Fate Is On Her Side Hearing Yuliana’s offer, Cassandra didn’t hesitate. “My mother has put all her trust in Cecilia now, and I can’t avoid being locked up. But… I can’t bear to be separated from my sick daughter.”

Yuliana hesitated. “Hm…” She lowered her head. “How about this-I’ll take care of her for you.”

“It’s not just about taking care of her,” Cassandra said, tears rolling down her face. “The doctor says she doesn’t have much time left. I just want to be with her for whatever time she has left.”

Yuliana’s heart ached for her. She thought about how cruel Cecilia had been- forcing a mother and daughter apart. Clenching her fists, she declared, “All right. I’ll talk to Aunt Queenie and hire a team of lawyers. We’ll figure out a way for you to spend more time with your child.”

Of course, Cassandra wanted more than just that. “Yuliana, let’s not bother,” she sighed. “I doubt my mother will agree.”

“Aunt Queenie might seem cold, but she’s kind at heart. You’ve been her daughter for years-she’ll forgive you,” Yuliana insisted.

Cassandra reached for her hand. “Yuliana, I know my mother isn’t in the best health. Could you help take care of her?”
