Chapter 180 Where Are You Hiding Now

When Cecilia awoke, she was drenched in sweat and her body was shaking uncontrollably.

In the faint glow emanating from the adjacent care room, Nathaniel hurriedly approached. Seeing that she was

okay, he breathed a sigh of relief.

“What's wrong?”

Tears welled up in Cecilia's eyes. “I dreamt that | was dead.”

That sensation felt incredibly real.

The mere mention of death inexplicably struck a hidden chord within Nathaniel. He stepped forward, pulling

Cecilia into his embrace. Gently patting her back, he tried his best to soften hist

voice.

“You're not dead. I'm here. Don’t be scared.”

Cecilia took her tto return to reality from her nightmare.

Before he could reply, Cecilia added, “I don’t understand...

Nathaniel felt a tightness in his throat, unable to utter a single word.

Can't a person change?

He didn’t even know what was happening to him.

He didn’t feel any particular affection toward Cecilia. He just thought that getting to know someone new would

be a hassle.

He was simply fearful of her death.

After a long pause, Nathaniel asked, “If we were to divorce, would you marry Calvin?”

Cecilia shook her head.

“I don’t know.”

However, in her heart, she yearned for a life of freedom, not wanting to be confined by her role. as the daughter-

in-law of the Rainsworth family.

She now had a job she was passionate about and children to care for. She was no longer the woman who had

nothing but Nathaniel in her heart, the woman who was solely focused on love.

“Would you like it if | let you guys go now?”

A glimmer of hope flashed in Cecilia's eyes. “I'd appreciate it if you would let us go.”

“You really have quite the imagination!”

That single sentence shattered all of Cecilia's hopes, making her realize that Nathaniel had been playing her all

along.

“What do you takefor?”

“Ill take you for what you takefor!”
