After pondering for a while, Nathan remained silent and watched her exit the room.
Lucinda spent the following day with him in the villa.
Sonny didn’t have the opportunity to apologize to his boss.
He was restless and couldn’t get himself to sleep for two consecutive nights. On the third day, when Lucinda went to work, he took charge of supervising Nathan’s medication intake at noon.
Seriously nervous, he knocked on the door of the study.
“Come in.”
From Nathan’s calm and composed voice, it was difficult to tell if he was still angry.
Sonny took a deep breath, cautiously opened the door, and approached Nathan with heavy steps.
Nathan ceased his work and cast a cold, piercing gaze at Sonny.
Trembling, Sonny mustered a forced smile.
“Sir, two nights ago, you…
Are you alright?”

“I’m fine. Thanks to you, she struck my palm forty times.” Nathan’s handsome face remained cold and somber as he squarely placed the blame on Sonny.
Sonny let out a heavy breath. Just imagining the pain from being struck on the palm was unbearable.

Before Sonny could burst into tears and plead for mercy, Nathan continued, “I’ve heard about a small country called Burtosland. They are currently recruiting a large number of miners. I believe you would make a fine miner. How about I arrange for your assignment to BurtosLand?”
“What? No!”
After he heard this, Sonny dropped to his knees, clutched Nathan’s strong thighs, and exclaimed, “Sir, don’t! The fault is all mine. Why don’t you hit me to let out your anger? I don’t want to go to Burtosland! Even in death, I won’t leave your side! We’ve worked together for so many years, and I’ve done so much for you. Can you give me another chance to make things right?”
As he finished his plea, he wiped his eyes with spit, pretending it was tears. His face was filled with genuine remorse, and he wailed.
The same old trick?
Nathan was grossed out by Sonny’s theatrics and lightly kicked him away.
“I won’t leave! I’d rather die than go there. Sir, why not just kill me? It would be an honor to die at your hands!
Sonny clung tightly to Nathan’s leg, refusing to let go no matter how hard he tried to shake him off.
Nathan was rendered speechless, but he couldn’t help but burst into laughter at Sonny’s shameless tactics.
“You son of a bitch! If you don’t want to go to Burtosland to mine, just leave here. And don’t disturb me for the next few days! Get out of here right now!” he seethed.
