Chapter 712 An Irresponsible Mother
Cecilia found it hard to refuse any longer, deciding to stay there for the time being. It would also make it easier to monitor Calvin's health condition.
In the evening, the personal doctor came over to examine Calvin's health and change his medication.
Cecilia was sitting off to the side, making a call to Elliot. As the video call connected, Elliot's adorably chubby face filled the screen. “Mommy, why are you calling me?” he asked.
Since Elena was still present, Elliot didn't ask her if she had seen Calvin.
“There's nothing in particular. I just wanted to see how you were doing—”
Before she could finish her sentence, Cecilia suddenly heard a familiar voice from the other end. “Sweetie, who's on the phone with you?”
Just as Elliot was about to switch off his phone, Elena had already walked over and noticed Cecilia.
In the presence of her grandson, Elena didn't dare to scold Cecilia for leaving Elliot behind. Instead, she said kindly to her, “Oh, it's you, Ceci. Where have you been? Why haven't you returned at this hour?”
Cecilia didn't want to throw a wrench in the works, so she lied by saying, “There's been a minor issue with my private company. I came back to check on it.”
When she returned to Erihal this time, she genuinely wanted to see how the company had been performing.
Upon hearing such a response, Elena scoffed inwardly. <i>Cecilia's company, despite all its grand talk, is essentially nothing more than a small workspace akin to a studio. It's truly irresponsible to leave Elliot alone at home for the sake of a small company.</i>
Despite her thoughts, Elena said, “Once you're done with your tasks, hurry back. Don't wear yourself out. You're pregnant. If you're short on cash, don't hesitate to ask me for help.”
Cecilia understood that she was speaking this way, all out of consideration for her grandson, and she cooperated by responding accordingly.
Elena wasn't just all talk. After hanging up the phone, Cecilia was stunned to find that a whopping fifty million had been deposited into her account.
A text message swiftly followed. It was from Elena, and it read: <i>You're carrying the Rainsworth family's child and are still the lady of the Rainsworth family. If you need anything, just let me know. Don't be hard on yourself.</i>
Cecilia was somewhat perplexed. <i>How on earth am I being hard on myself? </i>
Cecilia then replied:<i> Thank you. I'll save the money for Eli and Jon in the future.</i>
Elena didn't respond any further, and Cecilia also turned off her phone.

The readers' comments on the novel: When Her Death Couldn't Break Him
Thank you 😊 for the work...
Save us the distress from waiting or we are opting for others...
Hi, good morning Could you please send more chapters? To much books reading and I always forgot the story when it comes. All characters have the same name ( Cecilia, Nathaniel, Madaline, Fabian… )and lots of the names are similar in the same story, so I got confused when I don’t have all story already written. If at least you can send 10 chapters a day…. This story is as good as Mission to Remarry I can’t wait for finish it. But let’s have a great finish and a final chapter with one year of deepest love development. Thank you! Please,please, please!!!!...
What's going on? Why so few chapters?...
This chapter is completely useless!...
Why all chapters are not until the end? The new ones are never the continuation of the previous one. Also, Could you please do not use the "swnovel.net" as a water mark on the paragraphs? I use a listening device and those paragraphs are not readable....
More chapters, please 🙏...
What's going on? Is not Cassandra married? What is she doing in her mother's House?...
Waiting for more chapters...
Thank you for the update and anticipate more. Love Elliot in this novel the most <3...
