“Cecilia, let me give you a piece of advice. If a man doesn’t love you, he never will. No matter if you pretend to be deaf and mute, or even feign amnesia, Nathaniel will never care for you.
Ee
Cecilia listened calmly, with not a hint of emotion in her eyes.
“Are you done?”
Stella looked at her with surprise.
Cecilia stood up, looking down at her. “If you’re so sure he loves you, then why would you come to me like a scorned woman?”
After saying her piece, she left with a cold, mocking laugh.
Watching her figure disappear, Stella was reminded of the once–proud heiress of the Smith family.
The thought of how she used to vie for Cecilia’s affections to secure the Smith family’s financial support made her feel sick.
The Smith family was now in ruins, so on what grounds did Cecilia still carry such arrogance?
Stella took a deep breath.
At that moment, her manager’s call came through. “Stella, there’s progress on the song you’ve been wanting.”
“Really?”
“But…” Her manager hesitated.
“Tell me about any difficulties you’re facing,” Stella said.
“Ms. Cecille once released a piece of music on a niche platform abroad without even applying for copyright. I’ve heard it, and I’m certain it could gain recognition. We could make a few minor changes…”
This was outright plagiarism.
Stella, of course, understood. Without hesitation, she said, “If there’s no copyright, it doesn’t. count as her work, you know.”
Once Stella had given her approval, the manager handled everything with even greater ease.

After her mother, Paula, and her younger brother, Magnus, had squandered the Smith family fortune, their home was mortgaged and was now occupied by others.
Since Cecilia decided to fake her death and disappear, she hadn’t kept up with any news. about Magnus and Paula.
I wonder how they’re doing now.
As she stepped out of the car and looked at the familiar old mansion from a distance, her eyes filled with a deep sense of melancholy.
She stood there for quite a while before finally getting into the car.
The day before Easter, Vivian invited Cecilia to come over so they could spend the holiday together the next morning.
When Cecilia arrived that evening, she found Jonathan teaching Vivian how to bake a cake.
“How did you get to know glutinous rice? You even know how to wrap it?” Vivian looked utterly puzzled.
Jonathan felt somewhat helpless, “You can easily find it on the video search.”
“Are all girls really this clueless?”
Jonathan was worrying about his future wife.
Cecilia was greeted with a heartwarming scene when she arrived.
“Mommy, come and have some cake,” he called out.
Vivian also called out to Cecilia. “The housekeeper has gone home for the holiday. It’s just me and Jonathan baking. You’re finally here.”
After she finished speaking, she lowered her voice. “No one from the Nathaniel faction followed us, right?”
“They’re outside.”
“What should we do then?”
“Don’t worry, at most they’ll tell Nathaniel that I came to see a friend.”
Vivian nodded.
“True enough.”

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....
Thank you for updating...
