When Her Death Couldn't Break Him novel Chapter 564

Chapter 564 I Was Deceived
Though Nathaniel was stringent with his subordinates, he was never stingy.

He promoted Ernest and also doubled his salary.

Ernest's face remained impassive, devoid of any emotion. As he was about to leave, he couldn't help but question Nathaniel.

“Mr. Rainsworth, is Vivian going to marry into the Sinclair family?”

Ernest had heard about it, and he was aware that Nathaniel and Zachary were close friends.

Nathaniel replied candidly, “Yes, they are already engaged.”

The words triggered a flicker in Ernest's eyes.

“Mr. Rainsworth, Vivian is a friend of your wife. Could you possibly do her a favor? Please persuade Zachary to reconsider his decision to marry Vivian.”

Nathaniel didn't understand the meaning behind his words.

He didn't ask why. Instead, he said coolly, “Ernest, our relationship is strictly professional. I'm not in the habit of prying into other people's personal affairs.”

“If you didn't want Vivian to marry Zachary, you should talk to them both yourself.”

What he detested the most was meddling in other people's relationships.

After hearing what was said, all Ernest could do was quietly walk away.

As soon as he left, Mason couldn't help but comment, “He's treating you like someone who goes around breaking relationships, Mr. Rainsworth.”

“Do you have nothing better to do?” Nathaniel asked in a serious tone.

Immediately, Mason shut up and went back to work.

Nathaniel was engrossed in his work, oblivious to the fact that at home, a hot-tempered young boy was causing a ruckus.

“Darn it, darn it, what a liar!” Elliot was furious. When he woke up that morning, he had learned from the housekeeper that Nathaniel had already left for work.

The housekeeper was the same one who had once taken care of him at Spring Forest Manor, a slightly chubby girl.

“Eli, what's wrong?”

Cecilia was off composing, leaving the housekeeper perplexed as she watched Elliot's temper flare.

Elliot's face was flushed. “It's nothing. I was just deceived by someone.”

“Who would dare to deceive you? Tell me, and I will confront them.” The housekeeper, seeing Elliot so upset, was heartbroken.
