Chapter 124 Her Real Motive
After escorting Cecilia to the entrance of Nathaniel’s office, Mason left.
The door was not closed, and Cecilia gently pushed it open.
Nathaniel was seated in his chair, engrossed in reading a document.
Cecilia couldn’t deny that there was something incredibly attractive about a handsome man when he was deeply engrossed in his work.
She thought back and realized that she must have been deceived by his handsome face initially.
Nathaniel knew she had arrived, yet he didn’t lift his head. “Come here.”
Cecilia walked over, asking, “Is there something you need?”
“From now on, you won’t have to work downstairs.”
Nathaniel put down his documents, looking at her. “This will be
Cecilia asked in confusion, “Why?”
“No particular reason. This is the company’s arrangement.”
your office.”
To say it was the company’s arrangement, one might as well say that it was Nathaniel’s.
Nevertheless, Cecilia knew she was in no place to refuse.
“Alright.”
This is for the better anyway, as it offers me more opportunities to get closer to him.
Cecilia analyzed that the possibility of getting pregnant from their encounter the night before was extremely low.
“I’ll bring up my computer,” said Cecilia.
Before she could leave, her personal belongings, including her computer, had already been
delivered to the office. The movers had even gone to the extent of moving her desk in as well.
Nathaniel rose and made his way to her side, observing her office supplies.
“I’m curious. What have you been so busy with at the office these past few days?”
Back when Cecilia used to be a housewife, she had never ventured out to work and all she did was take care of his needs.
Cecilia turned to look at him. “Do
you want to know? I can show you.”

Chapter 124 Her Real Motive
Otherwise, there was no reason for him to endure the day before.
As expected, Nathaniel showed interest. “Alright.”
Under his intense gaze, Cecilia settled into her seat and opened her laptop.
She showed him the work she did when she was bored.
When Nathaniel cast a glance, he was somewhat taken aback, as there were quite a few collaborative project files on Cecilia’s computer.
When did she learn to write these?
Looking up. Cecilia could clearly see the distinct features of Nathaniel’s profile. She took a deep breath before slowly speaking, “You must have been quite uncomfortable last night, weren’t you?”
Nathaniel’s body stiffened slightly, as he lowered his gaze to meet hers, a lump forming in his
throat..
Cecilia adjusted her position slightly, incidentally, bringing herself closer to his lips.
“Actually, I was quite uncomfortable too.”
Nathaniel’s eyes were filled with curiosity as he furrowed his brows.
It wasn’t like her to say something like that.
He remembered how, after they had gotten married, even the slightest touch of her hand against his would cause her face to flush.
At that moment, even though Cecilia put on a seasoned facade, Nathaniel saw right through her.
His hand rested on her shoulder, causing her body to shudder by reflex.
Such a reaction isn’t fooling anyone.

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...
