When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 2103

Cecilia and Nathaniel arrived at the restaurant on time. While waiting for Eric, Nathaniel received a call and briefly stepped out.

Eric spotted her from afar and quickly walked toward her.

When he reached the table, he looked around and couldn't help but ask, "Didn't you say Mr. Rainsworth would also be here? Where is he?"

"Oh, he just stepped out to take a call," Cecilia replied.

Eric nodded and then sat down across from Cecilia.

At that time, he still hadn't realized that his parents were currently seated in the private room next door.

Alan and Ines were happy to see that the person he was meeting was a woman who was quite attractive.

"Well, would you look at that? Eric found himself a girlfriend ages ago, but he kept it from us," Alan remarked.

Ines was puzzled. "Does this woman look a little familiar to you? It feels like I've seen her somewhere before."

Eric and Cecilia had been involved in a scandal before, and it even made the news.

At that time, Ines had seen a picture of Cecilia's profile in the news.

"She does look a bit familiar, but maybe her looks are just pleasing to our eyes," Alan commented. He was quite satisfied with the potential daughter-in-law.

Since he had said so, Ines stopped wondering about it. The two of them eavesdropped next door, planning to be upfront with Eric when he returned and ask him to bring the woman home to meet them.

In the other private room, when Eric noticed Nathaniel still hadn't returned even after he had sat down, he couldn't resist teasing, "Ms. Smith, does Mr. Rainsworth not trust me? He didn't follow you when we met in private previously."

"Of course not." Cecilia smiled, fibbing. "I asked him to come along for lunch. Since we're married, it wouldn't be appropriate for me to meet you privately behind his back."

Upon hearing her response, Eric unconsciously tightened his grip around the glass.

Next door, Alan jumped to his feet. "She's married?" he blurted.

Ines' eyes were also filled with disbelief. "Did we hear that wrong?"
