When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 1834

Chapter 1834 Does Not Deserve
It was the first time Cassandra had been slapped so openly.

She was breathing heavily, her eyes full of shock. The naïve cousin, who once practically worshipped her, had surprisingly raised a hand against her! “Yuliana, just you wait!”

Yuliana crossed her arms over her chest, looking down at her with an air of superiority. “Wait for what? For you to emerge decades later, old and faded?”

That sentence nearly sent Cassandra into shambles. “I won't end up in prison. Someone will definitely come to rescue me.”

“Oh, who's going to come to your rescue?” Yuliana asked.

Cassandra was rendered speechless.

Originally, Yuliana was her last lifeline, but she had managed to mess that up.

Seeing her at a loss for words, Yuliana continued to twist the knife. “Let me tell you, I've not been idling these past few days. I had someone look into Nicholas. Do you know what he's been up to?”

When that terrifying man, Nicholas, was mentioned, a great shock seized Cassandra's heart. “What is he doing?”

“He's been meeting potential partners everywhere. He's probably seen every eligible lady in town by now. I can't figure out why he's in such a rush to get married. Could it be he's trying to move on from you quickly?”

Upon hearing that, Cassandra couldn't help but let out a bitter laugh. “Whoever married such a man would bring a disaster upon themselves.”

Her innocence was entirely ruined by Nicholas.

Yuliana propped her chin, somewhat puzzled by Cassandra's words. “Didn't you really like him?”

Cassandra involuntarily tightened her grip when she heard the word “like.” “He doesn't deserve anyone's affection.”

“Why?” Yuliana's interest was piqued.

Cassandra went silent because that incident caused her agony that would last her entire life.

Yuliana's curiosity intensified. “What exactly did Nicholas do?”

“What's it to you?” Cassandra refused to answer.

Yuliana didn't press further. “It's none of my business, but our feud isn't over yet. Brace yourself for what's to come.”
