Chapter 644 Being Exposed

A surprised Moana was then pulled aside for a private conversation. Whatever was said during that exchange

remained unknown, but she quickly agreed to take care of Cassandra.

Cecilia enjoyed a good night's sleep without Moana’s presence. The next day upon waking up, she spent her

tcomposing music and relaxing with a book.

There wasn’t much going on at the moment except for the lawsuit against Paula and Magnus, as well as the

upcoming election for the president of the parents’ association next Monday.

It was in the afternoon when a phone call disrupted her leisure.

The call had cfrom jail, stating that Paula wanted to see her.

“Understood.”

After hanging up, Cecilia headed toward the detention center.

She arrived an hour later.

She had initially assumed that Paula was leading a miserable life. Surprisingly, there was no change in the

latter's attire or appearance. Even her hair had been styled in a new way.

“What did you want from me?” Cecilia's voice was indifferent.

Paula glanced at the scar on her face, feeling no sympathy. “How much money will it take for you to drop the

charges?” she asked candidly.

“All of Dad's inheritance, of course.”

“What kind of joke is this? | must receive half of your father’s inheritance! | was his wife, after all! You, at most,

can only share the remaining half with Magnus, Paula demanded.

Cecilia found the term “wife” particularly grating when it cfrom such a woman.

“His wife? Have you forgotten, Mdm. Paula? The Smith family fortune was my father’s pre- marital asset. You

can’t possibly claim half of it. You're only entitled to the earnings accumulated. during the years you were

married to my father.”

Paula choked.

“Are you trying to push your brother andto our limits? | am your mother, and Magnus is your own brother!”

Seeing Cecilia remain unfazed, she began to play the sympathy card. “If | were to die, how many loved ones

would you have left in this world? Besides, Regas loved Magnus andso much. Do you think he’d actually

allow you to take away all his assets and leave us with nothing?”

Cecilia listened to her accusations with a blank expression. Only after she finished speaking, did he respond.

“I know Cassandra is your biological daughter. She's just over a year older than me. | also recall my father

mentioning that | was born a year after you and he got married.”

A bomb went off in Paula’s mind, and she stared at Cecilia in astonishment.

Not paying her astoundment any heed. Cecilia continued. “Before you got pregnant with me. surely you at least

took a short break after having Cassandra, right?”

Paula instantly felt her blood boil and was about to strike Cecilia.

Cecilia seized her wrist and shook it off firmly. “What's the matter? Upset because I've exposed you? Shouldn't |

be the one who's angry? You betrayed my father and yet had the audacity to use his love for you as an excuse.

Do you think I'm still the obedient little girl who used to follow your every command:”

Paula stumbled backward and sat down on her chair. Suddenly, she felt pain and dizziness in her head,

accompanied by a knife-twisting kind of ache in her abdomen.

Bearing her discomfort, she pointed at Cecilia. “Don’t talk cr*p. | favor Cassandra simply because she’s more

competent and dutiful than you are. She’s not related toby blood at all.”

If Queenie were to find out that Cassandra was actually Paula’s daughter, she would no longer favor the girl.

Queenie was her own harshest critic; how could she cto terms with the fact that the girl she had raised from

infancy was actually the daughter of a woman who had usurped her position?

Cecilia noticed something off about the woman’s demeanor. There was no one else around, so why wouldn't she

admit it?

Is she worried about something?

“I've already gotten the DNA test results,” she continued.

Utterly panicking. Paula glared fiercely at her. “What on earth are you trying to do? If you dare cause Cassandra «

any harm, | swear on my life Ill drag you down to hell with me!”
