NovelEnglishChapter 667 Just A Bag
Upon hearing Magnus’ words, Nicholas responded calmly, “We must respect your sister's decision.”
At that moment, Magnus felt the urge to kidnap Cecilia and marry her off to Nicholas.
“Nicholas, I'm not sure if you're aware, but when Cecilia married Nathaniel, not only did he fail to support our
family, he even targeted us, leading to the downfall of the Smith family.”
Even until then, Magnus still didn't believe that the downfall of the Smith family was his own fault.
He had forgotten about the times when his mother used to frequently visit Rainsworth Manor, asking for money.
He had also forgotten that it was he who had willingly handed over the company and his father’s inheritance to
others.
“Don’t worry. I'll certainly take good care of you in the future,” Nicholas said.
Magnus nodded heavily, his eyes filled with emotion.
He was determined to make a nfor himself, to show those who had once looked down on him just what he
was capable of.

As a son, why isn’t Magnus taking care of his own mother? Why should it fall uponto shoulder such
responsibility?
Cassandra picked up her phone and started venting to her father, Ralph.
She wasn't aware that Paula, at the moment, was struggling to catch up with her because she had left her
handbag behind. Just as Paula was about to hand over the handbag, she heard Cassandra say, “She wet the bed.
It was utterly disgusting. You wouldn't believe how close | was to throwing up when | walked in. I've never had to
look after Queenie before, and now I'm expected to care for her? Even her own son doesn’t want to take care of
her. This is ridiculous. If it weren't for her imminent-"
Before Cassandra could finish her sentence, she suddenly turned around and saw Paula standing nearby.
She hastily ended the call, forcing a smile..
“Mom, what are you going out here? Aren't you supposed to be resting?” Cassandra rushed forward, her face
filled with concern. There wasn’t even a hint of disdain for Paula in her expression.
For a moment, Paula doubted if he had misheard earlier.
She didn’t say much. Instead, she handed over the bag. “Cassandra, you forgot your bag. | brought it out for
you.”
Cassandra accepted the bag without any sense of guilt.
“Thanks, Mom,” she said. “I should get going now. Take care of yourself and go back now.”
She settled into the car, a sigh of relief washing over her.
Perhaps she didn’t hear it? If she had, how could she possibly not question me?
With that, Cassandra casually instructed the driver to drive off.

Both she and Paula failed to notice a familiar figure sitting inside a black sedan not far from them.
Cecilia remained seated in the backseat, as she never left.
She initially intended to wait outside, curious to see if Cassandra and Paula would slip up and reveal anything.
However, she hadn't expected to witness such a “touching” scene.
The car window was opaque from the outside, so no one could see her inside. However, she had a clear view of
everything happening outside.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe had witnessed how Cassandra privately scorned Paula. Yet, she also saw how Paula, despite her discomfort,
insisted on delivering the handbag to Cassandra.
It's just a handbag.
Cecilia gently tightened her grip, her gaze lingering on Paula's hunched back as the latter made her way into the
hospital.
“So, you're just an ordinary mother after all, just not to me,” she murmured to herself.
It seemed as though Paula sensed someone watching her. When she turned around, she saw a black sedan
slowly driving away.
For reasons unknown, she felt a dull ache in her heart at that moment.
She pressed her hand against her chest, murmuring to herself, “What's happening to me?”
Two caregivers cover to assist her. “Are you alright? Lettake you back.”
With a prideful expression, Paula swiftly shook off their hands.
