    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Chapter 1286 How Did She End Up Like This</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Find someone to tail Cassina. See where she’s going and what she’s up to.”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cassina is my trump card. I can’t afford any mistakes.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">After ending the call, Cassandra returned to her room to rest.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Meanwhile, Cassina had already made her way outside where Cecilia’s car was waiting. She opened the car door and climbed in,pletely oblivious to the fact that someone was following her.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">There was an anxious look in her eyes as she asked, “Ms. Smith, where’s my mother? Is she okay?”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Having gone so many days without being able to reach her mother, she could not help but fear the worst.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cecilia looked at Cassina. It doesn’t seem as though she’s aware of what’s really going on.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“You’ll find outter,” she replied.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Not long after Sven started driving, he noticed that someone was tailing them.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">He frowned slightly. “Hold tight. A car is following us.”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Huh? Who would be following us?” Cassina asked, stunned.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">He did not respond. Instead, he stepped on the elerator, swiftly navigating through the unending stream of traffic.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">In less than ten minutes, he managed to lose the car that had been tailing them.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Although Cecilia had been prepared for that, she still almost threw up.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">As for Cassina, she was feeling even more dizzy. “That was way too fast.”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“I’ve shaken them off already,” said Sven.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">She breathed a sigh of relief.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">After settling back into her seat, Cecilia nced over her shoulder and did not spot any other vehicles.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">She asked Sven, “When did that car start following us?”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Not long after Ms. Cassina got in the car,” came his reply.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Upon hearing that, Cassina was dumbfounded. “Do you mean that I was being followed?”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">He neither confirmed nor denied it.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">A sense of unease filled her heart, and she could not stop herself from ncing repeatedly in the rearview mirror. “Who would be following me? Could it be Queenie Jamieson?”</font></font>Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cecilia noticed that she referred to Queenie by her full name. It appears she’s well aware that she’s not Queenie’s biological daughter.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cassina nodded.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Nobody said anything more as Sven drove toward the neighboring city. In order to save time, he even took the highway.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">It was eleven o’clock at night when they finally reached the hospital.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">When Cassina was led to the hospital entrance, she was still somewhat confused. “Why is my mom in here?”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cecilia made no response and merely followed Sven into the building.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">They walked down the hospital corridor, the scent of disinfectant pervading the air. Then, Sven came to a stop before the entrance of an unassuming ward.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">There were even two people standing guard at the door. Upon seeing Sven, they immediately bowed. “Boss.”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">He murmured an acknowledgment before saying, “You can go and take a break now.”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Okay</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">After handing Sven the keys to the ward, they left the hospital.</font></font>


    Sven opened the door to the ward, and Cassina hurried forward impatiently. With just one nce, she saw Bailey lying on the hospital bed, injured and unconscious.


    Bailey was hooked up to a variety of medical devices, and the ECG machine beside her was emitting a faint beeping.


    Cassina’s eyes instantly welled up with tears as she threw herself at Bailey’s side.


    “Mom! How did you end up like this?”


    I had always assumed that she was hiding out of fear that Queenie would discover my true identity. It never crossed mind that it wasn’t so and that she was severely injured!


    She reached out to hold Bailey’s hand, only to discover that it was covered in wounds.


    Afraid of hurting Bailey, she carefully loosened her grip.


    Cecilia observed her every move closely. If this isn’t all an act, then she probably wasn’t the one who harmed Bailey.


    Turning to look at them, Cassina asked, “How did my mom end up like this?”


    Sven told Cassina everything he knew.


    Shock filled Cassina’s eyes. “Someone was out to get her?”


    She still found that somewhat hard to believe. After all, they had just been ordinary people in the past, without money or power. They had not offended anyone, so there was simply no reason for anyone to want to harm them.


    But now…
