When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 1814

Chapter 1814 Completely Fooled
Cecilia sat down and looked at Yuliana. “Start from the beginning,” she said. “Tell me everything you know. If you lie, I'll have the police investigate.”

Yuliana swallowed hard, trying to collect her thoughts. She told Cecilia everything about her meetings with Cassandra, not leaving out a single detail. By the time she finished, Cecilia was stunned.

Yuliana had been completely fooled.

“Cassandra has tried to kill my mother multiple times. And yet, you still trusted her enough to bring her food to my mother?” Cecilia asked, her voice laced with disbelief.

Tears streamed down Yuliana's cheeks. “I thought it was just a rumor. I believed that Aunt Queenie only wanted her real daughter back and that you were making up lies about Cassandra.”

“And now?” Cecilia pressed.

Yuliana wiped her eyes and shook her head. “I was wrong. I should've seen it sooner. I never wanted to hurt Aunt Queenie.”

She grabbed Cecilia's hand. “You need to take her to the hospital right away.”

Cecilia pulled her hand away. “You expect me to just believe everything you say? For all I know, you could be lying. Maybe you were working with Cassandra all along.”

Yuliana's face drained of all color.

“Even if you didn't know what was in the food, you still helped her. That makes you an accomplice,” Cecilia said sharply.

“I-I...” Yuliana opened her mouth but couldn't find the words.

“Even an accomplice risks facing jail time. You should be more worried about yourself,” Cecilia added before walking past her.

“Yuliana collapsed to the floor, her body weak and trembling.

Her mind spun.”
