When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 1027 Never Escape Us

Cassandra wanted to ask something else, but Queenie liad already hung up the phone.

There and then, Cassandra’s heart grew even more flustered. “An orphanage? What is she doing at ant orphanage? I thought she went to work?”

Cassandra was an adopted daughter, and her greatest Tear was being replaced. She was acutely aware that she had no blood ties with Queenie, and it was entirely possible that Queenie might abandon her.

She immediately picked up her phone and called Riley

“Could you have someone look into what my mother has been up to lately?” Cassandra asked.

On the other end of the phone, Riley cautiously asked, “Is it Paula, or is it Mdm. Queenie?”

Cassandra was irritated. “Obviously, it’s Queenie. Paula is not worthy to be my mother. Watch your words in the future!”

“Noted, Noted.”

After Riley hung up the phone, she couldn’t help but feel disdain in her heart. She doesn’t even acknowledge her own biological mother, truly heartless and ungrateful. However, it’s not surprising. Queenie is rich and powerful,

As as Queenie desired, she could have as many daughters and sons as she wished.

Riley was tasked with investigating Queenie, but Cassandra was anxious. She was worried that Queenie, due to her age, might bring home another son or daughter from the orphanage.

Over at the Smith residence, after Cecilia returned, she lazily sprawled out on the couch, utterly exhausted from her day.

Elliot quietly stayed by her side, causing no fuss or commotion.

Lucille watched the lonely mother and child, feeling a pang of sympathy. She couldn’t comprehend why Nathaniel had insisted on divorcing Cecilia, to the point of even abandoning his children.

She did a quick search online and found that men usually would have a mistress in such situations.

“Ceci, if you’re feeling tired, you should go back to bed and sleep.”

Cecilia shook her head. “I’m not tired. I’m fine.”

“All right, then. Lucille sighed.C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

At that moment, the sound of the doorbell echoed from the main entrance.

Cecilia sat up, somewhat puzzled. Who would come over at such a late hour?

“I’ll go take a look,” Lucille said.

“All right. Thanks.”

Lucille stepped outside and immediately spotted her man, Mason, and Nathaniel. Why is this se mbag here?

Inside the house, Cecilia asked. “Who is it?”

“Nathaniel.” Lucille replied.

Cecilia furrowed her brows slightly, puzzled. Now that both of us are divorced, what is he doing here? Is he here because of an unfair distribution of wealth!

“Do you want the security guard to kick them out?” Lucille asked.

Elliot also said, “Mommy, I’ll go handle it.”

Cecilia gave a casual laugh. “Never mind. I’ll go check it out. You guys stay put.”

After all, Nathaniel was the father of her children, and she didn’t want their relationship to become too strained.

When Cecilia stepped out, she saw Mason whispering something to Nathaniel. She had no idea what they were discussing.

When she finally stepped out of the house, Cecilia looked at Nathaniel and asked, “Yes?”

Sensing the need for privacy, Mason consciously withdrew himself, standing at a distance so as not to interrupt their conversation.

Nathaniel pulled out three plane tickets from his pocket, handing them over to Cecilia.

Puzzled, Cecilia took the items, only to find out they were plane tickets to Erihal.

“What’s this?” Cecilia’s face was somewhat pale.

“I hope you can leave Tudela, Nathaniel enunciated.

When those words fell, confusion filled Cecilia’s eyes. “Why should I?”

“There’s no particular reason. I just don’t want to see you in Tudela.” Nathaniel’s voice was notably cold and detached.

Cecilia felt a strong urge to smack the plane tickets into his face. “Are you out of your mind? Do you still think you’re the unparalleled Nathaniel of the past? Do you expect me to leave Tudela just like that? What do you think of me and our children? It’s hilarious that you don’t want to see us! Even if you were blind, you could never escape us in your lifetime!”

When she spoke then, it was particularly unpleasant to hear.
