When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 1176 In The Rain.

Cecilia was initially taken aback, but then she nodded. “I know. Congratulations to you.”

Congratulations! Nicholas felt a dryness in his throat. He just stood there, at a loss for words.

Inside the house, Elliot noticed that Cecilia hadn’t returned yet, so he stepped out. That was when he saw Cecilia standing with Nicholas, someone he was scared of.

In a rush, Elliot called out. “Mommy.”

Lespite Nicholas having saved him before, Elliot was still somewhat afraid of this man, fearing he might harm Cecilia

Upon hearing Elliot’s shout, Cecilia was instantly relieved and promptly handed over the umbrella she was holdin

Nicholas

“I’m heading back in,” she said.

Nicholas held the still–warm umbrella, watching as Cecilia gradually disappeared from his sight..

What he didn’t know was that not far from him. Jocelyn was also holding an umbrella.

Upon seeing Cecilia offering Nicholas an umbrella, she simply put her umbrella away.

In order to spare Nicholas any embarrassment, Jocelyn pretended as if she hadn’t seen anything and left.

At times, love can be truly peculiar. Why can’t the cupid make two people fall for each other? Jocelyn hadn’t really been in many relationships. All she ever wanted was to find someone who was mutually committed to her.

At that moment, she felt it was incredibly hard.

Cecilia always resided in the depth of Nichol

heart. Even when he was abroad for medical treatment years ago, the name he called out in his delirium was Cecilia’s. That never changed.Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.

Regrettably, the one she had always adored, through a twist of fate, was marrying someone else, and he had also fallen in love with someone else.

Life has a way of playing tricks on us… Jocelyn threw her umbrella into the trash bin and walked home in the rain.

Nicholas and Cassandra’s wedding ceremony was scheduled for the day after the next day.

In her impatience, Cassandra sought out Nicholas, intending to share a room with him, only to find Jocelyn was already there.

“Ms. Wright, haven’t I made myself clear? You are Nicholas‘ work assistant, nothing more. In your personal time, you should return to your own place.”

Drenched from the rain, Jocelyn merely changed her clothes before she respectfully said, “The wedding preparations have been rather hectic these past few days. Mr. Nicholas asked me to come over and lend a hand.”

Upon hearing her words, Cassandra finally decided to let it go. “Where’s Nicholas?”

Obviously, Jocelyn wouldn’t tell her. She just shook her head.

“You’re absolutely useless. You don’t seem to know anything. Are you even a chief personal assistant?”

Jocelyn still wasn’t angry. She just felt dizzy, possibly due to a fever after being caught in the rain.

Cassandra didn’t manage to find Nicholas and left, feeling uninterested.

After she left, Jocelyn carried on with her work.

Perhaps it was because she had always been taking care of Nicholas, so she hadn’t paid much attention to her own health. As a result, after a short period of work, she fainted at her desk.

Yet, in the end, Nicholas never showed up.

When she woke up, it was already dark outside, and Nicholas had not yet returned.

Jocelyn gazed into the surrounding darkness, a sudden wave of sadness washing over her. If I were to die here today, would Mr. Nicholas even notice

After that thought crossed her mind, she couldn’t help but let out a bitter smile. “What am I even thinking?”

Enduring a throbbing headache, Jocelyn managed to get up and switch on the room light. After tidying up the place, she

ventured out alone.

When Nicholas returned, he happened to run into her.

“Are you going back?” he asked.

Jocelyn gave a slight nod. “Yes. I’m feeling a bit dizzy. I’m planning to go to the hospital to get some cold medicine.”

Nicholas casually expressed his concern by saying, “Take good care of yourself.”

A glint flashed in Jocelyn’s eyes. “All right.”

After a brief exchange between the two, Jocelyn, before departing, made sure to inform him that Cassandra had been looking for him
