “This is the first time I’ve seen George being so sad. He would destroy his family business if one bullied him in the past.”

Cassie pretended to be surprised and said, “Yo, George is a gangster.”

Barnett rolled his eyes and said, “Actually, I don’t think it’s a good thing for you to be with Javen.”

“What do you mean?”

Barnett heaved a sigh and said, “As you know, Grandpa doesn’t like Javen. You two will suffer a lot if you want to be with him. Naturally, you won’t be the one who suffers.”

Cassie’s heart skipped a beat. She knew that too.

“Why else do you think the Smith Group went wrong? Cassie, you’re brilliant. You should know better than I do.”

After listening to his analysis, Cassie understood most of it.

However, she couldn’t figure out how Javen offended Mr. Old James to the point where he didn’t like him from the bottom of his heart.

“If you are looking out for Javen, then listen to grandpa. After all… Javen would suffer quite a lot when being targeted.”

Although Barnett didn’t like Javen and thought he was eccentric, he knew Javen cared for Cassie a lot. Barnett wouldn’t break up their marriage.

“What, Javen gave you benefits? Why are you so considerate towards him?” Cassie raised her eyebrows, feeling a bit shocked.

Barnett’s lips twitched as he asked, “Can’t you think of something better?”

Cassie tilted her head and asked doubtfully, “So you like him?”

Forget it… forget about it.

Barnett stared at Cassie and was at a loss for words.

However, after listening to Barnett’s words, Cassie wanted to go back to San Francisco now.

She said goodbye to Barnett and went to the airport alone. As soon as she booked the ticket and waited at the boarding gate, the James family found her accurately.

The butler stood in the front row and wiped away his cold sweat. “Miss Cassie, don’t run around. Come back with me.”

Cassie looked at the butler coldly. “I can’t go anywhere but only stay in Caliva city now, right?”

The butler didn’t know how to answer and could only explain cautiously, “On the surface, it’s true, but it’s not…”

Cassie stood up unhappily, “So, are you going to get me back?”
