At this moment, Joyce continued to speak, “Moreover, won’t your conscience be reprimanded?”

“Grandfather wanted a successor to the Reeves family so badly! You actually had the heart to let an old man mistakenly think that Leonard was the one for six whole years!”

“You hid such a big matter from my brother-in-law and grandfather. How could you have the nerve to do this? How could you dare to do this? Aren’t you afraid that they’ll be sad?”

Cassie did not explain.

Her cold eyes looked at Joyce.

With a clear stance, she told Joyce, “Regarding Leonard’s matter, I do owe Carlos and grandfather an explanation. But what has it got to do with you?”

“Cassie, you are not a member of the Reeves family!”

After saying this, Cassie turned around and was about to leave.

“Stop right there!” Joyce shouted.

She walked over in a few steps and stood in front of Cassie. “We are already at the end of our lives. Can you please put away your arrogance and stop being so stubborn?”

“If all of this were to be found out, would grandfather let you off? Or do you think that my brother-in-law would let you off easily?”

Cassie did not mind.

She was very calm and asked in return, “So what if they did not?”

In fact, she should have faced this matter a long time ago. Now that Joyce knew about it, soon it would be grandpa and Carlos’ turn. What was there to be afraid of about her?

She could just leave it to them to deal with her!

Cassie was about to leave again.

Joyce said, “I will not tell my brother-in-law and Grandpa!”

Cassie raised her eyebrows.

How could such a good thing happen in this world? Joyce had wished that she would be unlucky enough to be kicked out of the Reeves family by Carlos and grandpa.

How could she not tell them?

If something went wrong, something must have happened! As expected!

Joyce continued, “As long as you take Leonard and leave! Leave Carlos, leave the Reeves family, and never show your face again!”

“Cassie, I’m doing this for your own good.”

Joyce used the excuse that she was doing this for Cassie as she smiled and continued, “Now, only I know everything, and it hasn’t been exposed yet.”

“Cassie, you still have a chance to leave!”

In order to make Cassie leave obediently, Joyce continued, “Now you still have a chance to leave, and it’s with your daughter!”

“But if we wait until this matter is exposed…”

Joyce deliberately dragged out the last syllable.

She gave Cassie time to imagine the outcome for herself.

Then, she continued, “When that time comes, Carlos and my grandfather will definitely not let you off. They will definitely punish you!”

“When that time comes, it won’t be as simple as being chased out of the Reeves family!”

“I feel that when that time comes, you definitely won’t have the chance to take away Leonard!

Moreover, you might never have the chance to see her again in your entire life!”

“You lied to the heavens, and your character isn’t good enough! How could grandfather and Carlos let Leonard continue to acknowledge a person like you as a mother?”

Cassie frowned.

She could bear all the consequences.

However, if she were to be separated from Leonard, she would never see her again.

Cassie thought for a moment. She could not bear such a thing!

Joyce smiled.

It seemed that she had seen through Cassie’s thoughts and knew that her words had worked.

So she continued, “Now I’m giving you a chance. If I don’t expose evenrthing, you can still take your daughter and leave.”

“If you leave, my brother-in-law and grandfather won’t punish you for this.”

“If you feel guilty, you can leave a letter for my brother-in-law before you leave.”

“When the time comes, you have to be honest with my brother-in-law. You have to tell him the truth! Otherwise, my brother-in-law will look for you and your daughter!”

This was Joyce’s true purpose.

She wanted Cassie to take the child away from Carlos secretly, and she wanted Cassie to admit it personally.

When the time came, Carlos would be so angry that he would definitely stop looking for Cassie.

Joyce was very pleased with herself.

She thought that as long as she could get rid of Cassie, it would be enough.

At that time, even if her brother-in-law really fell in love with this woman, Cassie would have quietly left and gone to a place where no one could find her.

However, Joyce had misjudged Cassie’s character.

With Cassie’s stubbornness and pride, how could her intelligence be at the mercy of Joyce? How could she let Joyce have his way?

Cassie curled her lips into a smile.

The smile was cold and extremely mocking.

As she smiled, Cassie said, “I really can’t leave my daughter. I definitely can’t bear to be separated from my daughter and never see her again!”

“But I’m sure that Carlos is not that kind of person!”

Cassie had been Carlos’s wife for seven years now. She understood Carlos. Although he might not love her, he was definitely not a heartless and ruthless person.

She was very sure!

She also told Joyce, “I lied to him about Leonard. Maybe he’ll be very angry and even want to strangle me.”

“But I know that he would never do anything that would prevent me from seeing my daughter!”

“And if grandpa wants to punish me, he’ll definitely stand up for me. He won’t let grandfather punish me too harshly.”

Even if it were just for Leonard’s sake, Carlos would never do anything to prevent her from seeing Leonard, or to make her miserable!

Cassie’s smile became even more sarcastic.

She told Joyce, “I’m sorry, but I’m afraid your wishful thinking is going to fail. Whether you expose me or not, I’m not going to leave quietly!”

Joyce was filled with hatred.

She gritted her teeth, “Are you sure you really know my brother-in-law?”

Cassie nodded.

She said with certainty, “Yes, he’s my husband. I know him well enough! The most important thing is that I believe that he will never hurt me!”

Joyce laughed.

She laughed out loud, “You’re so funny!”

“Do you think you know my brother-in-law very well just because you have been his wife for a few years? Hehe, do you know how many things he has been hiding from you?”

She felt that there was something wrong with what she said.

Joyce laughed mockingly and said again, “No, you should have never exchanged secrets with my brother-in-law! You don’t know anything at all!”

“Brother-in-law doesn’t like you. There has never been any trust between the two of you! This so-called wife of yours has always been a laughable existence from the very beginning!”

Joyce laughed sinisterly and asked Cassie, “Do you know? My brother-in-law has never liked you. The only person he likes is my sister!”.
