When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 1785

Chapter 1785 A Lesson
Upon hearing Jonathan's admission, Elliot feared that Nathaniel would scold them, so he immediately pleaded, “I'm sorry, Dad, we promise not to misbehave again. Please don't blame Jon.”

Nathaniel stared intently at the two individuals, his facial expression remained utterly unchanged.

“You guys don't have to apologize to me.”

Both kids were taken aback upon hearing the remark.

“Both of you did the right thing. When someone tries to bully you, it's only natural to fight back. However,” Nathaniel paused before continuing, “you're too young. If something like this happens in the future, make sure to inform me first. Secondly, you're all too careless in your actions, making it easy for others to see through your plans.”

After hearing all this, Jonathan couldn't help but nod in agreement. “You're right. We didn't think it through earlier.”

“Be more careful in the future,” Nathaniel warned.

Both children nodded in unison.

Their fondness for Nathaniel was now elevated to the next level.

Nathaniel looked at the two younger versions of himself, then asked, “What did Adrian intend to do to you?”

Jonathan shook her head. “Actually, we weren't really sure what he was up to. All we knew was that he was attempting to trick us, saying he was taking us to his place for ice cream. I had a feeling he was up to no good.”

“Yes, yes, I can vouch for it. H was trying to deceive us just now,” Elliot added.

Ice cream?

Nathaniel couldn't quite grasp what Adrian was planning, but thankfully, both children were unharmed.

“Let's not mention this matter to your mother; it would only cause her unnecessary worry.”

“Alright.”

Meanwhile, Adrian was in the hospital, screaming in agony.

Miranda rushed over and seeing him in this state, she couldn't help but express her disdain.

Miranda clenched her fists. “If all else fails, you have to help me. We need to find a way to ensure they never have any claim to the inheritance.”

However, the man fell silent.

“Miranda, I believe neither of us should handle this matter directly just in case something were to go wrong. It would be better to have another person to do it.”

Miranda realized that the man had backed down, and a wave of disappointment washed over her instantly.

“Didn't you keep saying you love me?”

“Of course I love you, but shouldn't we also consider our future?”

Miranda stopped talking and ended the call.

Now, she had no one left to rely on.

Just when she was wearing a frown, a sound echoed from behind her.
