Chapter 795 Nothing Has Changed
Jocelyn, dressed in formal attire, exuded a perfectly business–like demeanor. “Mrs. Rainsworth, Ms. Quill, please, this way.”
“All right.”
She led the way, with Cecilia and Jessica following behind her.
Jessica glanced around as they walked. Ever the social butterfly, she attempted to flatter Jocelyn. “So, you’re Nicholas‘ assistant? You’re so pretty.”
Jocelyn’s expression remained unchanged, just as composed and courteous as when they first met. “Thank you for the compliment.”
Jessica, unfazed by Jocelyn’s cool response, wasn’t embarrassed in the least.
She quickly caught up with her and continued, “What do you usually do at work? Are you in charge of managing Nicholas‘ schedule? Can I reach out to you if there’s something I don’t understand in the future?”
Jocelyn, who had been walking briskly, suddenly stopped in her tracks. Her icy gaze locked onto Jessica’s face.
“Ms. Quill,” she responded calmly, “my job responsibilities don’t concern you. In the future, you’ll be the secretary to Mrs. Rainsworth. If there’s anything you don’t understand, I’d suggest asking your direct supervisor.”
Jessica choked up.
Instead of continuing with the conversation, Jocelyn simply pressed the elevator button.
Cecilia had met Nicholas‘ assistant before, but today was the first time she truly witnessed her professionalism. Jocelyn handled the situation impressively, leaving Jessica, known for her bold. and thick–skinned attitude, completely speechless.
Upon reaching the elevator, Jessica moved beside Cecilia and, without hesitation, began speaking. “Cecilia, don’t you think this assistant is incredibly rude, acting all high and mighty?”
Although she had lowered her voice, everyone in the elevator could hear her, including Cecilia, who relied on a hearing aid.
Needless to say, Jocelyn heard her complaints too.
Cecilia knew Jessica was hoping she’d step in on her behalf, but she wasn’t foolish. Why should I offend Nicholas‘ assistant to defend her? Besides, it was clear Jocelyn wasn’t the one lacking manners in the first place.
“I think Ms. Wright has a point. You should really reflect on your own issues.” Cecilia’s remark left Jessica speechless once again.
Cecilia recalled when Nathaniel was the manager of the Rainsworth family business, the CEO’s office had been located there. Apart from the assistant secretary, all other departments were on the floors below. I wonder if that arrangement is still the same.

Update new chapters please...
Thank you 😊 for the work...
Save us the distress from waiting or we are opting for others...
Hi, good morning Could you please send more chapters? To much books reading and I always forgot the story when it comes. All characters have the same name ( Cecilia, Nathaniel, Madaline, Fabian… )and lots of the names are similar in the same story, so I got confused when I don’t have all story already written. If at least you can send 10 chapters a day…. This story is as good as Mission to Remarry I can’t wait for finish it. But let’s have a great finish and a final chapter with one year of deepest love development. Thank you! Please,please, please!!!!...
What's going on? Why so few chapters?...
This chapter is completely useless!...
Why all chapters are not until the end? The new ones are never the continuation of the previous one. Also, Could you please do not use the "swnovel.net" as a water mark on the paragraphs? I use a listening device and those paragraphs are not readable....
More chapters, please 🙏...
What's going on? Is not Cassandra married? What is she doing in her mother's House?...
Waiting for more chapters...
