When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 978

Chapter 978 Utterly Unfair 

Cecilia looked at Jessica, who appeared pitiful, with nothing but indifference in her 

eyes. 

“Jessica, is there something wrong with my mind, or is it yours? You expect me to assist you in seducing my own husband?” 

Choked with emotion, Jessica confessed, “But I genuinely love him.” 

Cecilia chuckled. “The way you’re talking, it’s as if I don’t care for Nathaniel? Besides, even if you do like him, it doesn’t mean he reciprocates. Forcing a man’s feelings, that’s not cool, is it?” 

Jessica pinched her palm. 

“I…” 

Cecilia was too busy to deal with her at the moment. “I have work to do now,” she said. “If you’ve got nothing else, don’t stand here and get in my way.” 

Upon realizing that Cecilia couldn’t possibly help her, Jessica’s expression soured. 

“You’re so out of touch with people’s feelings. I hope you get kicked out of the company soon, and don’t Come begging to me when it happens.” 

After she finished speaking, she stormed out, slamming the door behind her. 

Cecilia felt that Jessica was not just annoying, but also insane. 

Jessica was absolutely insane. 

Cecilia took a deep breath, not wanting to let Jessica affect her mood. 

After Jessica left, she found Miranda and informed her, “Cecilia is now at the office, just sitting there and not doing anything.” 

“Are you sure?” Miranda couldn’t believe it. 

“I’m certain of it. I glanced at her workspace and it was all filled with Orion Corporation’s meeting materials, nothing about the Imminence Corporation.” A cold glint flickered in Jessica’s eyes. “I think she was just stirring up trouble on purpose, wanting to draw everyone’s attention to her. She didn’t really have any substance.” 

Upon hearing all this, Miranda didn’t say much. 

“Okay, you just keep a close eye on her.” 

Inside the company, the news of Miranda and Cecilia’s bet had also reached the ears of Elena and the others at Rainsworth Manor. 

Elena was taken aback. “Are you saying that Cecilia and Miranda had a bet that the winner would become the manager of the sales department?” 

The assistant nodded. “Yes, that’s the message we received from the company’s headquarters.”

“What bet did they make?” Elena asked. 

“The bet was on whether Cecilia could snatch the project from Imminence Corporation,” the assistant replied. 

Imminence Corporation was a name that Elena had heard of long ago. Ever since the company hard set foot in Tudela, it had been causing trouble for Orion Corporation, which had been a constant source of distress for her. 

“Young people these days really have no sense of danger.” Elena quickly regained her composure. 

She felt that Cecilia had barely started working at Orion Corporation before she was trying to bite off more than she could chew. It was as difficult as scaling the heavens. 

It wasn’t a big deal if Cecilia lost, but it was unacceptable if it cost Elena her dignity! 

“Go ahead,” Elena instructed her assistant to leave first. 

“Okay.”
