Super Sweetheart of the CEO Daddy novel Chapter 2291

Cecilia suddenly felt that the atmosphere was a little weird. Why were they holding hands like a couple?

"Leana told me that you’re quite handsome. You must’ve been quite popular with girls, right?

Do you have a girlfriend?"

Cecilia asked him casually.

"No."

Nicholas didn't think about it and answered directly.

"Oh."

Cecilia was stunned for a moment. Obviously, she did not expect him to be so straightforward.

"Then why don't you find one?"

Cecilia continued to joke.

"I don't want to. I want to focus on my career and study."

Nicholas didn't want to lie to her.

"Oh."

He ended her conversation once again. This man... really didn't know how to keep a conversation going.

Nicholas didn't expect that she was the type of person who would chit chat. He thought she would continue to ask something else, but she lowered her head and didn't seem to ask anymore.

"I’ve contacted a doctor regarding your eye condition. He is still abroad now but he will be back in six months."

Nicholas didn't forget about that matter, he wanted to do his best to help the two sisters and to help her regain her eyesight.

"You are a really kind person. I'm already very grateful that you've given us a place to live in. It's just that we don't really know each other well, I don’t feel comfortable accepting your kindness. I really don't want to trouble you regarding my eye condition."

Cecilia was obviously shocked as she didn't expect Nicholas would call the doctor so quickly. Her lie would be exposed if she went to the doctor.

"Don't you want to see the color of this world?

"If you feel that you owe me a favor, you can return it to me when your eyes are cured, but you can't delay your treatment."

Nicholas frowned and said in a serious tone.

"I have been blind for so many years, so I don't mind waiting. I have no idea how to repay your kindness. I really don't want to trouble you anymore..." "I have already made an appointment with the doctor. You will be putting me in a tough spot if you don’t go."

Nicholas didn't expect her to be so stubborn. He thought she was desperate to cure her eyes.

"Mr. Ling, please cancel the appointment. I really don't need your help. My… my eyes can’t be cured. I don't have any hope."

Cecilia looked a little flustered. She had lost composure as she did not know how to deal with that situation.

"I won't cancel this appointment. If you don't want to go to the hospital, I'll let him come over."

Nicholas's attitude was firm.

Cecilia's beautiful eyes widened. Why on earth was Nicholas so determined on treating her eyes? Was he that kind and generous?

How would he feel if he knew that the woman he cared for was aiming to take his life?

"Mr. Ling, do you like me?"

Since Cecilia could not refuse, she boldly changed the topic.

"Uh..." Nicholas's handsome face stiffened, and his ears turned red and hot. He didn't know how to answer her.

"Leana told me that I am a very beautiful girl, and I also know many men like me. They offered to treat my eyes in return for me to be their girlfriend. You are not the first person who wanted to help me."

Cecilia could only say it shamelessly. Maybe if she said that, Nicholas would no longer insist.

Nicholas narrowed his eyes at the thought of men wanting to help her.

Otherwise, her cover would have been blown and she wouldn’t be able to know more about Nicholas to carry on her mission.

It would have been extremely difficult to get closer to him in the future if he found out.

No, she had to work harder. She had to dig up more information from Nicholas.

Nicholas's expression froze after his kind offer was rejected by Cecelia. He sincerely wanted to help her, but she was stubborn. She even gave absurd reasons to persuade him. He wondered what kind of power was hidden in her delicate body.

Her persistence and determination made Nicholas look at Cecilia in a new light.

They encountered Leana who had just come from work outside of their residence. Leana hurried over and took Cecelia’s hand from Nicholas. She also apologized to Nicholas.

"Cecelia, Mr. Ling is a busy man, you can’t always trouble him."

Leana pretended to reprimand her sister.

"I know, sister."

Cecilia looked down with a sad expression, this scene could make people feel sorry for her.

Seeing that she was being reprimanded, Nicholas quickly explained to clear the misunderstanding. "It's not Miss Xia's fault. I invited her for dinner."

"Mr. Ling, I really don't know how to repay your kindness. If I hadn't met someone as kind as you, it would have been really hard for me and my sister."

Leana's eyes turned red and tears welled up in her eyes as she spoke.

"It’s nothing much actually, you don’t have to feel burdened by it. If there’s nothing more, I'll head back first."

Nicholas was afraid that Leana would say more to express her gratitude, so he quickly turned around and left.

Leana helped Cecilia in and reported what she had done today.

Cecilia narrowed her eyes and looked at the window of Nicholas’s room which was opposite of hers as thoughts were running in her head. Nicholas seemed to be different from what she expected.
