When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 1623 Make Sure He Is Okay

Cecilia looked down at the box of food with a hint of confusion in her eyes.

"What is this?"

"It's from Miranda. It's got meat in it. You didn't enjoy the food just now, did you? Have some."

When Miranda approached and heard those words, the tiny flame that had ignited within her heart was immediately extinguished.

She had thought that Nathaniel actually cared for her, which was why he accepted her kindness. To her surprise, he was merely trying to please Cecilia.

"Nathaniel, you really do love your wife. I just gave it to you and you instantly handed it over to Ceci," she said, her tone laced with sarcasm.

During dinner, Cecilia hadn't truly eaten her fill.

The dinner provided by the school was quite plain, and there wasn't much of it either.

She looked at the food Nathaniel had handed to her, then shifted her gaze toward Miranda.

Before she could refuse, Nathaniel spoke again. "Eat up. Eating too late isn't good for your health."

Cecilia gave a slight nod, then turned to Miranda and said, "Thank you, Miranda."

Miranda offered a smile that didn't quite reach her eyes. "Don't mention it. Enjoy the food."

The moment she turned and walked away, her face was clouded with gloom.

"Enjoy the food while you can, because you won't have the chance on your way to hell," she muttered to herself.

Miranda had thought that if Nathaniel accepted her goodwill and showed interest in her, she could kindly save his life by nightfall. Now, it seemed unnecessary. She would make sure they meet their end.

She clenched her fists, still feeling upset.

Cecilia opened the box of food, revealing an array of different dishes inside. The food looked exquisite and incredibly appetizing. "Wow, this looks so delicious. Jon, Mr. Rainsworth, let's eat together. I can't finish all this food by myself," Cecilia happily suggested. Mr. Rainsworth?

Deep down, Nathaniel felt displeased, but he kept his feelings to himself. "Sure."

He took a seat, and the three of them ate together.

This time, they were finally satisfied. Cecilia and Jonathan took a leisurely stroll before lying down on the grass. They gazed up at the sky. With a cool breeze brushing against them, they felt particularly at ease.

"Mommy, it might rain tonight. We should probably move the tent elsewhere," Jonathan suggested after glancing at his smartwatch. "All right."

Before she could even approach the tent, Nathaniel had already moved it.

She wondered if she would be able to sleep well that night.

The parents had suggested returning early, but the teachers saw this as a rare opportunity to enjoy nature and insisted that everyone should stay.

The parents and children were

accustomed to privileged lives. After

setting up their tents on the first day, they had already called for assistance with the setup by the next day.

The teachers observed everything but felt it wasn't appropriate to comment.

At that moment, Miranda received a message from Robert.

After tidying up briefly, she went to find the teacher.

"It seems Felix got a stomach upset tonight. I need to go down the mountain to take him to see a doctor."

"All right, hurry on, make sure he's okay," the teacher said with concern.

"Mhm."noveldrama

Miranda led Felix down the mountain.

The two of them left, drawing significant attention from the other parents.

Nathaniel had noticed something off about

pickeranda for a while now. He

picked up his phone and dialedza number. "Follow Miranda and find out where she's going."

Felix had been challenging others at noon, only to be struck with stomach troubles by evening.

Moreover, Nathaniel knew that Miranda didn't enjoy living in the wild, yet it was she who had suggested this outing.
