Quickly, night fell. The stars in the sky above could be seen from the foot of the mountain.

Cecilia and Jonathan were seated together, while Nathaniel sat a meter away. He had arranged for someone to come over and grill meat.

The wafting aroma of the grilled meat attracted quite a few children and their mothers.

One by one, they looked over.

Feeling embarrassed, Cecilia said, "Jon, why don't you invite the other kids, their mothers, and your teacher over?"

She hadn't expected that Nathaniel would arrange a barbecue.

The other night, she had casually mentioned that it would be perfect to have a barbecue while camping outdoors.noveldrama

"Okay."

Jonathan dusted off his behind, got up, and approached the other families, leaving Cecilia and Nathaniel behind.

Cecilia inhaled the aroma of the grilled meat and ignored Nathaniel.

"Here." Nathaniel handed her the grilled meat.

"You go

ahead and eat first. I'll have what I've grilled myself." Still feeling awkward from their recent argument, Cecilia hesitated to accept the meat he had grilled. She was independent and self-sufficient.

Her rejection caused a bitter taste to well up in Nathaniel's heart.

"I don't like eating barbecue. If you don't want to eat it, I'll just throw it away," he snapped.

Cecilia had never encountered someone like him before. She immediately took it and said, "It would be such a waste if you threw it away. If you're not going to eat it, don't bother grilling it." She was simply being frank and didn't mean anything else.

But the Nathaniel of now did not resemble the commanding CEO who used to take the business world by storm. Instead, he seemed more like a henpecked husband,

His thoughts immediately went astray.

He let out a cold laugh, assuming that she had even started to disdain the meat he grilled for

her.

Cecilia happily indulged in her meal, unaware of his thoughts. When the teacher and other parents arrived, she hastily invited everyone to join in.

The atmosphere here instantly livened up, leaving Cecilia with even less time to concern herself with Nathaniel's mood.

Nathaniel watched as Cecilia and the group of parents chatted and laughed together. He had never felt time pass so slowly, so agonizingly. Finally, when everyone had their fill and the commotion subsided, they all started to leave on after another.

After freshening up, Cecilia went inside the tent to set up the sleeping bag.

"It's getting late. Why don't we take a stroll to aid digestion before heading off to bed?"

"Okay," Jonathan agreed without hesitation.

Nathaniel sat off to the side, quietly observing the heartwarming scene.

Finally, as the deep night fell, the family found themselves asleep inside the tent.

As they were using sleeping bags and Jonathan was sleeping in the middle of the two, Cecilia quickly fell asleep without feeling any awkwardness.

Listening to the steady rhythm of Cecilia's breathing, Jonathan wriggled his way out of the sleeping bag.

"All right, let's switch places," he said in a low voice.

Only then did Nathaniel realize he was helping him, and he had no reason to refuse. He ended up sleeping next to Cecilia, casually wrapping his arms around her through the sleeping bag.

The weather had warmed up by now, and he was itching to discard his sleeping bag.

Cecilia felt a heaviness weighing down on her body in her dream. She wanted to get up, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't. She couldn't even open her eyes.

She didn't sleep well. The next morning, she was awakened by the clamor of children.

Slowly, she opened her eyes, only to realize that, at some point, she had fallen asleep in Nathaniel's arms.

She was momentarily startled. She swiftly checked herself and was relieved to find that she was still inside her sleeping bag.

Without uttering another word, she attempted to quietly slip out from Nathaniel's embrace.

The man, being a light sleeper, opened his eyes.

"You're up?"

Their eyes met, and Cecilia was overcome with embarrassment. "What happened? How did we end up sleeping together?"
