When Her Death Couldn't Break Him novel Chapter 1338

Chapter 1338 Why Did You Marry Me 

“Ah…” Zachary sighed in relief. From his many years of knowing Nathaniel, he knew that sometimes Nathaniel was serious. 

However, this time, it was indeed no more than a joke. 

Nathaniel walked over. “I appreciate what you’ve done today.” 

Zachary was somewhat taken aback. “Nathaniel, you aren’t mentally preparing me for my punishment later, are you?” 

Nathaniel rolled his eyes at him. I can’t believe how paranoid he is. 

Ignoring Zachary, Nathaniel took Cecilia to find Jonathan. 

Vivian hadn’t expected Zachary to be so intimidated by Nathaniel. She couldn’t help but express her surprise. “So, there is someone who can put you in your place, even though you always act so high and mighty in front of me.” 

Zachary furrowed his brows. “Have you forgotten the promise you made to me before?” 

Vivian suddenly remembered how she had used Zachary to drive Ernest away previously. Seeing that things were going well, she promptly apologized, “Sorry, I just forgot. My apologies.” 

Only then was Zachary satisfied. 

Not far away, Cassandra watched as Zachary and Vivian bickered. She then saw Cecilia and her family laughing harmoniously. Finally, she turned to look at Nicholas, who wore an indifferent expression on his face. 

The two of them stood together, resembling complete strangers more than a married couple. 

“Nicholas.” 

“What is it?” Nicholas asked, looking down at her. 

“The event is pretty much over. Let’s head back.” 

Cassandra initially planned to take advantage of the day’s events to bond with Nicholas. However, he always declined such seemingly ordinary activities, citing poor health. 

“Alright.” 

Nicholas had long been wanting to leave. 

Cassandra followed closely behind him, and the two of them got into the car, one after the other: 

“Nicholas…” 

Just as Cassandra was about to say something, Nicholas phone rang. 

Not long after he took it, he told Cassandra, “You should go back first. There’s a minor issue at the office that I need to attend to.”

Chapter 1338 Why Did You Marry Me 

“What’s the matter? I’ll go with you.” 

“No need.” 

48 Pearls. 

Nicholas didn’t give Cassandra a choice. After getting out of the car, he promptly hailed another one and hopped in. 

When Cassandra stepped out, he had already left. 

She stood there, alone, staring blankly at the departing vehicle. Her heart was brimming with a deep sense of indignance. 

“Nicholas, if you don’t love me, why did you marry me?” Cassandra murmured to herself, feeling a certain heaviness in her heart. 

She had always been self–centered, but this was the first time she cared so much about someone else. 

Behind her, the sounds of cheerful chatter from Cecilia’s family filled the air. Cassandra glanced back at the lively group, her eyes brimming with envy. 

She climbed back into the car and commanded, “Drive” 

“Understood.” 

Back at Rainsworth Manor, Cassandra was eagerly awaiting Nicholas‘ return, giving him a call.
