Chapter 205 Claiming Sovereignty
After receiving the message, Cecelia went to the private room to meet Remington.
“Remington!”
Opening the door, Cecelia was stunned to see several other handsome men. She knew they were all Remington’s good friends.
When Cecelia suddenly appeared, the men in the room were all stunned. Seeing her, Jimmy jumped up in surprise.
“Cece, come in!”

Remington came over, closed the door, and pulled her in, saying, “My friends have long wanted to meet you. Let me formally introduce them to you.”
“No need. I know them.”
Cecelia had read their profiles, so she looked at Rupert and said, “Mr. Jackbone, the owner of Grande Club and the number one pla yboy in the Center City.”
Rupert couldn’t help laughing, “Are you complimenting me?”
Cecelia looked at Sam and said, “Mr. Cosby, a well-known jewelry tycoon with a prominent family background. You’re a nobleman who is rumored to have a hidden disease.
Sam smiled, “Thanks for your praise.”

When it was Jimmy’s turn, he got excited, wondering how she would praise him. Fearing she ignored him, he raised his hand and asked, “What about me?”
Cecelia looked at him and lightly commented, “Jimmy Bloom, you’re the youngest award-winning acfor. Although your acting skills áre impeccable, you are arrogant and always use stunt performers. And you have bad taste.”
“Wow!”
Jimmy found she had a sharp tongue. Even the boss of his broker company didn’t dare to say such harsh words to him. Everyone praised and flattered him. But Cecelia had boldly pointed out his shortcomings! However, he was not angry but appreciated her more.
“You’re right! I will correct my mistakes!”
He had adopted such a humble attitude toward nobody but Cecelia. So both Rupert and Sam rolled their eyes at him, thinking he was

too adulatory. They often asked him to stop being arrogant at work, but he had never humbly agreed to change.
“Cecelia, please sit down.”
They enthusiastically invited Cecelia to join their dinner.
Remington pulled out a chair, let her sit, and sat beside her. Then, he naturally rested one arm on her chair, silently claiming sovereignty.
She turned to look at him and asked in a faint voice, “Why did your send me such a message? Did you see her?”
Remington whispered in her ear, “Yes, I met her.”
“Where?”
“This restaurant.”
When she looked at him in surprise, he continued, “Don’t worry. I have a good plan, but I need your cooperation.”
“Okay, go ahead.”
When they discussed their daughter’s matter in low voices, the other three men thought they were showing affection in public instead of having dinner.
After the discussion, Cecelia stood up and said, “You guys take your time to enjoy the meal. I need to go now!”
“Do you have to go now? Let’s have a drink!”
Jimmy had waited for a long time. But Cecelia would leave before he could have a good talk with her.
“Today is inconvenient. Cece, I’ll see you off!”
Remington accompanied her out the door and watched her walk toward Jersey. He didn’t follow her over because he would meet her tomorrow. And he believed Jersey was no match for him!
When Jersey sent Cecelia back to Bluebell Mansion, she got off the car and asked, “Jersey, how long will you stay in the Cathail Republic this time?”
“It depends! I will leave after settling the matters!”
Jersey’s so-called official business trip was a cover. He had come to the Cathail Republic for Cecelia.

“Okay! Good night!”

After saying goodbye, Cecelia walked into the manor’s gate without inviting him to stay overnight.
Staring after her, Jersey was lost in thought. He leaned against the car door and smoked three cigarettes before reluctantly leaving.
After returning to the villa, Cecelia first checked on the children. Then, she returned to her bedroom, showered, and studied her mother’s diary.
Cecelia found an essential thing. Her grandmother’s origin was not simple. She was not born in the Cathail Republic but came from Porema in Bemanko. And she used to be the descendant of the Songo Dyehouse!
More than sixty years ago, her grandmother Cassie Blake had come to the Cathail Républic from Porema and concealed her identity. Later, she married her grandfather Allen Don and gave birth to Leila. Leila gradually discovered Cassie’s origin and why she had come to the Cathail Républic during the investigation. It was related to The Collection of Fragrant Clothes of the Songo Dyehouse.
Leila had read the first half of The Collection of Fragrant Clothes. It was about the process and method of dying clothes and the secret formula for matching spices. It was a pity that there was only half a volume. No one knew where the other half was.
Leila had written in her diary that her mother’s last wish was to find. the other half of The Collection of Fragrant Clothes and revive the Songo Dyehouse.
Cassie had wanted to find the other half of the book and revive the Songo family. Why had she come to the Cathail Republic sixty years. ago? Was the other half of the book here?
Cecelia wanted to know why her grandmother had come to the Cathail Republic, so she asked Upton to investigate. The Songo family in Porema was a centuries-old family. Since Cassie was their descendant, why had she not stayed at home? Why had she fled to the Cathail Repúblic and concealed her identity?
Leila had investigated these things for a lifetime but passed away before discovering the truth. Now, it was Cecelia’s turn.
Cecelia carefully recalled her grandfather’s death and what had happened to her mother, suspecting they had something to do with her grandmother and had someone destroyed the Done family because of The Collection of Fragrant Clothes.

Cecelia could not find the answer in her mother’s diary. But a man named Mr. L in it attracted her attention.

Her mother had vented her grievances to him. Was he her biological father? Who was Mr. L?
Most things in her mother’s diary were trivial matters in daily life, so Cecelia did not find any more valuable clues.
Perhaps, her mother had been eager to find out the truth as much as she did now.
Her mother had failed to fulfill her grandma’s last wish, so Cecelia vowed to try to do it within the range of her ability. And she must solve all the mysteries of The Collection of Fragrant Clothes!
After a good sleep, Cecelia came to the venue of the basketball game the next day and met Ariella.
“Cece, I’m so happy that you are coming to watch my brother’s game!”
“Let’s go in to talk!”
Ariella rejoiced too soon. She didn’t know Cecelia had come for two purposes. One was to create a chance for Cynthia to meet Shepard. And the other was to meet her daughter.
They were in the most significant basketball gymnasium in the Center City. When Cecelia entered, she found Cynthia had long arrived and gotten seated.
“Cecelia, Ariella, here!”
Cynthia beckoned them to sit down.
After Cecelia got seated, she took out a colorful windmill from her bag.
Seeing it, Cynthia smiled, “Cecelia, what did you bring a windmill for? Did you buy it for my nephew?”
“No! You will know later!”
After finishing speaking, Cecelia expectantly looked at the entrance of the venue.
