At that moment, she was merely waiting for the news of Queenie's death to arrive by tomorrow morning.

Overwhelmed with emotion, she didn't sleep all night. The next day, as morning broke, an unusual tranquility settled over the house.

After Cassandra had gotten up, she still hadn't seen Queenie, which left her feeling puzzled.

"Is my mother still not awake?" she asked the housekeeper.

The housekeeper's words sent a chill down her spine. "Mdm. Queenie has

requested that you visit the hospital once you've woken up."

"What?" Cassandra's pupils abruptly constricted. There's no way she should still be alive after she took yesterday's dosage!

Cassandra couldn't help but feel dazed. As she entered the car heading toward the hospital, her mind was filled with confusion.

Once she arrived in the ward, Cassandra discovered that Caliste and Grover were present in the room.

Queenie was comfortably seated on the hospital bed at that time. Not only had her health not deteriorated, but she surprisingly even seemed more radiant than before.

"Mom, when did you return to the hospital? Why didn't you tell me?" Cassandra asked with a hint of unease.

She had a vague feeling that something bad was about to happen.

Queenie looked at her with a chilling gaze. "Cassandra, I called you over to inform you that I'm severing our relationship as mother and daughter."

"What?!" Cassandra's body went limp, and she nearly fell to the ground.

“Mom, are you joking? What do you mean by severing our relationship? Did I upset you in any way? Or is this about the news on the internet?" She remembered the words Brooklyn said. "Mom, please don't be mad at me. I'll publicly apologize right now, and I guarantee it won't harm the reputation of Jamieson Group. I will also personally apologize to those three women and will definitely get their forgiveness."

As Cassandra spoke, she simultaneously observed the changes in Queenie's complexion.

Unlike her previous affectionate demeanor, Queenie wore an expression of indifference at that moment. "From now on, refrain from calling me mother. I refuse to acknowledge a daughter as cruel and ungrateful as you."

The color drained from Cassandra's face in an instant.

She knew that Queenie wasn't joking, so she immediately crouched down in front of the latter, her eyes filled with tears. "Mom, what's really going on? Why are you saying such things? I may be a bit stubborn and willful, but you raised me single- handedly. I may be tough on the outside, but I'm soft on the inside. Don't you understand me?"noveldrama

Queenie felt a bitterness in her throat as she forced a mocking smile.

"I used to think so, but it wasn't until now that I realized I was wrong." She turned

to Caliste. "Ms. Newton. show her the medical report from the hospital yesterday."

Caliste approached, pulling out a stack of appraisal documents from her briefcase.

The document clearly stated that Queenie's milk had been laced with a substantial amount of substances. Consuming those substances in excess could be lethal.

Cassandra looked at the words on the document, nearly collapsing on the ground.

"Mom, I've been wronged. It's all a misunderstanding," she pleaded.

Caliste simply couldn't bear it any longer. "Ms. Evans, no, Cassandra, this lab report is the analysis of the milk you gave to Mdm. Queenie last night! If we hadn't taken her to the hospital to have her stomach pumped, you would have already caused Mdm. Queenie's death!"

Cassandra glared at her fiercely. "You're talking nonsense. I didn't put anything in that cup of milk."

Seeing how stubborn and unrepentant Cassandra was, Caliste brought out another strip of medication. "This was found in your room this morning, after you

left."

At that point, all the evidence was irrefutable. It would be enough to send Cassandra to prison.
