“Absolutely, Mr. Payne. I’ll address this with her and make sure it doesn’t happen again,” Sonny responded respectfully.

With a gentle smile, Sonny intervened, leading Luisa away from Lucinda’s side.

Luisa pouted and muttered, “Lucinda, I promise I’ll share the story with you next time. It’s quite an intriguing tale.”
Lucinda smiled.

“Alright, look forward to it.”
The four of them engaged in a conversation for a while. Eventually, the time came for Lucinda and Nathan to make their way to the business party.
Before they took their leave, Lucinda made a few more checks to ensure the security of their villa.
Nathan, in a gesture to ease her concerns, arranged for Sonny to bring along a contingent of soldiers to stand guard. These upright soldiers encircled the house.
They resembled an impregnable fortress wall, a sight that was awe-inspiring from afar.
The day of the business party came.
It was held at the 98th floor of the Gentti hotel, and the roster of guests consisted of big shots in the business circle and other high society personalities in Stastle.
Lucinda and Nathan arrived at the venue hand in hand. As they were about to enter the main hall, Mekhi and Noelle happened to exit the elevator on the other side of the corridor.
They met up at the entrance of the banquet hall.
Nathan was Mekhi’s immediate superior. Mekhi bowed respectfully and offered a polite greeting.
“Good evening, Mr. Payne.”
Nathan merely nodded in response.
As for Noelle, she almost bolted forward toward Lucinda, but Mekhi was able to hold her back at the last second.
“Noelle, there are a lot of people around us. You should pay more attention to your manners.”
Her plans to speak with Lucinda had been thwarted. Noelle could only lower her head in despair.
Seeing her unnatural reaction, Lucinda broke away from Nathan and approached Noelle. She took the latter’s hand and gave Mekhi an apologetic look.
“Please excuse us, Mr. Shaw. I would like her to accompany me to the washroom. We will be back in a few minutes. That should be fine, right?”
Mekhi narrowed his eyes at Nathan for one brief second before smiling at Lucinda.
“Of course. How can I refuse when you asked so nicely?”
Lucinda didn’t waste any more time and pulled Noelle to the nearest washroom, leaving the men to wait for them at the entrance of the banquet hall.
