His complexion was slightly pale, and he looked a little worn out, due to the drug he was injected with.
Lucinda was momentarily stunned. She didn’t see those words coming from Nathaniel.
“To gain my trust, you’re willing to say anything.” She was skeptical.
“I know you wouldn’t believe me now. In the future, you will figure out that I didn’t lie to you.”
She pinched Nathaniel’s chin with a sneer.
“I despise deceit the most.
You used to detest and mistreat me, but at least that was genuine.
If I discover that you lied to me, I won’t let it slide easily.”
Nathaniel was at a loss for words.
He knew that what he had said was the absolute truth.
Lucinda released his chin and returned her gaze to the list.
“What should I do with these loyal employees?” she asked.
Nathaniel let out a sigh.
“They’ve been working for the Roberts Group for years so you can’t just fire them all. People are self-centered.

Lucinda was still trying to make sense of Nathaniel’s request.

“So you want me to act like I didn’t see this list?”
Nathaniel nodded in agreement.
“With this list, you can have a clear goal to strive towards. You can reward them appropriately, but at the same time, keep an eye on them if necessary.”
Lucinda pondered this for a while, but she couldn’t bring herself to believe Nathaniel’s words.
“So you made Alexis and Marvin to write this list just so you can give it to me?” she asked.
“Yes, if you didn’t come here now, I was planning to give it to you personally when I returned home tonight. You happened to come by and have nearly misunderstood me…”
The corners of his mouth twitched slightly while he spoke. He Looked a bit sad.
Lucinda wasn’t convinced yet. She paid no mind to the expression on his face and asked, “You can’t be giving me this list for nothing, right?” she asked, eyeing Nathaniel suspiciously.
