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

Chapter 1756 Should I Be Grateful To You

When Nicholas answered the call, Cecilia's voice came through, calm and steady. "Let's meet," she said.

Nicholas tightened his grip on the phone. He remained silent for a brief moment before finally responding with a single word. "Okay."

After ending the call, he glanced at the address Cecilia had sent and instructed the driver to head there.

Jocelyn, noticing the sudden change in route, remained silent, quietly observing Nicholas from the corner of her eye.

Before long, they arrived.

Nicholas stepped out of the car, then turned to Jocelyn. "Wait for me here."

Jocelyn nodded. "All right."

She watched as Nicholas disappeared into a café, then slowly shifted her gaze away, letting out a quiet sigh.

The driver, Corvan, couldn't resist teasing, "Ms. Wright, what's going on with you? Having some trouble in your love life lately?"

Unlike her usual composed demeanor at work, Jocelyn was more at ease around Corvan, who was older than her.

She chuckled. "No, my love life has been pretty steady."
