Chapter 425 One ss To Knock Her Out
By the time they reached the Rainsworth residence, night had already fallen.
A housekeeper came to open the door. “Mr. Nathaniel, Ms. Smith, dinner is ready and waiting for
With a stoic expression, Nathaniel asked the housekeeper, “What did you call my wife?”
He could remember informing all the housekeepers to address Cecilia as Mrs. Rainsworth before he lost his memory.
Upon hearing this, the housekeeper lowered her head and immediately corrected herself, “Mrs. Rainsworth.”
It wasn’t that she had forgotten Nathaniel’s order; it was just that Nichs was in charge now. Besides that, she had grown ustomed to being at odds with Cecilia in the past.
Cecilia hadn’t expected Nathaniel to stand up for her. While surprised, her perception of him changed slightly for the better.
After they both got out of the car, they headed toward the dining room.
Nichs and Cassandra had arrived here quite early. Due to the events of the day, Cassandra was subtly upset.
Swiftly, her gazended on the couple, Cecilia in particr.
Previously, Cassandra had only conducted a simple investigation into Cecilia, so she didn’t know what thetter looked like..
The person standing before her bore a striking resemnce to herself, though Cecilia’s eyes were notably more captivating. They were like a clear spring, unforgettable at first nce.
Only after seeing Cecilia wearing hearing aids did a hint of Cassandra’s jealousy case.
She rose to her feet. “Nathaniel, Cecilia.”
Cecilia gave a slight nod, putting on a good show.
The moment she stepped in, she had also paid attention to Cassandra. Indeed, thetter was exactly like what she had seen in the videos, and the aura she exuded was strikingly simr to Pa’s.
At that moment, Nichs approached the two of them, calling out to Nathaniel, “Nathaniel.”
Nathaniel’s handsome face was impassive as he responded with a nonmittal hum.
After Cecilia helped Nathaniel to sit down, the atmosphere in the dining room became somewhat strange.
Elena was still in her room, calling Wren to ask him toe back.
Wren hardly ever returned here unless there was something of importance..N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights.
After ending the call, Elena made her way to the dining room.
Upon spotting the four individuals in the dining room, she pulled out a chair and sat down. “Let’s eat.
During the meal, since Nathaniel couldn’t see, a housekeeper came over to serve him food.
Seeing this, Elena felt a hint of displeasure in her heart. “Cecilia, I’m not trying to scold you, but Nathaniel is your husband. Since he can’t see, can’t you feed him first and only eat after he’s finished?”
Before Cecilia could even voice a rebuttal, Nathaniel had already spoken.
“Ceci is my wife, not a servant.”
Elena was instantly rendered speechless.
This bout of amnesia had unexpectedly changed her son’s nature.
Cassandra silently watched as Nathaniel defended Cecilia, feeling a surge of jealousy welling up within her.
She nced toward Nichs, who was sitting next to her, and ced a serving of vegetables on his te. “Here, Nichs, eat more.”
Nichs nced at the extra vegetables on his te, a trace of coolness shing in his eyes, yet he replied gently, “All right. Make sure you eat more too.”
As he was speaking, his gaze subtly shifted toward Cecilia, and then he subtly signaled to the housekeeper who was attending to them at the side.
The housekeeper swiftly came over to pour some red wine.
As the meal progressed, everyone was lost in their own thoughts.
Cecilia realized something was off that day. She wouldn’t say she was the best drinker, but it was unlikely that a single ss of red wine could knock her out. Yet, now her head was spinning.
She assumed it was due to the long car ride she had taken that day and didn’t give it much thought.
Nathaniel was drinking the same wine as her. Having always been a fixture in the business world, he was naturally ustomed to all kinds of strategies.
He stealthily poured away the wine..
After finishing their meal, Cecilia stood up, ready to leave with Nathaniel.
