When Her Death Couldn't Break Him novel Chapter 265

Chapter 265 A Fierce Confrontation 

Both Nathaniel and Calvin were battered and bruised, neither faring better than the other. However, Calvin, having been injured before, was no match for Nathaniel. Just as Nathaniel was about to throw another punch, Cecilia stepped in front of Calvin.. 

“Have you had enough?” she asked Nathaniel, her gaze icy and detached. 

Nathaniel froze, the pain at the corner of his mouth lingering. He wiped away the fresh blood. seeping from his lip, staring deeply at Cecilia, but said nothing. 

“Leave now, or I’ll call the police!” Cecilia warned. 

Nathaniel couldn’t quite articulate the feeling settling in his heart. In the past, Cecilia had always stood by his side, no matter who was involved. Now, she had chosen someone else. 

Nathaniel finally averted his gaze, turning to walk out. After he left, Cecilia immediately turned to Calvin. “Are you okay?” 

The moment her hand brushed against his arm, Calvin winced and drew in a sharp breath. “I’m fine,” he replied. 

But Cecilia noticed his sleeve was stained with blood, tinting her fingertips red. “You’re bleeding from your arm. 

Calvin removed his coat, revealing a muscular arm with a ghastly knife wound that had reopened during the fight, fresh blood streaming down. He quickly covered it with his shirt. “It’s an old wound. Did it scare you?” 

Calvin hadn’t expected Nathaniel to still have such strength. 

At that moment, the men Calvin had brought with him entered, each one battered and bruised. Seeing Calvin injured, one of them rushed over to dress his wound. 

“Sir, should we go to the hospital?” 

“No need. You all go ahead,” Calvin replied. 

After everyone left, Calvin turned to Cecilia. “Did Nathaniel harm you 

Cecilia shook her head. “No, your timing was perfect. Thank you.” 

Calvin frowned slightly. “I knew he wouldn’t let it go.” 

in any way?” 

Worry was etched in Cecilia’s eyes. “I didn’t expect him to follow me this far.” 

“Shall I take you away tomorrow?” Calvin asked tentatively. 

Cecilia declined. “No need. Just take good care of Martha and the kids for me. I can handle this myself.”

Calvin had expected her to refuse, but he couldn’t help the wistful smile that crossed his face. “Can you tell me why you keep rejecting my help? Aren’t we friends?” 

After a brief silence, Cecilia finally answered, “I’m afraid I won’t be able to repay you.” 

That single sentence said it all. Deep down, Calvin knew she could never be with him. 

“I understand now,” he said. “But if you ever need me, just call.” 

With a sense of defeat, Calvin left. 

Back in the car, Calvin took the diamond ring from his pocket and tossed it out the window. On the way to the airport, he received a call from his friend, Yannick.
