Chapter 84 Mom, I’m sorry! The tomb of Nicola Wright
Cecilia even thought that since Sean was in prison for rape, he must have a bad track record in
relationships. And now that she was engaged to him, would his ex-girlfriends know it and come
knocking on her door?
Damn it!
Cecilia silently cursed Sean, then stood up bravely and said, “I’ll go down and have a look.”
Lilith Carter said with a smile, “I’ll go with you.”
“There’s no need.”
Cecilia shook her head and said, “It’s my business. I can handle it myself.”
If that was what she thought, Cecilia didn’t want anyone else to see it.
“But I’m your secretary.”
Lilith Carter said with a smile, “Like I said this morning, big or small, business, or personal, if it has
something to do with you, it has something to do with me. Then it’s necessary for me to ask about it.”
“You!”
Cecilia stared at Lilith Carter for a long time, thinking, “A secretary? And you know you’re my
secretary?”
Was there a secretary who dared to talk to CEO like that?
You were bossier than I was!
How about I let you be the CEO?
“Miss Moore, don’t you look at me like that.”
Lilith Carter was not stupid. She naturally saw Cecilia’s displeasure, but she kept a charming smile on
her face and explained, “I need to take care of any problems you have, anytime, anywhere, and do
everything I can to keep you safe. These are also what Mr. Campbell told me before I came.”
“I was just following orders, doing my job. Please understand and forgive me.”
Following orders!
Again!
Cecilia was now somewhat suspicious of the motives of the Campbell family in Crane Town. There was
no such thing as a free lunch. It seemed that the Campbell family of The Crane Town inexplicably
helped her to the position of president, perhaps not to help her, but to take advantage of her!
Protection?
Lilith Carter’s overprotection made Cecilia feel like she was being watched!
This felt suck!
“Whatever!”
Cecilia snorted and turned away.
Lilith Carter followed.
The two of them walked out of the Moore Group’s building together. In the small square outside the
building, they saw the women Lilith Carter was talking about, and the Mulsanne.
Not surprisingly, Cecilia didn’t know any of these women!
Even the Mulsanne, she had never seen it before. It was not at all like she thought. It was not the same
car Sean bought yesterday afternoon!
Sean’s was jewel-black, and this one was grey!
“And you are?”
Cecilia walked over, confused
“You are Miss Cecilia Moore, wife of Mr. Sean Mason, right?”
The leading woman looked at Cecilia carefully several times, then smiled and held out her hand,
introducing herself, “Hello, Miss Moore, we are sales staff of Bentley 4S Shop. I am Ms. Lee, the sales
manager of the shop. These two are our shop assistants.”
“Hello.”
Cecilia politely shook Hands with Ms. Lee. It looked like these women weren’t Sean’s ex-girlfriends,
which was a bit of a relief. She then asked, “What is it you came to see me about?”
Whether it was an illusion or not, Cecilia felt that the two salesgirls behind Ms. Lee were looking at her
in a strange way.
“Here’s the thing.”
Ms. Lee quickly explained, “Mr. Mason bought you a car from our store. And it is this gray Mulsanne.
He told us to bring the car to you and use your ID card to purchase the car.”
“But a car?”
For a moment, Cecilia’s eyes widened. She looked at Ms. Lee and then at Mulsanne next to her.
He bought a Mulsanne yesterday afternoon, and he bought another one this afternoon?
As far as she knew, Mulsanne cost about $6.2 million!
Why?
“Yes.”
Ms. Lee turned and took a folder from the clerk behind her and handed it to Cecilia, saying, “Mr. Mason
has already paid for you. All you need to do is sign on the car purchase agreement and let us use your
ID card to handle relevant procedures for you on the spot.”
“He paid for that?”
Cecilia was shocked again.
$6.2 million for a Mulsanne. And two, that was 12.4 million!
Sean, a rapist who just got released from the Hilshire Detention Center yesterday morning, was he that
rich?
Before, she thought Sean saved his money before he went to prison.
Now, she didn’t think so.
More than ten million! Damn! The average person probably could not save so much money in a
lifetime!
Even Cecilia, no matter how slow she was, realized that Sean’s background was more than met the
eye!
Even the fact that he was in prison in the first place might well have other reasons!
After all, how could a spendthrift man with so much money rape?
Did he need to rape?
In this materialistic and money-oriented society, when Sean took out his bank card and swiped it, he
would instantly be awash with beautiful women trying to get into his bed.
Rape?
Now that she thought about it, it was a big joke!
Even Lilith Carter, who was standing behind Cecilia, was surprised by Ms. Lee’s words, thinking,
“That’s interesting. Miss Moore’s husband seems to be very unusual. Perhaps all Mr. Campbell’s
arrangements were not for Miss Moore, but for Sean Mason!
“Miss Moore?”
Ms. Lee called out when Cecilia was stunned.
Cecilia came to her senses and asked, “Can I return it now?”
6.2 million! It was too extravagant and wasteful for Cecilia, who had been frugal for five years. Even if
she were to buy a car, it would never cost more than $300,000 according to her previous budget!
Plus, she and Sean just met yesterday morning. Although they were unwittingly engaged, they were
not officially married and had no emotional foundation. She didn’t want to spend Sean’s money again
and again in the name of his wife!
Sean spent nearly a million dollars shopping for her at the Ricky Mall yesterday. It had made her very
uneasy.
“Return? But…”Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
Ms. Lee’s hand shook and the folder nearly fell to the floor. The smile on her face froze and she said
awkwardly, “Mr. Mason paid the money. If you want to return it, we need Mr. Mason’s approval first.
Besides, the refund process in our shop is quite troublesome, I’m afraid…”
The implication was obvious. No refunding!
Absolutely not!
She finally ran into a big spender like Sean and she just did a very lucrative deal. How could she lose
that coveted commission that was so close at hand?
“Well then, fine.”
Cecilia had no choice but to take the folder and pen, sign her name on the car purchase agreement,
and then give Ms. Lee her ID card.
Ms. Lee and others worked on site with high efficiency.
In about ten minutes, it was all done.
It seemed that she was afraid that if she was not quick enough, Cecilia might ask for a refund again at
any moment.
“Miss Moore, thank you for your cooperation. The Mulsanne belongs to you now. Here are the car keys
for you. I wish you and your husband a happy life and a baby soon.”
Then she turned and walked away.
A baby?
Cecilia blushed a little and noticed that the two salesgirls looked at her even more strangely as they
left, as if they wanted to say something to her but could not.
She was right!
Just a few meters away, the two salesgirls couldn’t help whispering to each other, “Mr. Mason’s wife is
very beautiful and has a nice figure. As president of the Moore Group, she’s not stuck-up at all. Her
husband bought her a car and she thought it was too expensive and wanted to return it…”
They couldn’t stop raving about Cecilia!
“Unfortunately, Mr. Mason is a true philandering man despite his wealth. He’s got a great wife at home,
and he’s cheating on girls, even clerks like Cornelia.”
“A playboy!”
They were so critical of Sean!
I wonder how Sean would feel if he heard that. How wronged he was!
Cecilia watched them leave, the keys to the Mulsanne in hand, and it took her a long time to recover.
Then she took out her phone, looked over her shoulder at Lilith Carter and asked, “I’m calling my
husband. Is Miss Carter gonna sit in?”
“Take your time, Miss Moore. I got something to do. I got to go.”
Lilith Carter smiled awkwardly and walked away wisely, thinking to herself, “Someday, I have to meet
that Sean Mason…”
…
Sean and his team were already at the foot of Mint Mountain in the western suburbs of Hilshire when
Cecilia called.
Mint Mountain was not very high, only about 1,000 meters above sea level.
Peace Cemetery was in Mint Mountain. It was opposite the Green Spring River, which was surrounded
by mountains and waters.
“Hi, honey.”
Sean picked up his pace, leaving Leo and others behind.
“Where are you now?”
Cecilia’s voice is indignant, “Let me ask you something. Why did you leave me alone at noon? Did you
know that the Moore Group was being acquired by the Campbell Family of The Crane Town?”
“And why are you buying me a car? And with that expensive Mulsanne?”
A series of questions bombarded him.
Cecilia was clearly full of questions.
“You’re my wife. I’m buying my wife a car. What’s the problem?”
Sean was secretly relieved that Cecilia’s phone call wasn’t about Phyllis’s disappearance. He forced a
smile and said, “As for the Moore Group, I’ll explain to you when I get back.”
“Explain?”
Cecilia said angrily, “So, you’re admitting that you knew, right? What was your relationship with the
Campbell family of Crane Town? Were you behind their sudden acquisition of the Moore Group and
their offer to replace me as president?”
Originally, Sean wanted to surprise Cecilia by hiding it from her.
Now, she was clearly scared.
She was smart enough to suspect Sean’s relationship with the Campbell family of the Crane Town just
because Sean left suddenly and bought a new Mulsanne.
It seemed he couldn’t hide it...
But it was only twenty minutes to five. The enemy was here, and the three families should be here
soon, so it was not the time to explain this.
Sean said quietly, “I’m not getting a good signal, but I will give you a satisfactory answer when I get
home tonight.”
With that, he simply hung up and turned off the phone.
Phyllis has been kidnapped and whether she was still alive was uncertain. Morton Miller denied it, and
there was no news from Luke Young. Sean was in a mess.
When Cecilia got home from work and found out Phyllis was missing, Sean would have more to explain
to her than just the Moore Group if he couldn’t find Phyllis now.
Phyllis was Cecilia’s everything!
In Cecilia’s eyes, the Moore Group was nothing compared to Phyllis’s safety.
Soon, Sean was at Mint Mountain’s midsection. He was standing in front of the Peace Cemetery. There
were rows and rows of tombstones in an orderly and solemn way.
Hundreds of them!
Sean took a deep breath and strode into the headstones. With keen eyes, he searched in rows and
looked at each stone.
A moment later, his eyes suddenly froze on one of the tombstones! A moment later, his eyes suddenly
froze on one of the tombstones!
The tombstone read, “Grave of Nicola Wright”!
And there was a picture of Nicola!
Sean took one look, and his steely eyes became tragically sad. His pupils were pinched, his eyes were
red, and tears began to flow in his eyes as if they were trying to break through his eyes.
But Sean held them back.
His fist was clenched, and he held it as hard as he could!
Then he dropped to his knees and fell hard in front of Nicola’s gravestone. His voice broke as he said,
“Mom! I’m sorry! I am the one who has troubled you!”
“Mom! I’m sorry! I couldn’t come here to see you till now!”
“Mom! I'm sorry! I have not yet avenged for you!”
His low roar is like a wolf’s roar!
Leo and his men walked Grayson Miller and Caleb Taylor into Peace Cemetery, not far from Sean.
When they saw this, they understood everything.
No wonder Sean caught Grayson Miller and Caleb Taylor, and called Morton Miller to meet up with the
three families.
So, he was to avenge that year!
For his mother!
He wanted to ask for justice for his mother in front of her gravestone!
Just, could Sean alone really fight against the three big families in the south of the city?
Leo and others’ hearts were trembling with worry.
“They are right upfront. Take him down!”
Suddenly, with a roar of rage, there was a jumbled sound of footsteps, from far to near. Leo and others
were startled, then they turned back and saw a large group of black bodyguards rushing over here
aggressively.
They looked like tigers. And there were over a hundred!
Sean heard the noise and knew the three families had arrived. Instead of looking back, he knelt in front
of Nicola’s gravestone and said quietly, “Mom, please open your eyes and watch over here!”
“Today, I offer their blood and lives in honor of your soul!”
Then he wiped away his tears and stood up!
