Her instincts told her that he wasn’t lying.
“Just tell me what you mean!”
Kyson shook his head, still smiling.
It irked Lucinda, but she couldn’t do anything else to him.
He was still the director of the Secret Investigation Department, after all, and held a high position in Cadiered’s military. She wasn’t planning to cause unnecessary trouble for herself and Graham just because the bastard annoyed her.
She turned on her heel and walked out of the room.
Nathaniel approached her as soon as the door slammed shut behind her.
“How was it? Did he tell you what you needed to know?”
Lucinda shook her head.
“Forget it. All I was able to confirm was that he colluded with someone to try to kill me. I’ll find another way to investigate the rest of the matter. Tell Sonny and the others to destroy all the evidence. Don’t leave a single trace. Send Kyson back in secret tomorrow.”
This didn’t sit well with Nathaniel at all.
Lucinda might have the luxury to draw things out, but he didn’t. He was running out of time.
“Lucinda, if you trust me even a little bit, then allow me to handle this. I will get the truth out of him within two days.”
“You know who he is, don’t you? Are you really going to do this?”
Lucinda looked up at him with a serious expression.

“You were the one who hit his face, right? If you torture him, the whole Secret Investigation Department and the Shaw family will come after you.”
Nathaniel smiled. He didn’t seem to take her words to heart.
“Don’t worry. I will deal with this matter properly.”
They locked gazes and stared into each other’s eyes for a moment.
Lucinda pressed her lips into a thin line. She didn’t know why, but she felt the urge to trust Nathaniel.
“ALL right, fine. You can give it a go.”
She thought back to the last words Kyson had said to her.
“Let’s go back to the villa.”
“You can head back first. I’ll stay here and make arrangements.”
