When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 1819


Chapter 1819 Become His Son Instead
Jonathan didn't even need to ask—he already knew what good news George was referring to. “Great-grandpa, are you trying to tell me I'm going to have a little brother or sister?”

George looked completely taken aback. “Oh dear, Jon, how did you figure that out?” He had only heard about it today from Vivian and Zachary. The two of them had deliberately kept it a secret from him, saying they wanted to surprise him.

“I'm just guessing,” Jonathan replied, choosing not to reveal the truth. If he admitted he had known all along, the old man would certainly scold him for keeping secrets.

George didn't think much of it and simply laughed. “Young minds are sharp these days. You really are clever, Jon. Ms. Kennedy is pregnant—she's already two months along.”

“Congratulations, Great-grandpa! You'll finally get to hold your great-grandchild,” Jonathan said sincerely.

George let out a hearty laugh. “No matter what, you're still my great-grandchild. You all mean the same to me.”

Jonathan nodded. He knew George would never treat him differently just because he had a biological great-grandchild now.

“When will you be coming back? I miss you,” George asked again.

Jonathan could tell that George truly did miss him. Having a child around made the house more lively, and Jonathan had always been the bright spark in the family. Sometimes, George treated him like a great-grandson, and other times, more like a friend.

“I guess I'll come back tomorrow,” Jonathan decided.

He was also missing George. After all, compared to him, his younger brother Elliot was still far too naïve.

Jonathan spent a lot of time with George—not just playing chess but also learning about business. He had picked up many valuable strategies that would definitely help him in the future.

“All right, all right! I'll come pick you up tomorrow.”

After a brief struggle, Nathaniel finally let him go. “All right, all right! I get it! I won't blabber anymore, Dad, you're going to ruin my clothes,” Elliot grumbled.

The house was filled with laughter and warmth. That evening, when Cecilia and the others returned home, they were greeted by this heartwarming scene.

Jonathan told her that after school tomorrow, he would be heading to George's house. Cecilia reminded him, “Ms. Kennedy is pregnant now, so make sure you behave yourself and don't give her any trouble, all right?”

Jonathan sighed softly. “Mommy, do you really think I'm the kind of kid who causes trouble?”

Cecilia hesitated—he had a point. Compared to Jonathan, Vivian seemed more like a child.

An idea came to her, and she quickly added, “Jonathan, just keep an eye on Ms. Kennedy, okay? Make sure she doesn't move around too much. She's pregnant now and needs to be careful for the baby's sake.”
