Chapter 24 Update On Her Condition

Ever since Zachary found out that Cecilia was pregnant, he had the hospital staff keep him updated on her condition.

For some reason, Nathaniel’s heart suddenly trembled.

“What’s the matter?”

“I don’t know the full details. When I went to the hospital today, I heard the doctors say that Cecilia had died.”

Those words hit Nathaniel like a bolt of lightning.

Died? How could that be possible? She had been perfectly fine just last night!

He jumped to his feet, dizziness following closely behind. “What exactly happened?”

“The doctors said Cecilia was brought in last night and died this moming despite their efforts to save her.”

Without another word, Nathaniel grabbed the suit jacket he had tossed aside and rushed out the door.

He drove straight to the hospital.

Along the way, Cecilia’s parting words from last night echoed in his ears, “Mr. Rainsworth, I want to ask you, if I died, would you be sad?”

For reasons unknown, Nathaniel suddenly found it difficult to breathe.

He yanked open the top two buttons of his shirt, but it still felt like he couldn’t get enough air.
