Chapter 1055_When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 1055 Secretly Recorded

 Cassandra couldn’t believe the conversation they had back then was secretly recorded by Cecilia.

 She immediately signaled to the approaching reporter. “Stop taking pictures.”

 However, even if the reporters didn’t record anything or take pictures, the guests who came would.

 “She’s a fake prominent youngdy, then? So, is her real surname Evans or Smith?” one asked.

 Ralph was furious. “My daughter will, of course, carry my surname.”

 “Ah, so Pa was having an affair…” remarked another.

 The Smith family members who hade to attend the funeral were instantly upset.

 “Are you kidding me? You and Pa have been together for a while now. Are you mocking that there’s no one left in the Smith family?” someone eximed.

 The people from the Smith family and the Escobar family instantly started to shout at each other.

 Cecilia watched the scene unfold, feeling nothing but sadness.

 Vivian supported her, fearing she might get innocently caught up in trouble.

 Not too far away, Nichs was closely observing the situation. Initially, he was worried about Cecilia, but it seemed that Cecilia was no longer the same as before, no longer a target for others to bully.

 Magnus was taken aback by that scene.

 He couldn’t quite process it. After all, people from both families were his rtives.

 Cecilia approached him. “Magnus, I’ve made myself clear. I won’t fulfill any filial duties to Pa. I’ll leave her funeral arrangements to you. Also, I won’t fight for her or the Smith family’s wealth either,”

 Magnus looked at Cecilia, feeling an overwhelming sense of unfamiliarity. She has truly changed. In the past. even if she knew the truth, she would never have exposed it in front of so many people and such an unsightly scene.

 “Cecilia, no matter what, you’re still my sister,” Magnus said.

 Nodding, Cecilia said to Vivian, “Let’s go.”

 “All right.” Vivian led Cecilia away.

 When the two children realized that their mom was going to leave so soon, they nned to return before she did.

 Jonathan recorded the scene there before he and Elliot attempted to leave through the back door. However, a figure stood in their way.

 “Does your mother know you two are here?” asked Nichs.

 Even though Nichs had once saved Elliot, thetter was still instinctively afraid of him and chose to stand behind his older brother.

 “Mr. Rainsworth, could you please not tell our mommy?” Jonathan asked, a bit more boldly.

 Nichs‘ eyes were filled with warmth. “All right.”

 “Thank you,” Jonathan expressed his gratitude before swiftly taking Elliot’s hand and leaving.

 Nichs watched the two leave, his expression unreadable..

 Amidst the crowd, Cassandra noticed him. “Nichs…

 She emerged from the group, heading toward Nichs in a disheveled state. “Nichs.”

 Nichs‘ expression remained serene, feigning ignorance about what had transpired. “What happened? Why all thismotion?”

 “It’s all Cecilia’s fault.” There was nothing but resentment in Cassandra’s eyes. “Nichs, you didn’t hear anything just now, did you?”

 She feared Nichs would discover Pa was her actual biological mother and her consistent indifference toward her mother.

 Nichs had seen her true nature clearly long ago. “No, I just came in.”

 Cassandra sighed in relief. All I need to do now is to shut those people up with money.

 Outside the funeral parlor, Cecilia and Vivian were sitting in the car, yet they showed no intention of leaving.N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive ? material.

 “Why aren’t we leaving yet, Ceci?” Vivian thought that once Cecilia had said all she needed to, they would) depart.

 Cecilia nodded. “Just a moment.”

 Although Vivian didn’t understand what Cecilia was waiting for, she obediently sat by thetter’s side.

 At that moment, the people sent by Sven had already arrived at the funeral parlor. They were dressed in casual clothes, indistinguishable from the ordinary people around them.

 Themotion inside had more or less subsided, but the funeral still needed to take ce. Everyone had no choice but to swallow their anger.

 Either way, the Escobar and Smith families had burned their bridges with each other

 Far from feeling they were in the wrong, the Escobar family even took the opportunity to criticize the Smith family for being stingy during their dinner outing.

 Pointing at a few individuals, Cecilia asked Vivian, “Were they the ones who pushed you?”
