When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 463

Chapter 463 A Guest
Upon hearing the news, Martha didn't comment. Instead, she embraced Cecilia, gently patting her back.

Cecilia swallowed back her heartache. “So, she's been deceiving me and Dad all along.”

In the past, Cecilia felt guilty over her birth causing her mother to give up her career.

Her father often reminisced, “Your mother was stunningly beautiful on stage in her youth, the epitome of every man's dream bride. I feel like I held her back.”

Even until his death, Dad felt he had let that woman down. Yet, she has likely cheated on him right from the start.

Martha never expected Paula to be such a person. Indeed, there's no justice in this world.

“Ceci, such individuals aren't worth our sorrow.”

“Mmm-hmm.” Cecilia nodded. “I just can't believe she's my biological mother.”

Long ago, Cecilia had gone to the hospital for a DNA test—she was indeed Paula's daughter.

But why is it that despite both of us being her daughters, Paula is so biased? Why is she so harsh toward me?

There were some questions that, perhaps, Cecilia might never find the answers to in her lifetime.

Cecilia insisted on further investigating Paula's past, determined to reclaim everything that was rightfully hers from the Evans family.

Elliot had appeared at the doorway before anyone realized it. “Mommy, Granny Martha, what's wrong?”

Quickly, Cecilia extricated herself from Martha's embrace, hiding her vulnerable side.

“It's nothing. I was just having a chat with Granny Martha.”

“Oh.” Elliot feigned ignorance. “Then why don't you guys chat downstairs? We have guests.”

Guests? Who would come at this hour?

Cecilia questioned, “Who is it?”

“A person who was the spitting image of Uncle Nathaniel.”
