“It seems we share the same thoughts. Perhaps husband and wife are truly connected.”
“Don’t be so garrulous. Your sweet words won’t sway me,” Lucinda teased, pretending to be annoyed.

“You are carrying my babies. Even if you get tired of me, you can’t escape me for the rest of your life!”

The following day, Crosby was removed from the board. Lucinda made sure his personal record reflected his betrayal, framing his boss and stealing confidential company information. He was also required to compensate for the losses he caused.
No reputable company would ever hire him again, and he would face the consequences of his actions during his retirement.
Once the other directors learned the truth, they realized they had been deceived by Lucinda during the previous meeting. Nevertheless, since she had resolved the situation impeccably, they had no means of retaliation.
With the wedding day drawing near, Lucinda was thrilled and inquisitive.
“Nate, what have you prepared for the wedding?”
As Nathan peeled an apple for her, he wore a mysterious smile.
“I’ve been planning our wedding for over half a month. You’ll love it.”
She leaned closer and ki*sed him.
“The wedding is in two days. Can’t you give me a hint about what it’s like?”
“Nope, that would ruin the surprise,” Nathan declined firmly.
Fine, Lucinda didn’t push further and patiently waited for him to finish peeling the apple and feed it to her.
Just as he was about to finish, Abel hurriedly appeared at the door, his face distressed.

Ignoring the minor injury, he quickly concealed his wounded finger behind his back.
