When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 1914 The Lucky Ones

Upon seeing the situation, Cecilia raised her hand and gently rubbed Nathaniel's cold, stern face.

"Tell me what's going on! Or else, I'm going to get upset, and I won't share anything with you in the future."

After hearing that, Nathaniel was filled with helplessness. He had no choice but to relay everything his father had said that day to Cecilia.

Cecilia found it simply unbelievable.

"How could Dad do this? Uncle Robert is clearly the one in the wrong, yet he just wants to casually sweep this under the rug."

"I only just found out, too. He never truly considered what's best for us."

Wren had always yearned for a harmonious family. However, he was oblivious to the fact that the harmony he sought was merely superficial.

When it came down to it, he was essentially a saint.

He sacrificed his own family's interests to please others, thinking that it could preserve the slightest bit of kinship. It was truly a pathetic and laughable act.

Before, Cecilia used to think that Nathaniel's family was happy. At that moment, however, she realized that every family had its own set of hardships.

"So, what's your plan?" asked Cecilia.

"I didn't agree to his suggestion."

Nathaniel knew that he had to steel his heart that day.

Cecilia nodded. "Okay."

Upon reaching Jamieson Group, Nathaniel and Cecilia parted ways, after which Nathaniel proceeded to Imminence Corporation.

As soon as Cecilia arrived at the office, she summoned Lucille and Charlotte into her office. She then presented them with the thank-you gifts prepared by Kingston and Phoebe.

"Go ahead and choose for yourselves."

There were three antique porcelain pieces in total. Cecilia didn't make a choice. Instead, she allowed them to pick first.

Lucille looked puzzled. "This is an antique, right? It seems like it should be worth a good amount of money."

Cecilia gave a noncommittal nod, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.

She informed the two of them about the identity of the person they had rescued the night before last.

Charlotte and Lucille were both taken aback, with Charlotte exclaiming, "Is this like hitting the jackpot for us?"

As she spoke, she simultaneously scoured the internet to gauge the value of the antique.

"Boss, these three pieces of porcelain are worth tens of millions!"

"That's right." Cecilia nodded.

"Can we really accept something so valuable?" Charlotte had never received a gift of such worth before.

Lucille was also astounded. "Tens of millions?"

"Yes! I did a quick online search, and it turns out it's priceless." Charlotte showed her.

Lucille didn't dare to accept the gift either.

"Ceci, perhaps we shouldn't take it. We didn't really help much anyway."

"Exactly, Boss. Forget it. We don't want these gifts," Charlotte chimed in.

She felt that such a gift was too

valuable. If she accepted it just like

that, it didn't seem to align

good deed she had done, the

Cecilia actually reflected their mindset. However, considering what Nathaniel and Elena had said, those three gifts were nothing to Chelsea's family If they didn't accept them, it would instead leave them feeling uneasy.

Cecilia had the two of them accept the gifts and explained to them that Chelsea's

family was not in need of those things.

Lucille and Charlotte then each took a piece of porcelain and left.

Holding items worth tens of millions in their hands, they found it somewhat unbelievable.

Charlotte sighed deeply and said, “In

, we must certainly strive

toore good deeds and belk

better people."

Lucille let out a chuckle.

"We're indeed fortunate. Vivian and Madeline didn't follow us out, so only we and Ceci have these gifts."

"Absolutely right!"

The two of them left, engaged in cheerful conversation and laughter.

Over at Iminence Corporation, Nathaniel didn't forget the tasks that Cecilia had assigned him the day before.

He summoned Mason and instructed, "Arrange a car. Let's go check out the branch company over at Magnus' end."

Mason was puzzled. "Why the sudden need to go to that branch company?"

"There's something to do there," Nathaniel responded.noveldrama

Upon hearing that, Mason didn't press further. He nodded, made a call for a car, and waited downstairs.
