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

Chapter 1406 Meeting Queenie

Charlotte and the others lingered in Cecilia and Elliot's ward, only leaving late into the night.

Being a grown man, Nathaniel naturally didn't share any common topics with them and could only continue his work in another room. Once they finally left, he immediately emerged.

Elliot had already succumbed to sleep due to exhaustion.

Nathaniel approached Cecilia and asked, "Are you tired? Would you like to lie down for a bit?"

Cecilia thought about how he liked to get handsy every time she lay down and blushed.

"I'm not tired. I'd like to sit for a bit longer."

"You're due to give birth soon. Come and lie down for a bit, okay?" Nathaniel gently coaxed.

Cecilia ultimately couldn't resist his persistent coaxing and lay down beside him.

The lights were turned off, leaving only the faint glow from outside filtering into the room.

"Are Cassina and the others all right now?" Cecilia couldn't help but ask.

Nathaniel gently pulled her into his embrace. "Don't worry," he assured her. "I've arranged for someone to watch them covertly.."
