When Her Death Couldn't Break Him novel Chapter 487

Chapter 487 Preoccupied In Bed
When Cecilia woke up, she found herself nestled in Nathaniel's arms.

She glanced around and noticed that Elliot was nowhere to be found. Confusion filled her eyes.

The slight movement stirred Nathaniel, rousing him from his slumber. Without hesitation, he reached out and pulled Cecilia into his embrace.

“You're awake?”

“Where's Eli?” asked Cecilia.

“Yesterday, I thought the space was too cramped, so I took him to the guest room to sleep,” Nathaniel said calmly.

Cecilia stared at the bed that was more than two meters wide. How could it be considered small?

She got ready to get up.

Nathaniel's arm tightened around her waist, his Adam's apple bobbing slightly as he muttered, “Let's sleep a little longer.”

Cecilia was clad in thin nightwear. They were so close to each other that they could feel the warmth radiating from each other's bodies.

“No, I can't sleep.”

She attempted to pry Nathaniel's hand open.

However, Nathaniel subtly took her small hand into his own.

“Listen to me.”

He leaned close to Cecilia's ear, whispering softly.

The man's alluring voice, coupled with his hot breath falling on her ear, unintentionally sent a shiver down Cecilia's spine.

She lifted her head, the sunlight streaming through the window fell on Nathaniel's handsome face, as if it had cast a layer of golden light on him.

Cecilia's gaze unconsciously lingered on his thin lips, finding it hard to believe that they could be this close to each other now.

In her daze, Nathaniel leaned in and gently kissed her forehead, his large hand tenderly caressing the palm of her hand.

“Ceci, I don't feel well.”

Cecilia was taken aback. “Where do you feel unwell?”

Nathaniel gently pulled her hand downward.

Cecilia's face instantly turned red.

“You per—”

Before she could finish, the ringtone of the phone on the bedside table cut her off.

In an attempt to reach for her phone, Cecilia bit down on Nathaniel's arm. The man grunted in response, finally releasing her.
