When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 2249

On the other end, Mr. Chandler let out a sigh and went on. "You know what Robert is like. He's not the kind of man who'll take a loss. But now he suddenly wants to buy my land at a high price. I keep feeling like there's something going on here."

Mr. Chandler knew Nathaniel didn't get along with his uncle, so he didn't hold anything back.

"Mm. And then?"

"I definitely don't want to let him have it cheap," Mr. Chandler said, though his words turned hesitant. "But your father came to see me again today, and I really didn't know what else to do. I could only turn him away at the door."

He kept his tone especially polite with Nathaniel.

Nathaniel knew why. His father had had a small conflict with Mr. Chandler before, and that was why Mr. Chandler wouldn't see him.

"Mr. Chandler, it's your land. Whether you sell it or not is your decision. You don't need to think so much about it. If you want to sell, then sell."

"But..."

"As for my dad, you don't need to worry about him."

"Good. That's good." Mr. Chandler finally let out the breath he'd been holding.

He had still been worried that Wren might run to Nathaniel and complain.

Nathaniel looked at the phone for a moment, then thought it over and dialed another number. "I'll send you the address of a piece of land in a minute. Go look into it. Find out exactly what's going on with that plot. I want it clear within one day, no matter what."

The person on the other end answered at once. "Yes."

Only then did Nathaniel put the phone down.

Cecilia saw how severe his expression had turned and asked, "What happened? Did Dad call you again about the kids?"

"No."

Nathaniel told Cecilia everything from start to finish.

After hearing it, Cecilia could tell this wasn't simple either.

"What, was there gold buried in that land or something?" Cecilia said.

"Not gold," Nathaniel said. "But there's definitely some way to make money off it."

Cecilia nodded.

That was exactly it.

Robert had always been sharp.

He had made plenty of dirty money before.

Elena had even kept suspecting he'd forged the will, but there had never been any proof.
