Chapter 636 Remained In The Same Spot
Even though Nathaniel clearly remembered the route there, his inability to see meant he would undoubtedly bump into others while walking.
He didn’t fancy feeling his way around, let alone using a white cane.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
The hospital entrance was filled with parked cars, making it difficult for the driver to find a spot. As such, Nathaniel stood in the same spot for quite some time.
That day, he learned a valuable lesson, which was not to upset Cecilia in public or to anger a pregnant woman.
The driver had never seen his boss in such a state of helplessness before. He was also taken aback by the fact that Cecilia had abandoned the blind Nathaniel at the hospital entrance. He worried. about what could happen if anything went wrong.
He lightly jogged over to Nathaniel’s side. “Mr. Rainsworth, are you all right?”
Nathaniel had been waiting impatiently, but surprisingly, he didn’t lose his temper when the driver arrived. “Be quicker next time.”
“Sorry, it was tough to find a parking spot outside,” replied the driver.
Nathaniel refrained from blaming him any further.
The driver breathed a sigh of relief and led Nathaniel to the car.
However, when they arrived, the car was gone. Then, the driver spotted a parking ticket on the ground.
The car owners parked nearby complained, “They say to go in and pay before the cars were towed away. Next time, I won’t dare to park carelessly again.”
The driver paled and informed Nathaniel with a trembling voice, “Boss, our car got towed away…”
Nathaniel scowled.
The driver had braced himself to be fired, yet to his surprise, he heard Nathaniel say, “Let’s take a taxi back.”
“Huh?” The driver was taken aback.
“Don’t you know how to hail a taxi?” Nathaniel retorted.
Nathaniel was not the type to take a taxi. He had only heard about it from Cecilia. He had never been in a taxi before and thought he might try it.
“I do, and I’m going to do it now.” The driver finally felt a sense of relief in his heart. Thank goodness Mr Rainsworth has learned to he more considerate
Some time later. Cecilia was surprised to see Nathaniel return by taxi. She was still upset, watering the flowers and plants outside, when she saw Nathaniel and his driver alight from the taxi.
She was afraid she might not have seen clearly, so she took a few extra glances outside.
The driver dropped off Nathaniel at the entrance, who then entered the room alone.
The driver spotted Cecilia at the door and couldn’t help but approach her, interjecting. “Mrs. sworth, I know it might seem like I’m meddling, but I can’t hold back. Do you know how long Mr. Rainsworth stood at the hospital entrance today?”
Cecilia didn’t understand what he meant. “How long did he stand there?”
“For a solid half hour.”
Cecilia looked at the driver, even more bewildered. It’s just half an hour. What’s so significant about that?
She might not have known Nathaniel barely ever walked anywhere, let alone wait for a driver for half an hour.
Although the driver was intimidated by Nathaniel, he still respected the latter. After all, Nathaniel was generous, providing his employees with the highest wages in the industry.
“After I went to pick him up, the car was towed away.” After saying that, the driver sighed, “Mrs. Rainsworth, being abandoned like that by you is a slight Mr. Rainsworth never had to endure before.”
Upon hearing those words, Cecilia could truly only be described as speechless. He did that to me countless times in the past. Why am I supposed to think he’s pitiful for having that happened to him?
“I understand.” Cecilia didn‘
“ant to: with the driver.
When the driver was about to leave, he added one more comment. “Mrs. Rainsworth, it’s important to be understanding in a marriage. Mr. Rainsworth is blind, so please be more patient with him.”
Cecilia had always assumed that Nathaniel was incredibly annoying, that, apart from his mother, no one else could care for him.
To her surprise, the driver was genuinely concerned about him. Does Nathaniel really feel aggrieved? So much so that the driver can’t help but speak up about it?
