Chapter 928_When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 928 Follow Your Orders

 Mason was just about to report this matter to Nathaniel. “Boss, Francis is kneeling at the gate of Daltonia Vi. He ims to have had no knowledge of what Ethan did. He also says that as long as you show him mercy, he will obey your orders from now on.”

 Nathaniel knew things couldn’t be that simple, but they hadn’t uncovered anything else.

 “Since Ethan isn’t willing to say more, there’s no need to press further.”

 “Understood.”

 Mason grasped Nathaniel’s meaning.

 There was no reason to keep Ethan around.

 “What about Francis then?”

 Nathaniel wasn’t ready to be ruthless yet. Besides, he knew Francis was a timid man, only interested in women.

 “Let him stay.”

 “Yes.”

 At Daltonia Vi, Cecilia was resting on the couch, when Jessica mentioned that the third son of the Murdock family had been kneeling outside, begging for forgiveness.

 Jessica asked Cecilia, “Has Ste been caught yet?”

 She vividly remembered how Ste had stomped on her injured leg with those high heels.

 Cecilia opened her eyes. “Probably not. I’m not the police. How would I know?”

 Her dismissive response made Jessica quite displeased.

 “What do you mean, ‘probably not“?”

 Jessica deliberately stirred things up. “Cecilia, Ste is your love rival! Have you forgotten how arrogant she was when we were both kidnapped?”

 Cecilia nced at her. “I haven’t forgotten, but what can we do about it?”

 Jessica was momentarily stunned.

 “You should have Nathaniel find someone to capture Ste and teach her a lesson!”

 Cecilia deliberately declined. “No, I think the main culprit in this plot to harm us was the Murdock family. As you said, Ste was just hiding behind the Murdock family. Let’s not waste our energy on such a petty person.”

 Jessica never expected Cecilia to suddenly be a saint and decide to let Ste off the hook.N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.

 “Cecilia…”

 Of course, Cecilia understood her intentions–Jessica wanted to use her and Nathaniel to exact revenge.

 “Jessica, sometimes it’s better to be merciful.”

 Cecilia patted her on the shoulder.

 Hearing this, Jessica finally gave up and bitterly swallowed her frustration.

 In truth, over an hour earlier, Cecilia had received an apology text from Ste.

 Ste imed she regretted everything and that she had been manipted by Ethan.

 Cecilia knew very well that Ste had only sent those messages out of fear. Naturally, she wouldn’t just let her off the hook.

 Simply sending Ste to prison or banishing her from Tud would be far too easy on her.

 Cecilia had already instructed Sven to investigate why Ste got entangled with the Murdock family.

 At that moment, a call came in. When Cecilia picked up her phone, she saw it was Pa.

 She wasn’t sure what Pa was up to this time, so she answered.

 “Mdm. Pa, what can I do for you?”

 On the other end, Pa was unexpectedly emotional upon hearing Cecilia’s voice.

 “I, I…”

 Having been a malicious mother for so long, Pa now regretted her actions and wanted to make amends, but didn’t know how to begin.

 After a long pause, Pa finally spoke. “I sent you something. Have you received it?”

 “What is it?” Cecilia asked, puzzled.

 Hearing Cecilia’s confusion, Pa realized that she hadn’t received the package yet, so she decided to keep her in suspense.

 “You’ll know once it arrives.”

 “Anything else?” Cecilia’s tone was particrly cold.

 Pa hesitated. “No, nothing else.”

 “Goodbye, then.”

 Cecilia abruptly ended the call.

 Pa stared at the disconnected line, disappointment filling her eyes.

 Meanwhile, the security guard had already brought in the package.
