When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 1400

Chapter 1400 Her Biological Mother
She instructed the driver to turn around and head toward the psychiatric hospital where Cassina was admitted.

Upon their arrival, Cecilia noticed that the security was noticeably stricter than before. However, with a bit of cunning, Nathaniel still managed to get them in.

When Cecilia pushed open the door to Cassina's room, she saw the latter covered in injuries, staring blankly into the distance.

At the sound of the door opening, Cassina instantly recoiled into a corner and protected her head.

“Please, I beg of you, don't hit me,” she pleaded through her tears. “I promise, I won't speak out of turn again. Please don't hit me.”

Her appearance clearly indicated that she had endured a great deal of torment.

Cecilia slowly made her way over to her. “Cassina, it's me, Cecilia.”

Upon hearing Cecilia's voice, a glimmer of hope flickered in Cassina's eyes as she lifted her head to gaze at her.

“Ms. Smith, have you come to rescue me? By now you should realize that I wasn't lying. Please save me... no, please save my son, Dylan - he's innocent.”

An involuntary wave of sympathy washed over Cecilia upon seeing her in such a state.

“I've already sent someone to look for Dylan while on my way here.”

The immense weight that had been pressing on Cassina finally lifted.

“I still have some details I'd like to ask you about.”

“All right, ask away. I'll tell you everything I know.”

Cecilia had Cassina recount the incident of Queenie losing her daughter and the subsequent visit to the orphanage with Bailey.

It was exactly as she had said before. She wasn't lying.

Cecilia slightly lowered her gaze. “So it really is the truth. It really is...”

Seeing her murmuring to herself, Nathaniel approached her and asked, “Ceci, what exactly happened?”

With her eyes reddened, Cecilia threw her arms around him in an embrace.

“Nathaniel, I've found my biological mother. She's Queenie.”

Nathaniel's heart sank. He, too, found it hard to believe.

“Are you sure?”

“Yes. I've already done the DNA test.” Cecilia nodded.
