Extra 35: Total Break

Elliot was furious to see Roger and his daughter at the party.

"Why did you hurt my daughter?" Roger hadn't recognized James and just wanted to help his princess. Who do you think you are...?" Then he saw James and, how could he not recognize him? He was Roger's spitting image, giving the latter the same hateful look Roger himself wore.

"I should ask you the same thing, sir. Who do you think you are, crashing a private event?" James asked.

Roger was about to respond, but

"What's the meaning of this?" George asked, approaching them.

"Grandpa, they attacked me, and Cassandra started to say.

"Miss, don't call my grandpa 'Grandpa," declared Howard.

"Tom, call security," Eric ordered. "Get these two out of the party."

Among the guests, a blond young man recognized Cassandra but didn't go to help her because his parents didn't allow it. They didn't want to end up caught in the middle of the problem and become collateral damage, nor did they want to fall out with these influential families.

"And who do you think you are to say we should be thrown out?" Cassandra asked. "This is a party my grandfather threw for me, isn't it?"

"Girl, I think you're not right in the head, but we three organized this party to celebrate our grandsons, James and Howard," Nicholas declared. "This has nothing to do with you because we don't even know you." "What..." Cassandra said, confused.

"And Roger, don't you remember what I told you? We're not family anymore," Elliot declared. "So how dare you show up to a party where you weren't even invited?"

"But Uncle, this party is to celebrate my engagement, isn't it?"

"We didn't even know you were engaged," Erika said.

"You know, I feel sorry for the poor guy who proposed to you," Elizabeth remarked, glaring at Cassandra as she pulled away a little from her brother's embrace

"What did you just say?" Cassandra hissed through gritted teeth.

"Hey, James, keep your sister quiet because she has no say in this place," Roger said arrogantly.

"You will respect my daughter," Jayden declared, stepping closer to his children.

"And I'm recording this, so either leave or face the consequences," Nicole added.

Roger and his daughter were getting anxious, realizing that nobody was on their side. Cassandra was scared, noticing that no one was coming to her defense, so she began searching for her fiancé with her eyes. "But Grandpa... this party is for my engagement.... that's why you invited my fiancé, right?" she said, trying to replace support from George.

"Your fiancé?" George asked. "I didn't know we invited him. Who is he?"

"Well, he's... ah, there you are, darling!" She ran excitedly to fetch him, taking his hand to lead him to George so she could introduce him. "Come on, honey. "Cassandra, no..." he said, distressed and trying to resist, but he ended up being dragged by her.

"I'll introduce you to my family," she said excitedly, bringing him to stand before the others.

"Rachael's brother? Howard asked, recognizing him.

"Uh... hi, little bro," he greeted awkwardly, having had no idea of that connection until now, and realizing his sister looked worried since she was dating Howard.

"Little bro?" Cassandra asked, looking from her fiancé to Howard.

"Looks like we'll need to have a talk later, son," Erika said, frowning as she stood beside her son..

Cassandra's fiance looked worried about those words, knowing his little sister had now lost her boyfriend.

*Kid, let me give you a piece of advice: open your eyes and think hard about what you're doing, because that family is nothing but trouble and only cares about money and status," Jayden warned. Rachael's brother, Brandon seemed slightly more concerned hearing those words.

"Honestly, I don't care what you do or don't do," George said. "Just leave already, because you're ruining the mood of the party."

hat... are you really going to keep this up?" Roger looked at his father in disbelief.

"Grandpa hasn't forgotten how you attacked him... do you seriously think everything's fine without you ever apologizing to him?" Howard said angrily, remembering how that incident had traumatized him as a child. "That's right, so please just leave and stop harassing me," George requested again.

Roger was about to speak, seeing his father looking tired and sad, but the guards grabbed him and forced him to leave.

The three of them were thrown out, and to their misfortune, Brandon's family was also asked to leave.

They were all shoved and tossed out.

"Damn it..." Cassandra muttered, but then she was slapped in the face. "Ow!" she yelped, seeing that it was her future mother-in-law who had hit her and was now glaring furiously at her.

"You stupid girl! Do you know what you've done?"

"Mother-in-law, why

"How dare you lay a hand on my daughter?" Roger demanded.

"The same way you just ruined everything for us," declared Brandon's father. "My daughter had a bright future alongside the heir to the Peterson Group... but now it's obvious they'll force Howard to break up with my daughter." "Howard's going to hate me because of you!" Rachael complained.

"Cassandra, it's best if we break up," Brandon said.

"What..." Cassandra was hurt now.

"Please give me back the ring." Brandon said, moving closer to take it back. "It's best if we go our separate ways."

"Brandon, wait... no... Despite Cassandra's screams, what would have been her family turned and walked away, abandoning her.

She looked at her father and saw that he was

"What have I done..." Roger whispered in fear.

"Dad?"

in bad shape too, affected by what had just happened.

"Don't touch me," Roger said, pulling away, seeing his father so fragile and wounded shook him to his

core.

It made him think about everything that had happened in his life... and sadly, he now understood that he had screwed up everything... from his relationship with his little brother to his first marriage... to his son. Thinking of James, he saw his reflection and noticed that James was looking at him with hatred and disdain the same way Roger had once looked at him. Now he understood everything valuable he had lost. Chapter 346
