Chapter 518 Something Is BrewingThis content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

The two were twins and naturally had a deeper understanding of each other than anyone else could.

Nathaniel’s expression remained unchanged. “So what if I did?”

“It’s no big deal. I’m just reminding you, Nicholas began slowly. “Ceci is quite innocent. But if you keep deceiving her, she might not trust you anymore.”

Nathaniel deeply disliked how well Nicholas seemed to understand Cecilia. “You don’t have to concern yourself about this.”

He paused for a moment, then lowered his voice further.

“But don’t say I didn’t warn you that my patience has its limits. If I find something, the matter that we’re brothers won’t matter.

Nathaniel quietly opened the car door, allowing the housekeeper to escort him home.

Sitting in the car, Nicholas watched his brother’s retreating figure, his eyes slightly narrowed.

A cold gust of wind swept in through the car window, causing him to suddenly break into a violent cough.

The subordinate in the car hastily poured him some warm water. “Mr. Nicholas, are you alright?”

It took a while for Nicholas to stop coughing. “I’m fine.”

“What has Stella been up to lately?”

-She had been hiding in the rental apartment, never going out,” the subordinate replied.

Stella lived in constant fear of retaliation from Zachary, never having a peaceful day.

When Nicholas was taking a moment to rest his eyes, a call came through. It was from his assistant, Jocelyn.

“Mr. Nicholas, the results of the investigation you asked me to conduct last time are out. It appears that a foreign company, known as Imminence Corporation, has taken over all our overseas projects. They seem to have a deep understanding of our internal operations. I suspect we have a mole in our company.”

On St. Patrick’s Day. Jocelyn didn’t take a break, all just to be of help to Nicholas.

Nicholas rubbed his temples. “Jocelyn, have you ever considered that it might not be an inside job, but rather someone who has already resigned?”

Jocelyn had a sudden realization. “Are you talking about Mr. Nathaniel? But didn’t he lose his memory? And he’s blind too…”

If it truly was Nathaniel, then it would be a tall order for a blind man to actually challenge a corporation.

“Jocelyn, you can keep your speculations to yourself.”

Nicholas added, “It’s St. Patrick’s Day today. You don’t need to keep investigating. Go get some rest.”

There was a moment of silence from Jocelyn on the other end of the phone before she spoke. “I don’t have any relatives in Tudela, so there’s no need for me to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day. Since I have nothing else to do, I’ll investigate a little more. By the time spring comes along, it’ll be easier for me to handle the shareholders at the board meeting.

After hearing this, Nicholas spoke in a gentle voice.

“I’ll give you the week off. Go home and visit your parents.”

“That’s not necessary…

“Consider this as a job assignment from me.”

At that moment, Jocelyn was sitting at her desk at home, clutching her mobile phone. Her were brimming with happiness.

eyes

“Alright. Thank you, Mr. Nicholas.”

After ending the call, Jocelyn booted up her computer, intending to purchase a flight ticket. However, she was suddenly drawn to the headline on the web:

Breaking! Intimate photos from eight years ago of Stella Ross and Nathaniel Rainsworth, the former CEO of Rainsworth Group, surfaced!

Jocelyn clicked on the title, and what she saw were several photos of Stella and Nathaniel lying in bed.

She had a look of surprise in her eyes.

“Mr. Nathaniel was indeed involved with this female celebrity, but who exactly leaked the photos?”

The netizens exploded into an uproar.

Meanwhile, Nicholas was watching the news, a broad smile spreading across his face.

Now, how will you explain yourself when you have amnesia? This is just the beginning.

Stella had grown up studying alongside Cecilia and understood the latter well.

She knew how to make Cecilia feel miserable and how to make her willingly give up on someone.

The following morning, Cecilia was awakened by the ring of Vivian’s phone call.
