Chapter 708 Keeping A Distance
At the airport exit, a steady stream of passengers were seen departing.
Without giving it much thought, Calvin opened the car door and stepped out.
After a moment of hesitation, Yannick also followed and left.
Two tall and strikingly handsome men stood next to a multi-million dollar luxury car, attracting more than a few sidelong glances.
Calvin sent a message to Cecilia that read: Have you gotten off the plane?
Soon after, Cecilia replied: Yeah. I'll be out in a moment.
Calvin: All right. I'll be waiting for you at the exit.
A casual smile played at the corners of Calvin's mouth as he absentmindedly shut off his phone.
Not long after, he spotted Cecilia in the crowd. The woman was dressed in a begonia-colored long dress, her long hair draped over her shoulders, and her skin was as white as snow. She stood out remarkably among the crowd.
Years ago, Yannick had caught a glimpse of Cecilia at a gathering. At that moment, upon seeing her again, he recognized her instantly. Back then, she was just a young girl. When he saw her that day, she had certainly grown into an attractive woman.
However, there was something off about her face. He thought her face seemed a bit strange.
That day, Cecilia had let her hair down, covering the scar on her right side with some powder. She didn't want to frighten the little ones.
As the woman approached, both Calvin and Yannick noticed the wound the size of a palm imprinted on her face.
Calvin's pupils abruptly narrowed, his long, straight legs striding toward Cecilia. He reached out to take her suitcase. “What happened to your face?”
Calvin's voice carried a hint of concealed anger. It hasn't been long since I last saw her. Why is her face wounded? When she was by my side, not a single strand of her hair was touched by anyone else. Why has her face wounded now that she's with Nathaniel?
Cecilia found her hands empty, raising her head to meet Calvin's concerned gaze. Immediately, she said, “It's a long story. Let's talk about it once we're in the car. Aren't you still recovering? How come you're here to pick me up from the airport?”
On the phone, Calvin mentioned that someone would be going to pick her up from the airport. Cecilia hadn't expected that he would go himself.
“My health isn't at its best, but I'm far from incapacitated. I can still pick someone up from the airport. Come on. Let's get in the car.” Calvin placed her suitcase in the car.
Only then did Cecilia notice Yannick standing beside the car. The man was dressed in a suit made in Iugrea. His physique was that of a perfect inverted triangle, with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, exuding an exceptional charm.

The readers' comments on the novel: When Her Death Couldn't Break Him
Thank you 😊 for the work...
Save us the distress from waiting or we are opting for others...
Hi, good morning Could you please send more chapters? To much books reading and I always forgot the story when it comes. All characters have the same name ( Cecilia, Nathaniel, Madaline, Fabian… )and lots of the names are similar in the same story, so I got confused when I don’t have all story already written. If at least you can send 10 chapters a day…. This story is as good as Mission to Remarry I can’t wait for finish it. But let’s have a great finish and a final chapter with one year of deepest love development. Thank you! Please,please, please!!!!...
What's going on? Why so few chapters?...
This chapter is completely useless!...
Why all chapters are not until the end? The new ones are never the continuation of the previous one. Also, Could you please do not use the "swnovel.net" as a water mark on the paragraphs? I use a listening device and those paragraphs are not readable....
More chapters, please 🙏...
What's going on? Is not Cassandra married? What is she doing in her mother's House?...
Waiting for more chapters...
Thank you for the update and anticipate more. Love Elliot in this novel the most <3...
