When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 1252

Chapter 1252 Finding A Wife
“No need. Thank you.”

Cecilia declined the support offered by Eric.

Charlotte looked this way, unable to hold back her surprise. “Mr. Palmer, there are already rumors online about you having a relationship with my boss. Don't put my boss in a tough spot, will you?”

As she spoke, she simultaneously prepared a soft pillow for Cecilia.

With a smile, Cecilia strolled over and took a seat. “Stop making fun of Eric. We all know that those rumors were spread by people with ill intentions.”

“Absolutely,” Charlotte replied immediately.

A certain unease brewed within Eric's heart after he heard Cecilia's words.

It turned out that, from Cecilia's perspective, there really wasn't much of a connection between the two of them.

“Eric, you should also sit down and order something,” Cecilia suggested, oblivious to his peculiar demeanor.

“All right.”

The trio went on to order some dishes.

Before the food had even arrived, Charlotte couldn't help but ask Eric, “Eric, do you have a girlfriend? Do you have a secret relationship? Are you in a secret marriage?”

Eric was taken aback. “Why are you suddenly asking this?”

“Is it just a question, or is it inconvenient for you to answer?” Charlotte asked, puzzled.

After hearing that, Eric turned to look at Cecilia. “Why would there be any inconvenience? You know my situation, don't you, Ms. Cecille? I've been in Alendor shooting commercials recently. I don't have the time for a secret relationship, let alone a marriage.”

Charlotte's spirits clearly fell after she heard that response. “I see.”

“What's the matter?” Eric was confused.

“Well, haven't the online news been spreading rumors about you and our boss?” Charlotte didn't bother with formalities with Eric. “If you have a lover or a wife, maybe you could make it public. That way, people wouldn't misunderstand.”

It was important to note that Eric's rise to fame was largely thanks to Cecilia.

From Charlotte's perspective, it was only right for Eric to lend a hand to Cecilia, who was in need of help at the time.
