NovelEnglishChapter 145 Rotten To The Core
In the afternoon, Vivian rushed over upon learning that Cecilia was hospitalized.
Nathaniel was not here.
Vivian's heart ached with sympathy as she saw Cecilia covered in red spots.
“How stupid can you be? Why would you eat something you obviously can’t?”
“Don’t worry. I've checked on this before. The allergy isn’t too severe. It’s not life-threatening,” the latter
assured.
“That's bullsh*t! It’s not like | don’t know how fatal seafood allergies can be! If you ever do this again, I'll...”
Vivian paused, unsure of how to threaten Cecilia. “I'll give myself an allergic reaction too.”
The woman in bed laughed.
“I'm not lying to you. My symptoms are just especially obvious, but they're really not life- threatening. Besides,
how could | possibly be so flippant about my own life now that | have Eli and Jon?”
Vivian was bewildered. “Then why would you put yourself through that?”

“Nathaniel’s always been wary of me. He also hates me. | don’t know what | need to do for him to let his guard
down.”
Every tshe arrived at the final step, he would stop her.
“So, the only solution I could think of was to make him feel guilty.”
Cecilia continued, “I was so stupid back then, keeping everything to myself. | made him think. that | was living a
good life by his side and that | was the one reaching for someone out of my league. Now, | want him to know
how much I've suffered because of him.”
This was also why she held back her anger after overhearing Nathaniel saying those things to another woman
yesterday.
“That's also why I have to give him back the money that I tricked out of Mdm. Paula and Magnus.”
Cecilia knew that her little schemes were never a match for what Nathaniel was capable of.
With that in mind, she decided to maintain the facade of her former self. The only difference now was that she
intended to make it abundantly clear to Nathaniel how well she used to treat him, and how poorly he treated her
in return.
Vivian understood her intentions.
“You're pushing yourself too much, Ceci.”
“Don’t let Jon find out about what happened. He'll worry,” Cecilia cautioned.
“Okay, | won't Seeing that it was getting late, the woman in bed suggested that Vivian should head hfirst.
On her way out, the latter unexpectedly ran into Nathaniel, who was walking in her direction.
The man carried himself with an upright posture. His features were deep-set and sharp, exuding an air of
nobility. His entire presence was filled with an undeniable aura of refinement.
Vivian had seen him before on the news, However, it was only when she met him in person that she understood
why Jonathan was so extraordinary.
The apple really doesn’t fall far from the tree.
He looks so good, but it's a shhis heart's rotten to the core.
“Mr. Rainsworth, you probably don’t know me, but I'm Ceci’s friend,” Vivian began. her gaze steady on him. “I
have a favor to ask. Please, be kind to Ceci. She doesn’t owe you anything!”
Originally, Nathaniel did not know her.
However, after previously ordering an investigation on Cecilia, he had also incidentally looked into this woman
and thus remembered her appearance.

“Instead of meddling in our affairs, you'd be better off focusing on your studies, so you won't get caught again.”
His lips barely moved as he spoke.
Vivian was taken aback.
Is he talking about the t| got locked up?
Ugh! He’s so annoying!
She was absolutely infuriated.
With that, Nathaniel entered the ward, leaving her unable to reach him again.
Vivian was now certain that Jonathan was truly his son. At times, their ability to tick others off with their words
was strikingly similar.
Now, her only hope was for Jonathan not to turn into an evil, cunning man like Nathaniel.
When Vivian got into the car, she didn’t expect a little head to pop out.
“Ms. Kennedy! How is my mommy?” Jonathan asked anxiously.
Vivian jumped in astonishment. “Aren’t you supposed to be in kindergarten?”
