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

Chapter 281 Divorce

Nathaniel kissed Cecilia, wishing nothing more than to confine her forever in his embrace, as he whispered roughly in her ear, “What do you want from me for you to drop all this? Tell me what you want! I’ll do anything as long as you drop this silliness!”

Nathaniel was not afraid of losing, but rather, he simply believed he could not afford to lose.

If the court allowed their divorce, he had no reason left to forcibly keep her by his side.

“All you have to do is ask, and everything I have, I’ll give to you!” He repeated in her ear over and

Cecilia struggled in his arms.

Upon noticing her silence, Nathaniel held her tightly in his embrace and asked in a deep voice, “Has Calvin contacted you?”

Cecilia blocked him, “I don’t want anything from you…”

Nathaniel did not want to believe her.

He held onto Cecilia, refusing to let her go.
