Chapter 372 Take It Easy

Jonathan was taken aback.

Clearly, he hadn't figured out how to answer this question.

Nathaniel’s lips parted slightly. “I won't hurt her, but words alone may not be enough. You're welcto keep an

eye onat all times.”

Upon hearing his words, Jonathan was surprised. But without hesitation, he responded, “All right, it’s a deal. Ill

make sure to keep a close eye on you.”

After their discussion, Jonathan closed his eyes, intending to sleep.

However, he had started sleeping alone when he was just two or three years old. Now, having a grown man lying

beside him was truly out of his comfort zone.

He tossed and turned, unable to sleep, yet he couldn't just leave like that.

What if Nathaniel took advantage of his absence to go find Cecilia?

The night was difficult to endure, but by the break of dawn, he was up again and escorted to the preschool by

Sven.

Meanwhile, Magnus fled back to Tudela overnight, his heart filled with lingering fear.

He was somewhat perplexed. It was Nathaniel who had instructed him to seek out Cecilia, so how. did they end

up living together?

Recalling the lethal gaze in Nathaniel’s eyes from yesterday, he felt a sense of fear.

He didn’t dare to ask Orion Corporation for money anymore and returned hdisheartened.

In the mansion, Paula informed Cassandra that they had already received news about Cecille.

“I heard she’s about to return soon. We'll be able to see her in no time.”

Cassandra reached out and embraced her. “Mom, you're the best.”

“Of course.”

Upon seeing Magnus’ disheveled state, Paula couldn't help but express her concern. “Where have you been

messing around this time? You didn’t cback all night?”

Naturally, Magnus wouldn't tell the truth.

“I went out for a drink.”

Cassandra, standing off to the side, was growing increasingly irritated. “Magnus, don’t parade around using the

Evans family’s nto deceive people. If my father finds out, you won't be able to handle the consequences.”

Magnus had been scared by Nathaniel the previous night, and now Cassandra's intimidation further enraged

him.

“Cassandra, who do you think you are to criticize me? Don’t forget, without me, Magnus, your father would be

nothing but a man relying on women!”

Paula slapped him across the face. “Is that how you speak to your sister? Go back to your room.”

Magnus looked at Paula in disbelief before reluctantly leaving.

Even though he was Paula’s son, he couldn't fathom why his mother showed such blatant favoritism toward

Cassandra. After all, Cassandra was merely the daughter of Ralph's ex-wife. Yet, ever since they arrived at the

Evans residence, his mother’s bias was painfully clear.

Seeing Magnus get slapped, Cassandra scoffed, “Mom, | only let him stay because of you. If he continues to be

ungrateful, he can get out of my house.”

The words “my house” made Paula feel a little upset but she did not show it.

“Cassandra, don’t be angry.”

Cassandra rose to her feet, her face filled with pride as she returned to her room.

Cassandra’s arrogant demeanor only fueled Magnus’ frustration further. “Mom, why are you so nice to

Cassandra? She's not even your real daughter.”

“What do you know? Just go back to your room.” Paula didn’t want to engage in further conversation with him.

Reluctantly, Magnus returned to his room.

That afternoon, Charlotte arrived in Tudela. She promptly sent a message to Cecilia, notifying her that she was

ready to meet with clients at any time.

Cecilia informed her to schedule a meeting with a client for the next day.

“Sure,” Charlotte agreed instantly.

Seeing her still busy with work despite being pregnant, Martha couldn't help but feel concerned.

“Take it easy. Don’t exhaust yourself.”

Cecilia sat next to Martha, shaking her head. “Don’t worry, I'm not tired. Lottie is going to a meeting. I'm just

going to sit in and listen.”

After what happened last night, she needed to rest well, considering the child in her womb.

“Okay.”

Martha nodded, feeling a touch of worry. Calvin had often reached out to her previously, but since his last «

departure, there had been no news from him at all.
