Cyrus fell silent instantly.
Graham then turned to his two brothers.
“Both of you don’t seem surprised by this news. It seems you already knew. Lucinda, you only hid it from me. How do you plan on resolving this?”
Seated on the sofa beside Graham, Cyrus remained silent but raised two fingers as a reminder to Graham of Lucinda’s twin pregnancy.
This victory-like sign provoked Graham to the core.
Graham reached his breaking point.
Without hesitation, he delivered a hard kick before Cyrus could lower his hand.
“It’s been a while since I’ve taught you a good lesson.
Are you trying to provoke me and get disciplined now?”
“Ouch!”

Cyrus rubbed his aching knee, perspiring heavily.
He looked at Lucinda and said, “I have helped you bear the brunt of his initial anger. I did my best!
“Thank you, Cyrus! But perhaps don’t speak further for now. I’m really afraid he will beat you to death!”
Cyrus nodded.
Cyrus nodded, choosing to remain silent in an effort to diminish his presence.
Violeta smiled and tried to convince her husband.
“Graham, since Lucinda is pregnant, punishing her now is pointless. I know you’re just worried about her and still angry at Nathan. Find a way to punish him instead. What do you think?”
Lucinda’s anxiety heightened.
Why did Violeta share Hilliard’s sentiment? Both of them wanted to see Nathan punished.
Dealing with Hilliard alone would be challenging enough, but now, with the entire family seeking retribution against Nathan, Lucinda doubted he could withstand it.
Just as Lucinda began to fidget, Nathan stepped forward and calmly said, “I’m willing to accept any punishment you all decide, but please, spare Lucinda.”
“No!” They were even scarier than he’d imagined!
“Well, if you’re so insistent, I’ll agree to your marriage with her on one condition,” Graham sneered.
Nathan smirked and locked eyes with Graham.
