Chapter 164 He Does Not Like Women
Under the moonlight, Cecilia looked up at the face she had adored for half her life. “Mr. Rainsworth, didn’t we have an agreement?”
The hand that Nathaniel had placed on her face froze as he met meeting her clear, shining eyes.
It seemed as though she could burst into tears any second now.
Nathaniel couldn’t fathom why, but a bitterness welled up within him. He withdrew his hand, rose from the bed, and left the ward without a word.
Once outside, he still couldn’t forget the unfamiliar look in Cecilia’s eyes when she looked at him.
Mr. Rainsworth?
He sat in the car, smoking a cigarette, and dialed Mason’s number. “What day is it today?”
It was two in the morning when Mason was roused from his sleep, only to be met with a question that came out of the blue.
He paused to think, unable to recall any tasks for the day, leaving him with no choice but to get up and check.
There weren’t any collaborative projects today, nor was it any kind of holiday.
By chance, he spotted a trending birthday topic on his computer and realized it was Cecilia’s birthday.
Mason gave Nathaniel a call.
“Mr. Rainsworth, today is Ms. Smith’s birthday.”
When Cecilia married Nathaniel, he had done some homework.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have known about Cecilia’s birthday.
Nathaniel genuinely hadn’t anticipated it, nor could he recall Cecilia’s birthday.
He finally realized why Cecilia had given him such an attitude and why Calvin had chosen to return last night..
Noticing that Nathaniel had yet to respond, Mason asked, “Mr. Rainsworth, should I prepare a gift?”
Nathaniel only regained his senses when the cigarette singed his fingers.
“No.”
He then hung up the phone.

Chapter 164 He Does Not Like Women
Nathaniel spent the entire night seated in the car..
The following day, at the crack of dawn, he knocked and entered Cecilia’s ward.
She could be discharged from the hospital at any time.
“Let’s
Cecilia looked at him, puzzled. “Where are we going?”
“Didn’t you say you wanted to see the kid?”
Suddenly, a sparkle appeared in Cecilia’s eyes.
“Thank you…”
As she voiced her words of gratitude, she felt it was rather abrupt.
Why should she thank the man who had taken her son away?
“You’re welcome,” he responded casually.
The atmosphere in the car had noticeably improved.
At Spring Forest Manor, Elliot’s health condition had stabilized. His days were relatively comfortable, with plenty to eat and drink.
He merely wondered when his despicable father would deign to see him again.
+5 Pearls
He remembered that today was Cecilia’s birthday, and he wasn’t sure if Nathaniel would celebrate it with her.
“When will he come to see me again?”
His large eyes were fixed on the nanny.
The nanny wasn’t sure, but after the last time Nathaniel visited and all the commotion that ensued, she suspected he probably wouldn’t want to come again.
“I don’t know.”
Elliot let out a sigh. “Can I give him a call?”
Eating and drinking here every day was becoming too monotonous.
He wanted to give Nathaniel a hard time.
The nanny looked troubled. “I don’t have the authority to call Mr. Rainsworth.”
Fearing the child might not understand, she rephrased her explanation.

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...
