Chapter 234 Transferring The Assets Back To Her 

At Spring Forest Manor, Cecilia and Elliot walked together in a secluded area, careful to avoid the surveillance cameras that Elliot had warned her about. When they reached a quiet spot, Cecilia. crouched down to speak to him. 

“Eli, there’s something I need to tell you,” she began softly. 

“Okay.” 

“I’m planning to take you home in a few days. During this time, you need to get ready, okay?” she explained, gently ruffling his hair. 

Elliot nodded. “Got it.” 

Cecilia smiled, ruffling her son’s hair. 

“However, this has to be a secret between the two of us. You can’t tell anyone, including the housekeepers and Mr. Rainsworth. Let’s make a pact,” she said, raising her pinky finger. 

Elliot hooked his pinky around hers. “We’ll make a pinky promise. It’s a pact that can’t be broken for a hundred years.” 

Cecilia smiled warmly but felt a twinge of unease. She knew that Elliot was still young, but if she didn’t prepare him now, something unforeseen could happen on the day they were supposed to leave. 

Elliot was well are of Cecilia’s concerns. He leaned in closer, whispering, “Mommy, I know Uncle Nathaniel brought me here for money. I’m not naive.”

“Right, so when you’re here by yourself, Eli, you must take good care of yourself, okay?” she said, her voice tinged with both pride and concern. 

“Don’t worry, Mommy,” Elliot replied, lightly patting his chest with his hand, a gesture of 

reassurance. 

At that moment, Cecilia took out a miniature communication device and attached it to the inside of his clothing. “Sweetie, before I leave, I’ll use this to contact you. Can you make sure no one else discovers it?” 

“Sure, I promise to complete the mission,” Elliot said, his eyes curving into a smile. 

Before leaving, Cecilia embraced him tightly, reluctant to let go. 

From the second floor of the manor, Nathaniel watched the two figures–one large, one small- from a distance. His deep–set eyes were filled with a complex mix of emotions as he observed.

Mason entered the room and knocked on the door. “Mr. Rainsworth, the transfer agreements for all the businesses previously owned by the Smith family that you asked me to arrange have been handled by the legal department,” he reported.. 

Nathaniel nodded. “Understood.” 

“Should I inform Ms. Smith now?” Mason asked, but before he could receive an answer, 

Nathaniel turned around to look for Cecilia and Elliot. Suddenly, he realized they had vanished from his sight. 

Without responding to Mason, Nathaniel hastily descended the stairs and exited the building. His heart pounded with a mix of fear and relief when he saw Cecilia standing at the door with Elliot. by her side. 

They hadn’t run away. 

Only then did his tense heart begin to relax. 

Elliot, particularly well–behaved, called out, “Mr. Rainsworth.” 

“Hey.” 

Cecilia then sent Elliot back to the housekeeper’s care. The child hugged his mother tightly. before leaving. “Mommy, I will miss you. Until we meet again next time.” 

On the drive back, Cecilia and Nathaniel sat in silence, with Mason joining them. As they drove, 

Cecilia noticed they weren’t heading toward Rainsworth Manor. “Where are we going?” she asked, breaking the silence. 

“To the company,” Nathaniel replied curtly.
