When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 1189 The Disappearance.

As a woman herself, Cassandra could tell that Jocelyn had feelings for Nicholas.

The reason she didn’t expose Jocelyn was simply because the latter was rather plain looking. More importantly, Jocelyn hardly dressed up, was devoid of any feminine charm, and didn’t have a noteworthy family background.

This woman is simply not worthy of being my rival, and Nicholas would certainly not fall for her.

Upon hearing this, Jocelyn felt compelled to explain to Cassandra, “It’s related to work.”

“Regarding work matters, I should definitely be kept in the loop. After all, the Jamieson family is Orion Corporation partner,” Cassandra insisted.

As she spoke, she searched for Queenie, hoping to have the latter deal with this lady who dared to disrupt her wedding:

Jocelyn hadn’t anticipated Cassandra to be so unreasonable; she could only turn her gaze toward Nicholas.

“Mr. Nicholas.”

At that moment, all eyes in the vicinity were drawn in this direction, the onlookers, oblivious to the unfolding situation, watched with curiosity.

Nicholas knew that Jocelyn was not one to blur the lines between personal and professional matters. It was certain that something had happened which she couldn’t let others know about.

“Cassandra, I’ll be back shortly,” he said.

The fact that Nicholas wanted to leave in front of so many people upset Cassandra. She quickly latched onto his arm.

“No, you can’t go anywhere. We have to toast the elders soon. If you leave and the other guests arrive, what am I supposed to do on my own?”

Cassandra hadn’t quite grasped the gravity of the situation yet. All she could think of was how it would look if she let Nicholas. and Jocelyn walk away now. She would be utterly humiliated.

Queenie had also noticed the commotion and came over

“What’s going on?”

Cassandra immediately complained, “I have no idea what’s going on with Nicholas‘ assistant. She insisted on pulling Nicholas aside to talk and wouldn’t let me in on it. On top of that, it’s getting late. We still have to toast the elders soon. It would be rude if it was delayed.”

Upon hearing her words, Queenie felt that she had a point.

She glared at Jocelyn. “What could possibly be more important than a wedding? Once the ceremony is over, you can continue with work”

Queenie had already spoken, so Jocelyn didn’t want to put Nicholas in a difficult position. She nodded in agreement. “Alright.”Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

She figured it probably wouldn’t matter in the grand scheme of things.

Before Nathaniel arrived, Nicholas and Cassandra toasted the elders.

The wedding banquet was filled with joy and happiness

Meanwhile, Liam had arrived at Nathaniel’s room, but curiously enough, the latter was nowhere to be found.

He was completely flustered.

“Where did he go?”

The housekeepers shook their heads one after another, speculating, “Could he have gone out?”

“Is this how you guys take care of Mr. Nathaniel?” Liam reprimanded.

The housekeepers replied indignantly. “Everyone’s been busy preparing for Mr. Nicholas‘ wedding these past few days. Moreover, since Mr. Nathaniel returned, he’s been very well–behaved, keeping to himself and not going anywhere, so we didn’t pay him much attention.”

“Still making excuses, are you? Hurry up and find him!”

“Understood

The housekeepers tending to Nathaniel here were scolded and sent away, all of them dispersed in search of him.

At the wedding, most of the elders had already been toasted, all that was left was for Nathaniel to take his r

When Liam went over, he was wiping sweat off his brow. In a hushed tone, he informed Niel, “Old Mr. K Nathaniel’s courtyard was left open today. He has run off and everyone is still searching for him.”

The color drained from Niel’s face. To avoid delaying the ceremony, he instructed Nicholas and his party to proceed with the wedding.
