When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 926 Just Like Me

“Jessica.”

Cassandra quickly caught up to the limping Jessica.

Jessica stopped and looked at Cassandra. “Cassandra, what is it?”

Because of Nicholas, Jessica was somewhat afraid of Cassandra.

“Nothing, I just wanted to chat with you. Where are you heading? Let’s walk together,” Cassandra said.

Jessica found it hard to refuse.

The two of them walked toward Niel’s residence.

Cassandra couldn’t help but ask Jessica, “Are you dissatisfied with Cecilia?”

Jessica was startled and quickly denied it, “No.”

How can I admit I dislike Cecilia?

“Okay, I thought you, like me, had issues with her,” Cassandra sighed.

Hearing this, Jessica asked curiously, “Cassandra, you don’t like Cecilia either?”

Cassandra nodded. “Dislike? That’s not it. I detest her. She’s such a two–faced woman. Do you think she’s content with just being Nathaniel’s wife?”

Jessica looked at her, eager to hear more gossip.

“She has feelings for Nicholas too,” Cassandra said.

It seemed as though Jessica had stumbled upon a monumental secret. She couldn’t believe it and dropped her pretense.

“How shameless! Isn’t a few men enough for her?”

“What men are you talking about?” Cassandra was confused.

Jessica didn’t hold back anymore. “Cassandra, do you know about Eric?”

Eric?

Cassandra thought carefully and quickly remembered.

Not because of anything else, but because during the recent online scandal, this Eric had spoken up for Cecilia.

“You mean that international singer?”

“Yes.” Jessica nodded, “I live in Daltonia Villa, and I’ve seen Eric secretly meeting Cecilia several times. Oh, and I’ve also heard that Cecilia is involved with someone named Calvin.”

She bid Cassandra goodbye.

Cassandra smiled as she waved her off and then left.

“Eric,” she muttered to herself, deciding that she must investigate Cecilia’s relationship with him.

If it was true, just like Jessica said, there would be a good show to watch.

Jessica went to Niel’s residence. He was relaxing and meditating, but when he saw her, he remembered the misunderstanding from the previous day and frowned. “Jessica, what are you doing here?”

“Grandpa Niel, remember what I told you? How is it going?” Jessica asked.

Niel felt that Jessica lacked tact. If he hadn’t sought her out, didn’t that imply the result?

“From now on, don’t believe rumors easily.”Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

Jessica was taken aback, “Grandpa Niel, you don’t believe me? I heard it with my own ears when Cecilia said her child isn’t a Rainsworth…”

“Hold your tongue!” Niel interrupted her sharply.

Jessica had no choice but to shut up.

“Nathaniel has already explained everything to me. What Cecilia said at the time was just to stall for time and keep Ethan from harming you all. You were foolish enough to take it seriously,” Niel didn’t even want to look at her now. “Leave now.”

It took Jessica a while to regain her senses. “Yes.”

After leaving, she recalled the conversation between Cecilia and Nathaniel after they were kidnapped. Now, she finally understood that she had been played.

D*mn it!

She had gone to complain to Niel, and now it was all for nothing.

Fortunately, Niel didn’t blame her too much as he still respected Fabian.

Jessica didn’t feel comfortable staying at Rainsworth Manor any longer and left early to return to Daltonia-
