Chapter 402 Bad News Travels Fast

In the car, Elliot kept his head down, not daring to utter a word.

Cecilia had never been as angry and worried as she was that day. She didn’t question her son but waited for him

to speak first.

Nathaniel was also in the car. He told Mason to call off the search for Elliot.

After arriving hand Nathaniel had gone to work, Elliot began to act coy.

“I'm sorry, Mommy. | just missed you and Mr. Rainsworth too much, so | went to look for your both.”

He apologized in a charmingly cute demeanor.

In the past, whenever he apologized, his mother would becsoft-hearted and forgive him.

But this time, Cecilia’s expression remained icy cold.

Elliot was somewhat flustered, at a loss for a moment.

He was just about to go upstairs to seek advice from Martha, but no sooner had he taken two steps away than

Cecilia ordered, “Stop.”

Elliot promptly stood there obediently.

“I truly realized my mistake, Mommy.”

“You just wanted to seeand Mr. Rainsworth?” Cecilia suddenly asked.

Elliot's mesmerizing eyes constricted. “I was wrong, Mommy. I'm sorry.”

Cecilia stared at his slightly pale face, yet she showed no signs of softening.

“If you dare leave hwithout tellingagain in the future, I'm never going to bother about. you anymore,”

she warned.

Only then did Elliot realize that she was genuinely angry. He nodded fervently. “It won't happen. again. |

promise.”

He was always in the hospital by himself, either undergoing chemotherapy or taking medication.

Verily, he didn’t want to be alone forever.

“Am | to return to the hospital today, Mommy?” Elliot asked in a whisper.

At the word “hospital,” Cecilia's heart inexorably clenched painfully. “Be good and wait a little longer, Eli. We'll be

able to proceed with the surgery soon.”

“Okay.”

Nodding, Elliot hugged his mother.

Thankfully, Mommy still cares aboutand has no plans to abandon me.

In the afternoon, Cecilia took Elliot back to the hospital.

Once the doctor had finished examining him, Cecilia recalled Elliot saying that he wanted to see Nathaniel. She

couldn't help but ask, “Do you like Mr. Rainsworth, Eli?”

Elliot choked.

How could | possibly like scxmbag daddy? But since Mommy asked this much, she certainly doesn’t want a

negation.

“Yes, | like him.”

Upon hearing her son admit to liking Nathaniel, Cecilia gently patted his head, the idea within her intensifying

further.

She then got into the car and headed home.

On the way home, the car rabroadcasted a piece of news. It was reported that Nathaniel had indeed lost his

sight, and sreporters managed to snap pictures of him and Nicholas together.

Her brows furrowed slightly. Sure enough, bad news travels fast.

As soon as the news broke, it garnered attention from all walks of life.

Paula also saw the news. Just a few days ago, she agreed to let Cassandra meet with Nathaniel. Unexpectedly,

the latter had then lost his sight.

Cassandra had just stepped off the stage, her newly purchased song, coupled with her dance, having catapulted

her into the limelight in a flash.

When she returned home, she saw the news as well.

“Wasn't Nathaniel unharmed?”

“The person who was unharmed was probably Nicholas,” Magnus, who was seated on the sofa and scrolling

through his phone, suddenly divulged.

Ever since he was last ordered around by Nicholas and subsequently scolded by Nathaniel, he had grown

suspicious.

After seeing the news then, he finally understood that it was Nathaniel who had been living with Cecilia while the

person at the company was Nicholas all this time.

“What do you mean by that, Magnus?” Paula asked, setting the glass of water in her hand down.

Magnus could only tell them about him asking Nathaniel for help and the ensuing snafu deceived.”

She looked at Cassandra. “Cassandra, do you still want to meet with Nathaniel?”

“No, it's okay. Dad has already setup on a blind date with Nicholas.”

From the moment Cassandra first learned of the news, she had given up on Nathaniel.

She couldn’t imagine spending the rest of her life with a blind man. Besides, Nathaniel was still married right

then.

Nicholas looked exactly like him, so it would be better for her to be with his brother. &
