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

Chapter 969 1 Made A Promise

Sleeping with Nathaniel was something that Jessica had considered long ago. With Miranda’s suggestion, her desire to win over Nathaniel grew even stronger.

Cecilia never would have imagined that Jessica could be so bold.

That night, she settled into bed quite early, engrossed in strategizing how to snatch the project away from Imminence Corporation.

She initially planned to ask Nathaniel if he had any strategies, but after some thought, she realized that she had to rely on herself for everything and couldn’t completely depend on others.

And so, Cecilia didn’t bring it up with Nathaniel.

“Why aren’t you asleep yet?” Nathaniel asked as he entered the room and heard the sound of Cecilia tapping on her phone.

“I’m not tired, so I decided to play with my phone for a bit,” responded Cecilia.

Nathaniel leaned over, swiftly plucking her phone from her hands. “Come on, time for bed.”

Left with no choice, all Cecilia could do was obediently lie down, close her eyes, and drift off to sleep.

Before she went to sleep, Cecilia’s mind was filled with thoughts of work. The next day, she still didn’t wake up even though it was somewhat late. Nathaniel didn’t bother rousing her but instead stayed at home, waiting for her to rise.
