Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover



Cassie, with her small and delicate build, often got teased for looking a bit on the feminine side. Connor unabashedly called them sisters. Wasn't that a slap in the face? Suggesting she was a woman?

Winston chimed in, "Mr. Connor, I respect you as a straight-up guy, but making comments like that isn't cool. Cassie's behavior around Chloe might've been a little off, but that's what happens when you've been friends for decades. Neither of us should be judging, and you definitely shouldn't be disrespecting him."

Connor was caught off guard, for once looking completely baffled. He turned to Wayne with a look that said, "Are you serious?" How could Wayne not know Cassie was a woman after all this time? Even Connor thought it was wild. Winston, who's supposed to be a top-notch psychologist, couldn't see that Cassie was a woman? It was downright ridiculous.

Chloe was equally shocked, her thoughts echoing Connor's. What was going on with these two? When they walked in together, Chloe thought they were dating. Turns out, Winston didn't know Cassie was actually a woman?

Cassie felt a twinge of guilt, keeping her head down and focusing on her fish. She hadn't told Winston she was a woman yet. There hadn't really been a right moment, and she didn't see the need. Winston saw her as a guy. If she came clean, he'd probably think she was pulling a fast one on him. Plus, she was still riding the wave of confidence from back when she was known as Kash. If he found out she'd been keeping this from him all these years, her credibility would take a serious hit. He might even cut her off completely.

But Cassie hadn't set out to trick him. Winston was just so sure she was a guy, she didn't know how to change his mind. Like the time they went to the mall and she came out of the women's restroom, he didn't even bat an eye. Just called her careless. But come on, who's so careless they use the wrong restroom?

Winston seemed genuinely ticked off. Cassie got pulled away, and she didn't forget to snag Chloe's orange juice on the way out. That sight made Winston even more frustrated. He had a soft spot for Chloe. Usually, when people mocked her for being girly, he'd go off on them. But when Connor said he and Chloe were like sisters, he didn't even flinch. To keep things smooth with Chloe, he swallowed his pride.

After Cassie and Winston left, Chloe and Connor just sat there, blinking at each other. Then suddenly, they burst into laughter. It grew louder and louder until Chloe was clutching her stomach, tears rolling down her

"Totally absurd. He thought you were taking a jab at Cassie."

"But here's the kicker-Cassie didn't even get mad, and yet he got all riled up. My brother's something else."

Connor, however, was smirking, a glint of amusement in his eyes. "It's not that strange. Your brother probably thought he was falling for a guy, and his anger? That's all directed at himself."
