Winner Takes All Chapter 318
A melodious piano piece resounded in the air.Cecily leaned against the window, gazing at the blooming flowers and fountain in the yard. Her eyes were reddened and a little swollen.She had fantasized about the proposal at the end of this month.She even hoped that Austin would actually come in shining armor, maybe even on horseback, as he arrived and proposed to her.But now, all her fantasies and hope seemed to be tossed into an icy cave. They turned cold, numb, and indifferent.A knock sounded on the door."Cecily, it's time for lunch," Edward called out at the door.Cecily wiped the corners of her eyes. "Dad, I'm not hungry. You and Mom should go ahead.""Child, you haven't eaten for two days. What if you starve yourself too much?" Edward sounded a little angry, but it was because his heart ached for his daughter.Cecily said playfully, "Come on, Dad, I'm a grown-up now. Can you not treat me like a child?""Cecily, are you troubled by anything? You can tell me about it. D

When Cecily and Rachel heard Edward's angry voice, they hurriedly ran out of the room.They saw Edward holding photos in his hand, his face filled with fury."Dad…"Cecily's heart immediately sank. When she saw the familiar envelope and photo, an extremely terrifying thought popped up in her head.She was exposed!She had been in a daze for the past few days, and she couldn't even eat or drink. She was indeed affected by the photo, but she refused to tell her parents about it because she feared that the matter would progress to the point of no return.The scene before her eyes right now made her feel faint."What's the matter? Why are you so angry?"Rachel frowned deeply as she hurried forward."Look! That bastard Austin, does he think he can bully our daughter just like that?" Edward angrily handed the photos to Rachel.Rachel looked at the photos. In an instant, a cold expression appeared on her elegant face.She didn't spend too much time in Cecily's room just now, so she

Cecily nodded quietly. Her eyes were red and filled with tears."Well, then. Tell us what you think!" Rachel said straightforwardly.The photos were concrete evidence, so no matter how gentle Rachel was, she could hardly suppress her anger.Her only sense of reason was that she would choose to consider her daughter's opinions.Cecily frowned deeply. A hesitant look appeared on her beautiful face.She clasped her hands together, but her mind was in a huge mess.She had thought about this matter for two days.At first, she was furious and indignant like her parents were.But after calming down, she felt that Austin wasn't someone who would do things like that.After Austin and Nancy divorced, Cecily took note of how Austin treated Nancy.Moreover, she had temporarily left Austin back then because of what he did toward the Welches.Also, in the photos, Austin and Nancy were just seated facing each other. They didn't do anything outrageous.Taking a deep breath, Cecily said ear

The sun was shining bright in the sky.Even in the hot summer weather, Heavensgate Residence was refreshingly cool thanks to the shade of the woods.Ezra sat leisurely on the garden swing, swaying gently.Aldus was still in the hospital. He had regained consciousness, but it would be a while before he could be discharged.Raquel was taking attentive care of him in the hospital.After lunch at noon, Dahlia left the house.Ezra knew where Dahlia went, but as a household staff member, he didn't have the right to stop her. He didn't dare to tell Austin about it, either, for he didn't doubt Dahlia's threats to end her life if he did.Ezra was the only person left in the huge villa.It felt a little empty.Still, Ezra didn't mind it. He made himself at home.Holding a teacup in his hand, Ezra leaned leisurely against the seat of the swing.But a single call had ended his leisure time.When Ezra saw the words "Mr. Walter" on the screen, his expression instantly turned stern."Mr.

Dahlia gritted her teeth stubbornly. She said slowly, "I've been dragging Austin down for so long, and now that our family is finally seeing better days, I don't want this matter to drag him down again. He's my son, and my heart aches for him. He's already tired enough as it is!"Ezra had a dark look on his face as he said in exasperation, "But I fear that you may not be able to handle this matter properly, Madam Emerson. You were already aware back then that problems come with power."Now that sir is already grown up, even you should be under his protection. How will you deal with the matter?""Enough!" Dahlia retorted firmly. She had lost her usual gentle and friendly demeanor.Ezra watched as Dahlia entered the house. His originally good mood was ruined.He sighed helplessly. "Wolves are born wild, so how can they possibly understand human kindness? Their instinct is to devour everything at all costs. Madam Emerson, why can't you understand that?"…Time slowly went by.To A

"Yes, we're at the foot of the hill."Cecily's voice sounded very calm over the phone.Austin frowned a little when he noticed it. He was slightly puzzled.Right after that, Cecily's voice rang out again over the phone."Are you really going to propose to me?"Austin frowned even deeper. Smiling, he said, "Of course. I've been preparing for a long time just for today."As soon as Austin said that, Edward's voice suddenly rang out on the other end of the line."Austin, what's the matter with those photos?"Austin felt like he was struck by lightning. His heart instantly sank, and he felt his vision turning dark.Something bad had happened!In an instant, a foul emotion filled his chest, and fury raged within him.If Cecily and her family had learned about this, then there was only one possibility.Nancy didn't destroy the photos like she had promised!Instead, she had sent the photos to Cecily!Austin hastily said, "Mr. Graham, please wait for me. I'll be there right away.

Austin had a stern look on his face as he spoke earnestly."Hah, take advantage?" Edward sneered. "And who might that be? Are you telling me that Nancy is using you? Are you saying that she asked to meet you so that the photos can be taken, and so she can break you and Cecily up?"Austin's gaze flickered. He was at a loss for words.Even though it was the truth, judging by Edward's reaction, Austin knew that no one would believe him if he said it."Cecily…"Austin wanted to walk toward Cecily, but Edward raised his hand to stop Austin."Mr. Graham, can you please let me pass?" Austin said, almost begging."If you have something to say, say it here." Edward was unyielding.If Cecily hadn't stopped him, on the day he saw the photos, he would have come over and questioned Austin about it.The Grahams had never been disgraced like this before!"I…"Austin didn't know what to say. He looked at Cecily with tenderness in his gaze. "Cecily, do you feel the same?""Austin, I need yo

"Cecily…"Austin's expression shifted. He felt like his heart was going to leap out of his chest.He hastily ran after them.But the G-Class was speeding, and it soon disappeared into the night.Suddenly, on the mountain road in the distance, two beams of light came into view.With a screech, the two cars stopped at the same time, right before they collided.Startled, Austin hastily ran over to the scene. But when he approached the spot and saw the person getting out of the other car, he froze.After a moment of bewilderment, the burning rage in his chest instantly exploded.At that moment, Austin looked just like a ferocious beast. With reddened eyes, he dashed toward that person.Meanwhile, Cecily also got out of the G-Class.Cecily had a despondent look on her pale face as she gazed at the figure in front of her.She smiled bitterly. "You won!"The person who had gotten out of the car was none other than Nancy!Nancy's long hair was draped across her shoulders. She look
