When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 1057 A Warning

“I see. What a shame,” Vivian said, setting down her phone.

Cecilia comforted, “There’s no need to feel that way. Today’s incident served as a warning to Cassandra that I’m not someone to be trifled with”

Vivian nodded, “Mm–hmm.”

They all understood that as long as Cassandra was a daughter of the Jamieson family, she would always have someone to protect her.

“Queenie really treats her adopted daughter well,” Vivian commented. “If she has her own child, that child will surely be happy

“Yeah.” Cecilia couldn’t help but envy Cassandra for having such a supportive mother. No matter what happened, Queenie always stood by Cassandra’s side.

“Have you ever considered finding your biological mother, Ceci? Vivian suddenly thought about how many parents who abandoned their children often did so out of desperation or for other reasons.

Cecilia shook her head. “I don’t want to be disappointed again.”

Parents who could abandon their daughter at an orphanage, for the most part, probably didn’t love their daughter. At least, that was what Cecilia believed.

She didn’t want to inflict more sorrow upon herself, to experience once again the bitterness of not being loved by her parents.

“All right. It’s okay, you still have us.” Vivian hugged Cecilia.

“Mhm, Cecilia nodded.

Inside the nursery, Jonathan pulled out the video he recorded from their earlier visit to the funeral parlor.

He also searched for topics related to it online and found no scandal about Cassandra. To be precise, it wasn’t that there was no scandal about her, but rather, someone had been paid to remove them.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

“Even if it doesn’t cost a dime, I’ll make sure you go on trending at least once.” Jonathan started working on the computer.

Elliot was watching from the side. “Do it. Make her even more famous,”

“Sure thing.”

Jonathan had no trouble hacking various websites. Once inside, he brazenly shared videos of Cassandra refusing to acknowledge her biological mother and the terrible things she said.

Late into the night, Cassandra had already returned to the place where Queenie resided.

She didn’t dare to stay at Rainsworth Manor anymore, fearing that Queenie might suddenly seek out her biological daughter.

“Mom, thank you for helping me clean up my mess again today,” said Cassandra.

Queenie was unconcerned. “You’re my daughter. No matter what you’ve done, I will always stand up for you. However…”

She paused for a moment, then continued, “I didn’t expect Cecilia to be so persistent. We’ve let her off the hook, yet she keeps targeting you.”

“Cecilia is now divorced from Nathaniel and has learned that she isn’t the biological daughter of Paula and the Smith family. She must be finding it hard to accept Cassandra responded.

“She isn’t Paula’s daughter?” Queenie asked, puzzled.

Cassandra nodded. “Yes, she admitted it herself at the funeral parlor today. She and Paula have no blood relation.”

“Orphans usually tend to be self–centered and self–reliant, doing whatever it takes to get by,” Cassandra added.

Queenie didn’t respond and took a sip from a glass of water.

For reasons she couldn’t quite pinpoint, upon hearing that Cecilia was an orphan, she felt a peculiar stir of emotions deep within her heart. She found that sensation bizarre.

You’re pregnant, so you should sleep early. Don’t worry about Cecilia. I’m here for you,” Queenie lovingly told Cassandra.

“Mom, you’re truly wonderful.” Cassandra embraced Queenie. “By the way, have you heard any news about Cassina?”

“She hasn’t returned yet, not for two more days,” responded Queenie.

In that case, I’ll have someone set up her living space in advance,” Cassandra said.

“No need. I think I’ll wait for Cassina to return first and let her decorate her own room.” Queenie didn’t notice Cassandra’s expression shift after she said that.

On the surface, Cassandra agreed. Once she returned to her room, she immediately called Riley. “Have. you found Cassina yet?”
