Chapter 324 Old Habits
Late at night, after ensuring Martha was resting, Cecilia went to her room and lay down. She hadn’t been asleep for long when suddenly, she felt a hand wrap around her from behind. “Ceci,” a voice whispered.
Nathaniel had somehow entered her room. One hand held her firmly, while the other rested on her lower abdomen.
“Nathaniel, what are you doing!”
De losing his memory, Nathaniel hadn’t lost his old habits, especially his tendency to slip
into other people’s rooms uninvited–a habit he clearly hadn’t forgotten.
Nathaniel hadn’t planned on touching her, particularly considering her early pregnancy, made any such action unthinkable.

But as he remembered the clandestine meeting between Calvin and Cecilia, and Mason’s words, Nathaniel’s thin lips found their way to the back of her ear.
His hot breath sent a shiver down Cecilia’s spine. “Nathaniel, you wouldn’t dare!” she protested, trying to sound firm.
The man paused, his breath still against her ear, before earnestly whispering something. The words made Cecilia’s eyes widen in shock.
Within moments, her face flushed a deep red, her cheeks burning like a ripe apple. “I don’t need that!” she snapped, quickly covering her mouth with her hand, worried that Martha might overhear from the next room.
The room was completely dark, and yet, under the faint light reflecting off the snow outside, Cecilia could just make out Nathaniel’s broad, muscular upper body. She realized with a jolt that he wasn’t wearing any clothes..
“Get out… now,” she stammered, her voice trembling with fear and urgency.
Nathaniel paused again, leaning even closer to her ear. “If you ever need something, tell me in private. Don’t go looking for other men,” he whispered, his tone possessive.
“Get out of here, now!” Cecilia demanded, pulling the blanket tighter around herself and curling up under it.
As Nathaniel finally left, she noticed the fading bruise on his waist, a mark she had left on him–a reminder of how she had once thought that the amnesiac, blind Nathaniel was at her mercy. But now, she realized that dealing with Nathaniel after his memory loss was proving to be far more challenging than she had anticipated.
Before his amnesia, Nathaniel had been rebellious and untamed, always exuding an air of superiority as if he were doing others a favor just by being present. Now, without his memories, he was utterly shameless.
As she was about to get out of bed, a message from Calvin caught her eye: Are you free this afternoon? Want to come with me to see Eli? He texted me saying he wants to meet.
