“Someone is trying to tarnish my reputation,” Jessica explained to Cecilia and Lucille.
The two of them had no interest in hearing her ramble on about such things.
Cecilia continued switching channels, munching on fruit while watching a TV series with Lucille.
Jessica’s presence there seemed out of place. She was both frustrated and unwilling to accept the situation.
At that moment, her cell phone began to ring.
When Jessica picked up her phone, she was surprised to see that Fabian was calling.
She picked up the phone and was met with a barrage of reprimands on the other end. “Jessica Quill, you’re supposed to take care of Nathaniel. What were you doing at Sinclair Manor? You’re a disgrace to the family.”
Standing up, Jessica left the room before finally responding, “Grandpa, these are all just rumors.”
“Rumors don’t just appear out of nowhere. It must be your inability to handle the situation,” Fabian stated coldly.
Jessica lowered her head. “I’m sorry, Grandpa.”
He then abruptly changed the subject. “How are things with Nathaniel?”
The relationship between the Quill and Rainsworth families had been growing increasingly distant. With the vast difference in their respective power and influence, Fabian knew that if the younger generation didn’t make an effort to align themselves with the Rainsworth family, the Quills would struggle to maintain their status and influence.
Jessica didn’t dare to tell the truth. “We need to handle this carefully; after all, Cecilia is still carrying his child.”
Fabian understood that as well. “Jessica, I’m not trying to make things difficult for you, but this is the perfect opportunity. With Cecilia being pregnant, you can finally get close to Nathaniel.”
Nicholas was already engaged to Cassandra, so the Quills‘ only hope lay with Nathaniel.
Fabian believed that Nathaniel’s blindness and his reduced role as the head of the Rainsworth family would make it easier for Jessica to win him over.
After all, Jessica possessed both beauty and the ability to charm men.
“All right, Grandpa. You can rest assured that even if you hadn’t reminded me, I would have done my best to handle this matter.”
“Okay.” Only then did Fabian hang up the phone.
Cecilia and Lucille noticed Jessica start to pack her bag after receiving a call.
Jessica had led a tragic life. She lost her parents in a car accident at a young age and was constantly bullied by her cousins.

Chapter 868 Jessica Finally Left
However, her misfortune didn’t justify trying to snatch someone else’s husband.
Finished
It wasn’t a valid excuse for her to behave so maliciously. If she wanted to act out, she should seek revenge against those who had wronged her, not those who had never provoked her. Yet, Jessica didn’t seem to understand this logic.
She pretended to pack/her bags, putting on a pitiful act as she said to Cecilia, “Cecilia, I’m leaving now. Please take care of yourself.”
“Goodbye,” Cecilia responded nonchalantly.
Jessica dragged her suitcase behind her and left.
Elliot, who was in his nursery, was surprised that Jessica would leave just because of a news report.
Somehow, Elliot sensed there was more to Jessica’s departure than met the eye.
He was certain she would eventually return.

Update new chapters please...
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...
