NovelEnglishChapter 428 Who Is Your Real Daughter
Cassandra's eyes were filled with arrogance as she added, “After all, my stepmother is your biological mother.”
Upon hearing this, Cecilia responded immediately. “If you aspire to be Nicholas’ wife, it’s only natural that you
should addressas your sister-in-law.”
In an instant, Cassandra was rendered speechless.
For reasons she couldn't quite pinpoint, ever since she saw Nicholas sending Cecilia off the previous night, her
womanly instincts had developed a strong dislike for Cecilia.
“Since | haven't married into the Rainsworth family yet, | think I'll treat you like my younger sister for now.”
After finishing her sentence, Cassandra stepped forward. “So, dear sister, | hate to impose, but | need you to
accompanytoday to buy the necessary items for the engagement.”
If it wasn’t for Nicholas, Cecilia would not have bothered with her at all.
“All right, giveten minutes.”

With that, Cecilia left Cassandra alone in the living room, heading off to freshen up and ready.

Cassandra casually looked around, taking in her surroundings. As expected of the Rainsworth. family, the most
prominent family in Tudela, their prestige was reflected in the understated elegance of Nathaniel’s residence.
Despite its subtle appearance, it radiated luxury from every corner.
Comparatively, the place where Nicholas lived was much more modest.
Cassandra felt a pang of resentment. Why should Nathaniel, who was blind, still have the privilege of living in
such a luxurious place?
After getting ready, Cecilia informed Nathaniel of her plan before leaving with Cassandra.
When they arrived at the entrance of the old mansion, they saw an extended Lincoln parked there.
The car door swung open. As Cecilia was about to get in, she noticed a familiar figure already seated inside.
Cassandra broke the silence first. “Mom, you're here.”
After speaking, she turned back to look at Cecilia. “Hey sis, why aren’t you greeting Mom?”
Despite addressing Cecilia as “sister,” Cassandra's eyes were filled with mockery.
Paula said in a cold tone, “Who is she to be considered your sister, Cassandra? Hurry and get int the car; it's
chilly outside.”
Cassandra nodded, then turned back to give Cecilia a smug look.
“Get in the car. We still have things to pick out.”
Cecilia watched the harmonious exchange between the two before she climbed into the car.
On the road, the atmosphere within the car was rather intriguing.
Paula held Cassandra’s hand, her gaze falling on the pigeon egg-sized ring on her middle finger. She couldn't
help but praise, “Did Nicholas buy this for you? It's really beautiful.”
“Yes, Nicholas had it custom-made for me. He insisted that if we were to have an engagement party, it had to be
the best,” Cassandra said with smug satisfaction.
After she finished speaking, she turned to Cecilia and asked, “Cecilia, what kind of ring did Nathaniel buy for you
when you got engaged?”
When Cecilia initially got engaged to Nathaniel, it was his secretary who bought the engagement ring, which was
subsequently given to her.
Back then, she was still incredibly naive, so she had been elated for quite a while.

Looking back, | was really a fool back then.
“It’s just an ordinary diamond ring,” replied Cecilia.
From the side, Paula mocked, “Back then, Nathaniel didn’t even like her, so how could he have. put in any effort
for her? It's only because he can’t see now that he’s started treating her a bit. better.
Throughout the journey, Paula and Cassandra wouldn't stop with their incessant sarcastic remarks about
Nathaniel’s current blindness.
They appeared to have forgotten how, when Nathaniel was still in good health, they used to curry favor with him.
After finally completing their shopping, Paula pulled Cecilia aside right before she was about to leave.
“Look, Ceci, | don’t mean to be harsh, but Nathaniel is blind now and practically useless. The only people you can
rely on are your siblings. Magnus and Cassandra are both better than you.”
“Mdm. Paula, get to the point,” Cecilia interrupted her incessant chatter,
Seeing that, Paula didn’t plan on pretending anymore. “While in the Rainsworth residence, you should be more
considerate of Cassandra. Even though she married the younger brother, that doesn’t change how she’s now in
charge of the household. In private, you should call her your older sister.”
After hearing it all, Cecilia directly voiced her question, “Between Cassandra and me, just who is your real «
daughter?”
