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

Chapter 449 Not Happy

Feigning ignorance of Cecilia’s presence, Nathaniel strode in quickly and set down the gift bag he was carrying.

Cecilia asked in confusion, “What are you doing with my stuff?”

She descended the stairs and stole a glance at the inside of the bag. The box was still there.

“Have you looked at it?” Cecilia asked again.

Nathaniel stood still. “No, I can’t see.

However, Cecilia didn’t believe him. He had clearly picked the gift up and taken it outside. Perhaps, he had already asked someone to help him take a look.

“Do you want to know what’s inside?” Cecilia asked him deliberately.

Nathaniel’s handsome eyebrows slightly raised. “No.”

Cecilia didn’t show any signs of anger either. After sitting down, she opened the box.

“The gift your brother gave me is quite valuable. It is a gold pendant. Is it okay if I keep it?”

Nathaniel listened in silence as she deliberately deceived him. However, he couldn’t expose her lies.
