When Her Death Couldn't Break Him novel Chapter 198

Chapter 198 Accept It Without Regret 

At Daltonia Villa, just as Cecilia finished her call with Vivian, Calvin’s call came through. 

She answered promptly, and Calvin said, “I arranged for Sean to meet with Stella again today.” Cecilia’s heart skipped a beat. Is Stella really hurt by Sean? 

“Do you know?” Calvin continued. “That woman wanted him dead. If it weren’t for my men, he would have nearly lost his life.” 

Calvin explained that he had been orchestrating events to reveal Stella’s true nature to Sean. However, Sean, stubbornly refusing to believe the truth, even went so far as to find Stella’s house. Initially, Stella pretended to offer comfort, but later, she shockingly slipped him a sleeping pill. Once he was unconscious, she planned to stage an accidental death by turning on the gas. Fortunately, Calvin’s men intervened in time and rescued Sean, forcibly removing Stella before her plan could succeed. 

Stella, in a state of panic, began to harm herself and then played the victim, claiming that an obsessed fan had broken into her home and attacked her. 

Cecilia was shocked and horrified to hear that. I can’t believe how cruel Stella is! 

Her suspicions were confirmed–this entire situation was nothing more than a deceitful act orchestrated by Stella herself. 

Calvin grew concerned when Cecilia didn’t immediately respond. “Cecilia, are you all right?” 

“I’m fine,” Cecilia replied, snapping back to reality. “I just didn’t expect her to be so ruthless.” 

“Given that she’s come this far as an orphan, she clearly has her share of tricks,” Calvin said, his gaze darkening with an inscrutable look. “You need to be cautious with someone like her.” 

He paused for a moment before cautiously asking, “Have you sorted out the matter of your pregnancy?” 

Cecilia responded honestly, “Yes, it’s taken care of.” 

“Good. I’ll retrieve Elliot as soon as possible, and then we’ll head back.” 

Cecilia felt a pang of worry. She had visited the place where Elliot was kept and knew the security there was extremely tight, a far cry from the hospital’s. It would be a challenging task to bring 

him out. 

“Could we wait a few more days? I’ll try to find a way to persuade Nathaniel to release Eli willingly.” 

Cecilia was concerned that Calvin might get hurt or risk offending Nathaniel because of her. She felt deeply indebted to Calvin.

+5 Pearls 

Standing on the balcony, Calvin stared into the pitch–black night, his throat tightening. In recent days, he had heard from Seven that Cecilia and Nathaniel had been inseparable and seemed very close. Although he understood Cecilia’s intention to conceive, he was, after all, only human. It was painful to see the woman he cared for so deeply with another man. 

“All right,” Calvin said, ultimately choosing to respect Cecilia’s decision. 

After ending the call, he to look at Sean, who had just awoken on the hospital bed. Sean’s eyes. were hollow as he murmured, “I gave up a fiancée who loved me for eight years, invested all my money, and even harmed others–all for her–and she wanted me dead!” 

Calvin stepped forward, his expression cold. “So now you regret it?” 

Sean looked at Calvin, his eyes filled with bitterness. “Of course! I wish I could have killed her right then and there!”
