When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel)

Chapter 949 Bullying Jessica

Inside the company, everyone was buzzing with discussions about how Cecilia managed to secure the contract.

Nicholas had also summoned Cecilia to his office, inquiring about how she managed to do it.

Cecilia responded truthfully, “I happened to know a friend of Ms. Hardy. Thanks to that friend, I got acquainted with Ms. Hardy.”

“So that’s how it is.” Nicholas glanced outside, noticing the darkening sky. “It’s getting late, let’s call it a day. I’ll drive you home.”

“No need.” Cecilia immediately declined.

“Didn’t the driver drop you off today?” Nicholas asked.

He had someone follow Cecilia, knowing that Cecilia had taken a taxi to Hardy Group that day.

Embarrassed, Cecilia replied, “Nathaniel has offered to drive me home from now on.”

Nicholas‘ expression momentarily stiffened, but he quickly regained his composure.

“I see. You should finish work early then, don’t keep Nathaniel waiting too long.”

“Mhm.” Cecilia nodded, then stepped out of the office.
