When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 934 Remember Those Words

Stella had not made much of an effort to dress up that day. She was wearing simple clothes, her long hair cascading over her shoulders. Her complexion was also slightly pale.

When she saw Cecilia, she offered a polite smile, no longer possessing the arrogant demeanor she had a few days ago.

Cecilia sat down, taking a sip of warm water.

The class representative, Ruth, called out, “Come on, everyone, please take a seat. It’s not often that our whole class gets the chance to gather together. Don’t just stand around.”

Everyone took their seats one after another.

Someone sat next to Cecilia and couldn’t resist asking her, “Ceci, is it true that you’re a renowned composer, as the recent news suggests?”

Cecilia nodded. “Yes, it’s true.”

Upon hearing that, the others turned their gaze toward Cecilia, their expressions varying greatly.

“Ceci, you’re really something else, aren’t you?”

“Don’t you have a hearing impairment? Our teacher once mentioned that your pursuit of music was much more challenging than ours.”

“Yeah, who would have thought that you’d end up becoming a composer?”

Everyone was taking turns to shower praises.

Unable to stand it any longer, Yvette blurted out, “So what if she wrote a few songs? What’s so impressive about that? It’s not like she’s completely deaf.”

After Yvette spoke up, the others promptly fell silent, not wishing to get involved in the argument.

On the other hand, Stella, who was beside her, gently tugged at her hand and addressed Cecilia, “Ceci, please don’t take it to heart. Yvie had a bit of alcohol before she came over, so she must be drunk.”

“Stella!” Yvette whined, dragging the last syllable out. “What are you talking about? I haven’t had a drop of alcohol, let alone be drunk.”NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.

Yvette pulled away from Stella’s grasp and stood up. “Cecilia, everyone knows you snatched Nathaniel right from Stella’s hands. If it weren’t for you, how could Stella have possibly ended up ruined? You’re nothing but a homewrecker. Now that you’re famous, what are you trying to pretend to be?”

No one expected that Yvette could disregard Cecilia’s dignity so completely, berating her in front of everyone like that.

Upon hearing these words, a hint of mockery tugged atthe corner of Cecilia’s mouth.

“Yvette, you really are Stella’s good friend, always twisting the truth. Nathaniel and I are legally married and have a marriage certificate to prove it. How could I possibly be the other woman?”

This statement made Cecilia want to laugh particularly hard.

In a short while, Yvette would understand what it was like to walk in someone else’s shoes.

“Well then, you better remember these words.” Cecilia articulated each word carefully.

“Of course, I’ll remember. Everyone present will help me remember, including Ruth,” Yvette said with a face full of pride.

She felt as though she had stood up for Stella this time, but she was oblivious to the fact that Stella had never taken her seriously.

Ruth, fearing that today’s gathering would be ruined, quickly stepped in to mediate. “All right, all right, let’s not dwell on the past. Our main focus now is to reminisce about our university days.”

Stella also chimed in, “Exactly. Yvie, no more of that; we’re at a class reunion now.”

Only then did Yvette let it go.

While everyone else was engrossed in conversation, she leaned in to whisper to Stella, “Stella, you see it now, right? Cecilia is nothing more than a paper tiger, utterly useless.”

Stella merely smiled, choosing not to respond.

She was still fearful of Nathaniel’s retaliation, so she didn’t dare to offend Cecilia at the moment.

When Cecilia mentioned that she needed to use the restroom, Stella immediately followed.

“Ceci.”

Cecilia paused, turning to look at Stella, who went on to ask, “Did you see the message I sent you?”

“I did. What about it?” Cecilia appeared unconcerned.

“You’re not mad at me, are you?” Stella nervously rubbed her hands together.
