Chapter 1046

Cecelia said with a serious tone, "Michal, it's you? What a surprise it is

that you would call me. I've been looking for an opportunity to visit you,

and I just can't find the right chance. I'm really sorry. I met Karl in

Khebury four years ago. Time flies, and he is now already a grownup.

Excellent talker and sharp thinker. You have raised him so well."

Cecelia took the initiative to ramble on.

Michal laughed over the phone, “You are too kind. We are relatives

anyhow, and I have not visited you all these years, and I feel so bad

about that.”

"Michal, how have you been?" Cecelia asked in a soft voice.

“I'm fine. I'm calling you today to tell you some good news." Michal was

in a very good mood.

"Oh, what's that?" Cecelia raised her voice, slightly excited.

"My son is getting married, and I'm calling you to ask when it will be

convenient for you. I'll send you an invitation and pay you a visit on the

way." Michal said happily.

"Really? Is Karl getting married?" Cecelia got up from her chair, "Great,

best wishes from the bottom of my heart. Which girl is it?"

"You should have heard of her. She is Senator Sanchez's daughter,

Juanita, the current secretary general of the municipal government,”

Michal introduced.

"What a great thing it is! When is the wedding then? I'll be there for

sure." Cecelia's brow arched in relief. It had been a long time since she

had heard such good news. Michal was married to Chief Justice

Chester Gregory, and her son Karl was a leading figure in the legal

profession. And now he was marrying Senator Sanchez's daughter.

What a match was that!

"Next month. Cecelia, when would it be convenient for you? I'll send

you an invitation.” Michal asked.

“I would feel terrible to ask you to come all the way. Michal, I'd like to go

to the Cole residence and meet with you.” Cecelia asked.

After Mia was married into the Heath family, she suffered a hemorrhage

during childbirth and died. The Cole family destroyed all their

belongings and forbade any further mention of Mia, fearing that they

would miss her.

As a daughter-in-law, Cecelia had always wanted to repair the

relationship in her heart.

Rodney was dead, and if she could bring the two families back

together, she believed Rodney would be relieved if he could know that.

"Sure." Michal agreed readily, "I'm at the Cole residence this afternoon

and have some things to set up, so you can just come over. I'll have

afternoon tea ready for you. Are you free this afternoon?"

"No problem, I know the address. See you at three." Cecelia smiled.

"Okay, I won't see you." Michal then hung up the phone.

After Cecelia ended the call, she left the office and drove back to the

Military Staff House.

To meet Michal in the afternoon, she needed to change out of the

military uniform she was wearing and put on a proper outfit.

When she returned home and pushed open the door, Charlotte was

lying inside the living room couch watching TV.

Charlotte was a little surprised by Cecelia's sudden return. Usually at

this time Cecelia would not be home.

She got up and asked, "Mom, why are you back?"

Cecelia went into the kitchen and brought the soup to Charlotte, saying,

“You're pregnant, you have to know how to take care of yourself. Why

is this bowl of soup still in the kitchen? You should remember to drink it

every day."
