Chapter 1439 Confronting Jocelyn
Seeing how happy Nicholas looked, Jocelyn couldn't help but want to see who he was chatting with.
Nicholas wasn't wary of her, so Jocelyn merely caught a glimpse 20
of him chatting with another woman.
However, she immediately averted her gaze, not daring to look again.
Jocelyn found the sight hard to believe. In her mind, Nicholas had always been a truly good person. Why is he cheating?
She knew for certain that the person chatting with Nicholas was not Cassandra.
Who exactly is she?
Jocelyn had always believed that Nicholas was loyal man when it came to love and his heart had been captured by Cecilia. She never imagined that he would now be intimately conversing with another woman.
She felt a pang of disappointment in her heart, hung her head low, and said nothing.
That evening, when Jocelyn was heading home after work, she was blocked by a car.
The car window rolled down, revealing Cassandra's proud face.
In reflex, Jocelyn took a step back.
Observing her demeanor, Cassandra couldn't help but chuckle. "Ms. Wright, you have nothing to worry about. I won't harm you. Right now, I mainly want to ask you about something." "What is it?" Jocelyn asked, her face expressionless.
"Let's talk in the car," said Cassandra.
Jocelyn, however, remained rooted to the spot, refusing to get in. "If there's something you want to discuss," she insisted, "let's talk about it right here."
She was well aware that Cassandra was no saint. Now that Nicholas had forced her to apologize, she was certain that the latter wouldn't let her off the hook easily. However, Jocelyn guessed wrong.
Cassandra noticed her reluctance to get in the car and knew the latter was being wary of herself. Consequently, she took the initiative to step out of the vehicle. "Let's find a place to talk. Don't worry, I'm not one to hold grudges. I won't seek revenge on you," Cassandra reassured her, patting her shoulder.
From Cassandra's reaction, Jocelyn was certain she wasn't there to cause her trouble. Thus, she followed Cassandra to a quiet restaurant nearby and took a seat. Cassandra had even gone out of her way to ask the waiter to bring over the menu, handing it to Jocelyn. "Take a look and see what you'd like. It's on me," she offered. Jocelyn had no idea what Cassandra was up to. She didn't order anything and got straight to the point.

"Ms. Evans, perhaps you should first tell me what you really want to talk about," she said.

In response, Cassandra decided not to beat around the bush. "Has Nicholas been seeing another woman?" she asked.
Jocelyn's expression stiffened.
After observing her expression, Cassandra more or less had her answer.
"Tell me, who is that woman?" Cassandra gently placed her hand on Jocelyn's face. "As long as you tell me, I promise you'll be rewarded."
Instinctively, Jocelyn stepped back, evading her grasp.
"I'm sorry. I truly don't know anything about this."
"You don't know?" Cassandra's suspended hand fell limply to her side. She pulled out a card from her bag and presented it to Jocelyn. "There's half a million in here. If you tell me who that woman is, it's yours. Of course, this is just an advance. Once I find out who she is, you'll get another half a million."novelbin
Cassandra knew that Jocelyn's monthly salary was no more than twenty thousand.
The latter would have to work for several years to earn a million, so she believed that no one could resist the windfall.
Regrettably, Jocelyn wasn't the person Cassandra had assumed her to be, as she didn't take the card.
"I genuinely have no idea if Mr. Nicholas is seeing someone else, and I certainly don't know who this woman you're talking about is.".
Even if she had known, she wouldn't have shared it with Cassandra.
Cassandra's grip on the card tightened subconsciously. "Are you sure about this, Ms. Wright? Have you really decided not to tell me?"
