When Her “Death” Couldn’t Break Him 

Chapter 1714 Barely Hanging On 

Vivian had to admit–Cecilia had a point.

Cecilia pressed on, “Didn’t you say before that when Nathaniel hurt me in the past, I left while I was pregnant? And now, both of my kids still need a father. Besides, Zachary isn’t anything like Nathaniel was back then.” 

Vivian nodded. “Yeah… I’ll think about it before telling them. I want to see how Zachary reacts first.” 

“All right.” 

After talking to Vivian, Cecilia went in for her follow–up. 

Outside, Zachary turned to Vivian. “What were you and Cecilia talking about?” 

“Why is a man prying into women’s conversations?” Vivian shot back, shutting him down with a single 

sentence. 

Zachary sighed in exasperation. “Why are you acting so strange lately? Did I do something to upset you?” 

Vivian hesitated. “No… you’re overthinking it.” 

The truth was, ever since she got pregnant, her emotions had been all over the place, and she was having a hard time controlling them. 

“If you’re feeling unwell, you should get checked out at the hospital,” Zachary suggested gently. 

“There’s no need,” Vivian said, shaking her head. 

Seeing her insistence, Zachary let the matter drop. He turned his attention to Nathaniel. “Nathaniel.” 

Nathaniel merely grunted in acknowledgment, his eyes fixed on the entrance of the examination room. 

“Don’t worry,” Zachary said after a brief pause. “Cecilia seems to be in good spirits. She must be recovering well.” Then, lowering his voice, he added, “Also, congratulations.” 

Nathaniel narrowed his eyes. “Congratulations for what?” 

“You haven’t heard?” Zachary looked surprised. “The news online–Queenie announced she transferred all her assets to Cecilia.” 

Zachary leaned in. “With Queenie’s condition, things are bound to change drastically within a year or two. It’s not just Tudela that’ll be completely reshaped.” 

Nathaniel’s eyes darkened, catching the key detail in Zachary’s words. “You said she only has a year or two left?” 

Zachary blinked, caught off guard. “You didn’t know?” 

“Explain. What happened?” Nathaniel’s tone turned serious. 

The hallway wasn’t the place for such a discussion, so the two men stepped into the office and shut the door. Once inside, Zachary retrieved a medical report from his drawer and handed it to Nathaniel. “I had a hard time getting this.”

Afterwards, Shen Ze retrieved a medical prescription from his drawer and handed it over to Lu Nan Chen. 

The Sinclair family had pharmaceutical businesses all over Tudela, and since Queenie was receiving treatment here, Zachary had managed to get his hands on her medical records.
