They got to the car and Lucinda sat in the driver’s seat while Dwayne sat in the passenger’s seat.
Lucinda noticed a change in him. He looked timid and defeated, a far cry from the energetic and arrogant young man he usually was.
She was baffled. She hadn’t seen him in just a few days. What was wrong with him?!
She couldn’t help but ask, “Did your grandfather punish you again?
Did he beat you badly this time? Let me see.”
As Lucinda spoke, she made a move to pull his pants.
Dwayne blushed and quickly pushed her away.
“No! I’m not a kid anymore. You can’t just strip off my pants.”
Lucinda scrutinized his face, trying to find some clue as to what had happened. He had rushed back to the car, so he didn’t seem to be hurt in any way.
And he had been working hard on the shooting recently, so it was unlikely that he would have the time to get into trouble.
“You’ve always been a spoiled brat, but this time, you suffered losses because of that scum Ramsey. What’s going on with you?” she asked with concern.
Dwayne lowered his head and muttered softly, “I’m sorry. I know you don’t like it when I act haughtily. So I’ve been trying to do better.
Please give me some more time. I’m sure I’ll come to be the type of man you desire.”

Lucinda was taken aback by his words but didn’t agree with any of it.
“Why do you have to change? Just because of my choices of men? Is it worth it?”
Dwayne nodded resolutely and said, “It’s worth it if it means I can earn your love.”
“But I don’t deserve that kind of sacrifice,” Lucinda protested.
She furrowed her brows and spoke with a serious tone.

“Look, everyone in this world is unique. You don’t have to change who you are for anyone, or bow down to anyone. The only way to truly show your personal charm is by being yourself.”
Back then, she was foolish to believe that if she dedicated herself to Nathaniel, she could make him fall in love with her.
But what did she get at last?
Shame, mockery, sadness, and suffering.
However, she was determined to get revenge and make him experience the same pain she had endured.
Having gone through the agony herself, she didn’t want her friends to make the same mistake.
