When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 1601

Chapter 1601 An Awkward Moment
On one hand, Jocelyn felt guilty that her elderly grandmother was still worrying about her. On the other hand, she also acknowledged that she was not getting any younger and indeed, it was about time she found a partner.

She typed: Grandma, I understand. I will meet Yannick again.

After the message was sent, the old lady finally calmed down.

Jocelyn switched off her phone, having nothing more to say.

Finally, they arrived at the Griffiths residence.

Nicholas opened his eyes, and the two of them exited the car in unison, not mentioning the content of the earlier conversation on the phone.

Meanwhile, Cecilia and Nathaniel returned home that evening.

Cecilia couldn't help but ask him, “Are both children going to live in Rainsworth Manor going forward?”

Even though her memories of the children had not yet returned, she found herself growing fond of them after spending more time together.

“Once your memory returns, we can bring the children home if that's what you want,” Nathaniel said solemnly.

Cecilia nodded. “Alright.”

By the time she arrived at the Smith residence, it was already quite late, and everyone had gone to sleep.

Cecilia first told Elliot a bedtime story. Only after ensuring that he had drifted off to sleep, she quietly slipped away, readying herself for bed.

She had barely reached the door when Nathaniel appeared before her, blocking her path.

Cecilia looked up, a puzzled expression on her face as she gazed at him. She lowered her voice, careful not to wake Elliot.

“What's wrong? Is there a problem?”

Nathaniel lowered his gaze, his dark eyes intensely focused on her. “Let's stay in the same room,” he suggested.

Cecilia's face was somewhat flushed, and when she spoke again, she stuttered, “No... it... it's not appropriate.”

“What's not appropriate about it?” Nathaniel asked, firmly holding her hand. “We're married, can you really bear to see me always alone?”

“Sleeping alone is actually quite nice,” Cecilia remarked with a wry smile.

Nathaniel felt a sense of unease deep within his heart. He embraced Cecilia tightly. “You really do have faith in me, don't you?”

Whenever he wanted to go out in the past, Cecilia would always ask him where he was heading, constantly checking up on him.
