After dealing with all of them, Cecilia felt drained.

“Lottie, the next time these calls come in, you should answer them. Make up an excuse and tell them I’m busy.” 

“Alright,” Charlotte readily agreed. 

After finishing work for the day, Cecilia didn’t rush home. Instead, she headed to the hospital. 

She stood at the entrance of the hospital room, hesitating to go in. 

Nonetheless, Caliste had noticed her arrival. “Ms. Cecilia, you’re here. Please, come in,” Caliste invited warmly. 

It wasn’t until Cecilia entered that she noticed Queenie’s complexion had worsened compared to her last visit. 

“Mdm. Queenie, how are you holding up?” 

Queenie only heard the show of concern, unbothered by the detached way Cecilia had addressed her. “I’m much better now,” she replied. “Come, sit with me.” 

After a moment of hesitation, Cecilia took a seat beside Queenie’s bed. 

Queenie yearned to reach out and touch Cecilia, yet she feared her daughter might disapprove. She lifted her hand, only to lower it again. 

–“Ceci, how has work been for you lately? Have you encountered anyone giving you a hard time?” 

Cecilia shook her head. “It’s pretty good. The senior management and shareholders are all taking good care 

of me.” 

That was a given, as Queenie had already instructed them to do so beforehand. 

These individuals were the ones most terrified of Queenie, and they were also the group that were most 

indebted to her. 

“That’s good to hear. If anyone dares to give you trouble, make sure to let me know. I’ll handle it.” 

Cecilia nodded in response. 

After a while, she couldn’t help but ask, “I’m curious, why did you decide to hand the company over to me?” 

Didn’t Queenie initially mention that she wanted to give half of the company to Cassandra? 

Queenie knew Cecilia had come to inquire about this matter, but she didn’t dare to reveal the truth. “No particular reason,” she said. “I just wanted to be a little selfish, to keep what’s mine for my own daughter.” 

Her own daughter… 

A strange sensation inexplicably rose within Cecilia. 

Afraid that she would refuse to accept it again, Queenie continued, “I’ve severed my mother–daughter

With her head lowered, Cecilia said, “Don’t you have Brooklyn? Perhaps you should hand over the company to her.” 

She believed she had done nothing to deserve such a thing, and she didn’t want to feel indebted to anyone, even if that person was her own biological mother. 

Queenie’s eyes inevitably reddened. 

She knew that Cecilia was unwilling to accept the inheritance, and alongside it, the fact that she was the latter’s biological mother. 

“Let’s put this matter aside for now. I need you to help me run the company in the meantime. Once my health improves, we can discuss it further.” 

“Alright.” Cecilia nodded. 

The back–and–forth between the two individuals stirred up immense jealousy in Cassandra, who was observing from outside.
