Chapter 135 Held Captive
Cecilia hadn’t expected him to be so forthright.
Recalling the past few instances where he ended up stopping halfway after she initiated contact, she didn’t express the same urgency as before. “Is this really a good idea?”
Nathaniel leaned in closer to her. “We’re still married. What’s wrong with that?”
As he spoke, he simultaneously began to undo his bathrobe.
Involuntarily, Cecilia turned her head away, refusing to look at him.
When Nathaniel observed her shyness, a slight movement in his throat betrayed his reaction.
“Don’t worry, I won’t touch you.”
Cecilia froze.
It was just as she suspected.
“If you prefer sleeping here, I’ll take the guestroom.” She then turned to leave.
Since she couldn’t have it, there was no need for her to stay.
Nathaniel swiftly grabbed her wrist and pulled her forcefully. She ended up falling heavily into his arms.
Cecilia wanted to get up, but he firmly held her in his embrace.
“Don’t move, from now on you’re sleeping here too. I can’t sleep alone.”
Since the time Cecilia left, he had been plagued with insomnia. He had consumed a plethora of medications and even consulted with a psychiatrist, but to no avail.
It was only after she returned that he could manage to fall asleep with her in his arms.
Cecilia was somewhat in disbelief when he said that.
“You better keep your promise.”
“Yes.”
Cecilia lay on one side, deliberately using a blanket to create a barrier between the two of them. After closing her eyes, she recalled the doctor’s advice before she returned to Tudela.
The doctor explained that after a man became unconscious, his awareness would essentially be completely lost. If she wanted to achieve her goal, she couldn’t allow him to lose consciousness

As Elliot spoke, he simultaneously used his hands to illustrate his point.

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...
