When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 1787

Chapter 1787 The Consequences
“Sigh, I never thought you'd end up like this.”

Miranda's words were laden with many different emotions.

She still remembered how Stella used to flaunt her status in front of Cecilia.

“Stella, do you still remember what you said back then in front of the reporters, Cecilia, and Nathaniel's friends? Didn't you say you would win Nathaniel back?”

The color drained from Stella's face in an instant.

“I... I was wrong,” she admitted, remorse clear in her voice. “I won't let my imagination run wild again, nor will I have a loose tongue.”

After she finished speaking, she looked at Miranda with eyes full of hope. “Ms. Miranda, I beg you, please help me. I just want to live a simple and peaceful life.”

Miranda was utterly disappointed in Stella, and without another word, she turned around and walked away.

“Ms. Miranda!” Stella was about to follow her when Miranda turned around and scolded her, “Stop following me, or you'll regret it!”

Stella's steps came to a halt.

With that, Miranda left the place, feeling increasingly unsettled within.

If Stella still had the fight in her, no matter how little, she could still be of help to Miranda, but as it turned out, the former was completely defeated.

Stella had become useless, a stark contrast to her past self, where she behave with impunity. Now, all she wanted was to lead a simple and peaceful life, making it impossible for Miranda to recruit her into her cause.

At that moment, Stella had returned to her room once again.

Inside her mansion, there was no electricity or running water.

The place was also about to be auctioned off.

In reality, the only thing Cecilia ever did to her was to ensure that all their business partners refused to collaborate with her.

As for the rest, it wasn't Cecilia's doing.

However, Stella was seized by irrational fear, constantly feeling that Cecilia would suddenly come to harm her. He also suspected that Zachary and Nathaniel were out to get her.

She was unaware that the current Zachary and Nathaniel simply didn't care about her, nor did they bother to concern themselves with her affairs.
