When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 650

Chapter 650 The Election Day
Priscilla paused for a moment, clearly feeling a bit guilty when she saw Cecilia walking towards her.

“You're here early, Ms. Cecilia.”

“Yeah. Aren't we electing the president of the parents' association today? Naturally, I had to come early. You did mention that you'd vote for me.”

“Of course.” Priscilla was all smiles.

Since the votes are anonymous, there's nothing for me to worry.

Many mothers had already gathered at the school's conference room, all engrossed in lively conversation.

When they saw Cecilia enter, they awkwardly averted their gaze, pretending not to have noticed her.

Cecilia didn't really care.

After all, the real show was about to start soon.

What she hadn't expected was that Helen, who had given her the parking card initially, came over and struck up a conversation with her. “You're here, Ms. Cecilia.”

“Yeah,” responded Cecilia with a polite smile.

As she didn't know if Helen was planning the same thing as Priscilla, Cecilia refrained from being too friendly.

Helen, however, pulled her aside and whispered, “Ms. Cecilia, perhaps you shouldn't run to be the president of the parents' association today.”

Cecilia didn't understand why Helen was reminding her.

“Why?”

Gathering her courage, Helen explained, “I arrived a bit early, so I overheard some of the other mothers chatting. They all mentioned that they will be voting for Miranda. I have the feeling that they are in cahoots. They're planning to turn against you. If you decide to continue running for president, I'm afraid...”

Helen didn't finish her sentence.

“Are you worried that I'll be embarrassed if no one elects me?” asked Cecilia.

Helen nodded.
