Chapter 10 Cassandra looked up at Orlando. "Yeah, I did," "Why didn't you discuss it with me?" He looked upset, a wave of emotions swirling in his eyes.

Cassandra didn't understand why Orlando had such a strong reaction. 'Was it because I took the liberty of informing the Jackson family about the divorce?' she wondered.

"I didn't see the need for a heads-up. Aren't we signing the divorce papers on Monday? In that case, you shouldn't have an issue withlaying out our situation to my family, right?" Cassandra replied.

"Are you that desperate to sever ties with me?" Orlando's tone was frosty.

Cassandra was taken aback, unable to make head or tail of his cryptic question.

She plastered on a helpless smile. "Orlando, did you forget you're the one who brought up a divorce?" To herself, she added, "You're the one in a rush to leave me.' With a darkened expression, Orlando frowned and fired back coldly, "There's no need to rush things. We can wait till all the paperwork is tied up. Your parents dropped the bomb on Grandpa the moment they heard. We're heading back to the Quinn manor later." His comments sent Cassandra on a thinking spree. 'Could it be that Grandpa Peter getting wind of the divorce threw off Orlando's plan? He wants out and doesn't want any hitches.' Smiling a wry smile, she brushed off the overthinking.

Taking a calming breath, she replied evenly, “Don't sweat it. I'll sort it out with Grandpa Peter. He's fond of me. He'll surely caround" Upon seeing her nonchalance, showing no slightest hint of reluctance to break things off, Orlando's face turned even frostier. A peculiar sense of discontent swam through him, stirring up a storm inside. He couldn't wrap his head around how Cassandra could switch her attitude so rapidly.

Before the divorce bombshell, Cassandra was always tender and thoughtful, caring for him in her unique way. They maintained their respectful distances, free from any disputes. However, since he dropped the divorce bomb, Cassandra swung between sarcasm and indifference.

Orlando eyed Cassandra's radiant, spectacular face, feeling like she was cloaked in a layer of mist, obscuring her true essence. He knew she was the crown jewel of the high society. She wasn't all flash and no substance- rather, her allure was magnetic, leaving an indelible mark on people's minds.

He couldn't help but question, "What kind of man was her ex that made her sacrifice her marriage?' Before they took their vows.

Orlando made it clear that he was in it to honor his grandfather's wishes. In contrast, Cassandra was looking to part ways for good with her ex.

This didn't just click for him once, but now an uncomfortable sensation gnawed at his heart.

Orlando's jaw clenched up, his voice rough and low. "Cassandra, are you planning to run back to him once we're divorced?" Cassandra paused, fumbling to grasp his implication. When realization dawned on her, her face turned glacial. "No." "Why?" he probed.

"No reason. We've already split, so why would I get back to him? m Besides, he's om he's probably moved on and found someone new by now," she answered. She appeared detached, as if discussing someone else's affairs.

Orlando kept staring at her and didn't let go of any emotion on her face. He questioned, "Wasn'the opposed to breaking up? Maybe he's still hanging onto hopes of a reunion."
