When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel)

Chapter 37 He Refuses To Believe

A frail and sweet voice echoed from the other end of the video, where a little boy, the spitting image of Jonathan, was lying on a hospital bed. His face was pale, and he was weakly calling out to Cecilia.

A wave of tenderness washed over Cecilia.

“Muacks, Eli!”

Elliot’s eyes held a hint of melancholy as he complained, “Mommy, you didn’t even call me last night to say goodnight.”

Compared to her elder son, Jonathan, who was considerate and mature, Elliot was a typical child who loved to be pampered and often lacked a sense of security at least, that was how Cecilia saw it.

“Sorry, I forgot, sweetie. Don’t be mad, okay, Eli?”

Given that Elliot had always been frail since childhood and was now diagnosed with leukemia, Cecilia paid him extra attention.

Elliot pouted. “I’ll let you off the hook this time. There won’t be a next time, you know.”

Watching the little one acting cute, the dark cloud hanging over Cecilia was instantly swept away, and she found herself repeatedly nodding in agreement.

“Where are Martha and Jonathan?” Cecilia asked.

Upon hearing this, Elliot feigned annoyance. “Had I known you were going to ask about them, I wouldn’t have bothered calling you.”

Cecilia was left in a state of bemusement at how her younger son played the part of scorned lover so well.
