When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 1725

Chapter 1725 Final Affairs
Cassandra could only wait. “All right. When you're free, remember to give me a call.”

“Mm-hmm.” Miranda nodded, ending the call.

She returned to her seat, settling down next to her husband, Adrian. She noticed that Adrian's gaze would occasionally drift toward Cecilia.

Even though Miranda no longer harbored romantic feelings for Adrian, she couldn't help but feel anger toward him. She jabbed him harshly with her hand.

“Adrian, what are you doing?”

Adrian immediately averted his gaze, clearing his throat awkwardly.

Miranda moved closer to him, lowering her voice. “Adrian, you better not have forgotten what I asked you to do last time. Did you take care of it?”

She threatened Adrian, demanding the elimination of Cecilia's child.

However, at the moment, all three of Cecilia's children were still happily playing and frolicking around.

Looking at these children, Miranda felt a headache coming on.

Adrian's expression was somewhat unnatural. “I know. Can't I take my time to plan? Do you want me to get into trouble?”

“Hurry up. Cecilia is now the heiress of the Jamieson family. If you keep delaying, our family will be left with nothing.”

Given the size of the table, everyone was seated quite far apart. The whispered conversation between the two wasn't overheard by anyone else.

At that moment, Niel also emerged, leaning on his walking stick.

Recently, his health had been deteriorating. Even though Robert had been tirelessly searching for all sorts of miraculous cures for him, it couldn't alter the inevitable fate of his impending old age.

“Grandpa...” everyone called out.

With a smile, Niel gestured for everyone to take their seats and start eating.

He also thoughtfully asked Cecilia, “Cecilia, I'm not sure what your favorite foods are. If what's served doesn't suit your taste, let the chef know, and he'll prepare something you like. Don't hesitate to tell me.”

Niel spoke with a gentle expression on his face.

Miranda immediately shut her mouth.

Robert then turned his gaze back to Niel. “Dad, you didn't call us all here just to have this reunion dinner, did you?”

Seeing that everyone had almost finished eating, Niel decided not to hold back any longer.

“Robert, you know as well as I do that my health is deteriorating day by day. There are some matters that I should address now.”

As soon as these words were spoken, Elena, who was amusing her grandson on the side, also ceased what she was doing. She became serious, pricking up her ears to listen to Niel's words.

Miranda was also incredibly nervous, so much so that she even nudged her son, Felix, forward a bit.

Felix immediately understood and quickly said, “Grandpa, I'm sure you will live a long and prosperous life.”

“Hahaha...” Niel was amused by him. “Felix is such a good boy.”

Elliot, who was standing on one side, understood the gravity of the situation. Wasn't this the moment Niel was preparing to discuss his final affairs, instructing the younger generation on how to handle his assets?
