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

Chapter 1971 Kneel And Drink

Eric had only just gotten back from Drocver. He'd been wanting to reach out to

Cecilia, but couldn't come up with a good enough reason.

Cecilia gave a small sigh, looking a bit exasperated. "Haven't I been busy lately?"

"What, you don't think I can handle it?" Eric said, lowering his head dramatically.

Cecilia shook her head quickly. "Of course, not. I was just worried you might be

too busy."
