When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 1519

Chapter 1519 Jocelyn Meets Yannick 

Finished 

Nicholas sat off to the side, unable to fully catch the conversation on the other end of the line between Jocelyn and the other person, but he had a vague sense that it was a man. 

“Jocelyn, are you in a relationship?” he asked, his voice inged with surprise. 

The unexpected question took Jocelyn off guard, and she paused before responding, “I’m not sure if it counts yet. We’re still in the stage of getting to know each other.” 

Nicholas nodded. “That’s great. When your relationship is confirmed, bring him to meet me. I can help you evaluate him.” 

Jocelyn hadn’t expected such a casual remark, so free of any jealousy. It only confirmed what she’d been suspecting: Nicholas didn’t have feelings for her at all. 

Jocelyn forced a bitter smile, a stark contrast to her usual demeanor, as she rejected Nicholas. 

“Mr. Nicholas, there’s no need,” she replied. 

“Why?” Nicholas asked, taken aback. 

Jocelyn herself couldn’t quite pinpoint why she felt this way, but an inexplicable anger simmered beneath 

the surface. Unable to hold it in, she blurted, “This is my personal business.” 

Nicholas was left speechless. 

Jocelyn continued, her tone firm, “Mr. Nicholas, you’ve never involved me in your personal matters, have you? I hope you can extend me the same respect.” 

For the first time, Jocelyn had rejected Nicholas. 

Nicholas watched her, still in a daze, a hint of disbelief in his expression. Jocelyn noticed his gaze but paid it no mind, instead casually turning to look out the window. Outside, the snow had begun to fall again. 

“When will this snow stop?” she murmured to herself. 

Nicholas, shifting the subject, replied, “Yes, the snow is particularly heavy this year.” 

Silence fell between them. Later, when Jocelyn had finished her work for the day and Nicholas arrived at the office, he discovered that she had already left her desk much earlier. 

For reasons he couldn’t quite explain, he became curious about where she had gone. 

The blizzard outside continued to intensify, and after a long moment of hesitation, Nicholas stood up and left the office. He instructed the driver to start the car. 

At a Clusian restaurant, Jocelyn entered the private room and immediately spotted the man who had been waiting there for some time. He was dressed in simple, unremarkable attire, but his features were well- proportioned–the kind of appearance that would appeal to older people. 

As soon as he saw Jocelyn, the man waved and, with a gentlemanly gesture, pulled out a chair for her. “Please, have a seat.”

Although Jocelyn was Nicholas’s assistant, outside of work–related events, she had no idea how to interact with unfamiliar men. 

“Hello, Mr. Hayes,” she said, her voice tinged with awkwardness, as though she were merely attending to a task. 

Yannick chuckled softly. “Hello.” 

The conversation only seemed to heighten Jocelyn’s discomfort, making her feel more awkward by the 

moment. 

It appeared Yannick had noticed her unease. To ease the tension, he extended the menu toward her. “You must be hungry, coming at this hour,” he said. “I wasn’t sure what you’d like, so I haven’t ordered yet. Take a look at the menu.”
