When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 1748

Chapter 1748 The Two Have Reconciled
After Queenie finished getting her wound looked at, she didn't hesitate to call Cecilia over.

Cecilia approached her and took a seat. Feeling a tad awkward, she called out, “Mom.”

Queenie's eyes curved gently with her smile, radiating warmth from their depths.

“Hello.” She slowly lifted her hand, intending to reach for Cecilia. However, worried about Cecilia potentially rejecting her, she left her hand hanging in mid-air.

Upon seeing that, Cecilia leaned closer without any hesitation.

At this point, Queenie finally dared to touch Cecilia. She cautiously stroked the latter's head, then gently embraced her.

“Ceci, my Ceci...” she chanted over and over, cradling the person in her arms as if Cecilia were a rare treasure.

Cecilia had never dared to imagine that she, too, would one day experience familial affection or receive such maternal love.

“I'm here, Mom,” she replied gently.

When Nathaniel found out about the incident, he rushed over in a hurry. He arrived at the doorway just in time to catch sight of this scene.

Now, the mother and daughter had completely reconciled, fully acknowledging each other.

Scorpius was smiling ear to ear. “How wonderful! Ceci has finally accepted Mdm. Queenie as her mother.”

Nathaniel also nodded in agreement. “Yes, this is what Ceci has always wanted the most.”

The two of them left in silent agreement, leaving the mother and daughter alone to spend time together.

Cecilia allowed herself to be held by Queenie for a long while before she asked to examine the latter's wound.

“Let me see how bad the injury is,” said Cecilia.

Queenie brushed it off nonchalantly. “It's nothing, just a minor skin injury. The doctor said it's only a small cut.”

She was particularly spirited at that moment, and even if the wound was hurting, she likely wouldn't feel a thing.

“Don't do something like this again in the future. Always prioritize yourself,” Cecilia advised.

Queenie, however, didn't agree. “What nonsense are you talking about? Where in the world can you find a mother who doesn't put her child first? Silly.”

At this moment, Cecilia had a multitude of questions brewing within her. Once Queenie had somewhat regained her composure, she couldn't help but voice her queries. “Mom, I need to ask you something. Who was it that caused me to be abandoned back then? And another thing, who is my biological father?”

Since Regas had always treated Cecilia well, she never sought to find her biological father.

However, now that she had acknowledged her relationship with Queenie, she was naturally also curious to know who her biological father was.

Upon hearing the questions, Queenie fell silent for a moment.

“It's a long story, Ceci. Could you possibly give me a few days first?” Queenie asked.

“All right.” Cecilia didn't insist further.

The mother and daughter then talked about some other matters.

Most of the conversation revolved around Queenie showing interest in Cecilia's childhood.

It wasn't until Charlotte and the others came to visit Queenie that the two stopped their conversation.
