Nicholas' usually friendly expression froze.

""Really? What a coincidence then."

He had always kept Cecilia hidden away, but he never expected that they would end up meeting like this by a twist of fate.

He didn't know whether it was Nathaniel's luck or his misfortune.

"Anyway, you shouldn't be fooled by his outward appearance. Also, if you're facing trouble at the company, you should have told me earlier," Nicholas said gently.

Cecilia lowered her head. "I don't want to trouble you with everything. I want to be independent."

She then looked up at Nicholas. "I don't want to move. Can we stay here? I will handle the company issues on my own."

When she thought about how Lysanna had treated her, she was determined to make her pay for it.

"Please." She reached out and held Nicholas' arm. "Please?"

Faced with Cecilia's pleading, Nicholas felt helpless, but he still insisted, "No, I need to be at ease."

Cecilia's mood instantly plummeted. "But I really want this job, and I don't want to leave. Why is it that you insist on leaving? I don't understand. Your brother's business is his. He can't force me to do anything, can he?" Nicholas' face was somewhat pale. "Enough, no more talking. At most, I can allow you to handover your work to your colleagues within the company. After that, we're leaving this place together."

When Cecilia heard this, disappointment filled her eyes.

In this past year, she had been going along with Nicholas because she liked him.

Yet now, he wouldn't even agree to this one thing for her.

Cecilia fell silent and stopped speaking.

Nicholas could tell she was angry and tried to comfort her. "Don't be mad. Once we move, you can continue to look for another job."

Then, he covered his mouth and began coughing.

Cecilia originally didn't want to pay attention to him, but when she heard his coughing, her heart softened.

"Why are you coughing so badly? Is your old illness acting up?" she asked.

Nicholas knew she still cared about him, and he used that to his advantage.

He coughed as he said, "It might be the weather. I'm fine, don't worry about me."

"If you really don't want to leave, I'll stay here with you, but..." He trailed off, coughing. "I'm really worried

Seeing this, Cecilia had no choice but to compromise.

"Okay. Once I'll handle things at the company, then we leave here."

Nicholas instantly sighed in relief.

At the same time, he felt incredibly guilty.

He knew using Cecilia's sympathy wasn't right, but he had no other choice.

After they got home, Cecilia poured Nicholas a glass of tea.

"Here, drink some tea, and remember to take your medicine later. You always have a hard time getting better when you catch a cold." "Mm." Nicholas watched her every move, feeling incredibly happy.

Cecilia chatted with him for a while. Seeing that it was almost time for work, she started getting ready to leave.

Nicholas stopped her. "Do you want me to accompany you?"

"No, I want to handle my matters by myself."

Cecilia thought she couldn't be behind Nicholas forever

Nicholas didn't say much more. "If anything unexpected happens, tell me right away."

"Mm." Cecilia nodded.

She then got ready to take a taxi to the company.

Nicholas was worried about her, so he insisted on having his driver take her there. Outside the company, her colleagues were buying breakfast and gossiping.novelbin
