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

Chapter 1896

Chapter 1896 Just A Kiss

"How will you handle Magnus then?" Nathaniel asked seriously

He knew that Cecilia wasn't helping Magnus out of some deep affection, but rather for the sake of Regas. Magnus was, after all, Regas' only son.

"I haven't figured it out yet," Cecilia replied, closing her eyes to rest for a bit. When she opened them, she said, "I'm not in a rush. I need to look into it more."

Magnus hadn't reached out in so long, and now out of nowhere, he wanted her to set him up with someone. It made her suspicious-like there was something else going on beneath the surface.

"Fair enough."

They soon reached the hospital, and the car came to a stop.

Just as Cecilia was about to step out, Nathaniel grabbed her hand. His deep,

steady eyes locked onto hers. "Cecilia," he said softly.

"What is it? Something else?" she asked, confused.

"Come a little closer."

She leaned in without questioning him.

His lips brushed gently against her forehead.

The driver, sensing the moment, politely turned his gaze away.
