<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Let’s go, Eli. I will take you to freshen up.” Cecilia reached out to take Elliot’s hand.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Elliot stood outside, giving Nathaniel a quick wink. “No need, Mommy. You should stay with Daddy. Poor Daddy, living all alone out there, enduring the cold and hunger without any family to care for him.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cecilia was somewhat at a loss for words. This young man only cares about his father. Is Nathaniel even that pitiful? He’s wealthier than almost all of the people worldwide. If someone like him could be considered pitiful, wouldn’t the rest of the world have given up on life already?</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“In that case, you stay here with him. I’ll go freshen up.” Cecilia had had enough of Elliot’s antics and headed to the bathroom to freshen up.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">After she finished freshening up and stepped out, she could hear amotioning from the living room. As she approached, she realized that it was Elliot, engrossed in sharing some juicy gossip with Lucille and the others.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“I woke up early today, and when I went to look for Mommy, I saw her and Daddy sleeping</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">together. Daddy wasn’t wearing any clothes,” Elliot said.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Uh huh? And then what?” Lucille’s eyes were filled with curiosity.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Madeline was also listening intently.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Charlotte, who had not really experienced love before, was curious. However, her face had already turned a deep shade of red. She felt she shouldn’t be listening to these things, yet she couldn’t help herself.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“After that, I called out to them. They seemed quite nervous as if they were afraid I’d discovered something. Their eyes kept evading mine.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Those words inevitably led one to ponder.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cecilia truly hadn’t expected this side of Elliot. She walked over and said, “Eli, no more nonsense. Go and freshen up. Breakfast will be ready soon.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Elliot simply wanted the severaldies to understand that Cecilia and Nathaniel were together so that they wouldn’t harbor much hostility toward Nathaniel in the future.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Sure enough, after he left with his head hung low in disappointment, the first to advise Cecilia was Madeline. “Cecilia, have you and Nathaniel made amends yet? Don’t take my previous words to heart. After all, you two already have two sons, and you’re carrying twins. You really need to think about whether or not you should remarry for the sake of giving your children aplete family,” Madeline said.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Charlotte chimed in, “That’s right, Boss. You’re pregnant now, so everything is a struggle for you. If you reconciled with him, you’d have some help.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Lucille, who was standing to the side, found herself inplete agreement with their views, nodding repeatedly.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cecilia didn’t know what to say. “Don’t worry. I’ve been thinking about the matter.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">As she was speaking, a faint noise echoed from upstairs, likely indicating that Nathaniel had emerged.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Everyone promptly fell silent.</font></font>This belongs to N?velDrama.Org - ?.
Nathaniel hadn’t had a good night’s sleep. After freshening up, he intended to change his clothes, only then realizing that this ce was not Daltonia Vi.
He told Mason to deliver some clothes before he emerged from the room, still d in the previous day’s attire.
The few women downstairs were all gazing at Nathaniel. Thankfully, Amelia’s crying in Madeline’s arms broke the odd atmosphere that had settled.
“Amy is hungry. I’m going to feed her.”
Madeline found an excuse to leave.
Lucille also promptly got up. “I have a meeting at thepany this morning, so I won’t be having breakfast. I’ll head to thepany first.”
Charlotte pondered for quite a while before saying, “I’m going to the bathroom.”
These individuals had intentionally left a private space for Cecilia and Nathaniel to be alone.
Nathaniel strolled over to Cecilia, his demeanor calm. “Did you sleep wellst night?”
“Not at all. It was unbearably hot.” Cecilia had no idea what was going on with him. Despite the intense heat, he continued to hold me tightly without letting go. Didn’t he realize how hot it was?
Nathaniel seemed somewhat innocent as he said, “When you feel hot next time, let me know.”
“There won’t be a next time,” Cecilia responded in a cold tone.
Right then, the sound of the doorbell echoed from outside.
