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

Chapter 299 His Amnesia Is Real

In the end, the divorce application fell through.

To be honest, not only was Nathaniel taken aback, but even Mason was astonished.

The usually gentle and weak–willed Cecilia surprisingly behaved like an iron lady that day.

Nathaniel’s bodyguards escorted them to the car. As they drove off, people were still discreetly tailing them.

One could only wonder what new piece of news would explode on the internet that day.

Cecilia sat in the car, her eyes brimming with tears.

Nathaniel sat beside her, his hands resting on his lap at a loss.

“I’ve wronged you in the past.”

After a long while, he spoke up.

Cecilia pursed her lips at his words, remaining utterly silent.

Unable to see or hear her, Nathaniel felt as if a knife had sliced his heart.

“In my recollection, you loved me dearly, and I…” He left out “loved you too“.

He heard nothing but complaints about himself from Cecilia at the City Hall earlier.

It turns out I was bad to her in the past.

Cecilia remained silent, burying her head in her knees, restraining herself from crying.

Over the years, she had been through a lot of unfair situations. Yet, everyone else thought that she had merely basked in Nathaniel’s glory.

Since Nathaniel had lost his sight, her desire for a divorce was nothing short of an ungrateful act.

Perhaps it was because of his blindness, but Nathaniel’s hearing had become extraordinarily sharp. He could faintly hear Cecilia’s soft sobs.

He raised his hand, letting his large palm rest on her shoulder.

“I’m sorry.”

Cecilia’s body stiffened for a moment.

Over the years, Nathaniel had never once apologized to her. Never once had he said he was sorry.
