Chapter 900
Chapter 900 Music Score
Cecília had no idea that Nathaniel was still feeling jealous. She only said, “You should focus on treating your amnesia. Don’t just suddenly act out again.”
She truly couldn’t take it. After all, Nathaniel used to be so unbearable.
Nathaniel responded with a simple “Mm.”
In a few days, it would be Labor Day. The thought of returning to Rainsworth Manor made Cecilia feel a bit of a headache.
“Let’s sleep. I’m so tired.”
Nathaniel, however, wasn’t sleepy. He held Cecilia close, lowering his head to kiss her forehead with his thin lips.
“You sleep. I’m not tired.” His voice was raspy and deep.
Cecilia’s forehead and face were peppered with his kisses. She opened her eyes and was met with his handsome face, so close. “Don’t do this,” she muttered.
She tried to turn away, using her hand to block Nathaniel.
Yet, Nathaniel grabbed her wrist, his voice lowering even more, “Be good, listen to me.”
Cecilia wasn’t sure what had gotten into her, but late at night, she couldn’t resist the temptation.
The next day, when she woke up, it was already eleven in the morning. Nathaniel had long gone to work.
Now that her pregnancy was stable, Cecilia figured that occasionally doing this wasn’t a big problem, though she still felt a little unaccustomed to it.
She got up and took a shower. After washing up, she finally left the room.
Outside, Jessica had already woken up. Seeing Cecilia finally come out of the room, Jessica was unhappy but didn’t dare to say anything.
“Cecilia, do you need my help?”
Seeing Jessica still using crutches, Cecilia thought she should be more worried about Jessica causing her trouble rather than helping.
“No need.”
“Okay. Be careful.”
Jessica said no more. She grabbed some fruit from the table and began to eat.
As Cecilia walked downstairs, she
saw Jessica flipping through her music scores.
“Where did you get that?” Cecilia immediately reached out and snatched the score from her hands.
Many of the compositions hadn’t been released yet.
Jessica didn’t seem bothered. “I saw in the news that you’re a famous composer, so I went to your matc room to look at the scores. You’re not angry over something so small, are you?”
Cecilia frowned. She had always trusted the people in her home, so she never had the habit of locking the music room.
“Don’t touch my personal things again,” she said coldly.
Reluctantly, Jessica nodded. “Fine, I get it.”.
Cecilia didn’t say anything more and returned the scores to the music room, locking the door this time.
What she didn’t know was that Jessica had done more than just look at her compositions in private.
Feeling a bit bored at home, Cecilia decided to take a walk outside.
Jessica noticed Cecilia about to leave and immediately grabbed her crutches to stand up. “Cecilia, are you going to work? I’ll come with you.”
As Labor Day was tomorrow, Cecilia planned to return to work after the holiday.
“No, I’m just going for a stroll.”
Jessica didn’t believe her and insisted on following, afraid that Cecilia was up to something good and deliberately not telling her.
“Cecilia, let me walk with you. Walking alone must be so boring.”
“Whatever.”
Cecilia knew Jessica was overthinking things again, but she didn’t bother to argue.
The two of them left Daltonia Villa together.
Cecilia never imagined that this simple walk outside would lead them into danger.
Since Sven was responsible for Elliot’s safety and Cecilia was usually protected by Nathaniel’s bodyguards, she didn’t pay much attention to security when she was just strolling near home.
They strolled along with Jessica limping persistently.
“Cecilia, are you sure you don’t want to take the car?”
“It’s just a walk. Why would I need a car?” Cecilia asked.
Jessica fell silent.
Neither of them noticed the black MPV driving toward them in the distance.
