When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him Novel

Chapter 1336 Get That Car

"It's pretty good. Everything is proceeding in an orderly manner."

"That's good. If there's anything you need help with, don't hesitate to tell me," Meredith said, holding Cecilia's hand. "I may not have all the resources in the world, but I do have a circle of friends I can introduce you to." "All right, I won't stand on ceremony, then," Cecilia said with a smile.

Helen also came over and said, "Ms. Cecilia, if there's anything you need our family's assistance with, feel free to reach out to me."

"Sure," Cecilia readily agreed.

Priscilla also came over, albeit a bit embarrassed. Along the way, she introduced Cecilia to a few unassuming parents.

To Cecilia's surprise, she managed to secure several collaborations there. Indeed, making more friends never did any harm. Cassandra and Nicholas were together, their gazes occasionally drifting in this direction.

"They're just a bunch of nobodies," Cassandra murmured.

Most of the mothers had received the news from Miranda that day. They had learned that Cassandra's maternal family was the prestigious Jamieson family. One by one, they tried to curry favor with her. A look of satisfaction filled Cassandra's eyes.

"Ms. Evans, I heard there's a relay race later. It's not good for you to run while pregnant. Perhaps you could ask the teacher to cancel the race," a mother of a child suggested pleasingly.

The other mothers nodded in agreement. "Exactly! They should cancel it. How could one possibly run while being pregnant? The child's well-being is the priority."

Felix, standing among them, was somewhat displeased. "No! It shouldn't be canceled! The prize for the relay race is a limited-edition car. Jon and I both want it. I'm determined to get it!" Though it was a limited-edition car, to him, it held no particular value.

Ever since Jonathan joined the preschool, he always seemed to fall short in comparison. He yearned for a chance to outshine Jonathan just once.

Upon hearing that Jonathan was also interested, Cassandra couldn't help but say, "No worries. I can join the activity. It's just that I have to run slower." After she finished speaking, she looked at those mothers, not holding back at all. "You all would let me win, wouldn't you?"

Naturally, the mothers didn't dare to offend her, nodding their heads in unison. "Don't worry. You're pregnant, so we'll all take care of you." "That's right!"

That's basically cheating, right? Jonathan was attentively listening off to the side when a large hand suddenly scooped him up.

His body was suspended in mid-air, and the entire ordeal had left him terrified, yet he feigned composure.

"Who is it? Put me down quickly!"

Nathaniel turned him around. "It's me."

When Jonathan saw Nathaniel's face, there was a chill in his eyes.

"Why are you here?"

"Am I not allowed to be here?" Nathaniel retorted.

"Put me down now!"

Jonathan was not accustomed to being held by others.

Nathaniel didn't let him go. Instead, he pulled him aside and asked, "Are you also after that limited-edition car?"

"I guess," Jonathan said nonchalantly.

In truth, he really desired that limited-edition car. He could dismantle it and examine its internal structure and design. Nathaniel gently set him down before beckoning Zachary to come over.

He pointed to the prize and said to Zachary, I'm counting on you today. If we win, I'll gift you a real one However, if we don't, I'll send you off to aid work in Alendor."

Zachary really wanted to roll his eyes. What a domineering person I'm participating in his son's event

on his behalf, yet he's still threatened me.

"It's just a toy, right? I get it. I get it," Zachary responded, unconcerned.

At first, Zachary found it quite simple, not feeling any sort of challenge at all.

However, once the event began, everyone, as usual, split into two teams. Zachary's group was in opposition to Cassandra's.

He was surprised to find out that these parents were actually letting the opponent win.
