NovelEnglishChapter 868 Chapter 868 Jessica Finally Left "Someone is trying to tarnish my reputation," Jessica explained to Cecilia and Lucille.
The two of them had no interest in hearing her ramble on about such things.
Cecilia continued switching channels, munching on fruit while watching a TV series with Lucille.
Jessica's presence there seemed out of place. She was both frustrated and unwilling to accept the situation.
At that moment, her cell phone began to ring.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen Jessica picked up her phone, she was surprised to see that Fabian was calling.
She picked up the phone and was met with a barrage of reprimands on the other end. “Jessica Quill, you're supposed to take care of Nathaniel. What were you doing at Sinclair Manor? You're a disgrace to the family." Standing up, Jessica left the room before finally responding, "Grandpa, these are all just rumors.” "Rumors don't just appear out of nowhere. It must be your inability to handle the situation," Fabian stated coldly. Jessica lowered her head. "I'm sorry, Grandpa." He then abruptly changed the subject. "How are things with Nathaniel?” The relationship between the Quill and Rainsworth families had been growing increasingly distant. With the vast difference in their respective power and influence, Fabian knew that if the younger generation didn't make an effort to align themselves with the Rainsworth family, the Quills would struggle to maintain their status and influence.
Jessica didn't dare to tell the truth. "We need to handle this carefully; after all, Cecilia is still carrying his child." Fabian understood that as well. “Jessica, I'm not trying to make things difficult for you, but this is the perfect opportunity. With Cecilia being pregnant, you can finally get close to Nathaniel." Nicholas was already engaged to Cassandra, so the Quills' only hope lay with Nathaniel.
Fabian believed that Nathaniel's blindness and his reduced role as the head of the Rainsworth family would make it easier for Jessica to win him over.
After all, Jessica possessed both beauty and the ability to charm men.
"All right, Grandpa. You can rest assured that even if you hadn't reminded me, I would have done my best to handle this matter." "Okay." Only then did Fabian hang up the phone.
Cecilia and Lucille noticed Jessica start to pack her bag after receiving a call.
Jessica had led a tragic life. She lost her parents in a car accident at a young age and was constantly bullied by her cousins.
However, her misfortune didn't justify trying to snatch someone else's husband.
It wasn't a valid excuse for her to behave so maliciously. If she wanted to act out, she should seek revenge against those who had wronged her, not those who had never provoked her. Yet, Jessica didn't seem to understand this logic.
She pretended to pack/her bags, putting on a pitiful act as she said to Cecilia, “Cecilia, I'm leaving now. Please take care of yourself." "Goodbye," Cecilia responded nonchalantly.
Jessica dragged her suitcase behind her and left.

Somehow, Elliot sensed there was more to Jessica's departure than met the eye.
He was certain she would eventually return.
After Jessica left, the atmosphere in the room lightened considerably.
That night, Cecilia was finally able to rest peacefully and get a good night's sleep.
The next morning, after waking up and having breakfast, Cecilia received a call from the hospital.
The call was from the agency handling the DNA test. “Hi, is this Ms. Smith? In an instant, Cecilia put her guard up. "Yes."
"The results of the DNA test you submitted are now rea you to ready. We need cin person to collect them."
"All right," Cecilia replied, and after hanging up the phone she headed to the hospitab her heart heavy with unease.
Lonce The hospital had a specialized DNA testing agency, and once she arrived, the staff handed her the results. "Ms. Smith, here is your test report." Cecilia thanked the staff and the report. began revie X
