Chapter 1289_When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 1289 How Did You Know I Was Here

 Cassina had not slept for long before she woke up. Noticing that her phone was switched off, she plugged it in to charge. Only then did she realize that Cassandra had called her numerous times.

 She immediately called back.

 Cassandra quickly picked answered her phone. “Cassina, where have you been? You didn’te back all night. Who are you with now?”

 Cassina nced at Cecilia, and thetter also looked over at her.

 She stammered, “I had a bit too much to drink with my friends yesterday and ended up falling asleep. My phone was turned off and I just woke up. I’m really sorry.”

 Had Cassandra not known that she had left with Cecilia, she might have believed her. “Really? Do you have any idea how worried Mom and I were about you? You need toe back right now.”

 “But….” Cassina was somewhat torn. With her mother lying in the hospital bed in that condition, she could not possibly just go back now.

 “I have some things to take care of. Can I go back in a few days?” she asked cautiously.

 “You’re noting back?” Cassandra asked, raising her voice. She could not help wondering if Cassina had already told Cecilia something.

 Then, she continued in a low voice, “Have you thought this through? Mom and I helped you make arrangements for someone to take care of Dn while you’re just out fooling around. Don’t you think that’s a bit unfair? If you don’te back, we won’t care about Dn anymore.”

 All she could do now was to threaten Cassina.

 When Cassina heard that, she immediately grew anxious. “Don’t be mad. I’m going back right now.”

 She ended the call and gave Cecilia an embarrassed look. “I’m sorry, Ms. Smith, but I have to leave now. My son is in the hospital and there’s no one to look after him.”

 Upon hearing that, Cecilia responded bluntly, “Ms. Cassina, I also have to work every day and don’t have the time to stay here to look after Mdm. Bailey.”

 Cassina expressed that she understood. “I get it. It’s just that I’m really in a tough spot right now.”

 With that, she pulled out a card and handed it to Cecilia.

 “There’s fifty million here. I know this amount can’tpare to saving a life, but this is all I can offer. Use this to cover my mother’s medical expenses and perhaps hire a caregiver to take care of her temporarily. Is that okay?” she asked, her desperation evident in her eyes.

 She knew that provoking Cassandra was not a wise move, so she dared not offend her.

 Seeing that Cassina was genuinely at à loss, Cecilia decided not to make things harder for her.

 “I’ll help you out today. However, I hope you remember this and refrain from helping Cassandra go against me in the future. Otherwise, I won’t let you off the hook either,” she warned.

 She knew that Cassina was not Queenie’s biological child and that if Queenie were to find out about that, there was no way Queenie would spare Cassina.

 However, the person I have to deal with is Queenie. I’m not doing this to help her.

 “Don’t worry. I will,” Cassina promised while nodding emphatically.

 “Mom, I’m leaving now. I’lle to see you again when I have the time,” she said after picking up her bag and turning to her mother on the hospital bed, reluctant to leave.

 After Cassina left, Cecilia had Sven find someone to handle the matters at the hospital.

 Then, she headed back as she still had to go to work.

 As soon as she stepped out of the hospital, she spotted a familiar figure waiting next to a grey Cayenne.

 The man lit a cigarette, but the moment he saw her emerging, he immediately put it out and strode straight toward her.

 She was somewhat taken aback. “Why are you here?”All rights ? N?velDrama.Org.

 Standing in front of her, Nathaniel replied, “I came because I was worried you might be in some danger.”

 “What danger would I be in? You’re overthinking it.” No sooner had she said that than something seemed to cross her mind, and she stared at him intently.

 “By the way, how did you know I was here?”
