Cecilia leaned against the back of the couch and curled up on it, longing to find someone to talk to. 

Unfortunately, she didn’t have anyone to talk to. 

An image of Nathaniel’s face surfaced in her mind, but she quickly brushed it away. 

We’re already divorced…. 

Time crawled by painfully slowly, and sleep refused to come. Reaching for her phone, she unlocked it, only to find no new messages. A wave of sadness washed over her as she scrolled through her contacts, stopping unintentionally on Nathaniel’s name. Before she knew it, her fingers moved on their own, dialing his number. 

Meanwhile, at a private hospital, Nathaniel was preparing for surgery the next day. The sound of his phone ringing grated on his nerves. He suppressed the urge to answer it and ultimately decided to hang 

1. up. 

On the other end, Cecilia stared at the disconnected call, feeling utterly defeated. Without a second thought, she added Nathaniel to her blacklist. 

Nathaniel was unaware of the passing of Cecilia’s mother. He lay in his hospital bed, filled with fear and fervently praying for the surgery to be successful. 

He yearned to see again, to start over with Cecilia. 

Mason found out about Paula’s demise but chose not to share this news with Nathaniel considering his impending surgery the next day. 

In an effort to make money, Magnus organized a grand funeral for Paula. 

“Cecilia, you have to come. She’s your mother, after all. It wouldn’t be right for her daughter to miss the funeral,” Magnus urged sincerely over the phone, striving to persuade her. 

“I understand. I’ll be there on the last day,” Cecilia said. 

After Paula’s obituary was released, many people became aware of her passing, and it was also reported in 

the news. 

Only then did Vivian learn about Paula’s death. Worried about Cecilia, she shared the news with George and, accompanied by Jonathan, headed toward the Smith residence. 

“Why didn’t you tell me about this, Ceci?” Vivian asked upon seeing Cecilia. 

Anyone who knew Cecilia well understood how deeply she once cared for Paula. Vivian was certain that Cecilia was struggling to cope with Paula’s passing. 

With a calm demeanor, Cecilia asked Jonathan to go play with Elliot and then turned to Vivian, saying. “You know as well as I do that there’s little affection between us.” 

“That’s true,” Vivian said, concern evident in her voice. But to the outside world, you’re her daughter. Now that she’s passed away and you’re pregnant, how are you going to manage her funeral?”

ends up bearing the burden. 

“I’ve already handed it over to Magnus. I will go to the funeral site on the last day,” Cecilia said.

“All right.” Vivian was actually a bit concerned about people gossiping about Cecilia. “I’ll go with you when 

the time comes.” 

If anyone from the Escobar family dared to badmouth Cecilia, Vivian would stand up for her. 

“By the way, have you told Nathaniel yet?” 

Although Nathaniel and Cecilia had divorced, he was still once Paula’s son–in–law. 

A dejected look filled Cecilia’s eyes. “I called him today, but he hung up on me.” 

“What a sc*mbag!” Vivian exclaimed as she picked up her phone. “Give me his number. I’ll call him. His mother–in–law has passed away! He should be there.” 

“No need, Cecilia said, gently holding Vivian’s hand. “I’m already divorced from him. There’s no point in bothering him anymore. 

“But 

Vivian felt that since they had just divorced and had children together, Nathaniel should at least offer some help. 

“Don’t worry. Magnus will take care of it,” she assured. 

After Regas‘ death, it was Magnus who took charge of the funeral arrangements. While he may not have been skilled at running a company or making money, he had no trouble managing these details. 

Vivian sighed. “Fine. Life is so unpredictable. She brought this upon herself.”
