When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 1020 Visiting Orion Corporation.

“Dad, give the money to Paula, I have other matters to attend to. I can’t manage the property with you anymore.” Cassandra had no time to deal with Ralph’s assets at the moment.

Ralph was puzzled. “What’s happened?”

“Cecilia and Nathaniel have divorced,” Cassandra responded. “I’m worried that Nicholas might fall for her charms.”

Nicholas, being such an exceptional man, naturally attracted many admirers. Upon hearing this, Ralph turned to Cassandra and said, “You should hurry back.

“Okay.”

Cassandra climbed into the car, hesitated for a moment, but ultimately instructed the driver to head toward Orion Corporation.

When she went to Orion Corporation the previous time, she ended up upsetting Nicholas. Hence, he didn’t allow her to go there anymore.

This time, to avoid angering Nicholas, Cassandra came under the guise of her mother, Queenie.

She made her way to the CEO’s office and rounded the top floor, but she didn’t spot Cecilia. She asked, “Where is Cecilia?”

“Ms. Smith has moved to the sales department,” the secretary responded.

After hearing this, Cassandra breathed a sigh of relief. She knocked on the door of the CEO’s office.

“Come in.” The familiar voice echoed from within.C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

Only then did Cassandra push the door open.

Nicholas was seated at his office desk when he looked up to see Cassandra, who had hastily arrived, looking impeccably dressed. He couldn’t help but frown. “Didn’t I tell you before? If there’s something you. need to discuss, do it at home. Why are you here at the company again?”

“Nicholas, please don’t be upset. My mom sent me here.” Cassandra showed Nicholas the chat history on her phone. “Remember the project that the Jamieson and Rainsworth families collaborated on last time? My mom wants me to represent Jamieson Group and discuss cooperation here.”

Those chat logs were hastily arranged between Cassandra and Queenie prior to Cassandra’s arrival.

In an effort to prevent Nicholas and Cecilia from spending time together in private, Cassandra intended to visit Orion Corporation as a business partner to discuss work, and in the process, she planned to put Cecilia in her place.

Upon hearing her words, Nicholas couldn’t find any faults.

“You’re pregnant now, so you should still be careful with your health.”

“It’s no big deal,” Cassandra smiled sweetly. “Isn’t Cecilia still working, even though she’s in her maternity period? She’s in the sales department, which is always bustling. If a pregnant woman like her can handle it,

Nicholas couldn’t seem to see through her ulterior motives, but he was in dire need of collaborating with the Jamieson family at the moment.

He also needed Queenie’s help to maintain his position as the CEO of Rainsworth Group.

“All right, then. If you need anything, just look for Jocelyn.”

“All right,” Cassandra agreed without hesitation. She strutted out, her high heels clicking against the floor, radiating an air of haughtiness.

She scanned the room, her gaze landing on an attractive secretary. She approached the secretary and said, “Could you get me a glass of water, please?”

Knowing that she was Nicholas‘ fiancée, the secretary didn’t hesitate to fetch water for her.

When the water was brought over, Cassandra took it. However, she deliberately loosened her grip and let the glass of water fall to the ground.

“What’s with you? Did you intentionally set out to embarrass me?”

The secretary quickly panicked. “No… I clearly handed it to you. It was you who…”

Seeing the situation, Jocelyn, from not too far away, started walking in this direction.

“Ms. Evans, what’s wrong?” asked Jocelyn.

Cassandra crossed her arms over her chest and said, “If your subordinate can’t even handle the simple task of serving water, you should fire her.”

A single sentence left everyone in the secretary’s office gasping in shock.

Jocelyn was well aware that Nicholas needed Cassandra.

Without uttering another word, she turned to her secretary and said, “You don’t need to come in tomorrow. Go to the finance department now and settle your wages.”

Cassandra’s actions at that moment were actually meant for Jocelyn to observe. Once the secretary left, she lowered her voice to warn Jocelyn, “Ms. Wright, I’m aware that you took care of Nicholas when he fell ill overseas in the past. However, you must understand something. You are just a helper, while I am the one who is to be Nicholas‘ future wife.”
