Chapter 637 Wonder If She Went Too Far
Watching the driver depart in a huff, Cecilia wondered if she had indeed gone too far earlier. I suppose it’s a bit unfair to leave him there when he’s blind.
She set down the watering can she had been using for the plants and entered the living room. Nathaniel was sitting on the couch, eyes closed.
He fully resembled a young wife nursing her grievances in silence.
Cecilia stepped forward, ready to say something. However, she noticed the documents settled in front of Nathaniel. They were all about Smith Corporation’s assets from the past.
She remained in a daze for a long while.
Nathaniel didn’t open his eyes as he spoke. “Everything you asked for is here. Check it out and see if anything’s missing.”
After hearing that, Cecilia glanced at the documents
said about Nathaniel waiting alone at the hospital entable, recalling what the driver had for half an hour. Instantly, she was overwhelmed with guilt. “I… I’m sorry.”
Nathaniel initially thought she was apologizing for leaving with the children.
To his surprise, she continued, “I shouldn’t have left you alone at the hospital entrance. I’ll be more careful in the future. I’m sorry.”
After listening in silence, Nathaniel felt a little better. “Okay.”
As a boss, even his act of forgiving others felt like he was assigning tasks to his employees. Cecilia went to retrieve the documents from the table. “Also, thank you for this information.” She held the documents, eagerly rushing upstairs to peruse them.
Cecilia had never anticipated that Nathaniel could be so skilled. It was because his investigation of Smith Corporation in the past was very thorough, even managing to find some evidence of the company’s asset transfers. That would be of great assistance during her upcoming legal battles.
After taking photos of all those documents, she sent them to Norman, asking him to review them and identify any helpful information.
Norman was highly efficient in his work. Within an hour, he had informed Cecilia of all the potentially useful evidence. Most of it was indeed applicable. “Cecilia, how did you manage to find so much evidence so quickly?”
“It just so happened that a friend of mine collaborated with Smith Corporation in the past.” Cecilia didn’t want to say much, and Norman didn’t pry further.
He simply told her to bring the original and photoconies to him when she could
After that, Cecilia couldn’t help but collapse onto the bed and fall asleep.
She slept straight until the night, only being roused when she heard voices drifting up from downstairs.
Rubbing her eyes, Cecilia stepped out of her room only to realize that Elena had arrived.
Elena also brought along a heap of gifts. Her face lit up with joy as she looked at Elliot.
“Eli, would it be okay if I hold you for a bit?” There was a look of anticipation in Elena’s eyes.
Elliot, however, turned his head away. “No.”
The light in Elena’s eyes dimmed instantly.
“This child is just like you were when you were little. Neither of you liked being held,” she said to Nathaniel with a smile.
Then, she looked around. “Has Jon not been brought back yet?”Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
“Mhm, replied Nathaniel
“It’s not ideal for our Rainsworth family’s child to be raised in the Sinclair family for so long. We should bring him back soon,” Elena said. She hadn’t seen Jon for quite a while.
Nathaniel didn’t respond to her, which essentially meant he disagreed.
Elena was discontented. Her gaze fell upon Cecilia, who was descending the stairs. “What were you doing upstairs? Why are you only coming down now?”
Cecilia felt she had to answer. “I was asleep.”
A chill lingered in Elena’s eyes. “Even though you’re pregnant, you can’t just sleep all day and night. It’s not good for the baby, you know?
Elliot didn’t expect Elena to dare to scold his mom right in front of him, and he instantly became upset. “Your thinking is too old–fashioned, old woman. What we learn nowadays is that pregnant ladies need to get plenty of rest. Since Mommy is having twins, she naturally needs three times the sleep.”
