When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 1937

Chapter 1937 True Colors
Magnus and Chelsea walked over toward Cecilia.

As soon as she saw her, Chelsea smiled and greeted her warmly. “Cecilia.”

Magnus echoed the greeting. “Cecilia.”

Cecilia's expression was slightly stiff as she gave a polite nod. “When did you two meet?”

“Not too long ago,” Chelsea replied. “If it hadn't been for Magnus, I might've been fooled by a complete hypocrite.”

Cecilia blinked, taken aback. “What do you mean?”

Magnus did something good?

Chelsea went on to explain how she had nearly been deceived by Allen—a man who, as it turned out, was still married.

“He never even mentioned his wife,” Chelsea said, voice tight with frustration. “He was already out looking for a new partner before finalizing the divorce, claiming he had no feelings left for her.”

As Cecilia listened, her opinion of Magnus subtly shifted.

In this instance, at least, he had done something right.

Yet deep down, Cecilia wanted to tell Chelsea the truth—that her brother was no better than that so-called hypocrite. If anything, Magnus was worse. A shameless scoundrel.

There had been a time, after all, when Magnus was so desperate and broke that he hadn't hesitated to sell out his own sister.

If Chelsea ever married him, Cecilia couldn't even begin to imagine the kind of future that would await her.

“Cecilia, why didn't you tell me you'd saved Chelsea too?” Magnus said with a chuckle. “I just found out. Looks like we really are siblings.”

Cecilia's expression stiffened even more.

He was already calling Chelsea by her first name. Their relationship was progressing fast.

“Yeah... you did well this time, helping Chelsea,” she said, forcing a smile. In front of Magnus, she couldn't bring herself to reveal his true character to Chelsea. But if she said nothing, Chelsea might fall for him.
