When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 1123 His Happiness

With a swift stretch of his hand, Nathaniel quickly picked up his phone. Upon checking, he found that it was just a regular push notification.

He could no longer sleep. He got up and checked his notifications. There it was, the news that Nicholas was about to get engaged to Cassandra.

Below was a flurry of positive comments.

They’re truly a perfect match! I’m envious.

They’re really equally matched in status.

Cassandra truly has it all in life. Not only is Nicholas incredibly handsome, but he’s also the person in charge of Orion Corporation.

Everyone was quick to give their blessing.

Nathaniel was just about to put his phone away when he suddenly saw a comment about himself and Cecilia. The comment read: I recall when Nathaniel, the elder brother of Nicholas, got married, his wife was even more beautiful than Cassandra.

I’ve managed to find a side profile photo from back then. It really looks great.

Nathaniel had also seen the side profile photo from the wedding.

He wasn’t very interested in the wedding at that time, so he also didn’t allow the media to cover it extensively or take photographs.

Hence, their wedding didn’t garner much attention, and there were no recordings of their marriage. This photo might have been taken by a paparazzi risking their life.

Nathaniel selected the photo and saved it.

After Cecilia woke up, she saw the messages Nathaniel had sent.

She was about to respond when she remembered what Nathaniel had said. He hadn’t fully recovered yet, and he was wary of potential retaliation from his enemies.From NôvelDrama.Org.

With the advancement in technology, it was then possible to track someone’s location through mobile chats. When Nathaniel sent a message, there was no telling what special measures he might have taken. If one were to reply there and then, it could potentially be discovered by those with ulterior motives.

With that in mind, Cecilia simply deleted the chat history that Nathaniel had sent over.

Her hunch was indeed correct. Nicholas had been unable to locate Nathaniel and was growing increasingly anxious. He had indeed instructed someone to hack into Cecilia’s phone.

However, Nicholas had yet to find any leads on Nathaniel.

“After all this time, can we still not locate that fool?”

Nicholas‘ expression was gloomy.

The subordinates kept their heads down, daring not to utter a word.

They knew Nicholas‘ true nature, and each of them was visibly shaken.

Just as Nicholas was about to lose his temper, there came a knock on the door from outside.

Nicholas commanded his subordinates, “All of you, get out!”

One by one, his subordinates left with their heads bowed.

Jocelyn stood by the door, holding medicine and warm water in her hands. “Mr. Nicholas, it’s time for your medication,” she said.

“All right. Thank you.”

Nicholas had once again regained his usual gentle and refined demeanor, a stark contrast to his previous state.

He took the medicine and swallowed it, then turned to Jocelyn and asked, “Jocelyn, how old are you this year?”

Upon hearing the question, Jocelyn pondered for a moment before replying, “Twenty–eight.”

“Have you been taking care of me for almost nine years now?” Nicholas asked again.

Without a second thought, Jocelyn corrected him, stating, “It’s been ten years.”

When she was seventeen, she took up a job caring for Nicholas to support herself and her family financially.

A decade had already passed since then.

Nicholas really hadn’t expected it. She had actually taken care of him for such a long time.

“I’m about to get married, and you’re not getting any younger. It’s time you found someone to take care of you.” Nicholas knew that for a woman, being twenty–eight was indeed not young. It was time to find her own happiness.

From what he knew, Jocelyn had never been in a relationship up to that point.

Upon hearing his words, Jocelyn stared at him, somewhat taken aback. “I have no interest in dating or getting married,” she said.

“Silly girl, who doesn’t want to get married?” Nicholas asked with a laugh.

“Are you excited about your upcoming wedding? Do you feel happy?” Jocelyn inquired.

Nicholas‘ voice tightened. “You know, I don’t have the capacity to chase after happiness right now.”
