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

Chapter 919 The Quick Thinking Of Elliot

After sitting down with Elliot, Cecilia waited for Nathaniel’s return.

However, she hadn’t anticipated that Cassandra would come over with a few of the Rainsworth family cousins who were around the same age, and deliberately sit next to her.

“Cecilia, why are you and Eli tucked away in such an inconspicuous corner? I thought you didn’t come.” Cassandra was the first to speak.

The others also sat down. One said, “Cecilia, this must be your child with Nathaniel, right? Such an adorable kid, but I heard he’s suffering from a serious illness, what kind of illness is it?”

The woman seemed to intentionally hit Cecilia’s sore spot, deliberately poking wherever it hurt the most.

Before Cecilia could respond, another woman chimed in, “I recall Granddad mentioning that it’s leukemia.”

“Huh? Leukemia? Isn’t that incurable?” another person exclaimed loudly.

“It seems so. Leukemia can’t be cured.”

Everyone was taking turns, deliberately provoking Cecilia with their words.

Cecilia clenched her fists tightly. The illness that plagued Elliot was her sore spot. It was also the subject she didn’t know how to retort to.

Elliot immediately realized the women held ill intentions at first glance. He couldn’t help but voice out, “Mommy, have these madams never been to school?”
