When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 514

A Doll Wife's Farewell to Her Torturing Marriage
Chapter 514 They Were Selfish
Miranda pretended to stop him. “Felix, don't fight over it with your cousin.”

Felix didn't understand the subtleties of pretense or reading the room. All he knew was that what was his couldn't be taken by others.

He slid off the chair, dashed up to Elliot, and started tugging at him.

“Get down here!” he demanded.

Elliot and Jonathan looked strikingly similar.

Having been beaten by Jonathan in the past, he dared not lay a hand on Elliot. “Get down here, you unwanted child!” he shouted.

Every time the term “unwanted child” was mentioned, Cecilia would subconsciously clench her fist.

Miranda sneered to herself, choosing not to stop the child.

In response, Niel felt somewhat helpless. He said to the housekeeper, “Bring another chair to my side.”

“No, I want to sit on that chair!” Felix was a spoiled child, and he wanted the exact spot where Elliot was sitting.

Cecilia couldn't stand it any longer. “Eli, come sit over here with me.”

Elliot obediently got up from the chair. “Alright.”

Then, he gave Felix an affectionate look. “You're probably younger than me, right? I'll let you have it. After all, it's an older cousin's duty to look out for his younger cousin.”

This remark was a retort to Miranda.

In the world of the affluent, the status of the eldest grandchild outweighed the younger ones.

Miranda's expression changed instantly. “Eli, you must be mistaken. Felix is older than you. He's the elder cousin.”

“Is he?” Elliot asked, a look of confusion on his face. “Then why is he acting so childish? It's just a chair, isn't it?”

Miranda choked on her words, while Niel burst into hearty laughter.

“Eli, you're right. It's just a chair, nothing to fuss over. Clearly, you're older than Felix. Come, sit here with me. No need to go over to Mommy.”

After hearing this, Elliot looked toward Cecilia. Seeing Cecilia nod, he then took a seat on the other side of Niel.
