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

Chapter 223 Children Are Fond Of Kind People

Elena presented each of the valuable toys she had brought before Jonathan, hoping to lift his spirits.

Little did anyone know, Jonathan had no interest in those toys at all. “Thank you, Grandma. Elena, but my mommy told me not to accept things from strangers,” he said.

Cecilia had to restrain herself from rushing over.

She was still uncertain whether Elena had recognized Jonathan or not, so she couldn’t let her emotions get the best of her.

Elena crouched in front of Jonathan. Upon hearing him say that she was still a stranger to him, a wave of discomfort washed over her from the depths of her heart.

“Jon, how could I possibly be a stranger to you? We’ve known each other for at least a few months now, haven’t we? I truly adore you.”

Thinking that he was referring to Vivian when he mentioned his mommy, Elena asked, “Is your mommy worried about me? I will invite her over for a chat after Thanksgiving tomorrow. That way, we won’t be strangers anymore, right?”

Jonathan hadn’t expected that Elena, who bullied his mother, would persistently pursue her. Over the past month, for twenty days, she had been using the excuse of picking up Felix to seek him out every day.
