Chapter 70
Cecilia indulged in a few sips of cold water, and at last, her once-racing heart found its serenity.
Her gaze then turned toward the kitchen.
The frosted glass door mirrored the silhouette of the tall man. the haziness adding an extra layer of charm to his presence. Possibly sensing her gaze. Christopher abruptly extended his head from the kitchen, directing his gaze toward her.
“You’d have a more favorable vantage point if you step inside. and you can use the opportunity to lend me a hand.”
Cecilia felt a sudden urge to cough as her own saliva threatened to choke her. The warmth that had faded from her face moments ago returned.
She averted her gaze and replied. “Certainly”
Little did she realize that this gesture laid bare her rosy cheeks. entirely exposed to the gaze of Christopher.
After savoring the sight for a mere two seconds, he retracted his gaze.
After calming down, Cecilia went into the kitchen to help him
out.
They cooperated quietly, crafting a delicious dinner that just took a little over half an hour.
The feast comprised six dishes, with the majority masterfully prepared by Christopher.
The food both looked and smelled exquisite, on par with dishes crafted by top-tier chefs.
Christopher positioned a well-seasoned sauce before Cecilia and skillfully began to peel the crab for her.
He accomplished this task with nothing but his bare hands,

your her
without using any tools. At this moment, there was no trace of superiority about him.
With her eyes fixed on Christopher and the crab meat on her plate, Cecilia’s heart once again danced in disarray.
“I shall attend to this myself. Please have your meal.”
“You don’t have professional tools here to help you with it, and the crabs are not easy to peel. I’ll be done soon. You can start eating without me.”
After saying that, Christopher placed the crab’s leg meat on her plate once again.
Cecilia felt somewhat embarrassed. “It was supposed to be my treat, yet you ended up preparing the meal and even peeling the crab for me,” she remarked.
“If you feel bad about it, feed me some crab meat.”
“I wouldn’t mind feeding you all of it.”
After all, Cecilia had never been particularly fond of seafood. She delicately dipped the crab meat into the sauce and held it near Christopher’s lips.
Christopher took a bite of it, inadvertently brushing Cecilia’s fingertips with his soft, slender lips.
Instantly, Cecilia experienced a surge of electricity coursing through her, causing her fingertips to quiver faintly. She promptly retracted her hand.
She then placed the plate of crab meat and sauce before Christopher, saying, “Please, enjoy it. Seafood isn’t my preference.”
Christopher knew that Cecilia was shy and stopped teasing her further.
After dinner, he took the initiative to clean up the dishes. Cecilia wasn’t keen to win in the contest over dishwashing duties, so she opted to prepare a fruit platter for him instead.

Following the completion of dishwashing, Christopher emerged from the kitchen and called Cecilia, saying, “Pack your belongings and relocate with me to Emerald Mansion.”
Cecilia, in the midst of enjoying her apples, nearly choked upon hearing his proposition.
She understood Christopher’s concern for her safety, but she had never intended to hide.
“Even though the security in this neighborhood may not be as robust, not just anyone can enter my condominium,” Cecilia explained.
To be precise, she harbored the hope that the mastermind would come searching for her.
“In that case, I’ll move in with you, and we can live together as a
couple. No one will have any reason to suspect,” Christopher proposed.
“That’s not necessary. I’ll be fine alone.”
Christopher looked at Cecilia and declared domineeringly, “Either come to my place, or I’ll come to stay here with you. The choice is yours.”
Cecília chose neither of them.
“Christopher, we are just cooperating to find out the truth. You have no right to interfere in my decision.”
Accustomed to the solitude of her independent life, she couldn’t imagine living with a stranger.
Despite Christopher’s desire to safeguard her, she remained unable to accept it.
Observing Cecilia’s unwavering stance, Christopher adopted a gentler tone and refrained from further insistence.
“Please take care of yourself. Keep your phone on at all times, and if something happens, don’t hesitate to contact me immediately,” he advised.

“Okay, be careful on your way.”
Christopher cast a fleeting glance at the sky, which had yet to fully darken, and then shifted his gaze to Cecilia who seemed eager for his departure. With a soft chuckle, he rose to take his leave.
Once leaving the residential area, he dispatched a team of bodyguards to ensure Cecilia’s protection.
Cecilia was unaware of Christopher’s efforts to keep her safe.
She proceeded to set up various security measures in her condominium and resumed her investigation into the incident from three years ago.
At that moment, Jackson had just completed his racing practice.
Initially, he had intended to visit Juliana in the hospital, but he received a phone call from Sophia instead.
“Jackson, come home for dinner tonight.”
“Okay.”
Half an hour later, Jackson arrived at the Yancey residence.
The moment he stepped inside the house, Sophia inquired in a solemn tone, “Jackson, can you explain how the bet-on agreement came about?”
She found herself struggling to understand Cecilia. She felt almost as if the daughter she had reconnected with three years. ago was a mere impostor.
After all, the contrast between the Cecilia of the past and the current Cecilia was stag**ring.
Jackson had spent the remaining evening practicing car racing, and by this point, he was thoroughly exhausted.
He retrieved a bottle of water from the refrigerator and approached the couch, taking sips as he walked.
“Mom, it appears I may have fallen into Cecilia’s trap,” he

cher
confessed.
Sophia, too, had discerned the pattern. She believed that anything associated with Cecilia seemed to herald misfortune.
Frustration tinged her voice as she exclaimed, “We’ve endured numerous setbacks because of Cecilia. Why can’t you
draw
lessons from them?”
Afterward, she asked, “Jackson, you’re the nation’s top racer with five consecutive championships. Are you really not sure you can defeat Cecilia?”
Jackson, in a fit of frustration, pinched the skin between his eyebrows.
“I don’t know, Mom, but I will do my best.”
“If you’re not sure about winning against her, why do you have a bet-on agreement with her? Is it because you think you have too much money or reputation to lose?”
Jackson was already exhausted and filled with regret. After receiving a scolding from his mother, he grew irritated and couldn’t refrain from adopting a more serious tone in his response.
“Mom, I entered the bet-on agreement with Cecilia because I felt I could win against her. How would I know she would set me up?”
Sophia didn’t know the details, but she had some insight about the happenings at the racing track.
She looked at her impatient son and inquired, “Jackson, be honest with me. Did you agree to the bet-on agreement with Cecilia for Julia’s sake?”
Upon hearing this question, a hint of unease briefly flickered across Jackson’s countenance.
“Mom, it has nothing to do with Julia. It was Cecilia who deliberately provoked me. That’s why I wanted to teach her a lesson. Now that I’ve had time to think about it, I’ve realized
The True Lady Strikes Back
she intentionally stirred things up to bait me into a trap and tarnish my reputation!”
Having said that, he struck the coffee table with frustration and exclaimed, “Cecilia is so cu**ing! Wasn’t she just a farmer who knew nothing but how to till the land? How does she possess such knowledge and wealth?”
This was something Sophia found confusing as well.
Before taking Cecilia back to the Yancey residence, she carefully checked and confirmed that Cecilia was a bumpkin who didn’t even get into college.
This was also confirmed when Cecilia was brought back to donate blood to Juliana.
Setting aside her docile demeanor, her habit of consistently involving herself in embarrassing and awkward situations was the reason her family held her in disfavor.
“Jackson, do you think the current Cecilia is a fake? Maybe she is not your biological sister.”
Jackson looked at Sophia, speechless for a while, before saying,- “Mom, what are you saying? Cecilia is still the same person. She was just lying to us.”
He speculated, “Perhaps Cecilia returned initially with the intention of vying for the inheritance, but when she didn’t succeed, she departed from the Yancey residence and turned against us in retaliation.”
As soon as he said that, Sophia poked Jackson’s head frustratedly.
“Thankfully, you have no interest in running the company. Otherwise, your intellect would lead it straight into bankruptcy,” she remarked.
She subsequently contemplated that if Cecilia were to return to contend for the inheritance, she would endeavor to display her most favorable attributes and win everyone’s favor, instead of
The True Lady Strikes Back
pretending as a useless country bumpkin and getting everyone to hate her.
Since Sophia couldn’t figure out Cecilia’s intention, she threw it aside and focused on the current problem.
“Jackson, can you think of any strategy to secure victory in the
racing competition scheduled for the day after tomorrow?”
