Chapter 1319 Look After Bailey
Cassina had been keeping vigil at the hospital for her mother, Bailey. Observing Bailey''s condition, it was clear that there had been some improvement. Although she remained silent, she was no longer harmful to others. "Mom, do you really not remember me at all?" Cassina asked.
Bailey''s vacant eyes looked at her, her lips cracked open as if to say something, but suddenly she retreated into a corner, trembling with fear.
"Cassie," Cassandra called out from the doorway.
Cassina was oblivious to her mother''s unusual behavior. Seeing Cassandra there, she got up and stepped out.
In the absence of strangers, she humbly asked, "Ms. Evans, is there something you need from me?"
Cassandra was quite fond of her demeanor, so she responded gently, "Not really. I just heard that you were going to take care of Mdm. Bailey all by yourself, so I''vee to lend a hand."
"Lend a hand?" Cassina was a bit taken aback and quickly waved her hands. "No need. I can do it myself."
Cassina knew that Cassandra was no saint. She won''t possibly help me for no reason. Could it be that she wants me to harm Cecilia again?
"Don''t worry about it. No matter what, we''re going to be family in the future. As your older sister, I can''t possibly ignore your affairs."
After Cassandra finished speaking, she didn''t want to prolong the conversation. Instead, she headed into the ward. "Gosh! Why is Mdm. Bailey still like this? Didn''t they say she would be better in a week?" Cassina also entered the ward. "I''m not quite sure either, but that''s what the doctors said."
Cassandra, still worried, made her way over to Bailey.
Bailey reacted as if she had seen a ghost,shing out at her with all her might.
"Mom!" Cassina instantly tensed up.N?vel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
Cassandra was stepping back repeatedly. "You''re a madwoman!"
She raised her hand, ready to strike Bailey.
Cassina immediately pleaded, "Ms. Evans, please be magnanimous. Don''t be angry with my mom. She''s ill. She didn''t mean it."
Under normal circumstances, Cassandra would never swallow her anger, but it was different that day.
If she had hit Bailey, it would be difficult for her to find an excuse to stayter on.
Cassandra raised her hand high, gently lowered it, and patted Cassina''s shoulder. With a fake smile, she said, "Cassie, you''ve misunderstood. How could I possibly harm Mdm. Bailey? I was just afraid she might hurt the baby in my belly. I instinctively used my hand to block her. Let''s go. It seems like Mdm. Bailey needs some rest. We can go grab something to eat first beforeing back to take care of her in the evening."
Finding it hard to refuse, Cassina nodded in agreement, simply saying, "All right."
At that moment, the news of Cassandra''s visit to see Bailey was swiftly ryed to Cecilia by the bodyguard. Perhaps it was a sixth sense, but Cecilia always had the feeling that Cassandra was up to no good.
"Make
Ou keep a close eye on
Mdm. Bailey. As soon as Cassandra enters the ward, monitor her
move. Do you understand?"
"Yes."
Cecilia ended the call.
Nathaniel asked her, "What''s the matter?"
"Nothing much. The bodyguard from the hospital has told me that Cassandra has visited Bailey again.
She even mentioned wanting to take care of her with Cassina."
"Cassandra is a prominent youngdy. Why would she take care of a stranger? There must be an ulterior motive," Nathaniel said.
Even Nathaniel thought so, which made Cecilia even more uneasy.
She wanted to go over to check things out, but Nathaniel stopped her.
"You''re pregnant, so it''s not suitable for you to go around. I''ll send someone to check on the situation."
"All right, then." Cecilia was also fearful that a prolonged car ride might affect her pregnancy.
