When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 1340

Chapter 1340 The Trap
Upon hearing this, Cecilia quickly checked.

She had initially assumed that the contract had been altered to favor the Jamieson family. However, to her surprise, the contract essentially allowed them to collaborate for free.

“Did she make a mistake?”

Just as Cecilia was about to call Cassina to inquire, a piece of paper fell out of the contract.

Cecilia then saw what Cassina had written: Ms. Smith, both my mother and I are ingrates. Thank you for treating us so kindly. I truly have nothing to repay you with. You must accept this contract. It's a token of my sincere gratitude.

“I really didn't see that coming,” Charlotte exclaimed in disbelief. “This contract must be worth over a billion, and she handed it over to us for free?”

When Cecilia tried to call Cassina, she found that the line was engaged.

She instructed Charlotte, “Lottie, hold off on this contract for now.”

“Alright.”

Charlotte understood and nodded in agreement.

Meanwhile, Cassina sent the contract over to Cassandra for review.

Outraged, Cassandra questioned, “Are you out of your mind? Why are you using the Jamieson family's money to subsidize Cecilia?”

“I didn't want to feel too guilty toward her. After all, I took her place, and she is such a wonderful person—” said Cassina.

Before Cassina could finish her sentence, Cassandra instantly became wary and cut her off, “What nonsense are you talking about? I don't want to hear such things ever again.”

“But that's the truth!” Cassina deliberately provoked her.

“Where are you right now? I'll come find you.” Cassandra was worried that the foolish Cassina might accidentally expose her.

Cassina had been waiting for her to say that and promptly sent her an address.

“I think we should be a bit nicer to Cecilia...” Cassina continued.

Cassandra quickly said, “Wait for me. I'll be right there.”

She was completely unguarded. Once she stepped outside, she simply instructed the driver to head toward the given location.

“Step on it.”
