Chapter 68
When Yohannes finally found Cassandra’s address by putting in his connections, he did not expect Cassandra to stay in such a
fine hotel.
The family walked to the front desk and asked the receptionist politely, “Hello, is there someone named Cassandra Yates living in
this hotel?”
The receptionist nodded slightly and replied politely, “I’m sorry, but due to customer privacy, we cannot disclose any customer’s
information. We apologize for any inconvenience we might cause you. I hope you can understand.”
“She’s my younger sister. Just tell me which room she lives in. Rest assured; I won’t make things difficult for you,” Yohannes said
politely, but his tone implied that he would not back down at all. He had to see Cassandra, or else his career would be ruined.
“In that case...” The receptionist paused. “You can give her a call then.”
Anyway, the staff had a rule against disclosing customer information without permission. If the matter were to be pursued, the
staff could not bear the responsibility.
Yulissa said, “Miss, she’s my elder sister. She had a little conflict with us and ran away from home. We wanted to find her, but
she didn’t want to see us. Could you please help us check which floor she is on?”
Yulissa’s words made the receptionist hesitate. She thought, ‘Is the customer really running away from home? But aren’t all the
people living on that floor the staff of Camille International Music Competition? Strangers are not allowed to go up there!‘
She then replied, “I’m sorry, but this is the customer’s privacy. We cannot reveal that information to you.”
In the end, the receptionist stuck to her professional ethic.
“You...” Yulissa did not expect the receptionist to be so disrespectful.
However, she still handed a gift box to the receptionist with a good temper. “Please do me a favor, miss.”
The receptionist did not even take a glance at the gift box but called the security guard through the walkie–talkie instead, “Guard,
there are three people making trouble here. Please bring them out immediately.”
Miranda got anxious. “What is the meaning of this? It’s fine that you don’t want to tell me where Cassandra is, but how dare you
call the security guard to chase us out! Where’s your manager? Let your manager out here and meet me!”
The receptionist replied calmly, “Madam, we’re at Spaunia. We don’t have any custom of Clusia here. This hotel has surveillance
coverage at every angle of the place. If I accept this gift, I will get a loss greater than the amount of this gift. Why should I accept
it?”
This was the only six–star hotel in Spaunia with very high welfare benefits, so no staff would want to ruin their good future for a
petty profit.
Then, along with the security guard, Cassandra also came in as she had planned to return to the hotel after finishing her
business.
She recalled that Kenneth seemed to mention that they would have dinner at night.
When Miranda saw Cassandra coming in, she ran to her immediately. “Cassandra, you damn brat! Where in the world have you
been? Why did you just come back now?”
With Miranda’s immediate questioning after coming up to her, Cassandra turned very annoyed, so she responded unhappily,
“This is where I live. What are you all doing here?”
Miranda shouted, “You damn brat! How dare you harm Yohannes like this? Are you even taking me seriously? You must
apologize to me!”
After hearing Miranda’s words, Cassandra felt that her plan to perish the Yates family must be put on the agenda. She could not
let them cause trouble before her anymore.
Cassandra said, “Mrs. Yates, after breaking off the parent–child relationship with me, we should treat each other like the other is
dead and not interfere with each other. Why do you always come to me every time something happens to your family?”
She thought, ‘They’re so ridiculous.’
Miranda shouted, “What are you talking about? I’m your mother. We can never sever our relationship in our entire life. Stop
talking about breaking off a relationship!”
To be honest, she regretted asking Benjamin to issue the relationship sever statement. Now that she learned that Cassandra
was both Elaine and Samantha, any one of her reputations could make the Yates family even more successful.
However, she blamed Cassandra for this, as she accused the latter of not wanting to make her identity clear in advance. Now
that so many misunderstandings happened, Miranda could care less about the Yates family.
Cassandra said, “Seriously, if all of you have all the good and bad things in the world, what need is there for justice? If you’re
here just to say such nonsense, please leave.”
The security guard was here anyway, so the nonsensical people could be taken out.
Yohannes interrupted, “Cassandra, I’m here to apologize to you. Mr. Sullivan said he would not ban me only if he obtained your
permission not to...”
Cassandra remained silent.
She thought, ‘If someone asked what speechlessness is, my reaction would be that.’
“Mr. Yates, is that your way of apologizing with that kind of attitude? I really have no comment for it,” said Cassandra.
She thought, ‘Just a sentence of “I’m here to apologize to you“? He considers that an apology?‘
“What else do you want?” Yohannes did not want to bow to his younger sister. He just could not do so.
“I don’t want anything. I just want you to get the punishment you deserve.” She then thought, ‘If an apology is gonna solve
everything, why do we even need the police?‘
Yohannes suggested, “Cassandra, let’s be reasonable. How about this? If you call Mr. Sullivan to deal with my affairs, I will ask
Dad and Mom to take you home personally and let you become the eldest daughter of the Yates family.”
He thought that the stated condition was already considered very tempting for Cassandra, as she wanted to attract their parents‘
attention anyway, so it would be an honor if they took her home in person.
‘Fight fire with fire, so what should I do to deal with naive people? A naive person like Yohannes is really stupid. After having the
thought, Cassandra replied, “Mr. Yates, if you haven’t had the chance to access the internet, why don’t you go online and check
out what everyone is discussing before you suggest anything? In other words, is the Yates family full of gold? With my status as
Samantha, do you think your family is worth my time?”
Yohannes stared at Cassandra with widened eyes.
He thought, ‘What’s wrong with her? Why would she say such things? Isn’t she...‘
“You all don’t have to waste your energy on me. You should bear the responsibility if you do something wrong. It’s animal
behavior to evade responsibility. I will definitely hold you and Yulissa accountable! Cassandra ignored them and walked past
them to the front desk
She told the receptionist, Please record this down. If these three people or anyone from the Yates family come to me in the
future, no need to ask for me at all. Just let the security guards take them away!”
“Cassandra, are you still human? Yohannes is only 22 years old. Can you bear to see his future getting ruined like this?”
Miranda’s voice resonated throughout the hall, attracting attention.
Cassandra countered, “Did I let him plagiarize the music score? Did I give it to him? Did I let him use it in the competition? Didn’t
Marcus give him a chance? Yohannes insisted that the score was his original work. He insisted on trusting that idiot Yulissa and
would believe whatever she said. Now you’re saying I ruined him. Mrs. Yates, don’t you think you are hilarious? Who do you
think caused him to end up in such a state? It was all because of Yulissa. Did you ask what she was looking for when she went
to my room? Why did she take the score away? Why did she want to give it to Yohannes? Did she ask for my opinion when she
gave it to him?”
She continued, “When something has gone wrong now, you want me to forgive all of you. Do you think I’m a saint to serve your
family personally? Let’s take a step back and consider the matter. Even if I’m not Samantha, the piece and music score don’t
belong to Yohannes or Yulissa. Yohannes played it in public and even marked it as his original work Yet, when you all find out the
truth afterward, you want me to give you the copyright. Do you think it’s even possible?”
“If I hadn’t had Samantha’s status, you might have squeezed me to death here, right? So, don’t you pretend to have a deep
mother–daughter and sibling bond right before me. It’s just disgusting!” she finally shouted.
