When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 1955

Chapter 1955 Zero Regrets
Cecilia was speechless.

How can I answer that?

Whichever side she chose, she'd offend someone. Agreeing would upset her father-in-law. Disagreeing would offend her mother-in-law.

She was completely caught in the middle.

Elena turned to her and said, “Ceci, despite the divorce, I'll still take care of the grandkids. Don't worry, we're still a family.”

Cecilia didn't know what to say. Thankfully, Nathaniel wrapped an arm around her and said, “Mom, Dad, we're your kids. We can't interfere in your marriage. Whatever you decide, we'll respect it.”

Wren's expression shifted. He made a face at Nathaniel, but Nathaniel acted like he didn't see it.

With no choice, Wren turned to his younger son. “Nicholas, what do you think?”

Lately, Nicholas hadn't been in the best state of mind. He'd tried and failed to beat Nathaniel, leaving him full of frustration.

“I know it hasn't been easy for either of you. If there's a chance to avoid divorce, then maybe don't go through with it,” Nicholas said.

He turned to Elena. “Mom, if word gets out that you and Dad divorced, it'll damage our family's image.”

Elena froze. She had assumed her son would support her, but now it seemed Nicholas didn't want the divorce either.

“Nicholas, you know exactly how much I've endured all these years.”

Nicholas' eyes flickered with a touch of coldness before returning to calm. “Mom, do you really believe your life will improve after the divorce? Our family isn't an ordinary one. The Rainsworths don't need you to be some perfect wife or mother. If you divorce Dad, where will you go? Back home? Would your brothers welcome you back?”

He sounded like he was considering her feelings, but every word was meant to discourage her from going through with it.
