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

Chapter 198 Accept It Without Regret

At Daltonia Villa, just as Cecilia finished her call with Vivian, Calvin’s call came through.

She answered promptly, and Calvin said, “I arranged for Sean to meet with Stella again today.” Cecilia’s heart skipped a beat. Is Stella really hurt by Sean?

“Do you know?” Calvin continued. “That woman wanted him dead. If it weren’t for my men, he would have nearly lost his life.”

Calvin explained that he had been orchestrating events to reveal Stella’s true nature to Sean. However, Sean, stubbornly refusing to believe the truth, even went so far as to find Stella’s house. Initially, Stella pretended to offer comfort, but later, she shockingly slipped him a sleeping pill. Once he was unconscious, she planned to stage an accidental death by turning on the gas. Fortunately, Calvin’s men intervened in time and rescued Sean, forcibly removing Stella before her plan could succeed.

Stella, in a state of panic, began to harm herself and then played the victim, claiming that an obsessed fan had broken into her home and attacked her.

Cecilia was shocked and horrified to hear that. I can’t believe how cruel Stella is!

Her suspicions were confirmed–this entire situation was nothing more than a deceitful act orchestrated by Stella herself.

Calvin grew concerned when Cecilia didn’t immediately respond. “Cecilia, are you all right?”

Cecilia replied, snapping back to reality. “I just
