Chapter 754 Are You Blind.


    “How much did you drink?” Cecilia frowned.


    Nathaniel didn’t respond. He fiddled with his tic, his slender fingers pulling at the knot. “Aren’t you supposed to bring me home?”


    Cecilia was taken aback.


    She thought he asked her to stay behind to confront her.


    With a hint of reluctance, she extended her hand, gripping his wrist. “Let’s go.”


    Nathaniel rose to his feet, no longer making a fuss, and followed her out.


    On their way out, they drew many patrons‘ attention.


    “Who’s this? He’s quite handsome.”


    “Is he the new male model? He has such a great figure.


    A few women discussed quietly.


    “But that woman he’s with doesn’t seem wealthy. She’s pretty, though.”


    One of the women instantly recognized Cecilia and Nathaniel.


    It was none other than Yvette, Ste’s best friend. Tightening her grip on her wine ss, she fixed her gaze on the pair.


    Her friend teased, “Yvie, you’re getting married now–so stoppeting with us for all the handsome guys.”


    High society wasn’t only popted by frivolous scions but also by wealthy heiresses who had inherited fortunes that most people could only dream of umting in several lifetimes. Naturally, they weren’t satisfied with the ordinary path of finding a boyfriend and getting married. One of Yvette’s fair–weather friends sauntered over toward Nathaniel and Cecilia.N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner.


    “Hey, handsome!” she called out.


    In high society, most people were familiar with Nathaniel. However, due to the dim lighting on the first floor of the club and the fact that they had never seen him in person before, they didn’t immediately recognize him.


    The woman patted Nathaniel’s shoulder.


    Nathaniel paused in his tracks, clearly in a bad mood. “Get lost.”


    Cecilia stopped, turning to look at the woman.


    The woman, momentarily taken aback by Nathaniel’s demeanor, wore an awkward expression.


    but quicklyposed herself. She studied Cecilia before sneering, “H. Haven’t you noticed therge scar on thisdy’s face?”


    ne, are you blind?


    Cecilia wasn’t mad, but she knew for sure that Nathaniel would be upset because he was truly blind.


    “This ce is so noisy,” Nathaniel said in a deep voice.


    The woman was about to say something else when Yvette swiftly stepped forward, grabbing her.


    “What’s wrong, Yvie?” the woman asked.


    Only then did Cecilia notice Yvette’s presence.


    Yvette, knowing how to read the room, was aware the woman did not match up to the Rainsworth family’s standards, so she chided, “Shut up.”


    Cecilia let the matter slide and continued leading Nathaniel away.


    As soon as they stepped out of the club, Yvette immediately turned to her friend and said, “Do you know who that was? Nathaniel!”


    Her friend was incredulous. “What?”


    “Let’s hope he doesn’t remember you, Yvette said, picking up her bag and heading out the door, eager to step away from the situation.


    Although she detested Cecilia, she was self–aware and fearful that she might get caught in the crossfire if Nathaniel decided to retaliate.


    She was right to worry.


    The following morning, a news story made it to the trending list.


    The heiress of Loerger Corporation, after getting intoxicated, was found unconscious by someone whoter exploited her vulnerability. Moreover, due to that pervert’s fetish, her right hand was severed.


    When Cecilia turned on the television and saw the news, she couldn’t help saying to Nathaniel, who was making his way downstairs. “Something happened to that woman fromst night.”


    “Oh.” Nathaniel’s expression remained unchanged. “She should consider herself lucky.”


    Cecilia was in disbelief. “It was really you?”


    Nathaniel did not deny it.


    Cecilia was bewildered. I thought he neverys his hand on women. I should be the one considering myself lucky…
