Chapter 504 Thank You For Telling Me

Cecilia and Elliot stood outside. The woman was gorgeous and striking, while the boy was adorable and well–behaved.

Someone sneaked a peek and saw that the child bore a striking resemblance to Nathaniel.

Elliot noticed those unfriendly gazes and furrowed his brows slightly.

Indeed, there isn’t a single decent person in sc*mbag daddy’s family.

“Mommy, I need to pee,” Elliot said.

“All right, I’ll take you there.”

Cecilia led him to the nearby restroom.

Once they arrived, Elliot said, “Mommy, you should head back first and wait for Mr. Rainsworth. Otherwise, he might not be able to replace us when he comes out. I remember the way. I’ll come replace you later on my own.”

Seeing that the restroom wasn’t too far off, Cecilia agreed, “All right, if you can’t replace me, just give me a call.”

Elliot and Jonathan had their smartwatches on them.

“Okay.” Elliot nodded repeatedly before heading into the men’s restroom.

In the living room, most of Nathaniel’s relatives were present, but there was no sign of Nicholas anywhere.

Adrian had recently been discharged from the hospital and had been consistently keeping his head down, avoiding Nathaniel’s gaze.

His attempts to flirt with Cecilia had failed, resulting in Nathaniel throwing him into a freezing river. He came dangerously close to freezing and drowning.

Miranda even wanted to divorce him because of this. He made all sorts of promises and only then did Miranda back down.

At the thought of this, Adrian clenched his fists.

Upon hearing others mention that Cecilia had returned with a child, he immediately asked Miranda to go take a look.

When Miranda stepped out, all she saw was Cecilia waiting alone outside.

She had to admit Cecilia was indeed more beautiful than herself.

The thought of Adrian harboring ill intentions toward Cecilia made her eyes turn cold. She strode forward in her high heels, looking proud.

“Cecilia, I truly didn’t expect that when I helped you back then, you would end up setting up my husband.”

By “helped,” she meant revealing that Elena wasn’t just the mother of one son; Nathaniel had a twin brother.

Recalling the set–up, Cecilia looked at Miranda’s proud face, feeling a sense of pity. “Miranda, even though you weren’t there at the time, anyone present could tell you what your husband did. at the gathering.”

My husband had a drink. Do you really think he would fancy a deaf person like you?” Miranda said sarcastically.

“So, are you saying that Adrian lost control after drinking?” Cecilia was no longer the pushover she sed to be..

“What are you babbling about?” Miranda exploded in an instant, ready to slap Cecilia.

Swiftly, Cecilia seized her wrist. “Did I say something wrong? If I did, then it means he had ulterior motives from the start. You didn’t manage him well, and instead, you’re here scolding me. What’s the meaning of this?”

After saying that, she abruptly let go of Miranda’s hand,

“Thank you for telling me about Nicholas back then, so now I won’t hold it against you. But if you ever try to lay a hand on me again, don’t blame me for fighting back.”

Miranda took several steps back, wanting to say something when a voice interrupted her.

“What are you two doing outside?”

It was Elena who came out, and she was accompanied by Cassandra.

Elena had also heard that Elliot had arrived and wanted to come see the child..

Unexpectedly, she saw Cecilia pushing Miranda away.

Although she didn’t particularly like Cecilia, she understood the importance of protecting one’s town. Cecilia was her daughter–in–law, and it was her exclusive right to bully her.

The mere thought that Robert’s family dared to bully her was utterly ridiculous.

“Miranda, Felix has been bothering Dad. Aren’t you going to do something about it?”

“Oh, okay.” Miranda was somewhat afraid of Elena.
