When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him Novel

Chapter 604 Jonathan Is Dangerous.

Before heading to the office that morning, Nathaniel was stopped by Elliot, who told him that Jonathan wanted to see him and asked him to come to the kindergarten in the afternoon.

He thought it was about time to meet Jonathan, so he agreed.

In the afternoon, he had the driver take him home.

When he reached home, Cecilia and Elliot were ready and were waiting for him.

Elliot called out, “Daddy.”

Nathaniel hummed in response.

Cecilia stepped forward, saying, “Let’s go.”

She had already called Vivian and informed her that the Sinclair family’s driver didn’t need to pick up Jonathan at kindergarten today.

The family of three settled into the car, yet an unusual silence filled the space.

Elliot sat between Cecilia and Nathaniel, thinking he should do something to ease the tension. “Mommy, why aren’t you and Daddy holding hands? The other kids‘ parents always hold hands,” he said, looking out the window at the sidewalk, where parents and their children were walking. Cecilia saw it too. She glanced at Nathaniel’s stern, cold face, quickly averting her gaze.

The next moment, Nathaniel held out his hand.

Elliot intervened, “Mommy, hold hands with Daddy.”

Cecilia gazed at Nathaniel’s large hand and gently placed her palm in it. In the next moment, he closed his grip around her hand.

As they arrived at the kindergarten, Nathaniel held Cecilia’s left hand, while–Elliot grasped her right. Together, the three of them stood out prominently amidst the crowd.

Numerous eyes turned their way, including Miranda’s. Amidst the crowd of mothers, she overheard someone mention a strikingly handsome man. Curious, she looked over and was taken. aback to see that the couple was Cecilia and Nathaniel.

“What are they doing here?” she said.

“Ms. Miranda, do you know them?” a wealthy lady asked.

Upon hearing this, Miranda couldn’t help but scoff. “Of course, I know her. That woman with the scar on her face is Cecilia, my husband’s cousin’s wife.”

“Your husband’s cousin? Is he Nathaniel?” a woman exclaimed in surprise.

“No wonder he’s so handsome. That boy must be their son. He’s so adorable! He’s like an actor who stepped right out of a TV show.”

Hearing the compliments around her, Miranda scoffed. “What’s the point of being handsome if he’s blind? Haven’t you heard?”

“Huh? He’s blind?”

“What a pity.”

“Nathaniel did my husband dirty back then. Serves him right.”

“What are they doing here? Is their son studying here too?”

The mothers chatted and gossiped. Miranda had inquired about their other child and learned that his name was Jonathan, who was apparently attending this very school.

“Yes, they have another son named Jonathan who is in the same class as our child.”

“That kid who won the mathematical olympiad?” one of the moms exclaimed in surprise.

Miranda had no idea that Jonathan was the champion of the mathematical olympiad. She was surprised but concealed it, lowering her voice. “So what if he’s good at math? Their son is at criminal! My son, Felix, was nearly killed by their son a few days ago. You all need to be careful.”

Most of the people picking up the children were mothers. Upon hearing Miranda’s remark that Jonathan was dangerous, their expressions shifted to uneasy glances toward Cecilia and the others.

Cecilia was focused on waiting for Jonathan, oblivious to the odd looks she was receiving.

School was finally over. Jonathan knew his mom was coming to pick him up that day, so he had already packed his bag and was ready to leave.

Felix, however, stopped him. “Hey, Jon, are you Elliot’s older brother?”

Jonathan rolled his eyes at Felix. “You’re only realizing this now?”
