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

Chapter 482 Paternity Test

News of Paula’s assault had caused an uproar in Tudela, and no amount of money could resolve the situation quickly.

For the first time, Paula was gripped by overwhelming fear.

When Cecilia returned, she went to visit her in jail.

The once radiant and glamorous Paula was now a mere shadow of her former self, pale and drained.
