When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him Novel

Chapter 780 Sunbathing In The Garden

Cecilia was somewhat baffled. Jessica had come to her house, claiming to be there to take care of Cecilia. Yet, Jessica was now dictating when Cecilia should get up.

“Yes, what’s the matter?” Cecilia looked calm and composed.

“Aunt Elena is here. She asked me to call you downstairs. Please, don’t be mad at me.”

Jessica spoke loudly, so Elena could hear her downstairs.

Elena was somewhat displeased.

How dare she be angry even though she woke up so late?

As Elliot was there, she restrained herself from lashing out at Cecilia. Once Cecilia walked down the stairs, Elena said, “In the future, try to wake up earlier. Oversleeping isn’t good for the baby.”

Upon hearing this, Cecilia immediately knew that Jessica must have said something to Elena..

Realizing that further explanation would be pointless, Cecilia responded, “Okay.”

After all, Elena only visited once a month. Once Elena left, Cecilia could wake up whenever she pleased. There was no need to argue with Elena over something as trivial as getting out of bed.

Sure enough, once Elena heard Cecilia agree, she didn’t say much else.

Actually, it was Jessica who said, “Aunt Elena, don’t worry. I will help you keep an eye on Cecilia.”

Upon hearing these words, Cecilia felt an overwhelming urge to throw her out.

Jessica feigned innocence as she turned back to look at Cecilia. “Cecilia, with me monitoring you, you’ll definitely wake up in time.

“Thank you so much.”

“You’re welcome.”

Elena, oblivious to the underlying tension between the two, began chatting with Elliot.

“Eli, would you like to go out and have some fun with me today?”

Elliot knew that Cecilia had been extremely busy lately. As he knew that his presence at home might be a disturbance to Cecilia, he nodded in agreement. “Okay.”

Jessica joined the conversation. “Aunt Elena, I’ll go with the both of you. If you or Eli need. anything like carrying or buying things, I can help!”

“Okay.” Elena nodded. “Let’s go out now and have something to eat outside.”

“I know a great breakfast place in Tudela. Let me lead the way.” Jessica was full of eagerness to please.

Elena was glad that there was someone offering to help them.

After they left. Cecilia went to the dining room to have breakfast alone. Finally, she found some peace and quiet.

After she finished breakfast, she went on to compose music.

She would talk to Eric online to see what thoughts he might have.

After having lunch at noon, Cecilia settled down for a brief rest in the garden.

It had rained the entirety of yesterday, so the air outside was exceptionally crisp.

She was lying on the lounge chair, her face concealed behind a book. Unknowingly, she drifted. off to sleep.

Meanwhile, at Seabay Villa, Nathanial finished his check–up and asked Mason, “Did Jessica visit Cecilia?”

Yes. When Ms. Quill visited yesterday, Mrs. Rainsworth wasn’t there. She waited outside for the entire day,” replied Mason.

He only found out about this matter when Jessica sent him a message.

Nathaniel didn’t care at all about Jessica having to wait for a day. He simply asked, “Did Cecilia not say anything?”

Mason shook his head. He had not received any news from Cecilia yet.

Upon hearing this, Nathaniel couldn’t help but wonder what Cecilia was up to at the moment.

“What is she doing now?”

Mason immediately called the villa’s security guards to ask.

Quickly, the security guard responded, “The lady is sunbathing in the garden.”

Sunbathing?

Upon hearing this news, Nathaniel couldn’t help but frown.

She was indeed living quite freely now.

“Mr. Rainsworth, should we head back?” Mason thought that Nathaniel was reluctant to admit that he wanted to go back.

Nathaniel’s eyes narrowed slightly. “I won’t return.”

News that Nathaniel was living apart from Cecilia had already been found out by Nicholas.

After finishing a game of golf, Nicholas and Ethan, the eldest son of the Murdock family, casually tossed their golf clubs aside. Then, Nicholas turned to his subordinates and said, “Let’s go.”

Once he got into the car, he instructed the driver to head straight for Daltonia Villa.
