When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 1731

Chapter 1731 Replace Her
When Nathaniel descended the stairs, he caught sight of Charlotte's cheerful silhouette.

His sharp eyebrows arched slightly. “Is there some good news today?”

Cecilia couldn't help but chuckle. “Yes, Lottie is going on a date.”

A date...

Nathaniel looked at Cecilia, realizing it had been a long time since they had been on a date together. Now, they were even sleeping in separate rooms.

“Ceci.”

“Hmm?” Cecilia looked at him, puzzled.

“How about we go out for a walk today?” Nathaniel suggested.

Shaking her head, Cecilia replied, “No, there's still a ton of work to be done at the office. I can't just leave right now. Besides, I haven't finished gathering evidence on Cassandra's previous asset transfers within the company.”

Nathaniel felt somewhat helpless.

He hadn't expected that when it came to work, Cecilia was even more dedicated than he was.

“All right, once you're done with your work, let's go explore around.”

Cecilia nodded. “All right.”

Nathaniel escorted her to Jamieson Group.

When she got out of the car, he couldn't help but grasp her hand.

Baffled, Cecilia glanced back at him. “What's wrong? Is there anything else?”

Nathaniel gazed intently at her face. “Nothing, I'll pick you up tonight.”

“You can head back first. No need to have the driver come here just for me. I can make my way back on my own.”

Her politeness created an air of distance around her.

Nathaniel's Adam's apple bobbed subtly in his throat, and he forced a smile. “All right, whatever you say.”
