It was a cold night in late autumn, and the only thing he had on was a thin white shirt.
His face was already pale. Even when sweeping the yard like a servant, Nathaniel still looked dignified and powerful.
In her room on the third floor, Lucinda didn’t turn on the Lights.
She stood quietly by the window and watched him with an unreadable expression.
A few minutes later, she looked away and went to bed.
Nathaniel finally finished cleaning up the yard at two o’clock in the morning.
He woke up the next day with a cold. After staying in the cold for so long and with such thin clothing, it was inevitable.
When Lucinda got out of bed the next day, she heard a cough from downstairs.
After taking a shower and fixing her makeup, she went downstairs and saw a tall figure walking around in the kitchen, and breakfast on the table.
Nathaniel knew that Lucinda would be up already. So everytime he coughed, he covered his mouth with his hand and tried to keep it down.
However, Lucinda observed him from the stairs for a while. She pursed her lips and walked downstairs quietly.
When Nathaniel heard the footsteps, he turned around and saw Lucinda looking so thin. She only had on only a black velvet top and a snow-white gauze skirt.
Quickly, he grabbed a coat from the coat hanger and helped her put it on.
“The weather is getting colder. You should keep yourself warm even when you’re at home.”
She didn’t say anything, but just looked at him.

“You can take the day off and rest if you’re not feeling too good.”
Nathaniel paused for a second before nodding.
“Okay.”
Once she was warmly dressed, he pulled out a chair for her. Lucinda sat and had her breakfast in silence.
As they ate, they heard bodyguards laughing outside.
Almost recovered from their injuries, Abel and Rickey were just discharged from the hospital. Except for some bruises on his face, Pierre was also good to go.
Lucinda asked them to come in, and the three men walked into the Living room.
They were about the same height and build. They all had long legs and narrow waists. Pierre looked more tanned than the rest, but they were all good-looking.
