Chapter 949 Bullying Jessica

 Inside thepany, everyone was buzzing with discussions about how Cecilia managed to secure the contract.

 Nichs had also summoned Cecilia to his office, inquiring about how she managed to do it.

 Cecilia responded truthfully, “I happened to know a friend of Ms. Hardy. Thanks to that friend, I got acquainted with Ms. Hardy.”

 “So that’s how it is.” Nichs nced outside, noticing the darkening sky. “It’s gettingte, let’s call it a day. I’ll drive you home.”

 “No need.” Cecilia immediately declined.

 “Didn’t the driver drop you off today?” Nichs asked.

 He had someone follow Cecilia, knowing that Cecilia had taken a taxi to Hardy Group that day.

 Embarrassed, Cecilia replied, “Nathaniel has offered to drive me home from now on.”

 Nichs‘ expression momentarily stiffened, but he quickly regained hisposure.

 “I see. You should finish work early then, don’t keep Nathaniel waiting too long.”

 “Mhm.” Cecilia nodded, then stepped out of the office.

 After she left, Nichs got up. It was at this moment that Cassandra’s call came through.

 “Nichs, have you finished work yet? I’m outside your office building.This text is ? N?velDrama/.Org.

 Nichs watched through the ss door as Cecilia walked away. “Hmm, work’s over, I’ll be right down.”

 “All right.” A blissful smile spread across Cassandra’s face.

 Outside Rainsworth Group, a Rolls–Royce sat quietly parked. Inside, Nathaniel waited patiently for Cecilia to arri

 “Why is she getting off work sote today?”

 Mason replied. “The bodyguard mentioned that Mrs. Rainsworth visited Hardy Group today to sign a contract, which caused the dy.”

 Because Cecilia had been kidnapped in the past, she now had a personal bodyguard tailing her at at discreet distance wherever she went, just in case.

 Nathaniel didn’t ask any further questions and continued to wait.

 It wasn’t long before Cecilia emerged, apanied by Jessica.

 Jessica truly had no shame. She hurried after Cecilia, and the moment she spotted Nathaniel’s car, she quickened her pace, even overtaking Cecilia. For someone with a supposedly injured leg, she didn’t seem to be in pain at all.

 Cecilia didn’t pay her much attention, she simply continued at her leisurely pace.

 “Nathaniel Jessica’s face was filled with excitement.

 Nathaniel furrowed his brows. Hmm.

 Just as Jessica was about to get into the car, Mason spoke up. “Ms. Quill, we are here to pick up Mrs. Rainsworth

 The underlying implication was clear, even though it was left unsaid,

 Jessica stiffened. “I didn’t use any perfume, and I even took a bath, changed my clothes. There’s not a trace of perfume on me.”

 She thought that Nathaniel was repulsed by the scent she wore.

 Mason genuinely felt that she couldn’tprehend humannguage.

 “Ms. Quill, we’re only here to pick up Mrs. Rainsworth, you should hail a cab for yourself.” He repeated.

 Jessica found it hard to believe.

 Cecilia had also arrived.

 Jessica effectively blocked her way into the car, looking pitifully innocent. “We’re heading the same way, aren’t we? It’s not like the car is short on–seats.

 Jessica’s persistent demeanor caught the attention of some to look over.

 Cassandra, who was waiting for Nichs in the car, also noticed them. “Isn’t that Jessica and Cecilia?”

 Cassandra stepped out of the car, curious to see what was going on.

 As she approached, she noticed the tears rolling down Jessica’s cheeks.

 “Nathaniel, Cecilia, I truly yearn to be a part of your big family. I don’t want to be alone all the time. This morning, when I came to thepany by myself, I felt particrly lonely.”

 Blocked by Jessica, Cecilia felt an intense urge to retch as she heard her words.

 Since Jessica was Nathaniel’s cousin, she simply waited for Nathaniel to speak up.

 Before Nathaniel could speak, Cassandra had made her way over.

 “Cecilia, it’s not quite right of you to bully a young girl, is it?”
