When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 1384 Do We Tell Her

At Imminence Corporation, Nathaniel called Ernest over and asked him to investigate the Jamieson family.

However, Ernest seemed distracted, his mind clearly elsewhere.

Nathaniel looked up at him. "What's wrong?"

"Nothing. I'll get to it," Ernest replied, snapping out of it before heading out.

As soon as he left, Mason walked in and informed Nathaniel, "The day after tomorrow is Vivian and Mr. Sinclair's wedding."

Nathaniel raised an eyebrow slightly at the news.

"Isn't Vivian the one Ernest gave up on? So now that she's about to get married, he suddenly pulls this stunt?"

Honestly, as a man, Nathaniel couldn't stand Ernest's behavior, never satisfied with what he had.

Mason quickly explained what he knew. "Mr. Rainsworth, you don't know the full story. There's actually a reason Ernest let Vivian go." Nathaniel gave him a long look, signaling him to continue.

It wasn't that Nathaniel was being nosy, but since Vivian was Cecilia's best friend, anything concerning her naturally piqued his interest.

"Back then, when the two of them broke up, it was actually because Vivian's father beat Ernest so badly that he almost lost his life. His leg was nearly broken, and he barely made it out alive," Mason began, clicking his tongue as he spoke. "To survive, Ernest fled to Drocver, where he met his current wife."

"His wife saved him and tirelessly cared for him when he was crippled," Mason continued.

Nathaniel tapped his fingers lightly on the table. "And then he married her out of gratitude?"

"It's not just that," Mason elaborated. "After Ernest recovered, his wife's father helped him become a prominent lawyer. Through this, Ernest met a lot of people and started thinking about reconciling with Vivian. He then gained Roland's approval. That's when he made a trip back to Tudela."

"And then?"

Hearing this, Ernest didn't sound like the scoundrel Cecilia and her friends had described.

"But when Ernest got back to Tudela and met Vivian again, he also received a call from his father-in-law. That's when he learned that his wife had been diagnosed with stomach cancer and didn't have much time left."

"Ernest isn't the type to forget kindness. Knowing that his wife had always loved him and wanted to marry him, he gave up on Vivian and chose to stay with his wife," Mason finished, sighing. en

"Fate really plays tricks on people. Who would've thought his wife would end up with a terminal illness? He could've repaid her kindness in some other way."

Nathaniel fell silent after hearing the story.

He recalled his own past with Stella, where he had entered a relationship with her out of gratitude.

Back then, he hadn't loved Cecilia, not even a little.

But now, if someone saved his life, he wouldn't give up Cecilia to repay that person with marriage.

"Do you think I should tell Ceci about this?" he asked.

"Better not. Women are sensitive. If she tells Vivian and Vivian decides to call off the wedding, what then?"

Mason had no interest in offending the Sinclair family.

Nathaniel thought for a moment before standing up. "Let's call it a day."

"What? So early?"

Pausing briefly, Nathaniel said to Mason, "Tell Ernest that I won't spread this to anyone else. Whether he wants to tell Vivian the truth is up to him." "Understood."

After Nathaniel left, Mason sought out Ernest and relayed everything to him.

Ernest lit a cigarette and said, "Next time, don't dig into my life. Otherwise, I'll dig up all your secrets too."

Mason choked.

"Don't worry, feel free to investigate me."
