When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 1621

Chapter 1621 I Am A Bit Hungry
In the afternoon, the sky was somewhat overcast. Cecilia and the kids sat atop a small hill, basking in the breeze and relishing the grilled fish. It was a particularly delightful moment.

Jonathan had intentionally left a live fish behind for Dante.

“This fish won't last long,” he said.

Dante's eyes sparkled with admiration as he looked at Jonathan. “Thank you, Jon. You're too kind.”

Cecilia observed the scene with a subtle smile forming at the corners of her mouth.

My son is truly a sweetheart. He'll never be short of friends in the future.

“It's just a fish. It's no big deal,” Jonathan said, feeling uncomfortable with the gratitude.

Dante was deeply moved. However, recalling the events that had previously occurred, he felt a certain unease.

“Ms. Cecilia, do you think I was wrong just now?”

The world of a child was uncomplicated.

He had always believed he had done nothing wrong. However, when he reflected on how his father had demanded an apology from him, he began to harbor doubts.

Cecilia pondered for a moment and replied, “You didn't do anything wrong. You were merely defending your own rights. It was Felix who made the first mistake.”

Dante grew even more confused. “Then why did my daddy ask me to apologize?”

“Because in the adult world, there are no clear-cut distinctions between right and wrong. You'll understand that better when you grow up,” Cecilia murmured.

Dante began to grasp the situation. “I understand now. It's because my daddy is afraid of Felix's mommy. Both he and my mommy would always tell me to stay on Felix's good side. That way, our family business would thrive, and we could make more money.”

A wave of sorrow washed over Cecilia.

She couldn't believe such a young child was forced to bear these burdens.

She wasn't sure how to console Dante, so she gently stroked his head.

Dante raised his head to look at her, his eyes filled with resolve.
