    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cecilia and Nathaniel brought Elliot back to Rainsworth Manor. On the way, Elliot was holding the seemingly ordinary bead.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Daddy, Mommy, can this bead fetch a lot of money?”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cecilia nodded. “Yes, relics are very precious. You must take good care of it in the future.”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Besides, Niel had mentioned that it came from a high priest after his passing and wasn’t easy to acquire.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Okay,” Elliot agreed without hesitation.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">He soon fell asleep, leaning against Cecilia.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cecilia held him, not daring to let him out of her sight for even a second.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Back at Rainsworth Manor, Cecilia ced Elliot on the bed and covered him with a nket.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Only after making sure he was settled did she go wash up and get ready for bed.</font></font>N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Nathaniel finished washing up first andy on the bed.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">That night, as they slept together, Cecilia had a nightmare, dreaming that something terrible happened to Elliot. She woke up in a panic.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Eli…”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Nathaniel was a light sleeper. When he heard her call out, he held her close. “Did you have a nightmare?”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">It took Cecilia a moment toe to her senses in his arms.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Yeah, I dreamed something bad happened to Eli again.”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Nathaniel gently patted her back. “It’s okay, it was just a dream.”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Mm.” Cecilia nodded, though she couldn’t fall back asleep. “Why do you think Felix would push Elliot?”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Back when she saw the video, she was shocked. How could a child be so cruel?</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Kids are often influenced by their parents. My father and my uncle never got along, so from a young age, Adrian saw me as apetitor,” Nathaniel exined.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">To the past Nathaniel, however, Adrian was never a true rival.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">It was the first time Cecilia had heard Nathaniel talk about these things.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Though she’d been married into the Rainsworth family for years, she hadn’t seen much of Nathaniel’s uncle, having only heard that he primarily managed overseas businesses and only returned for the asional New Year celebration.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“We’ll have to keep a close eye on him from now on,” Cecilia said.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Of course.” Nathaniel tightened his embrace around her.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">The next morning, when Cecilia woke up, Nathaniel was no longer in the bedroom.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">After getting up, the temporary nanny who hade to care for Elliot told her, “Mr. Nathaniel went out with his cousins.”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cecilia nodded.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Elliot looked much better now. He had changed into a brand–new, custom–made little suit, which him a more serious appearance.</font></font>


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


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cecilia walked over. “Is this the outfit Grandma bought for you?”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Elliot nodded.</font></font>


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


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">He still preferred the cute clothes his mommy picked out for him, but the nanny had chosen this set for him to wear.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">The nanny approached, “Mrs. Rainsworth, Mr. Elliot, once you’re both ready, shall we go over for breakfast? Mdm. Elena has been waiting for you.”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">After what had happenedst night, Elena hadn’t had a chance to talk much with Elliot.</font></font>


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


    Cecilia took Elliot along to Elena’s ce.


    It was only a few minutes‘ walk. When they arrived at the dining room, they saw Cassandra and the cousins gathered there, but Elena was absent.


    Jessica was among them, chatting andughing. However, when she saw Cecilia enter, she immediately fell silent.


    The lively atmosphere instantly turned to dead silence.


    Seeing this, Cassandra spoke up, “As you hadn’te by yet, Mom was busy and had to leave. Come, sit down.”


    “Okay.”


    Cecilia pulled out a chair and told Elliot to sit first.


    After what had happened yesterday, the cousins didn’t dare speak ill of Elliot anymore. They knew he was Elena’s beloved grandson.
