Chapter 704 Blind Devotion

Cecilia hadn't expected such a response from Cassandra. This is the daughter that Paula loves to bits.

She had already reached the entrance of the hospital. Holding her mobile phone, she said to Cassandra, “I'm

here now.”

Upon hearing these words, Cassandra could no longer find any excuse.

“I'll be there soon,” she said, hanging up. She then instructed her assistant to prepare the car.

Inside the hospital, Paula fell unconscious for a long tbefore she awakened from the operation.

She opened her eyes, straining to look outside the window. Immediately, she spotted Cassandra, standing by the

balcony and engrossed in a phone call.

“Cassandra...”

Upon hearing the frail voice of Paula from behind, Cassandra put down her phone and walked toward her. “Mom,

you're awake.”

Paula nodded. “Hmm, were you the one who broughtto the hospital?”

Cassandra lied without batting an eyelid. “Yes, please refrain from wandering around aimlessly in the future. It's

too dangerous, understand?”

Not long after she arrived at the hospital, Cecilia had departed.

“Alright, whatever you say.”

Paula looked into Cassandra's eyes, which were filled with kindness..

Cassandra sat down. “Mom, have you given any thought to what | discussed with you? There's a cooling-off

period after divorce, you need to make a decision soon.”

Paula bowed his head in silence.

“Mom, what are you still worried about? If you're not willing, don’t we still have a month-long. cooling-off

period?” Cassandra was really tired of dragging things out.

“Fine.” Paula finally agreed.

As long as she could protect her assets and prevent Cecilia from getting her hands on them, at little humiliation

didn’t matter to her.

“Then, I'll take you and Dad to City Hall tomorrow.”

Cassandra’s face instantly lit up with joy as she engaged in lively banter with Paula.

After Cassandra was gone, the caregiver nearby couldn't bear it any longer. She turned to Paula and said, “I

simply can’t stand by and watch this, Mdm. Paula. The person who brought you to the hospital and has been

anxiously waiting outside the operating room this whole tisn’t her at all.”

Paula was puzzled. “If it wasn’t Cassandra, then who else could it be, Cecilia?”

She didn’t believe for a second that Cecilia would cto keep her company.

The nurse nodded. “Yes, it was Ms. Smith. Ms. Evans only arrived after your life was no longer in danger.”

After hearing this, Paula fell silent for a moment, then responded coolly.

“So what? Cassandra is the one who truly cares for me.”

The caregiver was utterly confused now. They are both her daughters, so why is she blatantly favoring one?

The caretaker paid her no mind, thinking to herself that Paula would surely suffer from her own mistakes.

The truth was clear to everyone but Paula, who was blindly devoted to Cassandra.

Cecilia was obviously not ignorant of that fact and never held out any hope. After Cassandra arrived at the

hospital, she left.

To her, she was simply fulfilling her filial duty.

After all, from a legal standpoint, she was indeed responsible for taking care of Paula.

In the evening, Cecilia and Elliot paid their respects to Regas before returning home.

Nathaniel had been waiting at hfor quite stime, and dinner was long ready.

After learning about the earlier incident with Paula from Elliot, he couldn't help but ask Cecilia, “Did she hurt

you?”

Shaking her head, Cecilia said, “No, she’s not in any condition to hurt me. She doesn’t even have the energy to

scold me.”

Only then did Nathaniel feel at ease, reaching out his hand.

Cecilia watched as his slender hand reached out, finding it somewhat peculiar.

“What are you doing?”

“Giveyour hand.”

Bewildered, Cecilia raised her hand, which was immediately seized by Nathaniel, who gently caressed it.

Nathaniel’s lips curled slightly. “Mmm-hmm, I just wanted to hold your hand.”

Sitting off to the side, Elliot cringed at his parents’ public display of affection.

He was about to protest when the ring of Cecilia’s phone preempted him.

Cecilia hastily withdrew her hand to answer the call, her eyes narrowing at the sight of the caller ID on her phone «
