The flirting was off the charts. Watching the two of them so cozy, Winston couldn't help but frown a bit. No guy would be cool with his fiancée getting that close to someone else. Luckily, Connor didn't catch the scene. Otherwise, Cassie would've been in a serious jam.Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
Cassie quickly covered Chloe's mouth, giving her a playful wink and a nod to keep quiet. Chloe got the message instantly, blinking back in agreement. Cassie let Chloe go and plopped down next to her with a grin. Chloe chimed in, all smiles, "Connor knows how tight Cassie and I are, and he's totally okay with it."
Winston nodded, a little impressed, "Mr. Connor's quite the understanding guy." Cassie laughed, "Why should he care? I grew this rose myself and handed it to him, roots and all. If anyone should be miffed, it's me, hmph."
Turning to Chloe, Cassie joked, "And if he ever treats you wrong, just ditch him. My arms are always open for you." Chloe giggled, "I know, I know."
Winston was finally catching on. Cassie and Chloe had been besties since forever. And Cassie had a thing for Chloe, at least back in the day. But, you know, the heart wants what it wants, and sometimes it's not mutual.
The three of them gabbed for ages, with Chloe mostly listening in as Cassie and Winston reminisced. Cassie spilled some hilarious and embarrassing childhood stories. Chloe was shocked.

"Okay, okay, I'll zip it. I know you get

Later, Chloe headed to Connor's office and shared the whole saga. Connor cracked up, "Dr. Winston, such a bright guy, totally blindsided." "He's always thought Cassie was a guy. With her style and swagger, why would he question it?"
Chloe nodded, grinning, "I can't wait to see Dr. Winston's face when he realizes his childhood buddy of over twenty years is a woman." She pictured it, her face lighting up, "It's gonna be priceless."
Connor, sitting back in his chair, pulled Chloe into a hug, “But I wonder, why is Cassie keeping her secret from Dr. Winston? What's she afraid of?”
