Chapter 1002_When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 1002 No Longer In Love With You

 Cecilia couldn’t help but find Pa’s words of concern almost amusing. “You don’t need to worry about us.”

 With that, she got into the car and left, not sparing a nce back.

 She had anticipated that something might go wrong today, but to her surprise, nothing did.

 As soon as she closed her eyes, Pa’s pitiful voice echoed in her mind. “The weather’s been getting coldertely. Take good care of yourself and the children.”This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.

 Cecilia couldn’t tell if Pa had genuinely changed or was just putting on an act. But regardless of the truth, the damage Pa had caused was something she knew she could never heal from.

 Her resentment toward Pa ran deeper than anyone else’s.

 “We’ve arrived.”

 In a daze, Cecilia heard Sven speaking. When she opened her eyes, they had already arrived at Daltonia Vi.

 Nathaniel, who had returned home early, was seated on the sofa. He nced up as she entered. “How did it go?”

 Cecilia sat beside him and replied, “Not much to say. Thewsuit’s over. They got divorced, and Pa ended up with half the assets.”

 She thought for a moment, realizing Pa likely wouldn’t hand over the money to Cassandra. This, no doubt, was all for Magnus‘ sake. I suppose she’ll be giving the money to Magnus. In a way, I’ve done my part to give back to the Smiths.

 Exhausted, Cecilia wrapped her arms around Nathaniel’s arm and leaned against him.

 “Didn’t you promise to send me off every day? Why did you leave so early this morning?” she asked softly, without a trace of anger in her voice.

 Nathaniel was taken aback by her sudden embrace, momentarily speechless. Instead of replying, he gently stroked her hair. “I’ve found a few projects. Go take a look.”

 Cecilia sighed, “More work for me?” How inhumane of him.

 “Your sales team won’t be dismissed as long as you secure those projects,” Nathaniel uttered.

 Earlier that day, he had gone to the hospital where Zachary conducted his examination. In a week, he would be ready for surgery.

 If something went wrong, he wouldn’t be able to help Cecilia anymore.

 At that time, Cecilia was still carrying his child. He needed to secure a future for both Cecilia and their child.

 “Let me hug you one more time before I start working Cecilia murmured, clinging to him tightly like a child.

 The life she was leading now was what she had always longed for.

 Nathaniel allowed her to hold him for quite some time. Suddenly, he called her name. “Cecilia.”

 “Yeah?”

 “Let’s file for a divorce,” he suggested.

 Cecilia waspletely stunned, unsure where to ce her hands still wrapped around his arm. “Excuse

 It felt as though she were in a dream. He wants to divorce me?

 “I’ve sorted everything out. After this, we’ll get a divorce right away–no cooling–off period,” Nathaniel remarked.

 Cecilia released his arm, clenching her fists until her fingernails sank into her palms. Ouch, it hurts. I’m not dreaming. Has he lost his mind again?

 She raised her hand and ced it on Nathaniel’s forehead. “Have you lost your memory again?”

 Nathaniel tightly held her hand. “Nope.”

 “Then why on earth are you acting crazy?” Cecilia couldn’t believe what he was saying about divorce.

 Nathaniel frowned slightly. “We’re getting a divorce, but I’ll provide you with a substantial amount of alimony. I assure you, you and the kids will never be short of money.”

 Cecilia was nowpletely exasperated. Does that mean he doesn’t want the children either?

 “You can’t just spring a divorce on me without giving me a reason.”

 Previously, he had been adamantly against divorce, but now he was pushing for it. Cecilia found it difficult to understand his logic.

 “I’m no longer in love with you. Does that count as a valid reason?” Nathaniel responded. “You disappeared for years, and I searched for you all this time. I mistakenly thought it was because I liked you. But now, after spending so much time together, I realize that what I felt for you was just a fleeting sense of novelty.”
