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

Chapter 109 Eli Has Been Taken

Nathaniel was no longer in the mood to continue eating, absolutely fed up with Cecilia’s attitude.

How had I not noticed how glib she was in the past?

Outside, the sky gradually darkened, and oppressive clouds loomed overhead. Following a startling clap of thunder, a bolt of lightning streaked across the sky.

Upon checking her phone, Cecilia realized that it was already eight at night.

Usually, she would call Martha and check on how Jonathan was doing at this time.

Suddenly, a towering figure blocked the light before her. Unbeknownst to her, Nathaniel had. somehow come to stand behind her.

“What are you looking at?”

Immediately, Cecilia put her phone away and turned back to look at him.

The man’s complexion had improved significantly. Despite it all, his eyes remained sharp and piercing.

“You’re full, yes? Can I go back now?”

“Are you in such a rush to go back because Calvin contacted you?” Nathaniel asked, his tone calm. and unhurried.

Cecilia sensed an underlying meaning in his words. “What are you trying to say?”

His remarks are oddly peculiar today, what with the constant mentions of Calvin.

At just that moment, Cecilia’s phone rang.
