His rationality was overshadowed by the events at the banquet.

“If you won’t help her, it doesn’t matter. I’ll save her myself. I have authority over my shares in the Simmons Group.”
Cyrus was about to turn around, but his words further stoked Lucinda’s fury. Without hesitation, she delivered a resounding slap to his face.
Pak!
The sound echoed through the room.
The sharp slap left an imprint on his face. He stared at her in shock and disbelief.
Nathan also stood frozen in surprise.
Rubbing his stinging cheek, Cyrus demanded angrily, “Lucinda Simmons, you just slapped me?”
Meeting his enraged gaze, Lucinda lifted her chin defiantly.

With a stern expression, she assumed an air of authority.
Despite the fact that Cyrus was seething with anger, he remained silent.
Seeing that he had regained some composure, she continued, “Cyrus, you’re intelligent enough to devise a better solution. Take some time to calm down and reflect. Until you regain your composure, I forbid you from leaving this villa.”
“You want to imprison me up here?” He was stunned and disappointed.
“We’re family. ‘Imprisonment’ is too harsh a word. You’re simply grounded as a consequence of your outburst.”

“Understood,” Nathan replied, holding back a chuckle. If Cyrus were to get hurt, Lucinda would undoubtedly be the one most troubled by it.
Lucinda turned to Cyrus, asserting herself, “I’m the head of the family now. Everyone must listen to what I say. Defying my authority will result in punishment as per our family’s rules. Don’t expect me to go easy on you.”
Cyrus responded with a dismissive snort, “Do you think I’m scared of your punishments?”
She raised an eyebrow and said in a cold tone, “You should be scared.
