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

Chapter 1572 Going Back To Work

Nathaniel was engrossed in work at the company, completely forgetting about Cecilia's situation on her end.

What he didn't know was that, since Cecilia arrived at the company, Eric had been dropping by her office during every break, showering her with concern. "Lunchtime!" Eric beamed, carrying an assortment of delicious food.

Cecilia looked a bit surprised. "We're eating here?"

She had assumed they would go out to eat.

"There are too many people outside, and it's easy to get crowded. Eating here is better. Quiet and less chaotic," Eric explained.

Outside, Madeline and the others had initially planned to invite Cecilia to join them for lunch, but seeing the situation, they knew it was impossible.

Charlotte couldn't help but comment, "Well, if Mr. Rainsworth finds out about this, he'll get jealous and upset again."

Madeline chuckled. "It's unavoidable. If I were a man, I'd be worried too. Eric is just too much competition."

After all, he was a famous singer who was not only incredibly popular but also handsome and younger than Nathaniel. Meanwhile, Nathaniel sneezed at his distant office.

Charlotte nodded in agreement.

Just then, someone approached her. "Want to grab lunch together?"

It was Sven.

Ever since Cecilia had spoken to him, Sven had been actively inviting Charlotte to meals, movies, and strolls.
