Chapter 171
Yasmine and Jessica had not heard the name Leanna for a long time.
Leanna could be described as incredibly beautiful. Men who liked her could walk around Drieso several times, and even some women pursued her.
It could be seen how stunning her appearance was.
But somehow, Leanna ended up falling in love with Darren. The love story between the two of them, if written, would become a sweet romance novel that made jealous.
everyone
As the younger sisters–in–law, Yasmine and Jessica once joked Darren had been single for so many years because he was waiting for Leanna.
Otherwise, why wouldn’t he consider marriage until Leanna showed up while both of his young brothers had gotten married and even had children for a long time?
At that time, many people said that Darren was unforgivable for marrying Leanna!
However, after they registered for marriage and should have become an enviable. couple, they suddenly disappeared from the public eye and remained missing for nineteen years.
If it weren’t for the news of them having a child in the first year of their disappearance, they probably wouldn’t have known anything, let alone Kayden coming home to ask
about it..
Initially, when they rushed there by plane and car overnight, they were already too late. Darren and Leanna were gone, and the child was gone too.
But as far as they knew, Cassandra had stayed in an orphanage in Drieso. Otherwise, Benjamin wouldn’t have followed the clues to find her, tracing her to Rootland Village and bringing her back to Drieso.
Apart from those unreasonable things Benjamin had done, this was the only thing that made sense.
It led them to find Cassandra,
As for the paternity test proving the relationship between Cassandra and Benjamin, they could leave it to Darren and wait for him to come back and explain that himself.
However, this explanation might not be forthcoming.
Nineteen years had passed, and whoever should have come back had already come
back.
“Cassie, it’s good that you’re back. Your coming back should be a relief for Maximilian,” said Yasmine with emotion, holding Cassandra’s hand.
For so many years, not only the siblings of Darren felt guilty, but Maximilian also felt guilty. He was guilty of not acting faster back then so that Cassandra wouldn’t be lost. Fortunately, they had found her now, which resolved a longstanding worry.
However, Cassandra couldn’t accept this sentiment as readily. When she was with Benjamin’s family at first, they pretended to be loving and caring. But now they were all selfish.
As for this Yates family, she didn’t know about them at all.
The reason why she knew Kayden in her previous life was that he had died with the national flag of Clusia draped over him. Besides, she had saved him in this life. But she didn’t know anything about the Yates family.
Therefore, she remained reserved towards them. She didn’t want to encounter a family like Benjamin’s again.
She had treated Benjamin and his family sincerely, only to be dead because of them in
return.
Kayden felt somewhat unbelievable. He wondered if Cassandra was really his cousin.
Emery, the awesome hacker in Grass, was his cousin. Kayden thought, ‘Should I go out to show off?‘
Thomas also found it unbelievable, but he was more pleasantly surprised.
He had already been a fan of her, and she turned out to be his cousin. He would continue to be the first supporter of his cousin.
Thomas was the first to react. He walked up to Cassandra and stretched out his hand with a charming smile. He said, “Let me introduce myself formally. I’m Thomas, your cousin, and also your fan.”
Seeing that Thomas was so well–behaved, Jessica nodded approvingly.
She thought that her son was good, as he knew how to get along with his cousin.
Yasmine gave Kayden a sharp look, making him shudder. Kayden hurriedly said to Cassandra, “Welcome home, Cassandra.”
He said that with a smile, and his words were sincere.

Kayden and Thomas had always known they had a cousin, and they knew she had been missing.
The family was searching for her. While they couldn’t help, they could only hope that one day their cousin would return.
Now it seemed that their wish had come true.
Kayden wanted to hug Cassandra, but he received a sharp gaze. Unconsciously, he swallowed and opted for a handshake instead.
“Ahem!”
In the living room, there were two consecutive coughs, coming from Kayden’s father and Thomas‘ father.
Indeed, they were Cassandra’s second and third uncles.
Kayden and Thomas didn’t get what the coughs meant, but Yasmine and Jessica did. They quickly got up and introduced Kayden’s father and Thomas‘ father. Denzel was Kayden’s father, and Devin was Thomas‘ father.
Cassandra greeted them stiffly, and then the two men nodded with satisfaction. They thought that a daughter was better than a son. Looking at their sons, they felt increasingly disappointed!
Although Cassandra had a lot of questions, she felt embarrassed to ask further when she saw that Maximilian seemed a bit unwell.
So she intended to leave. She hadn’t been home since she returned, and she guessed that Hugo, Jeremiah, and Cyrus were probably waiting for her.
Seeing that Cassandra was going to leave, Yasmine hurriedly held her hand and said, “Cassie, this is your home. Where are you going?”
Yasmine thought, ‘How could Cassie leave right after coming back? Many beautiful dresses and imported delicacies I bought are on the way, all waiting to be given to her. Jessica also tried to stop Cassandra from leaving, unwilling to let her go.
“Well… There are still people waiting for me at home. Let me go back first. I’ll come here tomorrow,” said Cassandra.
Such enthusiasm made her a little overwhelmed.
Therefore, Yasmine and Jessica reluctantly let her leave.

At the entrance of Springmount Townhouse, Cassandra really didn’t expect that, after half a month, the people from Benjamin’s family could still block her.
Seeing Cassandra, Frederick, Jasper, and Matthew went straight up to her.
“Cassandra, come with us.” Frederick stepped forward and tried to grab Cassandra’s hand, but he missed.
“Are you insane? If there’s something wrong with your brain, go see a neurosurgeon. I don’t mind making an appointment for you,” Cassandra said. She had been in a good mood at first, but she was now angry because of them.
“Cassandra, you can’t be so heartless. Dad has been lying in the hospital for more than half a month. Have you visited him? Mom has started working outside, but you are enjoying yourself here. Do you have any conscience?” said Frederick.
He was a little freaked out.
In the past half a month, he spent money on treating Raymond and finding doctors for Benjamin. The tens of millions of dollars that were barely saved were cheated away and used to pay the medical expenses.
And they had all lost their jobs.
Even Matthew, as a manager, was fired by the company for the dubious reason that he was a bad guy. And the company didn’t give him any compensation.
Besides, he should pay a penalty fee. If he didn’t pay, he would be sued. Therefore, he borrowed money from his brothers.
Now, although they were all together as a family, they had no money left.
They thought that since Cassandra was Benjamin’s daughter, she had to take care of him. Since she was their younger sister, she couldn’t just enjoy herself while watching them suffer.
They had almost sold all the houses they owned.
Cassandra said, “Are you talking about conscience with me? You should first ask yourself if you have any. Don’t think that you can justify your behavior and make me do anything. The matters of your family have nothing to do with me. Did I make your family what it is now? Yulissa did it! If you want to vent your anger, go find her.”
She thought, “It’s no use yelling at me.”
However, she thought for a moment and suddenly smiled. She continued, “But if you

three can defeat me, I might consider going to the hospital to see whether Benjamin is dead or not.”
It didn’t matter if she hit them for no reason, but that was not her style.
She would like to give them a chance to take action and give herself the chance to teach Frederick and Jasper a lesson.
