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

Chapter 597 Self Defense

Nathaniel couldn’t be bothered to waste any more words on them. He turned to Cecilia and said, “Let’s go.”

Cecilia nodded. “All right.”

The two of them left with Elliot.

Adrian chuckled to himself. “What’s with the act? Does he still think he’s the CEO of Rainsworth Group? What a joke!”

They were oblivious to the storm that was about to engulf them next.

On the way back, Cecilia sincerely thanked Nathaniel, saying, “Thank you for standing up for Eli.”

“He’s my son. Obviously, I would stand up for him. There’s no need to thank me.” Nathaniel’s voice remained chillingly cold.
