Chapter 1147

Cooper pointed at Lucian's computer screen and said to Sally, “Didn't you notice? The stranger looks very feminine, but 'she' has an Adam's apple.”

The Adam's apple was usually unique to men because of their higher androgen levels compared to women.

Sally froze for several seconds before she realized what Cooper was getting at.

She replied, “Perhaps Edward's son experienced gender dysphoria and realized he preferred to be a woman. He might've undergone gender affirmation surgery on the sly. Edward is a loyal subscriber to patriarchy and proud to boot. He exiled his son from the family because he could not accept that his son had become a woman. Then he lied to everyone else about sending his son abroad to study.”

Cooper agreed with Sally's hypothesis and replied slowly, “Perhaps the Gaudette family never promised Edward anything but instead discovered his son's secret.”

Something niggled at Sally's mind. “While this news would humiliate Edward, it's clearly not enough to cost him his government position or be worthy of blackmail.”
