Chapter 23 Do Not MakeAngry

She was terrified, holding her abdomen protectively.

She didn’t know how much thad passed before everything finally stopped.

“Cecilia, don’t makeangry.” Nathaniel’s breathing was heavy.

Cecilia could only vaguely hear his words.

Her eyes were hollow. “Didn’t you say that you would never touch me? So, what is this now?”

She buried her face in the pillow. Nathaniel didn’t notice how pale her face had become.

Cecilia continued, “Does your little lover know what you've done? If she found out, | bet she'd be furious.”

Once, Cecilia thought that Nathaniel was both heartless and passionate.

Now, she only found him to be insufferable...

When she mentioned his lover, Nathaniel knew she was referring to Stella.

“Did you ever think about that when you were with Calvin?”

His words were sharp as a blade, aiming straight for her heart.

Nathaniel never compromised for any woman, especially not for Cecilia.

Without any restraint, he sneered, “Looking at how scrawny you are, it’s hard to believe that any man would

want you.”

As he spoke, he had already dressed himself.

Cecilia's ears rang, and she could feel something flowing out from her lower body.

Before Nathaniel left, she couldn’t help but ask, “Mr. Rainsworth, if | died, would you be sad?”

Die?

Nathaniel found it laughable.

He didn’t answer but simply said, “Move back to Daltonia Villa tomorrow.”

Cecilia didn’t hear his words.

After Nathaniel left, she pulled back the blanket and saw that her legs were covered in blood.

Nathaniel had no idea that shortly after he left, the sound of an ambulance siren echoed from downstairs.

The following day, at the hospital, Cecilia was half-lying on the hospital bed, with Calvin tending to her nearby.

Had she not been sent to the hospital in tlast night, she might have lost the baby.

After this incident, Cecilia was more determined than ever to leave Nathaniel.

Ding!

Cecilia picked up her phone and saw a message from Paula who had fled abroad.

Paula: Cecilia! Since you're would be so grateful to you.

| alive, helpsmooth things over with Mr. Larke. Magnus and | Cecilia deleted the message without replying.

She knew that as long as she was alive, Paula and Magnus would continue to make demands of her.

Another message was from Nathaniel’s mother, Elena.

Elena: Cecilia, you should be well aware of how much Nathaniel despises you. The only reason he won't divorce

you is because he wants to make you suffer!! So, could you please just disappear from this world? | beg of you.

Calvin cover just in tto see the message.

His brow furrowed. “These people are absolutely shameless!”

Cecilia turned off her phone and looked up at him with a forced smile.

“But there are good people too. Thank you.”

Calvin looked at the strained smile on her face, feeling deeply uncomfortable.

How much injustice and suffering had she endured all these years? Why is she still treading so cautiously, even

around an old friend?

Calvin sat down in front of her, meeting her gaze directly. “Between friends, there's no need to keep saying

thank you.”

Hearing this, Cecilia nodded.

After a moment of hesitation, she couldn't help but speak up. “Calvin, can you doa favor?”
