Chapter 379 Searched For Queenie


    Cassandra’s mother was a woman named Queenie Jamieson.


    An hourter, the information that Cecilia paid someone to investigate was delivered to her.


    Cassandra was a public figure, so information about her was easily uncovered.


    What Cecilia cared about was the exact nature of Cassandra’s rtionship with Pa.


    Cecilia muttered the information as she read, “Five years ago, Pa traveled abroad, where she met Cassandra’s father. They fell in love and married, making her Cassandra’s stepmother today.”


    Stepmother… Cecilia thought about how Pa kept calling Cassandra her daughter on the call and didn’t believe Pa was merely Cassandra’s stepmother.


    She knew all too well what kind of person Pa was. If Pa could be so ruthless to her own biological daughter, she wouldn’t have treated a non–biological one any nicer.


    “What about her biological mother?” asked Cecilia.


    The person on the other end said, “Do you mean Queenie? Cassandra’s father was a matrilocal son–inw. After he joined the Jamieson family, he didn’t get along well with Queenie. They divorced five years ago. Queenie only has Cassandra as her daughter, and she treats her very well, basically giving her anything she asks for”


    There wasn’t any more information, so Cecilia didn’t press for more questions.


    As she thought how simr Cassandra’s dancing was to Pa’s, an idea formed in her mind, though she didn’t dare to delve deeper.


    She ended the call and leaned back in her chair to rest.


    Meanwhile, Nichs received the news that the coboration would not go through.


    He didn’t ask again.


    Elena also received simr news, which surprised her. “Who else could possibly offer a higher price than us?”


    The secretary shook his head. “When you mentioned wanting to coborate with Ms. Cecille, I had already given a heads–up to the other entertainmentpanies. No one dared topete with us.”


    “Go and discover who’s being so unaware of their ce.”


    “Understood.”


    After returning to town, Cecilia paid a visit to Elliot before finally heading home.


    Nathaniel hadn’t returned yet, but she wasn’t overly concerned. She simply spent her time chatting with Martha.


    At that time, outside the town hospital, Nathaniel and Mason were seated in the car.


    “Is the other child here?” asked Nathaniel.


    “Yes, the two children look identical. However, Eli is rather frail and spent much of his time in the hospital,” Mason replied.


    “What’s the illness?”


    “It seemed to be leukemia.” Mason discovered that earlier, so when he brought Elliot back to Tud, he had a medical team by his side.


    “Let’s go back,” Nathaniel said gravely.


    “Okay.”


    On the way back, Nathaniel closed his eyes, the doctor’s words from earlier that day echoing in his mind. “Mr. Rainsworth, judging by the progress of your treatment, it seems likely that your memory will be fully restored in less than a month.”


    One month… Recently, Nathaniel noticed that his memory was bing increasingly clear. However, for some reason, the more his memory recovered, the more difort he felt.


    Eventually, he arrived home but didn’t notice, so Mason had to remind him. He then opened his eyes and stepped out of the car.


    From a distance, he could hear the sound of a woman ying the piano.


    A voice echoed once more in Nathaniel’s mind. “I’ve been mistaken all along. The person I truly love isn’t you at all.”


    His head was inexplicably throbbing in pain,pelling him to push those thoughts aside.


    Upon hearing the sound of the front door opening downstairs, Cecilia also descended from the second floor and realized Nathaniel had returned.


    She couldn’t help but ask, “Why are you only just getting back?”


    “I was working overtime.” Nathaniel technically wasn’t lying.


    He was truly upied with setting up the newpany.Original from N?velDrama.Org.


    After giving his response, he approached Cecilia. “Ceci, tell me honestly. The child in your belly isn’t really mine, is it?”


    Recently, his memories had been returning in fragments, and he distinctly remembered that they had sex more than once.


    Suddenly questioned by him, Cecilia immediately became nervous. “Of course not.”


    Once his memory returned, he would realize that she had borrowed his seed.
