Chapter 977 She Knows
Blood trickled from Jessica’s forehead as she slumped to the ground, her body limp.
*I… I don’t want to leave this place…
She didn’t want to leave.
If she left now, she would end up with nothing.
Cecilia never expected this woman to be so ruthless to herself.
However, those who were ruthless to themselves would be even more ruthless to others.
Sven was somewhat at a loss. “Mr. Rainsworth, Ms. Quill is injured.”
“Take her to the hospital,” Nathaniel commanded icily.
He didn’t want to cause any harm, which was why he had never let Jessica leave.
“Noted.”
A few bodyguards stepped forward, escorting Jessica out.
On their journey, Jessica continued to grumble, “I like you so much, I don’t want to leave Daltonia Villa…”
Once the sound had faded into the distance, tranquility finally returned to this place.
Cecilia found a place to sit down, turning to Nathaniel with a concerned look. “Are you okay? Do you need to go to the hospital?”
After all, Jessica had drugged him a little. If there was something wrong with the medicine, it could spell
trouble.
“No need. Dr. Lazlo has already checked. There’s no major issue,” Nathaniel replied earnestly.
Cecilia finally felt at ease. “That’s good. If you ever feel unwell, you’ve got to let me know.”
It had been a long time since Nathaniel had seen her show such concern for him. He reached out and pulled her into his embrace.
Upon seeing the two people embrace, everyone else gradually left the room.
In the living room, only Cecilia and Nathaniel were left.
Leaning close to her ear, Nathaniel voiced his slight displeasure. “Why did you leave me alone at home today?”

Cecilia choked up.
She had never even considered this.
“I trust you,” Cecilia said. “I don’t believe you would ever betray me.”

Cecilia paused for a moment before she continued to address Nathaniel solemnly. “Moreover, I had instructed the housekeeper at home to keep an eye on Jessica.”
She wasn’t that magnanimous. After all, Nathaniel was her husband. How could she possibly let other women get close to him without intervening?
Upon hearing her say that, Nathaniel became even more certain that she had long noticed Jessica’s interest in him.
So, she found out and didn’t even care. Would she act this way if she truly loved me?
“Did you enjoy yourself today?” Nathaniel subtly shifted the topic.
Cecilia was over the moon thinking about how she had secretly snatched a major project from Imminence Corporation that day. However, she didn’t feel it was the right time to share this with Nathaniel yet.
