When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 796 Reason To Divorce Cecilia

Inside the CEO’s office, Nicholas looked up as Cecilia entered, his eyes soft. “I didn’t think you’d come.”

“Why not? With only three hours of work and the opportunity to learn a lot, why wouldn’t I?” Cecilia replied candidly.

“Please, have a seat,” Nicholas said, rising from his chair.

Cecilia walked over to a nearby sofa and sat down.

Nicholas poured her a glass of water. “If there’s anything you don’t understand or need help with in the future, just reach out to me as you did before.”

Somewhat embarrassed, Cecilia accepted the glass of water. “Thank you.”

She took a sip, then asked, “Can you now tell me about the specific details of my job?”

“Of course.”

While Cecilia and Nicholas were engaged in conversation inside the office, Jessica waited outside. the door, feeling somewhat bored.

Jocelyn had also left to attend to other tasks.

With nothing else to do, Jessica wandered around aimlessly. She sent a message to Mason: Mason, I’ve come to work at Orion Corporation with Cecilia. The place is really grand. Sigh, if only you could return to the company with Nathaniel.

Meanwhile, Mason had been working at Seabay Villa.

Hearing Mason’s phone constantly ringing, Nathaniel couldn’t help but ask, “Your fiancée?”

Mason shook his head. “No, it’s Ms. Quill.”

“What’s the matter?” For reasons unknown, ever since he started living here, Nathaniel had always felt a void in his heart. It seemed that any updates about Cecilia were particularly important to him.

Upon checking his phone, Mason quickly relayed the information to Nathaniel. “Ms. Quill mentioned that she and Cecilia have started working at Orion Corporation together. Now, she serves as Mr. Nicholas‘ secretary.”

Mason had never dared to tell Nathaniel that Cecilia had once mistaken Nicholas for him and had developed feelings for Nicholas. I’m sure he’s worried that they might rekindle their past romance. I do feel a bit sorry for Mr. Rainsworth.

“She still went even after I said I wouldn’t go. How brave of her,” Nathaniel remarked with a cold sneer.

Wanting Nathaniel to be aware of more pressing issues, Mason steeled himself and said, “Mr. Rainsworth, there’s something I haven’t told you.”

“What is it?”

Mason revealed candidly that the man Cecilia had always been fond of was actually Nicholas. It was only due to her mistake in identifying him that she ended up marrying Nathaniel.

Upon hearing this, Nathaniel went completely stiff. “Is that true?”

“Yes. You knew this before your memory loss.” Mason felt it was crucial to inform Nathaniel. Otherwise, once Nathaniel regained his memory, he might blame Mason for not revealing it Sooner.

Mason had expected Nathaniel to be angry, but to his surprise, Nathaniel responded dismissively with a smirk. “She can like whoever she wants.”

Despite Nathaniel’s nonchalant response, his mind wandered throughout the day’s work.

Mason looked at the freshly signed document and noticed the name “Cecilia” written in bold in the signature space.

The atmosphere in the room grew awkwardly tense.

Meanwhile, Jessica continued to send Mason another message: Mason, don’t forget about our dinner tonight.

Mason responded with great caution: All right.

“What else did Jessica send you?” Nathaniel asked in a deep voice.

“Nothing much. She just asked me to have dinner with her tonight,” replied Mason.

Nathaniel did not ask further again.

From Nathaniel’s reaction, it was clear that he was still preoccupied with concerns about Cecilia.

“Boss, should I inform Ms. Quill to keep a close eye on Mrs. Rainsworth?”

Nathaniel was about to refuse, but a thought crossed his mind, and he replied, “Fine.”

“If she had done anything inappropriate in her capacity as Mrs. Rainsworth, I’d have a valid reason to divorce her,” Nathaniel muttered.

He felt there was no reason for them to stay together if she didn’t even like him. Nevertheless, he would still provide compensation through child support.Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
