When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him Novel

Chapter 1178 Stand With Him

“That’s true. Once Robert arrives, he’ll surely stir things up even more at Orion Corporation. By then, it’ll be much easier for Imminence Corporation to take over, Mason replied.

Nathaniel didn’t dwell further on the matter regarding Robert. Instead, he asked him, “How have things been with Ralph lately?”

“He’s been eating, drinking, having fun, and dealing with Magnus‘ lawsuit,” Mason said.

“Find a way to ensure Magnus‘ victory”

“Okay.”

Actually, Mason believed that Magnus would win, even without Nathaniel’s arrangement.

Upon investigating. Mason discovered that the person always backing Magnus was none other than Nicholas.

It was unclear why Nicholas had always supported Magnus, even going so far as to go behind Cassandra’s back.

Right then, there was a knock at the door.

After ending the call. Nathaniel waited for the visitor to enter. It turned out to be Cecilia.

After Cecilia walked in, she sat down, somewhat exhausted. “So tired,” she said.

She was then panting after just a few steps. Even when she was pregnant before, it was never as exhausting as this time.

After hearing what was said, Nathaniel walked over to her and asked, “Do you want me to give you a massage?”

Just as his hands were about to reach out, Cecilia immediately blocked him.

“Don’t.” With a blush coloring her face, Cecilia steadied herself on the chair as she stood. “No need. I just came to see you today, and then I’ll head back”

For reasons she couldn’t quite fathom, she found herself feeling somewhat embarrassed every time she laid eyes on Nathaniel.

Nathaniel’s hands hung in mid–air, only slowly retracting after a considerable pause..

“Are you going to leave so soon? Is there something urgent you need to attend to?” he asked.

After some thought, Cecilia came up with an excuse, saying, “Isn’t Nicholas about to get married? Mom asked me to keep an eye on things.”

After she finished speaking, she couldn’t wait to leave.

Nathaniel watched her retreating figure, his heart unavoidably thrown into turmoil.

Nicholas was set to get married in a couple of days. However, the weather wasn’t particularly favorable, as it had been raining nonstop

Early in the morning, Dylan was insistent on finding Elliot to play. No matter what Cassina said, it was to no avail.

Queenie couldn’t bear it anymore. “Kids naturally seek playmates. If he wants to go, let someone take him there.”

“But…” Cassina hesitated for a moment before finally agreeing and saying, “All right, then.”

The housekeeper then took Dylan to find Elliot.

Cassina stayed at home with Queenie, overseeing the preparations for the wedding.

Something suddenly occurred to Queenie, prompting her to ask the housekeeper, “By the way, has that spoiled brat, Felix. been causing any trouble for Dylan lately?”

The housekeeper immediately shook her head, “No. He wouldn’t dare.

Only then did Queenie let the matter rest.

At that time, Felix was still nursing a sore bottom. When his grandfather, Robert, returned, he couldn’t wait to report his grievance.

Robert listened silently with a chilling glint in his eyes. “Felix, you’re a big boy. You need to understand the value of patience and restraint, all right?”

After hearing that, Felix was puzzled. “Grandpa, are you just going to stand by and watch me get bullied? You should quickly have someone deal with that bad woman.”

From the sidelines, Miranda stopped him. “Felix, don’t put your grandpa in a tough spot.”

Felix pursed his lips, looking as though he was on the verge of tears.

Robert couldn’t help but reassure him, “Felix, it’s not that I don’t want to help you. You just need to be patient. I’ve returned. this time with important matters to attend to.”

He then had the housekeepers escort Felix to the room first before he began to inquire about Adrian’s affairs.

Miranda had a sour expression on her face. “I have no clue where he’s off gallivanting to. I just can’t seem to get a hold of him.”

“Miranda, it’s not uncommon for men to be fickle, but no matter what, you’re his lawful wife, and that’s unchangeable. You should stand with him instead of letting others use him,” Robert, being an old hand at this, advised. “The disunity between you and your husband is what led to both of you being driven out of Orion Corporation.”
