When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him Novel

Chapter 897 Do You Really Want To Marry Him

“Nathaniel has lost his memory before; the illness might not have completely healed,” Nicholas said. He was standing on the top floor of Royale Club as he talked to Jessica.

“Amnesia?”

Jessica was surprised. “No wonder he couldn’t recognize me again today.”

“Do you really want to marry him?” Nicholas suddenly changed the topic.

Jessica didn’t hesitate. “Yes, I’ve liked him since I was a child.”

Nathaniel had always been the standout figure, whether in the Rainsworth family or the outside world.

Unfortunately, his luck had run out, and now he was blind.

However, it was precisely this misfortune that made Jessica feel she was a match for him.

“Then you should make the most of this time. If he loses his memory again and forgets everything..” Nicholas‘ voice trailed off, leaving the rest unsaid.

Jessica understood his implication but was still worried. “I went so far as to fake a car accident to stay in

Tudela. I’m afraid they still won’t keep me.”

“It seems you’re not ruthless enough,” Nicholas murmured.

Jessica was about to say more when the call ended.

Ethan approached. “Why? Did the prominent young lady of the Evans family check in on you?”

Nicholas merely smiled faintly, acknowledging the point.

A hint of envy subtly crept onto Ethan’s usually menacing face.

“This woman is definitely someone not to be offended. Her mother, Queenie, is a formidable character. Even my grandfather had to give her some respect when he was alive.”

Ethan believed Nicholas‘ return and continued involvement in Orion Corporation were closely related to his future mother–in–law, Queenie.

Nicholas took a sip from the glass of wine served by a waiter.

“Has the owner of Imminence Corporation been identified?”

Ethan finished his drink and said, “No, it seems to be a foreigner.”

After saying that, Ethan then asked, “By the way, what’s Nathaniel doing now?”

“What can a blind man do?” Nicholas dismissed Nathaniel. “My mother has him back at the company as a manager. That should be his lot in life.”

Perhaps in front of the scheming Ethan, Nicholas was less gentle and refined than usual.

However, concerned that Nicholas might protect his brother, Ethan tentatively asked, “Aren’t you worried Nathaniel might be resentful and try to come back to take your position?”

Nicholas didn’t respond.

Ethan continued, “If you don’t mind, I could help you deal with him to eliminate future threats.”

Nicholas turned to look at Ethan. A cold smirk tinged with a hint of mockery played on his lips.

“Do as you please, but don’t involve me in this matter

After saying that, Nicholas threw his wine glass into the trash can and left.

It wasn’t that Nicholas looked down on Ethan. He just thought Ethan’s plan to deal with Nathaniel was unrealistic.

Once Nicholas left, Ethan immediately called Francis. “It’s time for revenge.”

The humiliation Nathaniel had inflicted on him would be repaid a thousandfold.

Francis looked worried. “Even though Nathaniel is blind now, his subordinates…”

“It’s just Mason and a few lackeys, right?” Ethan scoffed. “The bodyguards around him are nothing to worry about.”

Feeling emboldened, Francis agreed. “Okay. But I think the best way to handle him is to target his weak points.”

“You mean Cecilia and those two children?” Ethan asked.

Francis nodded. “Primarily Cecilia. One child is protected by the Sinclair family, while the other has a bodyguard by his side at all times.”

This information came from Stella.
