Ex-Husband’s Love Dilemma

Chapter 27 Only then did Orlando respond and reply in a hoarse voice, "Yes." He sat up straight and looked at Cassandra as he asked softly, "Sorry, I suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in my heart and didn't stop the car in time. Did I scare you?" With a complicated expression, Cassandra looked at him and wondered, 'Did he really hit the car because he couldn't stop the car in time? Not because of something else?' Soon, Cassandra stopped probing further. He didn't love her, so it couldn't be that he was jealous.

She responded calmly, "I'm fine. What's wrong with your heart?" "Nothing. Probably because I've been working intensely without taking a break. I'll be fine after a while," assured Orlando.

He looked slightly pale.

Cassandra said, "Then go in and have a rest." "Can you helpup?" he requested in a low voice, looking at her with expectation.

His gaze was so gentle that she could not say a word.

Cassandra was stunned. Before she could say anything, Michael cover. "Mr. Quinn, do you need help? Cassie isn't as strong as me. Lethelp you." Their unfathomable, deep eyes met. Neither of the two men intended to give in.

If one'could kill with their gaze, a war would've already begun at the moment.

Orlando didn't move as he withdrew his gaze and said indifferently, "Mr. Collins, thank you very much. But I'm not used to having any contact with strangers, so let my wife do it." Staring at Cassandra with his blue eyes, Orlando said, "Cassie, helpup. Don't trouble Mr. Collins. What do you think?" Cassandra stared at Orlando before her. For a moment, she felt Orlando was somewhat different. She had never seen him like this before.

He was quite pretentious.

1/5 10:28 Tue, 23 Apr MG Chapter 27 Seeing that she didn't say anything, Orlando added, “Cassie, it must be tiring for Mr. Collins to drive you back. It won't be nice if you keep troubling him, right? Besides, we're a couple. I should thank Mr. Collins for taking care of you. How could I trouble him?" "Okay, lethelp you." Cassandra pursed her lips and replied lightly.

Then she looked at Michael and said softly, “Michael, you can go back first.” "Okay, I'll go now. Callif you need anything. We'll talk about it tomorrow at the company," replied Michael.

"Well, drive safely," said Cassandra.

"Take care, Mr. Collins," said Orlando.

Michael nodded before he got in the car and left.

After watching Michael leave, Cassandra reached out to help Orlando out of the car. Although she was not short among the ladies, she looked particularly petite in front of him.

He put his hand on her shoulder as if he was holding her in his arms.

They remained silent and walked into the house.

Graham, who had been taking care of them all the time, exclaimed when he saw this.. "What's wrong?" Cassandra replied gently, "Graham, please call a doctor. Orlando said his heart doesn't feel well, which may be caused by fatigue." "Okay, I'll make the call right away," replied Graham.

"Graham, no need. I'm fine and just a little tired. I'll be fine after resting." Orlando stopped Graham from calling the doctor.

Cassandra helped him sit on the couch and insisted, "Orlando, you're feeling discomfort in your heart. It's not a trivial matter. Just call a doctor to check on you so that I can stop worrying, okay?" "I'm truly fine. I just need to rest for a bit. Could you take care of me? I don't want others to cclose to me. His voice was low and gentle, and he fixed his eyes on her.

Orlando's action had left Cassandra confused.

10:28 Tue, 23 Apr 14MG Chapter 27 She didn't know if she should feel happy or uneasy.

She was happy because he didn't regard her as someone else, but she felt uneasy because she was worried that she would fall for him again.

In the end, Cassandra didn't call the doctor and accompanied him upstairs to his bedroom.

Then she made soatmeal and watched him finish it.

She had to admit that he always looked outstanding and handsome. Even his gesture. when he was having the oatmeal looked graceful.

Back then, Cassandra was also attracted by his looks at first sight. Thinking of the past, she could not help but smile.

She suddenly grew curious and looked at Orlando. "Do you remember the first twe met?" "Yes. Your grandpa took you to the Quinn manor and said he would marry you to me," replied Orlando.

Orlando's face was slightly pale probably because he was unwell, but he still looked charming. Following his deep voice, the scene of that day also cto mind.

Before that, he had already known about the marriage of convenience with the Jackson family, and it was something that he could not refuse.

He was resentful, of course.

However, after seeing her, he felt that it seemed possible to live with her.

Orlando didn't know it wasn't the first tthey had met.

Cassandra had already met him before she left the Jackson residence and went to the countryside. It was the encounter that led to such an unforgettable event in her life.

He remembered nothing about that. Looking down, she smiled bitterly. She was clearly aware that he only had Rebecca on his mind from beginning to end, so why would he have his eyes on someone else? She was certainly a good example.

After falling in love with him, she could no longer love someone else.

Chapter 27 Cassandra gathered her thoughts before she asked, "Orlando, have you ever regretted this marriage?" "Why did you ask that?" He frowned.

"If it weren't for our marriage, you would've married Ms. Spencer by now, right?" She kept her head down.

Furrowing his brows, Orlando looked somewhat annoyed. “There're many things that we can't predict. Everything is bound to happen." Cassandra said, "If you had the choice, would you still marry me?" "What about you? Would you?" he questioned.

"Me?" asked Cassandra.

"Would you?" he repeated..

Cassandra smiled faintly. If she had the right to make every decision, she would have two choices. One was! tto! not to miss the chance when she first met him, and the other was that she would rather not get married if she had known the marriage would turn out like this She wouldn't tell Orlando her thoughts, though. She would never tell Orlando how much she loved him.

She merely said indifferently, "Maybe yes, or maybe no.

Orlando frowned, his eyes reflecting an inexplicable dissatisfaction. "Maybe? What do you mean? Just give an exact answer." "What about you?” she asked rhetorically. She was the one who started this topic.

"I've never thought about it, and I know there'll never be such a possibility. So for o for me, everythingm that's happening now is fated. Since it's already happened, is there a need for us to look into other possibilities?" he replied. "Yeah, since it's already happened, we'd better not think about it anymore,' she thought.

After waiting for Orlando to finish the oatmeal and rest for while, Cassandra andra ally went to turn on the water tap. "Take a shower. You need to see a doctor if you still feel unwell, okay?" "All right." He was obedient and cooperative.

Tue, 23 Apr Chapter 27 However, when Cassandra was about to go out of the bathroom, he grabbed her hand and said in a low voice, "Where are you going?" Take a shower first. I'll go get changed," replied Cassandra.

Actually, she was slightly tired and worried about the baby. She wanted to call her friend to have sideas about her situation.

Orlando asked, "Won't you help me?" Cassandra was dumbfounded.
