Chapter 744 A Regular Ward
“Ceci, the court has already frozen all of Paula’s assets, but according to them, there’s currently less than ten million left in her account.”
After having breakfast, Cecilia received a phone call from Norman.
In truth, they had known about this news for quite some time.
Because Cecilia had been secretly getting people to spy on Paula, she knew the latter had given all her money to Cassandra.
“What’s surprising is that the Evans family’s account doesn’t have much money left–say about two hundred million.” This was something that even Norman had not anticipated.
To think the Evans family’s large company had such a limited amount of liquid assets.
“Did they transfer it ahead of time?” Cecilia asked.
“It’s unlikely,” Norman answered. “After all, we’ve had our people keeping watch all this time, and we also have our insiders within Evans Group.”
“Well, that’s their own business to handle.”
Cecilia gazed out the window. “Don’t worry. Whatever amount we can get, that’s what we’ll have. It’s better than getting nothing at all.”
“Got it.”
Norman hung up.
It had been almost a week since Cecilia last saw Paula, and she was now somewhat curious about how she
was doing.
Meanwhile, at the hospital, Paula had been relocated from a VIP ward to a regular one.
She confronted the caregiver furiously, “Who gave you permission to change my room? How the hell can anyone live in such a cramped and miserable–looking space?”
The caregiver was at a loss.
“I didn’t ask to have your room changed, Mdm. Paula. I was your family’s decision.”
Paula’s mind reeled.
“You’re spouting nonsense! It’s not like the Evans family is strapped for cash! How could they possibly move me to a standard ward?”
Why don’t you give them a call yourself, then? That way, you’ll find out, won’t you?”
The caregiver wasn’t at all fond of this woman who was completely deluded and yet continued to behave so haughtily.
Paula grabbed her phone and dialed Cassandra’s number while berating the caregiver all the while. “Your

It took a while for the call to get through. Once connected, Cassandra’s impatient tone could be heard.
“Is something wrong, Mom?”
Upon hearing her voice, Paula instantly felt reassured. “Cassandra, the caregiver just moved me to a regular ward. I want her fired this instant. I can’t get used to living here. I want to move back to where I was before.”
Cassandra appeared visibly irritated upon hearing this. “Mom, you’re probably not aware, but thanks to your beloved daughter, Cecilia, Evans Group is now under investigation. All our assets have been frozen.”
“What?” Paula couldn’t believe her ears.
Cassandra continued, “And your medical bills are like a bottomless pit, so don’t set your expectations too high. Just make do with what you have.”
Though Paula deeply cherished her daughter, she certainly also loved herself–perhaps a little too much.
How could she bear to stay in a cramped general ward, let alone one that had just welcomed a new patient?

The readers' comments on the novel: When Her Death Couldn't Break Him
Thank you 😊 for the work...
Save us the distress from waiting or we are opting for others...
Hi, good morning Could you please send more chapters? To much books reading and I always forgot the story when it comes. All characters have the same name ( Cecilia, Nathaniel, Madaline, Fabian… )and lots of the names are similar in the same story, so I got confused when I don’t have all story already written. If at least you can send 10 chapters a day…. This story is as good as Mission to Remarry I can’t wait for finish it. But let’s have a great finish and a final chapter with one year of deepest love development. Thank you! Please,please, please!!!!...
What's going on? Why so few chapters?...
This chapter is completely useless!...
Why all chapters are not until the end? The new ones are never the continuation of the previous one. Also, Could you please do not use the "swnovel.net" as a water mark on the paragraphs? I use a listening device and those paragraphs are not readable....
More chapters, please 🙏...
What's going on? Is not Cassandra married? What is she doing in her mother's House?...
Waiting for more chapters...
Thank you for the update and anticipate more. Love Elliot in this novel the most <3...
