Chapter 1102_When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 1102 Hand In Hand

 At this point in the conversation, it was impossible for Cecilia to refuse any longer. She had run out of excuses.

 The three of them went out together, with Nathaniel sitting squarely between the other two. Nathaniel firmly held onto Cecilia’s hand in front of Nichs, leaning his entire body onto Cecilia.

 Cecilia didn’t reject him, allowing him to lean on her as if she wereforting a child.

 “Ceci, where are we going?” Nichs asked.

 Originally, Cecilia had intended to take Nathaniel to find Zachary directly. Now, it was clear that this was not possible.

 “Maybe we should go back to Daltonia Vi. He might feel a bit happier there,” Cecilia suggested.

 Upon hearing this, Nichs instructed the driver to head in Daltonia Vi’s direction.

 Upon reaching Daltonia Vi, Cecilia said softly to Nathaniel, “We’re home now.”

 Afterward, she got out of the car, hand in hand with Nathaniel.RêAdt??St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

 Nichs trailed behind the two of them.

 He hade to realize, no matter what he did, it seemed incredibly difficult toe in between the two.

 Despite Nathaniel being in his current state, Cecilia still remained unwaveringly by his side.

 Not long after Nathaniel arrived at Daltonia Vi, he started to feel a bit tired. “I need to sleep.”

 “Okay, I’ll take you back to the room to sleep.”

 Cecilia escorted him back to the room they previously shared, helped him to lie down, and tucked him in with the quilt.

 At that moment, she quickly sent a message to Zachary instructing him to secretly enter from the back door of Daltonia Vi. Then, she informed him of where Nathaniel was sleeping.

 Afterward, Cecilia switched off her phone and descended the stairs.

 Nichs was sitting in the living room, oblivious to the fact that Cecilia had secretly sent someone to look for Nathaniel.

 “Is Nathaniel asleep?” asked Nichs.

 Cecilia nodded, “Mmm, he’s asleep right now. I’m not sure when he’ll wake up. If you have other matters to attend to, feel free to leave. Once he wakes up, I’ll take him back to the manor.”

 “It’s the weekend. I’m free,” said Nichs.

 Cecilia knew there was no point in persuading Nichs to leave after what he had said. All she could do was pray that Zachary and the others would be careful when they arrived be somewhat peculiar.

 Cecilia stood up, suggesting. “How about we take a walk outside?”

 “Sure.”

 Nichs wouldn’t turn down Cecilia’s invitation.

 The two of them went out together, leaving someone behind to keep watch, to prevent Nathaniel from waking up.

 There was a gentle breeze outside.

 It had been a while since Nichs and Cecilia had taken a stroll like this.

 Cecilia couldn’t help but ask him, “While I was taking care of Nathaniel recently, I noticed he has quite a few injuries. It seems like they were inflicted by the mansion’s bodyguard.”

 After hearing this, Nichs‘ face remained calm, showing no signs of any emotional changes.

 “You know my brother’s situation as well as I do. It’s possible that he hurt someone first. The bodyguard was there to prevent him and others from getting hurt.

 “So, you allowed that to happen?” Cecilia halted, looking up at him.

 Nichs fell silent for a moment. “Do you really think would hurt my older brother?”

 If it had been in the past, Cecilia would certainly not have believed it, but now, she wasn’t so sure.

 Nichs had spent nearly a decade abroad. And it wasn’t just about the number of years, even a span of two or three years could bring about significant changes in a person.

 “I don’t know,” Cecilia replied honestly.

 Upon hearing the words, a hint of mockery tugged at the corner of Nichs‘ mouth.

 “You’ve changed. In the past, you would have chosen to trust me unconditionally.”

 “We’ve both grown up, and we’ve both changed. We can’t keep living in the past. You’re now engaged to Cassandra and have be the CEO of Orion Corporation. You should prioritize your family andpany.”

 Cecilia couldn’t have been more frank.

 Nichs turned to look back in the direction from which they hade, and a glint appeared in his eyes as if he had discovered something.
