When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 238 It Has Always Been Me You Love

At that moment, Nathaniel threw all caution to the wind.

Cecilia’s eyes widened in shock. “You’re such a b*stard!”

Nathaniel chuckled. “If so, why were you once head over heels in love with me?”

Scenting alcohol on him, Cecilia was certain that he was drunk and was making a spectacle of himself there, spouting nonsense.

“I don’t want to talk with a drunkard. Let go of me.”

“No way!” Nathaniel hugged her tightly. Leaning in, he whispered in her ear, “If I let you go, are you going to elope with Calvin? Hmm?”

Cecilia tugged at his hands.

Nonetheless, Nathaniel refused to drop his hold on her.

He enunciated, “Why did you betray me? weren’t you the one who promised to love me forever? Why didn’t you keep your promise? Do you know how I felt the first time I saw that kid? I d mn well thought that he was my son! Yet, he told me that his father was Calvin! Our child hadn’t been gone for long, yes? But you were already carrying his child? How could you be so heartless?”

Having had a few too many to drink, he poured out all his frustrations.

At his questioning, Cecilia pressed her lips tightly together, offering no response.

“Who exactly is the b*stard?” Nathaniel pressed.

He grasped her chin and forced her to look at him.

As Cecilia inhaled the reek of alcohol on him, her stomach churned, making her feel particularly nauseous.

“You’d better let go of me now, Nathaniel.” She struggled to keep herself from throwing up.

“What if I don’t?” Nathaniel was genuinely drunk, completely oblivious to her discomfort.

In the very next moment, a retching sound rang out. Nathaniel’s face instantly went as black as thunder.

At that precise moment, Cecilia immediately got off him and rushed to the bathroom.

This feeling is all too familiar. I must be pregnant.

Bleurgh!

She forgot to close the bathroom door, and Nathaniel walked in.

He had somewhat sobered up. With his brows furrowed, he removed his soiled shirt and tossed it aside before walking over to her.

“Do I disgust you that much?”Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

Not in the mood to converse with him, Cecilia geared up to leave.

However, Nathaniel grabbed her once again. Then, he lifted her with a hand around her waist.

Cecilia’s body went weightless, and her head spun. Terrified, she hastily cried out, “Put me down, Nathaniel!”

She wanted to clutch at his shirt, but in the position they were in, she simply couldn’t reach him.

Nathaniel carried her upstairs with one hand. Entering the bedroom, he tossed her onto the bed. and threw himself onto her.

Cecilia had never realized that he was exceedingly heavy, so much so that he robbed her of breath.

At that moment, she had no desire to engage in anything further with him. Opening her mouth, she sank her teeth into his shoulder.

The pain stilled Nathaniel. He fixed his unfathomable eyes on Cecilia, his fingers grasping her chin.

Following a slight exertion of force, Cecilia’s brows furrowed deeply from the sharp pain.

Nathaniel hugged her to him tightly, reeking of alcohol. His hand traced the scar on her back. “It’s always been me you love, right?”

In the past, Cecilia might have answered in the affirmation.

But right then, she wasn’t so sure anymore because he was nothing like the gentle brother she remembered from her childhood. He was too cold, detached, and inapproachable.

Receiving no response from her, Nathaniel found himself unable to fall asleep, his head throbbing painfully.

Nevertheless, it was uncertain if it was due to the excessive amount of alcohol he consumed or some other reason.

Because of his drunken stupor, he missed Mason’s calls and remained oblivious to the fact that over seven billion had vanished from his personal account.

Jonathan hadn’t anticipated that it would be even easier to hack into Nathaniel’s account that night compared to the last time. Despite the long string of figures displayed on the computer, he wasn’t all that shocked.

Instead, he slowly funneled the money into Cecilia’s companies abroad for investment in batches. under various pretexts.
