Upon hearing this request, Nicholas didn’t immediately agree. Instead, he said, “You are Cassandra’s biological mother, thus technically my mother–in–law. And Ralph is father–in–law. It will be inappropriate for me to interfere in your legal disputes.” 

Upon hearing this response, Paula didn’t lose hope. 

She knew Nicholas didn’t visit her for Cassandra’s sake. 

“The person I’ve wronged the most in my life is Ceci. It seems that it’s going to be hard for me to atone. However, I will do everything in my power to reclaim what’s rightfully mine. I want to make amends to Ceci…” 

Nicholas silently listened to her words, offering no response. 

When he left the hospital, he spoke to Magnus. 

“Ensure that your mother is well protected for the time being.” 

Magnus was somewhat puzzled. “Has something happened?” 

Just do as I’ve told you,” Nicholas said. 

“Okay.” 

Magnus didn’t press for more information. After all, it didn’t really concern him. 

After parting ways with Magnus, Nicholas hopped into his car and made another call, this time to his team of lawyers. 

He wanted Paula to win! 

However, such matters couldn’t be openly discussed. 

Upon returning to Daltonia Villa, Cecilia scrolled through the recent news on her phone. As expected, she came across the news about Paula filing for a divorce lawsuit. 

The headline read: Once a globally renowned dancer, she plans to sue her second husband for divorce now that she is terminally ill. The reasons behind it are deeply poignant. 

After reading the article, Cecilia realized it was nothing more than a ploy by some minor media outlets to boost their views. It hadn’t even made it into the top ten trending topics. 

Clearly, Paula was no longer the renowned dancer she once was, nor did she command the attention of others anymore. 

Cecilia pulled out the envelope that Paula had given her once again. The hearing date was set for the day after tomorrow. 

She decided to attend and see what exactly Paula had in mind. 

Before long, the day of the court hearing arrived.

Cassandra accompanying Ralph. The two of them were engaged in a conversation, occasionally breaking into smiles, though she couldn’t discern what they were discussing. 

After dropping off Elliot, Sven also came along with Cecilia. 

“Do you want me to go over and take a look?” he asked Cecilia. 

“No need, they’re coming over,” said Cecilia, looking toward the distance. Cassandra had noticed her and was heading their way. 

Cecilia stood still. When Cassandra arrived, she first glanced at Sven standing behind her, then asked, “Why are you here?” 

“Of course I’m here for the hearing,” said Cecilia. 

“You’re likely to be disappointed then.” 

With a smug expression on her face, Cassandra turned around in her high heels and walked away. 

Cecilia caught something from her words and said to Sven, “Go check on Paula at the hospital” 

“All right.” 

Without uttering another word, Sven drove toward the hospital. 

On the other hand, the trial was about to commence, yet Paula was nowhere to be seen. 

Cecilia was seated in the audience seat. Cassandra was not far away from her.
