NovelEnglishChapter 237 To Leave In Five Days.
Cecilia and Calvin went to a nearby restaurant for dinner on foot.
Cecilia wasn’t afraid that the bodyguard tailing her would report the matter to Nathaniel. Her relationship with
Calvin was platonic, so she had nothing to fear.
Meanwhile, Nathaniel had already received the photos sent by the bodyguard he arranged to tail Cecili
He clutched his phone, the blazing fury in his eyes undisguised.
No wonder she wanted to go out. It turns out that she has gone on a date.
A deep sense of moroseness swamped him, yet he couldn't quite put his finger on the reason.
At just that moment, a call cthrough. It was from Elena.
Tears of joy streamed down her face as she said, “Nathaniel, there's an update from Lushtopia. They said he
might wake up.”
In an instant, Nathaniel grip on his phone tightened.
“Got it.” Right after saying that, he ended the call.
At the restaurant, Cecilia gazed at the array of exquisite dishes before her.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtUnfortunately, she had no appetite, her stomach churning.
She wasn't sure if it was because of Nathaniel or the possibility that she might be pregnant.
It wouldn't be wise for her to have it verified at the local hospital or purchase a pregnancy test herself.
Ultimately, it was safer to wait until she was abroad.
“I investigated Nicholas Rainsworth. He's Nathaniel’s twin brother, but there's not much information on him,”
Calvin started.
“Is there nothing else on him? For instance, his current whereabouts?” Cecilia asked.
Calvin shook his head. “We definitely won't be able to find anything anytsoon.”
After all, the Rainsworth family’s measures in keeping Nicholas’ information confidential were even more
stringent than that of Cecilia's identity abroad.
Subsequently, he asked, “Why did you haveinvestigate him?”
Cecilia's grip on her fork tightened. “I feel like | might have mistaken something.”
Calvin didn’t understand her meaning.
However, she then added, “It’s no big deal. We're leaving anyway, so just leave it at that.”
In no time, Cecilia changed the subject. She told him that she had seen Elliot recently and even went on to gush
about how incredibly intelligent Eli was and so on.
Despite her chatter and laughter, Calvin felt that she wasn’t happy at all.
Getting back to the business, Cecilia had already decided on the day of departure. “I plan to leave with Eli in five
days.”
“Why five days?”
“I have an agreement with Nathaniel that after spending a month with him, he would let us go,” Cecilia
explained briefly. “There are eleven days left now, but | feel that even if a full month passes, he won't letand
Eli go easily.”
“So, you're saying that you're deceiving him into thinking that you'll only be leaving in cleven. days, but we'll
depart early?” Calvin instantly grasped her meaning.
“Yes.”
Cecilia then added, “Also, it’s the start of Stella’s new television series in five days. Since we sabotaged it, she'll
certainly seek Nathaniel out. At that time, he won't have any free tto look for us.”
The reason she believed that Nathaniel would seek Stella out was that she not only wanted to expose the latter's
true colors but also reveal a certain truth to him-the fact of whether Stella ever saved Elena.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHer motive wasn’t to make Nathaniel guilty or have Elena owe her a favor. Instead, she simply. didn’t want
someone abhorrent to steal her merit.
At the end of the day, Nathaniel’s kindness toward Stella was undoubtedly not just out of gratitude when he was
the kind of person who even forgot that she took a knife for him.
Calvin was previously worried about whether Cecilia was serious about leaving. But right then, he was certain
that she indeed meant it.
“Okay.”
After everything had been agreed upon, Calvin drove Cecilia home.
Upon arriving back at Daltonia Villa, Cecilia pushed open the door and stepped in.
Nathaniel had long since returned. He was seated on the couch with his shirt unbuttoned, holding a glass of
whiskey in hand.
His eyes, which were faintly tinged red, fell on Cecilia.
“You've finally deigned to cback?”
something as trivial as that, | have nothing to say.”
She was just about to ascend the stairs when a strong force yanked her into an embrace.

Nathaniel grasped her wrist tightly, his voice lowered. “Do you believe I'd take his life?”
