Chapter 839_When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 839 Returning To The Smith Residence

 “I’m not angry. You don’t have to leave.” Nichs said slowly.

 Jessica was doubtful but dared not make any reckless moves.

 “Since you’re fond of Nathaniel, take good care of him. If the two of you end up together, we’d practically be family.

 Upon hearing these words, Jessica was filled with astonishment. “Really?”

 “Of course.” Nichs lowered his voice. “But remember, don’t harm Cecilia. If anything happens to her. I’ll make your life a living hell. Do you understand?”

 Though Jessica didn’t understand why Nichs would say such a thing, she still nodded vehemently. “I’ll remember that. I won’t harm Cecilia.

 “She, after all, gave birth to the great–grandsons of the Rainsworth family. I am quite magnanimous about it. Remember, whatever happens around them in the future, let me know immediately,” he instructed.

 “Understood.” Jessica readily agreed.

 Only then did Nichs depart.

 After he left. Jessica felt the suffocating tension within her case.

 She was breathing heavily. While Nichs hadn’t returned, she seized upon the opportunity to leave thepany.

 The moment she settled into the taxi, her phone buzzed with a new message. ncing at the screen, it read: Cecilia is currently staying at the Smith residence.

 This text message was sent by Miranda.

 After Cecilia moved out the day before, Jessica couldn’t find her. Her only option was to ask Miranda for help.

 After all, Mirands had always lived in Tud and therefore, she had a profound understanding of Tud and Cecilia too.

 Once she found out where Cecilia was living, Jessica could hardly wait to have her driver take her there. “Thinking of getting rid of me? It’s not that easy.”

 At the Smith residence, Cecilia began tidying up after she returned.

 She arrived at what used to be her father’s study.

 She opened the bottom drawer of the desk, rummaging through its contents based on her memory. It didn’t take long before she found the photograph her father had kept.

 The photograph depicted a family portrait of the four of them.

 Originally, during the family photo shoot, Pa didn’t allow Cecilia to join. This photograph was edited to

 In order to keep the photo within reach yet hidden from Pa’s discovery, Regas hid it at the very bottom of his drawer.

 Cecilia gently touched her father’s kindly face in the photo, feeling a burning sensation in her eyes.

 “Dad, are we truly not a family?”

 As the technology in the past was not as advanced, Cecilia’s face stuck out unnaturally in the picture. Cecilia truly wanted to ask Pa how she could bear to deceive Regas and herself all this while.

 From the hospital, the caregiver had called her the day before, but she didn’t answer.

 However, on that day, when she picked up her phone again, she saw a message from the caretaker: Ms. Smith, are you alright? Mdm. Pa’s condition is quite serious right now. Could you possiblye and see her?

 Upon seeing the message, Cecilia immediately deleted it

 Before receiving the DNA test results, she didn’t want toy eyes on Pa even for a moment.

 If what Pa said was true, then she was far too malicious in her actions.

 When Cecilia was alone in the study, the sound of the doorbell echoed from downstairs once again. Once she regained her senses, she stepped outside only to see Jessica standing there, waving at her.

 “Cecilia.”

 Whenever Cecilia saw her, she felt a headacheing on.Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.

 This woman is just like a stubborn leech, the kind you can’t shake off no matter how hard you tried.

 “Hey Cecilia, I’m here to take care of you. Can you open the door for me?” Jessica stood outside therge iron gate, surveying the surroundings.

 “Go back. I don’t need anyone to look after me,” said Cecilia.

 “Cecilia, didn’t ou make a promise to me back then? Are you thinking of going back on your word now?” Jessica’s eyes were brimming with tears. “If you make me go back now, it would be like sending me to my death. My grandfather and the others would certainly not let me off.”

 Cecilia was in a foul mood and had no desire to continue the tiresome exchange. “What has that got anything to do with me?” she retorted.
