Chapter 1630 Side Profile


    Upon seeing the rain, Cecilia grew somewhat flustered. Why is it raining again? I don''t think we brought an umbre."


    While hiking up the mountain, she had checked the weather forecast which assured there wouldn''t be any rain. Nathaniel opened his backpack and found that he had forgotten to bring an umbre.


    "It''s okay. We''ll go up once the rain stops."


    "But is it okay for Jon to be alone?" Cecilia asked with concern.


    "He''s not a three-year-old child anymore. There''s no need to worry."


    Cecilia was at a loss for words. Jonathan was indeed not three years old, but he was only five or six.


    She was just about to call Jonathan when his call came through.


    Cecilia quickly answered it, only to see that Jonathan had already donned his raincoat.


    "Mommy, where are you guys now? It''s raining."


    Cecilia showed him her surroundings and replied, "We''re still resting in this pavilion. Have you reached the peak?"


    Jonathan roughly estimated that it would take at least an hour for Cecilia to reach the mountain peak.


    "Yes, the teacher handed out raincoats to us. Did you guys bring an umbre?"


    Not wanting him to worry, Cecilia lied, "We did."


    "That''s good. There''s no need for you guys to rush. Take your timeing up. The path should be a bit. slippery now. Be careful."


    Cecilia listened to his ramblings, a smile ying on her lips. "All right."


    Considering the current situation, she realized she shouldn''t have been worrying about Jonathan. Instead, she should have focused more on herself to avoid bing a burden to the child. After hanging up the phone, she said to Nathaniel, "Let''s go. We can take our time"


    "Okay."


    Nathaniel rose to his feet.


    Cecilia leaned on the pir to stand up, but in the next second, her body fell toward Nathaniel.


    She was entirely enveloped in the man''s broad embrace


    "Sorry, I just stood up and got a bit dizzy. I''m fine."


    Nathaniel simply couldn''t believe her when she imed she was fine. "All right, I''ll carry you. Don''t think

    Cecilia really didn''t know what to do at that moment.

    Nathaniel crouched down. "Come on, didn''t you say you wanted to see Jon sooner? If everyone else is there except us, won''t Jon be disappointed?"


    Cecilia no longer hesitated and got onto Nathaniel''s back.


    The man effortlessly hoisted her, striding forward with broad steps. The rain had eased, but a gust of wind still carried a hint of chill.


    Cecilia watched as he moved forward. A voice echoed in her mind.


    "I want to stand by his side through thick and thin, supporting him all the way to the finish line."


    She withdrew the hand that had been resting on the man''s shoulder.


    This statement felt like something she had said to her friends before her wedding.


    "Nathaniel, I must have liked you a lot, right?" Cecilia asked abruptly.


    Nathaniel''s steps faltered. He was uncertain of how to respond to her question.


    In the past, she had loved him not due to her own feelings, but because of a misunderstanding.


    After a long silence, Cecilia began to doubt her own judgment. "What? Isn''t that the case?"


    Regaining hisposure, Nathaniel replied, "Of course, you insisted on marrying no one but me back then." His Adam''s apple subtly moved. "You know, I have a picture in my phone."


    "Huh?" Cecilia didn''t understand why he suddenly brought that up. "That picture is a side profile of a young girl," Nathaniel continued.
