When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 607

Chapter 607 Please Do Not Be Mad
“Daddy, Mommy, can you please stop fighting?” Elliot, ever the actor, quickly fell into character, his eyes already brimming with tears.

Both Cecilia and Nathaniel fell silent.

With a pitiful look in his eyes, Elliot turned to Cecilia. “Mommy, I don't want to go to kindergarten anymore. Please don't blame Daddy. He only agreed because he couldn't bear to see me upset.”

Cecilia was distressed to hear him say that.

He's making it sound like I'm fine with seeing him upset! I took care of him for years! Why can't I compare to his father, who has only been around for a few months?

“Mommy, please don't be mad, okay?” To help Nathaniel, Elliot had no choice but to humble himself and divert his mother's attention.

He hoped that by acting adorable, Cecilia would calm down and stop being angry at Nathaniel. Unfortunately, things didn't go as he had hoped.

“Eli, if you want to go to kindergarten, then go. But if anything happens, you must drop out right away.” Instead of hugging Elliot as usual, she walked straight past him after finishing her sentence.

Elliot panicked, realizing that Cecilia was not only mad at Nathaniel but at himself, too.

Cecilia, wanting some alone time to calm down, retreated to the music room, shutting the door behind her.

Jonathan criticized Elliot, “Are you out of your mind? Mommy raised you, yet you defended Nathaniel?”

“Jon, don't you want a complete family?” Elliot retorted. “Do you like being labeled as an unwanted child or a b*stard?”

Jonathan fell silent. A moment later, he looked at Elliot's stubborn expression and said, “I'll say it again, I'll only call him 'Daddy' when Mommy is ready to accept him.”

“Jon...”

“Stop that. That doesn't work on me.”
