Chapter 111 Let Us Go Home
+5 Pearls
Nathaniel’s resentment wasn’t just because the Smith family tricked him into marriage back then, but also the fact that Cecilia faked her death and spent so many years living together with Calvin abroad.
Cecilia’s eyes were stained with pain. “You know full well that what happened back then had nothing to do with me.”
“But you were one of the beneficiaries, weren’t you?” Nathaniel’s voice was laced with a hint of suppressed anger.
The matter that angered him was that Cecilia only felt that she owed him for tricking him into marriage back then, mentioning nary a word about her faking her death, Calvin, or the child.
Following his words, Cecilia found herself left without a retort.
After a prolonged silence, Nathaniel went to the balcony alone and again lit a cigarette..
In the biting wind, he couldn’t stop coughing, his eyes. At some point, his eyes had taken on a reddish hue and somewhat stung-
He didn’t know why he chose to keep Cecilia with him in such a manner either.
Perhaps it was because he wasn’t willing to accept the truth, unable to accept that she had gotten together with another man when he had searching relentlessly for her for four to five years.
Maybe he couldn’t come to terms with the fact that the girl who had loved him for more than a decade suddenly fell out of love with him and chose to leave.
Even now, I can still remember the first time Cecilia proposed divorce and how she left with such nonchalance. At that time, I never truly believed that she would let go of me. It’s only now that I understand that she wasn’t throwing a tantrum. Instead, her departure was one she had contemplated and planned for a long time.
At those thoughts, Nathaniel snuffed out the cigarette and entered the ward again, radiating an aura of chilliness.
“Come, let’s go home.”
Go home… Do I still have a home?
Cecilia was slightly lost.
They both got into the car.
While driving, Nathaniel couldn’t help but cough non–stop.
Yet, Cecilia turned a deaf ear to it, looking out at the raindrops sliding down the window.
When a person doesn’t love someone anymore, perhaps it’s manifested in the indifference she’s showing now.

Chapter 111 Let Us Go Home
+5 Pearls
Nathaniel gazed into the rearview mirror. Her cold and indifferent expression sent a stab of paint to his heart.
After the long night, Cecilia retired in the room she occupied in the past..
The following morning, by the time she had awoken and freshened up, breakfast was already served in the dining room.
In the past, she had never eaten a meal Nathaniel served, not even takeout.
“I had Mason buy the food. Anything that’s needed in the future, just tell him.”
Nathaniel stepped forward, pulled out a chair, and sat down. All the while, he spoke as naturally as he did in the past.
Cecilia seated herself as far away from him as possible. As her gaze fell onto the trash can nearby, she glimpsed the black and white photo and urn in it.
“Okay.”
Last night, she spent a long time mulling things over.
As long as Elliot was safe, she decided that she could stay there for then. It would also be the perfect opportunity to find a way to obtain Nathaniel’s sperm. Once she had accomplished that, she could then figure out a way to leave.

The readers' comments on the novel: When Her Death Couldn't Break Him
Thank you 😊 for the work...
Save us the distress from waiting or we are opting for others...
Hi, good morning Could you please send more chapters? To much books reading and I always forgot the story when it comes. All characters have the same name ( Cecilia, Nathaniel, Madaline, Fabian… )and lots of the names are similar in the same story, so I got confused when I don’t have all story already written. If at least you can send 10 chapters a day…. This story is as good as Mission to Remarry I can’t wait for finish it. But let’s have a great finish and a final chapter with one year of deepest love development. Thank you! Please,please, please!!!!...
What's going on? Why so few chapters?...
This chapter is completely useless!...
Why all chapters are not until the end? The new ones are never the continuation of the previous one. Also, Could you please do not use the "swnovel.net" as a water mark on the paragraphs? I use a listening device and those paragraphs are not readable....
More chapters, please 🙏...
What's going on? Is not Cassandra married? What is she doing in her mother's House?...
Waiting for more chapters...
Thank you for the update and anticipate more. Love Elliot in this novel the most <3...
