When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 1846 A Confession

"That's settled, then," Cecilia said, her eyes filled with warmth.

With a serious expression, Calvin nodded firmly. "Yes. It's a deal."

The plane was about to take off soon, and Calvin could no longer afford to delay. He bid them farewell.

"See you next time."

"All right. Bye." Cecilia waved him goodbye, and the weight in her heart eased considerably.

Aside from the times in their childhood when she had helped Calvin, Calvin was always the one helping her after they had grown up.

Since she had become somewhat capable, she could finally be of assistance to Calvin.

After watching Calvin's figure disappear, Nathaniel gently supported Cecilia's shoulder, saying, "Let's go back."

"All right." Cecilia nodded, and they left the airport together.

Outside, at some unknown point in time, a light rain had begun to fall.

The driver brought over two umbrellas. Carefully, Nathaniel held one over Cecilia

as they walked side by side toward the vehicle.

As she walked, Cecilia glanced at the sky before turning her gaze toward the bustling crowd.

She wasn't wearing her hearing aid then, yet she could hear everyone's voices very clearly. That sensation truly felt incredible.

Suddenly, Nathaniel came to a halt. "Ceci, there's something I need to talk to you about."

Cecilia also came to a halt, looking at him with confusion. "What?"

Nathaniel lowered his head. "I love you."

He spoke in a hushed tone, but Cecilia still heard him.

Cecilia couldn't help blushing. "Oh, you..."

There were quite a few people around, which made Cecilia a bit shy.

"Why are you suddenly saying that?"

Nathaniel chuckled lightly. "I'm not sure. I just suddenly felt like telling you."

"Sure." Cecilia nodded. "I l-like you too."

“Like? Is that it?" Nathaniel intentionally probed further.

Cecilia felt a bit embarrassed. "Well, what else can it be? I simply like you."

"Okay. That works," Nathaniel stated sincerely.

Cecilia wrapped her arm around his, and at that moment, they were just like any ordinary couple.

As they sat in the car, it didn't take long before the day turned into night.

At that time of year, nightfall was arriving earlier and earlier.

When Cecilia arrived back at the ward, she pushed open the door to find the room filled with fresh

flowers. Family and friends were all gathered inside.

"Ceci, congratulations on the successful surgery."

"Mommy!"

Her two eldest sons lunged toward Cecilia.

Elena also brought her two little grandchildren along, and the pair toddled somewhat unsteadily toward Cecilia.

Cecilia embraced them and felt as if she had the entire world in her arms.

Charlotte then handed over a bouquet of flowers, saying, "Boss, this is for you." "Thank you."

Cecilia accepted the beautiful flowers, her eyes curving into a smile.

However, that day was somewhat tough for Nathaniel, as he couldn't help but

sneeze.

He was allergic to pollen.

After giving it some thought, Cecilia immediately said to him, "Maybe you should take a step back?"

Those were flowers bought by family and friends, so she simply couldn't just discard them.

Nathaniel looked at her with a touchnoveldrama

of pity. Earlier, she said she liked

him. At that moment, she was

pushing him away for the sake of

others.

"All right, then."

Nathaniel was feeling down.

"I'll be with you tonight," Cecilia said softly.

A glimmer flashed across Nathaniel's eyes. "Remember your words."

"Of course!" Cecilia promised.

Only then did Nathaniel leave, a smile finally gracing his features. Others watched the interaction between the two and felt somewhat jealous.

Zachary even looked at Vivian and said, "Vivian, can't you learn from Cecilia?" Darren glanced toward Madeline. Before he could speak, Madeline turned to look at him.

"We're an old married couple. It's different," said Madeline.

Darren then silently withdrew his gaze.

The room was teeming with people A few men stood there, not realle

knowing what to say, so they e?

decided to step out.
