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

Chapter 976 What Are You Saying

“Mrs. Rainsworth,” the family doctor greeted Cecilia.

Why is Dr. Lazlo here?

Cecilia felt a pang of fear. Could it be that Nathaniel had lost his memory again?

She nodded to acknowledge Lazlo, then immediately went inside the house.

Upon entering, the housekeepers were standing, while Nathaniel was sitting on the couch. Jessica, dressed in thin clothes, was kneeling on the ground in a disheveled state.

Before her, startlingly, was the powder that the housekeeper had gathered while cleaning the table.

Upon seeing Cecilia approach, Jessica was unable to hold back her tears. “Cecilia, please let me and Nathaniel be together.”

Cecilia was completely bewildered.

What the heck? Even though you share no blood relation with him, I’m the legitimate wife here. Who do you think you are?

The housekeepers were also stunned.

Kneeling, Jessica crawled toward Cecilia. “Cecilia, I’ve loved Nathaniel since we were kids. I really, really like him. You wouldn’t understand this kind of love. I understand that your relationship with Nathaniel was solely familial, it was only because you two had a child that you stayed together. As long as you support me, I promise to treat Jon and Eli well. I will be a good stepmother to them, and I will never mistreat them. If you still have doubts, then I swear I won’t bear any more children in my lifetime. I absolutely won’t allow any other child to threaten their inheritance rights.”
