When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 612 A Mother Is Strong For Her Children

A mother stood strong for her children. After much thought, Cecilia decided to start making preparations.

She first reached out to Erwin Bloggs, the preschool principal, expressing her intent to invest. Erwin agreed swiftly.

Subsequently, Cecilia began to integrate herself into the mothers group gradually. She didn’t do anything, simply observing the conversations and wants of the mothers within the group chat.

During busy times, time seemed to fly by. Rubbing his sleep–filled eyes, Elliot called out, “Mommy, can I eat now?”

“Yeah.”

Cecilia shut down her computer and descended the stairs.

Elliot intentionally had Cecilia and Nathaniel sit together during mealtime..

“Mommy, please sit across from me.”

Across from him was Nathaniel.

Cecilia glanced at Nathaniel, noticing his silence before sitting down.

anymore.

Nathaniel, however, didn’t have much of an appetite and only ate a little.

The two were seated very closely. Cecilia’s arm would unintentionally brush against him from time to time. Right when she thought about creating distance between them, Nathaniel subtly reached out under the table, firmly grasping Cecilia’s chair and pulling it close to him.

With a loud scrape, the chair moved across the floor.

Cecilia’s body swayed with the movement, and she nearly stumbled into his arms.

“What are you doing?” She couldn’t help but ask.

“I couldn’t see. Ah, I’ve pulled the wrong chair,” Nathaniel casually replied.

Cecilia decided not to argue with him over it and was about to move the chair again, but Nathaniel decisively held her hand.

“Is this also an accident?” Cecilia was getting a bit angry.

At that moment, Elliot tactfully chimed in, “Mommy, Daddy can’t see, so you should be a bit more understanding toward him.”

Cecilia was truly perplexed. She couldn’t fathom what Nathaniel had done to win the child’s

favor. She wondered why Elliot was so keen on helping him.

She forcefully withdrew her hand and continued eating her meal, her gaze lowered.

Just at that moment, the phone rang again.

Upon seeing it was a call from Eric, Cecilia immediately stood up to answer.

“Eric, what’s wrong?”

Upon hearing Eric’s name, the expressions of the father–and–sons trio around the dining table instantly became serious.

Jonathan had also come across the scandal between Eric and Cecilia and was worried on his mother’s behalf. After all, none of the popular celebrities were good people.

Elliot was about to stand up, but Jonathan grabbed him. “Where are you going?”

“I’m going to eavesdrop on Mommy’s and Mr. Eric’s conversation.”

Only then did Jonathan let go of him. “Be careful.” Don’t let Mommy find out.

Before he could finish his sentence, Elliot had already slipped away quietly.

Nathaniel had completely lost his appetite and instructed the bodyguards outside to keep an ear

out.

Outside, Eric was in the car.

“Could you have the song ready by this week, Ceci?”

“I’ve already amended it and just need to add the lyrics. Once I’m done, I’ll give it to you.”

Most of Cecilia’s songs were self–composed and self–written.

“That’s great. I can showcase my singing in Alendor,” said Eric with a wry smile.

“Alendor? Why are you going so far away all of a sudden?”

Naturally, Eric was too embarrassed to admit to Cecilia that a company had dumped him.

“It’s a business trip, but I’ll be back soon.”

“I wish you a safe journey, then,”

Cecilia ended the call once the conversation ended.

Elliot was secretly listening in, finding it odd that Eric, who had just returned, was already planning to head off to Alendor.

Seeing Cecilia was about to return, he immediately went back to the dining table and continued eating with Nathaniel and Jonathan, pretending as if nothing had happened.

Once done with dinner, the family rested in the living room until the clock struck nine when Cecilia ushered the children off to bed.

Meanwhile, she continued writing the lyrics.
