Cassandra had just woken up and answered impatiently, "We're no longer related. Why are you calling me?" "Givefive billion," Paula said directly.
Cassandra was stunned. "Five billion? What do you need that much money for?" "That's none of your concern." "Do you really think five billion can save you? Your illness is beyond curing." Hearing her biological daughter's cold words, Paula was filled with remorse. How had I never realized before that Cassandra was so heartless?
