A Graduation Gift Chapter 188 It’s Easier For A Woman To Pursue A Man (Part One)

Cassandra was still shocked. It took a while before it wore off and she was able to pull herself together.
At the side, Stella crossed her hands and raised them to her chest.

"Why didn't you tell me about this, Cassandra? I'm your best friend and I can't believe you keep secrets
from me! But please accept my best wishes. It's lucky of you to find a sweet and handsome boyfriend
in such a short time! I hope he can heal your wound. It was romantic of him to announce you as his
girlfriend to the whole world! How I envy you!" Stella chatted non-stop.

Her face showed an expression of admiration, especially that she didn't have a boyfriend at the
moment.

Cassandra curled her lips. She looked at the photo again before she averted her eyes to Stella, not
knowing whether to laugh or cry about the situation.

She thought hard how to explain everything to Stella. If she chose to say that Dylon and her pretended
to be lovers to get Lyndsy out of trouble, then she would have to explain why and open up about what
happened to Lyndsy. And it was impossible to elaborate the entire story in just a few words.

While Cassandra was thinking hard on how to explain the entire situation to her friend, Stella just talked
and talked.

"When will that silly goose spontaneously do something like that? Will I ever experience something like
that in my life? If he can act like your boyfriend, I'll sure be jumping at it!" Stella muttered.

The serious and depressed expression on her face made Cassandra part her lips with an abortive
attempt at a laugh.

Cassandra knew exactly who she was talking to. It was Victor, who always followed Rufus like his
shadow wherever he went.



Victor had left a good impression on Cassandra. He might not talk much and always showed a cold
exterior. But he was a good man, responsible and very considerate of others.

Cassandra lightly bumped Stella on the shoulder with a teasing smile on her face.

"Since he's as silly as a goose, you can be more enthusiastic. It's okay for a girl to pursue a boy
nowadays. It's not a big deal as long as you two can be happily together," she suggested.

As far as she was concerned, it was impossible for Victor to take the first step. So Cassandra knew she
had to encourage Stella to take the initiative.

"I don't know. It might be embarrassing to ask him to be my boyfriend. And call me old fashioned, but I
believe the man should take the first step!" Stella grumbled at the thought.

She suddenly felt down and was unable to continue with her yoga session. She lay flat on her back on
the mat and stretched out on all fours.

"Don't be depressed! You'll be together when the time is right and it really doesn't matter who says the
three magic words first," Cassandra continued to try and cheer her up.

She shook her head at Stella and could not stand the expression on her face.

Stella sat up with a jerk as if something stung her from behind.

"Oh, speaking of which, I just remembered a piece of gossip I heard the other day. Oh, it's beyond your
imagination, Cassandra! It is the biggest news and the hottest chin-wag in Tang Group right now. Do
you want to know what the gossip is? It's about Mr. Luo, the most attractive man ever!" Stella
whispered secretly but filled with excitement at the same time.

Her eyes lit up and she couldn't hold back. It seemed that the depression of not being able to make
Victor confess just faded away.



"Mr. Luo?" Cassandra asked right away with a confused tone.

What a day this had become! One shocking news after another. But it was strange and rare for Rufus
to become the center of gossips.

"You know what? A woman is crazily pursuing Mr. Luo recently! She comes to his office at the Tang
Group every day to bring him lunch. She stays inside his office the whole lunchtime and doesn't leave
until the afternoon when everybody needs to get back to work!" Stella described vividly as she saw it by
her own eyes.

"Somebody sneaked a peek at what she brought for lunch. It was indeed a feast for the eyes. She
made it with her own two hands, just for Mr. Luo!

But as I learned, Mr. Luo never reciprocated any interest to her. It's weird, because I've never seen a
woman so brazen to show up in his office every single day! And she wasn't shut outside!

People believe that Mr. Luo must be attracted by her, but he's unable to break his habit just yet. You
know how cold he could be! As time goes by, I guess that his heart will soon be melted by this woman if
she doesn't stop. Soon he will throw himself at her feet. Huh, Victor is just the same as him!

It's just a matter of time. Let's wait and see what happens next. They're well matched as a couple, he is
an eligible bachelor and she is an elegant pianist. Hmm, what a perfect pair they make!"

Stella's eyes gleamed and danced, happy like a lark. Her cheeks became red from excitement. On the
other hand, Cassandra's heart was sinking down as if a rock was tied to it and her entire body was
suddenly frozen. 'The pianist...Amanda Ke!' A name flashed across Cassandra's mind.

That same woman had held Rufus's arms intimately and she had made Rufus leave her without any
hesitation with just a phone call.



Cassandra could see the billboards of that woman every day on her way to work, and she was smiling
gracefully like an angel along the skyline of G City's busy streets.

That same woman was just like a shadow that existed between Rufus and her, half visible and half
hidden; it was impossible for Cassandra to get rid of the shadow because she kept reminding them of
her existence every now and then.

Cassandra had deliberately ignored the woman and was reluctant to think about her. She made an
effort to avoid her own suspicion breaking her relationship with Rufus.

Until now, what Stella told her had forced her to reconsider this woman and thought that she was not as
simple as she used to think.
