Surviving Divorce Her Miraculous Second Chance - Season 1 Episode 85

I had to keep Orlando, at crucial moments, he was my mouthpiece.

The reason I didn’t insist on everyone staying was to give myself an out. I couldn’t corner Oswald with no way out. On the contrary, I wanted him to back down and settle for less.

Unexpectedly, the next one to speak was Sergio, Oswald’s father!

“What’s the matter with bringing things into the office, without any sense of priority? Can’t you discuss it at home?” Sergio adopted a parental tone, his face distorted with disapproval, “You’re becoming more and more unseemly!”

I listened to his words, unceremoniously turned to him and spoke, but still respectfully called out, “Dad, are you referring to me? Whether I’m up to standard or not, you’ll see soon enough. But you have to listen carefully, look carefully, who’s not up to standard!”

“Cassie, who are you talking to?” Oswald immediately became uncomfortable. Perhaps since I entered the Price family’s door, I had never spoken like this before, always speaking softly. They were all used to it.

I abruptly stood up, “Oswald, you’re used to my soft–spoken manner, aren’t you? I speak this way out of politeness. Don’t push your luck, do you really think I’m a piece of meat on a chopping board? You can cut wherever you want?”

In fact, as I spoke these words, my lips were trembling non–stop. I knew very well that Oswald thought he had the Broadray Vision project in the bag, which was why he had become more assertive with me.

Contrary to his previous image of a good national husband, he really wanted to kill the donkey after getting the millstone off.

Oswald, taken aback by my performance, squinted at me, trying to figure out what was going on in my mind.

“Cassie, stop stirring up trouble here, what have I done? It was you, not me, who let the man take you away. You think you’re some kind of saint? Don’t think I don’t know, you’ve been meeting men behind my brother’s back. How dare you come here and spout nonsense?”

Seeing my firm attitude today, Lelia yelled at me guiltily, then turned to Sergio, “Dad, let’s go, don’t listen to her nonsense.”

“Oh! Trying to leave? Feeling guilty?” Eleanor crossed her arms, blocking her path. “When you were messing with someone else’s man, I didn’t see you hesitate. Even the grass on your own turf… oh no, I mean the grass in your own circle you eat, why are you scared now?”

“Get lost! Who the hell are you? Stop babbling here!” Although Lelia said this, she still dodged Eleanor and stood in front of her father.

“Eleanor, you’ve gone too far. Don’t think that just because you’re close with Cassie, I have to give in to you. As for the matters of the Price family, it’s not your place as an outsider to comment and dictate!” Oswald was clearly taken aback, somewhat flustered and angry.

“That depends on whether you are innocent. What have you done? Don’t you know in your heart?” I took over Oswald’s words, looking at him with a stern gaze.

“You’re full of shit!” Lelia snarled at me, baring her teeth and claws. “I’m warning you, stop spouting nonsense here! You’re the one who shamelessly came back to bite the hand that fed you.

Eleanor was instantly furious, charging at her, and I had to pull her back.

“Lelia, why didn’t you tell me why I was taken to the hospital?” I looked at Lelia.

The latter sneered, with a forced smile on his face, “All I saw was you, a
