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

Chapter 1669 Who Is He

It wasn't Yannick at the door-it was Nicholas.

Jocelyn was stunned to see him. "Mr. Nicholas? Why are you here? Is something wrong?"

Nicholas looked at her face, trying his best to suppress the chaotic emotions swirling within him.

"It's nothing. I just saw that you weren't replying to my messages or calls and thought something might have happened," he lied.

Jocelyn quickly grabbed her phone from the table and saw that Nicholas had indeed called and texted her.

"I'm sorry, I had my phone on silent. It's been raining, and I was busy all day, so I didn't check my phone," she explained.

Nicholas walked in without waiting for an invitation, his eyes immediately catching sight of an extra cup on the coffee table.

"What's going on?" he asked casually, though his tone had a slight edge.

"I went to meet my boyfriend's family today," Jocelyn hesitated for a moment before answering.

Her boyfriend's family? Meeting the parents already? That is quick.

"Why the sudden relationship? Who's the guy?" Nicholas feigned ignorance.

Jocelyn clenched her fists slightly. "It's Yannick."
