When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 1670 Secret Crush

"You've never been in a relationship, right?" Yannick sounded puzzled. Who could possibly compare to him?

Jocelyn heard his question and gave a bitter smile. "Yes, I've never been in one. You could say it was just a secret crush."

Hearing that, Yannick was momentarily at a loss for words.

This was the first time he'd encountered such an honest woman.

"Then why didn't you confess to him?" He grew curious.

Jocelyn stared out the window, taking her time before replying, "Because he has someone he likes, and I'm sure he doesn't feel the same way about me."

"So, what you're saying is, there's absolutely no chance for the two of you to be together, right?" Yannick pressed further.

Jocelyn froze for a moment before nodding in acknowledgment. "Yes, there's no chance."

"In that case, there's no need for us to break up, is there? I don't mind."

It was just a crush, after all.

Yannick was confident that with his charm, a woman like Jocelyn, who had never been in a relationship before would eventually fall for him.

"But..." Jocelyn wanted to say something, but Yannick interrupted her again.

"There's no 'but'. Let's settle this here and now. Don't mention breaking up again. When it comes to relationships, there's no such thing as fair or unfair. I don't mind you holding someone else in your heart, as long as you don't mind my past either."

Yannick's words made Jocelyn realize her own feelings. "Okay, it's a deal."

"Mm."

Only then did Yannick end the call.

Sofia couldn't help but ask, "How did it go?"

"What do you mean?" Yannick was confused.

"You and Jocelyn, of course. Jocelyn is a good girl, so you must cherish her. She's no less than any of those wealthy heiresses."

Sofia wasn't randomly matchmaking. Before this, she had looked into Jocelyn.

Although Jocelyn's family background was ordinary, her abilities were exceptional.

Her grandson, who had always been indifferent to the family business, needed a capable partner like her.

"I know. I'll cherish her," Yannick said seriously.

"Good."

Only then did Sofia feel relieved.

After Nicholas came home, a servant informed him that Cecilia and the others had also left.

Elena, standing nearby, clicked her tongue. "So Nathaniel and Ceci finally ended up together."

In the past, hearing this might have unsettled him.noveldrama

Yet, today, for some reason, he found himself less concerned about Cecilia and Nathaniel's affairs.

Nicholas snapped out of his thoughts. "It's nothing."

Elena assumed he was still bitter about Cecilia and Nathaniel, so she tried to comfort him. "Nicholas, you and Nathaniel are brothers after all. I still hope the two of you can get along. Don't listen to outsiders."

Elena had an inkling about Nicholas meeting with Robert and the others frequently.

"Okay," Nicholas responded coldly before attempting to leave.

Elena stopped him again. "Nicholas, go see Dahlia. That child probably doesn't have much time left." Nicholas paused mid-step.

He hesitated for a good while before finally saying, "Okay."

At the hospital, Cassandra was told

that the child's condition had

"Ms. Evans, please sign here. A transfusion is her last chance."

Queenie also urged her, "Cassandra, hurry and sign it."

"I won't sign. Even if she's saved, she'll just be a burden," Cassandra said coldly.

She'd had plenty of suitors lately, and once she rid herself of Dahlia, her future would be bright.
