When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 1022

Chapter 1022 Cassandra Falls
The rabbit figurine simply fell to the ground.

“Oh! My apologies... It slipped out of my hand,” Cassandra said, feigning innocence.

Cecilia stepped forward, moving to pick up the figurine.

Cassandra lifted her foot, ready to step on her hand.

Quickly, Cecilia reached out and held Cassandra's high heel.

In an instant, Cassandra lost her balance. With a slight push from Cecilia, Cassandra found herself falling and landing on her behind.

“Ah!” she screamed sharply, hastily clutching her stomach.

Casually, Cecilia picked up the rabbit figurine that had fallen on the ground, dusting it off before saying to Cassandra, “I'm sorry. I accidentally bumped into your foot earlier. Are you okay?”

She returned the rabbit figurine to its original spot, her gaze toward Cassandra was filled with indifference, showing no intention of engaging with her.

Cassandra fell to the ground and glared at Cecilia.

“Accidental? You did it on purpose. I'm carrying the heir to the Rainsworth family in my belly.”

After she finished speaking, she picked up her phone and dialed Nicholas' number. “Nicholas, hurry over. Cecilia pushed me down, and I can't get up at all. I'm really scared.”

Cecilia watched her performance with a serene gaze, not a ripple of emotion showing in her eyes. She started it!

Just a moment ago, Cassandra deliberately dropped Cecilia's figurine and even tried to step on Cecilia's hand. If Cecilia continued to swallow her anger and allowed herself to be manipulated, it would be too cowardly.

Ever since overcoming depression, Cecilia had come to understand an important principle. She had learned to defend herself. If anyone crossed her, she would certainly give them a taste of their own medicine.

“Cecilia, just you wait!” Cassandra hung up the phone, extremely satisfied.

“We're both pregnant, and the hormones we produce during pregnancy can lead to hypoglycemia and dizziness. Ms. Evans, you really ought to be more careful. Look at how agitated you're getting. It could affect the baby's development,” Cecilia said as if it was nothing out of the ordinary.

Cassandra initially planned to exploit the situation, hoping Nicholas would grow to resent Cecilia. However, to her surprise, Cecilia managed to defuse the tension with just a few words.

Cecilia made a point to step forward. “Are you okay? I just called an ambulance. It should be here any minute now.”

Cassandra's face contorted in an instant. “Nicholas, she's lying! Fire her immediately!”

Nicholas observed Cassandra, who was full of vitality, and said gently, “Cassandra, our priority right now is to get to the hospital and check on the child. We can discuss everything else later.”

Cassandra hadn't expected that Nicholas would openly favor Cecilia in front of her, making her expression even more unpleasant.

“Fine! If anything happens to my child, she'll pay with her life!”
