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

Chapter 162 Master Of Deception

“I’ll give you a minute to come out now,” Nathaniel’s commanding voice sounded through the phone.

Come out now?

Cecilia tightened her grip on the phone. She glanced out the window, “Are you outside?”

“What do you think?” Nathaniel responded.

He cut the call without another word.

Cecilia stared at her phone. Then, she turned to Calvin and said in an apologetic tone. “I’m sorry. Something unexpected came up, and I need to go home.”

Calvin wanted to ask her what was going on, but seeing her anxious demeanor, he didn’t press the matter. He simply nodded and said, “Alright, be careful.”

Cecilia grabbed her bags and left swiftly.

Silently, Calvin rose from his seat and moved towards the balcony. He watched as her silhouette vanished from his sight. A complex mix of emotions coursed through him.

Outside the mansion, a matte black Cadillac was parked by the gate, blending seamlessly into the night.

Cecilia approached the car uncertainly.

The car window lowered, revealing Nathaniel seated in the driver’s seat. His expression was steely, and his aura emitted a chill that seemed to lower the temperature within the car.

He glanced at Cecilia, coldly. “Get in the car.”
