After all, Julian and Cecilia had an engagement.
"Wrap this around you. It's too cold here.” Then he asked her, "Why hasn't Mr. Fulcher returned to pick
you up?"
It had been two to three days since Julian had left. Not only had he not returned, but there was also no
word from Noel.
Cecilia was getting restless. She even thought about dragging Albert to the police station, but Albert
insisted on waiting for Julian to return. He believed that his master must have a solution.
After all, Albert was Noel's father. Cecilia didn't want to blatantly accuse him of being blindly loyal. In
private, she had already contacted someone from the Jarvis family to inquire about Noel's
whereabouts.
As for Julian, she said, "I don't care about him."
Aman who was naturally aloof and had a heart of ice would find it hard to love someone normally.
Cecilia also came from a prominent family. In Richburgh, it was rare to find a wealthy and harmonious
family like hers, where everyone got along and there were no scandals—just any other normal family.
In fact, one could say that a family without any scandal or some mess between men and women didn't
deserve to be called an elite family.
This was one of the reasons Cecilia found herself liking

In fact, one could say that a family without any scandal or some mess between men and women didn't

This was one of the reasons Cecilia found herself liking Noel more and more. His family was simple,
and he had a modest background. There wouldn't be any messy and scandalous affairs waiting for her.
Besides, Albert seemed simple and honest at first glance. In the days Cecilia stayed here, he had
treated her exceptionally well, even though the living conditions were simple.
The naturally grown sweet potatoes, vegetables, and various fruits were carefully nurtured by Albert in
the small greenhouse. They were all incredibly delicious.
To some extent, staying here alleviated Cecilia’s anxiety over Noel's continued absence. As long as
there was no news, it was the best news.
Although she didn't like Julian, she believed his words: Noel wasn't the kind of person who didn't value
his life, and no one could harm him easily.
Cecilia skillfully peeled the charred skin of the sweet potato to reveal its tender, golden flesh. She took
a bite of the charred skin, enjoying its slightly burnt flavor as she ate it along with the sweet potato.
“Delicious!”
She warmed her hands a little as she continued eating.
Albert had made the fire bigger to keep them warm.
"Didn't you follow Mr. Fulcher here?” he asked her.
Over these past few days, they had become somewhat familiar. Albert would occasionally engage in
small talk with Cecilia.
Cecilia shook her head. “No, he followed me here.”
Albert was a bit surprised. Recently, he wondered why Cecilia was so concerned about Noel. Was it
because...
With just a glance, he could tell she was a well-bred young lady from a prestigious family. After his
experience with Kayla and Diana, Albert had learned to judge people more accurately.
He could tell that Cecilia was a good person, well-mannered and kind-hearted. Unlike his old self, he
no longer judged people solely by their social status.
In short, she was a very nice girl.
"I know what you want to ask,” Cecilia said.
The campfire cast a fiery glow on her delicate and elegant face as she smiled, somewhat embarrassed.
"I like your son. I came here to wait for him to return, so I can confess my feelings to him in person.”
Although he had expected this, Albert's eyes still widened.
He was about to speak and urge Cecilia to think it over, when he heard a stern voice calling her.
“Cecilia!”
It was her mother, Sue Chimmery.
Cecilia couldn't hold the sweet potato anymore, and turned her head around stiffly.
