How Death Became My Rebirth by Evelyn Florence

Chapter 314
“Mr. Gomez, you flattere. It's Drieso that gains strength with Modern Beacon
Synergy’s presence,” Kenneth eplied. His words were polite but also reflected
reality.
Modern Beacon Synergy was indeed a formidable player. Kenneth had built upon
the foundation of the Zelinski Group to grow it into the power it was currently.
The elusive founder of Modern Beacon Synergy was said to have started from
scratch in his youth. Kenneth naturally respected such an accomplishment.
Timothy and Cyrus, the current president and vice president of Modern Beacon
Synergy, were talents discovered by the company’s founder. Any previous
friction. between Kenneth and Cyrus was chalked up to misunderstandings,
thankfully with no lasting damage, as any harm might have caused Cassandra to
resent Kenneth.
“Ms. Yates, you look stunning!” Timothy said, his compliment reflecting genuine
admiration.
“Mr. Gomez, you're flattering me,” Cassandra replied coldly.
Emma, witnessing this exchange, was mad with jealousy.
Emma had already learned that the man with Cassandra was Kenneth. Helen
had mentioned to Emma that Kenneth was the man Richard intended to
introduce to her. Emma thought, “Kenneth is supposed to be mine, the best man
in the world. How dare Cassandra get close to him!
She thought, “How shameless!
“She’s even playing games with Timothy and Cyrus.
“All her aloofness at school must be an act. Bitch!"
Seeing Cassandra, Sofia and Cassidy couldn't resist rushing up exclaiming,
“Look! Our idol is there! That's fantastic!”
Over time, it became apparent that Sofia was the lively one, not Cassidy, who
seemed tame as a kitten around Cassandra.
“Cassie, you're here too! If I had known earlier, we could have come together,”
Cassidy said, sticking close to Cassandra but stopping short of enveloping her in

Kenneth found himself edged out of his spot as the girls descended on
Cassandra, causing him to involuntarily step to the side.

Keeping his distance from other women was instinctive. By the time he realized,
reclaiming his place by Cassandra's side was no longer an option.
Cassandra smiled at the girls and said, “I had no idea you were coming. Ken and
I had planned to attend together.”
Cassandra's intimate way of referring to Kenneth immediately stiffened the smile
on Cyrus's face.
For Timothy and Cyrus, it was a shock to hear someone address Kenneth sof
intimately. To the rest of the attendees, it was just as surprising. They all
wondered who this person was, to so boldly use Kenneth’s nickname.
Previously, women who dared call Kenneth by his first name were shown the
door. But here, Cassandra's familiar address went unchallenged, and to
everyone's astonishment, it was met with Kenneth’s radiant smile.
Unbelievable!
Kenneth was clearly pleased being called “Ken’ by Cassandra, his earlier
displeasure in the car vanishing in an instant.
Timothy felt a chill of repulsion at the sweetness displayed and promptly
suggested they help themselves.
After everyone dispersed, several executives approached Kenneth to greet him
and tried to discuss potential cooperation.
Cassandra murmured an excuse to Kenneth before she wandered off. She
aimed to reconnect with Sofia but was abruptly stopped in her tracks by Emma.
“Cassandra, is this really a place for someone like you? Or did you seduce Mr.
Zelinski into bringing you?” challenged Emma.
Cassandra frowned, tired of Emma's consistent targeting wherever she went.
She responded coolly, “I don’t see what's so significant about this gala. If you're
allowed. to be here, what stops me? And even if I was brought here by Kenneth,
it's none of your business, is it?”

Emma, furious, thought, How can this not concern me? Mr. Zelinski is my future
boyfriend, not someone to be seen with that bitch!”

“It seems you're nothing without a man, isn’t that right? Pretending to be aloof
and pure at school, yet here you an, so bitchy, Emma accused. “You should know
Mr. Zelinski is the man my grandfather is introducing to me, and he will be my
boyfriend. You'd do well to steer clear of him. Did you understand that?”
Cassandra slightly smirked, thinking Emma had apparently not learned her
lesson from their last encounter in the principal's office. Emma did not remember
Kenneth’s warning there.
Really? Maybe I should call Ken over to acquaint himself with his “future
girlfriend,” Cassandra said mockingly.
Emma's gaze flickered with insecurity, yet she maintained a tough front while
looking at Cassandra. “Cut the crap. Once my grandfather connects me with Mr.
Zelinski, you'll be sidelined!”
Emma's grandfather was a retired high-ranking military commander, and she
was convinced Kenneth would favor her.
“So, you're dreaming now, is that it?” Cassandra said with a sigh. She had seen
dreamers before, but never one quite so deluded.
“What are you saying? I'll break your face!” Emma screamed, stepping forward,
“Bitch, how dare you lure in Mr. Zelinski?”
Her hand shot out to slap Cassandra, but it was abruptly seized. A crisp slap
echoed
-smack!
“Ouch!” Emma was slapped. Her eyes reddened with fury, and she glared at
Cassandra with murderous intent, as if she wished she could kill her.
Helen rushed to Emma's side, shielding her and demanding furiously,
“Cassandra, how dare you strike my daughter?”
“So she’s allowed to strike and I can’t defend myself?” Cassandra's cold laugh
conveyed her contempt.

Ever since the incident with Miranda, Cassandra wasn’t going to let anyone lay a
finger on her.
When it came to a slap—off, Cassandra was unmatched.
Furious, Helen called out to her father-in-law. “Father, come quickly! Someone
has struck your granddaughter!”
Emma was pampered growing up and Richard favored her the most. Hearing his
granddaughter had been hit, Richard quickly approached them.
“What's going on here?” Richard saw the slap mark on Emma's face, and his
expression darkened as he demanded in a stern voice.
