Cassie’s mask collapsed, revealing her deceptive tactics to everyone there. The tape continued to play, with each word she said condemning her further. Her confident smile was vanished, replaced by an expression of desperation. My brother looked at her, his eyes filled with hurt and hatred. ‘How could you?’ he eventually inquired, his voice breaking. The guests stared in horrified silence, the gravity of the discovery seeping in.
Facade Shattered
Brother’s realization
My brother was distraught when he understood the magnitude of Cassie’s dishonesty. He looked at her, his face pallid and his eyes full of betrayal. ‘All this time, you’ve been lying to me?’ he inquired, his voice shaking. Cassie attempted to speak, but the words seemed to lodge in her throat. The room was hushed, as everyone waited to see what happened next. My brother’s life had come crashing down, and there was no turning back.
