Chapter 82
"Helen hugged her immediately. ""This is my other precious daughter, Cassie. She is brave, honest, and kind. Some time ago, she even went undercover with the police and broke up a gang that was illegally recording videos. My eldest daughter is about to get married, but my youngest daughter hasn't met the right person yet. I hope she gets married soon. You seem to have a young son, and I...""
As soon as the other person heard that, their face darkened. Who didn't know that Cassie was almost livestreamed being humiliated? Who would dare consider her?
""Oh, that's indeed very admirable, but unfortunately, my son already has a girlfriend."" The other person declined politely and quickly found an excuse to leave.
Robert said sympathetically, ""Cassie, don't worry. I will definitely find a partner for you today.""
Cassie remained calm. She had long given up hope.
""Are you done with the act? You've even arranged for photographers at the entrance. Once the news is out, everyone will know how deep our father-daughter bond is and how motherly you are. There is no need to pretend. I came here to celebrate my grandmother's birthday. Nothing else interests me.""
Helen gritted her teeth. ""Cassie, have you lost your mind? We raised you! Your father and I have spent a lot of time nurturing you. If you don't repent, fine, but don't spread rumors about us outside! What have we done to deserve this? Even if we restrict you, it's for your own good.""
""You're right. That's why I never hated you. But just because you gave birth to me and raised me doesn't mean you can take my life!"" Cassie scoffed angrily.
""When did we try to take your life? Was it when you almost died because of the poor condition of the old house? Do you think we would let you starve or go without clothes?"" Robert exclaimed.
Cassie was taken aback. Could it be that the old servant wasn't arranged by Robert and Helen?
On second thought, it was actually possible. ""But that old lady...""
""Cassie, you're here!"" Olivia seemed to be pleasantly surprised.
Before Cassie could react, Olivia held her hand and grabbed Helen's as well.
""It's great! Our family is finally complete.""
Cassie raised the hand she held and replied coldly, ""Please let go. I don't want you to fall again when I try to shake you off. You'll then accuse me of pushing you on purpose.""
""What do you mean, Cassie?"" Olivia's beautiful face instantly turned awkward. She grabbed Arthur and said, ""Arthur, talk to Cassie. We have so many guests today. It'll be better if our family looks harmonious.""
Arthur thought that Cassie was causing trouble again, but he froze. She was wearing a white dress today. With her long hair exquisitely pinned up, she looked absolutely stunning.
Olivia looked great today, but no matter how good she looked, she couldn't compare to Cassie's natural beauty.
If it weren't for everything that had happened before, he would have been getting engaged to her today instead.
Olivia noticed Arthur staring continuously at Cassie. She felt frustrated, but she maintained her composure. ""Cassie, you look so beautiful today. I'm sure you spent a long time getting ready. Everyone is looking at you.""
There was a hint of awkwardness on Arthur's handsome face. He quickly withdrew his gaze.
Helen, who was standing beside them, was displeased. ""Cassie, I asked you to come here to celebrate, not to steal the limelight. Today is your sister's big day.""
Cassie was at a loss for words. ""Sorry, but I only spent ten minutes getting ready. Guess natural beauty just saves time. If she doesn't look as good as me, it's not my fault. After all, she's not my biological sister.""
""You..."" Helen was too gagged to swear."
