“Alright, thanks,” Lucinda said before ending the call.

He sat up, turned his back to her, and said bitterly, “It wasn’t sent to me. If you want to open it, go ahead and do as you please.”
Lucinda was left stunned by his response.
She playfully poked him on the back and asked, “Are you angry?”
“No at all. You’re simply so caught up thinking about your old friend that you don’t even have time to put your fiance, who’s about to become your husband, to sleep. Why should I be mad?”
Lucinda clicked her tongue and teased, “Aw, feeling jealous?”
Furrowing his brow, Nathan closed his eyes, choosing not to respond.
“Honey, don’t be jealous. There’s nothing more important to me than you. I’ll open the package tomorrow. Besides, you’ve had a long day Of course, I need to make sure my big teddy bear falls asleep first!”
Her voice oozed with tenderness as she gently patted his shoulder, trying to comfort him.
Nathan felt reassured by her words. With a satisfied smile, he turned over and rested his head in her arms. However, a slight unease nagged at him.
“Wait, big teddy bear?”
Lucinda planted a ki*s on his cheek.
“Oh, you must have misheard. I said Nate.”
That sounded more like it.
He hugged her tightly again and soon drifted off to sleep.
