Chapter 60
Orlando did not speak again until he got in the car afterward.
The car drove Rebecca to the place where her song was recorded. When she got out of the car, she asked in a low voice, “Landy, are you angry? Although I think what Cassandra did was wrong, don’t be angry. Just talk to her nicely. After all, she is a girl. I’m afraid that you will hurt her.”
Orlando’s face was icy. He walked into the back seat without even looking at Rebecca and said indifferently,
“Rebecca, you don’t need to worry about it. Go do your thing, okay?”
“Okay, I understand,” said Rebecca.
She could not do anything that made him unhappy.
Watching his car leave, a coldness rose in her eyes, and she uttered silently in her heart, ‘Cassandra, Orlando can
only be mine.‘
Orlando’s face was awful throughout the afternoon. Several project managers and deputy general managers who reported to him were harshly criticized to the extent that they began to doubt themselves.
The entire office echoed with Orlando’s chilling voice.
The deputy general manager who came out of the office looked at Taylor with a gloomy face and asked, “Mr. York, what is wrong with Mr. Quinn?”
“Mr. Quinn is just doing his job. It’s nothing personal. So, don’t speculate on his mind. You won’t be criticized by him if you do your job well,” said Taylor.
The deputy general managers and project managers looked at each other and nodded, then started to examine
themselves.
After sending those people off, Taylor took a silent breath. He did not tell anyone, but he was also very panicked.
At this moment, an internal call came through.

Orlando’s indifferent voice sounded. “Taylor, are you waiting for me to go out and arrange work for you?”

Taylor hung up the phone and immediately walked to his office without daring to take a breath.
Such atmosphere lasted until night after work.
Orlando returned to Dustmeadow Mansion. Cassandra had not yet returned, and Rebecca was having dinner with the sponsors tonight.
The huge mansion was silent. From the moment he entered, he had sensed the desolation and a quietness that made him uncomfortable.
His handsome face was cold as ice, and a touch of indifference emanated from his brows.
Cassandra did not come back until an hour later.
She changed her shoes in the foyer and then walked inside. Seeing that there was only a dim light turned on inside, she said lowly, “Graham, why didn’t you turn on the lights?”
There was no response. She guessed that Graham was probably busy.
She planned to go straight upstairs, but just as she reached the foyer, she heard Orlando’s deep voice from the living groom. “Cassandra, what time is it now? Why do you come back so late?”
She turned her head and paused when she met his deep eyes.
‘He’s been sitting here the whole time?‘ she wondered.
Cassandra said indifferently, “I went to the construction site with Mr. Wright and others, and then we had dinner together. Besides, it’s only a little past seven now. It’s not that late.”
Orlando looked at her expressionlessly, squinted his cold eyes, and raised the corner of his mouth. “Then how late do you think is too late? You took Michael to have dinner with them. Are you trying to make everyone think you’re in a relationship with him?”
Cassandra frowned.
She said, “Orlando, Michael and I are business partners. The company belongs to both of us. Isn’t it normal for him to have dinner with Mr. Wright? As for what he said today, he was just trying to make me be through with you.”

“Be through with me? Why do you want to be through with me?” he questioned indifferently.
Cassandra was amused by his question.
She said, “Hasn’t Rebecca already made everyone think that you are dating? And what would it mean if I swept. in between you? What will the people think of me?”
In truth, she did not want to bring up today’s events and mention anything about Rebecca.
Orlando’s brows furrowed slightly, and his eyes seemed to contain shards of ice. “That’s just your opinion. Rebecca and I didn’t say anything, let alone do anything that would mislead them. Cassandra, not everyone thinks like you.”
“Since you think that’s just my opinion, what makes you think others won’t think the same?” said Cassandra.
“You’re splitting hairs,” he said coldly and decisively.
Cassandra was taken aback. The next second, she said, “Take it however you want to.”
“Cassandra, we are married. You’d better keep your distance from Michael and stop having any contact with him. As for the money he invested in your company, I will pay him and let him leave. Cut him off and stop contacting
him,” Orlando said.
“Orlando, even if we are married, you can’t control my social circle. I have never asked you to keep a distance from anyone, nor did I force you to cut off contact with anyone, Michael and I are just friends,” Cassandra said.
Orlando retorted, “Whether he’s your friend or not, that is not up for you to decide. Michael has ulterior motives toward you. I am a man, and I know how a man thinks. Cassandra, this is the basic morality a wife should have.”
Cassandra was flabbergasted.
‘He mentioned the basic morality of a wife. Did he mean to imply that I’m amoral? What about him?‘ she asked
inwardly.
She stared at Orlando and asked coldly, “If I ask you to distance yourself from Rebecca, can you do that? You told me you wanted to divorce and marry Rebecca, and you even brought her into our house. Orlando, have your considered how I feel? Have you lived up to the moral responsibilities of a husband?”
He looked at her indifferently. Perhaps he was displeased by the mention of Rebecca. His beautiful face was

shrouded in coldness for a long time.
A dispute erupted between the two, and neither of them was willing to give in,
Cassandra did not think she was wrong. Although she was aware of Michael’s feelings for her, she had already made it clear to him, so Michael stopped insisting on her.
Compared with Orlando and Rebecca, she did not think she was being excessive at all.
For her, Michael was not only a partner but also a good friend.
It was Michael’s support that had made her keep going on until now, so how could she cut him out of her life?
From this moment on, both of them gave each other the silent treatment.
Rebecca also noticed this. Although she did not know the reason behind it, it was still good news for her.
The silent treatment lasted three days.
Rebecca’s fanmeeting for her comeback also arrived as scheduled.
Rebecca had approached Orlando the night before and said to him, “Landy, can you do me a favor? Tomorrow is my comeback fanmeeting, and I’d like to invite you to attend withi n’t worry. I won’t take up too much of
your time. It will take you a little over ten minutes, and you can go tend your own business afterward. I’ve been on a hiatus for a year. I’m afraid that it will be even more difficult for me to carry out the subsequent work if I’m not popular.”
Rebecca’s attitude was sincere, and her eyes were full of expectations, hoping that Orlando would agree.
Orlando hesitated for a while and replied, “I need to check my schedule with Taylor.”
“I’ve already asked Mr. Taylor. He said that you don’t have any plans tomorrow morning. So, can you agree to my request, please?” Rebecca pleaded.
Orlando’s face was emotionless, and a deep emotion flashed in his eyes. Ultimately, he nodded.
With the addition of Orlando, the fanmeeting would undoubtedly elevate to a new level.
Numerous fans and reporters gathered at the scene, as Rebecca was very popular a year ago. She had a beautiful

voice, which made her the dream girl for many people.
She took Orlando’s hand and walked to the stage under the lens of cameras and photographers. She thanked her fans and everyone who supported her with a gentle voice. Finally, she looked at the man beside her and said softly, like a melodious oriole, “The person I want to thank the most is the one beside me. Thank you, Landy.”
Orlando was expressionless, showing no smile or response. However, his good looks and noble demeanor made. him appear untouchable.
Such a man could still be pleasing to the eye even if he just stood there and did nothing.
The fans below applauded and cheered.
A reporter suddenly asked, “Ms. Spencer, what is your relationship with Mr. Quinn? Why do you want to thank. him specifically?“–
Another reporter asked, “Are you dating Mr. Quinn, Ms. Spencer?”
A third chimed in, “Someone caught you two living together on camera a year ago. Did you retire to quietly get
married and have children?”
“Are you husband and wife now?”
The question came one after another, which fueled the atmosphere. the scene to a new height.
