Nathaniel quickly picked up the phone. “Mom, what’s wrong?”

“Nicholas has returned, but something about him seems off,” Elena said. “If you have the time, could you help me keep an eye on him?” 

After hearing it, Nathaniel didn’t reveal the actual situation to Elena. 

“All right, understood.” 

After hanging up the phone, he watched as everyone relaxed in the living room with Cecilia, showing no signs of preparing to leave. 

“Do you all plan on staying here today?” Nathaniel couldn’t help but ask, his–tone somewhat icy. 

If one were adept at reading the room, they would’ve known it was time to leave. However, these guys were completely clueless. They even chimed in unison, “Yes, we’ve decided. Later, we’ll ask the housekeeper to bring down the quilts. We’re planning to sleep together in the living room.” 

Looking at the lively scene, Cecilia didn’t turn them down either. 

Nathaniel’s mood had taken a turn for the worse. After finally managing to find Cecilia and bring her back, the pair surprisingly had no time to be alone. 

He wanted to dismiss them, yet he noticed that Cecilia was engaging in lively conversations and laughter with these people, even discussing past events. 

Nathaniel thought that perhaps this way, Cecilia’s memories would recover faster, so he didn’t make them leave anymore. 

Orion Corporation. 

When Nicholas arrived at the office, he found Jocelyn fast asleep on the desk. 

He stepped forward and gently roused her. 

“How did you fall asleep here?” 

Jocelyn opened her eyes, and upon seeing him, a hint of delight crossed her features. “Mr. Nicholas, you’re back,” she said. 

“Right,” Nicholas asked again, “Didn’t you say you were going back to your hometown? You’re back at the company so soon?” 

“The company had some issues, right? I was worried, so I rushed back,” Jocelyn replied. 

“From now on, prioritize your own matters.” Nicholas pulled out a chair and sat down. 

Jocelyn gave a nod, then turned her gaze toward Nicholas, whose face was etched with exhaustion. She couldn’t help but ask, “Mr. Nicholas, has something happened overseas?” 

She didn’t bring up anything about work, knowing without a doubt that Nicholas‘ concerns were only about that woman.

She was simply curious, wondering who that woman really was.

Nicholas forced a smile, feigning nonchalance. “There nothing to worry about, don’t overthink it. Go back and rest.” 

Seeing his reluctance to speak, Jocelyn didn’t feel it was right to press further. “Okay,” she said. 

She hesitated for a moment before she finally left the pice. 

Outside the company, the moon shone brightly amidst the sparse stars. 

Jocelyn gazed at the vast expanse of snow, hoping that he weather would clear up by tomorrow. 

In truth, she could have had someone look into what exactly happened. However, she didn’t want to pry into Nicholas‘ personal affairs. 

The following morning, she discovered that it was Cecilia who had returned. It turned out that Nicholas had been with Cecilia all along during his time abroad. 

At this moment, Jocelyn didn’t know whether she should consider herself fortunate or unfortunate. 

She was grateful that Nicholás was a devoted man, but her joy was tinged with sorrow. She feared he might never change, never come to have feelings for her.
