When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 1603

Chapter 1603 The Persuasive Brooklyn
“Boss, who would have thought that the one who defended Cassandra online and slandered you was your own aunt,” Charlotte exclaimed, before adding, “but she didn't know who you were at that time, so it was all a misunderstanding.”

As she was speaking, Brooklyn had already rushed over in her high heels.

“Ceci.”

Brooklyn appeared radiant, seemingly defying her age. Despite being in her forties, she looked as if she was only in her thirties.

She tried to embrace Cecilia once again, but this time, Cecilia was ready and managed to evade her.

Brooklyn couldn't help but feel disappointed. “Ceci, why are you being so petty? Can't you let me hold you for a bit?” she grumbled in a cute tone.

Charlotte couldn't believe that such a big shot was behaving that way in front of Cecilia.

“Mdm. Brooklyn, please don't be like that,” Cecilia pleaded awkwardly.

“Could you call me Aunt Brooklyn instead? Madam sounds old and formal,” Brooklyn requested, feigning unhappiness.

Cecilia felt somewhat helpless and had no choice but to give in. “Aunt Brooklyn, what brings you here?”

Addressing Brooklyn as “aunt” was easier than calling Queenie “mom.”

Brooklyn finally felt a little better. “I just came to see you and wanted to hang out with you. I came to Tudela alone, so I have no one to keep me company.”

As she spoke, her gaze shifted toward Charlotte who was beside her.

“What's this young lady's name? She's quite adorable. Is she your friend?”

When Charlotte found herself being praised as a beautiful young woman, she couldn't be any more pleased.

Cecilia replied, “Her name is Charlotte Talbot. She's a friend and former colleague of mine.”

“Oh, Charlotte, such an adorable name,” Brooklyn said, making herself at home. She took Charlotte's hand, “Your palm reading suggests a life of wealth and prosperity. But...”

Brooklyn paused before saying, “Your love line signifies trouble ahead.”

My love line shows trouble ahead?
