As his eyes opened, he found her face mere inches away from his.
Instantly, a sense of calm and sheer happiness washed over him.
Nathan pulled her into his arms, gently pressed her beneath him, and passionately claimed her lips in a ki*s.
The mingling of their breaths brought him immense joy, captivating his senses entirely.
After the ki*s, he settled on his side, propping himself up with his left hand. He then tenderly brushed the tip of Lucinda’s nose with his right hand and fixed his gaze on her with unwavering intensity.
“If only I could keep you locked away, where you’d only see me and smile at me forever.”
“What nonsense are you babbling about?” Lucinda furrowed her brow, feigning annoyance as she patted his back.
She proceeded to trail her fingers teasingly along his back, tracing gentle patterns.
“Miss Simmons, Mr. Myers is waiting for you outside for the dinner appointment. Are you ready to go?”
Vivian knocked on the door, noticing it was slightly ajar. She pushed it open and entered, only to be met with the unexpected intimate scene on the sofa.

“Oops! My bad! I’m sorry!”
Vivian swiftly spun around, shielding her eyes, her heart still racing.
She couldn’t believe what she just saw.
Nathan, the stern and aloof head of the Payne family, allowed Lucinda to playfully pinch his butt in private?
The thought made her mind reel.
Blushing, Lucinda was about to get up from her seat but found herself pulled back into Nathan’s arms.
Nathan sported a mischievous smile as he complained in a low, husky voice, “She caught you red-handed, bullying me. Baby, what do you think I should do?”
Bullying Him?
Lucinda was taken aback by the accusation and gritted her teeth.
“You indeed have a way with twisting things around…”
“No, I’m don’t.”
Nathan frowned with displeasure, leaned down again, and ki*sed her.
Vivian, who was standing at the door, was in a panic.
Would stumbling upon this scene cost her her job?
