When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 492 Just Passing By

Vivian stepped out of the car, gathering her courage as she walked toward Nathaniel.

“Mr. Rainsworth.”

Nathaniel stood still, getting straight to the point. “What’s the matter?”

On the way there, Vivian had already prepared her speech and immediately said, “Ceci is a kind. and innocent girl. The reason she’s been somewhat nice to you these past few months is because you lost your memory and went blind, not because of some nonsensical love. Please don’t misunderstand.”

Nathaniel furrowed his brows. “So, what’s your point?”

“Could you please leave Ceci alone and stop pestering her?” Vivian clenched her fists, trying to seem more assertive.

Nathaniel responded calmly, “And what if I don’t?”

It had not been easy for him to convince Cecilia to start over, how could he possibly give up so casily?

Vivian was taken aback, not expecting that even after losing his memory, Nathaniel was still as difficult to deal with, his words sounding harsh..

“Do you think you can provide Ceci with a happy life? You’re blind, you can’t even take care of yourself, how can you take care of her, let alone a child? You’re not possibly expecting her to take care of you all the time, are you? If you think you can just mooch off her, think again! Also, even though you can’t remember the past due to your amnesia, I do. You used to despise her just because she had hearing impairment. Now that you’re blind, how can you be so shameless? Don’t you feel inferior?”

Vivian wasn’t particularly adept at hurling insults. After managing to string together a lengthy tirade, her face turned beet red from the effort.

Had this been the past, Nathaniel would have been quick to anger. But now, he was not. Instead, flicker of complexity passed through his eyes.

“All these concerns you have, I’ll take care of them. I’ve never been one to live off others.” “How are you going to manage it?” Vivian asked. “Ceci told me that you owe a massive debt.”

Nathaniel was slightly taken aback, clearly not expecting Cecilia and Vivian to share such a close bond

If he were to explain now that he was wealthy, Vivian would expose his act of pretending to be poor.

If he admitted to having no money, it would be the same as confessing that he was living off someone else’s generosity.

“What’s the matter, can’t find an excuse now? I’m not Ceci, you can’t deceive me. You should leave sooner rather than later. Pay back the money you owe yourself, or have your mother do it for you.”Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

Nathaniel, with his strikingly handsome face, looked somewhat serious. “I’ve started a new business privately. It will start making money soon.”

He never imagined that one day, money would become a barrier between him and Cecilia.

“How soon is soon? What kind of company is it? It’s not some fly–by–night operation, is it?” Vivian was always frank and outspoken, unafraid to offend him.

Nathaniel’s handsome, sharp eyebrows were tightly knitted.

“I’ll explain it to you after the new year.”

Vivian was about to say something else, but when Cecilia saw that Nathaniel had been out for a while and hadn’t returned, she stepped in. “Vivian, didn’t you say you couldn’t make it today?”

When Vivian saw Cecilia, she felt like a child who had done something wrong.

“Ah, I was just passing by. Grandpa asked me to buy some stuff, so it was on the way.”

After she finished speaking, she lowered her voice and warned Nathaniel, “Regardless of whether there is truth to your words, if you dare hurt Ceci again, I will never forgive you, even in death. Also, you must refrain from telling Ceci what we talked about today.”

After issuing her warning, Vivian departed.

The bodyguards hidden in the shadows each broke out in a cold sweat.

Good heavens, was this woman courting death?

Cecilia waved goodbye to Vivian, then moved over to Nathaniel’s side, asking, “What can we buy here?”

This place was a hillside villa, there was absolutely no merchandise for sale.

“What did Vivian talk to you about?”
