Adrian paced back and forth. "Miranda, do you think Nathaniel might have found out about something? Otherwise, why would he suddenly disappear with Cecilia?"

Seeing him so scared, Miranda decided to go with the flow.

"Hubby, I think Nathaniel is bound to find out what happened to you and Cecilia. Whether it's today or tomorrow, the result will be the same."

"So, what should I do?" Adrian's heart raced.

Miranda tapped her fingers on the table. "I think there's only one way."

"What's the plan?"

"To take Nathaniel down."

"How is that even possible?" Adrian thought Miranda's words were completely absurd.noveldrama

Back when Nathaniel was blind, Adrian couldn't compete with him.

Now that Nathaniel was powerful, influential, and in good health, Adrian wouldn't dare act recklessly. Miranda was furious at his lack of courage. "Hubby, how can you have no confidence in yourself? Let me tell you, in families like ours, if you don't dare to make a move against him, then he'll make a move against you. Do you want Felix to spend his life working under Jonathan? If Jonathan doesn't like him, he might not even survive."

She continued to persuade him. "Now that Dad is back, we're not alone. If you can't deal with Nathaniel, can't you target his four children instead? Find a way to get rid of those four kids, and then the Rainsworth family will belong solely to Felix."

Hearing these words, Adrian was utterly shocked.

His pupils dilated. "Are you joking? If Nathaniel finds out about something like that, I'll be as good as dead!"

Seeing his reaction, Miranda decided to use her trump card.

"If Nathaniel finds out what you did today, you'll also die. You can decide for yourself." With that, she returned to the bedroom.

Adrian sat alone in the living room, completely dazed.

What does that mean? What did she mean by saying that if Nathaniel were to find out, I'd also die?

His heart pounded wildly, and he couldn't come up with a plan. At the same time, he was mulling over the feasibility of Miranda's words.

Back at the hotel, Nathaniel had sent everyone away and returned to the room. He lay down and naturally pulled Cecilia into his arms.

Held by him, Cecilia didn't dare open her eyes and continued pretending to be asleep.

Perhaps she was too exhausted for she soon fell asleep for real.

The next morning, sunlight streamed into the room.

Cecilia slowly opened her eyes and found herself still tightly held by Nathaniel. She looked up and saw that the man was sound asleep. She tried to quietly slip out of his arms.

However, Nathaniel woke up due to her movements. "You're up?"

His deep, magnetic voice made Cecilia freeze in place. She wanted to continue pretending to sleep, but it was too late.

"Mm." She nodded stiffly.

Nathaniel tightened his hold on her. "What was that about last night?"

Why was Cecilia so proactive the night before?

Cecilia's mind buzzed, and she feigned confusion. "What are you talking about?"

"Did something happen last night? I don't remember anything." Cecilia spoke each word deliberately, and Nathaniel's face visibly darkened.

"You don't remember anything?" His thin lips parted slightly as he grabbed her chin. "Are you sure?"

He remembered everything clearly. Cecilia's consciousness wasn't entirely gone last night.

Cecilia forced a smile. "Mm, I felt a little dizzy yesterday and honestly can't recall what happened."

Nathaniel stared at her face, sneering inwardly. Is she really going to act like nothing happened? "Fine, then I'll help you remember."
