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

Chapter 956 A Cake

By four o’clock in the afternoon, Cecilia had finished all her work for the day and decided to call Nathaniel, who was still in a meeting.

Since Nathaniel wasn’t ready for the public to know his identity yet, he handled every meeting online.

The moment Nathaniel heard the ringtone he’d set specifically for Cecilia, he immediately paused the meeting to take her call.

“What’s wrong?”

“When are you getting off work today?” Cecilia asked.

Nathaniel was under the impression that she had already finished work for the day. Considering his promise to pick her up and drop her off daily, he then said, “Right now.”

“Then send me your location. I’ll come find you,” Cecilia immediately responded.

Hearing that, he was taken aback but still responded, “No need, I’m already in the car. I’m coming to pick you up now.”

“Huh? You’re finishing work this early?” Cecilia sounded somewhat disappointed.
