When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 2097

Life sure is unpredictable.

Through the dim light, Magnus looked at Denise and suddenly felt that the life he was living now didn't seem so bad after all.

Seconds later, he closed his eyes and drifted off to sleep.

On Christmas Day, joy permeated everything.

Cecilia was out in the courtyard building a snowman with the four kids, while Nathaniel watched them from nearby.

The family looked exceptionally harmonious together.

Just then, a car pulled up outside.

In the discreet yet luxurious vehicle, Nicholas watched the scene from afar, and a sense of bitterness rose in his heart.

His Adam's apple bobbed slightly, and he instructed the driver to stop the car.

When Nicholas got out of the car, Cecilia noticed him.

In just a month or two, he seemed to have lost a lot of weight; the fullness in his face was gone.

Although he and Nathaniel were twins and used to look identical, now, one could tell them apart at a glance.

Nicholas' gaze also fell on her. When their eyes met, Cecilia immediately looked away, continuing to play with the four children.

Her reaction did not escape Nicholas' eyes.

Saying nothing, he walked straight toward them.

At the same time, Wren stepped out of the house. Upon spotting Nicholas, he couldn't help but ask, "Nicholas, why did you only come home now?"

"I've been very busy recently, so I could only come home now," Nicholas replied.

"What were you so busy with that you forgot about Christmas Eve? You really need to visit us more often in the future," Wren advised earnestly.

Nicholas listened but did not nod in agreement as he usually would.
