Just thought she didn’t study because of teenage rebellion, and even forced her to take extra classes.
Cecily was under too much stress. After a big fight with Elias, she took a lot of the sleeping pills Elias got from the hospital for his sleep problems while he was out at a meeting. She found them in his office.
Britney happened to come to the office to find Elias and accidentally found Cecily, who had taken pills to kill herself.
She had someone call an ambulance while giving Cecily first aid.
Made sure Cecily had just taken the medicine, then reached out and made her throw up right away.
When Elias rushed over after hearing the news, Cecily was throwing up badly.
Britney didn’t mind the mess and gently helped Cecily with it.
It was that moment, Elias was moved.
Because of Britney’s first aid, Cecily was fine.
During those days in the hospital, Britney stayed with me the whole time and even helped talk me through things.
It was also at this time that Elias realized it was his way of teaching that was the problem.
Later, Britney personally took Cecily to see a psychologist, and also helped her with her homework.
With Britney’s help. Cecily got a little better bit by bit, and in the end she even got into the high school she wanted.
Cecily also really liked Britney, this big sister she could talk to. She told her everything on her mind, so of course she also knew some things about Britney.
That included Britney had a boyfriend, and her boyfriend was also her boss.
As for Elias’s little scheme, of course Cecily saw right through it.
So she often felt sorry for Elias, saying he was a step too late and just didn’t have that kind of luck.
Elias was a real gentleman. When he found out Britney liked someone else, he backed off.
Restrained myself and followed the rules, never crossed the line.
Until just now, he saw with his own eyes that Rodrick was having an affair with another woman, and Britney also left Royarch Capital.
Elias just needed to guess a little and could figure out that Britney and Rodrick had already broken up.
At that moment, he was super excited.
And I told Cecily this good news right away.
Cecily was lying on the top bunk in her dorm watching shows when she got the call. When she heard the news, she jumped up and hit her head on the ceiling. It hurt so much she yelled, Ow, ow!
But back then she didn’t care about her headache at all, just kept urging Elias.
“Then what were you waiting for!”
“Hurry up and chase!!!”
“I wanted Britney to be my sister–in–law!!!!
***
Britney didn’t want to let Elias down, so she stayed up for three days straight and made a business plan that was pretty much perfect.
Then I excitedly started reaching out to some investors I’d met before.
Before this, Britney was also mentally prepared to be rejected.
After all, back then she had no resources, no connections, and no one to back her up.
Others might not have given her any respect.
But reality was even harsher than what Britney imagined.
Dozens of calls went out, but nothing came of it.
Britney didn’t get discouraged. She took her business plan and went to visit and persuade companies one by one.
After running around for a few days, I was numb and my legs were about to break.
Drank so much tea I felt like throwing up.
Britney kept comforting herself.
