Staring at Cassie, Lynn kept smiling and replied softly, "You still remember me."
In fact, it was easy for Cassie to recognize Lynn, who presented at some luxurious jewelry club as she came back from abroad. What's more, Cassie would never forget her because of Roy.
Cassie acted elegantly and then said, "I heard that you bought the diamond from Vera Club that bid back from England, so all of the staff in Runestone Group knows you well."
Lynn grinned and then responded. "Perhaps you still didn't know that I also bought a bracelet that you identified."
"Really? I am so appreciative." Although startled, Cassie smiled soon.
Staring at Cassie, Lynn replied, "You don't have to be appreciative. I just wonder why Roy loves you so much and why he is attracted to you."
Shocked again, Cassie didn't expect her to say something like this.
"Can I have a talk with you?" asked Lynn.
Cassie was about to decline her request since she felt that Lynn had come to look for trouble, but soon Lynn added, "Now that you come to my restaurant for a meal, I am sure you didn't care to spend some time talking with you. I'll treat you to this meal." Lynn said and then asked the banquet manager.
The manager remained respectful as he found that Lynn was there. Lynn ordered him to spare the payment for the meal while the manager did it right away. It was only then that Cassie realized that Lynn was the boss of this restaurant.
Cassie felt bad having a conversation with Lynn because she seldom contacted those girls from rich families. She thought that those rich girls were all spoiled. But Irish was an exception since Cassie thought that Irish was the poor Cinderella in a rich family.
Lynn looked elegant, but in fact, she was capable and astute. Lynn was different from other rich girls who just squandered their family's money. Lynn ran the company herself, and it could tell that she was a capable woman.
Obviously, Lynn was regarded as her rival in love.
She went to the anteroom, and as soon as she sat down, Lynn said directly without any hesitation.
"Miss Lin, I am a candid person, so I'd like to be frank with you. I like Roy."
Keeping silent for a little while, Cassie put her thoughts together and then replied softly, "You shouldn't tell me but Roy."
"I am sure Roy knows that, but he still selected you. I don't understand why he loves you so much," said Lynn. In fact, Lynn came to Roy again and found that he was so humorous, but she couldn't figure out why Roy ignored her family background and her beauty.
Since then, Lynn spent much time getting more information about him, and to her surprise, she found that Roy even devoted himself to charity which touched her heart again. Although Roy looked like a playboy, he was passionate yet warm. That was why Lynn was deeply attracted to this man.
After that, Lynn met Roy several times with the help of her family. Gradually, Lynn realized that she had completely fallen in love with Roy. However, Roy faded from her eyesight suddenly. Anxiously, Lynn began to call him, invite him for a meal and tell him that she loved him so much.
Unfortunately, Roy told her that he was going to get married soon.
To Lynn's surprise, Roy's intended wife was Cassie, who came from an ordinary family. What's more, Cassie was his ex-girlfriend, which confused Lynn, because she couldn't understand why he would be reconciled with Cassie. They lived in different worlds, and they were not well-matched at all.
Therefore, Lynn decided not to give in because she tried to find out why Roy would fall in love with Cassie.
Taking a sip of the coffee, Cassie looked up at Lynn and said sincerely, "Indeed, I am also confused. I don't know why he would be attracted to me."
Lynn was a pretty yet elegant girl from a notable family. She was well-educated and even managed her own company. Generally speaking, such a capable and beautiful woman would attract most men. And even Cassie felt that Lynn was a person who was worth making friends with her.
Startled, Lynn grinned after a while and then replied, "I will think you are showing off deliberately if you don't stay calm without any mood change."
But what was happiness? Cassie was so confused.
Was it happiness to get married to a man who was not available to another woman?
Heaving a sigh, Cassie softly lowered her head, "I am sorry for that. That is the only thing I can say."
Putting down the coffee, Lynn stared at Cassie and said again. "Actually, I really want to give you a large sum of money and ask you to leave Roy as others do."
"No, I can't leave him," responded Cassie with a faint smile.
Roy put a chain around her throat, and as long as Cassie walked away from him, he could suffocate her to death. Cassie was clear that Roy was a desperate man, and she dared not piss him off.
However, Lynn misunderstood what she meant. Lynn paused for a while after hearing that and then continued, "I am not going to give up. You know that my father often cooperates with the Runestone Group. Now Roy is the chairman of Runestone Group, I will come to him with the aid of my father. I have to tell you that I will meet him even if he gets married to you. I don't care if you would curse me. I still believe that he may change his mind someday."
Cassie was shocked because she didn't expect Lynn would say that, so she smiled faintly and said, "If it is my fate, then I could do nothing but accept."
Startled again, Lynn gazed at Cassie.
Cassie stood up and was about to leave. She took some banknotes out of her wallet and put them on the table. "Mrs. Siewert, I like the food here, but I have to pay the bill, or I will be embarrassed to come here for a meal," said Cassie softly.
Lynn still remained astonished because she felt that Cassie was different from other girls.

Joseph finally finished his work, and when he was about to take some rest, Daisy handed over the computer and showed him another startling piece of news.
Joseph and Becky became the target of everybody's criticism because "ping-pong ball" declaimed that Becky had suffered from depression because of Joseph, and he even said that Becky even tried to commit suicide herself. "Ping-pong ball" published an article on Facebook and asked Joseph to respond to this issue. He even pointed out that he had evidence that Becky was receiving psychotherapy from Irish.
Therefore, under the pressure of the public, Becky cleared that it was not the truth but only rumors. What's more, Becky also gave an interview with reporters, denying that she suffered from depression. For a while, it caught people's eyes.
Daisy stared at Joseph worriedly and waited for his decision. However, Joseph just kept silent for a while as he finished reading the news. He handed over the computer back to Daisy, stepping to the window of the anteroom with something clenched in his hands.
Daisy clearly saw that his personal cell phone was used to contact Irish.
