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

Chapter 768 Stay The Night

Roughly eight years ago, around the time when Cecilia and Nathaniel had just gotten married, Elena brought Jessica to Daltonia Villa. Back then, the young lady appeared radiant and friendly.

She approached Cecilia and chatted with her when the latter was still adjusting to her new life.

Even now, Cecilia vividly remembered how utterly nauseating her words had been.

They were alone at that time, and she said, “Cecilia, you’re not as pretty as the woman Nathaniel used to date. Nathaniel adored his ex–girlfriend and pampered her. It’s such a shame that she hails from a less fortunate family. Otherwise, she would’ve married Nathaniel. They even took a couple’s photo before…”

Jessica ran her mouth like an innocent child.

Back then, Cecilia loved Nathaniel. She couldn’t quite put her feelings into words upon hearing Jessica mention Nathaniel and Stella’s past, even going as far as to compare her to Stella.

All she could do was bear with the insulting words.

Before she left, Jessica even said, “Cecilia, please don’t share what I told you with Nathaniel. He’d be upset with me. He doesn’t like it when I mention his ex.”

Looking back now, Cecilia thought Jessica was an utterly disgusting woman.
