When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 1854

Chapter 1854 A Jinx
After a sleepless night, Zeke's mother hurried over early the next morning.

Tears filled Allison's eyes as she asked, “Zeke, what exactly happened to our company? Why are the previous business partners demanding money from me now?”

Zeke's eyes were tinged with a shade of blue, his stubble grown out overnight, presenting an unkempt appearance.

“Mom, we're done for.”

The conversation between the two was overheard by Camila, who, like them, had risen early and hadn't had much rest.

Her heart, too, began to flutter in panic.

Even if she was naive, she knew something serious had happened to the Turner family this time around. Otherwise, Allison wouldn't have rushed over so early in the morning with tears streaming down her face.

At that moment, only Conrad was still sound asleep.

Allison was confused. “What on earth is going on? Have you offended someone?”

Zeke had no choice but to relay the sequence of events to Allison.

Allison let out a sigh, scolding him, “You're such a fool! I warned you, didn't I? I told you not to divorce, but you didn't listen to me. The Seiler family's daughter was such a catch, but you insisted on marrying a useless model. Camila is nothing but a jinx. You've only just brought her back, but look at the chaos the company is already facing. What's going to become of our family in the future? Go find Meredith right now and apologize to her personally!”

After she finished speaking, Allison noticed Camila, who was eavesdropping from the corner. Her brows were knitted tightly in disapproval.

“You vixen! What are you still doing in my house? Get out!”

After much difficulty, Camila had finally moved in, and naturally, she wouldn't leave so easily.

“Mom, after all, I am Conrad's mother. You should at least show some respect for Conrad's sake.”

“If it weren't for Conrad, I would have kicked you out a long time ago.”

After Allison finished speaking, a thought suddenly struck her. She grasped Zeke's hand and said, “Zeke, here's what you should do. Take her with you. You should apologize to Meredith together. This way, Meredith will surely forgive you.”

Startled, Camila declared, “I'm not going.”

The secretary shook her head. “From what I saw, it didn't seem like Zeke came here to cause trouble.”

“Let them in. I'm intrigued to see what they are really up to.”

“All right.”

Meredith was sipping her coffee when, before long, she saw Zeke arrive with Camila in tow.

Dressed in a beautiful long dress, Camila wore a reluctant face when she greeted, “Ms. Seiler.”

With a smile on his face, Zeke called out, “Meredith.”

Meredith didn't offer the pair a seat. Instead, she rested her chin on her hand, eyeing the two individuals. “Mr. Turner, Ms. Anderson, it's been a while.”

At that moment, even though Zeke had changed into a suit, it still couldn't hide the fact that he was disheveled from lack of sleep.

Zeke walked up with a smile, saying, “Meredith, there's no need for formalities. I've come specifically to apologize to you this time. I've also brought her along.”
