Chapter 181

To stop them from fighting again, Zach quickly drove away.In the car, Oliver kept asking, “Cassia, are you really divorced? Why did you get divorced? Is it because of Cecilia? It has to be her!”I could see that Oliver was furious in the dimly lit car. I should have calmed him down by saying that Zach and I ended on good terms; it was not anyone’s fault. However, I did not want to say anything unnecessary. I held his face and told him, “You could say it’s related to Cecilia, but it also isn’t. Zach doesn’t love me, and I just got tired.”Zach was driving, so he could hear me.Oliver gritted his teeth and glared at Zach from the back. No matter how much he stared, it would not change the fact that Zach did not love me.Hence, I decided to let go.Oliver understood me well, and his clenched fists slowly relaxed.Even if he fought with Zach, it would not change a thing. Besides, he would probably not be able to beat Zach. If he did, nothing would happen either.Oliver leaned

Chapter 182

Oliver was a junior in college, and he did not act like a typical rich kid. He drove an ordinary car to school and even rode a bike sometimes.Our parents, aunts and uncles, and I would give him money each year during his birthday. Somehow, he managed to make that money last all year as his allowance.That was why he still did not have a girlfriend.To me, Oliver would always be a kid. Knowing that I was divorced, he felt uneasy and fell asleep hugging my arm. He almost pulled me off the bed. On my wedding day, he had told Zach that if he did not treat me well, he would beat him up.I ruffled Oliver’s hair and said, “Sometimes, certain promises don’t need to be kept.”After Oliver fell asleep, I covered him with a blanket and went to the balcony for some fresh air.Since Oliver already knew about my divorce, I believed that my parents would find out soon.It was better for them to know. I had not planned to keep it a secret for long, but I had no idea how to bring it up afte

Chapter 183

“Let me fix your bangs.” He pushed me into the chair.I knew that Zach was smart, but he was not good at everything.I stared at my burnt bangs in the mirror and felt hopeless. “You can’t seriously know how to cut hair too, right?”“I’ll just trim the burnt part and see if I can fix it.” He bent over with the scissors near my forehead. I held my breath, as I was terrified that he might accidentally cut off my eyelashes.Being pregnant already made me feel less attractive, but at least, my hair was still thick.He stared at my bangs for a while before he started cutting. With each snip, more hair fell.“Please go easy on me.” I was about to cry.He was so serious about it that he snipped away for a full ten minutes. I started to imagine him secretly training as a hairstylist.Finally, he put down the scissors and nodded. “Done.”I stood in front of the mirror and stared at my new hairstyle. After a few seconds, I felt a wave of anger. I wanted to grab the scissors and stab hi

Chapter 184

Mrs. Zaffino gave me an awkward look. “I’m going to make Mr. Freeman some juice.”However, I kept teasing, “The most famous stylist gave me this haircut. He just came back from abroad. One snip from him costs what most people make in a month.”Mrs. Zaffino was shocked. “Tsk, tsk. I really don’t get his style. You’re lucky you’re pretty. If I got a haircut like this, I wouldn’t go out and let anyone see me.”Then, she leaned in and whispered, “Next time, don’t trust these ‘famous foreign stylists.’ They’re all scams!”I laughed so hard that I almost choked on my juice. I glanced at Zach, who was as calm as ever. He looked a little silly with a band-aid on his forehead.On the way to work, I dropped Oliver off at his college. “Cassia, did you and Zach fight last night? I noticed that he had a cut on his head. Did he cut your hair like that?” he asked.“I wouldn’t fight him. I wouldn’t win anyway.” I pushed Oliver out of the car. “Stop overthinking it and focus on your studies. One

Chapter 185

Cameron looked great, though. I told him that his light blue suit reminded me of a macaroon, and he smiled with crinkled eyes.“Where’s Rachel?”“She’s with Ms. Wilson.”I was surprised. “Cecilia?”“Yeah, Ms. Wilson was being friendly. She said that she felt bad about what happened the last time. Then, she invited Rachel to her place to play.”I could see why Cameron was calm about it. He knew that Zach and Cecilia would be extra careful with Rachel. They were signing the contract today, so everything would be fine.I just smiled in silence.Cameron then pointed at my bangs. “Your hairstyle is… quite unique today.”He was being nice. It was more than just unique. I was going to ask Sophie to bring me to her hairstylist after the signing. I had to try everything possible to fix it. At least, it would look better than to leave it as it was.The signing ceremony was about to start, and the media had set up their cameras. I tried to hide in a corner to avoid being photographed.

Chapter 186

“Rachel…” He had only uttered her name, but my heart dropped.Was Cecilia causing trouble again?That did not make sense. She knew that today was Zach and Cameron’s signing day. She would not do something foolish on such an important day.“What happened to Rachel?”“Cecilia took her to see her mom,” Cameron said through gritted teeth. Just then, Zach rushed over.We exchanged a quick glance, and Zach looked upset.We got into the car, and Zach immediately called Cecilia. “Where are you?”“Put it on speaker,” Cameron said concisely.Zach switched to speaker mode, and Cecilia’s excited voice came through. “Zach, guess where I am right now?”“Where?”“You won’t guess it! Zach, you have no idea how clever I am. I found Rachel’s mom! I know Cameron wants to find a stepmom for Rachel, and she doesn’t want that, so I brought Rachel to meet her mom.”I could not stand to listen anymore and started to sweat.What was wrong with this woman? Did she really think she was being clever?

Chapter 187

We walked out of the house and could still hear the woman crying.Cameron had already taken Rachel away, and the three of us stood in the garden.Cecilia looked down with tears in her eyes. “Zach, I didn’t know Cameron would get so angry. I was just trying to help you—”“Enough.” Zach cut her off. “Let’s talk about this later.”Zach got into the car, but Cecilia stayed outside. What was she waiting for? Did she think Zach would help her into the car?I got in too. Zach leaned out the window and told Cecilia, “You can go back by yourself. We have things to do.”Then, he started the car and drove off.I could see the surprise and fear on her face in the rearview mirror.She really messed things up. If it were not for her, Zach and Cameron would have finished their deal and been celebrating.Zach was anxious and drove fast. I tried to reassure him. “I’ll call Cameron later. He’s still upset right now.”“Okay, thanks,” he replied and bit his lip.I could see that he was frustr

Chapter 188

When someone did not want to talk, I never pushed them to. They would speak when they were ready. If they did not want to share, it meant they were not ready to open up.Cameron finished his tequila, and he seemed fine. I turned to Sophie, and she quickly brought him another glass.When he almost finished his second glass, he finally spoke.“That woman we saw earlier is Rachel’s mom.”“Oh.” I nodded. “Rachel looks a lot like her, especially when it comes to her eyes.”“Her name is Scarlett York. I met her when she had just turned eighteen.” Cameron took a deep breath and leaned back on the couch.He held his drink and looked more relaxed.I was ready to listen since he wanted to talk.“I met her in West City, so I feel a special connection to this place.” He suddenly looked at me. “I think the girls from West City are all cute and precious.”I smiled back. I could hear how much he cared for Rachel’s mother. I wondered why he would not let Rachel meet her. There had to be a rea

Chapter 189

Cameron decided to keep drinking and sharing his feelings.He wanted to let out the pain he had inside.I promised myself that I would not tell anyone what he said, not even Sophie. If there came a point where I had to keep others silent, I would be ready for that too.I turned to Sophie at the bar, and she was trying to listen in. When she saw me glaring, she quickly looked away.“She needed treatment, but by then, Rachel had already been in her belly for over four months. She couldn’t terminate the pregnancy, so she had to go with an induction. Sometimes, she would be aware of what was happening. She cried and begged me not to get rid of the baby. I softened at that moment and didn’t go through with it. She didn’t get any treatment during her pregnancy, and I watched as she lost herself even more.”I could guess the rest of the story without him saying it.After giving birth, Scarlett completely lost her mind and had to go to a hospital for treatment. She did not recognize Ca

Chapter 190

“Answer it and put it on speaker.”Sophie pressed the speaker button while I kept kneading the dough. No wonder Sophie loved baking so much. Kneading the dough really helped to alleviate my stress.Cecilia’s weak voice came through the phone. “Cassia, what did you say to Cameron? Don’t you think you’ve gone too far? It’s fine if you hate me, but why did you mess up Zach and Cameron’s partnership? Do you know how much Zach cares about this project? He’s put all his time into it. Even though you and Zach are divorced—”Cecilia kept rambling, so Sophie leaned in and yelled into the phone, “Are you out of your mind, Cecilia?! Don’t try to shift the blame to Cassia! You know what you did!”“Don’t waste your breath.” I ended the call and left a white fingerprint on the screen.“Cecilia’s ridiculous. She knows what she did, yet she still blames you? Where does she get the nerve?”“We all know she’s shameless.” I was too used to Cecilia’s nonsense to get upset. “Looks like Cameron alread
