When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 141 A Deaf Girl

Meanwhile, on the dimly lit top floor of Elite Club, people were dressed in their finest attire.

Quite a number of scions were present.

Nathaniel sat quietly in a corner, pulling out his phone. He saw a message from the bodyguard he had assigned to tail Cecille: We lost her.

No sooner had he left than Cecille went out. Now, she was even missing.

Furrowing his brows, Nathaniel replied: If you can’t find her after an hour, all of you can leave Tudela.

The moment Nathaniel sent his message, the bodyguards immediately started reviewing all the surveillance footage along the streets of Tudela.

Nathaniel tried calling Cecille again.

However, what came through was the cold, impersonal voice of an automated customer service. “The number you have dialed is currently unavailable…”

At that moment, Cecille was still on the phone with Martha, reassuring her not to worry about Elliot and Jonathan. She promised that she would take good care of them.

In the video, Martha, her hair a full crown of white, had worry etched deep in her eyes. “Ceci, if anything happens, you must call and tell me or Calvin. Don’t shoulder it all by yourself.”

Her greatest concern was Cecille’s depression, fearing she might do something foolish again.C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

“Okay. Don’t worry.” Originally, Cecille had more to say to Martha, but upon seeing Sven rushing over, she had to hang up the phone first. “What’s the matter?”

“Nathaniel’s men are looking for you,” Sven responded.

Upon hearing that, Cecille immediately took out her phone and called her driver to pick her up at a specific intersection.

Afterward, she feigned going shopping for clothes, then got into the car.

Before long, Nathaniel’s bodyguard spotted her and promptly snapped a photo to send to Nathaniel.

After seeing the photo, Nathaniel dialed Cecille’s number.

When Cecilia heard the vibration, she saw the incoming call and answered, “Hello.”

“Where are you now?” Nathaniel asked straightforwardly.

Glancing around, Cecille said, “I’m at the shopping plaza, about to head back. Is there something wrong?”

Shopping plaza? “Come to the top floor of Elite Club.” Without giving her a chance to refuse, Nathaniel hung up the phone directly.

The shopping plaza was in close proximity to Elite Club, merely a few hundred meters away.

Subsequently, Cecilia instructed the driver to take a detour.

At the same time, inside Elite Club, Nathaniel’s friends, each embracing a beautiful woman, were having the time of their lives.

“Nathaniel, I’ve got to tell you. There have been a few stunning women around here lately. Moreover, they’re all honor students,” one guy mentioned, trying to win Nathaniel’s favor. He then gave a knowing glance to the manager.

The manager instantly understood the man’s intention. In no time, a stunningly beautiful woman with an innocent look was sent into the room.

This beautiful woman had clearly just started working there, as there was still an air of demureness around her.

Someone whispered to Nathaniel, “She’s still a virgin.”

Under the dim light, the woman’s gaze fell upon Nathaniel. At first glance, his appearance. captivated her.

She walked up shyly and said, “Mr. Rainsworth, I’d like to propose a toast to you.”

Nathaniel simply gazed at her, not taking a sip.

Compared to the woman, he found Cecilia more attractive because Cecilia didn’t have that hint of pettiness.

His indifferent actions left the others baffled.

One of them joked, “Nathaniel, are you no longer interested in other women because the deaf girl is back?”

Zachary didn’t show up that day, but Nathaniel’s friends all accepted Zachary’s nickname for Cecille.

Upon hearing Nathaniel’s friend’s remark, the honor student became somewhat curious. “The deaf girl?”

Nathaniel grimaced, but his friend by his side didn’t notice. The friend explained, “She’s Mr. Rainsworth’s ex–wife.”

The honor student couldn’t help but be taken aback. How could a man as exceptional as Nathaniel have a deaf ex–wife?

She couldn’t help but feel sympathy for Nathaniel, and, at the same time, she found a newfound confidence in herself. Regardless, I should be way superior to a deaf girl, right?

“Mr. Rainsworth, my name is Nancy. If you’re unwilling to drink this glass of wine, I’ll do it ont your behalf.”

With that, Nancy picked up the wine glass and drained it in one gulp. I’ll make this man mine today.
