When Her Death Couldn't Break Him novel Chapter 1440

Chapter 1440 The Steadfast Jocelyn 

Jocelyn maintained her stance. “I truly don’t know who it is.” 

“Fine.” Cassandra abruptly stood up, her face brimming with arrogance. “Let me warn you, if 1 find out that you know something, you’re as good as dead.” 

After leaving the threat, Cassandra quickly walked 

away 

Jocelyn remained seated, hesitating for a long while. Eventually, she decided to tell Nicholas about Cassandra seeking her out. 

Upon seeing the text message sent by Jocelyn, Nicholas couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief. 

Cassandra almost found out. Thankfully Jocelyn doesn’t know who it is. 

Nicholas: Jocelyn, thank you. If something like this happens again, let me know right away. 

Jocelyn stared at the message from Nicholas, feeling inexplicably uneasy. 

From the looks of it, Mr. Nicholas is seeing someone else. 

She couldn’t help but sigh, standing up and walking out. 

Outside, the snow had started to fall without her realizing it. 

Jocelyn stepped into the heavy snow, her silhouette emanating a sense of loneliness. 

A few days ago, she received a phone call from her mother, urging her to come home for a blind date. 

“You’re not getting any younger; your career is mediocre; and yet you’re still unwilling to get married? What’s the reason behind all this? Don’t tell me you’re not into men? You must come home and find someone to marry. Otherwise, how can I face your late father? If you don’t agree to my proposal, I might as well kill myself now rather than watch you end up alone in your old age.” 

Jocelyn pondered over the words her mother had spoken, and once again dialed Nicholas‘ number. 

“Mr. Nicholas.” 

“What’s the matter?” 

“My mom asked me to come home for a while, so I’d like to take leave,” said Jocelyn. 

Without a moment’s hesitation, Nicholas agreed, “Alright.” 

Before hanging up, he couldn’t help but ask, “Did something happen at home?” 

After a moment of hesitation, Jocelyn didn’t tell the truth. 

“It’s nothing. It’s just that my mom misses me and wants me to come home for the holidays.” 

Ever since Jocelyn started taking care of Nicholas, she seldom went home. 

She hadn’t gone home for the New Year celebrations that year too.

Upon hearing these words, Nicholas couldn’t help but feel a pang of guilt. “Alright,” he responded, “Safe travels. Spend more time with your mother.” 

“Okay.” 

Jocelyn gave a nod before ending the call. 

Soon, she noticed a million transferred into her account. 

The accompanying inessage from Nicholas read: This money is for you, transferred from my personal account. Go back to your hometown and celebrate the New Year with your family. If you need anything, just let me know. 

Jocelyn was fixated on the screen, unable to tear her gaze away for a long time.
