Chapter 1112 Impending Drama
“Ms. Smith?” Queenie was somewhat puzzled. “Which Ms. Smith?”
She was somewhat perplexed. Why did Orion Corporation send someone I don’t even know to handle such an important collaboration?
“It seems her name is Cecilia,” Cassina said.
Upon hearing Cecilia’s name, Queenie’s complexion immediately turned grim.
“Cecilia again?”
Cassina was startled by her sudden change of expression. “Wh–what about it?”
“Before this, Cecilia has always been bullying your sister, and now she’s turned her attention to you. She’s acting as if she’s the lady of the Rainsworth family,” Queenie said, her anger particularly palpable.
Cassandra, who was quietly observing from the side, added fuel to the fire. “Mom, perhaps it was because went for a prenatal checkup today. Cecilia saw that I wasn’t around and assumed that Cassie was a subordinate. That’s why…”.
How could Cassie possibly be a subordinate? She’s my daughter! Didn’t you tell her?” Queenie was even more upset.
Cassandra explained, “When I introduced Cecilia to her, I told her that Cassie is my younger sister. Now that you’ve said this, I feel like she’s just looking down on me.”
“It’s not you she’s looking down on; it’s the Jamieson family.”
Initially, Queenie had intended to stay in her lane, but now, she couldn’t bear it any longer.C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
“I’ll accompany you to Orion Corporation tomorrow, let’s see just how brazen she can be.”
“Alright, Mom.”
Cassandra was looking forward to seeing how Cecilia would suffer the next day.
Meanwhile, Cecilia was at the manor, simultaneously taking care of Nathaniel and working.
Previously, Miranda had been assigned several projects, and now she had managed to successfully negotiate a few more. Today, as usual, Adrian handed over more projects to Miranda.
Those projects were all the result of Cecilia’s old acquaintances while abroad.
“Boss,” Charlotte said over the phone, “when Miranda is close to sealing the deal, we’ll have the big shots pull out.”
“Right, it’s best to make them suffer some losses. Otherwise, Miranda will think I’m a pushover,” Cecilia said.
“Alright.”
At that moment, Cecilia had no idea that the next day, Queenie would come looking for her, making her
By the time she was done with work, it was already quite late.
Cecilia went to Nathaniel’s room as usual, but when she pushed the door open, there was no one in sight.
She immediately went out to ask the housekeeper, “Where’s Nathaniel?”
The housekeeper voiced her confusion. “Isn’t he in the room?”
Realizing the housekeeper was of no help, Cecilia began to search around by herself.
Yet, throughout the night, she was unable to locate Nathaniel. The butler, upon learning of Nathaniel’s disappearance, immediately called Nicholas.
Many people searched for Nathaniel but couldn’t find him.
“How did this happen? Where on earth did he go?” Nicholas’s face was filled with distress.
The butler stood before him, head bowed. “He stayed in the room all day, and there was no surveillance footage of him ever leaving.”
Without any hesitation, Nicholas knew that Nathaniel must have been taken away by someone.
Imust be either Mason or Zachary. Darn it, despite my precautions, I still wasn’t able to prevent it.
However, he had guessed wrong this time.
At that very moment, in the Faust residence hundreds of kilometers away, Darren was gently cradling a newborn, a child not even a month old, in one arm, while simultaneously posing questions to Nathaniel.
“Nathaniel, how are you feeling now?”
Nathaniel was seated on a medical device, slowly opening his eyes. His gaze focused on Darren. “I’m feeling much better now.”
“Should we invite Zachary and the others over?” Darren asked again.
“No rush. My situation is quite unstable at the moment If you let Zachary and Mason know that I’m with you, it won’t be long before Nicholas comes looking for me too.”
Nathaniel knew just what a maniac his younger brother could be.
In case something was amiss with his health, relying solely on Darren could potentially cost him his life.
