Chapter 479 Always By Your Side
Nicholas reached out, ready to brush off the accumulated snow on Cecilia's body.
Instinctively, she avoided him. “Nicholas, how cyou're here?”
The polite greeting left Nicholas‘ hand frozen in mid-air, only retracting after a considerable delay.
“I saw the news report, and that’s how | found out something happened to Martha. You once mentioned that
she’s as important to you as your own mother. | knew you'd be devastated by her passing, so | cto check on
you.”
Having said that, he turned to Martha's tombstone and paid his respects.
Cecilia hadn't expected him to remember their childhood so vividly. She forced a smile and said, “Thank you. I'm
fine.””
Nicholas looked at her face, frozen to a purplish hue, her eyes rimmed red. How can she still pretend like
nothing’s wrong?
“You don’t have to be so strong in front of me. I've told you before, I'll always be by your side.”
Cecilia merely gave a slight nod, unsure of how to respond to him.

After a prolonged silence, she said, “I'm heading home.”
“Ill take you there,” replied Nicholas immediately.
“No need. My car is parked nearby,” Cecilia responded.
“How could you possibly drive in y “Let's go.”
your current state?” Nicholas’ voice was filled with concern. or else you might
Cecilia didn’t feel right to refuse any longer.
Nicholas considerately handed her a small towel. “Brush off the snow on you, or else catch a cold later.”
“Thank you.”
She took the towel, dusted off the accumulated snow on her body, and then got into the car.
Nicholas was seated in the driver's seat, turning on the car’s heater. He also played the song that Cecilia had
loved so much when she was a child.
She was taken aback. “I almost forgot about this song.
“I listened to it quite often while | was undergoing treatment abroad,” said Nicholas.
Hearing this, Cecilia couldn't help but feel guilty. “How have you been all these years while you're abroad?”
Finally hearing her ask about him, Nicholas softly answered, “I'm all right. It’s just that I've been sleeping more
than I've been awake.”
He was just about to start the car when a Bentley pulled up, and two figures, one big and one small, got out of it.
Vivian and Jonathan got up at five in the morning. However, due to the heavy traffic caused by the approaching
New Year celebrations, they still ended up being late.
When they got out of the car, Cecilia spotted them and immediately got out of Nicholas‘ vehicle.
“Jon, Vivian.”
Their eyes were tinged with red, and it was evident they had been crying.
“I'm sorry that we only cnow, Ceci.”
The two were supposed to arrive last night, but the heavy snowfall blocked the roads, so they couldn't make it.
Cecilia shook her head. “It’s okay.”
She knew that Martha would never blthe two of them.
Vivian stepped forward and embraced her as a gesture of comfort.
Jonathan also took hold of Cecilia’s hand, providing her with strength.
Just as he was about to greet her, he saw Nicholas stepping out of the scar and approaching them.

Since the man before him wasn’t blind, Jonathan could immediately tell that he wasn’t Nathaniel.
“Ms. Smith, don’t be sad.” The boy didn’t greet Cecilia as “Mommy*“.
Cecilia understood his intentions, so she wasn’t surprised.
On the other hand, when Vivian saw Nicholas, she couldn't tell him apart from Nathaniel. “Has Nathaniel’s vision
gotten better?”
“He's Nicholas,” revealed Cecilia.
Vivian was in disbelief. The two of them really look identical. No one can probably tell them. apart if they're
solely looking at their appearances. No wonder Ceci mistook one for the other back then.
“Hello, Ms. Kennedy.”
Nicholas gentlemanly extended his hand.
Vivian courteously shook hands with him.
“Hello, Mr. Rainsworth.”
She had heard about Nicholas before, and just as the rumors suggested, he was very gentle.
No wonder Ceci likes him. He's not only handsbut also has a good temper, unlike Nathaniel, that sc*mbag- &
