When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 677

Chapter 677 Just Like Nathaniel
Only then did Elena snap back to her senses and ordered the servants to serve the dishes.

Once dinner was served, Elena, eager to prove that she liked Cecilia, personally served Cecilia food. “Ceci, you're pregnant with twins. Eat up.”

Cecilia found Elena's sudden shift in demeanor quite disconcerting.

After dinner, the family returned to their dwelling to turn in for the night.

Nathaniel brought Cecilia back to their room after tucking the boys into bed.

She lay down next to him and couldn't help asking, “Why do I feel that your mom's acting weird today?”

Nathaniel, holding her close, knew what was going on. “There's nothing weird about it. She's simply trying to win Eli and Jon's favor.”

Realization finally dawned upon Cecilia. “So that's how it is. I was wondering why... Mm...”

Her words were drowned in the man's kiss.

On All Souls' Day, a light rain fell steadily. In the morning, Cecilia dressed the two little ones in dark-colored miniature suits, as they would be meeting several Rainsworth family members who had returned for the occasion.

“Jon, keep a close watch on your brother. There will be a lot of people later. Make sure he doesn't get lost,” said Cecilia.

Jonathan nodded. “Don't worry, Mommy.”

Elliot pouted. “Mommy, I'm not stupid. Why would I get lost?”

Cecilia broke into a smile, patting her son's head. “Okay, okay. My boys are the smartest.”

The boys' faces flushed red as they ran downstairs to wait.

Cecilia wondered why Nathaniel hadn't come out yet. As she entered the room to check, she saw him shirtless, with his sturdy, muscular back facing her.

“Why haven't you put your clothes on yet?”

For some reason, she felt her face burning upon seeing him topless.
