When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 2117

Time flew by.

Not long after Cecilia returned to Tudela, Magnus brought Denise over.

When Cecilia saw the plainly dressed, somewhat nervous young woman standing before her, she immediately stood up and invited her to sit down.

"Come, have a seat. Don't be shy," Cecilia said gently.

Denise had previously imagined Cecilia to be a middle-aged, plump woman, but was surprised to find that the latter was both beautiful and young, nothing like the female CEOs described in the news.

"T-Thank you," Denise stammered nervously.

At that sight, Magnus held Denise's hand and led her to a chair. "Come on, don't be nervous. My sister is very nice."

Denise nodded, then handed the gift bag she was holding to Cecilia. It was an expensive set of skincare products, probably worth over ten thousand.

"Cecilia, I wasn't sure what to get you. This is a small token of my appreciation. Thank you for helping me find my parents," Denise said earnestly.

She knew that this gift might not be much to Cecilia, so she quickly added, "There's also a scarf inside; I knitted it myself. The weather's getting cold, so if it ever becomes of use to you, you can wear it."

"Okay." Cecilia accepted the gifts as she knew Denise would feel very uneasy if she didn't.

After a pause, she said, "But please don't buy me expensive skincare products in the future. The scarf you knitted for me is perfect; I like it a lot."

Cecilia knew Denise had to pay for Brycen and Calliope's treatment, which meant that she couldn't possibly spare any money to buy her gifts.

Cecilia was also aware that the cost of the set of skincare products was an astronomical figure to Denise—it was the best she could afford.

Denise nodded repeatedly, her gaze filled with even deeper gratitude toward Cecilia.

At the same time, she was very perplexed. Magnus' sister is completely different from him—not only is she beautiful, but she's also incredibly approachable.
