The phone rang persistently, but there was no answer.
Growing concerned, Nathan opened MSN to send Lucinda several messages.
He waited a few minutes but received no response.
If Lucinda happened to be in a meeting, shed probably end Nathans call abruptly. With some uncertainty, Nathan opted to dial the Simmons Group assistant instead.
The assistant answered immediately. Nathan inquired, Where is Lucinda?
Miss Simmons is resting in her office and has requested not to be disturbed, the assistant informed him.

.
Nathan felt relieved, responding, Thats good to hear.
After ending the call, Nathan quickly gathered his belongings, took the elevator, and drove his luxurious car to the Simmons Group.
When he got there, darkness had completely fallen.
Being the husband of the Simmons Groups CEO, Nathan had unrestricted access throughout the company and effortlessly reached the executive office on the top floor.
The assistant greeted him with a polite bow and gestured for him to enter.
Lucinda had given strict instructions not to be disturbed.
However, her instructions applied to all the people in the business world-employees, allies, and partners. Nathan, on the other hand, was probably an exception.
This was the assistants perspective on the matter.
Once Nathan arrived, the assistant decided not to interfere with the bosses time in the office. So, the assistant neatly arranged her desk and left.
Nathan quietly entered the office, turned on the light, and found it empty.
Lucinda? Nathan called out softly, and upon noticing the closed door of the rest area with the light still on, he approached.
As the door to the rest area creaked open, the interior scene came into view.
The room was in total disarray, with decorations strewn about, and the rooms books were scattered everywhere. Some of the pages had even been torn.
Entering the room, Nathan was taken aback.
