Chapter 420
Simon had been put in jail for about ten days. The students of Juset University were on holiday and Cassandra didn’t go back to school again.
Meanwhile, she was waiting for Simon’s trial.
It was said that Simon hired an expensive lawyer to put on a not–guilty defense. She was surprised that someone was willing to take his case.
How could Cassandra let him get away with it?
So, she called Jonathan and asked him to provide legal support for the court in Hydias. What if the prosecutor lost the case?
Jonathan cursed under his breath and got on the plane!
He complained while reading the case file.
Cassandra didn’t take him as a stranger! She asked him for help whenever she needed it! And now he was even summoned to go to Hydias.
After a week of proceedings, Simon and Dominic were sentenced to death to immediate execution. They couldn’t be appealed. Leva was given a death sentence with a six–month reprieve.
Steven didn’t kill any Clusian. He was accused of drug smuggling and sentenced to life imprisonment due to a large number of drugs. However, he was not happy with the decision and filed an appeal.
More than half a month had passed. Kenneth only stayed with Cassandra for two days after returning to Drieso. The rest of the time, he was busy with closed training in the army. He planned to give his soldiers a vacation to celebrate Christmas after the training.
Cassandra missed him at home. She was so bored that she checked Twitter on her phone and saw people discussing Simon’s trial!
[What great news! The bad guy is finally dying! Two bitter rivals will die together!]
[I’m going to set off firecrackers to celebrate it. They were eventually sentenced to death! My parents can rest in peace now!]
[I’m sorry
for your loss.]
[If they don’t die, I will never be able to overcome grief. Now they’re sentenced to

death, my wish is fulfilled.]
[The world is a beautiful place. It was ruined by these nasty people.]
[I’m glad they were sentenced to death!]
[Where are you gonna celebrate it? I’d like to join you for dinner!]
[Come celebrate with me. My address is xxxxxx! I’m expecting you!]
[Wow, it’s for real!]
[Am I the only one who wants to know when Whitecrane Hall will open again?]
[Well, Whitecrane Hall hasn’t been opened since someone made a scene in there. Although there are doctors on duty, they only serve patients for their follow–up visits. It’s still not open to new patients for the time being. When will they reopen?]
[What? Whitecrane Hall hasn’t opened yet. Is Dr. Quirke still unhappy about what happened the last time? Otherwise, how could it not open?]
[I think Dr. Quirke is still mad at us. He did good deeds for his country and the people, but we cursed him to death. No one will be happy about it.]
Cassandra was confused. She didn’t get why they said she was angry.
Whitecrane Hall closed because Hugo gave employees one month off.
Unexpectedly, the netizens seemed to know the reason and someone suddenly came out to explain it.
[Who said Whitecrane Hall was closed? When those people caused us trouble, our boss shut it down urgently and gave employees one month off with paid leave!]
[Exactly! We won’t go back to work after Christmas. If you have any diseases, please go to see another doctor!]
[Is that true?!]
[One month paid vacation? Does Whitecrane Hall need a cleaner? I’d like to apply for the job!]
[Why do they take such a long time off? Are they immoral or do they lose their humanity? What’s the problem with working? Why did they have a break? I don’t get them.]
[Don’t kid me. I’d like to go see Dr. Quirke now. I beg you to open now!]

In the end, Whitecrane Hall did not open because Cassandra said they couldn’t get back on their words.
Their followers waited for a long time but did not hear that Whitecrane Hall had reopened. Meanwhile, Kenneth came back from closed training.
When Kenneth got home, he hurriedly held Cassandra in his arms. “Cassie, I miss you so much!”
He was busy with closed training every day. At least, he could do FaceTime with Cassandra. As a commander, he shouldn’t seek any personal privileges. Therefore, he only made video calls with Cassie occasionally at night.
In the past two months, they seldom met.
“Kenneth, I miss you, too,” Cassandra said in Kenneth’s arms.
Kenneth gently let go of Cassandra and their eyes met the next second. Suddenly, Kenneth lowered his head and pressed his lips against Cassandra’s.
He started to kiss her gently and then deepened the kiss. They kissed intensely as if nothing else existed. The butler and Susan blushed and turned to leave as they saw the scene.
Cassandra and Kenneth loved each other so much. They wondered when they would have a baby.
About ten minutes later, Cassandra was short of breath. Kenneth didn’t let her go until her hands pushed at his chest. “Why can’t you learn to catch your breath when kissing?” he teased.
A glimmer of amusement showed in his eyes.
Cassandra blushed instantly. How dare he tease him after taking advantage of her!
Cassandra buried her face against his chest silently.
Kenneth felt his entire chest warm as if he weren’t afraid of the cold outside.
“Next time, I must teach you how to catch your breath. Otherwise, we won’t kiss for long,” he continued.
Cassandra didn’t look up but said sullenly, “You’re such a rascal.”

“I only teach you how to kiss,” Kenneth said. She was his future wife. So, what if he acted like a rascal?
If Cassandra had not been younger than the marriage age, he would have married her already.
At that time, they would belong to each other for the rest of their lives.
The AC temperature in Pinchart Mansion was high. After they hugged for a while, Cassandra felt a little hot. She patted Kenneth’s hand in disgust and said, “I’m hot.”
“But I’m still cold,” Kenneth grinned.
Cassandra raised her head and stared at him as if considering whether what he said was real or not.
Five seconds later, Cassandra realized that Kenneth was lying to her. She patted his hand again and said, “I’m hot now!”
Kenneth had no choice but to let her go.
“It’s getting late. Go to bed early,” Kenneth said, rubbing Cassandra’s head.
When he arrived home and saw the living room lit up and Cassandra sitting on the sofa, the house was starting to feel like a home.
No matter how late he came home, lights were always on in Pinehart Mansion or neighboring villas. However, he felt different this time.
The moment he saw Cassandra at home, he felt warmth in his heart.
Probably he had never felt it before, so he looked forward to starting a family.
“Okay, you too. Have a good night’s sleep,” Cassandra said with a nod.
“Cassie, let’s go shopping tomorrow and buy something for Christmas Dinner,” Kenneth said.
He was looking forward to Christmas.
