Chapter 257 Bring Her Over For Dinner
It was Elena on the phone, her voice seething with anger. “I really didn’t expect Stella to behave so disgracefully. She’s even worse than Cecilia. At least Cecilia was with our family for three years without any incidents.”
For three years, Cecilia, apart from looking after members of the Rainsworth family, she spent most of her time alone at home, hardly knowing any men.
Nathaniel listened to his mother’s complaints from the other end of the line. After a long pause, he finally said, “Mom. I just found out that the person who saved you back then wasn’t Stella.”
Elena was taken aback.
“Who was it then?”
“Cecilia.”
Nathaniel shared with her all the information he had uncovered from his investigation.
At Rainsworth Manor, Elena wore a complex expression.
“Why didn’t Cecilia mention something so significant?”
“Perhaps she didn’t think much of it, not realizing from the start that Stella had taken credit for her actions.”
Elena fell silent.
She glanced at the photo of the socialite couple on the table, and thoughts of her past actions toward Cecilia filled her with a sense of guilt..
“Bring her home for dinner tomorrow,” she suggested.
“She’s gone.”
Despite the curt answer, it took all his strength to utter them.
“Gone? Where to?” Elena questioned, puzzled.
“I don’t know. If there’s nothing else, I’m hanging up.” Nathaniel didn’t want to discuss the matter of Cecilia’s departure any further.
After ending the call, he massaged his throbbing temples. His gaze fell upon the window where the snow was ceaselessly falling.
Initially, Elena intended to tell him about his younger brother, Nicholas. However, she felt that the discussion would have to be put on hold for the time being.
After not sleeping a wink the entire night, Nathaniel didn’t go to the office the following morning. Instead, he spent his time searching for Cecilia. Unfortunately, his efforts yielded no results.

Chapter 257 Bring Her Over For Dinner
Cecilia has run off once again. This time, it happened right under my nose! inner
“Resemblances are common.”
Zachary withdrew his gaze, refraining from further speculation.
“Now, can you tell me why you were messing with me from the start?”
Jonathan was tapping on the keyboard. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
This obstinate denial reminded him of Nathaniel’s silence.
Back then, when Nathaniel schemed against other companies, he was just as shameless.
Zachary was suddenly taken aback. Earlier, he had thought Jonathan resembled someone, but now it hit him–that person was none other than Nathaniel’s younger self.
The two of them had grown up together. Even now, Zachary could vaguely recall the insufferably arrogant air that Nathaniel exuded during their childhood.
Despite his thoughts, Zachary didn’t tell Nathaniel, fearing it might lead to another misunderstanding.
Instead, he called Vivian, asking her to come pick Jonathan up.
Vivian had thought that after a week, Nathaniel would have given up on tracking her. However, to her surprise, as soon as she arrived at the Seabay Villa, the person tailing her had informed Nathaniel.
