When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 1274

Chapter 1274 Holding Hands
Without any further ado, the two immediately headed to Elliot's ward.

Only when Elliot saw both his parents return did he finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Cecilia walked over, asking gently, “What's wrong, Sweetie?”

Elliot suddenly embraced her. “Mommy, I thought you and Daddy had another fight and didn't want me anymore.”

“How could that be? I've already arranged with your daddy to live together with us in the future,” Cecilia reassured him.

After hearing that, Elliot felt considerably relieved. “Really?” he asked.

“Of course. Now, go back to sleep,” Cecilia said, her eyes filled with tenderness.

Elliot couldn't help but ask, “Mommy, can you and Daddy sleep on either side of me?”

Cecilia glanced at Nathaniel before she nodded and said, “All right. After we freshen up, we'll sleep next to you.”

“Okay.” Elliot nodded repeatedly, finally showing signs of happiness.

Cecilia also felt greatly comforted.

She had Nathaniel go freshen up first. Once Nathaniel and Elliot were comfortably settled in bed, she then went to take a quick bath.

When she returned, Elliot and Nathaniel were engaged in a lively conversation. Their shared happiness was palpable.

When Cecilia saw how much the child adored Nathaniel, she genuinely felt happy.

She walked forward, settling down to sleep on the other side of Elliot.

“All right, it's getting late. Let's get some sleep.”

“All right,” Elliot obediently agreed.

Before he closed his eyes, he placed Cecilia's hand and Nathaniel's hand on his own body, urging them to hold onto each other and never let go.

Cecilia and Nathaniel looked at each other, their hands intertwined in a silent pact, words unspoken.

As time passed, Elliot fell asleep once more.

Cecilia had initially intended to withdraw her hand, but Nathaniel's grip was surprisingly firm, showing no signs of wanting to let go even for a moment.
