When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 1235 Trying To Be Someone She Is Not

Fearing she might upset Queenie, the assistant added, “But it’s understandable, considering that Ms. Cassina wasn’t raised by your side.”

Queenie knew the assistant was trying to reassure her, but it didn’t quite case her doubts. She pressed. further. “Do you think Cassandra resembles me at all?”

The assistant hesitated, remaining quiet for a moment. She knew how selfish and manipulative Cassandra was, relying on Queenie to clean up lier messes whenever she failed.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

They were nothing alike. Queenie had built her success through resilience and determination, whereas Cassandra constantly leaned on others.

After a long pause, the assistant finally said, “Ms. Cassandra is definitely beautiful, and she has a rebellious streak like you did in your younger days.” That was the only comparison she could make.

Queenie, known for her sharp intuition, sighed. “It seems neither of my daughters take after me. But that’s normal, right? People say even siblings born of the same parents differ from each other.”

The assistant tentatively asked, “Would you like me to arrange for a DNA test?”

Queenie hesitated before shaking her head. “No, let’s not. If Cassie found out I had doubts and was testing her, it would break her heart. She’s my daughter. That’s all that matters.”

The assistant nodded, sensing it wasn’t her place to argue further. Queenie dismissed her with a wave and made her way upstairs to the presidential suite.

Inside the suite, Cassina was anxiously trying to reach her biological mother, her phone pressed to her ear as she nibbled on some food.

“Why haven’t she picked up? What if something’s wrong?” she muttered to herself, unaware that Queenie, had already entered the room.

“What’s the matter?” Queenie asked, concerned.

Startled, Cassina quickly responded, “Mom, I’ve been trying to reach my adoptive mother, but I can’t get through. I’m worried something’s happened.”

Despite her attachment to her newfound wealth, Cassina’s heart still ached for her biological mother

Queenie, surprised by Cassina’s concern, immediately offered, “I’ll have someone check on her for you. Don’t worry.

Relieved, Cassina nodded. “Thank you.”

Queenie smiled softly. “We’re family. There’s no need to thank me. Now, eat something. You’ll feel better.”

“Okay,” Cassina replied, sitting down again and continuing to eat. She looked up at Queenie, her voice filled with emotion. “Mom, before I met you, I never tasted food like this. I feel so lucky now.”

Queenie’s heart swelled with affection. “From now on, you’ll never go without. When I retire, Tll cook for you myself.”
