When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 2144

Unfortunately, Nicholas didn't receive a single call or message from Jocelyn during his long stay in the hospital.

Staring at Jocelyn's phone number on his phone screen, Nicholas became lost in thought.

Wren pushed the door open, and Nicholas quickly turned off his phone.

"Dad, why are you here again?" He was truly exhausted from dealing with his parents.

Wren sat beside him. "How are you feeling today?"

Nicholas parted his lips to reply emotionlessly, "I feel the same as before. Nothing changed."

"How can that be? The doctor gave you medicine, and your complexion is better," Wren said.

Nicholas didn't have the patience to entertain him. "Dad, if you have nothing else to tell me, please just go home."

"It's been so long. Don't you want to talk to me?" Wren asked.

"We have nothing to talk about." Nicholas closed his eyes.

"Tell me—why did you suddenly drink so much? Do you have something on your mind? Let me know about it, and I'll do everything in my power to help you," Wren advised sincerely.

Nicholas sneered. "You can't. Don't make promises so casually in the future."

Wren was speechless.

Nicholas rolled onto his side with his back toward Wren.

With no other choice, Wren got up to leave.

When he arrived outside the ward, he suddenly felt so useless. He wasn't even able to have a simple father-son conversation with Nicholas.

Elena, having finished asking the doctor about Nicholas' condition, turned on her heels and saw the frustrated-looking Wren.

Smiling, she walked over and asked, "How did the talk with Nicholas go?"

Wren's expression was glum. "He refuses to talk to me," he answered truthfully.
