NovelEnglishChapter 435 Checking Out Nicholas
“Don’t worry, my baby won't be stepping foot into the Rainsworth Manor at all. If you would persuade Nathaniel
to hasten our divorce, I'd be truly grateful,” Cecilia replied with a smile.
Elena gritted her teeth in anger.
“Don’t worry! Once Nathaniel regains his memory, he will surely divorce you without needing my persuasion!”
At first, Elena had intended to probe into the matter of Jonathan, but now she had lost interest.
She dropped what she was doing and stormed off in a huff.
Seeing Elena leave with such a troubled expression after her encounter with Cecilia, Cassandra approached,
feigning concern as she asked, “Are you alright?”
She had two motives for coming. First, she wanted to learn about her future mother-in-law from Cecilia. Second,
she wanted to build a warm and caring image of herself.
“I'm fine.”

Cassandra was disappointed that Cecilia did not elaborate further.
Cassandra tried again. “Is Mdm. Elena difficult to get along with?”
“I can’t really answer that question,” Cecilia replied casually.
Cassandra had not expected such an icy reception from her. She decided to drop her nice girl persona. “Come
on, Cecilia! I'll be marrying Nicholas. From then on, he will be in charge of the Rainsworth family. | believe you
should showmore respect, don’t you think?”
Cecilia paused in her task and turned to face Cassandra, saying, “I really don’t know much about Mdm. Elena's
affairs. You're about to marry Nicholas. If there's something you want to know, | suggest you ask him directly.”
Cassandra’s expression twisted.
She had indeed questioned Nicholas. However, despite his outward gentleness to her, he refused to let her into
his heart.
Even now, she could not comprehend why Nicholas had agreed to their engagement.
Unable to garner any information from Cecilia, Cassandra set out in search of Nicholas.
Before long, she caught sight of Nicholas.
With his tall stature, he stood out in the crowd. He held a glass of wine in his hand, and his was fixed in a certain
direction.
Cassandra followed his gaze. He was watching Cecilia arranging flowers.
A troubling thought invaded up in her mind.
However, as Nicholas pulled his eyes away, she threw the thought out of her head.
Cecilia was born with a hearing impairment, and she’s a married woman! How could Nicholas possibly be
attracted to her?

“Ms. Smith, could you poura glass of water?” requested a lady.
Back then, Cecilia would have already gone to fetch the water, but now, she glanced at the lady indifferently and
replied, “Get it yourself.”
The lady was taken aback. She never expected a person who used to follow her commands so obediently to talk
back to her now.
She did not want to make a fuss about the situation, so she simply had the servants bring her a glass.
There were those who were oblivious to the mood of the moment. Nathaniel’s cousin, Adrian, had been
observing Cecilia for quite stime. After having a few drinks and waiting for his wife, Miranda, to leave, he
approached Cecilia. He was slightly tipsy.
“Cecilia, you must have been very lonely these few years, haven't you?”
Cecilia caught a strong whiff of alcohol on him and, not wanting to entertain him, she moved. away from him.
Adrian, however, was relentless in his pursuit. “You're a beautiful woman. My cousin, Nathaniel, must have been
blind to let a stunning woman like you slip through his fingers.”
He lowered his voice and said suggestively, “If you're willing to bed me, | promise to cherish you «
