When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 1683

Chapter 1683 Was It A Food Allergy Or Poisoning 

After all, Queenie was her biological mother. Only then did Caliste relax a little. 

Cassandra, however, wasn’t about to let things slide. Her voice dripped with sarcasm as she said, “Cecilia, you’re staying behind, huh? Worried you won’t get your share of the inheritance if something happens to Mom?” 

Initially, Cecilia had no intention of engaging in an argument, but Cassandra’s relentless provocation left her no choice. 

Cecilia accepted the jab without much fuss. “Yeah, after all, Mdm. Queenie is my biological mother. It’s only fair that I inherit her estate, don’t you think? Besides, Mdm. Queenie herself mentioned that she left a will. Half of it is mine.” 

She paused briefly, her expression calm. “And what if something happened to her while I wasn’t here? Someone might tamper with the will.” 

“You!” Cassandra raised her hand in fury, ready to strike Cecilia. 

Sven, who had been standing silently by her side, wasn’t going to let that happen. With a swift movement, he grabbed Cassandra’s wrist and, with a subtle flick, sent her stumbling back several steps. She nearly fell. 

“Cecilia, are you just waiting for Mom to die?” Cassandra spat angrily. 

Cecilia didn’t react to the accusation. Her gaze remained calm as she turned her attention to the operating room. 

Finally, the doors of the operating room swung open, and a nurse wheeled Queenie out. 

Cassandra shot up from her seat and asked hurriedly, “Doctor, how’s my mother doing?” 

The doctor looked at them with a solemn expression. “What did Mdm. Queenie eat last night and early this morning?” 

The question made Cassandra’s mind spin. “It was just food,” she replied, her voice trembling slightly. 

The doctor nodded thoughtfully. “Have someone bring us a sample of the food she ate,” he suggested.

“For now, she’s stabilized, but it might take time for her to regain consciousness,” the doctor explained. “I suspect she consumed something unclean, which caused her condition to relapse.”
