When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 119

Chapter 119 The Words Once Said

Nathaniel was taken aback.

Didn’t she say she has a thing for gold, silver, and jewelry?

“Are you sure?” Nathaniel’s expression gradually turned cold.

Looking at his current state, Cecilia was certain that he had forgotten the words he once said in the past. “I would accept gifts from anyone, but yours is the only one I refuse!” After saying that, she pushed past Nathaniel and headed upstairs.

Watching Cecilia’s cold figure, Nathaniel directly tossed the gift box into the trash bin. Having skipped meals for the entire night and dealing with a cold, he was now experiencing a subtle stomachache.

He didn’t know what was going on with him that day. When he saw the luxurious bracelet sent by a client, he was reminded of the words spoken during the time when Cecilia lost her memory, “I told you, I don’t remember. However, I can tell you that I love makeup, and I adore vibrant, beautiful clothes. I also have a thing for gold, silver, and jewelry.”

Nathaniel’s face darkened as he sat back on the couch in anger.

The present–day Cecilia wasn’t indulging him anymore. She retreated to her room alone to freshen up and rest. The doctor had advised her to maintain a calm demeanor and refrain from staying up late. Otherwise, her condition would fluctuate.

Just the day before, she had problems with her ears again.

Nathaniel had been slumped on the couch for approximately half an hour, listening as the stirrings from Cecilia’s room upstairs gradually ceased. Only then did he confirm that this woman truly had no concern for him

anymore.

Inside the room, Cecilia took her medicine and lay in bed, gradually drifting into a dreamland. However, it wasn’t long before the already locked room door was opened with a key, and a tall figure stepped in.

The man pulled back the covers, drawing Cecilia into his embrace with a firm grip. He held her close. Feeling the familiar and pleasant scent of Cecilia, the discomfort in Nathaniel’s body seemed to alleviate a bit.

When Cecilia came to, she opened her eyes. In the pitch–black room, she couldn’t make out the man. She reached out, intending to push him away, but Nathaniel held her even tighter.

“I don’t need this kind of opportunity.” Cecilia retreated further, finding herself with nowhere else to go.
