Chapter 996 The Fight Jessica nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes." In this world, there was probably no one who was more afraid of Nicholas than Jessica.

In truth, when she was young and first met Nicholas, she wasn't afraid of him at all. In fact, she used to tease him in all sorts of ways.

Due to a severe illness, Nicholas' health was in decline. For most of the time, he was confined to a dimly lit room. Jessica didn't favor her cousin who always seemed sickly and weak. For a while, she often secretly followed Nicholas, even resorting to throwing stones at him.

Even when he had cracked open Nicholas' head, he had never gotten angry.

As a result Jessica grew increasingly bold.

On a rainy night, when Jessica saw Nicholas sneak back in, drenched from the rain, she couldn't help but tease him, "Oh, where have you been? I'm going to tell Grandpa Niel that you've been sneaking out." However, she had hardly taken a few the way Nicholas looked at her. His gaze was so icy and terrifying. He looked as if he was a demon who had just escaped from hell.

Even now, Jessica could still vividly rem"Nicholas cbefore her.

Nicholas seized her by the hair. Then, he forcibly led her to a nearby pond and submerged her head under the water.

Every minute that passed didn't threaten her life, yet it made her acutely aware of the pain.

During that ordeal, which lasted for over half an hour, Nicholas didn't utter a single word.

Ever since that incident, Jessica no longer dared to provoke Nicholas. In fact, she would even tremble at the sight of him.

When Jessica stepped out of the office, she still felt a bit unnerved.

Upon reaching the sales department do. Miranda found her demeanor rather odd, as if her mind was elsewhere. "What were you doing upstairs?" "It's nothing much. Nicholas just askedto show a document to Cecilia." Miranda snatched the document from her hands, gave it a quick scan, and returned it to her only after ensuring there were no issues.

"You have to remember that we're on the steam. If you want to win over Nathaniel, you need to listen to me." "Yes." Jessica nodded absentmindedly.

Miranda didn't bother with her anymore. That month, she was determined to make Cecilia leave Orion Corporation.

When Jessica returned to Cecilia's office, she no longer had the inclination to pry into anything.

Just as Cecilia was about to ask her what was wrong, a phone call cin at that moment.

She took the call. It was from a kindergarten teacher.

"What's wrong?" "Ms. Smith, please hurry to the kindergarten. Jon's two great-grandfathers have gotten into a fight over him.” Jon's two great-grandfathers had a fight? Are you kidding me? "Okay. I'll be right there." Cecilia was aware that George was still unwell. She immediately picked up her phone and called Vivian to ask her to accompany her to the kindergarten.

What on earth had happened that led to the two elderly people fighting? The relationship between their two families was really good.

When Cecilia hastily left the office, Miranda assumed she was going to negotiate a deal, so she followed her out because she was plotting to snatch her client.

However, Cecilia had instructed the driver to head straight for the kindergarten.

Upon arriving at the kindergarten, Cecilia stepped out of the car and made her way to the office that m Jonathan's teacher had mentioned. There, she found two elderly people who had already been stopped. Despite this, they still looked flushed and flustered.

"Old Mr. Sinclair, you're being unreasonable. Didn't you hear what hear what the other kids said? They refused to Fal play with Felix because he was violent, not because of Jon. Why are you blaming him?"

Despite being aware of his fault, Niel still defended himself, saying "only just found gut myself. Besides, as Jon's real great-grandfather, how can I not care about him?" Before Cecilia had a clear grasp of the situation, her gaze fell upon two children not far away from them.
