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

Chapter 45 Where Does That Confidence Come From

Stella happened to catch the last sentence, which struck her as rather odd.

Mason wasn’t one to meddle in other’s affairs. After a couple of teasing remarks, he didn’t disclose to Stella about Cecilia’s return.

Stella knew better than to press further, yet deep down, she harbored resentment toward Mason. She headed straight for Nathaniel.

“Nathaniel, Easter Day is approaching. Mdm. Elena has invited us to join her for dinner tonight.”

The woman Stella referred to was actually Nathaniel’s mother.

Without a doubt, she were once again urging the couple to get married and to start a family soon.

Without lifting his head, Nathaniel responded, “Got it.”

Upon hearing this, Stella took a seat on the sofa in the office.

“I don’t have much to do today, so I’ll be waiting for you here.”

Nathaniel looked at her with narrowed eyes. “You seem to have a lot of free time?”

Stella was taken aback.

Before she could respond, Nathaniel curtly and coldly stated, “I’m not used to having outsiders around when I’m working.”
