St. Grignon de Montfort is more qualifed than we are to explain it to you:

"...He glorified His majesty and His independence by depending on the Virgin in His conception, His birth, His presentation in the temple, His hidden life of thirty years - and even up to the time of His death, for she was present then, and He offered one only sacrifice in union with her, and was immolated to the Eternal Father with her consent as once Isaac was immolated to the Divine Will by the consent of Abraham...It is she who nourished and supported Him, who brought Him up and then sacrificed Him for us"

IOW, she was in perfect union with Him. There is no rational way to square this with "Lies! I was cheated (even hypothetically).

What in His Holiness' homily, do you think, contradicts the fact that Our Lady "nourished and supported Him, brought Him up and then sacrificed Him for us", and "was in perfect union with Him"?

I ask because if you had read the homily you will know that Our Lady did not utter anything like ""Lies! I was cheated". Instead,

...she was overshadowed with the silence of the mystery that she did not understand, and with this silence, she has accepted that this mystery can grow and flourish in the hope

If you want to be taken seriously, accuracy and reading comprehension would help.
