Chapter 1471 I’ll Sell It as Long as They Pay Up

Cassandra didn’t expect someone to respond to her ad so quickly, nor did she expect Ned to be the one to answer the potential buyer’s call.Though Ned was handsome to a fault, attractive, and constantly made her heart race, she knew how insecure she would be if she were to marry him. She would always worry about another woman sleeping in her bed; if he were appealing to her, he would be equally appealing to other women. Besides, the whole mess with Stephanie was enough to show how much of a rotten bastard he was. There was no way Cassandra would allow herself to get involved with a man like him.A relationship that constantly interred fear in her wasn’t one that was worth her time; she couldn’t take it.Since she had already decided to cut ties with him, it was best to make it a clean break.So, after a pause, she said, “I’ll sell it as long as they pay up.”“As long as they pay up, huh?” Ned repeated.Cassandra didn’t say anything else. They were almost at the pharmaceutical fac

Chapter 1472 It’s Your Fault for Pissing Me Off

Ever since he had seen her keying in the password for her computer, he guessed that her passwords and pin codes all had to do with “pharmacist” or “pharmacy”. He tried a few variations of the corresponding numbers and finally managed to get in.It looked complicated, but was easy enough to decode once one figured out the pattern.Tonight, he had shown her how intelligent he was by breaking into her apartment.“What do you want?” Cassandra demanded.“To watch a movie with you.”She put her bag down, washed her hands, and snorted. “You really are as calculative as you said.”“Well, you pissed me off this morning. I don’t think this can be considered payback.” Ned then said commandingly, “Come here and watch a movie with me!”“Don’t you think you’re being a little too immature? I have to watch a movie with you just because I did the same with Jeremy?” Cassandra’s blood boiled.Ned narrowed his eyes. “You watched a movie with him?”“Don’t act like you don’t know it!” She was so an

Chapter 1473 Will You Miss Me if I Leave?

Ned pursed his lips tightly. So, she was giving him a taste of his own medicine.The desire burning through his veins slowly cooled down. He got up and grabbed the remote control.“What do you want to watch?” He was plastered to her side.“I don’t want to watch anything.” Cassandra wrapped her arms around her knees, looking like she was trying to protect herself.Ned glanced at her. “You have to pick something.”“The Shawshank Redemption, then.” She knew he wouldn’t leave until he got what he wanted.He narrowed his eyes. Did she think he wouldn’t get what she meant?The Shawshank Redemption didn’t have a female lead, let alone any steamy scenes. She was probably afraid of him losing control if he were to watch anything with the slightest hint of steaminess.He still went ahead with it, though.Ned turned the lights off, and the flashing lights on the TV screen reflected off their faces.At one point, Ned leaned close to Cassandra and said, “Don’t you know movies can be steam

Chapter 1474 Heartless Ingrate

Cassandra checked her phone to see several unread messages and a missed call from Fiona. She had left her phone on the bed earlier, and hadn’t heard it ring with Ned around.Fiona: [Cassandra, don’t forget that it’s mom’s birthday next week. Are you coming home? I ran into Jeremy’s sister-in-law the other day, and she told me he was planning on making a trip back soon. Why don’t you consider coming with him?]Cassandra was thankful for Fiona’s reminder. Otherwise, she would’ve forgotten all about it. She also had to prepare a gift for her mother.Cassandra: [I’ll see how it goes.]As for how she was going to get the gift to her mother… She probably would have it couriered to Lesia. She had studied abroad for years, and was used to not being by her mother’s side when she celebrated her birthday.Madam Addaway wasn’t as money-minded now as she was in her youth, but she still had a soft spot for jewelry. She loved Ashlyn’s designs and sang Ashlyn’s praises several times. Since Cassan

Chapter 1475 There Was a Distinct Difference Between Them

Cassandra had yet to make up her mind about returning to Lesia, but she thought about Ashlyn saying she would miss her mother’s birthday if she were to have the gift couriered. Since Jeremy was inviting her to make the trip together, she agreed.“I’ll book the flight tickets now, then.” Jeremy smiled.“Yeah. Book them for Saturday morning—I know I won’t have to work then,” Cassandra said.“Alright. I’ll ask a subordinate of mine to handle it.” Then, he started making calls as Cassandra stood beside him.A fallen leaf landed on her head. Jeremy removed it while on the phone, startling her. When she saw the leaf on the ground, she looked into his eyes.Though he was still on the phone, that gaze was all it took for him to know she was the one for him.The look in her eyes was innocent, clear, and resolute.Jeremy hung up and wrapped an arm around her waist.To him, this was an exciting moment.However, to Cassandra, there was nothing special about this. In fact, she was subconsc

Chapter 1476 I Bet They’re Going to Return to Lesia Together

Cassandra only saw Sheila as the women approached.“Mrs. Mckenny,” she greeted politely.“My, taking a walk with your boyfriend?” Sheila’s tone was on the bitter side. After all, she had her eyes on Cassandra first. It was all Roger’s fault for being so useless!“Yes. Did you come here to take a stroll as well?”“That’s right. The park’s newly opened, isn’t it? And it’s not too far from my house.” Sheila glanced at Jeremy. He was quite handsome, but he was no match for Ned; this only pleased Sheila more. So what if Ned was rich and handsome? He still failed to win Cassandra’s heart.Sheila walked away.“Who’s that, Mrs. Mckenny?” the others asked.“Oh! That girl used to chase after my son, but he didn’t have any feelings for her. She’s from Lesia, and I didn’t agree with them getting together either. I didn’t expect her to move on so quickly.” Sheila wove a tale to make herself look better.Cassandra and Jeremy had dinner together before he drove her home. He didn’t try to kiss

Chapter 1477 Dad, I Want to Borrow Some Money From You

Damien’s study.“Dad, I want to borrow some money from you,” Ned said seriously.“Oh? What for?” Damien looked at him.“To acquire Bolton Pharmaceutical. I want to expand my company’s industrial operations, and acquiring a factory is the fastest way to do that.”“Haven’t you invested in a few of their projects already?”“Those were just for fun. I’ve looked into Bolton Pharmaceutical’s production lines, and they’re internationally renowned. With the launch of the rhinitis reagent, they’ve recruited more talents, and I can see its potential. I want to acquire 25 percent of the company,” Ned said.“How much do you need?”“Based on my estimation, about five billion dollars. I don’t have enough cash on hand—I still need about 2 billion. I’ve earned about 3 billion while studying and spent some of it setting up my company.”Ned had started investing while doing his doctorate. He had enough foresight to prevent himself from making losses, and he had invested in one of today's most po

Chapter 1478 No Reason to Stay In Genovia

Ashlyn wasn’t at her studio since she spent most of her time at home nowadays. She left the accessory with Xenia, and asked Annie to look for Xenia instead.When Annie got off work that evening, she went to look for Xenia.Xenia told Annie to check the accessory before packing it up.There was a photo on Xenia’s desk, one of a man who was jumping to make a slam dunk.“Is that your boyfriend? He’s pretty handsome,” Annie complimented.Xenia couldn’t help smiling at Annie’s words, but she didn’t answer. She enjoyed having people mistake Jonah for her boyfriend.Annie left after collecting the accessory. Cassandra wasn’t home yet, but she told Annie her pin code and asked her to leave the accessory on the coffee table. That way, she wouldn’t forget to take it before leaving for Lesia the next morning.It was already 11:00 p.m. when Cassandra got home, and she went to bed after taking a shower. The following morning, she met Jeremy at the airport, and they flew back to Lesia togethe

Chapter 1479 Are You Really Going to Treat Your Son Like This?

On Sunday evening, Cassandra reluctantly left home. Fiona and Adeline had given her plenty of things to take with her.On the flight back to Genovia, she didn’t tell Jeremy about her thoughts on settling down in Lesia. She knew once the words were out of her mouth, he would arrange everything for her. By then, it’d be too late for her to change her mind.She was too calm and rational to blurt something like that out.Cassandra gave herself a month to make up her mind. If Bolton Pharmaceutical purchased the ICP-AES instrument within the next month, she would remain in Genovia. If not, she would return to Lesia.After all, her mother was getting older. As the youngest daughter, it was only right for Cassandra to stay by Rosemary’s side and care for her. Besides, she didn’t think Bolton Pharmaceutical would buy the instrument. If they didn’t intend to buy it right from the start, what were the chances of it happening in the future?She had only given herself a month’s time so she cou

Chapter 1480 This Accursed Fate

“Cassandra, did you hear the news? Ned Lawrence is now the president of our company! You should be quite happy about that, right?” Annie asked Cassandra during lunch.Though Cassandra felt uneasy because she didn’t know what Ned was up to, she said, “That’s between the board of directors and has nothing to do with us. We just need to focus on our experiments.”“Aren’t you excited about him becoming the president? You’ll get to see him more frequently than before. He’ll have to come here every now and then. Didn’t he acquire the company for your sake?” Annie smiled teasingly.“Don’t say things like that!” Cassandra chided Annie.She knew her stuff when it came to experiments and research, but knew nothing about investment. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have sold Addaway Corporation.But… What if Ned had really acquired the company for her sake?“Oh, I also heard President Lawrence is going to throw a ball next week to celebrate the acquisition, and I think we’re all going to have to be
