When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 1273

Chapter 1273 Moving In
Without a second thought, Cecilia nodded repeatedly. “Yes. I'm not lying to you. I promise I will be with your daddy.”

Nathaniel couldn't help but feel surprised.

Elliot was overjoyed, exclaiming, “Yes! This is fantastic! I'll have both my parents from now on.”

Upon seeing his happiness, Cecilia was consumed by guilt.

She had always been consumed by her own thoughts, neglecting to consider her two children. Despite their intelligence, they were still just kids who naturally longed for a complete family.

After his bout of joy, Elliot felt a pang of hunger. He asked Cecilia to buy his favorite ravioli from a nearby place.

Without giving it much thought, Cecilia simply stepped out.

After leaving, she made sure to inform Lucille and the others that the child was all right, suggesting they return home to rest first.

Lucille and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief.

“It's a relief that Eli is all right. We knew he would be all right.”

“Yes.”

Inside the ward, Nathaniel stayed vigilantly by Elliot's side.

“Eli, tell me something. What did you mean when you said you want your mommy and me to be together?” Nathaniel asked.

He was thrilled that Cecilia was willing to start anew with him, yet he didn't want it to be solely because of the children.

Elliot was feeling a bit better then, and he said to Nathaniel, “I'm not doing it for you, sc*mbag daddy.”

“If not for me, then for whom?” Nathaniel asked solemnly.

“Of course, it's for Mommy. Mommy has already had a hard time raising Jon and me on her own. She's going to have little siblings for us soon. Surely, she shouldn't have to take care of them all by herself, right? Elliot's large eyes were fixed intently on Nathaniel. “Sc*mbag daddy, I'm helping you now, but it's all for Mommy's sake. You better treat Mommy right, or I won't let you off the hook when I grow up.”

Upon hearing those words, Nathaniel didn't become angry. Instead, he felt rather comforted.

Nathaniel then lifted his hand.

Elliot thought Nathaniel would lose his temper out of embarrassment and strike him. However, to his surprise, Nathaniel simply gave his cheek a light pinch.

“It's not that I'm unwilling, but I want to wait until you're wholeheartedly ready, not forced.”

Upon hearing these words, for a moment, Cecilia didn't know what to say.

When Nathaniel was about to leave, she immediately called out to stop him.

“Shall we move in together first, then?” she asked.

After all, she had promised Elliot. She couldn't lie to the child.

The two of them could live together, providing Elliot with both paternal and maternal love.

“All right.”

Nathaniel readily agreed.

The pair were about to say something else when a nurse approached. She informed them that Elliot had woken up and was crying, asking for them.
