Chapter 2290


    Reba red at Hendrix angrily. Nichs replied calmly, "It has not been long since we met each other."


    Cecilia ate quietly. The servant put lots of food on her te, but she didn''t eat much.


    When Reba heard that they had just met, she felt even depressed as it seemed like she was slightlyte and allowed the other women to take the lead. She had long known that Nichs was a man with self-cultivation. Although he seemed to be cold and aloof, he was easy going. He was gentle and slightly domineering. He was the perfect man.


    She did not want to lose such a man to anyone.


    "Mr. Ling, I''m done eating, I would like to head back first."


    Cecilia felt the strong hostility of Reba and she didn''t want to get involved and be bothered by it.


    "You only ate so little. Won''t you get hungryter?"


    Nichs frowned. Was she too embarrassed to eat more because her sister was not around?


    Cecilia thought to herself, "I have no appetite now. It doesn''t mean I won''t eat anything elseter. Of course, I won''t let myself starve."


    "Let me send you back."


    Nichs put down his chopsticks and stood up.


    "Ah, there''s no need. I don''t want to bother Mr. Ling. I can go back by myself. I''m already familiar with the route."


    Cecilia was surprised and said in a panic tone.


    "It''s no trouble. Let''s go."


    Nichs walked to her side and took her wrist.


    Cecilia felt as if her body was electrocuted by a warm current. Nichs held her wrist out of courtesy. Although there was a cloth between them, the warmth of his palm can still be felt by her skin.


    Nichs insisted on walking her back so she had to follow his instructions. She followed him and walked out of the hall.


    Reba''s eyes widened. She couldn''t believe that Nichs would personally walk that blind woman home.


    "Hendrix, what''s going on? What''s their rtionship?Content ? copyrighted by N?velDrama.Org.


    Why is he so nice to her?"


    Reba was really jealous. They had known each other for a long time but she had never touched his clothes, let alone hold his hands. "We met her on the ne. Mr. Nichs took her in due to sympathy. You also saw that she couldn''t see so she needed someone to help her. Mr. Nichs only helped her out of kindness."


    Hendrix also frowned as it was unusual for Nichs to offer kindness to a woman. But just now, he did take the initiative to help Cecilia.


    Could it be... it couldn''t be that Nichs had fallen for this blind girl right? Nichs was surrounded with plenty of excellent girls, why would he fall for her?


    Reba was already biting her utensils with hatred, staring at the outside of the door.


    The reason Nichs offered to walk Cecilia home was not because he liked her, but because he could feel Reba''s passionate eyes staring at him at the dining table just now.


    Nichs would never fall in love with Reba. He was only polite to her because she was Hendrix''s cousin. But just now, it was too unbearable that he needed an excuse to leave the table temporarily.


    It was dark, and the street lights were on. The warm yellow street light made the night more peaceful.


    There was a distance from the restaurant to Cecelia''s residence, it would take around 10 minutes by walking. The garden path was curved and there were some branches sticking out blocking the way. Nichs would clear the path for her. Everything looked so natural.


    Cecilia continued to pretend to be blind. But her heart was moved whenever Nichs cleared the branches out of her way. She subconsciously frowned.


    This man... he couldn''t possibly be this kind and gentleman to all girls, right?


    Thinking of this, Cecilia turned sideways to see Nichs''s face with the corner of her eyes.


    Under the dark light and shadows, Nichs''s facial features were extremely handsome, prominent and sharp, full of masculinity.


    Cecilia felt as if her heart had been stabbed by something as she developed an inexplicable feeling.


    To be honest, she hadn''t seen many


    .n


    good-looking men. As for those famous male stars, they were like embroidered pillows in her eyes, and she could forget them at a nce.


    But the man beside her gave her a very different feeling. He was young, handsome, and had an outstanding temperament. His eyebrows gave off a domineering and fierce vibe. He might seem to be an easy going person, but in fact, he was not


    someone to be trifled with. Content

    Ceciliained in her heart hoping that Nichs was a jerk. That way, she would not feel guilty about killing him.


    "Be careful."


    Just as Cecilia was lost in her


    Cecilia


    thoughts, she identally kicked a


    stone beside her. She heard


    Nichs''s reminder, but it was toote. She felt the sharp pain from her toes instantly and she groaned subconsciously.


    "Are you okay? It''s all my fault. I should have warned you earlier."


    Cecelia heard Nichs ming himself.


    "It''s okay. It doesn''t hurt."


    Cecilia shook her head and endured the pain.


    "Look at your face. You look like you''re in great pain."


    Nichs could tell that she was being tough with herself, he couldn''t help but chide her.


    "The fall I had before was much more painful than this. My leg has long been numb, I don''t feel much pain now. It really doesn''t hurt." Nichs''s eyes froze and he stared at her face for a few seconds, unable to picture how much pain she had suffered trying to survive.


    "Mr. Ling..." Cecilia called out softly, pretending to be uneasy.


    Cecelia felt a little nervous as Nichs was looking at her.


    It was said that Nichs had a pair of sharp eyes and could see through many tricks. Would he not realize that she was pretending?


    Or, he had already seen through her and was cooperating with her acting.


    "I''m here."


    Nichs shifted his gaze away.


    He felt a little pain in his heart as he looked at her face. What was wrong with him?


    Why did he suddenly be so kind?


    There were plenty of poor people worldwide, but why was he empathetic towards her?


    "Let''s go on. How far are we to my residence?"


    Cecilia purposely moved a few steps forward and asked casually.


    "We''re almost there."


    Nichs suppressed those sudden thoughts and reached out to hold her arm. He was being extra careful that time.


    He was surprised to find how slender her arms were and he didn''t dare to exert force.
