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

Chapter 46 What Did You Call Me

Having been an orphan all her life, the one thing she despised the most was being looked down upon by others.

Zachary’s words reminded her of the countless times she had embarrassed herself trying to fit in with the wealthy elite years ago. The humiliation she endured and the loss of face were beyond measure.

“Once I become lady of the Rainsworth family, no one will dare to look down on me!”

It seemed that Stella wasn’t aware of Cecilia’s return as she wasn’t mentioned.

Zachary had been waiting outside Ninth Ville.

“Mr. Zachary, Ms. Smith hasn’t stepped out at all today. Should I knock on the door?” The bodyguard didn’t dare to keep him waiting.

Yet, Zachary declined. “No need, I’ll just wait for her here.”

Upon learning of Cecilia’s return yesterday, he experienced an unprecedented surge of excitement. He was so eager to find her immediately, to ask her about the events of the past.

However, every time he thought about how he had mistreated Cecilia in the past, he found it hard to approach her casually.

He ended up waiting for over two hours.
