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

Chapter 284 First Love

+5 Pearls

Suddenly, Cecilia felt a wave of sadness and disappointment wash over her. After all these years of being married and part of the Rainsworth family, she had never once asked them for anything.

Instead, she had given everything she had to Nathaniel.

Yet, in the end, the Rainsworth family were afraid of her taking their wealth.

Should I laugh or cry at this ridiculous notion?

Cecilia glanced at Elena and remarked, “Well, it all depends on the court’s decision.”

She did not want their money, but at that moment, she did want to reassure Elena.

As expected, Elena became anxious and uneasy. As she watched Cecilia walk out of the restaurant,

she immediately pulled out her phone and called Nathaniel.

Nathaniel and Cecilia had been married for eight years.

Over the course of those eight years, the growth of the Rainsworth Group was beyond anyone’s expectations. It evolved from a domestic business, successfully went public, and eventually ranked among the top hundred conglomerates worldwide.

If one were to consider dividing the value of the Rainsworth Group between Nathaniel and Cecilia over the span of eight years, the amount that Cecilia would receive exceeds hundreds of billions.

“Where are you now, Nathaniel?” Elena asked impatiently as soon as the call connected.

“My office.”

Nathaniel had also seen the news report and was having his men find out the person responsible for the information leak.

“I just spoke to Cecilia,” Elena said, her voice trembling with indignation. “The reports are right. She’s really after the Rainsworth Group. That woman is certainly ambitious!”
