Chapter 1240 Consider Remarrying Nathaniel
In her quest to expose Cecilia, Cassandra once again obtained the hospital’s surveillance footage. Additionally, she managed to acquire recordings from outside the hospital. She sent everything to Brooklyn, who resided in Droever.
Brooklyn, Queenie’s younger sister, was not someone to be trifled with.
There was no one whose reputation she couldn’t ruin if she chose to take action against them.
Moreover, Cassandra was convinced of her suspicions that Cecilia was wicked.
Meanwhile, Cecilia finally returned home, feeling utterly exhausted.
Suddenly, she was greeted by three excited women.
“Ceci, thank you so much! How did you know I liked this necklace?” Lucille asked.
“Tm finally getting a chance to see my idol! Thank you, Boss! I love you!” Charlotte exclaimed.
Madeline, carrying her child, added, “Ceci, thank you for arranging a dedicated nanny for Amy.”
Cecilia was momentarily at a loss for words. But I didn’t prepare any of the things they mentioned….
As someone who disliked taking credit for others‘ deeds, she clarified, “I didn’t prepare those gifts.”
Everyone looked puzzled. “Who could it be if it’s not you? They’re all under your name, though.”

Just then, Lucille’s phone began to vibrate. She picked it up and saw a message from Mason. Instantly, she understood what this was all about. “It was Nathaniel.7
Mason was afraid they might not accept the gifts if he told them they were from Nathaniel. Therefore, he instructed the delivery team to inform them that Cecilia was the one who made the arrangements.
With that, all three of them accepted the gifts without hesitation.
A baffled expression appeared on Cecilia’s face; she couldn’t comprehend what game Nathaniel was playing.
Charlotte looked at Cecilia with wide eyes. “Boss, is he trying to win us over just because he wants to make amends with you?”
Both Lucille and Madeline also believed that this must be the reason.
“Forget it. We don’t need these gifts. We’ll return them Madeline remarked.
She didn’t want her best friend to dive back into that problematic marriage. Being single is kind of nice too!
Though Charlotte was somewhat reluctant, she still said, “Boss, if you don’t want to get back with him, we’ll turn down his gifts.”
“When I have enough money, I can buy this necklace myself anyway,” Lucille added.

Chapter 1240 Consider Remarrying Nathaniel

“It’s all right. You don’t need to return it. Since you’ve already accepted it, let’s not make a fuss over money. These gifts aren’t going to put a dent in Nathaniel’s wallet anyway.” Ever since her brush with death, Cecilia had come to understand that it was okay to be a little selfish.
She recognized that an excessive preoccupation with others could often result in one’s own detriment.
“Are you sure about this?” Charlotte asked, her eyes brimming with anticipation, yet wary of placing Cecilia in a difficult situation.
Madeline chimed in quickly, “Ceci, we don’t want to put you in a tough spot. I can always hire an early childhood teacher myself.”
Cecilia offered a reassuring pat on her shoulder. “I’m fine; there’s no need to worry. If Nathaniel chooses to send gifts in the future, please feel free to accept them. It’s essentially free money. There’s no reason to refuse
After all, no one in their right mind would turn down an offer of gifts and money.
Upon hearing Cecilia’s words, the women finally accepted the gifts with a sense of relief.
While Charlotte and Lucille were taking a bath, Madeline, somewhat concerned for Cecilia, took a seat next to her. “Have you considered remarrying Nathaniel?”
Stunned for a moment, Cecilia fell silent before shaking her head. “No.”
Although Madeline no longer wished to be with Darren, she understood the importance of not standing in the way of someone else’s happiness. “I sense you still have feelings for him. Why don’t you consider getting back together?”
Cecilia fell silent for a moment, contemplating the question. After a long pause, she finally replied, “Perhaps I still lack the confidence to enter into marriage again.”
