What Cecilia was unaware of, was that all along, Nathaniel had been silently enduring.

He understood better than anyone, the danger that lurked when he was blind. There were countless people who

wished him dead. Now was not the tfor him to cling to his pride.

“Thank you.”

Cecilia sat down and handed him a piece of pastry. “You should cat too.”

The sight of the two sharing pastries fell upon Nicholas’ gaze, his typically warm eyes suddenly turned somewhat

icy.

When his assistant, Jocelyn, arrived, she immediately noticed Cecilia and Nathaniel tucked away in the corner at

first glance.

Despite being subjected to the ridicule of others, the two of them didn’t care at all, completely engrossed in their

own world.

Jocelyn studied Cecilia closely and saw that she was indeed beautiful. Every gesture of hers. radiated a gentle

elegance, especially her eyes, which were like crystal-clear springs, utterly. captivating. It was no wonder

Nathaniel was reluctant to divorce her.

Elena endured the scolding passively, offering no retort.

It wasn’t until the butler announced that it was tthat she finally stepped out.

Niel, leaning on his cane, was surprised to see Cecilia had also arrived. Without saying a word, he suggested

everyone have their meal first before proceeding with the memorial.

At that moment, Elena heard from the housekeeper that Jonathan had arrived.

“The weather is chilly now. Let the child rest properly and prepare sdelicious food for him.”

The housekeeper nodded.

Elliot was led back to his room by the maid, taking in the opulent architecture around him on his way.

“Where's Grandma Elena?”

“Mdm. Elena is quite busy today,” the housekeeper said. “She suggested that you rest in the room for now. As

soon as she’s done, she’ll cto see you. You'll be staying here for the night.”

“Thank you.”

Elliot had an innocent look on his face.

“Such a sweet talker.” The housekeeper was instantly charmed by the adorable and sensible Elliot.

Meanwhile, Cecilia was unaware that her younger son had secretly taken a cab to the location, planning to have

dinner with Nathaniel, pay respects to their ancestors, and then head back.

Unexpectedly, after they had finished eating, Niel insisted they stay. “You'll be staying here. tonight,” he said.

“I heard you're pregnant?” Niel asked Cecilia.

Cecilia admitted to it as she knew she couldn't hide for long. “Yes.”

Upon hearing this, Niel’s face instantly lit up with joy. “At last, our Rainsworth family has another. descendant.”

“Whatever you desire, just tell your mom. Don’t be shy.”

Niel had always been a man who prioritized profit above all else.

When her father was still alive, he had a special fondness for Cecilia.

After his death, the Smith family went bankrupt, and he grew distant, barely speaking to her.

However, when he learned that Cecilia was pregnant, he began to show sconcern once more.

“All right.”

“Go and rest, I'm tired as well.”

Niel left, leaning on his walking stick, and Cecilia and Nathaniel were guided back to their residence by the

servant.

Along the way, they were met with a chorus of mockery.

From a distance, Miranda, Adrian's wife, watched them with sconfusion. She had distinctly told Cecilia that

the man she might be in love with wasn’t necessarily Nathaniel.

So why, now that Nicholas had returned, did Cecilia not even glance his way?

Her questions remained unanswered.

Cecilia no longer cared about the surrounding mockery. After returning to the room with. Nathaniel, she called

the caregiver, stating they would return the next day.

After she hung up the phone, Nathaniel said solemnly, “I'm sorry you had to go through that today.”

Cecilia was taken aback.

To be honest, she didn’t feel slighted at all that day. Perhaps it was because she just didn’t care anymore.

Back when she was living in the Rainsworth residence, her grievance stemmed from the fact that Nathaniel, her

own husband, clearly had the capability to protect her from being bullied. Yet, he simply stood by and watched

as she was mistreated.

Now, she no longer felt the way she used to.

“Don’t worry, | chere of my own accord.”

After finishing her statement, Cecilia further clarified, “Don’t overthink it. | cover because | didn’t want to

which led to your eye injury.”
