Cassandra moved really fast, leaving them no chance to react. Even Anthony who was holding the handgun didnât react in time.
With a bang, Cassandra hit Anthony on the nose. Then she quickly grabbed his wrist and twisted it. Anthony cried in pain.
The handgun was dropped, and Anthonyâs hand was broken.
âTalk nicely next time. If you dare to put a handgun against me again, Iâll cut off your hands!â Cassandraâs voice was incredibly cold.
But her tone was also fearless and confident. Hugo was really excited, and he still remembered to pick up the handgun on the ground.
Cassandra let go of Anthonyâs hand and said disdainfully, âLoser.â
She took over the handgun from Hugoâs hand. That idiot had pulled the trigger, so it was easy to fire accidentally. It was not safe for Hugo to hold it.
Cassandra took the handgun and pointed it at Anthony. His hand was broken, and. his face was really pale. Seeing the muzzle point at him, he trembled with fear. He had pulled the trigger. If Cassandra didnât pay attention...
âWhat exactly do you want?â
Cassandra looked at Anthony playfully and thought, âWhat a loser. Heâs already scared? He was so arrogant just now!
âI just want to tell you to put the gun away.â
Suddenly, a gunshot sounded. Everyone presentâs heart trembled. They closed. their eyes and opened them again.
Then they found that everyone was safe and sound. Only a hole had appeared on the ground in front of Anthony.
Cassandra withdrew her hand turned it backward and handed it to Anthony. âHere you are.â
Anthony took the handgun with trembling hands. He still didnât want to give up and asked, âWho are you?â
1/5 111 Chapter 287 âWho am I?â Cassandra chuckled. âSince you asked sincerely, Iâll tell you.
âIâm Cassandra, a native of Drieso and a student of Juset University. I was an orphan since childhood, but I have good talent and have learned some medical skills since I was a child. Your prince consort kidnapped the person who is in charge of my company.
Iâm just here to take my person back.
âI saw you h some family issues. I have always been helpful and reluctant to see other people suffer, so I was about to help your queen, but...â Cassandra shook her head and said with disdain, âLooks like youâre not willing to let me help you.â
Anthony didnât believe it at all. He thought, âHer Majesty has said that this woman is her daughter.
âShe even wanted to give her the throne. That belongs to Her Majesty. Why should she give it to someone else?
âEven if she wants to do it, it should happen when she is dying, but not now!
âAs for the throne that Ms. Leanna Stark said, I really have no interest in it. I live a free life without parents. Why should I be the leader of a country and considerate to others?â
Cassandra wasnât a saint. She didnât have to be concerned about and help common people.
Leannaâs eyes were full of disappointment, and Darrenâs eyes were also filled with complicated emotions.
Cassandra ignored Anthony and turned to Darren. She said coldly, âMr. Yates, donât forget our deal. If you and Ms. Leanna Stark break the rule again, I can leave at any time. You can have a try if you donât believe me.â
Then Cassandra ignored them and glanced at Hugo. âLetâs go.â
Hugo followed behind Cassandra and left directly.
Cassandraâs voice sounded outside the meeting hall, âCheck if Theodore has already gotten all the herbs. If not, let him pay and you do it.â
âOkay, right away.â
*****
2/5 A O 10:33 Wed, 13 Mar BG Chapter 287 This mess started and ended because of Cassandra.
In Leannaâs bedroom, Leanna asked confusedly, âWhat deal did you make with Cassie?â
Darren kept silent. He didnât know how to explain it to Leanna. She wouldnât be able to take such a thing at all.
âDonât worry. Itâs not a big deal.â Darren sighed. He was not ready to tell Leanna yet. He was afraid that she could not take it, so he could only coax her softly, âLetâs not mention the matter of reuniting with our daughter first, okay? When you get better, we will think about how to make up for her. We can bring it up after she forgives us, okay?â
No matter how hard they tried, it would only backfire, and even make Cassandra hate them more. Darren didnât want to see that happen.
Leanna was even more confused. She didnât understand why Darren did this. She thought, âOur daughter is right here. We can reunite directly. Why should we make a detour?
âAnd also the throne. Weâve agreed to pass it on to Cassie. Whatâs all about it now?â
âNo, my daughter is right in front of me. Why canât I reunite with her? Are hiding something from me?â
Leanna shook her head. She couldnât accept Darrenâs explanation at all.
you She had been waiting for her daughter for 18 years, and she didnât want to wait any longer.
âIâll tell you when you get better, Darren said helplessly.
âNo, tell me now. Is it related to me?â Leanna had a hunch. It must have something to do with her. Darren would only compromise when it came to something that related to her.
*Leanna, your health is the most important thing. Cassie said that you should take more rest and donât worry about anything.
Just leave these things to me first, okay? Weâll just postpone it temporarily, not forever. Come on.â
Darren tried his best to persuade Leanna. He was also exhausted, but he still had to support his family.
A 10:33 Wed, 13 Mar BG Clupter 287 The poison in Leannaâs and Harperâs bodies hadnât been removed, and they hadnât. reunited with their daughter yet. Darren couldnât collapse now, so he could only balance everything in the middle.
âYou must have made a deal. If you donât tell me, I will ask Cassie. I believe she is. willing to tell me.â
Darren didnât know what to say. It was true. If it were Cassandra, she would definitely tell Leanna without hesitation. The more direct, the better.
Darren sighed and said calmly, âI can tell you. But you must control your emotions, okay?â
Leanna nodded, and then Darren said, âI did have made a deal with Cassie...â
Meanwhile, Hugo found Theodore and asked coldly, âMr. Yates, have you gotten all the herbs that Ms. Yates needs?â
Seeing that it was Hugo, Theodore was very polite. He shook his head and said, âSorry, I havenât collected all of them yet. We still need two more. We canât find any in the whole country.â
Theodore pointed to the medicine cabinet beside him and scratched his head. awkwardly.
Hugo took the list, looked at the medicine cabinet, and checked all the herbs one by one.
The last two herbs were actually quite common, but they might not be valued in foreign countries, so they rarely appeared. Now they couldnât even find any of them.
âMs. Yates has said that you get the money ready and leave the rest to me. Iâll have someone transport them from abroad. You just need to arrange the plane and pay the bill.â
Hugo thought, âIf I handle it, weâll get the herbs tomorrow.
âIf we wait any longer, Ms. Yates will go mad!â
