When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 1905 Seeking Death

Caught off guard, Alec quickly clutched his chest in pain.

He even started coughing.

He truly hadn't anticipated that his return would be met with such a reception.

He had initially sought out Duncan, intending to complain about the injustice he had suffered, expecting Duncan to right the wrongs done to him. Unexpectedly, he ended up being scolded by Duncan instead.

"You dumb*ss! Do you even know who you were flirting with today?"

"Huh?" Alec was somewhat baffled.

"One of them is Darren's wife, another is Nathaniel's wife, and another is the daughter-in-law of the Sinclair family. Do you wish to die?" Duncan nearly had a heart attack.

It was important to note that he couldn't afford to offend even a single person among them.

"Especially that woman you mentioned to me, Cecilia, she's the CEO of Jamieson Group! Jamieson Group has always been in partnership with our family, and you had the audacity to flirt with her. It's like you have a death wish!"

"What?" Alec was also taken aback. No wonder those five women exuded an extraordinary aura. They were all quite beautiful, with a daring spirit to boot.

"W-What do we do now?"

"What else can we do? Apologize in person!" Duncan pointed at Alec's, enunciating, "Thank goodness we have your older brother. If we had to rely on you, our family would be ruined."

"You're just too biased. Would I have resorted to such measures if you weren't?”

Duncan swiftly slapped Alec across the face.

The sting of heat radiated from Alec's cheeks, and he covered his face, not daring to utter another word.

Meanwhile, Cecilia had fun into the wee hours of the night before bidding farewell to everyone else.

When she stepped outside, she saw Nathaniel's car parked at the entrance.

Cecilia couldn't help but be surprised.

Nathaniel opened the car door and stepped out.

Outside, the cold wind was rampant, with light rain falling.

Nathaniel approached Cecilia, his large hand enveloping her slightly chilly ones. "Why are your hands so cold?" he asked.

"Maybe I caught a chill when I first came out." Cecilia then asked, "What brings you here at this hour?"

"Darren mentioned there was a bit of a situation here, so I came to check it out. Is everything all right?"

Cecilia nodded. "Everything's fine."

When she was speaking, she could hear Zachary's voice from not too far away.

"Gosh! You're pregnant! How could you come to a place like this?"

Cecilia looked over and saw Zachary standing before Vivian, constantly murmuring to her.

Vivian clearly had no patience for him, responding with irritation, "You're married, so why on earth would you be in a place like this?"

"I just came over for a drink and a chat. I didn't do anything else," Zachary said.

"I just came over for a chat, and I didn't even have a drink," said Vivian.

Zachary was completely at a loss for words.noveldrama

Cecilia couldn't help but smile as she watched the two of them. These two lively characters seem to be growing more and more compatible as time goes on.

"Let's go. Get in the car. I'll take you to the hospital," Nathaniel said,

Only then did Cecilia come back to her senses, joining him in the car.

Sitting in the car, the heat was more than sufficient. Feeling slightly drowsy, Cecilia almost fell asleep leaning against Nathaniel.

Nathaniel held her hand tightly, saying, "Ceci, did you forget something?"

Cecilia seemed a bit bewildered. "Huh? What did I forget?"

"Didn't we agree to get our marriage certificate?" Nathaniel asked.

Finally, Cecilia remembered, a hint of guilt coloring her face. "I'm sorry. I forgot," she said.

"Let's go tomorrow, and this time,

"All right," Cecilia promptly agreed.
