    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Chapter 1009 Granting A Wish</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">When Cecilia returned to Daltonia Vi, she heard chaos erupting from within the mansion.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Mr. Elliot, you can’t throw that… It’s an antique Mr. Rainsworth adores the most-”</font></font>


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


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Before the housekeeper could finish speaking, the antique had shattered into fragments all over the floor.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cecilia quickly stepped inside, and upon seeing her, the housekeeper seemed to have spotted her savior.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Mrs. Rainsworth, you’re finally back. Mr. Elliot is currently causing a fuss with Mr. Rainsworth. He simply won’t listen to reason.”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Everything was fine when I left in the morning. What’s happening? In a rush, Cecilia hurriedly moved inside.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Not long after she entered the mansion, Jessica followed suit.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">She informed the security guard that she had returned with Cecilia, and only then did the guard let her pass.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">When Cecilia entered the mansion, she found that both the living room and the dining room were inplete disarray. The source of the chaos was the study.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Mr. Elliot, that’s aputer… Don’t drop it in there!”</font></font>This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Upon ascending the stairs, Cecilia found that Elliot had already tossed theptop into the sink.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Elliot!”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Involuntarily, Cecilia raised her voice.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Elliot instantly halted his actions, looking up at Cecilia Mommy, you’re back.”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">He nervously wiped his hands, tucking them behind his back.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cecilia’s eyes were ame with anger. Due to Elliot’s frail health, she had indeed been slightly overindulgent with him. However, never had he been as outrageous as he was that day.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“What are you doing?” she asked.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Elliot had initially braced himself for Cecilia’s anger, yet when he actually confronted it, his heart couldn’t help but flutter with anxiety.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">He wanted to lie, but when he met Cecilia’s gaze, he couldn’t utter a single falsehood.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cecilia stepped forward. “Who gave you the right to recklessly throw and smash things around?”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Elliot lowered his head, falling silent.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">A wave of guilt washed over Cecilia when she saw him in such a state.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">However, she had to teach her child not to misbehave. “Why are you doing this? Answer me.”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Elliot finally responded, “Mommy, I know he’s nning to divorce you. He wants to abandon his wife and children. We can’t just let him off the hook.”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Needless to say, he was talking about Nathaniel.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Subconsciously, Cecilia assumed that Nathaniel informed Elliot about the divorce when he took him to the hospital that day.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">She was somewhat irate, storming off to the study next door where Nathaniel was seated.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Did you tell Eli that we’re getting a divorce?” Cecilia asked.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">At this point, there wasn’t much left for Nathaniel to rify. He simply replied, “Yes. The child will eventually find out.”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Elliot followed along, finding it odd upon hearing what Nathaniel said. I overheard the news of the divorce. Why would sc*mbag daddy admit that he was the one who told me?</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">The fire in Cecilia’s heart burned even fiercer. She strode toward Nathaniel, her fist mming into his shoulder. “You’ve gone too far!” she eximed.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Regardless of whether it was Jonathan or Elliot, from their childhood to adulthood, they had such a deep longing for their father’s love.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">After much difficulty, they finally started to ept Nathaniel. However, he was on the verge of destroying everything they hade to ept.</font></font>


    When it came to breaking the news of their divorce to the two children, Cecilia thought they had to discuss it thoroughly first before telling the kids about it slowly and in a sensible manner.


    Nathaniel simply let her hit him.


    “Haven’t you always wanted a divorce?” He paused momentarily before continuing, “I’m granting you that now. I won’t ask for the children either, even the two you’re carrying in your womb.”


    His words struck her like a bolt of lightning. Cecilia didn’t want to ponder why he had suddenly changed. She simply said, “All right. It’s your call. Just don’t regret it. We’ll get a divorce tomorrow.”


    Jessica had also arrived outside the corridor, where she overheard the news about Cecilia and Nathaniel’s impending divorce. They were inseparable. Yet, within just a few days, they’ve had a falling out.
