When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 931

Chapter 931 A Reunion Is Due
Met with a closed door, Jessica edged closer to the entrance, straining her ears to catch any sounds from within.

However, due to the decent soundproofing and the fact that the two had moved their conversation to the balcony, she couldn't hear a thing.

“She really has no shame, locking herself in her room alone with another man like that,” Jessica muttered under her breath.

She hadn't noticed when exactly Elliot had approached her. Just as she was speaking ill of Cecilia, she suddenly felt a dampness on her leg.

Upon lowering her gaze, the woman noticed Elliot holding an unknown liquid in his hands, which he had completely spilled over her legs. The smell was particularly unpleasant.

“Ahh! What are you doing, Eli?”

“I got this from the housekeeper,” the boy answered innocently. “She said it's used as fertilizer for the flowers to help them grow more quickly and beautifully. Since your leg hasn't gotten any better, I thought I'd use it on you.”

Jessica's expression shifted instantly. With a shriek, she made a beeline for the bathroom.

Watching her frantic demeanor, Elliot couldn't help but clap his hands and yawn.

“What an annoying woman.”

Meanwhile, Cecilia and Sven stood on the balcony in the room, oblivious to what had happened to Jessica.

“I found out that Stella never actually left Tudela. She found Francis and has been staying with him in secret. Francis even went as far as buying her a house,” reported Sven.

Cecilia couldn't quite believe her ears.

“Isn't Francis engaged to Stella's best friend, Yvette?”

Sven nodded. “That's correct. Yvette doesn't know about this. If she were to find out, there's no way she'd marry Francis.”

Cecilia gazed at the rain. Some people just have no regard for friendships or familial ties.

“You should have quite a few pictures of the two of them together, right?” she asked.

“Yeah.”
