Cassie's face instantly turned red. Seeing the slightly dangerous expression on Javen's face, she let out a languid and casual grunt. Javen's ability was too strong. Cassie didn't dare lie and could only reply truthfully. 'I'm just afraid that you'll think that I'm up to no good... If you knew who I am, would you still let me stay in the Smith Group?' Javen replied without hesitation, 'Yes.' 'Very well. I have measured the stature of a gentleman with my own pettiness.' Javen's expression didn't improve. 'Then what will you do after your identity is exposed?' Javen felt a little uneasy in his heart. He was afraid that Cassie would return to the company after exposing her identity as the president of the company. As if seeing through his worry, Cassie could not help but burst into laughter. 'Alright, don't worry. I won't go back to the Blue Group.' The lingering gloom between Javen's brows finally dissipated a little. Cassie looked at Javen's face and teased hi
Cassie was confused. 'See me?' The housekeeper nodded and spoke incoherently, 'There are about a dozen people here. They all look like bodyguards, but the clothes they are wearing are all high-quality materials. They should not be ordinary people.' Cassie suddenly had a bold idea in her mind. 'Miss Garsia, you'd better go and have a look.' Afraid that she would cause unnecessary trouble for the Smith family, Cassie nodded and walked out. A group of people stood outside. When the leader of the group saw Cassie coming out, a smile appeared on his face. 'You must be Miss Cassie. Mr. James has made an appointment with you to send me to invite you to a place.' Cassie remembered that she had promised him that she would go to the James family in a few days. These days, she had been busy dealing with various affairs, which had been delayed for a month. Cassie chuckled and said, 'You should be the housekeeper. I'm really sorry. I have something else to do, so I may not h
Cassie looked at the smug smile on Barnett's face with a hint of regret. She was pretending. The housekeeper had a headache. 'Young Master, don't make things difficult for me at this time. Please help me persuade Miss Garsia. This is the old master's order. If I can't finish it, it will be really difficult for me to report back.' Despite his impatience, Barnett nodded and said, 'Understood.' Cassie looked as if she was enjoying a good show. 'What's wrong? What are you going to say to persuade me?' 'Go back with me.' Cassie tsked. 'What, is this your attitude of begging for help?' 'Cassie, I'm not begging you!' Barnett felt as if he was driven insane by this woman. How could he have met such a eloquent woman? 'Okay, I won't tease you anymore. Why are you asking me to go in such a hurry?' Cassie stopped smiling and asked. Barnett's forehead throbbed painfully. He pressed between his eyebrows and said, 'Grandpa wants to see you.' 'Just because of that?'
The person who came was a boy about the same age as Barnett. He was tall and thin, and his skin was as white as jade. However, his eyes were clear and tender. His hair color was light, and it was a gentle maroon color. The corner of his mouth had a faint smile, which made people want to get close to him. Cassie looked at his face and his identity automatically appeared in her mind. If she guessed correctly, this should be one of Barnett's best friends, Ziad Powell. The Powell Family was involved in politics and had a significant influence in the Caliva city. However, Ziad didn't seem to be so strict and instead had a trace of lively youthfulness. Ziad saw Barnett plant flowers in the flowerbed and couldn't help but tease him, 'Do you like these flowers as well?' Barnett stood up and felt a throbbing pain in his buttocks. He held back his discomfort and said in a slightly angry voice, 'Cassie, why did you do this to me?' He originally wanted to say “kick”, but with
“Let you go? Cassie, you're my granddaughter. How could I let you go?” Cassie did not know if Mr. Old James loved her. She only felt that he was a little extreme, and he was not a kind person. 'I don't need the protection of the James family. I can do it myself.' Mr. Old James sneered. 'If you don't need the protection of the James family, then who do you need? The Smith Family? I heard from the housekeeper that you were engaged to that man from the Smith Group. How is he worthy of you?' Cassie previous unhappiness could be seen from this. When she heard these words, her face fell in an instant. In the name of showing concern for her, Mr. Old James tried to restrain her. It was obvious that he was abusing his power. 'Who I'm engaged to is my own business. It's the 21st century now. Do you still have to arrange a marriage?' Cassie became stronger with each sentence, so everyone present was shocked when they heard her. All these years, apart from Barnett, only Cas
On the first day that Cassie stayed here, Mr. Old James asked Barnett to take her to the most prosperous Commercial Mansion in the area to buy some clothes and jewelry. Although Barnett was reluctant, Mr. Old James suggested that if he was willing to bring Cassie along with him, he would increase his pocket money. He agreed reluctantly. Mr. Old James smiled and took out a card from his pocket. He stuffed it into Cassie's hand and said, 'Since we are all children of the James family, we should treat each other equally. The pocket money is the same. You can spend it however you want. After you spend it, you can come to me for it.' Gold words, together with the ink-black card, also had a card like this. Even those with high status couldn't easily get it. Although Mr. Old James was not a kind person, he showed no hesitation when giving money. Cassie had originally wanted to refuse. However, upon recalling Mr. Old James's manner of doing things, she put it away. Extorting
'Miss Clark's life is hard.' Cassie teasing made Quaile's face darken in an instant. However, Quaile could not do anything about it in the presence of Barnett. She was afraid that the young master from the Caliva city would make more trouble, so she really did not know what to do. 'Miss Garsia, if there is nothing else, can I... can I leave now?' Cassie felt that it was boring to continue to tease her, so she nodded and motioned for her to leave. Seeing that Cassie was not angry, Barnett decided not to make things difficult for her anymore. 'Alright, let's go. Next time you see my sister, remember to detour around her.' Quaile almost gnashed her teeth into pieces, but now was not the time to flare up. She nodded with a smile and turned to leave. Seeing Quaile leave, Cassie couldn't help laughing. 'Now you're so happy? She has spent all her money. You really have no sympathy.' Seeing that Cassie was laughing so happily, Barnett couldn't help but rebuke her.
Wheatly Roberts was stunned. If she had finished speaking, then what should she say? 'There is no need. If you like Barnett James, go after him yourself. Don't mess with me, or I will beat you up.' Cassie Garsia smiled at her and turned to Barnett James, 'Let's go. Aren't we going to a wine tasting party?' Barnett James nodded and left with Cassie Garsia naturally, leaving behind Wheatly Roberts, whose face was flushed with anger in the wind. The wine tasting party was held in the back garden of a mysterious rich man's villa in the Caliva city and the guests were all upper-class people. Barnett James was well-known in the Caliva city, and it was the first time that he took a woman to attend party. More importantly, this woman was beautiful, and similar to Barnett James. Someone who knew some information pointed at Cassie Garsia and whispered, 'I know this woman. She is the granddaughter of the James family, but she grew up in a small town and was no debutant.'
