Kennard continued, “You like Carlos so much!”

“Cassie, people should be more selfish and have more tricks up their sleeves! For your own sake, for the sake of getting Carlos’ love, there’s nothing wrong with telling a white lie.”

“You were forced to do it!”

“After all, if I didn’t do it, you and Carlos would have ended a long time ago.”

Cassie was successfully brainwashed by Kennard.

She had really fallen in love with Carlos. She wanted to stay with Carlos forever and grow old together! She could only continue lying like this for the time being.

Then, she would work hard.

She would make herself pregnant with Carlos’ child and give him a son!

More importantly, she would make Carlos fall in love with her!

Before all of this could happen…

Time flew by.

In the blink of an eye, six years had passed.

At this time, the child between Carlos and Cassie, Leonard, was already six years old.

Cassie was clearly a girl, but she could only exist in the Reeves family as a boy. She was the heir of the Reeves family and shouldered all the responsibilities that she should not have!

During these six years, Cassie had been working very hard.

She had been working hard to get along with Carlos. She had been working hard to nurture her body. She wanted to have another child. It would be best if she were the heir that the Reeves family needed.

However, things did not go as planned.

In these six years, through Cassie’s disdainful efforts, through her painstaking efforts, and after racking her brains to seduce Carlos, Carlos had indeed treated Cassie differently.

Carlos was very gentle, very considerate, and also dutifully acted as a good husband and a good father.

In front of others and behind others, Carlos was very protective of Cassie.

As long as Carlos was around, even Joyce would not be able to bully Cassie in the slightest! Every time, Carlos would always help Cassie regain her dignity.

Everything seemed to be fine.

Cassie seemed to be really happy!

However, was she really happy?

Only Cassie knew! For so many years, she had never gotten what she wanted, and Carlos still did not love her! At least, in Cassie’s eyes, Carlos did not like her at all.

In the past six years, Cassie had been working very hard, but she had never been able to get pregnant as she had hoped.

Cassie had already taken good care of her severely damaged body after giving birth to a child prematurely. Normally, she should be able to conceive a child without any problems.

Perhaps she was under too much pressure?

The more she wanted to conceive a child, the more she was worried that it would not be a son.

She had lied for six years, six whole years!

Every time she saw Leonard in a boy’s clothes, bearing her lies and living as the heir of the Reeves family.

She had to suppress her nature. She could not wear beautiful dresses or play with dolls. She could only have hobbies that only little boys could have.

Leonard was sensible. She knew that her mother was in a difficult position.

Leonard never said anything, she never complained, and she didn’t even ask.

She was so obedient and sensible!

She even comforted Cassie, “Mommy, I don’t like those flashy and useless things. I’m fine the way I am now.”

“Leonard is your little man!”

“I’m the heir of the Reeves family. I’m going to take over everything in the Reeves family from now on. I’m going to protect mommy so that she will never be bullied by anyone, not even daddy!”

Because of all this, the pressure in Cassie’s heart was immense.

She felt that if this continued, sooner or later, the immense pressure in her heart would make her unable to bear it. She would really drive herself crazy!

Then, at this moment.

Just as Cassie was about to be unable to bear it any longer, Joyce stopped Cassie at the Reeves family’s villa all of a sudden on an afternoon.

She laughed mockingly, “Cassie, your boldness has really refreshed my understanding of you, time and time again! You’re really not afraid of death!”

“Seven years ago, you dared to climb into my brother-in-law’s bed, and you dared to come to grandfather by yourself, saying that you were pregnant with brother-in-law’s child.”

“I thought you were brave enough!”

Cassie frowned.

She couldn’t be bothered with Joyce. “Just say what you want to say. Don’t be so weird here. I don’t have time to listen to your nonsense!”

Joyce sneered!

She was so jealous that she looked at Cassie fiercely. “You’re about to die, but you’re still so powerful! Cassie, don’t think that what you’ve done will never be exposed!” Joyce asked, “You know better than anyone whether Leonard is a boy or a girl.’

Cassie was stunned.

A bad premonition arose in her heart.

At this moment, Joyce continued with a cold smile, “In order to protect your identity as the young lady of the Reeves family, you’ve been lying to grandfather and my brother-in-law for six years!”

“Cassie, didn’t you think that someone would expose everything one day? I saw with my own eyes that Leonard is a girl!”

As expected, the truth could not be hidden anymore!

However, it was better this way.

Now that the truth had been exposed and people knew about Cassie, apart from the initial shock, Cassie did not feel any fear or panic.

On the contrary, she felt relieved and relaxed.

Cassie said nonchalantly, “Well, if you know, then you’ll know.”

She looked at Cassie indifferently, “So what are you going to do? Are you going to expose everything and tell Carlos and grandpa the truth?” Joyce had not expected such a situation.

Cassie’s reaction was really out of her expectations!

Joyce asked, “Aren’t you afraid?”

Cassie replied indifferently, “What’s the use of me being afraid? Since you already know, it’s time for everyone to know about this matter.”

If she wanted to expose everything and report it to Carlos and grandfather, then there was no need for her to appear in front of Cassie at this moment.

It was enough to confront her and talk about this.

Joyce’s purpose was not to expose her!

But..

With a cold smile, Joyce said, “Ha! Let Leonard, who should be the young lady of the Reeves family, who should be free from worry and enjoy life, be the heir of the Reeves family.”

“Let her live as a boy, as the heir of the Reeves family, and bear the consequences of your lies. How can you be so cruel as a mother?”

Cassie was speechless.

She had indeed let Leonard down. She was not qualified to be a mother at all!.
