Chapter 127 His Words Are Not Trustworthy
Zachary thought she might have missed a spot, so he reached out, intending to lend her a hand.
When Cecilla saw his outstretched hand, she instinctively thought he was going to hit her and dodged reflexively. As a result, the cream ended up on the back of Zachary’s hand.
“I’m sorry.” Cecilla stood up. “I’ll leave right away.”
Zachary knew she had misunderstood and clarified, “I was just trying to help you apply the
cream.
“Thanks, but you don’t have to,” Cecelia said as she prepared to leave.
Zachary didn’t want her to misunderstand him again, so he stopped her.
“Nathaniel asked you to wait for him.”
Cecelia looked at him with an indifferent gaze. “I can wait outside.”
Zachary felt particularly unsettled, seeing her demeanor.
“Don’t be afraid of me. I won’t hurt you again.”
Don’t be afraid? Won’t hurt me again?

Cecelia felt as if she had heard the biggest joke of the century. It was the same thing Zachary used. to say to get her to let her guard down in the past.
“Can you step aside?”
Regardless of whether it hurt or not, she didn’t want to deal with such a person.
Zachary stood at the doorway, blocking her. “Finish applying the medicine first, then you can go.”
Cecelia had no clue what he was up to, fearing his eccentric personality might erupt again. Believing it was better to avoid trouble than invite it, she decided to finish applying the medicine.
“Don’t be so reckless in the future. Jumping from a moving car is dangerous. Luckily, you only
minor injuries this time,” Zachary said, concern evident in his eyes.
Cecelia remained silent.
She had long since seen through Zachary’s unpredictable mood swings.
She swiftly applied the medicine. “Mr. Sinclair, I’m done. Can I leave now?”
When Zachary met her clear yet distant gaze, he felt something stab his heart.
“Just stay here. I promise I won’t do anything to you, okay?”

Chapter 127 His Words Are Not Trustworthy
He tried his best to soften his voice.
Cecilla’s gaze dimmed for a moment. She knew then that his words couldn’t be trusted.

However, what could she do? She was on his turf, and he was Nathaniel’s close friend. There was no doubt she couldn’t leave.
Hence, she stopped speaking and didn’t bring up her desire to leave either.
Seeing she had no intention of leaving, Zachary went to get some cream. After packing it, he handed it to her.
“Remember to apply it three times daily, and you won’t be left with any scars.”
Had it not been for his past actions, Cecelia would have certainly thought of him as a kind and competent doctor.
“Thank you.” Cecelia accepted the medicine.
Zachary noticed her guard against him had dropped and wanted to clarify his actions in the past but as the words reached the tip of his tongue, he found himself unable to voice them out.
Mistakenly identifying my savior, lashing out harshly at her and even causing undue harm… Where do I
even start?
Therefore, Zachary adopted a different approach.
“Cecelia, do you still remember saving someone back when you were in university?”
How could I possibly forget? Had it not been for saving him, he wouldn’t have repaid kindness with enmity, causing lasting damage to my ears.

YAY!!Finally "she's" going down! Thank you for the update....
I have read some books that the protagonist would have put the world upside down and never be so restless like Nathaniel....
Good job!!! Nathaniel found her!!! Let’s make this família been together!!!...
I’m afraid Nathaniel is weaker than I thought. I can’t believe he lost the opportunity to save Cecilia....
I’m excited to know what is Nathaniel going to do with Cassandra and Stella at this time. Cassandra is not a Rainworth anymore. It’s time to pay the price. Why nobody had warned Nathaniel yet? It’s time to gain Cecilia’s heart forever. I wish Quennie and Nathaniel join their forces to save her and this family. Hopefully, it becomes a great end....
