Lucinda wasn’t aware of his thoughts, but she felt a sense of relief as she saw him finally put an end to this nonsense.
She found great pleasure in seeing him act obedient.

“Fine, okay. I’ll keep quiet…” he yielded, suppressing his anger and allowing her to do as she pleased with his hair.
After some time, Lucinda rubbed her aching wrist. She couldn’t believe how exhausted she felt after helping him take a shower. Who would have thought that such a simple task would leave her with a sore wrist?
She realized that being drenched while bathing him meant she had to take her bath too.
Suppressing her anger, she lifted Nathan out of the tub when he was done.
