Ex-Husband’s Love Dilemma by Jean Oscar ( Cassandra Jackson ) Chapter 16

Chapter 16

Lloyd made a clarification.

Then, he added, “Even if your grandpa likes her, she will just be an outsider. Perhaps later on, your grandpa might even propose to let her marry Michael.”

Hearing Lloyd’s words, Orlando couldn’t help but imagine the scene when Cassandra and Michael were married.

Orlando’s face turned instantly cold and gloomy. His deep blue eyes resembled a thick layer of crushed ice. He stopped discussing the topic, reached for the glass in front of him, and drank it all.

Cassandra tossed and turned in bed and couldn’t fall asleep. She felt as though an ant was biting her heart. The pain was not strong, but it was unbearable.

She decided to go to the Quinn manor tomorrow morning and discuss with Peter to end this tormenting

marriage as soon as possible.

She closed her eyes and was about to force herself to fall asleep when her phone suddenly rang. It was from

Orlando.

‘Why is he calling at this time?” she pondered.

She hesitated for a while before answering it. “Hello?”

“Cass

? it’s Lloyd. Orlando is drunk at Dark Veil Club; can you come and get him now?” Lloyd’s voice

sound on the phone.

“Is he at Dark Veil Club?” Cassandra frowned and looked surprised.

‘Isn’t he in the hospital with Rebecca? After all, Rebecca said he was taking a bath. Didn’t he mean to stay there?” she thought.

Cassandra pursed her lips. Of course, she didn’t want to go. She was especially mindful and felt upset about what might happen between Orlando and Rebecca in the hospital.

She said, “You can send him home. I’m not going.”

“Cassandra, Orlando is your husband. We’re both drunk, and it’s not safe for us to drive. You can let him stay at Dark Veil Club if it’s more convenient for you. Many women want to be close to him, so who knows what might

happen?” Then, Lloyd hung up directly.

Cassandra was caught in a dilemma. In the end, she finally compromised and drove to Dark Veil Club.

She knew that Orlando and his friends were in a designated private room of Dark Veil Club. She pushed open the door and walked into it. It was very quiet inside, with Orlando alone lying on the couch.

He seemed to have drunk a lot, and she could smell the strong alcohol when she got closer.

Cassandra whispered to him, “Orlando… Orlando… Wake up.”

There was no response.

She pursed her lips and looked discontented. She asked, “Weren’t you with Rebecca in the hospital? Why were you drinking here again? Did Rebecca kick you out because you haven’t divorced me?”

“He has a high tolerance for the woman he loves,‘ Cassandra commented inwardly.

Cassandra tried to help him up, but he was too heavy. She was worried about the baby in her belly, so she had to call the waiter over to get him up.

The breeze wafted through their way back to Dustmeadow Mansion. When the car came to a stop, she stepped out and opened the back seat door. She yelped in surprise when she met Orlando’s deep, blue eyes, “Are you awake?”

“Are you unhappy to pick me up?” Orlando asked in a low voice.

Cassandra pursed her lips and said, “No.”

“In that case, why are you pulling a long face in front of me?” he asked.

“You’re overthinking it. I am always like this,” Cassandra said.

“Cassandra, you’re lying. You never did this before. In the past, when I drank, you’d take me home right away and prepare a hangover remedy for me,” Orlando complained.

His words seemed to hold a hint of hurt feelings.

Cassandra frowned and felt incredulous. ‘It seems that he is really drunk. He could remember these things, but why didn’t he remember our situation now?” she commented inwardly.

She responded, “Orlando, we are going to divorce. I shouldn’t do these things in the future.”

“Could you stop talking about divorce? It’s getting really irritating to hear it all the time,” Orlando suddenly said.

He suddenly got a little angry, and even his face turned gloomy.

Cassandra smiled helplessly as she thought, ‘But this is the truth. Or does he feel annoyed when he realizes he hasn’t divorced me ye
