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

Chapter 98 Exceptionally Exhausted

In the end, Cecilia had no choice but to give up for the time being

Perhaps due to the prolonged struggle, she was exceptionally exhausted and eventually succumbed to sleep.

The following day, sunlight landed on their faces.

How unusual. I’ve never slept so well before. Nathaniel opened his eyes, looking down at Cecilia, who was curled up in his arms. His gaze, usually cold, softened remarkably at that moment.

The air conditioning was turned on inside the room. Seeing her shiver, Nathaniel quietly reached out to fetch a jacket to drape over her.

At that moment, Cecilia opened her eyes.

Upon seeing Nathaniel’s gentle eyes, she blurted out, “Nathaniel.”

Nathaniel was taken aback.

Nathaniel watched her panic, swiftly pulling her up. “What did you just call me?”

He stood up, his words laced with sarcasm. “Ms. Smith, you really do have a knack for forgetting, don’t you?”

Cecilia realized she had misjudged the situation as a hint of disappointment flickered in her eyes.

Ever since she started attending university, Nathaniel’s demeanor drastically changed when he joined Rainsworth Group. He became particularly indifferent.
