Chapter 376 You Are Sleeping On The Couch

“Get out!” demanded Cecilia. Not caring how he had entered, she immediately ordered him to leave.

“The receptionist mentioned that all the rooms here are fully booked. If I were to leave now, would have nowhere to stay,” Nathaniel said in a somewhat pitiful manner.

“How could it be fully booked now? It’s not even peak season.”

As Cecilia spoke, she picked up her phone and called the front desk to inquire. As expected, the place was fully booked.

She was somewhat bewildered.

Nathaniel had somehow found himself in front of her before she knew it. “Perhaps it’s fully booked because New Year is just around the corner,” he said.

“Then you should stay at a different hotel,” suggested Cecilia.

She refused to believe that all the other hotels were also fully booked.

“I won’t.”

Nathaniel refused outright, leaning toward Cecilia as he continued, “It took me a great deal of effort to replace this place. Are you sure you want to ask a blind man to go out and replace another hotel in the middle of the night?”

If it were someone else, Cecilia might have been uneasy. But Nathaniel had an abundance of bodyguards and subordinates, so there was no cause for concern.

She lifted her hand, clutched the corner of his clothing, and tried to lead him. away. “I’ll take to a different hotel.”

Nathaniel didn’t expect that his attempts to gain sympathy would be futile.

He simply stood still and said, “I don’t want to stay anywhere else, Ceci.”

Cecilia had tried strenuously to pull him away, but she simply couldn’t move him.

Nathaniel directly took hold of her hand, his voice dropping low as he said, “Ceci, think this through. This is Tudela. What do you think people who know me would think if they saw me here, blind?”

Upon hearing these words, Cecilia finally stopped trying to drag him away.

“Why did you come here, then?”

“I wasn’t at ease leaving you alone.”

The previous times when Nathaniel had to stay alone in a hotel, keeping watch over Cecilia, he

felt incredibly lonely.

Therefore, this time, he was determined to stay with Cecilia no matter what she said.

Cecilia pulled away from his grasp. “You’re sleeping on the couch tonight.”

“All right.”

Only then did Cecilia go to freshen up.

She was too tired that day.

After taking a bath, she lay down on the bed.

She had barely settled down when she heard Nathaniel’s deep voice, “Ceci, I’m not familiar with this place. Could you tell me where the bathroom is? And where I can replace the toiletries?”

Cecilia almost forgot that he couldn’t see. She had to get up again and guide him to the bathroom.

She took his hand, guiding him to touch various objects, explaining what each one was.

Nathaniel’s memory was impeccable, so he could remember anything she told him.

At times, Cecilia would wonder how someone like him could have lost his memory.

Looking at his now obedient and gentle demeanor, it truly seemed as if he had become a different person.

When Cecilia was lost in thought, she didn’t notice that Nathaniel had gently taken hold of her. It seemed as if the temperature in the room had risen.

Nathaniel leaned against her back, as if he was embracing her entirely from behind, his Adam’s apple subtly moving.

Feeling his breath on her ear, Cecilia snapped back to reality, immediately pulling away from hist grasp. “All right; you should go take a shower now,” she said.

After she had spoken, she left as if she were escaping from him.

Returning to bed, Cecilia’s face felt unusually hot. She quickly shut her eyes with the sound of water trickling in the bathroom echoing in her ears.

It wasn’t long before she unknowingly drifted into dreamland.

In her dream, she felt as though someone was holding her tightly. She was too exhausted to open. her eyes, no matter how much she tried.

The first light of dawn fell upon her face, gently rousing Cecilia from her sleep. She opened her eyes slowly, only to replace herself alone on the bed.

with his work.

Breakfast was neatly arranged on the table.

Curious to see what Nathaniel had been working on these past few days, Cecilia left the breakfast untouched.

As she walked behind Nathaniel and took a glance, the business proposal that was originally on his computer had been replaced with a charity donation proposal.
