When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 914 Determined To Reveal The Truth

Inside the ward, Nathaniel extended his hand toward Cecilia.

Cecilia placed her hand on his naturally. “Does your head still hurt?”

“It doesn’t hurt anymore, but I can use a hug,” he replied.

Cecilia sat on the bed and embraced him. “If I accidentally touch your wound, you must tell me.”

“I know, I’m not that foolish,” Nathaniel said, his lips curling up into a smirk.

He hadn’t felt this happy in a long time.

The two of them were locked in an embrace, oblivious to the passage of time. Even when the door was pushed open from the outside, they were still lost in their own world.

“Daddy, you’re a grown man. Why do you still need Mommy to hold you?”

When the childish voice rang out, Cecilia turned toward the door. There, she saw Sven leading Elliot, standing at the entrance.

Elliot was flabbergasted. “Mommy, you guys are too much! You’re sneaking hugs in the hospital, yet you make me go to school even during holidays.”

When Cecilia came back to her senses, she immediately let go of Nathaniel.

“Um…”

She had no idea how to explain herself. Elliot’s shining eyes seemed to indicate that he could see through everything.

“Seems like I really am someone unimportant.” Elliot pouted.

Immediately, Cecilia rose to her feet and approached him. “Sweetie, I was wrong. How are you unimportant?”

Nathaniel’s eyebrows furrowed when he felt Cecelia withdrawing her embrace.

Why does this little brat have to show up at this moment and disrupt my plans?

Elliot was satisfied, thinking to himself that him and Jonathan were indeed the most important people to Cecilia.

“Mommy, don’t lie to me anymore, okay?”

“All right,” Cecilia agreed without hesitation.

Elliot finally stopped acting coy. He then walked toward Nathaniel and asked, “Daddy, are you feeling better?”

“Yes, I’m feeling better now,” Nathaniel replied.

“Daddy, do you want me to blow on it for you? When I got cut by a knife before, Mommy blew on it and Elliot looked on with deep concern.This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

Nathaniel’s heart inexplicably softened. “It’s okay, I’m not in pain.”

As Nathaniel and Elliot talked to each other, Cecilia and Sven stepped outside.

Sven said to Cecilia, “I really had no Race. Eli insisted on coming.”

He could be indifferent to everyone else, but he simply couldn’t bring himself to refuse the affectionate child.

Cecilia didn’t mean to blame him. “No worries, I also forgot that Eli didn’t have school today. Have you guys had breakfast yet?”

Sven nodded. “Yes.”

“That’s good then.”

As the two were engrossed in conversation, Jessica, clad in her hospital gown, was hobbling along the wall for support not far away. With a sarcastic tone, she mocked, “Isn’t one man enough for you? Are you planning to cheat on Nathaniel now?”

Jessica’s voice was quite loud. Both Cecilia and Sven heard her loud and clear.

Cecilia instantly glanced at her. “Jessica, it seems your leg injury isn’t as severe as I thought.”

Cecilia felt that she should have kicked Jessica’s mouth yesterday.

Upon hearing these words, Jessica showed no fear. On the contrary, she retorted, “I should thank you, Cecilia. If it weren’t for those extra kicks you gave me, I wouldn’t have ended up in this state.”

At that moment, Jessica still didn’t realize that they might not be able to escape if it weren’t for Cecilia.

Cecilia couldn’t be bothered to explain herself.

“You’re welcome.”

Jessica’s expression became even more unpleasant.

Had it not been for Nathaniel’s strict instructions forbidding her from sharing the recent events with others, she would have informed the Rainsworth family long ago.

However, she was sure that the child Cecilia was carrying wasn’t Nathaniel’s. She was determined to find the right moment to reveal this truth to everyone.

“Cecilia, no need for the sarcasm. The reason I’m here is because Aunt Elena called me. She insisted that you and Nathaniel must return home tonight with the kids.”
