Pushing them aside, Nathaniel growled, “I can’t accept the punishment.
You just want me to leave, right? Fine, I’ll go!” He turned around and stormed out of the villa without looking back. His eyes were slightly red with anger.
Leon and Conor were left in shock.

Lucinda and Kyson were left alone as the two bodyguards departed.
“Finally, that nuisance is gone,” Kyson said as he poured a glass of wine for Lucinda.
“I’m so grateful that you stood up for me.”
Lucinda tried to hide the coldness she had shown during her argument with Nathaniel and showed him a gentle smile.
“Of course, he means nothing to me compared to you. You are the most important person in my life,” she said, raising her glass.
“Let’s forget about that unpleasant episode and enjoy a good drink.”

“I remember the last time we were at a bar together, you seemed to like him a lot and were very close to him. It made me quite upset,”
Kyson said, his tone becoming more serious.
He looked into her eyes and continued, “And now he’s gotten hurt defending you. You should have showed him more appreciation instead of making him angry by defending me tonight. Why?”
Lucinda was stunned.
Kyson’s smile grew brighter as he asked, “Are you perhaps just putting on a show for me?”
Lucinda stared at Kyson in disbelief.
She sounded a little sad when she asked, “You don’t believe me?”
Kyson chuckled.
