Chapter 153 She Had Been Played

All Cecilia could do was gaze from a distance at the sea of pink begonias blooming outside the courtyard.

“I didn’t expect them to still be here,” she murmured.

Sven followed her gaze, and what met his eyes were the beautiful begonia flowers, truly a delightful sight to

behold.

The mansion appeared quaint, yet it was brimming with vitality. It was evident that the original owner had put a

lot of thought and care into its construction.

“What is this?” Sven couldn't help but ask.

“The h| grew up in in Tudela,” Cecilia replied.

Regrettably, she no longer had the right enter the mansion.

“Let's go.” Cecilia shifted her gaze away.

The vehicle slowly pulled away.

Cecilia hadn't noticed a man hiding in the nearby shrubs. The man looked a bit disheveled, having been secretly

lurking there for a while.

After taking a stroll around the city, Cecilia requested Sven to drive her back to Daltonia Villa.

Afterward, she was in the music room, playing the piano while simultaneously writing sheet music.

The bodyguard reported Cecilia's itinerary to Nathaniel

Later that night, Nathaniel deliberately spent extra tat the office.

Around nine, he instructed his driver to head toward the café on Cross Street.

At this moment, Cecilia too had boarded a car, coming over from Daltonia Villa.

Her phone vibrated. Upon checking, it was a message from Sven that read: Nathaniel’s car has indeed headed

toward Cross Street.

Upon returning to Daltonia Villa, Cecilia asked Sven to keep an eye on Rainsworth Group, to see where Nathaniel

would go that evening.

It was just as she had anticipated..

Stella was still fond of tattling as always.

There were hardly any people in the café at night.

Stella had reserved a private room, which conveniently offered a view of the scenery outside.

Cecilia arrived here right on schedule.

She was clad in a long dress, with a light jacket draped over her to conceal the allergic red spots. on her body.

In truth, even if she wasn’t allergic, she would always prepare a jacket when going out for toot long, due to her

fear of the cold, even in the summer.

The present Cecilia was completely different from when Stella first returned to the country a few years ago..

Her appearance and attire were striking, instantly capturing attention. She had regained her pre- marriage

figure, and her face radiated an extraordinary elegance that left a profound impression on anyone who saw her.

Stella felt a tinge of jealousy toward her.

Although her mother, Paula, hadn't treated her well, she had undeniably inherited Paula’s stunning looks.

particularly her physique. It was evident she was the daughter of a renowned. dancer.

“Take a seat, Ceci. Let's talk, she said, suppressing the bitterness in her heart and quietly placing her mobile

phone on the table.

The call had already been made to Nathaniel. Outside, he could hear the conversation between the two.

Cecilia settled herself into a chair.

Subsequently, Stella presented a check worth a hundred million. “Ceci, you askedto prepare ten billion, and

then leave Nathaniel. | really couldn't gather that much money, and even if | could, | don’t think it would be right

to give it to you. After all, Nathaniel isn’t a commodity. He isn’t something you can just sell off. Take this one

hundred million, and use it as you see fit. Consider it a personal sponsorship from me.”

On the other end of the phone, Nathaniel was seated in his car. Listening to Stella's words, his brows furrowed

deep in thought.

Did Cecilia really approach Stella and demand ten billion in exchange for me? She sure has quite the idea!

With that in mind, he quietly continued to listen.

As long as Cecilia accepted that hundred million, he would immediately head over and take her back to Daltonia

Villa.

She could forget about ever having any freedom, then.

However, Cecilia pushed away that one billion and countered Stella's question by asking. “Didn't you ask me

how much money it would take forto leave Nathaniel? Why are you setting a Stella paused. When have |

ever said that?

“I've told you before, | have no need for your tainted money. Back when the Smith family went bankrupt, you,

who owed them so much, didn’t lift a finger to help. And now, all of a sudde you're acting all kind?” Cecilia

continued.

Stella looked at Cecilia in shock. “But you were the one who said-

“I'll say it again. Nathaniel and | are still married. Even if he doesn’t love me, | won't leave him!” Cecilia's gaze

landed on Stella’s upside-down phone.

She knew that Stella was probably on the phone with Nathaniel at that moment.

As for Stella, she realized that she had been played by Cecilia.

Livid, she then discreetly picked up her phone and ended the call.

Inside the black Cadillac, Nathaniel silently listened to the conversation between the two individuals. He then «

instructed the driver. “Head back home.”
