Chapter 270: Damage Done
Despite looking very good for her age, a fact that still got her many a compliment. Cassandra Haven was no spring chicken. She had been around for a long time, and in all her years she had met many different types of gold diggers. Even from an early age. Cassandra had had brushes with gold diggers.
From the young women who used to attend all of the parties that her parents threw. Most of them attempting to bag a rich man. To the ones who had tried to weasel their way into Cassandra’s marriage. Failing to steal away her Jasper( her man too loyal to be swayed).
But she had to admit, in her humble opinion, Emily Molson was one of the most dangerous gold diggers out there. Cassandra had met a few like her, and she knew that out of all the others.
Women like Emily Molson, were the ones that needed to be taken care of fast. A greedy gold digger with their eyes on the money was easy enough. You offer them a bit of cash, and they are on their way. A dumb gold digger who had no idea how they had actually managed to get where they were, was also easy to get rid of. A few threats here and there, and those girls were packing so fast. By the time you blinked. It was almost as though they had never been there.
Power hungry gold diggers were also very easy to get rid of. Just give them a position someplace far, far away. Somewhere where they could rule their own little kingdom, and never feel the need to come back.
That was what it took for most gold diggers. But Emily Molson was a different kind of gold digger.
She was the kind that was so dedicated to her craft. That she had actually convinced herself that her feelings were genuine. That she cared about Cassandra’s son.
"I want you to leave my son alone, break up with him and stop the nonsense that you are doing," Cassandra had told her point blank, and Emily Molson had looked her right in the eyes.
"Mrs Haven, I respect your standing and I also respect the fact that you are Derek’s mother. But you have no right to interfere in his life, nor in mine. I will not be breaking up with your son," Those had been Emily’s exact words when Cassandra had gone straight to the point and had told her to end things with her son.
They had argued for close to an hour, until Cassandra had finally just decided to grab a piece of paper and write a number on it. Which brought them to where they were in that moment.
"Break up with him and this amount will be in your bank account, before you can even finish the conversation," Emily looked at the paper once. No interest in her at all, no widening of the eyes, no shocked gasp. She just glanced briefly, then looked back up at Cassandra.
