Chapter 2282
"Look at her, since she's already blind, shouldn't she dress up nicely? Don't tell me she's trying to hook up a rich partner?"
It has to be. Take a look at her. She dropped her belongings on the ground on purpose a few moments ago to offer the man an opportunity to help her. She just touched the handsome guy's finger."
"Sigh, we're not blind. We're not as cunning as her. It appears that we still have much to learn."
Cecilia listened to her discussion from afar. Her face remained calm, and she seemed unconcerned.
She did that on purpose, no doubt. She did this intentionally in order to test Nicholas. Nicholas now appeared to not only pay attention to her, but also to sympathize with her.
Sure enough, Mr. President's son was kind in his bones. Such a good man, on the other hand, would perish in her hands. It was a pity to think about
it.
Cecilia noticed that Nicholas appeared to be sleeping with his eyes closed, which allowed her to sneakily stare at him. He had a distinct character and was really handsome. It was no surprise that several women in the area already had their eyes on him.
"Cecilia. The hot water is here. Drink it." Her servant had come back. In fact, this woman was Leana, one of her subordinates. However now she was looking after her, and she even called her sister, proving how close they were.
"Thank you, sister." Cecilia took a glass of water and drank it slowly.
They boarded the plane after more than half an hour. Cecilia and Leana also got up.
They were at the very front of the queue. Cecilia couldn't move around freely, and Leana was there to support her. Nicholas and Hendrix were standing behind them. Nicholas had no idea why they were squeezing in behind them. He had a hunch she might need help.
Hendrix chuckled. "Did Master Ling develop feelings for her? I've never seen him get so enthusiastic before."
"Ah!" A girl's exclamation suddenly came from the front.
"Cecilia, slow down. Be careful," Leana said with concern.
"I'm all right." Cecilia remarked with a sour smile as she shook her head.
Nicholas narrowed his dark eyes. Her low voice earlier had also held his heart tightly. When he looked at her, he saw that she had tripped on the carpet but had not fallen.
On the plane, Nicholas and Hendrix were in economy class, while Cecilia and Leana were in the two seats behind him.
He didn't know if it was fate, but a tiny smile tugged at Nicholas's thin lips.
Cecilia did not appear in front of Nicholas. Her face stiffened up, and she locked her gaze on the man in front of her. The back of his head was all she could see.
She couldn't do anything in the country, and she couldn't drag her master behind her into this. She had to keep her composure. She would, of course, find a nice opportunity once she arrived at her destination.
Thinking of this, Cecilia decided to take a break first and get some rest. There were still plenty of things to do while she was in another country.
The over-ten-hour flight was tedious
and boring. Nicholas appeared to be
nét
sleeping, yet was aware of the movements going on around him. Hendrix, who sat next to him, couldn't afford to be irresponsible. He appeared to be aloof, but that was simply his personality. In truth, he was an expert in martial arts. He was also an expert in computers and held a doctorate in psychology. He was a multi-talented individual.
Fortunately, everything was quiet on the plane.
Nicholas also believed that those in the shadows would be unable to harm him in the country. In this country, who could possibly escape his father's gaze?
Nicholas was aware that his father looked stern, but how many storms and weapons had he blocked for himself behind his back? He was a responsible father, and also a role model worth studying for his whole life. He must be as outstanding as his father.
After getting off the plane, Nicholas's car came to pick him up. The people he had arranged here had already planned everything; all that was left was for him to arrive.
Cecilia continued to act pitiful. She and Leana walked carefully down the exit corridor, arriving to collect their belongings. Leana struggled to drag the two massive suitcases down the stairs.
Nicholas had luggage as well. When he and Hendrix were waiting by the side, they happened to notice Cecilia and Leana in a chaotic state, and they felt an unexplained sensation of sympathy for them.
"Cough!" Cecilia coughed a few times in a low voice. Leana instantly hurried over to show concern for her and then scolded her "I warned you not to go outside if it was raining. Look, you've now caught a cold I heard seeing a doctor in another country is quite tough. If you need to see a doctor, you may not be able to do so for another six months. How can I find medicine for you?"
"I'm sorry, it's my fault. Sister, don't be angry. It's just a small cold. If I keep it in for a while, I'll be fine," Cecilia whispered.
"You are the only sister I have. What should I do if something bad happens to you? I would not have brought you with me while I have work to do here
if it hadn't been for your poor eyesight." Leana made a point of complaining loudly so that others might hear her.
"I'm sorry, sister. It's my fault. Next time, I won't let you be distracted from taking care of me." In a low voice, Cecilia apologized. Her black eyes were suddenly filled with mist, making them even more attractive.
Nicholas was standing behind them, so he naturally listened to their conversation. It was quite challenging for an older sister who was working in another country to bring a blind sibling along. What would she do if her sister went to work, he wondered?
Nicholas couldn't help but worry for them. His straight brows furrowed.
"My life is quite tough. I'm in my thirties now. Because of you, I'm afraid to get married. It's pointless to say stuff like this. In the future, yout do just fine. Please don't cause me any more trouble. We don't even know where we should stay for the night. Why don't we stay at the company for the night? Let's find a house tomorrow." Leana was also very helpless and very aggrieved.
"Sister, I will be obedient. I will not make any mess for you again." The girl lowered her head, and her long black hair covered her face, making her appear pitiful.
Nicholas had no intention of intentionally listening in on them. However, some words accidently seeped into his ears and caused him to remember them.
Hendrix seemed to have seen the sympathy in Nicholas's eyes. He abruptly turned around and hurried over to Leana, greeting her with a smile. "You two have such a large suitcase. Miss, is there anyone who can come get you?"
"No..." With a gloomy expression on her face, Leana murmured.
"This place is fairly far away from the city center. It's getting dark soon, so it's definitely not convenient for two women to take a taxi. Besides, your sister doesn't have good eyesight. Do you want to consider riding in our car?" Hendrix said this while looking intently at Nicholas, who nodded in
