Chapter 1555 Is This Some Kind Of Joke
Cecilia stared at her phone screen, hesitating whether to call Queenie.
Upon getting up and returning to the living room, Cecilia ultimately decided to dial Queenie’s number.
Queenie was in the middle of a meeting when she suddenly noticed a call from Cecilia. The excitement in her eyes was palpable. “Ceci!” She rose to her feet. “That will be all for today’s meeting.
Everyone exchanged glances, somewhat taken aback. Over the years, they had never seen Queenie cancel a meeting over someone’s phone call.
Queenie held her phone tightly and quickly stepped outside, for fear of missing her call.
Once she was outside, she immediately answered.
“Ceci, it’s so nice to hear from you. Is there something you need, sweetheart?”
Queenie’s kind and gentle voice came through from the other end of the phone.
The word “sweetheart” inexplicably tugged at Cecilia’s heartstrings.
In her life, what she probably longed for the most was a sense of familial love.
Things that others took for granted were considered precious to her. She wondered if she could truly experience familial love and a mother’s affection.
After a long pause, Cecilia finally revealed the reason for her call. “I just wanted to ask how much money you gave to Magnus.”
Queenie was stunned.
“Is it not enough? I can have finance transfer another two billion.”
Two billion was beyond what Cecilia could have ever dared to dream of in the past.
She was taken to live in the city when she was young. Despite her family’s wealth, Paula could hardly bear to buy her a single piece of clothing.
It was only because they had guests over, and Paula was embarrassed by her attire, which resembled that of a beggar, that she finally decided to buy her new clothes to avoid losing face.
And yet, her own mother could produce such a large sum of money right off the bat.
“That’s not what I meant,” Cecilia clarified. “I didn’t get Magnus to ask for money. He acted on his own accord. I wanted to know how much you gave him. Once I have the money, I’ll repay you.”
She wasn’t sure if her words would make Queenie think she was being insincere.
After all, Magnus had already asked for money, and now she was claiming she didn’t want it.
Upon hearing Cecilia’s words, Queenie realized that Caliste was indeed right. She had truly been deceived.
However, she didn’t mind at all. “No worries, it’s just a bit of money. He’s your brother, which makes him

Queenie was incredibly happy at the moment. The fact that her daughter had taken the initiative to reach out to her was worth far more than two billion. Nothing could compare to this.
“No, I must pay you back. How much did he take from you? Two billion?” Cecilia asked.
Just earlier, she mentioned that she could give another two billion.
“It’s not much. You don’t have to pay me back.” Queenie seemed to have thought of something. “If you really feel bad about it, could you perhaps join me for a meal, or visit home for a bit?”
aybe
Queenie’s heart pounded with anxiety. She was petrified that Cecilia might refuse and also worried that Cecilia might overthink the situation.
Cecilia felt as if she was in debt to Queenie.
