Chapter 730 Drugged Me
Nathaniel was somewhat of a clean freak. It didn’t matter if it was Cecilia or even Stella. Nobody was allowed to touch him.
Yet, at that moment, as Cecilia leaned into his embrace, he found himself not resisting at all.
“Things have really changed.”
Cecilia felt inexplicably puzzled. “What has changed?”
Nathaniel didn’t respond, quickly letting go of her.
He still couldn’t believe that years later, he had actually fallen in love with Cecilia, and they even had a child together.
“How old is that child now?” he suddenly asked again.
“He’s just over four years old,” Cecilia responded, even though she found his demeanor at that moment quite odd.
The child being just over four meant that she was conceived around the time they were going through their divorce.
“Did you drug me?” Nathaniel could only surmise this as the reason.
“Do you remember now?”
Cecilia initially thought he was referring to the time she had drugged him in order to conceive their current child.
Nathaniel’s eyes narrowed slightly, a cold intensity radiating from them. “Just as I thought.”
He was left puzzled as to why, in his memory, he was certain he wanted to divorce Cecilia, but in the end, it never happened.
Right then, he thought it was because she resorted to such underhanded tactics.
“You’ve truly surprised me with your candid response to such a matter,” Nathaniel sarcastically remarked.
Cecilia had no idea he had misunderstood, so she explained, “I told you before that I had no other choice. Eli has leukemia and needs cord blood from a sibling.”
Upon hearing those words, Nathaniel at first did not understand. Gradually, he discerned the crux of the matter from her words.
He asked again, “What’s the story with your first pregnancy?”
A frown creased Cecilia’s brow. Clearly, she hadn’t expected that Nathaniel would forget that matter, too.
Years had passed, yet the thought of the past still made her clench her fists. She pressed into her palm and said, “What’s the point of asking all these questions now? You’d be better off going to the hospital for a check–up. Once you’re treated, you’ll naturally remember everything.”
Cecilia lost her appetite and could no longer eat. She then took his hand and said, “Let’s go. 1
have Mason call and inform Zachary.”
Nathaniel rose to his feet, his towering figure completely overshadowing Cecilia.

She was leaving, the deep voice of Nathaniel resonated from behind, clearly reaching the ears of Cecilia.
“Regardless of whether your words are true or false, for the sake of our children, just tell me directly what you want in the future.”
Cecilia paused, turning back to look at him.
She had always thought that Nathaniel would never want to have happened, she was certain he would insist on her getting rid of it.
ildren with her. If it ever
At that moment, however, Nathaniel’s memories had returned to the past, yet he spoke in such a manner.
“Why aren’t we leaving?” Nathaniel’s voice turned icy as if he wasn’t accustomed to the words he had just spoken.
“Oh… There’s a chair ahead. Let me move it before we proceed.”
Casually shifting her chair, Cecilia masked her peculiar inner emotions, then left with Nathaniel in tow.
Mason had already had his breakfast and was waiting in the car. “I’ve already reached out to Mr. Sinclair. Everything has been arranged on his end.”
One had to concede Mason’s work competency. Even before Cecilia could mention it, he had already taken it into consideration.
“All right. Thank you.
The moment he got into the car, Mason couldn’t quite believe it. Nathaniel, who had lost several years‘ worth of memories, was still taking orders from Cecilia.
This could very well prove one thing. Nathaniel didn’t just fall for Cecilia in recent years.
After all, when it came to being stubborn, Nathaniel was truly unmatched.
Over at Tudela Hospital, Zachary was waiting outside the designated entrance from early on.
He didn’t yet know the specifics of what had happened, only that Nathaniel had been injured and needed to be hospitalized for examination.
