Miss Garsia, the Cat Is Out of the Bag

Cassie found an empty seat and George sat down as well.

“Why are you sitting at the same table with me?” Cassie moved her body to an empty place.

“There are no empty seats. Make do with it.”

George did not hesitate. He opened the bottle of wine and started drinking.

Cassie pointed to the empty tables not far away and said with a smile, “Mr. Macadam, is there something wrong with your eyes?”

“You’re right. My eyesight is very poor you see, I didn’t wear my glasses today.”

George used to wear glasses all the time and looked very serious. Now that he had taken off his glasses, a few strands of hair floated in front of his forehead. Now he looked really… charming and wild.

“Tell me, what are you up to?”

Cassie didn’t want to beat around the bush.

“Mr. Old James wishes for you to be engaged to me,” George said.

“Engaged? George, you know that I can’t be engaged to you.”

Cassie almost choked on the wine.

“Oh? That’s hard to say.” George gave her a mysterious smile.

Cassie was suspicious. “What? What is Mr. Old James doing behind the scenes?”

“This isn’t something that I can determine, but he has gone through a lot of trouble to get you home.” George cunningly smiled.

“Then why did you tell me this? Aren’t you worried that I will prepare in advance?”

Cassie stared at George’s face, her suspicion lingering for a long time.

George crossed his legs and poured himself another glass of wine.

“Because you can’t change anything.”

Cassie raised her glass and toasted George. “I have to say that you are quite thick-skinned.”

“Even if I want to be with you, I will make you promise to be with me with my ability. Even if I tell you in advance, you will go back with me and get engaged to me sooner or later.”

George returned the toast to Cassie with an arrogant smile.

Cassie looked at George before her. He was no longer the man she knew. At any rate… he was somewhat crazy.

She stood up. Since she couldn’t drink the wine anymore, she might as well leave early.

“I’m done, time to go.”

Cassie had only taken a few steps when George suddenly grabbed her wrist.

“Don’t leave so fast. Don’t you wonder what’s going on with Javen?”

Even though the name Javen could still be mentioned normally, it was still a sore spot that would hurt Cassie whenever it was touched.

Cassie paused abruptly and looked at George’s face with anger.

“Why did you mention him?”

“Don’t you have any ideas about your boyfriend staying with someone else? Do you know why Javen’s attitude suddenly changed?”

Cassie was slightly stunned. “Why?”

“Because he can’t forget his ex-girlfriend, especially the first love, don’t you know the first love have enough weight on a man’s heart?”

George just laughed sarcastically.

Cassie even saw a hint of heartache.

It disappeared in his laugh in a flash, with pity.

Could it be that her previous idea was just wishful thinking? Everyone was watching Javen’s change of heart, but she was the only one who persisted in maintaining the same attitude.

“After four years, Javen will still be tempted. If you don’t believe me, you can wait for Javen to dump you one day and be with Ginger.”

George chuckled and let go of his hand.

Cassie’s heart ached. She forced herself not to fall and turned to leave.

“Ah, right. I forgot to tell you something.” George leaned over to Cassie’s ear and whispered, “Actually, I really like you.”

Cassie stepped directly on his foot. George gritted his teeth in pain and did not scream.

“Cassie…” He forced a smile. “Although you don’t believe me, I do like you. I won’t lose to Javen.”

Cassie couldn’t be bothered by his words. She just wanted to find a quiet place to think.

Out of the bar, she suddenly saw a familiar figure at the door.

“Juwan?”From NôvelDrama.Org.

Why is he here?

Cassie followed him into the bar and avoided George. She followed Juwan to a booth and sat behind him.

She lowered her head to hide. When she looked up again, she was shocked by the familiar person in front of her.

“Why would Juwan and Ginger meet here in the middle of the night?” She thought.

Before she could react, Juwan said, “How have you been recently? Is Javen good to you?”

Ginger raised her chin proudly and said, “Of course. Now he is particularly indifferent to Cassie. His heart is full of me, and he has helped me solve a lot of messes. If it wasn’t for Cassie, I would have announced my relationship with him.”

“Javen snubbed Cassie… and stayed with you?”

Juwan was slightly surprised, but he still smiled with understanding.

“Yes, I feel that every time Javen called Cassie, he always frowned and hung up after saying only a few words. Javen has been holding on without breaking up because Cassie did not take the initiative to mention it. Otherwise, Javen would have been free long ago.”

Cassie was stunned as she listened from behind.

Although Ginger was spoiled, what she said seemed to be true.

Could it be that Javen was waiting for her to break up?

“By the way, Juwan, why did you call me here this time?”

Juwan nodded. “Yes, I’m here to ask if you really like him.”

“Of course, I’ve liked him for eight years.”

“Don’t tell me you will forget about what happened between us last time?” Juwan grinned. His smile was filled with unspeakable bitterness as it instantly disappeared.

A hint of shame and anger flashed across Ginger’s face.

“Juwan, I was just drunk last time and had sex with you. After that, I made it very clear that we have forgotten about it. You don’t have to threaten me with it.”

“I’m not threatening you.”

Ginger stood up and said contemptuously, “I’ve always liked Javen. He’s handsome, talented, and steady. If you have any ideas, give up as soon as possible.”

After that, she ignored the madness in Juwan’s eyes and turned to leave.

Juwan sat without saying a word. After finishing the wine in one gulp, he also left.

Cassie didn’t know how she got back to the hotel. When she got back, Jones was already asleep. When she heard Cassie coming back, she muttered, “Why did you come back so late?”

She lay in bed and stayed awake all night.
