When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 313 They Are Back

In Sparaville, Cecilia ended her call with Vivian and turned to look at Nathaniel, who was still deeply engrossed in learning Braille. Unable to hold back her curiosity, she asked, “Did you hear the news just now?”

Nathaniel didn’t lift his head as he responded, “Yes, I heard. Someone’s impersonating me.”

“Doesn’t that bother you?” Cecilia probed further, surprised by his calmness.

Nathaniel finally looked. up, his gaze steady. “All I want is to live a good life with you, to master Braille, so I can take better care of you and our unborn child.”

Child..

Cecilia’s heart skipped a beat, and her hand instinctively fell to her stomach. “What child?”

“My mother told me you’re pregnant, Nathaniel replied, his voice soft yet firm. “Don’t worry, even if I can’t see, I won’t let you or our child suffer.”

Cecilia hadn’t expected Elena to reveal her pregnancy to Nathaniel, especially considering his current state of amnesia. Trying to maintain her composure, she responded coldly, “The child I’m carrying isn’t yours.”

Nathaniel’s expression faltered. Cecilia braced herself for an outburst, but to her surprise, it never came. Instead, Nathaniel gripped the book in his hand tightly, his voice calm but strained. “Whose is it then?”

“It doesn’t matter whose it is,” Cecilia replied, attempting to hide her turmoil. She turned to leave, but Nathaniel reached out, grasping her hand firmly.

“If it’s not clear who the father is, then it’s my responsibility,” Nathaniel said, his voice full of conviction. “I’ll take care of you both.”

Cecilia was stunned, unable to comprehend his response. She had merely stated that the child. wasn’t his, but she hadn’t said she didn’t know who the father was. His earnestness left her at a loss for words.

Seeing her hesitation, Nathaniel continued, “Don’t worry. If I could run a multinational corporation before my memory loss, then even if I’m blind now, I won’t let you or our child down.”

Cecilia pulled her hand away, too exhausted to argue further. “There’s no need for that. Just take care of yourself.”

Without another word, Cecilia hurried upstairs, retreating to her room to resume composing music. Even though she had a substantial amount of money at her disposal, she knew there were no guarantees for the future. The Smith family’s fortune had once been vast, only to be squandered away in a blink.

As she focused on her work, her phone rang again. She picked it up to find it was Norman on the line.

“Mr. Jenkins.”

“Ms. Smith, I’ve been trying to reach you,” Norman said, his tone heavy with concern. After making inquiries through various sources, he had finally managed to contact her.

Cecilia had forgotten she instructed Norman to return the money to Nathaniel. “Sorry, I forgot to get in touch with you, Mr. Jenkins.”

“No, I should be the one apologizing.” Norman said with a sigh.This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

“Is something wrong?” Cecilia asked, sensing an urgency in his voice.

Norman began, sighing deeply. “I tried returning the money to Nathaniel, but he refused to accept it. I thought I’d find you to hand it over, but.. a few days ago, your mother and your younger brother returned to Tudela. They somehow found out that I had a large sum of money and sued me, claiming I embezzled your father’s wealth. Now, all eight billion is frozen.”

Cecilia’s heart sank as she processed his words. The people Norman referred to were none other than her biological mother, Paula, and her younger brother, Magnus. She hadn’t expected them to return after so many years, let alone make such a move.

If they won the lawsuit, Norman might end up in jail for embezzlement.

“Mr. Jenkins, don’t worry,” Cecilia reassured him. “I have a record of the transaction. They won’t win this case.”

Reflecting back, Cecilia realized that a significant portion of the money had come from an investment made by an unfamiliar benefactor, whose identity remained a mystery to her. But right now, she needed to focus on clearing Norman’s name.

Norman’s voice was filled with worry as he continued, “Ms. Smith, your mother and brother seem different from before. You need to be careful, and do not let them mistreat you.”
