Cecelia.
Everyone looked at Cecelia and was impressed by her.
“Just doing my job,” Cecelia said calmly.
Doing her job?
She seemed to have seen herself as a part of the family already!

Renee and Ronald became wary of Cecelia. If Remington were to marry any ordinary woman, they
wouldn’t give a damn about it. However, Remington was marrying Cecelia, who seemed really smart
and scheming. With her around, it would be harder for them to take action against Remington!
Later, Gabriella told the others to leave. Then, Cecelia went back to the Aroma Villa with Cynthia.
Andres was sitting at the door waiting for Cecelia. The moment he saw Cecelia come back, he ran
towards her quickly and wrapped his arms around her legs.
Cecelia then picked her son up and pinched his nose as she said, “Andres, are you hungry?”
Andres shook his head. Then, he wrapped his little arms around her neck and stared at her.
Cynthia’s jaw dropped when she saw how close Andres was to Cecelia. “No way! Am I hallucinating?
What the hell is wrong with Andres? He’s actually asking for a hug from you?”
Cynthia and Andres went along well, but Andres didn’t like having physical contact with her, let alone
asking her for a hug!
Cynthia wondered what magic Cecelia had used to not only charm Remington but also to win Andres‘
heart.
“Andres is a little kid. Isn’t it normal for him to want to be hugged?” Cecelia laughed.
“It’s not normal. Absolutely not!”
Cynthia tentatively held out her hand and said, “Andres, come! Come! Come on! Can you give Aunt
Cynthia a hug?”
Andres ignored Cynthia’s chubby hand and buried his little face in his mum’s neck, without even
glancing at Cynthia.
“Damn it! I’m depressed! I’m your aunt. I worked my ass off to take care of you when you were a baby.
How could you be so cruel to me?”
Cynthia didn’t even know how to complain. Andres seemed to have completely forgotten about her
after he had his motherl

Chapter 20 She Appreciates Cecelia
3/4
After returning to the Aroma Villa, Cynthia told Remington everything that had happened at the
mansion, without Cecelia having to say anything. And Cynthia kept praising Cecelia.
“Just a little skill!”
As far as Remington was concerned, Cecelia had only played a little trick. It only proved that she was a
scheming woman.
“How could you say that? Cecelia is as amazing as a detective. She is so smart. Anyway, I’m very
happy to have a sister–in–law like her. And our grandmother likes her too. You’d better hurry up and
get well. Go get her! Then you’ll be able to give Andres á family.”
Remington felt speechless.
He wondered how Cynthia had been brainwashed by Cecelia.
If it kept going on, he wouldn’t have any people around him to be. trusted.
“Huh? Don’t you think it’s weird that Andres actually likes Cecelia too? And he’s very close to her.
What’s going on? They’ve only known each other for a couple of days. Gee! What magic does that
woman have?”
Cynthia was still mumbling to herself. However, Remington was already tired of hearing Cynthia’s
words and shooing her away. “Get out of here! I’m going to rést! You are annoying!”
“Alright! Fine! Fine! I’ll go!”
The moment Cynthia left, Cecelia came into the room. Then, Remington yelled unhappily, “Didn’t I tell
you to leave? What are your still doing here?”
“Why are you so pissed off?”
Cecelia walked closer to Remington and looked at the expression on his face. Seeing his grim face,
Cecelia deliberately asked, “What’s wrong with you? Are you going through menopause? Or did your
sister feed you the wrong pills?”
Hearing her joke, Remington felt he was in an even worse mood. “Don’t think you can do whatever you
want just because you’ve bought them off!”
He was trying to say he would not marry her just because she’d roped in his grandmother, his sister,
and Andres. She was dreaming!
“When did I do whatever I wanted? Huh?”
Her clear and beautiful voice was charming. Cecelia walked up to him. Seeing Remington’s angry face,
she deliberately said. “Given

your current situation, so what if I did whatever I wanted to you?”

Cecelia suddenly wanted to prank him. Then, she reached out and pressed her hand against his chest
as she said, “Even if I forced myself on you, what could you do to me?”
Remington felt uneasy at the feel of her touch. Then, he reached out and slapped her hand away.
“Shame on you! If you ever touch me again, you’re dead!”
Cecelia couldn’t help but laugh and said, “I didn’t expect the CEO of the Nelson Group to be so
innocent. Haven’t you ever been touched by a woman? Huh?”
“Fuck off! Why are you being so flirty?”
Remington was furious, but Cecelia was amused by the look on his face.
He looked like a cute doormat when he got mad.
Cecelia stopped teasing him and got down to business. “Alright. I’ll stop joking with you. I think your
sister just told you about what happened, right? We’ve caught the man who released the snake! It’s
actually a servant named Peter.”
“So you think Peter is the mastermind?” Remington asked rhetorically.
Cecelia replied, “He stole the snake. He has admitted that he released the snake, and he has a motive.
He must be the guy who did it.”
“Did he want to kill me because I had reprimanded him? It happened. a long time ago. Why would he
wait until now to get back at me? It doesn’t make any sense, don’t you think?“”
“I don’t think he’s the real mastermind either! It’s highly likely that he was just told to do it!”
Remington went into silence. Then, Cecelia pondered as she said “If Peter was told to do so, then who
could the real mastermind be?”
