When Her “Death Couldn’t Break Him 

Chapter 1230 You Can Only Be With Me 

Finished 

Nathaniel’s grip on Cecilia tightened as he looked into her eyes, his expression unreadable. “Of course, you can only be with me, unless I die,” he declared, each word dripping with finality. 

When Nathaniel had first divorced Cecilia, it had been out of a misguided belief that his presence would become a burden. 

In his mind, being a fool was as good as being dead. 

Cecilia’s fists clenched in frustration at his words, and she landed a firm punch on his shoulder. 

“I’m free to be with whoever I want now. You’re not my husband anymore–you have no say in this.” 

Her intention wasn’t to hurt Nathaniel deeply, but rather to vent her frustration. After all, she already had two children with him and another growing inside her 

The idea of seeking someone else to play stepfather to her children seemed absurd. She wasn’t the type to rely on anyone else, especially not a man, to support her or her children. She had built a life of independence. 

But Nathaniel didn’t respond right away. Instead, he stayed silent for a long moment, his gaze unreadable. Without warning, he scooped Cecilia up into his arms and carried her toward the bedroom. 

Even as Cecilia lashed out, angry words spilling from her lips, it was all in vain. Nathaniel wasn’t listening- 

The following day, when Cecilia finally woke up, it was well past ten o’clock. The exhaustion from the previous night lingered heavily in her bones. 

Nathaniel had acted like a man possessed, as if nothing–not even her pregnancy–could temper his relentless desire. It left her drained and overwhelmed. 

She sat up slowly, clutching the blanket tightly around herself, feeling the lingering ache in her body. Nathaniel, who had been up for a while, had mentioned earlier that he was preparing breakfast for her. 

Over half an hour later, he returned, carrying a large bowl of oatmeal. “Here, have some oatmeal first to fill your stomach.” 

He had called the chef to prepare it in the wee hours of the morning. Now was just the right time to eat it. 

Cecilia barely looked at him. She turned her head toward the window. 

Nathaniel, noticing her distant demeanor, felt an unsettling unease in his chest. “Eat your oatmeal. It’s good for you.” His voice was gentle, almost pleading. 

But Cecilia didn’t respond. Instead, she picked up her phone, scrolling through her messages. That was when she noticed the one from Eric. 

Her fingers moved quickly as she typed out her reply: When will you arrive this afternoon? If it’s before five, I’ll 

be at work. 

Nathaniel’s eyes darkened as he set the oatmeal aside. He couldn’t believe she was messaging Eric in front of him, as if he wasn’t even there.

Cecilia’s irritation was clear. “Are you out of your mindi 

Nathaniel let out a self–deprecating laugh. “Yes, I must be.”

He reached out and gently grasped Cecilia’s hand, moving her phone aside. “Ceci, can’t we just live a good life together? I’ll do anything you want from now on. I even have a gift for you,” he said, his voice sincere. 

Just as Nathaniel was about to mention Imminence Corporation, Cecilia’s phone began ringing again. Nathaniel glanced at the screen and saw Eric’s name flashing. His jaw tightened.
