When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 1796 Arriving With Fanfare

Upon seeing that the person who came down was Cecilia, Vivian felt a twitch tugged at the corner of her mouth.

What's going on? Since when did Ceci become so pretentious? Weren't we just supposed to have a meal, chat a bit, and stroll around? Why are there so many people involved now?

Cecilia had actually noticed the peculiar gazes around her. She got out of the car, feeling somewhat embarrassed, wishing she could find a place to hide.

She quickly made her way into the store.

The bodyguards were about to follow her, but Cecilia couldn't help but order in a low voice, "That's enough. You guys wait for me outside."

The bodyguards looked at her, their gazes filled with worry.

"No, Mdm. Queenie has made it clear that we can't be more than ten meters away from you."

Cecilia was left speechless.

She had no choice but to enter with the group of bodyguards.

Luckily, there was no one in the restaurant at that time.

The boss, upon seeing them, immediately approached and cautiously asked, "Excuse me, did I do something wrong?"

Cecilia wore a face full of confusion.

She surveyed her surroundings before responding, "I think this place is pretty nice. It's peaceful and the decor isn't half bad. What's the problem?"

The boss became even more bewildered.

"So, what is this about?"

His voice couldn't be any softer.

Cecilia then explained, "We simply came here to eat. My friend is waiting here."

As she spoke, her gaze wandered around the room, eventually landing on Vivian, who was seated by the window in the corner.

Vivian was not accustomed to such fanfare; she didn't even want to admit that she knew Cecilia.

Nevertheless, Cecilia still called out to her, "Vivian."

Vivian pretended not to hear, keeping her head down in silence.

Cecilia had no choice but to walk toward her.

The bodyguard behind her quickly followed suit, leaving one person behind who addressed the boss. "We're reserving the entire place for today."

Upon hearing this, the boss was initially taken aback, but then he repeatedly nodded, saying, "Alright."

The bodyguards scanned the surroundings, each positioning themselves strategically to prevent any harm from befalling Cecilia.

Meanwhile, Cecilia took a seat opposite Vivian.

Vivian lowered her voice as she asked, "Cecilia, isn't this a bit too much? Are you sure you're just here to have a meal and chat with me?"

Cecilia felt somewhat helpless.

"Originally, I didn't want them to tag along, but my mom insisted, fearing we might encounter some danger."

After hearing this, Vivian couldn't help but gasp.

"Oh my, Mem. Queenie is being tog cautious. That said, Ceci, I'm truly happy for you now. You've finally found a mother who cherishes you," Vivian added with a knowing smile.

Cecilia was truly joyful. This period was indeed the happiest time of her life.

A thought occurred to her, and she retrieved a gift box from her bag, placing it before Vivian.

"Vivian, this is a gift that my maternal grandparents asked me to give you."

Vivian was left stunned. "For me?"

"Yup." Cecilia nodded.

Vivian hesitantly accepted the box, a hint of disbelief etched on her face. Upon opening it, she was met

pair of emerald bracelets, thewith a

beauty and craftsmanship unrivaled.

Although she didn't have much knowledge about emerald bracelets or jewelry,

she could tell they were quite expensive just by looking at them.noveldrama

"Are you really giving me something this valuable?" asked Vivian.

"That's right." Cecilia nodded again.

Vivian was extremely flattered.

You, Ceci, and thank youret

grandparents for me, I really love it. However, I came in such a hurry that I didn't prepare any gifts for them."

"Don't worry, I'll convey your well wishes to them. And knowing how much you like

the gift, they'll surely be delighted," said Cecilia.
