When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him Novel
Chapter 500

Chapter 500 What If I Am Jealous.

Upon hearing the sound of footsteps, Nathaniel cast his gaze toward the direction of the door.

Cecilia didn’t call out to him. Instead, she walked up to him and bluntly asked. “Did you hurt Calvin?”

Nathaniel took a deep breath.

“Don’t lie,” Cecilia immediately added.

A wave of unease washed over Nathaniel as he responded in a stifled voice, “Hmm.”

“Hmm? Did you really beat him up?” Cecilia couldn’t believe it.

He, a man who was blind, had managed to injure Calvin severely.

At a loss for words, she punched Nathaniel’s shoulder.

A frown creased Nathaniel’s forehead, his whole demeanor reeking of astonishment. He had never anticipated that Cecilia would hit him over the matter of Calvin,

Though it wasn’t a heavy punch, he didn’t feel good about it.

Isn’t he just a man? So what if he got beaten up? He’s lucky I didn’t bury him right then and there.

Though Nathaniel thought so in his heart, he dared not voice it out.

“It’s quite normal for men to have disagreements, especially when we are love rivals. A little fight doesn’t really matter.”

-What do you mean, just a fight? Sven said that Calvin is still not entirely out of danger.” Agitated, Cecilia threw another heavy punch at him.

Nathaniel didn’t dodge. For reasons unknown, seeing Cecilia defend another man so fervently made him feel an overwhelming urge to rush to Calvin’s side and tear him apart.

“It won’t happen again,” he said.

Cecilia remained frustrated. Given how shameless he was, she realized that hitting him was utterly useless.

The thought of him landing Calvin in the hospital filled her with anger. She couldn’t just let him. off the hook. With that, she fiercely grabbed onto his arm.

Nathaniel’s expression finally changed. “It hurts, Ceci.”

This method of pinching really did hurt a bit.

“I barely pinched you, and you felt pain. What about Calvin?”

“He helped me so much. If it wasn’t for him, I would have died overseas. But what about you?”

“What did you do?”

Cecilia was still not appeased. She continue to forcefully pinch him,

Nathaniel didn’t fight back. He expressed a sense of injustice he had never felt before. “But what if I’m jealous?”

Cecilia was taken aback for a moment.

“There’s absolutely nothing going on between me and Calvin.”

“Nothing?” Nathaniel scoffed. “That child…”

Just as Cecilia was about to reveal to him that the child was not Calvin’s, a phone call unfortunately came in at that moment.

Cecilia picked up her phone and saw that it was a call from Elliot. Only then did she remember that Elliot was still at home alone.

Before she had the chance to continue chastising Nathaniel, she took the phone call. “Elliot?”

“Mommy, where are you? The note you left for me said you’d be back in two hours, didn’t it? Why aren’t you back yet? Did you secretly ditch me and go enjoy some good food on your own?”

“Hmph.”

Elliot feigned anger, but in reality, he was scared out of his wits at that moment.

He thought his se mbag daddy had complained to his mother about his secret plans to cause trouble for Elena, and that was why his mother had abandoned him.

“Sorry, sweetheart, Mommy will be back soon. I’ve also bought you lots of yummy treats,” Cecilia hurriedly said.

“All right then, please hurry back.”

Elliot quietly let out a sigh of relief.

After hanging up the phone, Cecilia didn’t feel like explaining things to Nathaniel anymore.

Any semblance of affection she had managed to build up for him was now completely gone.

“Let’s head back”

Without a word of protest, Nathaniel immediately rose from his bed. “All right.”

On the way back, there was an unusual silence in the car.

Sven felt a chilling gaze constantly watching him from behind.

Cecilia didn’t speak, causing an unusual unease in both of the men, especially in Nathaniel.

He felt that Cecilia was still angry from the way she had hit and pinched him earlier.

Once they were back at Daltonia Villa, Nathaniel profoundly understood just how important Calvin was to Cecilia.
