When Her “Death” Couldn’t Break Him 

Chapter 1236 Give It All Back To Him 

Finished 

As Cecilia entered the room, a faint glimmer of warmth flickered in Nicholas‘ eyes. “You’re here,” he said softly, his gaze gentle. 

Cecilia noticed his pale appearance and immediately felt something was off. “Mr. Rainsworth, are you feeling okay? You look pale.” 

Hearing her polite and distant tone made Nicholas feel as though his heart was being pierced. It pained him deeply. He shrugged it off casually. “It’s nothing serious. I probably just caught a cold from the rain a few days ago,” he explained, waving his hand as if to downplay the situation. 

“Come sit with me.” He gestured toward a nearby seat. There’s something I want to talk about.” 

Cecilia hesitated but eventually sat down on the couch across from him. “What is it?” she asked. 

“Could we maybe skip the formalities?” Nicholas asked, a hint of sadness in his voice. 

Cecilia lowered her gaze, unsure how to respond. Nicholas, noticing her discomfort, didn’t push further. 

“Never mind, just speak however you’re comfortable.” He paused for a moment before continuing, “I asked you here because I want to talk to you about something important.” 

Cecilia looked up, puzzled. 

“I don’t want to be the CEO of Orion Corporation anymore,” Nicholas said. 

“Why?” Cecilia was confused. 

“I never wanted to compete with my brother,” Nicholas began. “The only reason I took over was because he lost his memory and his sight. Our mother made me step in to prevent the company from falling into the wrong hands. But now that he’s recovered, it’s time! give it all back to him.” 

Cecilia wasn’t sure how to respond. She was surprised by his sudden decision. 

Nicholas continued, “If it’s not too much trouble, could you relay my message to him? Tell him, I prefer my freedom after all.” 

“You should talk to him about this directly,” she suggested. “It’s better coming from you.” 

At Nicholas‘ wedding, Nathaniel had made it clear that he wouldn’t be returning to Orion Corporation. But Cecilia knew for certain that Nicholas wasn’t one to speak without thinking. 

Nicholas began to cough, his body wracked with sudden weakness. Concerned, Cecilia quickly handed him a glass of water. 

“Here, drink some water,” she said. 

When Nicholas took the cup of water, his hand brushed against Cecilia’s, and she quickly pulled away, feeling something sticky on the back of her hand. 

Glancing down, she realized her hand was covered in blood. Nicholas, still coughing violently, tried to take a sip of the water, but she noticed the clear liquid in the glass was now stained red.

Jocelyn, who had been waiting just outside, rushed in the moment she heard Cecilia’s voice. 

Nicholas, still struggling with his coughing fit, tried to brush off their concern. Tm fine, he muttered weakly. 

“You’re coughing up blood! How could you possibly be okay?” Cecilia exclaimed, her voice filled with panic.
