My Stubborn Mistress 202 Our Love Story- 16: Someone Is Breaking-In

Late at night, Quinn drives Ca.s.sie home. She actually refuses to, as she brought a bike but Quinn insisted. In the end, the bike left in the hospital.

"Thank you, for dropping me home," she thanked Quinn after he opens the car door on the front seat. He was really such a gentleman, Ca.s.sie's impression.

"You're welcome. It's a late-night, dangerous for you to drive home that far."

"Yeah. Thanks, again." Ca.s.sie smiled.

"Don't mention it. You should go in now." Quinn did not leave until he makes sure that Ca.s.sie was now safe inside the house.

Ca.s.sie waves at him from the gla.s.s window beside the door. Quinn raised his left hand then step inside his car and drove it away.

Quinn now comfortably seated on his bed, he also finishes exchanging messages with Ca.s.sie as she decided to go to bed early. She told him that she needs to clean the house and do the family's laundry tomorrow.

He was browsing his Instagram inbox when his phone rings and it was Lily, his mom.

"Mom?"

"Quinn, how was your aunt?" her immediate inquired on him.

"Derek is doing his best mom. We are waiting for aunt Larah to become stable then we will transfer her in the Facility, she has to get better, enough to travel. It will be best if she was in the facility, Derek can do all the research he needs. He also trying to develop a new medicine."

"Oh, I prayed your aunt will be fine. We will be going home soon, son."

"Okay, mom. But don't worry too much, okay? I know Derek doing all his best."

"Yes, son. I believe in him and I am praying. How was your uncle Nicholas?"

"He's quiet but I know he does worry as well."

"That's for sure, Quinn. By the way, who is this girl your aunt telling me?"

Quinn blushed. He suddenly feeling shy toward his mom. What the heck? He was this adult and all. He smiled.

"Is she your girlfriend, already?" Lily asked excitedly.

Hah, how many times did he answered each question on his inbox? He did tell them honestly that Ca.s.sandra didn't know his real ident.i.ty. He has to tell his mom as well.

"Actually, mom. We're just friends and everyone just a.s.sumes. But--"

"But you do like her,  am I correct?"

Quinn could picture that his mom is smiling right now.

"Honestly, yes. Am courting her, however, she doesn't know who I am. I mean is, I introduced myself differently."

"I see, but you should fix that sooner. It will be not good that you lied to her in the beginning."

"I understand, mom. Yes, I will."

"You know, she does familiar and looks like someone I know."

"Really?"

"Yes, son. What is her full name by the way?"

"Ca.s.sandra Young, mom. . . Ca.s.sandra Marivella Chen Young."

"Hmm. . . that's right! It's Landon's daughter!"

"Huh? Do you know her family?"

"Her father was your dad's Junior in College when he went to the States for his Master's Degree."

"Wow."

"What fate. So you did meet his daughter when she's old now."

"Mom? Are you saying that we did meet before?" Quinn could feel how his heart jumps with thrills. So, they meet before!

"Have you forgotten then?"

"About?"

"If you didn't remember, you are 12 by then when we went to Africa for a Global Forum with the UN Amba.s.sadors. Before we go back to Paris, your dad decided to visit Landon's family. But then, the next day, while a storm hits the mountain where they were living in, Landon's wife Hannah gives birth to a beautiful baby girl."

"And it was you who we asked if what name you think is nice for her, and you suggested that you like the name, Ca.s.sandra."

"Is that true!?"

"Yes. Well, you are 12 by then, you probably forgot."

Ah, why did he forgotten then? He can't believe it! Meeting Ca.s.sandra is actually not just by chance of fate, but it is their fate to meet again!

Meanwhile, Loura was disturbed by a continuous ring of the living room telephone. She put down the book she's reading and went down to the first floor.

"h.e.l.lo? Bastien-Bennett Res--"

"Miss Loura?"

"Ca.s.sie? Is that you? What's wrong?" Loura immediately sensing that something happens, Ca.s.sie is whispering.

Loura waiting for Ca.s.sie to answer, but she just quiet now. Loura gasped when she could hear the sounds of a doork.n.o.b that trying to open the door.

"Ca.s.sie? Are you alright?"

"Someone is breaking in the house." Ca.s.sie sighed. Her voice is too low and shaking.

Ca.s.sie hasn't spoken anymore. The next noise Loura heard is a loud bang of a door that was forced to open.

"Quinn! Larry!" Loura shouts as loud as she could. She continued listening to the other line to monitor Ca.s.sie's situation.

"Quinn!"

At the moment, Quinn was still talking to Lily in the attic, where the guest room is placed. There is no way he could hear the call when he was on top of the third floor.
