Chapter 189 The Next Step

Cecilia found herself held by him, standing rigidly in place..

After a long while, she shook her head. “I don’t hate you.”

That was the truth.

Upon hearing her words, Nathaniel held her even tighter, his large hand resting on her face, gently caressing it.

It was only now then that he could truly feel that Cecilia still belonged to him.

Cecilia knew the time was right. She lifted her gaze to Nathaniel, standing on her tiptoes. Her red lips brushed against his Adam’s apple, then moved upward, grazing his lips.

Regardless of her intentions at the moment, he desired her that night.
