Chapter 1592 Queenie Invites Cecilia


    Queenie couldn''t help but feel that the more she interacted with Cecilia, the more difficult it became to distance herself from her.


    Troubled, Cecilia hesitated before speaking. "I''m sorry, I don''t want to go."


    The disappointment was clear on Queenie''s face. She didn''t want to miss the chance to grow closer to her daughter. "Do you have any free time tomorrow? It''s the weekend," she suggested hopefully. Before Cecilia could respond, Queenie pressed on, "Could you possibly swing by my office? I have something to give you."


    "Um..." Cecilia hesitated. "What is it?"


    "You''ll find out when you get here," Queenie said, her voice insistent. "Please, you muste."


    The morning air had a slight chill to it, and Queenie began to cough softly. She quickly pulled out a handkerchief to cover her mouth, her frailty momentarily evident.


    A pang of sympathy stirred in Cecilia. Without thinking, she agreed, her tone softening. "All right."


    "Then it''s settled," said Queenie.


    "Sure." Cecilia nodded.


    Only after watching Cecilia disappear into the distance did Queenie finally settle into the car. As she sat down, she unfolded the handkerchief she had been gripping tightly, revealing a vivid red stain of blood. "You''re coughing up blood?" Caliste asked, her voice filled with rm.


    Queenie offered a bitter smile, her expression calm despite the situation. "It''s been like this for a while now. It''s nothing new."


    "Mdm. Queenie, we can''t just ignore this. You should go to the hospital," Caliste urged, her concern evident.


    Queenie shook her head slowly. "There''s no need. With my condition, even if I went, how many more years do you think I have left? There''s no point in dragging it out."


    Caliste''s eyes brimmed with sympathy, but she still tried to protest. "But-"


    Queenie cut her off with a wave of her hand. "The will that Grover has been drafting should be nearly finished by now," she said, her tone resolute. "Tomorrow, have him bring it to the office." Caliste nodded thoughtfully before asking, "Should we inform Ms. Cassandra?"


    Queenie hesitated, her gaze distant as she pondered the question. After a moment of silence, she sighed.


    "Forget it. Cassandra is too self-centered. If she finds out about the will now, she''ll definitely stir up trouble. It''s better to let her know after I''m gone."


    "All right."

    Now that Lucille had moved out, only Madeline, Charlotte, Nathaniel, Sven, Elliot, and Cecilia remained in the Rainsworth Manor.


    Early in the morning, Elliot came knocking. "Mommy, where are we going to y today?"


    His excitement was evident-he had been looking forward to spending the weekend with her.


    Cecilia knelt down to his level and gently exined, "I''m sorry, Eli. Mommy promised to meet someone today, so I need to step out for a bit."


    Disappointment clouded Elliot''s expression, hisrge eyes gazing at her with a pleading look. "Mommy, who did you promise? Where are you going?" Nathaniel approached.


    Cecilia saw no reason to keep secrets from them and said, "I''m heading to Mdm. Queenie''spany."


    "The witch granny''s ce?" Elliot blurted out without hesitation.


    Wolf granny?


    Cecilia blinked, caught off guard. "Who taught you to call her that?"


    Without answering directly, Elliot threw his arms around her. "Oh, Mommy, don''t worry about who taught me. But if you''re going there, you have to take me with you."


    "Why?" Cecilia asked, her brows furrowed in confusion.


    Elliot clung to her tightly, his voice soft but serious. "Because I''m afraid she''ll hurt you. If you bring me, can protect you."


    Before Cecilia could respond, Elliot turned toward Nathaniel, his expression defiant. "Isn''t that right, sc*mbag daddy?"


    Nathaniel shared the same concern about Cecilia going there alone. "Right, I''ll take you both," he said firmly.


    What started as a solo visit had now turned into a family outing. With both Nathaniel and Elliot insisting on joining, Cecilia found it impossible to refuse. Meeting their determined gazes, she sighed softly.


    "All right, let''s go together then. I''ll let her know."


    Cecilia called Queenie to exin the situation. She even added, "If it''s inconvenient for them toe along, we can just forget about it."


    But Queenie was overjoyed at the mention of her son-inw and grandsoning over. Her voice brimmed with enthusiasm. "Wonderful! Let them alle. The more, the merrier! Today, I''ll treat you all to a delicious meal," she eximed, unable to hide her excitement. 6.6K
