    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Jessica was taken aback.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">When her approach failed, she simply knelt down by the door. “Cecilia, if you won’t let me in, then I’ll jus stay right here.”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Suit yourself.”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cecilia turned around and returned inside, where she then washed some fruit for herself. As she sliced the fruit, she ate it while lounging on the couch, browsing for new shows to watch.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Popr TV dramas allowed her to temporarily cast aside her troubles.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">There wasn’t anything interesting on TV. After flipping through a few channels, Cecilia stumbled upon thetest news.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">The news reported that Evans Group experienced a significant drop in its stock price the week before. This week, it was revealed that the chairman, Ralph, had already sold all his shares. Now, Evans Group has been acquired by a newpany, Imminence Corporation.</font></font>Text ? by N0ve/lDrama.Org.


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Imminence Corporation?</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cecilia found herself mulling over the name, feeling as though she had heard it somewhere before. However, she was unable to recall where exactly she did.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">While she was still deep in thought, the ringing of the phone interrupted her thoughts.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cecilia casually took the call, it was from Magnus.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Sis, have you seen the news? Ralph’spany has copsed.” Magnus seemed quite agitated.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">After all, Ralph refused to help him rebuild Smith Corporation and even went so far as to constantly mock and humiliate him.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“I saw in</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Upon hearing Magnus address her as ‘sis, Cecilia felt her emotions were in a tangled mess.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">If what Pa had said was true, then he was not her brother at all.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Ralph had the audacity to say I couldn’t run apany, yet hispany got takeover by someone else. Howughable,” Magnus remarked. Then, he asked Cecilia, “Nathaniel, has the Evans familypensated you yet?”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Hepensated several hundred million.”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“That little? When 1 became part of the Evans family, I brought them at least five to six billion, not to mention your dowry… Magnus rambled on.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Upon hearing this, Cecilia couldn’t help but feel frustrated. “What’s the point of saying all this now? This is still all because of your foolishness.”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Who in their right mind would transfer their assets to aplète stranded</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“I just did what Mom told me to. She used to say that Ralph was a good person and even imed that I would inherit his wealth after his death. Who knew they would be so selfish, only caring about Cassandra?”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Magnus was furious as he continued, “A few days ago, Mom called me, iming she’s really got cancer. She deserved it. Of all people, she really had iting.”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cecilia didn’t want to discuss these matters with him.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Do you have anything else to discuss?”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Huh? Nothing really. I just saw the news and thought of sharing it with you. Oh, by the way. I’ve been working with Nichs recently. I’m earning my own money now,” Magnus said gleefully.</font></font>


    Cecilia hadn’t expected him to change so rapidly.


    “You’re able to rely on yourself now. That’s great.”


    “Cecilia. Nichs is truly a good man. If, and I mean if, Nathaniel ever treats you poorly, you must tell me. Nichs and I will stand up for you.” Magnus said.


    Cecilia hummed in acknowledgment. Noticing that he had nothing else to say, she ended the call.


    Magnus gazed at the disconnected call, a glimmer of coldness crossing his eyes.


    “What a fool. I’ve made it so clear. Nichs is far better than the blind Nathaniel. Can’t you see who to choose?” Magnus gripped his phone tightly. “If I were a woman, I wouldn’t have to curry favor with you.” He hadn’t changed at all and was merely trying to win over Nichs by getting into Cecilia’s good books.


    If Cecilia were to be with Nichs, he would be set for a bright future.


    Meanwhile, Cecilia set her phone aside, copsing onto the couch in exhaustion for a brief rest.


    She didn’t know how much time had passed before a phone call jolted her awake again.


    Jpon picking up her phone, Cecilia saw that it was a call from Eric,


    Cecilia, your raw song has already advanced to the second round of thepetition. Congrattions.” After returning, Eric stayed at home all the time in order not to be discovered by his boss, keeping a close. ye on Cecilia’s new song every day.
