Chapter 786 Far More Important Than Queenie
“Do you really hate me that much, Cassandra? Do you truly want me to die soon?” Paula whispered from under the covers, afraid that the person in the next bed might overhear her.
Her voice was especially hoarse.
Thinking back, Paula couldn’t help but feel heartbroken. The daughter she had always been proud of, the one she had loved unconditionally and even compromised her own principles for, had just told her adoptive mother how much she despised her, found her repulsive, and even wished for her early death!
It was perhaps only at this moment that Paula could fully understand the harsh words she had once spoken to Cecilia.
“Mom, you misunderstood,” Cassandra quickly lied, trying to cover her tracks. “Queenie was with me earlier. You know how much she dislikes you. I had to lie to please her. Don’t take what I said seriously. You’re my real mother. You’re far more important than Queenie, right?”
Paula no longer believed a word Cassandra said.
Her eyes grew colder. “Am I really more important than Queenie?”
“Of course.”
“Then go and tell Queenie the truth–that I’m actually your biological mother, that I gave birth to you,” Paula demanded.
Cassandra’s eyes narrowed. She nearly called Paula a crazy woman.
“Mom, are you joking? If Queenie knew I was your biological daughter, do you think she’d still leave the Jamieson family inheritance to me?”
Paula clenched her phone tightly. “What’s more important? That money or your own mother?”
“Mom, listen. Once Queenie has written her will and is close to dying, I’ll tell her the truth, okay?” Cassandra offered.
“She won’t even die before I do!” Paula said, deeply disappointed. “If you don’t have the courage to tell Queenie, then I will.”
At this, Cassandra finally dropped her long–hidden mask.
“Don’t you dare!” she shouted.
Paula was startled by her sudden outburst.

Cassandra quickly softened her tone. “Mom, if you tell Queenie, I’ll kill myself! Without the Jamieson
family fortune, I’ll be nothing. Dad already took all of the Evans family’s money. Do you want me to end up on the streets?”
Paula’s heart softened once again.
“1…”

Cassandra scoffed bitterly. “Everyone knows my success was bought by Queenie. Do you really think I have your talent? If I had your talent, I wouldn’t have chosen to get married and have children!”
Her words cut Paula deeply, leaving her defenseless.
Cassandra was essentially blackmailing her with her own life, forcing Paula to keep quiet about the truth. Once again, Paula had to compromise her principles.
It really seemed like this world had a way of making everyone meet their match.
Noticing Paula talking quietly under the covers, the caregiver guessed she was speaking to her ungrateful daughter.
“Mdm. Paula, not to meddle, but we really shouldn’t favor one child over others.”
Paula lifted the blanket, her lips pale. “You don’t understand.”

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...
