When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 1318

Chapter 1318 A Facade
Cassina truly hadn't anticipated that Queenie would employ specialists to treat Bailey. Is it really out of genuine kindness?

On the surface, she remained unruffled. “Thanks, Mom.”

“It's the least I can do,” Queenie earnestly said. “She's had a tough time raising you, and I've always wanted to find a way to express my gratitude. Once she recovers, you must take me to see her.”

“All right.”

After ending the call, Cassina turned to Cecilia and asked, “You heard that, didn't you?”

“Yes.” Cecilia gave a nod.

“Could she really be that kind-hearted?” Cassina found it hard to believe.

Cecilia wasn't entirely sure, but she ventured an analysis, saying, “I think if Queenie really wanted to take Mdm. Bailey's life, she wouldn't go through such great lengths.”

“What if she's just putting on a facade?” Cassina still refused to believe that Queenie was a good person. After all, Cassandra had repeatedly tarnished Queenie's reputation in front of her.

While the two were conversing, the specialists also emerged.

They informed Cassina that there was a possibility Bailey's illness could be cured. They told her not to worry.

“How much longer will it probably take?” Cassina immediately asked.

“A week at most,” a doctor replied.

“A week? That's wonderful. Thank you.” Gratitude filled Cassina's eyes.

Upon observing, it was clear to Cecilia that Queenie's act of employing doctors for Bailey was undoubtedly out of kindness.

If Queenie wanted Bailey dead, there was no need to take such a huge risk. If by any chance Bailey was cured, it would be difficult for Queenie to explain when Cassina found out what had happened.

These doctors, entrusted by Queenie, remained there specifically to treat Bailey's illness.

The fear within Cassandra intensified, yet she managed to keep up with the conversation. “Indeed, you've always valued relationships and loyalty the most, Mom. I haven't been particularly busy lately, so I'll go to the hospital to keep Cassie company and help take care of her.”

“No. You're pregnant.”

“It's okay. It's been stable for three months now.”

After Cassandra finished speaking, she gathered her clothes and was about to leave.

Queenie was taken aback. She knew Cassandra better than anyone else. Cassandra was ruthless. It was surprising that she would be willing to take care of Bailey.

However, her face remained impassive when she said, “All right. Please assist Cassie more.”

“Sure.”

As soon as Cassandra left, Queenie had someone tail her, curious to see what she was really up to.
