Chapter 850 Taking Care Of Him
“Do you want me to help you?” Cecilia asked.
This guy was so arrogant. Even though he clearly needed help, he beat around the bush, refusing to utter the word ‘please‘
Nathaniel pressed his thin lips together tightly, taking a long while before he could manage to utter a single word, “Hmm.”
“Is this how you ask for help? Show some courtesy, will you? Repeat your request, what exactly do you want me to do?” It was a rare opportunity for Cecilia to give him a hard time. If she let him off the hook so easily, wouldn’t she be letting down the past, wounded version of herself?
At that moment, Nathaniel really wanted to dock Mason’s salary and leave himself in Cecilia’s care.
He had a slight obsession with cleanliness. If he didn’t wash up, and especially if he had to sleep in an unfamiliar place at night, he simply couldn’t fall asleep.
Moreover, even if he didn’t freshen up, he would still need to use the washroom.
Cecilia was simply taking advantage of the situation.
“Could you show me to the washroom, please?” Nathaniel regretted his words as soon as they left his lips.
He had never tolerated threats from anyone. In the past, Cecilia challenging him would have been a serious offense.
But had he really just blurted that out moments ago?
Time and again, Cecilia crossed his boundaries.Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
While he was feeling down, Cecilia approached him. “Before I help you, you owe me an apology.”
Nathaniel looked up in confusion. “An apology?”
“You falsely accused me of being with Nicholas, don’t you think you owe me an apology? I fainted in the graveyard, and he was the one who saved me,” Cecilia paused, “And you, as my husband, didn’t even ask me why I didn’t come home that night, but immediately branded me as an adulteress. You even tried to force me to give up the custody of our two children and divorce you.”
Upon hearing her words, Nathaniel couldn’t help but respond with a question of his own. “So, how would you account for hitting me?”
Before he could finish speaking, he continued, “Since you’ve acknowledged me as your husband, shouldn’t you explain why you didn’t come home that night? Or should I be left guessing?”
Cecilia choked up.
“I apologize for hitting you, I’m sorry”
She knew that hitting someone was wrong, but she was simply too livid at that moment.
When Nathaniel heard her apology, he responded “I
After uttering those words, he struggled to squeeze out a few more.
“Sorry, the flowers I bought last time were meant as an apology.”
He was never one to be unreasonable or to cause trouble without cause. If he made a mistake, he indeed should apologize.
Cecilia really hadn’t expected that the current Nathaniel would actually apologize. Could it have been that her past misunderstandings of him were too deep?
Without giving it much thought, she said, “Let’s go, we should freshen up.”
“Okay.”
Nathaniel stood up slowly, hesitating for a moment before reaching out for her.
The two arrived at the washroom, with Cecilia guiding Nathaniel’s hand, adeptly introducing him to all the toiletries inside, as well as the location of the toilet and such.
When her hand brushed against the back of Nathaniel’s hand, he felt an inexplicable sensation, as if a million ants had just crawled over it.
His Adam’s apple bobbed slightly. “Cecilia.”
“What?” Cecilia applied toothpaste to the toothbrush and handed it to him. “It’s a bit cramped here, some items are hard to place. You go ahead and freshen up, I’ll stay nearby. If you need any help, just let me know.”
“I’ve been blind for about half a year now, haven’t I?” Nathaniel suddenly asked.
Cecilia paused for a moment, calculating in her head. It had probably been around four or five months.
“Yeah, more or less.”
She was now seventeen weeks pregnant, her belly already showing a slight bulge.
“So, you’ve been taking care of me like this even before I lost my memory?”
