Chapter 955_When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 955 From Calvin

 Everyone finally understood why the gifts were all so expensive and of high quality.

 All Cecilia could do was muster a forced smile under everyone’s envious gazes.

 The entire office buzzed with excitement.

 When Nichs returned to his office, he, too, noticed the coffee and snacks ced on his desk.

 He asked, puzzled, “Who put these here?”

 Jocelyn responded, “I overheard the others‘ conversation earlier. It seems like Mr. Nathaniel delivered these. Each department received gifts.”

 Nichs‘ expression was inscrutable when he heard it was from Nathaniel.

 “I don’t really fancy these. You can have them,” he said.This text is ? N?velDrama/.Org.

 Jocelyn responded, “I have some, too. I can’t eat anymore.”

 Then give it to someone else. If no one wants it, just toss it in the trash,” Nichs said indifferently.

 Jocelyn, understanding his intentions, nodded. “All right.”

 She brought the snacks and coffee out and gave them to the cleaningdy.

 The cleaningdy couldn’t hide her excitement. “Thank you, thank you.”

 “You’re wee.” Jocelyn’s expression softened when she faced the cleaningdy.

 Cecilia happened to witness this scene upon stepping out of her office to head to the restroom.

 Jocelyn dressed in professional attire every day, radiating an air of stern authority. To those around her, she seemed like a relentless work machine, detached from any human emotion. Everyone disliked and was scared of her.

 But now, Cecilia realized that she must be a kind girl at heart.

 Jocelyn turned and met Cecilia’s gaze. Worried that Cecilia might misunderstand, she exined, “Mr. Rainsworth can’t have sweets, so he asked me to give them to others who don’t have any. I’ve already finished my share. Thank you.”

 Upon hearing this, Cecilia quickly shook her head. “You’re wee.”

 With that, she went to the restroom, where she called Calvin.

 The call connected quickly.

 Before Cecilia could say a word, Calvin asked. “Did you receive the flowers, Ceci?”

 It’s really you?” Cecilia was surprised. “How did you know I work at Orion Corporation?”

 “Oh, it’s not hard. I just had to ask around,” Calvin responded..

 Cecilia didn’t give it much thought and replied, “Thank you, but you didn’t have to do this. I’ve never bought you any gifts before.”

 Plus, it wasn’t really appropriate for a man to give flowers to a woman, as it could easily lead to misunderstandings.

 Instead of bluntly saying that, Cecilia beat around the bush. “My colleagues thought it was Nathaniel.”

 Calvin, smart as ever, naturally understood the hidden implications in Cecilia’s words.

 He paused for a moment before saying, “Sorry for letting them misunderstand. I’ll send you some snacks next time.”

 “No need-”

 Calvin interrupted her, “Don’t say that. I’m abroad right now with a lot of matters to attend to, so I can’te back to see you. We can’t be out of touch, or our friendship would only fade over time.”

 Cecilia felt rather guilty upon hearing that.

 She had been incredibly busy ever since she returned to Tud and hadn’t even found the time to reach out to Calvin.

 “How’s your injury now?” asked Cecilia.

 “It’s recovering fine.”

 “Good.” Cecilia didn’t know what else to say.

 “Isn’t it your working hours now?” Calvin broke the silence. “Go ahead and focus on your work first. We can talk on the phone when you’re free.”

 “All right.”

 Only then did Cecilia hang up and step outside.

 When she returned to her office, she was unaware that someone had been secretly eavesdropping from the neighboring cubicle.

 Jessica emerged from the cubicle next to hers. “I knew it! I knew Nathaniel wouldn’t send you gifts. Turns out it was from another man! How dare you lie to me!”
