Ex-Husband’s Love Dilemma

Chapter 75 "What... What does he mean? Did he think that my painting is fake, too? she mused.

Cassandra laughed at herself in her heart and looked at him faintly with disappointment in her eyes.

Does he really love Rebecca that much? she wondered.

Peter also noticed Cassandra's expression and still refused to relent. "Who invited Ms. Spencer to my birthday? How did 1 not know I had such a guest?" Peter was merciless. Rebecca's eyes were red, and she was on the verge of tears. She felt extremely aggrieved. She said. “Mr. Peter Quinn. I know you cherish Cassandra and that you are not happy that Benita exposed her lie by telling the truth. I didn't mean to make Cassandra look bad either, but since she has the audacity to do so, she should bear the consequences. You can't turn a blind eye in front of everyone just because you are partial to Cassandra." "Rebecca, don't talk to Grandpa like that." Orlando's face darkened slightly. He glanced at Rebecca and then looked at Peter, saying, "Grandpa. Rebecca didn't mean anything by it." Peter snorted coldly. "What? Are you teaming up with an outsider to lecture me?" "Grandpa... Rebecca uttered.

"That's enough!" Peter shouted and looked at Rebecca with indifference. He said, "Are you trying to lecture me, Ms. Spencer?" Frederick and Gabriela also questioned, 'Ms. Spencer, why did you do this?" "Rebecca, apologize to Grandpa," Orlando said.

His behavior seemed like he was accusing Rebecca, but the others present felt that he was defending Rebecca. Rebecca pressed her lips tightly and spoke. "Landy, I didn't do anything wrong. I don't want to apologize. It was Cassandra who was in the wrong. She should be the one to apologize" Orlando's face drooped, and the atmosphere bectense.

The people present were all influential figures in the business community. Although they respected and feared the Quinn family, there were still smurmurs of dissatisfaction.

Someone whispered that the Quinn family was bullying Rebecca. Since Cassandra deceived George with a high imitation painting, she should admit her mistake and apologize. It would not be right for Peter to just let it pass because of favoritism.

Cassandra pursed her lips. She did not explain or defend herself. She did not want to create a mess at Peter's birthday banquet.

But at this moment, she could not take it any longer, especially when those people pointed fingers at the Quinn family. To her, it was acceptable if they accused her, but they could not accuse the Quinn family and Peter.

Cassandra looked at Rebecca and Benita and said with deep eyes, "So, you think this painting is a high imitation?" "Isn't it?" Benita asked and straightened her posture.

Cassandra did not respond and kept staring at Rebecca.

Rebecca shifted her gaze slightly, but she still maintained the demeanor of a celestial being and said, "Cassandra, I know you Chapter 75 May want to make Mr. Peter Quinn happy. No one will blyou if you don't have access to the real painting. After all, it's the thought that counts. But you did something wrong. Shouldn't you admit your mistake? Just apologize to everyone. No one will blyou." Cassandra smirked and clarified. So, as long as I apologize, everything will be fine?" "Of course, as long as you realize and rectify your mistakes, Mr. Peter Quinn will forgive you, and everyone will not blyou," said Reberca.

"So. I'm supposed to thank you for your kindness, Ms. Spencer?" Cassandra responded.

With that, Cassandra's face suddenly changed. Then, she took out her phone and opened a video. She said to Peter, "Grandpa Peter, I have an old friend who wants to wish you a happy birthday. Would you like to have a look at the video he recorded? Peter said, "Sure, Cassie's friend is my friend." Peter smiled and nodded, as if he did not care whether the painting was genuine or not.

However, Austin and Evelyn were not very happy about this. Evelyn uttered, "Cassandra, what else are you trying to do? Apologize to Grandpa Peter and everyone right now. Do you have to disgrace the Jackson family like this?" Cassandra answered. “I haven't said anything yet. Why are you so anxious? I know how Cassie is better than you." Peter stared at Evelyn with a stern face and then glanced at the crowd. His sharp gaze made people dare not to look at him. directly.

Cassandra felt that her heart was enveloped by warmth and lightened into a faint smile.

Although Orlando did not believe her, the Quinn family made her feel the protection and support of a family. Cassandra pursed her lips and took Peter's arm, saying, "“Grandpa Peter, calm down. Here, have a seat.” She then mirrored the video on the screen and played it.

A voice could be heard in the video "Hello, Mr. Peter Quinn. I'm Scott Prior. Happy birthday to you. Cassie took this landscape painting from me. She said she wanted to give it to her most respected grandpa. I had the pleasure of meeting. you many years ago, and I know that you are my most loyal fan. The painting is mine. If Cassie hadn't asked, I wouldn't have been willing to give it away. I wish you a happy birthday, and I hope to have the opportunity to meet you and exchange notes over the calligraphy that Cassie takes pride in with you" The video ended..

Most of the people present knew who the person in the video was Someone even exclaimed, "It's really Mr. Prior, The painting can be forged, but the videos and people can't. Why would anyone want to misjudge Ms. Jackson?" The wind did not always blow in one direction, and people would change their tune based on the situation. As a result, the person who fueled the flhad completely changed sides.

Austin and Evelyn were resented. “Cassandra, since you knew Mr. Prior, you should have made it clear earlier so as not to make everyone misjudge you and put Grandpa Peter out of sorts." "Who said I am out of sorts? I'm feeling good." Peter responded with dissatisfaction, then looked at Cassandra and said lovingly, "Cassie is helpingmake track for a star. Why didn't you tellthat you know Mr. Prior? I must invite him to cover to my house if I have a chance." Chapter 75 "All right. I'll tell him to cover and paint with you when I have the time. I don't think he can paint better than you, said Cassandra.

Peter laughed. He was elated.

At this time, someone questioned, "Ms. Spencer just said that her painting was genuine. Now that Ms. Jackson's has been proven to be genuine, what about Ms. Spencer's?" Benita's face stiffened slightly, and so was Rebecca's.

Peter said, "Ms. Spencer, you and your friend have wronged Cassien Shouldn't you apologize for that? I don't care whether your painting is real or not, so does the Quinn family." He was implying that he disliked Rebecca's painting. Therefore, it did not matter to him whether the painting was authentic or not.

Benita's parents cforward to apologize and criticize Benita, then hurriedly pulled her away.

Rebecca stood there alone and looked at Orlando helplessly. She said, "Landy, it wasn't was or know purpose. I didn't know what was going on. I have been tricked. I bid the painting through multiple channels. I must be deceived by those people..." Rebecca started crying as she spoke.

Orlando appeared indifferent, and his face turned extremely ugly.

Before he could say anything, Cassandra said, “So you think you don't need to apologize just because you were tricked, Ms. Spencer?" "Cassandra... I really was tricked. Why do you have to be so aggressive and embarrass me?" said Rebecca.

"Are you blaming me, Ms. Spencer?" Cassandra sneered.

"Landy, helpexplain it to Mr. Peter Quinn and Cassandra. I really didn't know what happened." Rebeccam reached but to pull at Orlando's clothes and said in a low voice, "Landy, my head is starting to ache again... I feel breathless and uncomfortable." Orlando frowned and said lowly, "Grandpa, Rebecca didn't mean it. I apologize to you on her behalf. Please don't be mad, okay!" "Orlando, Ms. Spencer herself said that we should apologize for our own mistake. Do you think she can make an exception?" Cassandra asked, her eyes staring straight at Orlando.
