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

Chapter 122 Drop The Lawsuit

“You can head back now. I’ll be attending the company’s anniversary celebration tonight,” Nathaniel spoke impatiently.

“All right.” After leaving breakfast behind, Stella cast a smug glance at Cecilia before departing.

When Nathaniel turned around, sure enough, Cecilia was standing right behind him. For some reason, he felt a twinge of guilt. “When did you wake up?”

Cecilia’s expression was calm. “When Stella proposed to you. Congratulations to both of you.”

Nathaniel’s heart tightened. The room felt like it froze for a few seconds. He looked at her intently with his dark eyes. “If you have any objections, say them now.”

All she had to do was tell him not to marry Stella, and he would agree. But Cecilia just shook her head and repeated, “Congratulations to both of you. I’ll cooperate on the divorce proceedings. But on one condition–you give Elliot back to me.”

Nathaniel’s heart sank. He realized that Cecilia didn’t care about him anymore. She wasn’t bothered about him being with someone else or even marrying another woman.
