No one could provide Mason with the answers he sought. He contemplated sending someone to investigate, yet he feared that Lucille would become upset upon finding out.

Meanwhile, after undergoing a thorough medical examination today, Nathaniel’s body was determined to be in perfect condition. However, his memory had not returned.

Zachary had also come over, and he, too, was sighing.

“This is really giving me a headache.”

Nathaniel remained indifferent.

“Nathaniel, don’t you plan on going home yet? Your wife is pregnant, you know,” coaxed Zachary.

Nowadays, Zachary was always looking out for Cecilia’s welfare, and how he wished he could simply kidnap Nathaniel and send him home.

“The money I gave her is more than sufficient for everything she needs during her pregnancy,” Nathaniel replied, his tone indifferent.

After he finished speaking, he turned to Mason and asked, “Did we receive any news from Jessica today?”

It took a while before Mason could regain his composure.

“No. Let me call and ask.”

Mason took out his phone and stepped outside to make a call. When he returned, he informed Nathaniel, “No one answered the call.”

Nathaniel didn’t press on with more questions.

Zachary felt that something was off about the two men today. They both seemed to be lost in their own worlds.

“Mason, you got relationship problems or something?” Zachary couldn’t help but joke.

After collecting himself, Mason shot Zachary a cold look but didn’t respond.

Zachary hadn’t anticipated hitting the nail on the head with such a simple question.

He was somewhat incredulous..

It was truly unexpected, that Mason, a man as straight–laced as they come, could also be troubled by a

Woman.

Zachary felt relieved, thankful that he had long since become indifferent toward women. He was certain he would never end up like those two.

At the top floor of Orion Corporation, Cecilia entered the office alone.

Jessica had not returned to Daltonia Villa that morning probably due to her partying last night.

show in the company. To her surprise, Cecilia had already finished reviewing most of the conference materials the day before.

Moreover, Cecilia had also categorized and documented everything.

Jocelyn’s fondness for her grew even more. She knocked on the door and entered. “Mrs. Rainsworth, Ms. Langston, who’s supposed to accompany Mr. Nicholas to meet with clients today, has called in sick. I was wondering if you might have some time?”

Upon hearing these words, Cecilia looked up at Jocelyn

“Ms. Wright, aren’t you available? It’s not that I’m unwilling, but I feel as though I don’t fully understand some aspects of the company’s operations yet, and I’m afraid of making mistakes,” explained Cecelia.

“I have other work today.” Jocelyn paused for a moment before adding, “Your job is to accompany Mr. Nicholas and play golf with the clients. All you have to do was stand beside him.”

“All right then.”

Later that afternoon, Cecilia followed Nicholas to a vast golf course.

She felt extremely small in the field.

This time, it was Jared from Apogee Corporation who came to play golf with Nicholas.

The man was noticeably portly, a stark contrast to the handsome and tall Nicholas.

“Hmm, Mr. Rainsworth, did you get a new secretary? She looks so familiar,” Jared commented, his gaze roving over Cecilia with a hint of sleaziness.

Feeling uncomfortable under his gaze, Cecilia distanced herself a bit from him.

Nicholas remained noncommittal, lifting his golf club and sinking the ball with a single stroke.

“That was a great stroke, Mr. Rainsworth!”

Jared showered Nicholas with praise the

Jared commented, “Goodness, Mr.

4th, if you’re in need of a

Cretary,

I can arrange a few

attractive ones for you. Having someone like her with such a huge scar on her face is rather detrimental to the company’s image, don’t you think?”

Cecilia already despised the way Jared was always looking at her. Upon hearing his derogatory remarks, she couldn’t help but clench her fists tightly.

Still, because Nicholas wanted to discuss business with him, Cecilia had no choice but to tolerate it.

Just because she could bear it didn’t mean that Nicholas would.
