Chapter 747 Dealing With Her Own Hardships
Paula never expected that when Cecilia cover, it was merely to hand her three hundred. thousand. In the
past, that amount wouldn't even be enough for her to gamble once, let alone match the cost of one of her
previous handbags.
“Are you kidding me? What can one possibly do with three hundred thousand?”
Cecilia looked at her calmly. “In an average household, three hundred thousand could cover the down payment
for a house. How could it not be enough for you to use in a month? | don’t have any more than this.”
Cecilia added before she left, “Don’t waste your energy suing me. I've consulted with a lawyer. I've been giving
you three hundred thousand a month, fulfilling my duty to provide for my parents. Even if you sue, it won't make
a difference.”
“You jerk!”
Paula was about to rise from her sickbed to confront her.
The caregiver hurriedly stopped her, lowering her voice, “Mdm. Paula, please calm down. | had. just received a
call from Cassandra not too long ago. She askedto resign, even stating she won't be payinganymore.”

The caregiver's face was grim. “Don’t you get it yet? She doesn’t want to deal with you anymore.”
Paula collapsed heavily back onto the hospital bed, the pain in her abdomen intensifying. She was in such agony
that she couldn't even move.
“Quick call the doctor...”
The caregiver noticed that her pants were already stained red with fresh blood.
She immediately activated the emergency aid.
Doctors and nurses arrived promptly.
Before Cecilia could leave the hospital, she saw doctors and nurses hurrying toward the room she had just
exited. She couldn’t help but stop in her tracks.
Turning around, she quickly spotted Paula being wheeled out of the ward and headed toward the operating room.
The caregiver also cout and upon seeing that Cecilia was still there, she immediately informed her.
“Ms. Smith, your mother just had a severe hemorrhage and she’s currently unconscious une to the intense pain.
Upon hearing those words, Cecilia's hand involuntarily clenched, her facial expression remained unchanged.
A complex look crossed her eyes before she explained to the caregiver, “She and | had severed. our mother-
daughter relationship a long tago. Apart from our blood ties, we're not related.”
The caregiver couldn't help but express her shock mother-daughter bond? A mother is always a monow deep
must the resentment be to sever a no matter what mistakes she may have made. You shouldn't speak like that.
After all, she gave birth to you.”
The simple phrase, “she gave birth to you,” held a moral weight that burdened Cecilia for half her life.
Her eyes were red as she let out a cold laugh. “Do you really think | would have chere to give money to a
woman who never treatedlike her daughter, if it weren't for the fact that she gave birth to me?”
After Martha's death, no one understood what she had gone through..
Cecilia didn’t expect the caregiver to understand her. She turned her head toward the window, hiding her
vulnerability from others.
“Do you think | didn’t want to treat her well? Do you think | was reluctant to spend money to move her to a
better hospital room?”

Her clenched fists trembled slightly, as she held back from voicing the embarrassing things Paula had done in
the past.
The caregiver soon realized that the woman before her was dealing with hardships. Being at mother herself, she
couldn't comprehend a mother not loving her own daughter. Gently patting the Cecilia's arm, she comforted,
“Sweetheart, don’t be upset. If she doesn’t love you, it’s her loss.”
Cecilia didn’t say anything further.
She pulled out another business card and handed it to the caregiver. “My number is on there. If there are any
issues with her treatment, feel free to contact me,” she said.
Cecilia didn’t want Paula to die so soon.
Paula hadn't yet seen her reclaim the Smith family’s assets, she couldn't just die so quickly.
Moreover for Paula, death seemed far easier than living.
“All right
The caregiver held onto the business card that Cecilia had given, secretly resolving to definitely change Paula’s
favoritism problem.
At that time, Cerilia had no idea that her actions would reveal a secret that Paula had been holding close to her «
heart all along
