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

Chapter 674 Meeting Elena

After dinner that evening, Norman called Cecilia. He informed her that the court session would be starting in a few days and asked if she was prepared.

The necessary evidence had been prepared long ago. What Norman was truly concerned about was whether Cecilia was mentally prepared. After all, she was about to face her own mother and brother in court.

“Yes, I’m ready,” declared Cecilia with an exceptional resolve.

Regardless of whether Paula was ill or not, she was determined to reclaim the Smith family’s assets that were rightfully hers.

Coincidentally, the court case was scheduled after the All Souls‘ Day. Cecilia and Nathaniel had to return to the Rainsworth Manor for the memorial.

The next day, after Jonathan returned, Cecilia, along with the two brothers and Nathaniel, first visited the cemetery in the western suburbs to pay their respects to Regas and Martha. Only afterward did they head to the Rainsworth Manor.

On the way, Elliot excitedly talked to Jonathan about the live streaming, while Jonathan listened with little interest, offering only brief, indifferent replies.

Meanwhile, at Rainsworth Manor, Elena, upon hearing that her eldest grandson would be arriving that day, eagerly prepared a pile of gifts in anticipation. She had known Jonathan for quite some time and had gone to great lengths in the past just to see him. When she finally learned that Jonathan was indeed her grandson, her joy was beyond words.
