After two and a half years she gave Cassie to Grace for two reasons. One was because she couldn't care for Cassie anymore and the other was because Grace told her Cassie would have a good life with her real mother. Millie claims it was her fault that Alice didn't know how to raise a child. Michael cross examines and Millie says she knew she would get stuck raising Cassie.
