Chapter 149 He Gave In
Nathaniel looked up and asked, “Why did she cby?”
Cecelia handed Nathaniel the blank check that Elena had given her. “She gavethis and wantedto leave
you.”
Nathaniel stared at the check. “You agreed?”
All Cecelia needed to do was fill in an amount on the check, and she could instantly repay her debts.
“No, | won't take the money. We had an agreement,” Cecelia replied, shaking her head. If | leave now, how could
| possibly give birth to the triplets? | won't be able to save Eli if | do.
Cecelia handed him the check. “Here. Take it back.”
Nathaniel took the check, briefly glanced at it, and tossed it into the trash bin. He then looked back at Cecelia,

Upon hearing these words, Cecelia clenched her fists.
After using a warm handkerchief to wipe his hands, Nathaniel stood in front of her.

In the gentle breeze of a midsummer’s night, Stella stood at the doorway, clad in a light-colored slip dress. Her
eyes, brimming with unshed tears, could easily evoke a sense of pity in anyone who witnessed them.
The moment she realized it was Cecelia who had opened the door, her gaze shifted slightly. Then, in a gentle
voice, she said, “I'm looking for Nathaniel.”
It was easy to see how both Nathaniel and Zachary could be captivated by the charm of a beauty with such a
wistful allure.
When Cecelia shifted her gaze away and looked back, Nathaniel had already walked over.
The moment Stella saw him, a wave of emotion washed over her, causing tears to fall uncontrollably.
“Nathaniel.”
Nathaniel knitted his brows, puzzled as to why she would chere at this hour.
Unmindful of her surroundings, Stella walked straight up to Nathaniel, tears streaming down her cheeks.
“Nathaniel, that guy cback shortly after you left...”

Listening from the sidelines. Cecelia quickly grasped the situation-it seemed a stalker was targeting Stella.
“I'll arrange a hotel for you.” Nathaniel suggested.
When he was about to make a call, Stella suddenly grabbed his hand. “Nathaniel, you promisedyou'd give
Tears streamed down her cheeks.
Nathaniel had always refused to cross his boundaries for the sake of others.
Yet, that day, he gave in. “All right.”
