When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 1124 Be An Assistant

“Ms. Smith is already divorced now. If you truly have feelings for her, you must avoid marrying Cassandra at all costs.” Jocelyn genuinely had Nicholas‘ best interests at heart. “I believe that if you treat Ms. Smith right, she will surely reconcile with you.”

Nicholas found Jocelyn to be genuinely naive.

“Jocelyn, people change. She stopped loving me a long time ago.”

Jocelyn was confused. “How could that be? She was in love with you before. She must still have feelings for you now. It’s just that she might not be able to express it directly because of the children.”

Had Nicholas not been more adept at understanding people than Jocelyn, he would have truly believed what she said.

He was then fully aware that Cecilia didn’t love him.

Perhaps what was once called love was merely a young girl’s admiration and gratitude for a boy who often took care of her.

“You’re overthinking it.” Nicholas took a deep breath. A glint of determination flickered in his eyes. “All I ́ want now is to win her back, in my own way!”

He desired to win over Cecilia. In order to do that, he had to be more ruthless and detached than Nathaniel.

Before that could happen, he needed to secure the support of the Jamieson family.

Jocelyn knew she couldn’t persuade Nicholas, so she stopped trying.

With her head lowered, she said, “You’re so stubborn. Don’t ever ask me to look for a boyfriend or a husband again. I don’t need that. My happiness lies in being alone.”

Seeing the situation, Nicholas couldn’t help but laugh helplessly.

“All right, then.”

Jocelyn began tidying up, taking the cup he had drunk from to wash.

At that time, Cassandra came over and saw Jocelyn tidying up. Nicholas was sitting on the couch, engrossed in his phone. The pair’s demeanor reminded her of a couple she had seen outside.

She walked straight in and said, “Ms. Wright, I just found out that you also manage Mr. Rainsworth’s personal life!”

Jocelyn was wiping a glass when she heard Cassandra’s voice behind her, causing her hand to pause slightly.

She turned around. Her face was expressionless as she responded mechanically, “Ms. Evans, my previous job was to take care of Mr. Nicholas. All of this is simply part of my duties.”

Cassandra then sneered commandingly, “We have plenty of housekeepers at home. You don’t need to come here anymore. From now on, just like any other assistant, go to the office when it’s time to work.”

Upon hearing this, Jocelyn did not respond. Instead, she turned her gaze toward Nicholas.

Cassandra approached Nicholas and said, “Nicholas, what do you think of my suggestion? We need to clearly define everyone’s roles. If everyone starts behaving like Ms. Wright, wouldn’t that create chaos?”

Upon hearing this, Nicholas turned to Jocelyn and said, “Cassandra is right. From now on, you only need to focus on your responsibilities within the company. There are others to handle my personal matters.”

Jocelyn never expected that after all these years of caring for him, she would end up being told off that day.

She didn’t utter a word, merely nodded, and then left the place.

Cassandra watched the disoriented figure of Jocelyn retreating, and she couldn’t help but feel incredibly pleased.

Having driven Cecilia and Jocelyn away, Nicholas‘ side was left with only one woman, and that was Cassandra. She didn’t need to worry too much anymore.

“Nicholas, thank you.”

Cassandra leaned toward Nicholas, yearning for a moment of closeness with him.

Nicholas‘ brows knitted slightly, and he was holding back the urge to push her away. “Cassandra, you’re pregnant. Be careful,” he warned.Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

After he finished speaking, he gently let her go.

“Let’s go. Aren’t we supposed to get our wedding photos taken today?”

Cassandra was initially a bit upset, but upon hearing those words, she immediately cheered up.

“All right. When the time comes, I’m going to share our wedding photos with the whole world,” she declared.

Naturally, Nicholas appeared to always listen to her on the surface.
