Chapter 755 Eric Is Back
Cecilia switched through several channels when, all of a sudden, a familiar face popped up on the television screen. To her surprise, it was Eric.
He now had a sun–kissed complexion, his smile brighter than ever as he engaged in charitable work with a group of Alendor children.
Given Nathaniel’s illness, Eric faced little to no restrictions, living his life carefreely.
At that time, he was on a plane, secretly returning to Tudela.
As soon as he got off the plane and arrived at the airport, he avoided the crowd and immediately reached out to Cecilia.
“What are you up to, Ms. Ceci?” Once the call connected, he spoke in a playful tone.
Since Cecilia was a composer and his guide who was a few years older than him, he would occasionally address her respectfully.
Cecilia, still watching the news about him, was surprised to receive a call from him.
“I just happened to see the video of you doing charity work,” Cecilia replied.
Eric asked, “You’ve been watching my videos? Have you been missing me?”
“Cut it out. How are you doing?” Cecilia casually asked.
Eric smirked. “I’m doing fine, but it’s boring, so I sneaked back home when the higher–ups weren’t paying attention.”
“You’re back?”
“Yeah, I just arrived at the airport. Are you coming to pick me up?”
Cecilia sighed. “I’m sorry. Things have been a bit busy at home recently.”
“All right then.” Eric sounded disappointed.
Right then, his manager silently urged him to hurry up and leave. After all, the airport was crowded. It would be troublesome if any fans recognized him.
“Hey, remember to write a song just for me when you have time. It’s too noisy over here, so I’m going to hang up now.” Reluctantly, Eric hung up the phone.
He then grumbled, “I wasn’t even done talking to her.”
“Do you want the boss to know?” The manager shot back.
It was obvious that the current boss didn’t seem interested in nurturing Eric. Instead, they seemed to be planning to sabotage his career.
However, the upper management of Imminence Corporation seemed to have lorgotten about Eric recently, allowing them to sneak back.
To be honest, even the best conditions in Alendor couldn’t compare to Clusia.
Meanwhile, Cecilia agreed to Eric’s request before ending the call.
Nathaniel sat aside, letting his personal doctor examine his injuries.
Fortunately, the injuries inflicted by Calvin and his gang weren’t severe; they were mostly superficial and had largely healed by now.
While Nathaniel was being examined, he cast his gaze in Cecilia’s direction, curious about who was calling her.
However, since Cecilia didn’t tell him, he didn’t ask.
“Mr. Rainsworth, your wounds have fully healed,” the doctor advised, “However, you should be cautious. Avoid any vigorous activities and maintain a light diet. Most importantly, refrain from drinking alcohol.”
Zachary had instructed the doctor to advise Nathaniel against drinking.
“Okay.” Nathaniel slipped on his unbuttoned shirt.

After the doctor left, Elliot headed off to school, and Cecilia was composing music. He sat alone in the living room, finding the silence overwhelming.
Finally, Mason came to pick him up. Once he got in the car, he instructed, “Clean up the Seabay Villa. I’m moving in there.”
Surprised, Mason asked, “That villa has been empty for a long time. Are you sure you’re okay staying there alone? Besides, you’ve been living with Mrs. Rainsworth for the past year.”
Before the New Year, Nathaniel was so determined to live with Cecilia that he even pretended to still suffer from amnesia and feigned poverty.
“You’ve grown bold after all these years working under me,” Nathaniel said indifferently.
“I’ll have someone arrange it right away,” Mason said sheepishly. Don’t regret it and vent your anger on me after you move there.
