When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 410

Chapter 410 Swindled Out Of It
Sven continued to relay all the findings from his investigation to Cecilia. The most puzzling thing to him was the identity of the person who had been helping him with the investigation.

“If I uncover anything new, I'll let you know immediately,” Sven promised.

“Thank you,” Cecilia responded, her mood heavy with the weight of the revelations.

What had once been mere suspicions were now turning out to be true. Her younger brother had been foolish, benefiting others while sacrificing the family's wealth.

After Nathaniel observed her conversation, he asked, “What's wrong?”

Cecilia shared with him everything Sven had just told her. For now, she decided to treat Nathaniel as a confidant.

“So, what's your plan?” Nathaniel inquired, having already suspected something was amiss for some time, though he hadn't paid much attention to it before.

“I'm going to reclaim what rightfully belongs to the Smith family,” Cecilia declared with determination. If it had been a case of Magnus simply squandering the family fortune, that would have been different. But clearly, he had been swindled out of it.

No wonder Dad left a will as a precaution. He must have known about Paula's intentions from the start. It's unfortunate that I was so naive back then, completely devoted to Nathaniel and oblivious to the real reasons behind our family's downfall.

“That's a good plan,” Nathaniel agreed, his mind already made up to help Cecilia in whatever way he could.

Cecilia didn't expect him to offer assistance, though. Instead, she said, “You should talk to your mother soon. Ask her to repay the money she borrowed before.”

With that, she gently pulled away from Nathaniel's embrace and got up. “I'm going to rest now.”

Nathaniel felt an emptiness in his heart as he watched her leave, realizing too late that he should have held onto her longer. Once she was gone, Nathaniel picked up his phone. There was a message from Mason.

It said that Paula's past had been uncovered, and this information was shared with Sven.

Nathaniel typed a quick response: Got it. Keep a discreet eye on Evans Group.

Mason, lying in bed, read the new task from his boss. He was puzzled. Why are we targeting Evans Group again?
