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

Chapter 974 Sending Them All Away

“What is this?” the nanny wondered aloud, puzzled.

Their home was well–staffed with servants, and Nathaniel was somewhat of a clean freak. There was never a speck of dust on the floor, so how could there be white powder near the water dispenser?

The nanny took a cloth, meticulously wiped away the powder, and then casually tossed it into the trash bin.

Meanwhile, Jessica had already passed the water to Nathaniel.

“Nathaniel, this is warm water.”

Nathaniel took the glass without a second thought and drank a few sips.

As Jessica watched him drink the water, her heartbeat involuntarily quickened.

Once Nathaniel had almost finished his drink, she promptly took his glass. “I’ll go rinse this out. If you want more water, just let me know, and I’ll pour more for you.”

Jessica knew that the glass held evidence. She swiftly moved toward the sink to rinse the glass thoroughly, ensuring there were no residues left inside.

The nanny had been discreetly observing her, finding her particularly odd that day, especially as Jessica washed the same glass over and over again.
