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

Chapter 190 An Old Wound

It wasn’t until the latter part of the night that everything came to an end.

Before Nathaniel fully regained consciousness, he was tightly embracing Cecilia.

Cecilia glanced at the sterile cup beside him, containing something she had struggled to obtain. She knew then it was time to leave.

She wanted to pull away from Nathaniel’s embrace, but he only held her tighter.

Left with no choice, she had to stealthily hide it under the bed, waiting to take it away after Nathaniel finished his work the next day.

Looking up at Nathaniel, who was soundly asleep, Cecilia was filled with guilt. Silently, she said, “When I apologized to you before, I was sincere. However, it wasn’t because I faked my death and left, but for what happened this time….

He had forcefully impregnated her with Elliot and Jonathan.

Thus, she didn’t feel she betrayed him. Nevertheless, she knew that keeping the truth from him was wrong.

In spite of that, she had to do it. This was the only way she could keep her children by her side.
