When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 1855

Chapter 1855 Make A Choice
With that, Zeke shot Camila a meaningful glance, saying, “Quickly apologize to Meredith, and make it clear to her that there's nothing going on between us.”

Although Camila was reluctant, she had to apologize for the sake of her future wealth and Conrad.

“Ms. Seiler, I'm sorry. I didn't mean for things to happen as they did before. Zeke and I are no longer involved in any way. Could you please consider reconciling with Zeke? You've always been the one in his heart.”

Upon hearing those words from Camila, Meredith nearly spat out a mouthful of water. Do these two really take me for a fool?

“Oh... It's no big deal, but how about Conrad?” Meredith decided to seize this opportunity to get back at the two.

Camila's expression shifted. “That's all in the past now.”

Zeke chimed in, “Exactly! Meredith, don't you also like Conrad? In the future, you'll be Conrad's mother. I'll make sure Conrad treats you with utmost respect and filial piety.”

Filial piety... Meredith thought back to when she felt the same way. She believed that the kindness of nurturing would be repaid in the future. However, Conrad, that ingrate, not only lacked gratitude, but also listened to his biological mother, adding something to my meals, which resulted in my permanent infertility. Having a son like that is worse than not having one at all.

“I'm sorry, but I can't accept another person's child. How could I possibly be barren if it weren't for them?” Meredith paused, looking at Zeke. “If you want to get back together with me, fine. However, you have to send her and her child away.”

Camila's face changed drastically when she heard that. “Ms. Seiler, don't be unreasonable. I've already apologized to you. Conrad is still a child. He's innocent.”

Meredith was so amused by her words that she almost burst into laughter.

“You sure have a way with words, even when you're apologizing.” Meredith turned to look at Zeke again before saying, “Zeke, I'm giving you this chance. It's your call, them or me.”

To put it precisely, he had to choose between his company and the mother-and-son duo.

Zeke's face was filled with conflict.

In a rush, Camila pleaded, “Zeke, Conrad is your son. You mustn't abandon Conrad and me.”
