When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel)

Chapter 10 The Fall Of Smith Corporation

When Cecilia turned on the news, the headline that caught her eye was a press conference held by Rainsworth Group. They announced that Nathaniel had successfully acquired Smith Corporation.

From that moment, Smith Corporation ceased to exist.

On the screen, a photograph of Nathaniel appeared—his profile was strikingly handsome, exuding an air of confidence and vigor.

Beneath the photo, comments flooded in.

Nathaniel is incredibly handsome, so young, and already the CEO of a corporation.

It’s a pity he’s married, but isn’t his wife the daughter of the Smith family?

A business marriage, remember? Three years ago, when it was time to get married, Nathaniel simply abandoned the bride and left…

The internet had a long memory.

Cecilia had almost forgotten about the day three years ago when she was abandoned at the altar. The memory of Nathaniel storming off in anger had started to fade. She continued scrolling through the comments.

For the past three years, she had known that Smith Corporation would fall, but she hadn’t expected it to happen so quickly.

Recently, Nathaniel had been particularly at ease. The acquisition of Smith Corporation marked the settling of a great score.

Zachary chuckled and said, “Three years ago, the Smith family deceived you with that marriage, and now they’ve finally gotten what they deserve.” He turned to Nathaniel, who was working beside him, and asked, “Nathaniel, has the little deaf been begging these past few days?”

Nathaniel paused, his pen hovering over the paper. For some reason, people around him kept bringing up Cecilia.

Why, even after the divorce, is she still lingering in my mind?
