ReadGoodChapter 1010 A Helping Hand The joy on Jessica's face was impossible to hide. She had always claimed that Nathaniel's affection for Cecilia wasn't genuine and that he was bound to divorce her. At that moment, things were unfolding exactly as she had predicted.
Cecilia led Elliot out of the study, coming face to face with Jessica.
Cecilia couldn't be bothered to wonder why Jessica had gone there at that moment. Taking Elliot's hand, she was ready to leave Daltonia Villa.
Jessica feigned concern, asking, "Cecilia, where are you going? It's quite late already." "It's none of your concern," Cecilia said coldly.
Jessica was thrilled. "It's normal for couples to argue. Don't run away from home. It's not good for the kids." Cecilia knew this woman wasn't sincere at heart, so she didn't bother with her anymore.

First, she went to pour a cup of hot water.
The housekeeper couldn't help but say, "Ms. Quill, lettake it up to Mr. Rainsworth instead." The housekeeper had cto realize that Jessica was not a good person at all. She had always looked down on them, the working class, from the very beginning.
At that moment, Nathaniel and Cecilia were arguing. As the housekeeper, she felt obligated to support Cecilia, who had always treated her well. She also had to keep an eye on other women for the sake of the adorable child, Elliot.
Unexpectedly, Jessica shot her a look of disdain and said, "Get lost. Who do you think you are? Can't you see there's going to be a new lady of the house?" The housekeeper choked up.
"Do you have no shame? Mrs. Rainsworth and Mr. Rainsworth are not even divorced yet. They also have children together." With a laugh, Jessica said, "Didn't you hear earlier? They're getting divorced tomorrow. I advise you not to meddle in affairs that aren't yours. Otherwise, once I becthe lady of the Rainsworth family, you'll be the first one I fire." After Jessica finished speaking, she forcefully pushed past the housekeeper and ascended the stairs.
Upon reaching the study, she stood outside and knocked on the door.
"Who is it?" Nathaniel asked deeply.
After what happened last time, Nathaniel couldn't possibly drink the water she poured.
Nathaniel sternly pushed her away with one hand. "Get out!" The water in Jessica's hand splashed all over the ground She, however, refused to leave. "Nathaniel, letstay and take care of you. I promise I won't upset you like Cecilia has done," she pleaded.
"Upset me?" Nathaniel chuckled. "Does druggingnot count?" If it hadn't been for the connection between the Quill and Rainsworth families, Jessica would have met her end countless times.
"I was not thinking straight that time. I dare not do it again," Jessica explained. "It's all because I like you too much. I just want to be by your side, not asking for anything else." Nathaniel was too weary to listen to her ramblings. Picking up his phone, he was about to call someone upstairs to usher her away.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTo his surprise, Jessica immediately said, "Nathaniel, Cecilia wouldn't just divorce you that easily, I can help you..." She felt that Cecilia simply couldn't bear to let go of an outstanding man like Nathaniel.
Upon hearing those words, Nathaniel put down his phone.
"Stay here tonight, and cwithto the City Hall tomorrow," he suggested.
"All right." Jessica promptly agreed.
Lucille was perplexed when Cecilia suddenly brought Elliot back to the Smith residence. "Cecilia, what's this all about?" Cecilia gave a casual smile, pretending to be at ease.
"Nothing much. It's just that I'll have to move in and live with you again." "That's great! Now I have someone to eat with in the future." As Lucille spoke, she simultaneously helped carry the luggage inside.
Cecilia arrived in a rush, and she didn't bring much with her. After al brief and simple tidying up, she took Elliot to rest.
Before going to sleep, she comforted Elliot, "Eli, divorce isn't the end of the world. Let's not be upset. After all, haven't we managed just fine without your daddy in the past?" X
