When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 642

Chapter 642 Plan In Action
Moana immediately walked over. “Mr. Nathaniel, Mrs. Rainsworth is dining in the kitchen. If you have any instructions, just let me know.”

“Kitchen?” Nathaniel sounded perplexed. “Why would she be eating in the kitchen? Ask her to come here.”

Is she hiding in the kitchen just so she won't have to eat these carrots? Does she have her own stash of food?

“Mr. Nathaniel, according to our custom, women don't dine at the same table as the men of the house,” Moana iterated.

Nathaniel was taken aback.

Elliot was just as bewildered. What era was this woman even in?

Moana served Nathaniel more food. “Don't worry, Mr. Nathaniel. I've prepared plenty of dishes for Mrs. Rainsworth.”

“Then what about all the food here—”

“I had them prepared, too,” Moana interjected before Nathaniel could finish.

In an instant, the man's expression turned even more unsightly.

However, he didn't want to argue with someone nearing fifty and changed the subject. “Call Cecilia over. Tell her to eat here.”

Truth be told, he had never really expected Cecilia to heed Moana's advice.

“I wouldn't do that.”

Moana refused to get Cecilia.

Unbothered with this old witch in front of him, Elliot got up from his chair and headed to the kitchen.

Upon entering, he saw Cecilia sitting alone on a small stool in the kitchen, eating a bowl of plain white rice.

On the small table before her was an array of thinly sliced pieces of white meat.

The meat wasn't fried, but rather steamed, and apart from salt, no other seasoning was added.

Moana had stated that this was nutritious for pregnant women.

Cecilia took just a few bites of the food and found herself unable to continue eating.

Elliot watched her, his eyes instantly filled with heartache.

“Mommy.”

Cecilia looked up at him. “Elliot? What brings you here? You should go have something to eat.”
