Chapter 1648 Being Watched All Along
“I'm fine,” responded Cecilia.

“That's good, that's good.” Queenie was speaking to Cecilia over the phone while gazing out the window. “I'm not seriously ill. The doctor said it was just hypoglycemia that caused me to faint.”

Cecilia didn't understand why Queenie was telling her all that.

“As long as you're okay,” she responded calmly.

Queenie continued, “I'll come over again tomorrow to see you guys and bring you some food.”

“No need,” Cecilia declined without giving it much thought.

She certainly didn't want any issues to arise again because of Queenie cooking for her or bringing her meals.

She didn't want to be misunderstood by Cassandra and risk getting slapped again for no reason.

Queenie was rejected, which saddened her. She was unable to utter a single word for a long time.

“If there's nothing else, I'll hang up now,” said Cecilia.

“Wait, does that mean I can come to see you whenever?” Queenie asked nervously.

“Perhaps it's best not to.” Cecilia ended the call.

Queenie stared blankly at her phone, a bit dazed. “I thought she had changed her opinion of me.”

Caliste stood by, recounting the day's events of Cassandra's clash with Cecilia to her.

“What?” Queenie couldn't believe it. “Why didn't you stop her?”

“Before I had the chance, Ms. Evans took action,” the secretary said, filled with regret.

Queenie no longer wished to stay in the hospital. She got up, left the premises, and returned to the Jamieson residence.

At that moment, Cassandra was amidst a lively conversation with a group of young ladies, all smiles and laughter. Queenie, with a cold expression, called her out.
