When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 1095 Sleeping Together

When Jessica found out, she couldn’t help but click her tongue, “How shameless. She’s still sleeping together with Nathaniel even after their divorce.”

Cecilia overheard the murmurs outside and got up to check.

She saw Jessica and a few maids gossiping about her.

Cecilia was speechless. What could Nathaniel even do to her now?

“If you can’t stand me sleeping next to Nathaniel, why don’t you give it a try?” Cecilia called out loudly from upstairs.

Jessica’s face instantly changed at those words.

If she were to lie next to Nathaniel, she probably wouldn’t live to see the morning sun.

“I’m not like you. I haven’t married Nathaniel yet, so nothing would happen between us.” Jessica feigned innocence.

Cecilia chuckled. “And after you marry him, would you dare to lie next to him and see what happens?”

Jessica was silenced once again.

She didn’t say another word and went back to her own room, slamming the door shut.

She couldn’t wait to hear Cecilia’s screams.

During the day, Cecilia must’ve gotten lucky–Nathaniel didn’t have one of his fits. But at night? That would be a different story.

Once Jessica left, Cecilia returned to her room and lay down to rest.

She had been exhausted, constantly running between places.

The bed was big. After lying down, Cecilia didn’t get too close to Nathaniel. She was careful not to touch his wounds.

In the dark, she didn’t know how long she had slept when suddenly, the man’s arm reached over, pulling her into his embrace.

Cecilia was sound asleep and didn’t notice. She leaned against his chest, finding herself sleeping even more soundly.

The next morning, Cecilia woke up at eight.

For the first time in a while, the bodyguards and maids at the manor finally had a good night’s sleep. Nathaniel hadn’t gone into one of his rages.

When Cecilia opened her eyes, she saw Nathaniel sleeping quietly and properly. At some point, she had ended up in his arms.

Just as she was about to get up, the man beside her opened his eyes. “Don’t go.”

Nathaniel’s voice was a bit hoarse. For a moment, Cecilia thought he could see her and was fully conscious

Alas, her hope was quickly dashed when Nathaniel pulled her back into his embrace like a child.

“Take me home. When are you taking me home?” Nathaniel asked.

Cecilia couldn’t help feeling a bit sad. She patted his back gently, “Don’t worry, I’ll take you home in a few days.”

His compliance surprised the butler and maids guarding the door.

However, this worked out for the best. It also made things easier for them.

Jessica, who hadn’t heard Cecilia screaming last night, was also up early. She noticed how calm Nathaniel was, nothing like his usual wild self.

“Maybe I should be gentler?” Jessica muttered to herself.

She planned to try getting close to Nathaniel once Cecilia left for work.NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.

After breakfast and a stroll with Nathaniel, Cecilia finally left.

Once she was gone, Jessica looked at Nathaniel, who was sitting obediently in the room. She looked eager.

“Nathaniel, I can take you home too,” Jessica said cautiously as she approached, mimicking Cecilia’s tone.

Nathaniel fixed his gaze in her direction. “I want to go home.”

Jessica couldn’t help but feel smug.

Nathaniel fell for this. Great. As long as I can control Nathaniel and make him listen to me, marrying him will be fine. I can also have a stable marriage life while having other lovers.

Reality was far harsher than her fantasies.

“Then take me away now,” Nathaniel said again.

“Sure, I’ll take you home in a couple of days,” Jessica replied as she stepped forward to touch him.

The next moment, a chill flashed through the man’s eyes.

“Liar!”

The maids outside the room suddenly heard Jessica’s screams. “Nathaniel, I was wrong. Don’t hit me! Let me go! Help!”
