Chapter 186 I Will Not Forgive Him
+5 Pearls
Gazing at the retreating figures, one big and one small, Elena’s face was etched with a sense of loss.
At that time, the secretary on one side received a message. It was the information that Elena had previously asked to be investigated–what Nathaniel had been up to recently.
She immediately informed Elena, “Someone close to Mason mentioned that Mr. Rainsworth has been in Tudela with a child for over half a month now.”
After returning home, Jonathan found himself mulling over the idea that no matter where he was in the future, he needed to be cautious and attentive.
Elliot had already been discovered by Nathaniel. Jonathan couldn’t afford to be found by Nathaniel too.
He was swiftly operating his computer in his room. Before long, he had managed to connect to Elliot’s communication line.
Just yesterday, he had secretly breached the firewall of Spring Forest Manor, establishing contact with Elliot.
Initially, Nathaniel had only taken away Elliot’s digital watch, oblivious to the fact that he was secretly clutching a miniature communication device.
At night, Elliot was lying on the hospital bed, his gaze falling on a device no bigger than a button that emitted a faint glow. He quickly placed it by his ear. “Jon.”
“Are you doing okay?” Jonathan asked.
“I’m all right. Nathaniel arranged for many people to take care of me. Anything I wanted each day, they would provide.”
Elliot gazed out into the pitch–black night.
If it hadn’t been for his illness, Cecilia wouldn’t have had to return here, and they could have. continued living their peaceful family life together.
“That’s good then.” Jonathan felt relieved.
If Elliot was not living well, he would undoubtedly bring him back, regardless of the cost.
Then again, he was too young, and his abilities were limited. He couldn’t protect his mother, nor could he guarantee the safety of his younger brother.
“Jon, there’s something I want to ask you.”
“What’s the matter?”
“Is Nathaniel really that bad?”

The first time Elliot had such a thought was when he was messing with Nathaniel. Despite his antics, Nathaniel never retaliated or even got angry.
“Why would you ask such a question? Isn’t a man who abandons his wife and child bad enough?” Jonathan felt that his younger brother was overly sentimental and far too kind–hearted.
Elliot, however, didn’t see it that way. “Jon,” he said, “I think he’s into Mommy.”
Upon hearing these words, Jonathan was taken aback.
Following that, Elliot said, “Do you know I’ve met Mommy? It was on her birthday when Nathaniel personally brought her over. I felt that the way he looked at Mom wasn’t with dislike. On the contrary, it seemed like he was holding something back…”
Due to his illness, Elliot had been more sensitive and thoughtful than other children since his early years.
He would discern others based on their subtle actions.
“Is that so?” Jonathan couldn’t believe it.
Throughout his upbringing, although his mother never spoke ill of Nathaniel, he often found her unable to sleep at night. She would be alone, shedding tears. On a few occasions, she even called out Nathaniel’s name.
He had also looked into the history between Cecilia and Nathaniel.
Without exception, there wasn’t a single incident that could prove Nathaniel’s affection for Mommy.
Elliot had even shared with Jonathan about his pranks on Nathaniel.
After hearing everything, Jonathan fell into deep thought.
In truth, if Nathaniel truly loved Cecilia, then he was willing to let her be with him.
However, he feared that wasn’t the case.
“It’s getting late, you should get some rest. This call is really risky. If this goes on any longer, I would be caught.”
“Okay, then.”

YAY!!Finally "she's" going down! Thank you for the update....
I have read some books that the protagonist would have put the world upside down and never be so restless like Nathaniel....
Good job!!! Nathaniel found her!!! Let’s make this família been together!!!...
I’m afraid Nathaniel is weaker than I thought. I can’t believe he lost the opportunity to save Cecilia....
I’m excited to know what is Nathaniel going to do with Cassandra and Stella at this time. Cassandra is not a Rainworth anymore. It’s time to pay the price. Why nobody had warned Nathaniel yet? It’s time to gain Cecilia’s heart forever. I wish Quennie and Nathaniel join their forces to save her and this family. Hopefully, it becomes a great end....
