When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Upon hearing this, Nicholas fell silent.

Good Care Of Nathaniel

Cecilia pleaded with him, “Please, let me see him.”

She was genuinely worried about Nathaniel, who was reduced to that state, and had already made mind. If Nicholas refused to let her see Nathaniel, she’d turn to Elena.

After all, Elena was the children’s grandmother. She’ll probably allow me to see Nathaniel.

“All right, but you must be careful,” Nicholas finally conceded.

“I will.” Cecilia nodded.

He added, “I’ll go with you after work. His situation is quite unstable right now; he has attacked almost all the housekeepers caring for him.”

“Okay, thanks. I’m going to work,” said Cecilia.

“All right.”

Nicholas watched her leave. Once she was out of sight, he called one of the housekeepers, asking her about Nathaniel’s current state.

The servant informed him that Nathaniel was still irritable and volatile, lashing out for no reason. Jessica was beaten by him and had filthy water poured all over her.

Nicholas asked, “Is the doctor there now?”

“Mr. Nathaniel just fell asleep, and the doctor is currently examining him,” the housekeeper replied.

“All right, keep me updated with any news,” he said.

“Understood.”

Nicholas ended the call.

When the workday ended in the evening, he took Cecilia to the manor.

Before they arrived, he received a call from the manor’s butler, informing him that Elena was there, too.

Nicholas frowned. “Why didn’t you tell me earlier?”

“We had no idea she’d come, and we couldn’t stop her. The butler paused before continuing, “However, we did administer a sedative to Mr. Nathaniel. He won’t wake up for another hour or two.”

Just to be on the safe side, Nicholas informed the maner’s butler that without his permission, anyone who came to visit Nathaniel should be treated with caution.

He still couldn’t believe that Nathaniel had truly lost his mind and worried that, deep down, he might still be lucid enough to find a way out.

“Be careful in the future.” With that, Nicholas ended the call.

Cecilia, sitting next to him, couldn’t hear what the butler said on the other end.

Nicholas said to her, “Mom is there too. Do you want to go see him after she leaves?”

“All right.” Cecilia nodded. She didn’t want to complicate things further and cause Elena to overthink.

Meanwhile, Elena was gazing at Nathaniel, who was lying unconscious on the bed. She couldn’t help but furrow her brows. “He won’t wake up no matter what?”Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

The butler fibbed, “The doctor has examined Mr. Nathaniel and said it’s a post–surgery symptom. If you’re busy and need to leave, we can notify you once he wakes up. Would that be all right?”

Elena didn’t respond, instead placing her hand on Nathaniel’s forehead, her eyes filled with concern.

Her eldest son had always had a smooth sailing life since childhood. However, she never expected that at this age, he would continually face hardships.

She left the room and saw Jessica and a group of housekeepers waiting downstairs.

At a glance, Elena noticed the injury on Jessica’s face. “Old Mr. Rainsworth told me you’re willing to care for Nathaniel, that you don’t mind his condition, and are even thinking about marrying him?”

Jessica’s face still throbbed with pain, and the wound on her forehead had only just stopped bleeding. The memory of Nathaniel’s crazed behavior left her conflicted. After a long pause, she still couldn’t manage to say a word.

“What’s wrong? Are you regretting it?” Elena asked, displeased.

“No…” Upon seeing Elena’s anger, Jessica immediately denied it.

Such injuries are nothing as long as I can marry into the Rainsworth family.

“I’m willing to take good care of Nathaniel, and I absolutely won’t abandon him,” said Jessica.

For Elena, it didn’t matter who became her daughter–in–law, as long as they could support Nathaniel and treat him well.
