When Her Death Couldn't Break Him novel Chapter 122

Chapter 122 Drop The Lawsuit 

“You can head back now. I’ll be attending the company’s anniversary celebration tonight,” Nathaniel spoke impatiently. 

“All right.” After leaving breakfast behind, Stella cast a smug glance at Cecilia before departing. 

When Nathaniel turned around, sure enough, Cecilia was standing right behind him. For some reason, he felt a twinge of guilt. “When did you wake up?” 

Cecilia’s expression was calm. “When Stella proposed to you. Congratulations to both of you.” 

Nathaniel’s heart tightened. The room felt like it froze for a few seconds. He looked at her intently with his dark eyes. “If you have any objections, say them now.” 

All she had to do was tell him not to marry Stella, and he would agree. But Cecilia just shook her head and repeated, “Congratulations to both of you. I’ll cooperate on the divorce proceedings. But on one condition–you give Elliot back to me.” 

Nathaniel’s heart sank. He realized that Cecilia didn’t care about him anymore. She wasn’t bothered about him being with someone else or even marrying another woman. 

Nathaniel felt deeply irritated, though he couldn’t quite understand why. He coughed heavily and. tossed the breakfast Stella had brought him straight into the trash. 

“Order whatever you want to eat,” he said. After that, he walked past Cecilia and headed to the study. 

Cecilia realized how naive he was. Did he really think I’d eat what Stella sent over? 

After fixing herself some breakfast in the kitchen, she finished eating and sent a quick text to Nathaniel before heading out the door: I’m heading to the office. 

Nathaniel had been waiting in his study, hoping Cecilia would say something tender, but all he got was a short message from her. After reading it, his face was as dark as a storm cloud. 

When he walked downstairs, he noticed Cecilia had already left early. He went into the kitchen, but it was empty–she hadn’t made breakfast for him. Nathaniel felt a deep ache in his stomach and an even worse one in his head. He asked the driver to bring some breakfast over. 

At the office, Cecilia turned on her phone and saw that she’d missed a call from a strange number on her overseas card last night. 

The call had come from Tudela. She didn’t call back. Instead, she asked someone to look up the owner of the phone number. It didn’t take long to find out it was Stella. 

The previous day, the news about Stella’s plagiarism scandal was still blowing up online, so it made sense that she’d be trying to reach Cecilia now.

Sure enough, the phone rang before long. Cecilia used a foreign IP address and even altered her voice before answering. 

“Hello.” 

“Is this Ms. Cecille? I’m Stella. I want to talk to you about the song, Ray of Light in the Dark. This was a mistake by one of my employees, who unknowingly included your work. Can we discuss how to resolve this so you might consider dropping the lawsuit?” Stella’s tone was exceptionally polite. If she knew Cecille was actually Cecilia, she might not be so pleasant.
