Chapter 785 A Spam Call
Recently, Queenie had returned to Tudela to negotiate business deals.
Today, Cassandra was having lunch with her. She personally served her food and water. “Mom, have
more.”
“Mm,” Queenie responded, feeling comforted.
However, the peaceful moment was abruptly interrupted by the sound of a phone ringing.
Cassandra picked up her phone and saw that it was Paula calling. She pressed decline and put her phone back into her bag, unaware that she had accidentally answered the call instead of hanging up.
Because the phone was now inside her bag, she couldn’t hear Paula speaking.
“Who was it?” Queenie asked. “Why didn’t you answer?
“Oh, just a spam call,” Cassandra replied casually.
Not hearing Cassandra’s response, Paula was about to hang up and call again when she overheard the conversation between Queenie and Cassandra.
A spam call?
Paula quickly realized that Cassandra had answered the call by mistake.
Curious, she decided to listen in and hear what Cassandra and Queenie talked about.
“Mom, this foie gras is really delicious. I had it specially ordered in advance and flown in.”
“Mm.” Queenie nodded, taking a small bite.
Suddenly remembering something, she asked, “Cassandra, I heard Paula was diagnosed with cancer?”
“Yeah, late–stage cancer. The doctor said she won’t live more than two years,” Cassandra replied bluntly.
Knowing Queenie disliked Paula, she continued, “It’s karma. She stole Dad from you, and now she’s got
cancer.”
She had no idea that every word was being heard by Paula on the other end.
Queenie let out a scornful laugh. “Cassandra, you have to understand, Paula didn’t take Ralph away from me. I didn’t want Ralph anymore, got it?”
Back then, Queenie had married Ralph only to appease certain members of the Jamieson family.
Additionally, Ralph had been easy to control, and her feelings were never involved.
Even so, she despised betrayal.
“I misspoke, Mom. A woman like Paula could never compare to you,” Cassandra said, disdainfully taking a bite of her food. “You have no idea how disgusting it feels every time I have to call her ‘Mom‘ in front of others. I just wish she’d hurry up and die!”

Queenie looked at her daughter fondly. “Good girl.”
The two of them continued chatting for a while, but Paula wasn’t listening anymore.

She stood frozen in place, her mind a complete blank. It wasn’t until the caregiver came over to bring her food that she finally snapped back to ended the call.

The caregiver brought in the food. She couldn’t help but sigh upon seeing that she was the only one by Paula’s side.
“Eat something.”
“No, I’m not hungry,” Paula replied.
“You have to eat, even if you don’t feel like it. Your body’s already in bad shape the caregiver gently coaxed.
Paula, for once, didn’t get angry. “I really don’t feel like eating. Just leave it over there.”
Sensing that Paula seemed like a different person today, the caregiver didn’t push further, fearing she might upset her. She quietly placed the meal aside and left.

Update new chapters please...
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...
