Chapter 526
You Hit My Heart
Charlotte opened her mouth, but could not say a word. She purposely
transferred Ricky to the Capital, just to avoid unnecessary suspicion.
At the moment she didnât need Ricky back.
"Well, that's settled. No need to discuss.â
Cecelia was bold and decisive, and didnât give Charlotte another
chance to talk.
Charlotte swallowed her saliva and thought that it was actually not a big
deal to have him back, and that they just needed to be more careful.
The most important thing right now was that the engagement could
take place as scheduled.
"Okay." Charlotte's eyes were teary and she looked at Cecelia with pity.
"Hey." Cecelia sighed softly, "You stay in your room and lie still while I
go tell them.â
"Hmm." Charlotte nodded and looked at Cecelia's departing back, the
curve of her lips pulled up in a smug smile.
She knew that if she pretended to have a stomachache, she would be
able to get anything done, and that was a good move.
Cecelia, after all, valued her family the most.
Unfortunately, she could not see Rodney cremated with her own eyes.
Only when she saw that with her own eyes, she could be completely at
ease. However, he was dead, and what was it that she had to worry
about. What else could a dead man do?
She lay at ease and even took out her cell phone and cozied up to play
a little game.
Outside the door.
After Cecelia settled Charlotte down.
She walked over to Jacqueline and Shelly who were waiting outside.
Jacqueline looked a little embarrassed, âI'm sorry, Cecelia, we didn't
help and to add to your troubles. I'm really sorry.â
"How can I blame you? When something like this happens, no one can
expect it. Things happen and we must take care of ourselves." Cecelia
said, "I have discussed with Charlotte, her placenta is unstable, I want
to send her to the military hospital to rest for a week. We will not let her
go back to the Capital.â
"So, will it work? Charlotte stays, and I can take care of her instead.
Please don't worry about that." Jacqueline hurriedly assured.
âI am also relieved to have you guys take care of it. Forget it, the burial
is only a ceremony after all, the living is more important. These years, I
don't care about such things that much and have put aside many
obsessions." Cecelia said quietly, "It's settled. The engagement took
place as scheduled; Ralph and I will not attend. You can say that there
is an emergency in the military area, so we cannot come. We have to
be on call at all times anyway. I believe everyone will understand.â
"Well, I understand. I understand. Your family is quite special, and you
want to avoid unnecessary appearances in the public.â Jacqueline
nodded her head.
"We will definitely attend the formal wedding in the future. After all, it's a
once-a-lifetime event for our daughter. And we don't want to miss it and
have regrets." Cecelia promises.
"Good," Jacqueline answered immediately.
"Charlotte is not feeling well just now and has fallen asleep, so I won't
call her out to see you off." Cecelia nodded her head in greeting.
"Yeah, we'll go straight to the hospital to visit her later. Cecelia, thank
you." Jacqueline expressed her gratitude.
âFrom now on, we're all a family. No need to thank me." Cecelia hooked
her lips slightly.
Just in time, Luther and Ralph had finished talking. The two of them
came downstairs together.
