When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 1668

Chapter 1668 Family Heirloom
As time ticked away, Nicholas sat in the car, but Jocelyn still hadn't replied to his message.

Feeling inexplicably irritable, he tugged at his tie.

Another ten minutes passed. Seeing that his message seemed to have disappeared into the void, he couldn't help but dial Jocelyn's number.

The call went through, but all he got was the cold voice of the automated service: “Sorry, the number you dialed is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later.”

Nicholas felt even more stifled. He tossed his phone aside and instructed the driver to start the car.

The driver asked, “Mr. Rainsworth, where are we going?”

“I don't know. Just drive around,” Nicholas replied.

“Yes.”

The car pulled out of the garage. Outside, it was drizzling.

Meanwhile, Jocelyn had finished dinner. She chatted briefly with Sofia before leaving with him.

Yannick now looked at her as if she were already his future wife. “How was it? Did you feel comfortable?”

Jocelyn nodded. “Yes, your grandmother is very kind, and so are your parents.”

At that moment, Yannick pulled out an exquisitely wrapped gift box from behind his back.

“Here.”

“What's this?” Jocelyn asked, a little puzzled.

“Open it and see. It's a gift from my parents to you,” Yannick said, placing the box in her hands.

Jocelyn opened it to find a complete set of vintage jewelry.

To be precise, it wasn't just vintage. It was a family heirloom passed down through the generations.

“My parents have acknowledged you. This set of jewelry is something only the future daughter-in-law of our family can have,” Yannick explained.
