Chapter 527 Be An Ordinary Person


    In Tud, snow fell thick and heavy.


    After St. Patrick’s Day, the snow had be even thicker.


    In a rented ce, Ste looked out at the dazzling city lights with a sense of deep dissatisfaction.


    She could have been dazzling in the crowd herself, but it was all Cecilia’s fault.


    Seeing that her news had been removed from trending searches, she clenched her phone tightly.


    “I’ve worked so hard to get here. Am I going to be an ordinary person again like before?”


    At that moment, a call came in. Seeing it was Nichs, she immediately grew nervous.


    “Mr. Nichs.”


    “I’ve given you the photos and the trending search. When are you nning to talk to Ceci?” Nichs asked impatiently.


    “Mr. Nichs, it’s not that I don’t want to find Cecilia. I’m just scared.”


    “Scared of what?”


    “I’ve seen Zachary frequently visiting Nathaniel. I’m afraid if Zachary sees me…”


    In truth, Ste wanted safety and a strong backer.


    Nichs’s n to make her hide in a corner of the city and pretend to be dead had be -unbearable.


    At first, she didn’t understand why Nichs wanted her to sabotage Cecilia and Nathaniel.


    Now she knew–it was because Nichs had feelings for Cecilia.


    Since that was the case, she decided to make full use of Nichs.


    Nichs wasn’t naive. He understood her intention.


    “Don’t worry. With me around, even if Zachary sees you, he won’t dare to do anything to you.”


    “Okay then, I’ll start nning tomorrow.”


    “Good.”


    Nichs ended the phone call.Content ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Sitting in his office, he was about to call Jocelyn to bring him a cup of hot water when he remembered he had given her a few days off.


    He had to call the secretary to bring him water instead.


    Before long. a cup of hot water was set before Nichs. The hand holding the cup boasted a beautifully manicured set of nails.


    Nichs looked up and saw Cassandra’s pretty face. “Why are you here?”


    “Mdm. Elena told me you are at the office, so I came by to keep youpany,” Cassandra replied.


    Nichs didn’t drink the water, cing the cup aside. “No need, you should go rest.”


    He looked up at Cassandra again. his words gentle but piercing. “Your health still hasn’t fully recovered, has it?”


    Cassandra froze.


    Recalling the scenes of being vited by those men, she clenched her hands and trembled.


    “Nichs. I…”


    “Go rest,” Nichs said gently again.


    Although he was so gentle. Cassandra felt inexplicably frightened and couldn’t refuse. “Okay.”


    Leaving the office, Cassandra went to the restroom, feeling a sense of unprecedented defeat.


    She turned on the faucet and washed her hands and neck with cold water, hoping it might make her feel a bit better.


    It wasn’t her first time, but being sexually assaulted by so many men made it particrly distressing.


    At that moment, a female office worker emerged from the restroom, noticing her vigorously scrubbing her hands and neck to the point where her skin was nearly raw.


    “Are you okay?” the employee asked kindly.


    Cassandra looked up at her and snapped, “Get lost.”


    The female employee was so frightened that she left immediately.


    Once the woman was gone, Cassandra took a photo of the purplish–red marks on her hands and sent it to her mother, Queenie.


    Cassandra: Mom, I hate myself so much. If I weren’t so useless. Cecilia wouldn’t have seduced Nichs.


    Queenie was at the Tud Orphanage, handling some private matters.


    Upon receiving the message, she furrowed her brow slightly and politely excused herself to the restroom.


    “Cassandra, I have already sent someone to investigate Cecilia. The studio you mentioned is just a shell, not a realpany. Don’t do anything foolish. I only have you as my daughter. If you want Nichs, I’ll make sure he likes you and won’t touch Cecilia. When I have time, I’ll definitely teach Cecilia a lesson!”
