When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 620

Chapter 620 Too Scared To Sleep Alone
Cecilia looked over and saw Nathaniel holding Elliot, standing by the door.

“Mommy, I'm scared to sleep alone. I brought Daddy over. Can we all sleep together?”

Cecilia instinctively wanted to refuse since she and Nathaniel weren't talking to each other.

Nathaniel, however, didn't hesitate. He picked up Elliot and brought her over, placing her beside him. He then laid down himself.

“Sleep. I have to work tomorrow,” he said in a businesslike tone.

Seeing that Elliot was in the middle and Nathaniel seemed truly disinterested in her, Cecilia decided not to drive them out. She put down her phone and went to sleep as well.

After falling asleep, Cecilia had a dream.

In her dream, she was like a flat boat in the vast ocean, bobbing up and down with the rhythm of the waves.

She let out a sound, expressing her discomfort.

It was this sound that roused her from her slumber.

In her groggy state, she felt the man's tall and broad figure firmly holding her, his breath fanning her forehead, causing a wave of heat to roll over her.

Is that Nathaniel?

Cecilia tried to force herself to wake up and see if it was him.

As she finally managed to open her eyes and partially wake up, she saw Elliot still sleeping in the middle, with Nathaniel lying on the edge, illuminated by the faint moonlight.

Strangely, Nathaniel was sleeping on the edge, while Cecilia had somehow ended up in the middle with a large space on her right side.

Too tired to think much, Cecilia shifted a bit, moved Elliot to the middle, and ignored Nathaniel.

Falling back asleep, Cecilia found herself in the middle again when she woke up the next morning.

Nathaniel and Elliot were already up.

Confused, Cecilia wondered how she ended up in the middle since she always slept very still, especially with a child beside her.

Thinking she must have been too tired yesterday, Cecilia brushed off the thought, got up, and prepared for breakfast.
