Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover novel Chapter 782

After what felt like forever, Winston finally got a grip on the situation. He turned around, words stumbling out awkwardly.

Cassie had acted impulsively when she stripped down earlier, but now she was ready to lay it all out. Today was the day for honesty. If Winston could accept that she was a woman, fantastic. If not, well, maybe it was time to call it quits. Pretending for months had drained her, and the guilt was unbearable.

Cassie had put her clothes back on and returned to the dining table, setting up a spot for Winston with utensils and even a six-pack of beer. “Wanna join me for a drink?”

On the outside, Winston looked calm, but inside, there was a storm raging. Fortunately, as a psychologist, he was good at managing his emotions and soon sat across from Cassie with a level head.

Cassie handed him an open beer. Winston took it and gulped it down in one go, as if trying to drown his frustrations. Cassie watched, unsure of what to say.

Winston placed the empty beer bottle on the table with a thud. The chill from the beer snapped his mind into focus. It was then he finally accepted the truth—Cassie was a woman.

“Why did you lie to me?” he asked, his voice low and serious.

Cassie exhaled deeply. “I didn’t mean to trick you. You’ve always seen me as a guy since we were kids. When we met again in Riverbrook, you didn’t question it. I’ve always been like this; where do I even begin?”

Years had passed since they reconnected in Riverbrook, and Cassie still carried her tomboyish vibe. Her silence back then made sense—it was just who she was.

“What about when I told you how I felt? Why didn’t you come clean then?”
