Chapter 1818 Good News
Yuliana beamed. “Thank you, Cecilia!”

Her response left Bethany and Alphonse a little bewildered. At first, they had noticed Yuliana didn't seem too fond of Cecilia. How did things change so quickly?

But seeing the two sisters grow closer filled them with joy. “You two need to get along and not quarrel,” Bethany advised.

Yuliana nodded eagerly. “Don't worry! I'll do whatever Cecilia says—I won't make her mad.”

Cecilia added, “Yes, Granny, don't worry.”

Bethany chuckled. “All right, all right.”

That evening, Cecilia prepared some of Tudela's local specialties for the elders. Early the next morning, the family saw them off at the airport, waving as they departed. Queenie didn't leave with them. Instead, she chose to stay in Tudela for a while.

In Tudela, she had been living separately from Cecilia, which made it easier to hide her illness from her. But what she didn't realize was that Cecilia already knew her secret. “Mom, why don't you just stay with us?” Cecilia suggested as Queenie prepared to leave.

Queenie shook her head. “No, I'm just an old woman. I don't want to interfere in you young people's lives. I'll come visit when I can.”

Cecilia didn't want her to leave. She gently grabbed her mother's arm. “Then I'll come live with you,” she said.

All she wanted now was to spend more time with her mother—she didn't want to have any regrets.

Queenie sensed something was off. “What's wrong?” she asked.

“Nothing... I was just thinking, ever since we reunited, we haven't really spent time together. I just want to make up for that now.”

A wave of sorrow washed over Queenie, and for a moment, she was speechless. She patted Cecilia's back. “All right. I'll come see you every day from now on.”
