When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 907 The Squabble

If this woman truly belonged to Calvin, then he definitely couldn’t lay a finger on her!

Moreover, Ethan didn’t plan on doing anything to Cecilia, because he was aware that Nicholas also had unusual feelings for this woman.

At the time, Ethan wasn’t ready to offend Nicholas as well. He was aware that with the current strength of the Murdock family, they were no match for the Rainsworth family.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

“How am I to know if you’re telling the truth?”

Ethan pulled out his phone. “Since you’re carrying Calvin’s child, you should know his number, right?”

A twinge of anxiety gripped Cecilia’s heart, hoping for Sven to bring someone over quickly. So, she said, “Of course I know.”

What she didn’t know was that Sven and Mason, along with their men, had already arrived and surrounded the place. Just to be safe, they were also monitoring the activities inside.

“The number is saved in my phone.”

Ethan glanced at his subordinate, who instantly understood his intent. Swiftly, he fetched Cecilia’s mobile phone. After unlocking it, he casually flipped through it and, sure enough, found the contact number for Calvin.

“In my presence, call Calvin! If you’re deceiving me, don’t blame me for what happens next.”

The reason he asked Cecilia to do this was to make Nathaniel feel even more embarrassed..

Rather than killing Nathaniel outright, he believed that tormenting him emotionally would cause greater suffering!

Cecilia was released from constraints and forced to make a phone call, silently hoping that Calvin on the other end wouldn’t pick up.

She dialed the number and switched it to speakerphone.

The surroundings had quieted down. Nathaniel had been attentively listening to the sounds coming from Cecilia’s direction, trying to gauge how far away he was from her and pinpoint her location.

The phone was ringing incessantly, but no one on the other end seemed to answer. Just as Cecilia began to worry that something had happened to Calvin, preventing him from picking up, the call was finally answered in the last few seconds.

“Ceci?” Calvin called out tenderly.

Ethan pressed his tongue against his lower jaw, genuinely surprised that a little deaf girl with a ruined face could actually know someone from the Reese family.

“Calvin, I have something to discuss with you,” Cecilia slowly began.

“What’s up? Tell me.” Calvin was actually thrilled because it was his first time receiving her call in a while.

“Nathaniel has found out about the child I’m carrying for you.”

The other end of the phone was eerily silent.

Cecilia’s palms were clammy with cold sweat as she held the phone, terrified that Calvin would see through her facade.

Unexpectedly, Calvin surprisingly went with the flow, asking her, “There’s nothing to be afraid of. Where are you now? I’ll send someone to pick you up.”

“Right now, I…”

Ethan rose to his feet, casting her a chilling glance.

Cecilia mustered up the courage and said, “Don’t worry, I’m currently at a friend’s place. This friend absolutely despises Nathaniel, so I’m sure he’ll protect me.”

In the next instant, Ethan snatched her phone away, promptly ending the call.

“Do you have a death wish? You really want to tell him where you are, hoping he’ll come to your rescue?” Cecila denied, “I just didn’t want him to worry. Besides, I never mentioned where I was.”

Only then did Ethan decide to stop.

At that moment, Jessica could no longer bear to watch on the side. “Cecilia, you have no shame! You will surely die a painful death!”

Cecilia had long since grown tired of her, so she simply seized this golden opportunity. She walked over to Jessica and kicked her.

“Shut up!”

If it wasn’t for Jessica bringing up her pregnancy, she wouldn’t have to pretend that the child was Calvin’s and put on an act.

Jessica wailed in pain incessantly. Without any courtesy, Cecilia kept kicking her, yelling, “Just die, just die!”

There were less people near Jessica, and she was closest to the entrance.

Having noticed that as well, Nathaniel stepped back a few paces and said, “Cecilia, stop it.”

Much to his surprise, Ethan found that the three had unexpectedly started to squabble amongst themselves. For a moment, he didn’t even attempt to intervene.
