When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel)

Chapter 441 Her Biological Mother

After the engagement party began, Cassandra werft on stage to thank her family. When she spoke about her mother, Paula perked up.

Paula was just about to step forward when Cecilia, in a gesture of kindness, stopped her.

“The Rainsworth family invited her biological mother, Queenie Jamieson.”

Having helped organize the engagement party, Cecilia was well aware of the proceedings.

Paula’s expression changed instantly when she heard that.

Just yesterday, Cassandra had personally told her that Queenie wouldn’t be attending and that Paula would be the one standing in the spotlight as her mother.

Paula thought Cecilia was deceiving her, but then she saw Queenie, appear before the crowd, walking toward Cassandra.

Short–haired and clad in a uniform, Queenie wasn’t particularly beautiful, but she exuded a sharp, capable air that a pampered woman like Paula could never possess.

Queenie was somewhat well–known internationally, and as soon as she appeared, Cassandra’s eyes filled with admiration and pride.
