When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 561

Chapter 561 The Jealous Husband
“It's a long story.” Cecilia seemed somewhat reluctant to explain.

Thus, Eric found it inappropriate to continue prying.

“It's fine. If you don't want to talk about it, then don't.”

“I know.”

“Anyway, I'll be heading back first. Next time, remember to bring Jon and Eli along.”

Jonathan and Elliot were fond of Eric, and he too, was equally fond of the two children.

Cecilia nodded. “Alright.”

Watching Eric depart, Sven alighted from the car. He walked toward Cecilia, informing her that there was an update.

“If the information I received is correct, the person who kidnapped Jonathan is closely related to Cassandra.”

“Cassandra?”

Cecilia's pupils slightly constricted.

Although she had considered the possibility that it might be her, she thought their blood relations would still mean something.

Moreover, Cassandra's resentment toward her was merely due to the few encounters she had with Nicholas.

“Are you sure?” Cecilia asked.

“I found out that the person Jon drew is Scorpius Jiminez, a close confidant of Queenie, who has fled abroad,” Sven replied.

<i>Queenie...</i>

Cecilia recalled the threats Queenie had made a few days ago.

“I understand,” she said. “Let's keep this matter a secret for now.”

The Jamieson family indeed had the means to kidnap a child and prevent the Sinclair family from finding the latter.

At that moment, she was no match for Queenie. Even though she knew that Queenie was attempting to harm Jonathan and her, she was helpless about it.

“Mmm-hmm.” Sven understood her intentions as well.

Instead of laying everything out in the open, it would be better to keep it under wraps for now, not letting the enemy know.

Just like Sven, the Rainsworth and Sinclair families didn't take long to also trace the incident back to the Jamieson family.

However, the Jamieson and Rainsworth families were related by marriage, so they couldn't afford to fall out.

As long as the child was unharmed, they had no excuse to take action against the Jamieson family.

He continued eating, dampening Elliot's excitement.

“All you have to do is beg me, and I'll tell you.”

When Nathaniel ignored him, Elliot was somewhat annoyed. “If you don't want to, that's fine, but you have to show some sincerity.”

It seemed as though Nathaniel had figured out what buttons to push and deliberately chose to ignore him.

“I don't want to know anymore,” he said as he stood up. “I'm done eating.”

Elliot was taken aback. <i>Why are things turning out differently from what I imagined? </i>

He felt as though he could see through people, yet, the strangest thing was, he couldn't figure out what Nathaniel was thinking.

“Mr. Rainsworth, don't go. You know, my mom met a mega movie star today. He is incredibly handsome.”

Nathaniel paused in his tracks before turning around.

“What's his name?”

“If you want to know, you...”

“Besides begging you, I'll give it to you whatever you want.”
