When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 491

Chapter 491 Nothing To Fear
“Vivian, don't overthink it,” George explained further, “What matters to me is you as a person. Even if you and Zach don't have children, you're still the only granddaughter-in-law I acknowledge.”

Vivian had never felt such validation from someone like she did that day. Her eyes were brimming with emotion as she said, “Grandpa, thank you.”

Upon reflection, marrying into the Sinclair family might not be such a bad idea after all.

Zachary had lost his parents at a young age. Hence, she wouldn't have the typical mother-in-law and daughter-in-law conflicts. Moreover, his only grandfather treated her exceptionally well.

“No need to be so formal with me.”

Vivian thought about the matter she had been keeping to herself, unable to resist, she said, “Grandpa, I was thinking of meeting a friend tomorrow, is that okay?”

“Of course, that's fine. However, Jonathan must stay. I've already arranged to meet with those elders. They've travelled from out of town, specifically to see my brilliant great-grandson.”

“All right.”

Vivian also intended to have a one-on-one with Nathaniel.

The following day.

Outside, the snow was falling thick and heavy once again. Cecilia and Nathaniel truly did not return to Rainsworth Manor.

Originally, Elena had intended to take advantage of their return to give Cecilia a good private lesson, but she had to let it go.

After having breakfast, Nicholas left Cassandra and Elena to head off to work.

Upon seeing the situation, Cassandra couldn't help but ask, “Do you have to work even on New Year's Day?”

“Indeed, a few projects at the company have been problematic recently,” Nicholas' voice was listless, a hint of impatience flickering in his dark eyes.

“Let me know if there's anything you need help with.”

Cassandra spoke graciously in Elena's presence.

“All right.”

Nicholas gave a slight nod and walked out of the restaurant.

Elena was quite pleased with Cassandra. “Cassandra, you know that Nicholas has only recently taken over the company, don't take it to heart.”

Cassandra nodded. “Mhm, I understand. A few days ago, I mentioned to my mother that she should consider collaborating with Orion Corporation when she has the time.”

The woman referred to as “mother” by Cassandra was Queenie.

Upon hearing this, Elena grew even fonder of Cassandra.

How could Cecilia compete with her when Elena didn't even like her?

Meanwhile, at Daltonia Villa.

Cecilia, Nathaniel, and Elliot were making ravioli together.

Nathaniel, unable to see, simply assisted from the side.

Before long, his phone rang. He answered the call, and a familiar female voice echoed from the other end.

“Mr. Rainsworth, I'm Vivian, a childhood friend of Ceci. Do you have some free time now? I'd like to have a chat with you.”

Vivian sat in the car, gazing at the distant villa, and mustered up the courage to speak.

“Sure.”

After ending the call, Nathaniel gave a brief word to Cecilia before he walked out.

Vivian was sitting in the car, her heart pounding as she saw Nathaniel emerge. She couldn't explain her sudden nervousness, so she tried to reassure herself.

He's blind, there's nothing to fear.
