When Her Death Couldn't Break Him novel Chapter 485

Chapter 485 Never Been In A Relationship Before
The car came to a halt just a centimeter away from Cecilia.

Cecilia's pupils slightly contracted, yet she remained composed.

There were surveillance cameras around, and she doubted that Queenie would have the audacity to lay a hand on her so openly.

Queenie studied the beautiful, composed woman before her. If it weren't for Cassandra, she might have felt a twinge of pity.

“Do you really want to make my daughter your enemy?” she asked.

“There's nothing between Nicholas and me—never has been, never will be,” Cecilia replied firmly. How could I possibly choose Nicholas when I've already decided to be with Nathaniel?

Moreover, even if she weren't with Nathaniel, she certainly wouldn't choose Nicholas, especially with several children to consider.

“You'd better mean what you say,” Queenie threatened Cecilia.

She then gave instructions to her subordinate, signaling the driver to depart.

On the road, Queenie glanced at Cecilia in the rearview mirror and couldn't resist lighting a cigarette.

At that moment, it was hard to tell if Cecilia was being genuine or if it was all just a facade.

Queenie then made a lengthy call to Elena, the content of which remained unknown.

That very night, Elena invited Cassandra to stay at Rainsworth Manor, planning to celebrate the New Year together in a few days.

Cassandra had always known her foster mother had tricks up her sleeve, but she never expected even Elena, the renowned Iron Lady of Tudela, to be under Queenie's influence.

She called Queenie. “Mom, you really are something. Thank you.”

Queenie responded with a grin. “I already warned Cecilia. By the looks of it, she wouldn't dare harbor any ulterior motives toward Nicholas again.”

Cassandra was somewhat displeased. She just warned Cecilia? That's all?

“Mom, did she fool you with her innocent act? You know she's two-faced,” Cassandra exaggerated. “She assured me before that she had no connection with Nicholas, but not long after, she still met with him in secret.”

Queenie lit a cigarette, her attractive brows knitting at Cassandra's words. “Really? Is she truly that cunning?”
