Chapter 1595 Giving Cecilia Half The Propertynoveldrama

Queenie was at a loss for words. "Ceci, all of this is what you rightfully deserve."

Brooklyn quickly added, "Exactly. You're Queenie's flesh and blood. If she doesn't give it to you, who else would she give it to?"

Grover, who had been quietly observing, was also impressed. To be indifferent to such a massive fortune, one either had to be pretending or truly not care about money. Cecilia lowered her gaze, her voice soft. "To be honest, still can't believe my mother could be someone else. It all feels like a dream."

Though Paula hadn't been particularly kind to her, she had always been the mother in Cecilia's memories.

Now, with the revelation that her true mother was Queenie, she found it difficult to accept. The vast wealth Queenie had offered only added to her sense of unease and stress.

"Are you still holding a grudge against me, Cecilia?" Queenie's voice trembled, her eyes brimming with tears. "Or do you think I shouldn't have shared the money with Cassandra?" Cecilia was momentarily taken aback by the question.

Queenie continued, her tone softer now, "I raised Cassandra myself. The love I have for you is just as deep as the love I have for her."

For a moment, Cecilia didn't know how to respond.

Nathaniel, watching her closely, could sense the frustration in her..

Ceci will never think that way.

He knew her well enough to understand that she wasn't the type to fight over matters like this.

Nathaniel spoke up. "Mdm. Queenie, you're overthinking it. All of my wealth belongs to my wife-she will never want for money."

His wealth far exceeded that of the Jamieson family.

Queenie paused, taking a moment to regain her composure,

"That's not what I meant," Queenie stammered.

Nathaniel raised an eyebrow, his voice calm but pointed. "What exactly do you mean, then? Is that why you asked us to come today? If so, it's unnecessary. Ceci doesn't care about your share of the property. You can give it all to Cassandra if that's what you want." It took a beat for Queenie to process his words. Realizing the absurdity of her earlier statement, she stammered, "I didn't mean that, Ceci," but struggled to find the right words to clarify.

Fortunately, Brooklyn, quick to act, interjected, "Ceci, Nathaniel, what are you two talking about? Queenie specifically told you this because she didn't want you to overthink. She hasn't even shared this with Cassandra. You can't compare Cassandra to Ceci-one is my biological niece, the other is adopted. Blood ties always hold more significance. In my heart, my biological niece will always come first."

Brooklyn's affection for Cassandra stemmed from her deep loyalty to Queenie, but her fondness for Cecilia was sincere and genuine.

Queenie, flustered, quickly added, "Yes, exactly. I was just worried you'd overthink everything."

Cecilia stood up. "It's fine, I don't mind. If there's nothing else, we should head back."

Nathaniel called for Elliot, "Eli, let's go."

Elliot caught up with Nathaniel and waved at the group, "Goodbye, we're not short of money!"

The family left, and Queenie wished she could have stopped them, but the words caught in her throat.

Grover, sensing the moment, asked if he could leave as well. After receiving her nod of approval, he departed too.

Once everyone was gone, Queenie was left feeling a deep sense of regret. "What did I say earlier? I've probably given her the wrong impression."

Brooklyn, ever blunt, responded, "If it were me, I'd only pass my wealth down to my own daughter. As for an adopted one, raising her is already a kindness. If she thinks she can claim my assets, she's delusional." Queenie's gaze softened as she reflected, "But Cassandra has been with me all these years..." Despite her usual toughness with outsiders, Queenie found it hard to be harsh with those she had grown close to. Brooklyn, about why Cassandra was always targeting Ceci back then? Could it really have been just about Ceci and Nicholas?"

ensing her inner conflict, sighed heavily before continuing, "Queenie, have you ever thought

Queenie stared at her, still processing the idea. "What do you mean?"

Brooklyn's expression hardened. "Could it be that Cassandra knew about Ceci's true identity all along and used you as a pawn to create trouble for her?"
