Chapter 140
What Cassandra said made Leonardo speechless.
He was so surprised to see how Cassandra excited Miranda. After all, he talked to her many times since she woke up but she just wouldn’t say anything.
Leonardo was also curious how Cassandra got the 7 billion dollars and the shares, but he couldn’t get a chance to ask her.
Miranda kept yelling hysterically, “Give me back my money, Cassandra! Free Lisa! How dare you steal my money, bitch? You’re going to hell!”
She said the worst things to Cassandra and she even cursed her to death.
Leonardo frowned while listening to them. He seemed disgusted by Miranda’s reaction.
After all, she was Cassandra’s mother yet she was cursing her.
Ironically, Leonardo might forget that he once wanted Cassandra dead too, so what Miranda said was not that unacceptable.
“Blame yourself, Mrs. Yates. Do you think that the Yates family is as rich as it used to be and that you have as much money as you want?” Cassandra chucked as if she had thought about something funny. “Honestly, I’m quite curious why you didn’t take the opportunity to save Raymond at the auction. The pill that can cure him was only 1.76 billion dollars, and you could have hired Dr. Quirke to treat him for merely 2 billion dollars, but you didn’t. Why?
“And you spent 7 billion dollars to save Yulissa. Plus the shares, that’s over 8 billion dollars. You spent all the Yates family’s money without hesitation, but you know what? Yulissa can’t get out of prison
She was out just for three days before she was
arrested again. The price of saving her is quite high, isn’t it, Mrs. Yates?”
Cassandra knew what Miranda’s weakness was and every word she said drove her crazy. “Shut up! You set me up. It’s all your fault! Just give me back my money and free Lisa!” Miranda was still unaware of her mistake and blamed Cassandra for everything.
Suddenly, Cassandra stopped smiling and said coldly with a meaningful look, “Sometimes I wonder who’s your biological daughter. Me or Yulissa? Maybe we should do a DNA test
After saying that, she turned around and glanced at the three brothers. Just as she was

about to leave, she saw someone enter the room in a daze.
It was Raymond. He looked so disappointed and had tears in his eyes.
Cassandra sneered and thought, ‘What now? Raymond must have heard everything.
Just look at his face. He didn’t seem to think his parents would do something like this.
“Wow, Raymond and Yohannes are here,” she said.
Raymond was followed by Yohannes, who seemed to care a lot about how he felt. However, Raymond seemed to be emotionally damaged and he almost lost his balance. Cassandra thought, ‘Did what I said shocked him? That’s not the proud young man I used to know!”
Miranda paused and thought, ‘What? Ray is here.
‘Did he hear it?”
“I’ll leave you alone.” Cassandra glanced at Raymond with a meaningful look. There was hate and contempt in her eyes, but no sympathy.
Cassandra’s visit was another blow to the Yates family.
After she left, Raymond looked at Miranda and said in disbelief, “Is what Cassandra said true, Mom? Did you save Yulissa with all our money?”
He realized that they just didn’t want to save him when he was in danger. Now he knew what they were thinking. They never spent a single dollar on him while they spent all their money on Yulissa without hesitation.
Cassandra asked Miranda the same question he wanted to ask.
Miranda was a little panicked. She held Raymond’s hand and tried her best to explain, “Listen to me, Ray. Your father wouldn’t give me the money so I couldn’t save you. I could do nothing about it at that time. I’m so sorry, but please don’t…”
Finding it ridiculous, Raymond shook off Miranda’s hand and said, “Then how did you save Yulissa? I know Dad well and he would never save her with all our money.”
He knew it. He was not as important to them as Yulissa was to them. After all, they had six sons so it was okay to lose him.
That was how his parents treated him.

Miranda was flustered and didn’t dare to look Raymond in the eye. “I didn’t mean it, Ray. Your father wouldn’t give me the money. I had no choice…”
“Then tell me how you saved Yulissa!” He had already known the truth, but he just wanted to hear it from his mother. He had been disappointed once so it wouldn’t hurt
him anymore.
His loud voice frightened Miranda, who trembled and stammered, “Y–Your father asked me to keep the money.” She took Raymond’s hand again. “I was going to save you after I got Lisa out of prison, Ray. I just…”
She just didn’t expect that she would bankrupt their family. She even mortgaged the Yates residence to raise money.
The Yates family was done.
Raymond shook his head with a bitter smile, closed his eyes, and cried.
He thought, “This is what it feels like to be ignored, right? Why didn’t I die in the race?
‘Is this how Cassandra gets back at me?
‘She could have killed me, but she didn’t. Did she do this to show me how selfish and uncaring my family is?”
The most painful thing for him was going through what Cassandra went through. He regretted it. He thought that maybe death was a better end for him.
“I wish that I had never been born at all, Mom.”
He could accept that his mother, who wouldn’t spend a single dollar on him even though she had tens of billions of dollars, spent everything to save a girl who wasn’t even related to her.
Yohannes was surprised by what he heard. He was curious about what happened exactly.
He wondered how so many things had changed at home during his time abroad.
Leonardo comforted Raymond in a low voice, “It’s not as simple as you think, Ray. Don’t be so impulsive.”
Hearing this, Raymond snorted and said, “You saw it, Leo. You know the difference between the way they treat me and the way they treat Yulissa. Do I have to explain it to

you? Stop calling me your brother from now on.”
He was there to visit Miranda, but he didn’t expect to hear all of this. He had to admit. that Cassandra got him.
Now he just wanted to let it out. He wanted to go boxing and racing.
Miranda, who was crying her heart out, tried to go after Raymond, but Jasper stopped her and asked Leonardo and Frederick to do that.
Yohannes didn’t say a word all the time. He just followed Raymond there and then left with him.
The ward was in chaos.
They asked for it. They didn’t need Faye. They had been refusing to face the truth, and it was unknown how Benjamin would react when he found out about this.
