    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Chapter 867 That Is Your Problem</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Nathaniel paused. “Is there anything else?”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Why did you rescue me today, knowing how dangerous it was?” Cecilia asked, her gaze fixed on him.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">If he had truly lost his memories of the recent years, his recollections would be stuck around the time when they had just gotten married. At this point, he should detest her. Why would he risk himself to save me?</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Nathaniel fell silent for a moment as he wasn’t sure why either.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">It was simply an instinct to prevent Cecilia from getting hurt.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Since you’re carrying my child, I couldn’t just stand by if something happened to you,” Nathaniel responded indifferently.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cecilia let go of his arm she had been holding. “I see. All right then, you should head home. It’s gettingte, better get some rest soon.”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Nathaniel nodded, then walked out.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Mason quickly made his way to his side, ushering him into the car.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cecilia and Lucille had also returned to the house.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">It wasn’t long before the gynecologists Nathaniel had arranged for Cecilia arrived. After conducting a medical examination, they confirmed that the child was in excellent health and that Cecilia had not sustained any physical harm.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">After hearing the doctors‘ reassurances and waiting for them to leave, Jessica approached Cecilia and offered a tearful apology.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Cecilia, I didn’t mean for this to happen. Please forgive me. Don’t ask Nathaniel to send me home, okay?</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Please.” Tears streamed uncontrobly down Jessica’s cheeks.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“My parents passed away when I was youn</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">and</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">to survive in the Quill family, I had to constantly seek the favor of the elders. They now expect me to maintain ties with the Rainsworth family. If Nathaniel recounted her hardships, and her narrative dismisses me, the Quill family will make my life difficult.” She held a measure of truth. “Moreover, I’m sure my cousins from the Quill family would take advantage of the situation and make things even harder for me”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Jessica’s pitiful state did not elicit any sympathy from Cecilia.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Initially, Cecilia had considered keeping Jessica around hoping taste of her own medicine.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">over time, she would experience a</font></font>

    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cecilia realized that allowing</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“That’s your problem,” Cecilia remarked, “and there’s nothing much I can do anyway.”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Lucille, standing to the side, interjected, “You’re trying to guilt–trip Cecilia, aren’t you? Why should she keep someone as dangerous as you around?”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">She was trying to pressure Cecilia into keeping her around. “Cecilia, if you don’t keep me by your side, I’ll have no choice but to die in front of you.”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cecilia ignored her, instead suggesting to Lucille, “Let’s go watch a TV series.”</font></font>Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.


    “All right. Let’s go.” The two of them headed to the living room, settled on the couch, and turned on the television, effectively ignoring Jessica.


    Jessica caught up with them right away, persistently bowing her head in respect.
