A Graduation Gift
Chapter 128 Falling In Love With A Princess
This was the first time Cassandra realised how ridiculous a man could get. Joel perhaps just churned out an absurd lie to Courtney
and Courtney believed him blindly! The whole story depressed Cassandra very much.
"Joel confessed that he had cheated Courtney out of a large amount of money and justified himself by saying that he fell for another woman because he wanted to escape the scrutiny of her family. Courtney was stubborn and blindly in love with him, so she probed Joel about who the woman was…"
Rufus concluded his summary with a serious look. The fact that a scum like Joel had worked in Tang Group for two years and nobody knew of his crimes, shocked Rufus for a long time. 'Fortunately, we've found the evidence to prove his crime, or he would do more damage, ' thought Rufus.
"So he told Courtney that he had fallen in love with a princess?!"
Cassandra was incensed at Joel's treachery. In her mind, a man like Joel deserved to go to hell.
Courtney was devastated by the passing of her father and the betrayal of her boyfriend, thus she had isolated herself from the whole world.
Since Joel disclosed that the woman he loved was a princess, Courtney adopted a princess lifestyle too. She was crazy about princess-style things, such as royal-style decoration and a dreamlike princess room.
She was barely sober most of the time and when she looked disinterested, it was because she was suffering internally. The thought of Joel greatly distressed her and she often felt broken alone in her room.
When she lost her cool, Courtney would sink herself in the past with Joe. She spent hours picking out a dress for dating and ran to the door from time to time to see if Joel had returned. She hoped he would come back one day and profess eternal love for her and her alone.
She was so vulnerable, that even a man like Joel could destroy her. Cassandra swore to send him to prison for what he had done.
"That son of a bitch! How I wish I could cut him to pieces! I would do that secretly to protect Courtney."
Cassandra blushed with anger as she recalled how much Courtney was hurt within. It upset her greatly to think about that.
'Had Joel cast a spell on her? Why does she love him so much?
What if I were to love a man so obsessively one day? Would I be fortunate or not?' mused Cassandra.
"Did Courtney ask him which princess he fell in love with?"
asked Cassandra with a frown. Courtney was stubborn enough to have asked this question.
"Yes, and Joel told her it was Princess Ofelia, the Princess of N Country, who was on a diplomatic trip to our country. You can still find the related news online now. She even made a comment on the men in our country during an interview, saying that she liked Chinese men very much,"
replied Rufus with a confused look. He hadn't expected that Joel could make up such a ridiculous story.
