Chapter 712
Chapter 712 An Irresponsible Mother
Cecilia found it hard to refuse any longer, deciding to stay there for the time being. It would also make it easier to monitor Calvin’s health condition.
In the evening, the personal doctor came over to examine Calvin’s health and change his medication.
Cecilia was sitting off to the side, making a call to Elliot. As the video call connected, Elliot’s adorably chubby face filled the screen. “Mommy, why are you calling me?” he asked.
Since Elena was still present, Elliot didn’t ask her if she had seen Calvin.
“There’s nothing in particular. I just wanted to see how you were doing-”
Before she could finish her sentence, Cecilia suddenly heard a familiar voice from the other end. “Sweetie, who’s on the phone with you?”
Just as Elliot was about to switch off his phone, Elena had already walked over and noticed
Cecilia.
In the presence of her grandson, Elena didn’t dare to scold Cecilia for leaving Elliot behind. Instead, she said kindly to her. “Oh, it’s you, Ceci. Where have you been? Why haven’t you. returned at this hour?”
Cecilia didn’t want to throw a wrench in the works, so she lied by saying, “There’s been a minor issue with my private company. I came back to check on it.”
When she returned to Erihal this time, she genuinely wanted to see how the company had been performing.
Upon hearing such a response, Elena scoffed inwardly. Cecilia’s company, despite all its grand talk, is essentially nothing more than a small workspace akin to a studio. It’s truly irresponsible to leave Elliot alone at home for the sake of a small company.
Despite her thoughts, Elena said, “Once you’re done with your tasks, hurry back. Don’t wear yourself out. You’re pregnant. If you’re short on cash, don’t hesitate to ask me for help.”
Cecilia understood that she was speaking this way, all out of consideration for her grandson, and she cooperated by responding accordingly.
Elena wasn’t just all talk. After hanging up the phone, Cecilia was stunned to find that a whopping fifty million had been deposited into her account.
A text message swiftly followed. It was from Elena, and it read: You’re carrying the Rainsworth family’s child and are still the lady of the Rainsworth family. If you need anything, just let me know. Don’t be
hard on yourself.
Cecilia was somewhat perplexed. How on earth am I being hard on myself?
Cecilia then replied: Thank you. I’ll save the money for Eli and Jon in the future.
Elena didn’t respond any further, and Cecilia also turned off her phone.
The medicine and bandages for Calvin had been changed afresh. As the doctor was leaving, he warned Calvin, “You must refrain from any strenuous activity for the time being. Also, try to keep your emotions stable.”
“All right.“”
Watching the doctor leave, Calvin turned to Cecilia and asked, “Are you tired? Would go to sleep?”
Glancing at the time, Cecilia saw it was already half past nine in the evening.

She was pregnant and usually went to bed by nine o’clock. It was indeed getting late that night.

The rooms of Cecilia and Calvin were adjacent to each other, and they retired to bed one after the other.
After a full day on the airplane, Cecilia quickly fell asleep.
Meanwhile, in a hotel. Nathaniel found himself unable to fall asleep no matter what he tried.
He listened as Mason mentioned that Cecilia had gone to Calvin’s private manor and hadn’t left since then.
“Mr. Rainsworth, should we call Mrs. Rainsworth and let her know you’re at the hotel? Maybe she could come and stay at the hotel as well?”
One could say that Mason was absolutely drained that day.
If Nathaniel could still see, there was absolutely no need for Mason to accompany him.
Nathaniel was in a sour mood that day. A chill seemed to surround him when he said, “If she remembered me, she wouldn’t have left me without contact till now.”
“Go get some rest,” Nathaniel said to Mason.
Mason nodded. “All right.”
Mason was staying in the room next door, and he was oblivious to the undercurrents stirring. within the hotel at that time. Outside, a succession of black luxury cars had started to pull up.
Yannick was sitting in the car. He dialed Calvin’s number and asked, “Calvin, I’ve arrived. Are you coming?”
Calvin glanced toward the neighboring room, noticing the lights had already been turned off.
