Eighteen Again: The CEO's Wife was a Delinquent

In all actuality, Cassidy has been seeing Adrian as some sort of a demon lord with how powerful he is.

He can\'t be a god since he\'s too mean to be someone that holy, so she just chose to label him as the opposite. He\'s still powerful nevertheless. She\'s finally more than convinced by that notion after hearing from the houseworkers themselves. ​​

It just happened that while they\'re still touring around the mansion, the head housemaid and other maids had given Cassidy an overview of just how capable and powerful Adrian was. Though Charles already did explain most of what they said back at the hospital before, they still dropped some things that shook her to the core -

And many of those were these detailed moments when Adrian had ordered to kick Cassidy out of the house a number of times in the past.

Most of the causes were when she\'s falling short of the company\'s expectations and failing to meet ends at work, but sometimes, there wasn\'t any reason at all. What\'s more, he would just merely send a message about this instead of personally ordering the houseworkers, which only showed just how much he couldn\'t care less about her well-being.

After hearing all these, Cassidy swore she got angry at her adult self right then. She couldn\'t believe how dumb she was to stay with this kind of man for five whole years.

"Punish? You\'re too old to learn from something like that. You ought to reflect on what you did and behave yourself already..." Adrian trailed off before rubbing one of his temples as if getting a headache.

"I won\'t fire anyone. Just don\'t cause troubles anymore and start acting matured again."

Cassidy only heaves a miffed sigh at this, already getting tired of being told to change back to how she used to be. She knows for herself that this is her true nature, and she never wants to change who she is just to please people.

Even though her adult self ended up doing the complete opposite of that, she still can\'t find anything that is worth turning over a new leaf for. Then again, she still can\'t recall why she changed that much in the first place.

"Listen, Eleanor..." Adrian sighed before sitting on the side of his bed, his back bent a little in exhaustion.

"Try to get along with me for now, okay? Dr. Gilmore said that there\'s still a chance that your memories will return, so for the meantime-"

"What if they don\'t return anymore...?" Cassidy cut him off, lifting a brow and puffing her chest out.

"What are you gonna do? Throw me out for real this time?"

"Huh? What?"

"Or better yet, just file a divorce or something. I\'m not clinging onto you anymore nor am I leeching off. I don\'t need you and you don\'t need me... Then, let\'s divorce."

Adrian was thunderstruck at that very moment.

He\'s benumbed even.

The subject of divorce was the least that he expected to hear from Cassidy.

After all, he knew she loved him - so, so much that he couldn\'t even imagine to what degree exactly. He wasn\'t just assuming things when he said that, especially since she never stopped displaying her affection no matter how rough things became for her nor how much he kept responding indifferently.

Right now, though, Cassidy had straight up slapped divorce on his face, making Adrian realize the true gravity of this amnesia of hers.
