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

Chapter 127 His Words Are Not Trustworthy

Zachary thought she might have missed a spot, so he reached out, intending to lend her a hand.

When Cecilla saw his outstretched hand, she instinctively thought he was going to hit her and dodged reflexively. As a result, the cream ended up on the back of Zachary’s hand.

“I’m sorry.” Cecilla stood up. “I’ll leave right away.”

Zachary knew she had misunderstood and clarified, “I was just trying to help you apply the cream.

“Thanks, but you don’t have to,” Cecelia said as she prepared to leave.

Zachary didn’t want her to misunderstand him again, so he stopped her.

“Nathaniel asked you to wait for him.”

Cecelia looked at him with an indifferent gaze. “I can wait outside.”

Zachary felt particularly unsettled, seeing her demeanor.

“Don’t be afraid of me. I won’t hurt you again.”

Don’t be afraid? Won’t hurt me again?

Cecelia felt as if she had heard the biggest joke of the century. It was the same thing Zachary used. to say to get her to let her guard down in the past.
