When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 1815 I Am Sorry

Yuliana was momentarily taken aback.

Bethany spoke firmly. “This is a serious matter. I don't know whether to believe you or not. You'll have to figure it out on your own."

Unsteadily, Yuliana rose to her feet. "Grandma, I'm going to apologize to Aunt Queenie right away," she said, determined to make amends.

Without another word, she turned and headed toward Queenie's room. As she walked, her mind raced with countless thoughts. Cassandra's lies loomed largest, followed by Cecilia. Surprisingly, Cecilia had kept quiet, not mentioning anything to the family.

If it had been me, I might have already ruined Cecilia's reputation and life.

She wiped her tears and knocked on Queenie's door.

After an indeterminate amount of time, the door finally opened again. Yuliana and Queenie stepped out together.

"Aunt Queenie, let's go to the hospital," Yuliana murmured.

Queenie shook her head. "No need. I didn't like the food you brought earlier, so I barely ate. It didn't affect me."

Didn't like them?

Yuliana's guilt deepened. It also served as a wake-up call.

If Cassandra truly cared about Aunt Queenie, how could she not even know what she liked to eat or what she didn't?

Thankfully, Queenie hadn't liked the food.

"That's a relief... that's a relief..." Yuliana kept repeating, unable to stop herself.

"All right, no more tears. You were deceived too, and I don't blame you," Queenie said gently. "The fact that you came to me and told me the truth means a lot."

She understood Yuliana well. The girl wasn't a bad person-just too naive and stubborn. Since childhood, Yuliana and Cassandra had been inseparable. In fact, Yuliana had always been like Cassandra's shadow, following along without question.

So, when Cassandra landed in trouble, Yuliana had stepped up to help, believing she was doing the right thing.

"But Yuliana, you should apologize to Ceci," Queenie added.

Over the past few days, Queenie had noticed the tension between Yuliana and Cecilia. Yet, despite their issues, Cecilia hadn't gone straight to the police nstead, she had sought the truth first-a testament to her patience and sense of justice.

Yuliana nodded seriously. "I understand, Aunt Queenie. Frome now on, I'll listen to Cecilia's advice. She saved me this time. If it weren't for her, I would have been an accomplice to murder."

The thought of harming her own family chilled her. If Cassandra had succeeded,

Yuliana knew she would never find peace again.

After a long conversation with Queenie, she went to find Cecilia. Cecilia was sitting on the balcony, staring into the pitch-black night. Her eyes were filled with sorrow.

That morning, she had convinced

Zachary to accompany her to the

doctor to ask about Queenie's condition. Neither of them had expected the devastating truth her condition was far worse than they thought. sŵnovel

Queenie didn't have much time left.

As for the food Yuliana had brought, it had contained only a small amount of the harmful substance. Since Queenie hadn't eaten much, the damage had been minimal.noveldrama

Cecilia clutched a hot cup of coffee, her mind in turmoil. She had fought so hard to find her family. Was she about to lose them again?

A sudden knock interrupted her thoughts.

Snapping back to reality, Cecilia stood up and opened the door. Yuliana stood there, looking uneasy. She hesitated for a moment, then quickly stepped inside and shut the door behind her.

"What do you want?" Cecilia questioned.

For a split second, Cecilia thought she had misjudged Yuliana. Did she come to silence me after being exposed?

But before she could react further, Yuliana dropped to her knees. "Cecilia, I'm sorry."

Cecilia's eyes narrowed slightly.

Yuliana continued, “I confessed everything to my aunt and grandma. They told me you never said a word to them. Thank you."
