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

Chapter 1260 Having A Chat

Cecilia further explained, “If not for Eli, I wouldn’t have let you stay. So, you ought to behave yourself and sleep on the couch.”

Nathaniel knew she was still upset about what had happened last time.

“All right, I’ll sleep on the couch,” he agreed without hesitation.

Only after this did Cecilia return to her bedroom. After freshening up, she laid down to rest.

During the late hours of the night, she was plagued by nightmares, mumbling in her sleep.

Nathaniel had been lying on the couch, not sleeping at all. Upon hearing Cecilia talking while asleep, he immediately got up.

Fortunately, the door to Cecilia’s bedroom was left open. He went to the bedside, taking hold of Cecilia’s hand. “Ceci, what’s wrong?” he asked.
