Kyson didn’t spare him a glance.
The heat in the room was on, so it was a lot hotter than it was outside. Kyson took out his coat and gave to his subordinate before walking towards Lucinda.
That was when Lucinda looked up at his handsome face and immediately recalled who it was.
With surprise in her eyes, she called in a soft voice, “Kyson?”
Kyson smiled back in reply.
Alvina and Tess watched the scene with wide eyes.
Nathaniel too was shocked.
What the hell?
He was worried that Lucinda would be attracted to Kyson since he was handsome, but to his surprise, they already knew each other.
To make things worse, she called him so intimately.
Nathaniel bit his lower lip until it almost bled.
Kyson went to Lucinda, looking at her with soft eyes. He raised his hand to touch her.
Seeing that Lucinda had no intentions of moving away from Kyson’s touch, Nathaniel grabbed her arm, diverting her attention to him.

“What’s wrong?” Lucinda asked with a frown.
As if on command, tears welled up in his eyes.
“Lucinda, it hurts…”
Lucinda’s frown deepened, and then she noticed the bite marks on his lower lip and how pale he looked. He wasn’t pretending this time.
“Where does it hurt?” she asked.
Surprised that she was receptive this time, Nathaniel raised his arms and showed her his wrists.
“My wrists hurt.”
The handcuffs had left red marks on his wrists which were now swollen.
When he showed her this instead, the pity Lucinda had started to feel for him instantly flew away.
Did he forget that she was also in handcuffs? He did that to himself!
Why was he pretending to be weak again?
