Burn Me Once, Burn With Me novel Chapter 629

Even if his marriage to Ruby was over, Mira's existence was real. His identity as Mira's father could not be erased!

“Right, we still have Mira…” Cassian murmured, the negativity finally beginning to fade.

“But Mr. Veyne,” Bennett began, trying to keep his boss grounded, “while there's a glimmer of hope, we still need to figure out how to win Miss Ruby back.”

Cassian's brow furrowed. Realizing he had no idea what to do next, he obediently sat back down.

“Go on.”

Bennett stroked his chin. “Miss Ruby definitely resents you for listening to Gennifer and sending her to prison. But what's done is done; we can't change that. And she's very resistant to you now.”

At these words, the light in Cassian's eyes dimmed again.

That's right… she rejects me so strongly.

“But!”

Bennett's sudden turn of phrase pulled Cassian's attention back.

“Why don't we try to attract her all over again? Wasn't she the one who pursued you first? Plus, you now have the advantage of being Mira's father, which puts you ahead of all the other suitors buzzing around her!”

He looked at Cassian with hopeful eyes, though he still felt a little uncertain.

Honestly, if he were in Miss Ruby's shoes, he probably wouldn't forgive Mr. Veyne either…

But what could he do? He was a Veyne & Co. employee. Bennett cried silently to himself while waiting to cheer Cassian on.

To his surprise, Cassian was actually considering it. He propped his arms on the desk and slowly stroked his chin in thought.

Back then, he had only known that Ruby was interested in him. Just after graduation, his grandmother had suddenly forced him into an arranged marriage.

The bride was Ruby.
