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.

Cecilia felt as though he had swallowed gunpowder, and thus, she stopped speaking.

Nathaniel then added, his voice steady and calm, “Do you really believe that Eli didn’t deceive Felix into going to the artificial hill?”

“Would Eli know how to do such a thing?” Cecilia asked.

She had always regarded Elliot as a harmless little rabbit.

Nathaniel fell silent for a moment, choosing not to show Cecilia the later part of the surveillance footage.
