Chapter 465

Cassandra looked at Omar, feigning sorrow. “Cassidy's ill. She used to support and respect you a lot. Since you don’t want tosave her, | guess there’s nothing | can do.”

Omar was lost for words.

‘Playing the victim? What a nice trick!

‘However, since it was Cassidy, I’d like to offer a hand.’

So he asked, “Tell me about her.”

He didn’t want Cassandra to lose any of her true friends.

Cassandra shared Omar Cassidy's situation, Omar was also shocked at the severity.

“Do you need me to help?”

“It's a bit tricky but not too difficult. We're just short of a few herbs...” Cassandra’s intentions were abundantly clear.Omar got the point.

“What do you need?” Omar resigned himself to his fate, figuring that offering willingly was a far better option than being outrightrobbed.

Cassandra listed five names. Giving away each one of them would make Omar’s heart bleed.

He thought, ‘The cunning girl deliberately chose the rarest ones!

‘Can she be even more “considerate“?*

“Wait here,” Omar said and reluctantly went to his pharmacy and cut a bit of each herb Cassandra requested, his heart bleeding.While doing this, he pondered, ‘Hopefully, it would be enough.’

Soon, Omar returned with the herbs, “Take these and go back quickly.”

“There’s no rush. Cassidy just stopped her previous medication today. She needs to stop for three days before we can start thenew treatment. I'll go back tomorrow.” Cassandra yawned after insisting on staying here.

“I'll go see Grandma and then head to bed,” she added, outlining her plans before promptly heading out with Kenneth, makingsure to secure the herbs.

Since it all went surprisingly smoothly, with the rare herbs in hand, she adjusted her plan and decided to lighten4/4

Chapter 465

Omar's collection only “a bit” that night.

Omar watched Cassandra’s departing figure, puzzled, ‘Is she really going to stay?

Later that night, Omar was asleep when Cassandra suddenly got up, startling Kenneth.

He thought, ‘Didn’t we get the herbs already? Then we can just leave tomorrow. What she’s planning now?“Kenneth, grab the stuff. We’re heading home tonight,” Cassandra whispered as if about to commit theft.“Huh? Why the rush?” Kenneth was a little confused.

“Perfect timing for a getaway.” She knew too well that Omar was a heavy sleeper, now was their best chance to raid his treasuretrove.

Kenneth was stunned, ‘What, a getaway?

‘Is she planning to grab those herbs right now?*

Without a second thought, Kenneth sent a message to Yannick. And soon three people were mobilized, entering Omar's house.Cassandra and Kenneth quietly went downstairs and sneaked into Omar's pharmacy.

Familiar with the layout, Cassandra opened the treasure cabinet, filled with Omar’s prized herbs, some exclusive to hiscollection.

With three extra pairs of hands, they managed to take a significant amount.

As they left, Cassandra told Ethan, “You’re good with psychological support. If the Omar faints from shock tomorrow, call me!”Then, Kenneth drove them away.

The next day, Omar found the silence in the house unsettling. And he noticed that the door of Cassandra’s roomwas open.

He immediately knew that something was amiss.

He could barely contain his unease. ‘My herbs! My treasure!!

Rushing to his pharmacy, the sight nearly made him faint, but Ethan caught him in time.

Chapter 465

Omar asked in shock, “Who are you? Why are you here?”

“I'm here to look after you, as ordered by Mr. Zelinski,” Ethan said this as if Kenneth was the culprit.

‘Mr. Zelinski? Is he one of Kenneth’s men?*

The mention of Kenneth irritated Omar even more.

‘This Mr. Zelinski is literally a bandit! All my treasures are gone now. It would be better to kill me!*

“Go to ask your Mr. Zelinski to give my herbs back!” Omar was beyond furious.

He knew that Cassandra would definitely take the herbs, but he didn’t expect that she would rob him of a significant portion of hiscollection.

’40%, Cassandra! Did you think you're entitled to a share of my stock? That's too much!"

“Mr. Mccall, calm down. Whatever Mr. Zelinski took is for a good reason. After all, he’s sort of your son-in-law,” Ethan tried tosoothe him, but to no avail.

“Humph, a good reason? It’s for Cassandra! He knows nothing about traditional medicine. Cassandra is the one who covets mycollection.”

He mused, ‘What Mr. Zelinski? I’m not a fool. It must be Cassandra who planned all this. No one except her has the ability to pickthose herbs that are mutually complementary!

‘No, | can’t just sit idly by. | need to implement better security measures specifically targeted at Cassandra!"Back at Pinehart Mansion, Cassandra was thrilled.

It was almost dawn. Having secured her coveted herbs, Cassandra, who was too excited to sleep, dived into herlad.

After categorizing and experimenting with them, she emerged, visibly pleased.

“Happy?” Kenneth asked.

“Yeah, these are all mine now. I'd be crazy not to be happy.” She had been eyeing these for so long, and now that they werefinally hers, she couldn't help but revel in the joy.

“As long as you're happy.” Kenneth’slips curled into a sly smile, hig-eyesgleami witty raisctisP hinting, “Nowthatthe wife is happy, shouldn't thehusband get a little happiness too?”The content is on Ebookex.Org!

Cassandra found herself cradling inKenneth’s arms, and the latter said, “Iknow how quickly you work ywyiftryourmedici sbaseidyhe s to stop heredibet a for three days, and youneed to check on her again in oneday. There’s still plenty of time. I’vebeen your accomplice in crime, isn't itonly fair to reward your husband?”The content is on Ebookex.Org!

Kenneth grinned cunningly. He was running out of time, with only two days left before his intense training session began, whichhe would also attend. Soon, he’d have to live like a monk.

Failing to seize this moment would be a disservice to himself.

After a moment's thought, Cassandra, wrapping her arms around his neck, gave him a quick peck on the lips. “Is this enough?”“Far from enough.” He would not be satisfied by a kiss.

Kenneth carried Cassandra back to the bedroom. The latter's eyes were wide open out of embarrassment.

“Don't be naughty. It’s still daytime. Not now.”

Even with the curtains drawn, the sunlight could seep through. Thinking of what would happen next, she blushed

as red as a rose.

Kenneth’s bold moves and unwavering gaze spoke of a desire.
