When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him Novel

Chapter 1340 The Trap

Upon hearing this, Cecilia quickly checked.

She had initially assumed that the contract had been altered to favor the Jamieson family. However, to her surprise, the contract essentially allowed them to collaborate for free.

"Did she make a mistake?"

Just as Cecilia was about to call Cassina to inquire, a piece of paper fell out of the contract.

Cecilia then saw what Cassina had written: Ms. Smith, both my mother and I are ingrates. Thank you for treating us so kindly. I truly have nothing to repay you with. You must accept this contract. It's a token of my sincere gratitude.

"I really didn't see that coming," Charlotte exclaimed in disbelief. "This contract must be worth over a billion, and she handed it over to us for free?"

When Cecilia tried to call Cassina, she found that the line was engaged.

She instructed Charlotte, "Lottie, hold off on this contract for now." "Alright."

Charlotte understood and nodded in agreement.

Meanwhile, Cassina sent the contract over to Cassandra for review.

Outraged, Cassandra questioned, "Are you out of your mind? Why are you using the Jamieson family's money to subsidize Cecilia?"

"I didn't want to feel too guilty toward her. After all, I took her place, and she is such a wonderful person-" said Cassina.

Before Cassina could finish her sentence, Cassandra instantly became wary and cut her off, "What nonsense are you talking about? I don't want to hear such things ever again."

"But that's the truth!" Cassina deliberately provoked her.

"Where are you right now? I'll come find you." Cassandra was worried that the foolish Cassina might accidentally expose her.

Cassina had been waiting for her to say that and promptly sent her an address.

"I think we should be a bit nicer to Cecilia..." Cassina continued.

Cassandra quickly said, "Wait for me. I'll be right there."

She was completely unguarded. Once she stepped outside, she simply instructed the driver to head toward the given location. "Step on it."

Upon her arrival, Cassandra realized how desolated the place was and there were no other vehicles in sight.

From a distance, she saw Cassina standing alone.

Without giving it much thought, Cassandra immediately stepped out of the car. "What are you doing here?" Upon seeing Cassandra finally approaching, Cassina clenched her fists subconsciously.

"Ms. Evans, you're finally here."

Somewhat irritated, Cassandra replied, "Yes, what about it?"

She gradually moved closer, when suddenly, about seven or eight burly men appeared all around her.

The driver who brought Cassandra was quickly restrained, and only then did Cassandra realize she had been set up. "Cassina, what are you planning to do?"

A chill glint flashed in Cassina's

eyes. "Didn't you tell me that anyone who knows the secret must

My

mother is already gone, so die

how can I still let you live?"

Cassandra had never imagined that Cassina would have such audacity.

Her voice trembled as she asked, "You wouldn't dare!"

"Why wouldn't I?" Cassina glared at her fiercely. "Don't assume that only wealthy heiresses like you know how to harm others. I have the means and the power to do so just the same!"

Cassandra was about to make a call when Cassina stepped forward, snatching the latter's phone in one swift move.

"No one can save you now."

Upon hearing these words, Cassandra was utterly terrified. "Cassie, I'm sorry," she pleaded. "Please, let me go. I won't dare to do it again."

Cassina watched as Cassandra,

who was just acting high and mighty

a moment ago, transformed into the current pitiful state. It was a sight that brought her great satisfaction.

"Now, you're sorry? It's too late!"

Cassina furiously hurled Cassandra's phone away.

Then, several burly men gradually cornered the latter.

This sight instantly reminded Cassandra of the past, causing her to retreat step by step. "Don't come any closer!"
