Chapter 513 Painful Sight


    Before Cecilia walked in, Nichs‘ gaze never left her.


    He pulled back his chair and rose, greeting, “Nathaniel, Cecilia.”


    Cecilia gave him a polite smile.


    That scene was a painful sight for Cassandra. She suppressed her rage and followed Nichs. “Cecilia, Nathaniel.”


    Nathaniel didn’t respond, only moving to sit next to Cecilia once she had settled down.


    Given that there were others around, Cecilia didn’t want to embarrass Cassandra, so she responded back.


    When Cassandra sat down again, she deliberately looped her arm through Nichs. “Nichs, Nathaniel’s and Cecilia’s son is so adorable.”


    Nichs‘ arm stiffened as disdain shed past his eyes.


    He quietly pulled Cassandra’s hand away, his gaze resting on Elliot. He does resemble Nathaniel.


    Elena had been staring at Elliot intently ever since he entered.


    Even though Cecilia insisted that Elliot was not Nathaniel’s son, she still didn’t believe it. If the children’s father is indeed Calvin, then why is one with Vivian while the other with her? Moreover, Jon’s surname is Smith. It doesn’t make sense.


    “Eli,e, sit next to Grandma,” Elena said, her tone unusually tender.


    Upon hearing that, Elliot said, “Who are you? My grandma has been dead for a long time.”


    Everyone present was momentarily stunned.


    The amiable face of Elena instantly froze.


    Her gaze was as cold as ice as she looked at him. “You taught him to say that? To wish for my death?”


    Feeling unfairly med for that, Cecilia was about to exin that Elliot was referring to Martha.


    However, Elliot quickly shielded Cecilia with his own body. “Don’t talk to my mommy like that, olddy. My grandma is already dead. You’re not her, so why are you saying my mommy taught. me to curse you?”


    Elena was taken aback as she had never been called that before. “What… What did you call me?”


    “Olddy. What else should I call you? Don’t think that just because you’re older, you can bully my mommy.” Elliot was never the charming and considerate boy his brother Jonathan was known to be.


    He was quite naughty and would not give Elena any sort of respect.


    Elena was not even fifty yet, and thanks to her excellent self–care, she appeared to be just over forty.


    “Cecilia, how are you raising this child?” Elena simply couldn’t bring herself to scold Elliot, who could possibly be her great–grandson.


    Thus, she had no choice but to vent her frustration on Cecilia.


    Elliot was about to argue with her again, but a nce from Cecilia stopped him.


    “Mom, the grandma Eli is referring to is Ceci’s nanny, not you.” Nathaniel interjected impatiently from the side.


    Elena choked up, suddenly at a loss for words.


    At that moment, Niel hobbled over with his cane and took his seat at the head of the table. “Is everyone here? Let’s get the food served.”


    After he finished speaking, he gestured toward Elliot. “Eli,e sit by my side.”


    Before Elliot could even make a move, Felix was instantly upset. It’s one thing Grandma Elena wants that brat to sit by her side, but now great–grandpa wants him, too?Content from N?velDr(a)ma.Org.


    He couldn’t ept it, so he said, “Great–grandpa. I want to sit next to you.”


    In the past, Felix always used to sit next to Niel.


    Right as Felix finished speaking, Elliot had already taken the only seat next to Niel.


    After that, he deliberately said to Felix, “Why didn’t you mention it earlier? I’m already sitting here.”


    Originally, he didn’t want to sit next to an unfamiliar old man. However, when he heard Felix express his desire to sit there, he found himself wanting topete for the spot.


    Felix had been pampered since childhood, always being the first one served during meal times.


    As such, he knew no humility and immediately lost his temper. “Get lost, you unwanted child. That’s my spot!”
