Chapter 781 He Has Changed
The car started, and after about an hour’s drive, they arrived at Daltonia Vi.
Nichs stepped out of the car, and from a distance, he could see Cecilia lying on a lounge chair n the garden, basking in the sunlight. Her exposed hand gleamed white in the sun.
Mr. Rainsworth,” the security guard greeted him without hesitation and opened the gate.
It wasn’t easy for people to distinguish Nichs from Nathaniel, as the two looked identical.
Nichs walked in and headed straight toward Cecilia.
She was sleeping soundly and hadn’t noticed Nichs‘ approach.
He simply stood in front of her without saying a word.
Perhaps because the light was blocked, Cecilia felt less warmth and turned over, casually removing the book covering her face.
Still, there was no light. Groggily, she opened her She looked up and met the man’s deep gaze eyes and found someone standing before her. eyes a
“Nathaniel, why are you back?”
Nichs‘ Adam’s apple moved slightly. “Ceci.”
The tenderness in his voice and the focus in his eyes immediately made Cecilia realize that this wasn’t Nathaniel standing in front of her.
“Nichs, why are you here?”
Embarrassed, she got up from her seat.
“I heard that after Nathaniel returned from abroad, he moved out. I came to ask you what happened.”
Cecilia had always had a good impression of Nichs and didn’t think of him as a bad person.
Still, she didn’t tell him about Nathaniel’s current condition. She only said, “He got a minor injury abroad. The doctor said it’s better for him to recover over there.”This belongs to N?velDrama.Org: ?.
She didn’t mention Nathaniel’s memory issues or that his memories had regressed several years.
“I see. I thought he had another fight with you,” Nichs murmured.
Seeing he wasn’t leaving, Cecilia politely asked, “Would you like to sit for a while?”
“Sure.”
Nichs readily agreed and sat on a nearby bench.
Cecilia sat across from him.
Not long after, the housekeeper brought over some fruit and coffee.
Nichs epted the coffee. “Thank you.”
The housekeeper was taken aback, unable to believe what she’d heard.
When had Mr. Rainsworth ever said thank you?
Nichs ignored her astonished gaze and took a sip of coffee.
After the servant left, the silence between Nichs and Cecilia grew once again.
When did it be so hard to findmon topics between us?
After a long pause, Cecilia finally found a topic. “Is Magnus working for you now?”
“Yes, don’t worry. He’s changed,” Nichs replied.
Hearing this, Cecilia was a little surprised. When Magnus was younger, he had been adorable, but as he grew older, he became spoiled by Pa and started behaving terribly.
“I’m d he’s changed. I appreciate your help.”
Nichs didn’t respond, his gaze lingering on her face.
Ae he took in the scar that marred her once wless skin, his eyes filled with pain. “Does it still hurt?”
Cecilia was confused for a moment, then noticed he was staring at her face. She snapped back to reality.
“It stopped hurting a while ago. It’s already healed.”
Nichs was about to say more when voices came from the entrance.
“Aunt Elena, you’ve got such great taste! The clothes you picked for Eli look amazing. In my next life, I want to be your granddaughter,” Jessica ttered Elena.
Elena was quite pleased.
Jessica suddenly noticed Nichs sitting across from Cecilia. At first, she mistook him for Nathaniel.
“Nathaniel, you’re back?”
Carrying bags of clothes, she rushed over to Nichs.
Her words caused a sh of disgust to appear in Nichs‘ eyes. Before he could say anything. Vivian stopped in her tracks, realizing that the person in front of her wasn’t Nathaniel.
“Yes, it’s been a while, Jessica,” Nichs responded with a gentle smile.
