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

Chapter 1312 Fresh Air

"Nathaniel, please save me," pleaded Jessica, as she reached out to grasp Nathaniel's hand.

Nathaniel dodged away, filled with distaste.

Jessica's hand froze mid-air, her face, marred with bruises, looked especially pitiful.

Jessica glanced again at Cecilia before shifting her gaze toward Cecilia's protruding belly. Is this b*tch pregnant? If I didn't leave back then, I would be married to Nathaniel. She wouldn't even be in the picture! "Nathaniel, Cecilia, please... You have to help me. Blaine is nothing short of a monster. H-He wants me dead. I barely managed to escape. Just look at me! I'm covered in injuries!"

As Jessica spoke, she simultaneously let the couple examine the injuries on her body.

Even in moments like these, she didn't forget her little tricks, subtly revealing certain parts of herself for Nathaniel to see.

Cecilia saw through her cunning schemes, feeling nothing but disdain in her heart.

"When something like this happens, shouldn't you be calling the police? It's not like we can do much," Cecilia remarked. With that, turning to Nathaniel, she added, "Do you want to help Jessica by reporting this to the police?" Obediently, Nathaniel pulled out his phone and handed it to Jessica, saying, "Here. You can borrow my phone."

Jessica's face stiffened a bit, and she looked at the two in disbelief.

"Are you just going to turn a blind eye?" Tears rolled down Jessica's cheeks. "If my grandpa knew, he would certainly-"
