hapter 277 Cassandra said, âSo, I should take responsibility? I didnât make her pregnant. Nor did I ask her to abandon her kids. Her tragedy was made by the person who poisoned her, not me.
âI didnât get poisoned inside her does not mean that their tragedies were caused by me. But I think you must know who caused my tragedy.
âI felt like Iâve already died once. If you want that to happen again, do whatever you like.â
Cassandra felt her whole body was cold. She knew what Theodore meant.
Leanna was poisoned when she was pregnant. She couldnât take any medicine: because she was pregnant. Although Harper and Cassandra were both inside. Leanna, only Harper was infected. Cassandra was healthy.
Therefore, when they left, they only took Harper with them and left Cassandra behind to wait for the Yates family to pick her up.
However, Thomas just had an operation. They cared too much about Thomas at that moment and didnât have time to care about Cassandra, who was just born two or three days ago.
It had been 18 years. Even Benjamin had found her. But they didnât do anything.
Leanna was the Queen of Zosteylor. It was a wealthy nation and had established full diplomatic relations with Clusia. So there were many consulates of Zosteylor in the big cities. It couldnât be very difficult for them to find someone in Clusia.
It was not a difficult task. They just didnât want to do it.
Kenneth was nervous. He protected Cassandra behind him. Although he didnât understand what she meant by âalready died onceâ, he would not allow anyone to get a chance to hurt Cassandra.
Kenneth said, âMr. Yates, I think you must have heard what Cassie said. You didnât go through what she had gone through. So you canât ask Cassie to forgive you. Her Majesty is in poor health. Youâd better quickly find a doctor for her. Let us leave.â
Theodore was a little regretful. He thought he shouldnât have said what he just said and blamed Cassandra for it.
Theodore hurriedly explained, âCassie, thatâs not what I meant. I... I didnât mean it.

âThe poison inside Mom hasnât been cured. It has been so many years. Even the poison inside Harper is not. It attacks them from time to time.â He didnât want to keep apologizing to change Cassandraâs mind. He thought it would be good to persuade Cassandra to visit his mother even if he couldnât find Dr. Quirke. Theodore added, âThe doctor said if the poison inside Mom was not cured in three months, she would be dead. So Dad sent someone to kidnap Hugo. He just wanted Dr. Quirke to save Mom.â
Hugoâs heart jolted. When he left the Queenâs Palace, he found that there was something wrong with the Queen. She didnât look healthy. Hugo thought it seemed that what Theodore said was true.
Cassandra was lost in thought. She murmured, âThree months.â
She looked at Hugo. Hugo said helplessly, âWhen I left the Queenâs Palace, I noticed the Queenâs breathing was ragged. She looks not bad but itâs only because of the makeup. She doesnât look like a healthy person.â
Theodore turned to Hugo in surprise. âYou have medical skills?â
Jeremiah couldnât help but say, âYou didnât investigate him before you kidnapped. him? Hugo is also an expert doctor and his teacher is Dr. Quirke.â
He thought, âA bunch of idiots! They already kidnapped a doctor but they didnât ask Hugo for help!.
âInstead, they locked him up.
âStupid!
âPeople say they are smart. I really canât find the slightest evidence.â
Theodore was speechless.
He didnât even know where his father found Hugo.
He was not involved in these things.
Cassandra took a deep breath and turned to Kenneth.
Kenneth gently rubbed her head and said softly, âWhatever you do, I will support ××× O 75%
Chapter 277 you.â
Jeremiah turned his head arrogantly away from Cassandra. âDonât look at me. Did I never object to anything that you want to do?â
Cassandra turned to Theodore and said, âI can go back with you and cure Ms. Leanna Stark only if you promise not to pester me anymore. We should be like strangers. Can you do that?â
Theodore was stunned. He looked at Cassandra and felt helpless. But he didnât get carried away because Cassandra was willing to go back with him. He said, âI canât make the decision.â
Cassandra said, âOkay, Iâll go back with you and talk to Darren.â
If they could reach an agreement, Cassandra would treat Leanna; if not, Cassandra wouldnât do it.
*****
Back at the Queenâs Palace, Darren was very excited when he saw Cassandra, thinking that Theodore must have persuaded her.
Unexpectedly, Cassandra retreated as soon as he walked a bit closer to her.
Darren was a little bit disappointed. But he soon swallowed it. He looked at her in surprise. âCassie, youâre back!â
âIâm not here to catch up with you.â Cassandra paused and said, âTheodore said. that it was all fault that Her Majesty is sick.
Although I donât want you to be my parents, she gave birth to me after all. I canât watch her die and do nothing. But I have my conditions.â
Darren didnât understand what she meant. He turned to Theodore.
Theodore explained everything to Darren, feeling helpless. Darrenâs mood darkened as he listened to Theodore.
Darren said, âI wonât accept it. I am your father and your mother is sick. Even if we have to die, we wonât disown you.â
He didnât agree. Neither would Leanna.

Chapter 277 Cassandra said, âWe never met in the past 18 years. Why do you still care about it so much? If you insist on it, Her Majesty will be dead. If you promise to leave me alone, I will stay until Her Majesty recovers.â She thought her offer was probably not tempting enough. âI will cure Harper too. It should be enough.â
Darren looked at Cassandra and thought, âWho is she? Why is she so certain?â
Hugo said, âMr. Yates, didnât you kidnap me for Dr. Quirke? Sheâs Dr. Quirke, the legendary man in his 30s. She just pretended to be a man.â
Kenneth said, âTo save Kayden, I found Dr. Quirke. At first, she disguised herself as a man in his thirties. But in the end, I found out that Dr. Quirke was just a little girl.
Hugo nodded. âMs. Yates is already negotiating with you, which means that she is confident that no matter what kind of poison the Queen has, as long as the Queen isnât dead yet, she can save the Queen. Even if there is no cure for the poison, at least she can make the Queen live longer.â
Darren asked doubtfully, âAre you really able to save Leanna?â
Cassandra replied, âYes.â
Cassandra decided that even if she had to try her best, she would save the Queen, as long as they didnât go back on their word and leave her alone.
Darren was in a dilemma. He had to choose between his wife who only had three months left to live and his daughter who he felt guilty for in the past 18 years. He didnât know what to do.
Suddenly, a doctor walked to him and said, âSir, we must Dr. Quirke as soon as possible. The Queenâs disease will soon become incurable.â
Darren clenched his fists and closed his eyes. He was torn. He said in a somewhat trembling voice, âOkay. Itâs a deal.â
He thought, âSorry, Leanna. I chose you in the end.
