When Her Death Couldn't Break Him novel Chapter 676

Chapter 676 Jewelry For Cecilia
Elena was at her wit's end. How could I possibly prove that?

Noticing her silence, Elliot quickly put on an act, getting into character right away. His eyes welled with tears. “Hmph! You say you like Mommy, but you can't even prove it.”

Jonathan joined in, pressing further, “You claim to think of Mommy as your own daughter, but have you ever cooked for her? Did you take care of her when she was sick, or comfort her when she was vulnerable? Have you ever put up with her little temper tantrums?”

Elena hadn't expected her two grandsons to be so eloquent. They left her at a loss for words.

She had never been kind to Cecilia, let alone cook for her or take care of her.

Noting Elena's inability to answer their questions, Jonathan reassured Elliot, “Don't cry, Eli. Let's get out of the car. Grandma clearly doesn't welcome us. Otherwise, why would she have been so cold to Mommy today?”

Elena immediately grabbed hold of the two little ones. “Eli, Jon, you want proof, don't you? Once we go back, I'll show you that I genuinely like your mommy.”

The two children finally relented and agreed to join her for a day of fun at the amusement park.

In the evening, after returning from the amusement park, the two youngsters eagerly waited to see Elena show Cecilia affection and kindness.

During the meal, Elena presented Cecilia with a set of exquisite Trapiche emerald jewelry, saying, “Here's a gift from me.”

Cecilia was taken aback. After all these years of marriage to Nathaniel, it was the first time Elena had ever given her a gift.

“No, thanks. I don't wear jewelry.” Cecilia, accustomed to being overlooked, rejected the gesture.

In the presence of her two grandsons, Elena spoke kindly. “Just keep it. This jewelry set was part of my dowry when I got married. I want you to have it.”

Cecilia wasn't used to her amicable attitude. Before she could refuse again, Nathaniel accepted it on her behalf. “Just keep it.”

Elliot mischievously said, “That's right, Mom. Keep it and pass it on to my future wife.”

Jonathan furrowed his brows. “What about my future wife?”
