The lady decided to dump the guy but instead of finding an uncaring boyfriend she found happiness and the smile she had lost due to that boy.” said Cassie.
Turns out the world isn't as cruel as we make it out to be. Today Cassie Jones has opened everyone's eyes and showed there is still warm hearted people in this world who are willing to help the hurt souls of others. Happiness is always there within reach you just have to believe in
