Love Story6 - Chapter 8

On the night of Lysander's birthday, the gift I bought in Paris was delivered to him through a friend.

Cassius sat on the sofa smoking, half of the alcohol in front of him already gone.

The gift for Lysander was chosen together by Darius and me.

It was a pair of vintage cufflinks from a high-end brand he really liked.

"These cufflinks are quite exquisite."

Lysander smiled a bit stiffly, watching Cassius's expression carefully and hurriedly asked his girlfriend to put them away.

"Bring them here." Cassius suddenly spoke up.

Lysander was startled but didn't dare say much, quickly handing over the box.

Cassius looked at the pair of cufflinks.

The brand's logo was subtle, not eye-catching, but Cassius stared at it for quite a while.

"Put it away," he closed the box and pushed it aside.

Lysander breathed a huge sigh of relief and quickly reached out to take it, But Cassius suddenly grabbed the empty bottle in front of him and smashed it violently on the coffee table. Shards of glass scattered everywhere, and a long gash appeared on the back of his hand, instantly drawing blood.

The private room immediately descended into chaos.

"What's wrong now, why did he suddenly get angry?"

"That's a bad cut, the bleeding won't stop. We should hurry to the hospital..."

Cassius stood there, motionless, his face dark and full of resentment.

"Everly has never bought anything from this brand before." His voice was low, hoarse, and gloomy.

Lysander quickly smiled and said, "That's nothing, Everly probably just picked it randomly."

"It's not like your birthday, where Everly would start thinking about what to get you half a year in advance."

"Yeah, Cassius, we all know how much Everly cares about you.

Her love for you are stronger than all of us combined. Everyone knows how much Everly values and cherishes you." Hearing this, Cassius let out a cold laugh: "She cares about me?"

The noisy crowd inexplicably fell silent bit by bit.

"Cassius... why don't I give Everly a call?

"We should deal with that wound first..."

Lysander suddenly gathered his courage and took out his phone, snapping a picture of Cassius's lacerated hand. Then he directly sent it to Everly via WhatsApp.

Cassius didn't stop him, perhaps because Lysander's actions were too quick for him to intervene.
