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

Chapter 419 Bite Me

Listening to Elliot’s voice, Cecilia noticed that it lacked the usual playful tone and was instead filled with caution. She quickly reassured him, “I was really busy today and completely forgot to call you. I’m so sorry, Sweetie. Can I come see you tomorrow?”

Upon hearing her words, Elliot couldn’t help but let out a sigh of relief. “It’s all right, Mommy. You should focus on your work. I’m doing just fine in the hospital, so you don’t need to go through the trouble of coming here.”

In the past, Elliot would have insisted on Cecilia coming over to keep him company right away. Now, he was as considerate as Jonathan, and that realization brought a sharp pang to Cecilia’s heart. She quietly resolved to visit Elliot the next day, determined to make it up to him.

After chatting for a while, Cecilia reluctantly ended the call. She lay down on the couch, trying to relax, but her thoughts were still on her children.

Suddenly, a tall figure appeared before her, blocking the light and casting a shadow over her. Cecilia furrowed her brows slightly as she opened her eyes, only to find Nathaniel standing nearby. She wasn’t sure how long he had been there.

“Is something wrong?” Cecilia asked, puzzled by his sudden presence.

“Before dinner, did you really just go for a walk?” Nathaniel asked, his tone serious.

Cecilia hesitated but eventually responded, “Yes. What’s wrong with that?”

“It’s nothing,” Nathaniel replied, though his expression suggested otherwise.
