Chapter 268 Escaping Together
Cecilia’s heart clenched at his words. It was his first time being someone’s husband, but it was also her first time being his wife. Her eyes were filled with indifference. “Nathaniel, go back to Tudela. Don’t make me despise you.”
Nathaniel held her stiffly, his voice hoarse. “I’m not going back. I have all the time and patience in the world.”
As she looked at him, confusion filled Cecilia’s mind. “You’ve never liked me. Why are you so insistent on clinging to me now?”
A lump formed in Nathaniel’s throat. “I never even considered divorce!” he declared, rising from under the covers. “Whenever you need something, come to me. From now on, I’m your landlord.”
Nathaniel left without Cecilia realizing it. It was only after she reached out to her previous landlord in the middle of the night that she discovered the house had already been sold. She had. no choice but to change the electronic lock.
Recently, Cecilia had composed a new piece of music, and a business owner was interested in discussing a potential partnership for copyright royalties. Coincidentally, this person was in the area and had arranged to meet with Cecilia that day.
She prepared early in the morning, ready to seal the deal. Because she had given Nathaniel a significant amount of money, her funds were somewhat tight. Securing this collaboration would substantially boost her annual income.
They agreed to meet at the nearest five–star hotel. The person in charge from the other company. was a man from Lushtopia, known to have some wealth. He preferred to be addressed by his Clusian name, Simon Reynolds. Dressed in a suit, with blond hair and blue eyes, he was a towering figure.
“Ms. Cecille?” The man was surprised and delighted to find that the renowned composer was a young woman.
Cecilia hadn’t expected the other party to speak Clusian. “Yes, that’s me. Mr. Reynolds, nice to
meet you.
She reached out to shake his hand.
The man reciprocated, but there was something unsettling in his gaze.
Just as Cecilia was about to pull her hand back, he tightened his grip, staring straight at her. “I have a soft spot for Aplothian girls, and you’re incredibly beautiful.”
