Chapter 751 Replace Nathaniel

Nathaniel’s narrowed eyes remained closed. “Come in.”

Mason walked in, asking, “I hope I’m not intruding. It’s almost five o’clock. You promised to pick up Elliot from school.”

“Elliot?” Nathaniel questioned, puzzled. “Who?”

Mason froze. Did Mr. Rainsworth forget about his son again?

“Mr. Rainsworth, may I ask you what year is it now?” he asked tentatively.

Nathaniel frowned slightly. “Mason, have you been too idle lately? Have you prepared the tickets to Daprein? We still have to discuss the matter of the primary chip.”

He opened his eyes, ready to rise, only to replace utter darkness before him. “Why can’t I see anything?”

The microchip? This matter goes way back to the first year of Mr. Rainsworth’s marriage to Mrs. Rainsworth! D*mn it

That was the toughest period for Rainsworth Group and also a time when Nathaniel was subjected to relentless ridicule..

“Mr. Rainsworth, there’s something I need to tell you.”

“Speak.”

Mason pulled out a voice recorder, which wasn’t used to record Nathaniel, but rather, held recordings of his own voice explaining in detail to Nathaniel what had happened each time he lost his memory.

Roughly an hour later, when Nathaniel returned to Daltonia Villa, Elliot immediately clung to his leg. “Daddy, you promised to pick me up today. How could you break your promise?”

Nathaniel’s gaze darkened, and he couldn’t help lifting Elliot, tossing him aside. “Go play somewhere else.”

Elliot was puzzled, turning to look at Mason.

Mason gave him a meaningful look that explained everything.

Elliot was surprised to know how severe his father’s illness was, acting up roughly every two days.

He went upstairs to inform Cecilia and suggested, “Mommy, maybe we should take this opportunity to leave.”

Cecilia was puzzled. I thought he adored Nathaniel; he wouldn’t shut up about him.

“Why should we leave?” she asked.

Chapter 751 Replace Nathaniel

“I think Daddy’s getting worse. Maybe we should look for a new one,” the boy said.

Cecilia was speechless. How can we replace Nathaniel just like that?

She bent over, explaining, “Eli, he’s your biological father.”

Elliot held his mother, sighing. “Ah, a man who isn’t ruthless isn’t a man. He abandoned us when we were little. Now that he’s fallen ill, maybe we should abandon him as well.”

Cecilia wondered, Where did he learn all these messed up values from?

She then remembered how Elliot used to watch clichéd dramas with some of the nurses who adored him back when he was hospitalized. I think I know where he gets it from.

“Eli, your father didn’t abandon you. He simply wasn’t aware of your and your brother’s existence before,” she explained.

Ever since Nathaniel lost his memory and said those words to Cecilia, she realized that she had misunderstood.

In fact, Elliot was afraid that Cecilia might get hurt. Given how unstable Nathaniel’s condition. was, they weren’t suitable to be together.

“Ceci, listen to me, okay? Let’s go replace Mr. Reese.” For the sake of Cecilia’s happiness, Elliot thought it was fine to be selfish.

The only reason he was willing to accept Nathaniel was so that Cecilia could have someone to rely on.

“Eli!” Cecilia seemed upset. “If you keep this up, Mommy’s going to get angry.”

Elliot didn’t understand why.

“Elliot, we can’t be selfish in life. When your father was healthy, you never asked me to leave him. But now that he’s unwell, you’re asking me to abandon him, and that’s not right. We need to have a conscience. Unless he’s treated you poorly or failed in his duties as a father, we have no reason to walk away.”

Listening to Cecilia’s words, Elliot couldn’t help but feel a pang of sympathy for her.
