Chapter 34 He Had BecIncreasingly Ruthless
“Mommy, have you arrived yet? On the nights when I'm not around, always remember to have a warm glass of
milk before you go to sleep. Also, don’t forget to take your vitamins... and don’t kick off your blanket while you
sleep at night; you'll catch a chill. I left my and Eli's favorite plush toys in your suitcase. If you can’t sleep, let
them keep you company...”
When it cto her eldest son, he was the type who, if he didn’t feel like talking, wouldn't utter a single word.
However, whenever he spoke, he sounded like an elder, constantly nagging and fussing. It was unclear who he
had inherited this from.
At times, Cecilia felt as if he was the adult between them.
“All right, I'll definitely remember.”
Once Jon finished speaking, it was only then that Cecilia reluctantly ended the call.
Back when she first left for abroad, she had been battling depression and suffered from hearing impairment. On
top of that, she was pregnant, so she often had sleepless nights and struggled to
cat.
After the birth of the twins, her illness hadn't been cured, but her condition had improved somewhat.
As the children gradually grew up, they surprisingly began to take care of her once the two little ones learned to
walk and talk.
They were practically her saviors.
After having smilk and vitamins, Cecilia proceeded to open her suitcase. Sure enough, she found two rabbit
plushies inside, both faintly carrying the scent of milk.
That night, Cecilia lay in bed and was able to sleep remarkably peacefully while holding onto them.
The following day, at the break of dawn.

Cecilia received a text message: Nathaniel returns htoday and is set to attend a charity auction at the
Stelason Hotel at nine o'clock in the evening
Before returning here, Cecilia had already instructed people back hto investigate Nathaniel.
She knew he was overseas managing a project and was due to return soon, but she hadn't expected him to be
back this quickly!
Four years had passed, and even though she had gradually let go, the thought of having to actively approach
this man again filled her heart with an extraordinarily complex mix of emotions.
In the evening, at nine o'clock, the charity gala officially commenced.
A person of power and influence like Nathaniel had a private room all to himself. He didn’t need to bid
personally; that task was taken care of by an assistant or a secretary.
On the second floor, Nathaniel sat in the VIP room, immaculately dressed in a crisp suit. His eyes, cold and as
dark as obsidian, watched the charity auction taking place downstairs dispassionately.
The reason he chere today was for a necklace.
It had previously been left at the Smith family residence by Cecilia, and afterward, Paula and Magnus sold it off
for a pittance overseas. Now, it had somehow found its way back.
Over the years, he had never missed any news about Cecilia, no matter what it was.
After several consecutive auction items, it was quickly the Trapiche emerald necklace’s turn, with a starting bid
of ten million.
Nathaniel’s secretary promptly raised a sign. “Twenty million.”
The people present o
help but gasp at how the price suddenly doubled. Many of the wealthy individuals had seen Nathaniel’s secretary
before.
Hence, everyone knew full well that they couldn’t afford to offend Nathaniel,
Just when everyone thought that the necklace would go to Nathaniel, an unexpected turn of events occurred.
A stunning woman, almost enchantingly beautiful, raised a sign. Thirty million.”
For a moment, everyone held their breath, not because her bid was high, but because she had the audacity to
vie for something that Nathaniel desired.
Over the past few years, Nathaniel
had becincreasingly ruthless.
