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

Chapter 219 Too Late For Anything

“What do you take me for?” Nathaniel asked. Without waiting for Cecilia’s response, he left the bedroom immediately.

Cecilia’s lone figure stood still, contemplating the words he had spoken. Her body wavered slightly.

As she had suspected, her thinking was indeed too naive. Even if she were to spend a month playing the role of Nathaniel’s wife, he still wouldn’t let her and Elliot go.

From the looks of it, she had no other choice but to cut ties with Nathaniel and take Elliot away.

However, she couldn’t trouble Calvin anymore.

Cecilia took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down, contemplating how to leave with Elliot on her own.

Bang!

Downstairs, the sound of Nathaniel slamming the door as he left could be heard.

Cecilia sat alone on a chair, deep in thought. After a long while, she realized that only if Nathaniel allowed her to meet Elliot in private, and take Elliot out of Spring Forest Manor, could she possibly escape.

But how am I supposed to leave Tudela after taking Elliot away?

Quickly, Cecilia thought of someone. She used the phone Sven had given her and dialed at familiar number.

“Hello.” The call was promptly answered, carrying the familiar voice of a middle–aged man.
