Chapter 1632 I Will Be With You
A lump formed in Miranda's throat again, and a glint of coldness flashed across her eyes.
"We're all adults here. Don't you get what I'm saying?" Miranda's tone was dripping with sarcasm. "Or are you too embarrassed to admit it?"
Cecilia maintained a calm demeanor. "What's there to be embarrassed about? Nicholas and I have always been just ordinary friends."
Miranda didn't believe her at all.
"Really? That's interesting. I've never seen a platonic friendship between a man and a woman." She glanced at Nathaniel. "Nathaniel, I'm just speaking my mind. You two should live your lives well. Don't take my words to heart." Naturally, Nathaniel believed what Cecilia had said, which made him feel even more relieved.
"Thanks for your concern. We'll be just fine." He was grateful to Miranda for bringing up the topic he dared not ask about.
Miranda's lips twitched before she turned and walked away.
Once she left, a look of discomfort washed over Cecilia's face.
After she returned, no one brought up her past with Nicholas, and she didn't mention it either.
Miranda's direct questioning made her feel uncomfortable.
She looked at Nathaniel. "Do you trust me?"
It was difficult to believe that a man and a woman could live together for a year without experiencing anything significant.
Before Nathaniel could respond, Cecilia quickly added, "It's all right, you don't have to answer. Whether you trust me or not, I can accept it."
She lowered her head and moved forward.
Nathaniel took a few steps to reach her side, taking her hand in his.
"Of course I trust you. But even if something did happen between you two, I wouldn't mind because I know you no longer remember me."
He held her hand tightly, filling her heart with warmth.
Cecilia felt a pang of guilt. All these days, she had only managed to recall fragments of her past. Her memories were still far from fully restored. "I'm sorry I forgot you," she whispered.
"It's all right. We can start getting to
know each other from now on,"
Nathaniel said, forcing a smile.

She stood against the cold wind, her eyes filled with undeniable jealousy.
She picked up her phone and dialed a number.
A man's gentle voice came over the phone. "Miranda, you've finally called me. Have you not missed me during this time?"
"When are you free? Let's meet up." Miranda simply couldn't bear the days of being alone.
"Aren't you afraid Adrian will find out?"
The mention of Adrian made
Miranda angry. "Why should I be afraid of him? He's all bark and no bite. He wouldn't dare to do anything to Nathaniel." She took a deep breath. "Now that his leg is better, he's back to his philandering ways again."
Upon hearing this, the man couldn't help but laugh.
"All right, my dear, make some time to come out tonight. I'll be with you."
A hint of amusement flashed in Miranda's eyes. "Okay, bye."
Reluctantly, she ended the call, but her mood improved considerably afterward.
