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

Chapter 134 Child Support

Half an hour later, Cecilia returned to her room to rest.

Meanwhile, Nathaniel was still in the study.

When Vivian called Cecilia, she was stunned to hear that she had to return a betrothal gift worth a whopping seven point nine billion.

“How can you possibly repay such a large sum of money? Besides, it was your brother and mother who swindled it. Why should you be the one to pay it back?”

Cecilia sat on the balcony, letting the breeze awaken her senses.

“I had a long talk with him today. He had never agreed to let bygones be bygones. This time, as long as I pay him back, he promised that he wouldn’t bring up the fraudulent marriage again…”

Vivian couldn’t help but find it odd.

“Ceci, why do I always get the feeling that he’s trying to trick you? He’s the CEO of Rainsworth Group. How can he be short of that amount of money? If you must know, I did a bit of research. Just the rent collected from Rainsworth Group’s properties nationwide is no less than sixty billion a year. Not to mention Rainsworth Group’s other real estates, internet, and a series of other projects… Didn’t you hear what people from abroad say? They claim that Nathaniel’s wealth surpasses that of some nations.”
