When her approach failed, she simply knelt down by the door. "Cecilia, if you won't letin, then I'll jus stay right here." "Suit yourself." Cecilia turned around and returned inside, where she then washed sfruit for herself. As she sliced the fruit, she ate it while lounging on the couch, browsing for new shows to watch.
Popular TV s allowed her to temporarily cast aside her troubles.
There wasn't anything interesting on TV. After flipping through a few channels, Cecilia stumbled upon the latest news.
The news reported that Evans Group experienced a significant drop in its stock price the week before. This week, it was revealed that the chairman, Ralph, had already sold all his shares. Now, Evans Group has been acquired by a new company, Imminence Corporation.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtImminence Corporation? Cecilia found herself mulling over the name, feeling as though she had heard it somewhere before. However, she was unable to recall where exactly she did.
While she was still deep in thought, the ringing of the phone interrupted her thoughts.
Cecilia casually took the call, it was from Magnus.
"Sis, have you seen the news? Ralph's company has collapsed." Magnus seemed quite agitated.
After all, Ralph refused to help him rebuild Smith Corporation and even went so far as to constantly mock and humiliate him.

If what Paula had said was true, then he was not her brother at all.
"Ralph had the audacity to say I couldn't run a company, yet his company got takeover by someone else. How laughable," Magnus remarked. Then, he asked Cecilia, “Nathaniel, has the Evans family compensated you yet?" "He compensated several hundred million." "That little? When 1 becpart of the Evans family, I brought them at least five to six billion, not to mention your dowry... Magnus rambled on.
Upon hearing this, Cecilia couldn't help but feel frustrated. "What's the point of saying all this now? This is still all because of your foolishness." Who in their right mind would transfer their assets to a complète stranded "I just did what Mom toldto. She used to say that Ralph was a good person and even claimed that I would inherit his wealth after his death. Who knew they would be so selfish, only caring about Cassandra?" Magnus was furious as he continued, “A few days ago, Mom called me, claiming she's really got cancer. She deserved it. Of all people, she really had it coming." Cecilia didn't want to discuss these matters with him.
"Do you have anything else to discuss?" "Huh? Nothing really. I just saw the news and thought of sharing it with you. Oh, by the way. I've been working with Nicholas recently. I'm earning my own money now," Magnus said gleefully.
Cecilia hadn't expected him to change so rapidly.
"You're able to rely on yourself now. That's great."

Magnus gazed at the disconnected call, a glimmer of coldness crossing his eyes.
"What a fool. I've made it so clear.
Nicholas is far better than the blind Nathaniel. Can't you see who tom choose? Magnas gripped his phone tightly: "If I were a woman, I wouldn't I have to curry favor with you." He hadn't changed at all and was merely trying to win over Nicholas by getting into Cecilia's good books. If Cecilia were to be with Nicholas, he would be set for a bright future.
Meanwhile, Cecilia set her phone aside, collapsing onto the couch in exhaustion for a brief rest.
She didn't know how much thad passed before a phone call jolted her awake again.
