Chapter 65
The next morning. Cassandra returned to the Jackson residence.
She took a deep breath at the entrance before going inside the Jackson residence, knowing why the Jackson family did not want her to divorce Orlando last time.
She met Suzanne at the mansion.
The two exchanged glances, each unwilling to acknowledge the other. Cassandra continued to walk inside. As she passed Suzanne, the latter suddenly asked, “Are you really going to divorce him?”
“Yes,” Cassandra replied.
“Why? You had said it was your suggestion, but didn’t he stay married for the sake of Quinn Group afterward? Why did Mr. Quinn suggest your divorce again? Was it your idea?” Suzanne asked.
Suzanne looked at Cassandra with a slight frown.
Cassandra replied. There’s no reason. We have to divorce sooner or later anyway.”
Cassandra’s voice was indifferent. No one knew what she felt.
Suzanne added. “Mom and Dad are probably angry about your actions. Mom is still in a bad mood now. You… better be careful. I’m not doing this for you. I just don’t want Mom to be upset.”
Cassandra looked at Suzanne and thought. Although we are sisters, we have little contact with each other. Our relationship is as distant as strangers. Then she looked away, stopped thinking, and went inside.”
Suzanne was right. Austin and Evelyn were angry.
As soon as Cassandra entered the living room, a coffee cup was thrown at her.
She tilted her head a little to avoid being hit by the coffee cup.
Evelyn pointed at her and shouted, “Cassandra, what are you really trying to do? If you can’t help the Jackson family, please don’t burden your family. Jackson Group is getting worse day by day. Why do you want to cut off the ties with Quinn Group when there’s still a connection with them?”
“Grandpa Peter said that even if I divorce Orlando, the relationship between the Jackson family and the Quinn family will remain,” Cassandra replied.

Evelyn said, “Do you really think Mr. Quinn is your grandpa because you call him ‘Grandpa Peter? Our families are only connected if you and Orlando are still married. We are nothing after your divorce.”
Austin added, “Cassandra, tell Mr. Quinn that you’re not getting a divorce and that you’re just being unreasonable.”
Cassandra replied, “Mom and Dad, I’ve made up my mind. I want a divorce.”
“Cassandra, do you have to make us hate you?” Evelyn yelled as she looked at her indifferently. She even stopped pretending to be indifferent.
Since Cassandra insisted, Evelyn could only call Violet Bunn, Cassandra’s maternal grandmother, who had accompanied Cassandra since childhood. Evelyn then asked Violet to convince Cassandra not to divorce her.
However, Violet doted on Cassandra and only asked her to do what she wanted as long as she was happy.

Evelyn had no choice, so she told Cassandra indifferently, “If you insist on getting a divorce, forget about ever seeing Granny again.”
Evelyn used Violet to threaten Cassandra not to get a divorce. Cassandra’s face was full of disbelief. She had never expected Evelyn to say such a thing.
However, Evelyn did say that.
There was nothing Cassandra could do about it.
Suzanne also came in and said, “Mom, she knows how to take care of herself. Don’t threaten her with Granny. She wants at divorce, let her be
“No, since she’s a member of the Jackson family, she has to do what I say, Suzanne replied.
Evelyn was firm as she added, “Granny is already old. Think about it yourself. Get a divorce if you don’t want to see her one
last time.”
Cassandra had no idea how she managed to leave the Jackson residence. She felt her whole body tremble with anger.
Granny has been with me since childhood, but she’s also Mom’s mother. I don’t understand why they are threatening me with Granny?‘ she pondered.
Evelyn asked Cassandra to think about it and gave her two days to decide.
Orlando was also angry since she returned last night. He treated her like a stranger, even though they lived in the same
house.
Cassandra could not help but want to talk to him a few times, but she held back when she was about to speak. Now that she had reached that point, she had to move on, no matter what.
At night, Cassandra sat on the couch in her bedroom with a solemn expression on her face and thought. Although I keep in touch with Granny after I return to Broburgh, I can’t meet and care for her whenever and wherever I want because we are far away from each other.
She was more determined to leave, whether because of Violet or the child in her belly.
Evelyn was already impatient before the two days were up.
The next day, after Cassandra’s return from the Jackson residence, Suzanne called.
Suzanne told Cassandra, “Mom wants to stop you from divorcing Orlando and intends to teach Rebecca a lesson using your name. This happens because of you. If you hadn’t insisted on the divorce, Mom wouldn’t have done this. I hope you can make it up to Rebecca and don’t cause any more trouble for the Jackson family.”
To teach Rebecca a lesson by using my name?” Cassandra asked.
Cassandra was surprised.
“Yes. Mom has bribed Rebecca’s assistant to cause an accident so that Rebecca will leave Orlando after learning her lesson. If you don’t want it to escalate or take risks, you should deal with the divorce before it happens,” Suzanne said.
Cassandra believed what Suzanne had said.
It was because Suzanne would not benefit from lying to Cassandra.
Cassandra ended the call because she had nothing else to discuss with Suzanne.

Chapter 65
Cassandra fell silent as she held the phone.
She had never thought of hurting Rebecca. Even though she disliked Rebecca, she would not use such despicable methods. Besides, the Jackson family could not get away with it if the matter was thoroughly investigated. The Jackson family would have to pay a price considering Orlando’s affection for Cassandra, so she could not go along with the plan, let alone ignore it.
However, she had to find a way to let Rebecca know without having to involve her and the rest of the Jackson family.
The next morning, after finishing her makeup and changing clothes in the studio, Rebecca prepared to go to the shooting studio for an endorsement advertisement. Just before leaving, her manager, Sophia, came in with a package, saying. “Rebecca, there’s a delivery for you.”
“Delivery?” Rebecca asked, frowning. She did not order anything. Even if she had, there was no way she would use her studio’s address.
She asked Sophia to open it and see what it was.
Sophia opened the package. Inside was a file bag similar to an envelope, from which she found a piece of paper with something written on it.
Sophia looked solemn after reading it and immediately handed it to Rebecca.
Rebecca read the words on the note and said coldly, “Where’s the new assistant?”
Sophia answered, “She was here just now. I’ll go look for her.”
Sophia lefi immediately after saying that.
At the same time, the new assistant received a phone call. Without waiting for her to speak, the caller said harshly, “Rebecca already knows what you’re going to do. If you don’t want to get caught, pack up and leave. Or you’re going to jail.”
The new assistant could not care less now that she was exposed. She packed everything up and left the studio in a hurry.
In the studio, Sophia looked around but did not see anyone. Finally, she checked the surveillance footage and found out that the assistant had left.
The assistant had only been here for two or three days, so they had not recorded her information in the system. Once they checked, they found all the credentials were fake, so they had no leads.
Rebecca clutched the note tightly and said, “It must bé Cassandra. She wants me to leave Landy.”
“If Cassandra sent that new assistant, then who tipped us off? Rebecca, we can’t do anything without evidence. It’s fine if Mr. Quinn believes you, but what if he doesn’t?” Sophia asked.
