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

Chapter 1239 I Need You To Expose Her

Cassandra rushed to the hospital in a flurry. When she saw Jocelyn standing by Nicholas‘ bedside, frustration welled up within her. “Why is Nicholas in the hospital? Haven’t you been taking proper care of him?”

The barrage of accusations roused Nicholas from his sleep, causing him to furrow his brows involuntarily.

He said to Jocelyn. “You should go back and rest first.”

“All right.” Jocelyn nodded, politely excusing herself from the ward.

Cassandra’s mood soured further as she watched Nicholas defend his assistant. She voiced her displeasure, “Nicholas, are you upset because I reprimanded her? I’m just worried about you. Besides, the doctor mentioned that I’m pregnant, so the hormonal changes are causing mood swings.”

Nicholas listened in silence, his expression unreadable Instead of responding to her complaint, he asked, “Weren’t you supposed to accompany your sister for your nephew’s check–up? Why are you back so soon?”

“The check–up was nearly over, so Mom asked me to leave early,” Cassandra replied softly, leaning closer to him as she spoke. “After all, we just got married and should spend more time together.”

Cassandra’s attempt to move closer made Nicholas visibly uncomfortable, a chill settling in his eyes.
