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

Chapter 1988

Chapter 1988 Facing Reality

Although Heather had been driven out by her two sons, she still had a bit of money left. Therefore, she was now residing in a hotel outside town.

As soon as she returned to the hotel, she was bombarded with a series of harsh words over the phone from her two sons.

Heather had fully realized the severity of the situation, but it was too late for regrets.

"Now that Cecilia doesn't want to see me, what am I supposed to do?"

"What else can you do? Go see her at her company, or wait for her somewhere else. If you don't fix this issue, we'll cut ties with you!"

Usually, it was the children who ruined their parents, not the other way round.

Thus, James and Jonah couldn't help but resent their mother.

Their wives even declared, "That old hag is nothing but trouble. Let her perish alone out there!"

Before she had even hung up the phone, Heather heard her daughter-in-law's curses. This time, she didn't retort, as she had made a promise to her son.

After hanging up the phone, she felt as if all her energy had been drained away. Heather had always favored her sons over her daughter. She treated her two sons exceptionally well but was quite harsh toward Paula.

However, Paula was extremely capable. She was born beautiful and managed to become a budding star in the dance industry. In addition, she married Cecilia's adopted father.

From a young age, Paula was subjected to unfair treatment. However, she never saw it as an issue. She often aided her family, generously supporting them with her husband's wealth.
