Chapter 248 Cassandra glanced back and sure enough , it was Samuel Nolan .
A year had passed .
She had occasionally heard the news about him .
His companys stocks had plummeted , eventually leading to bankruptcy .
However , he hadnt wallowed in despair ; instead , hed left the Nolans to start his own business .
She wasnt sure how far hed gotten with it , though .
Shed thought their last meeting at the Nolans house a year ago was the final one , but here they were again .
Cassie , are you pregnant ? Samuels features had hardened over the past year .
The sign above Cassandras head read Obstetrics and Gynecology .
Life had a way of coming full circle .
A year ago , shed come to the hospital for a check up alone while Samuel accompanied Francesca .
A year later , she was back for another check up , this time with Trevor by her side while Samuel was all alone .
Cassandra wasnt sure if Samuel still harbored feelings for her , so she followed his assumption .
Yeah , I am , she replied .
Samuels body stiffened .
The smile on his face turned bitter .
Is that so ? Then … congratulations .
Trevor played along with Cassandras act .
Honey , the doctor said you shouldnt stand for too long .
We should head back .
Okay .
Cassandra and Trevor walked past Samuel hand in hand .
As they walked away , the warmth vanished from Samuels eyes , replaced by a chilling ruthlessness .
Cassie , you can only be mine .
How could you bear another mans children ? *** For the next few days , Cassandra was swamped with work .
One day , she had to go out for a business meeting .
Shed been feeling fatigued lately , so she fell asleep in the car .
When she woke up , she found herself on a ship .
Her limbs were bound and across from her sat Samuel .
Samuel , youre insane ! Kidnapping is a crime ! Samuels gaze darkened as he stood up and leaned in , attempting to kiss her .
Cassandra quickly turned her face away , dodging him .
His expression instantly turned icy as he gripped her chin .
Cassandra , you once promised me that you would love me for a lifetime .
You broke that promise and that makes me very , very angry .
Cassandra cursed him inwardly , but she tried to reason with him .
Samuel , were divorced .
If you let me go now , you can still turn back .
Cassie , without you , theres no turning back for me .
Id rather take you down with me .
Samuels eyes were both cold and crazed .
Cassandra was terrified .
Samuel had changed ; he was nothing like the man she knew .
He was a lunatic now .
She resorted to threats after realizing that reasoning was useless .
Samuel , Trevor will find out Im missing soon .
He has eyes everywhere in Yeslands .
You cant take me away .
!! Trevor was a born business genius .
In just one year , he solidified his position in Yeslands , surpassing the Barnes familys influence .
Samuel sneered , Cassie , were at sea .
If Trevor dares to make a move , Ill take you down with me .
If we cant be together in life , then well die together .
Cassandra felt a bone chilling fear .

She looked at him in disbelief .
Sam , what happened to you ? ! Samuel ran his fingers across her soft skin and whispered in her ear , Cassie , you left me no choice .
I took care of everyone who wronged you .
Francesca Stewart ? She died in prison .
My parents ? Theyve lost everything .
They used to mock you for being poor , now they cant even afford to eat .
I avenged you , Cassie .
You should forgive me now , shouldnt you ? I came all the way to Yeslands to start over with you , but youre pregnant .
How could you have another mans child ?
