When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 1499

Chapter 1499 That Old Witch Is Back 

She’s going to see Cecilia again? 

In Cassandra’s eyes, there was nothing but jealousy. 

She couldn’t help but worry. If things continued this way, she was certain that Cecilia would eventually replace her. 

All of the Jamieson Tamily’s vast fortune would eventually be given to Cecilia. 

She refused to accept it. 

However, the last time she met Stella, Stella didn’t offer any good suggestions. 

“What should I do?” 

At the Smith residence, after everyone had their fill of food and drink, they relaxed, chatted, and caught up on their favorite shows. 

Cecilia decided to take a walk outside to aid digestion, and Elliot trailed behind her. 

“Mommy, don’t walk too fast,” Elliot cautioned, terrified that Cecilia might fall. He watched her every move with meticulous care. 

Cecilia felt a bit embarrassed being taken care of by such a young child. “Don’t worry, I’m fine.” 

Elliot noticed her gentle tone toward him, yet it was laced with a sense of distance, which left him feeling somewhat disheartened. 

He looked at Cecilia and asked, “Mommy, do you really not remember me at all? Not even a tiny bit?” 

When Cecilia met his gaze, she couldn’t help but feel a wave of guilt. 

Cecilia’s silence made Elliot feel even more upset. “Haven’t you ever dreamt of Jon and me?” 

Cecilia suddenly remembered them. 

“I have. I found it really strange at that time.” 

Finally, Elliot felt a bit happier. He clung to Cecilia’s thigh and said in his high–pitched voice, “I thought* you had completely forgotten about us. But it seems you’ve always kept us in your heart.” 

Cecilia was actually not yet accustomed to having such a grown–up son. However, seeing him upset made her feel uneasy too. So, she bent down and hugged him back. 

“I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have forgotten about you all.” 

She fervently wished she could remember everything at that moment, so as not to upset those who cared 

about her. 

Elliot felt the warmth of her embrace, a maternal love he hadn’t felt in a long time, His eyes turned red with emotion.

grow up, I’ll be there to protect you.” 

“Good boy,” Cecilia said. 

The mother and child were oblivious to the vehicle parked not far away. 

Queenie and Caliste stepped out of the vehicle. 

From afar, Queenie observed Cecilia and Elliot, longing to join them and share some heartfelt conversations 

With sharp eyes, Elliot was the first to notice Queenie. 

He rubbed his sore eyes, pointing off into the distance. Mommy, that old witch is back again.” 

Old witch? 

Finished 

Cecilia followed the direction of his pointing finger and saw Queenie, who had been standing outside at some point. 

Queenie also noticed that they were looking at her. She stood there, somewhat awkwardly, reluctant to leave just like that. 

Cecilia said to Elliot, “Eli, we need to be respectful toward our elders and refrain from using harsh words, understand?” 

The person Elliot listened to the most was Cecilia. He slowly nodded. 

“All right, I won’t curse her anymore in the future.” 

After finishing her conversation with Elliot, Cecilia stood up and led the child by the hand toward Queenie. 

“Mdm. Queenie, is there anything I can do for you?” 

Even though she had learned from Vivian and others that Queenie was her biological mother, without any previous experiences or memories, Cecilia didn’t feel any emotional fluctuations. 

Faced with Cecilia’s questioning, Queenie was so nervous that she began to stutter. 

“U–Uh, nothing…” She had been a formidable figure in the business world for many years, yet this was the first time she appeared so flustered. “I just came to see how you all are doing.”
