Pierre saw him and greeted him with a smile.
“Mr. Roberts, what a coincidence!”
Nathaniel’s expression remained cold as he said, “It’s not a coincidence. I’m here for you.”
Pierre’s face gradually turned serious as he stared at Nathaniel.
Nathaniel and Pierre went to a quiet corner near the back door of the villa.
“Mr. Roberts, why all the secrecy? Is something wrong?” Pierre asked.
“You don’t have to pretend in front of me. I know you want something from Lucinda. What is it?”
‘s
Pierre’s mask instantly fell and was replaced with a sneer.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Roberts, but you shouldn’t have found that out,” he said, discreetly taking out a small knife from the back of his trousers. Then, he swiftly waved his hand with the knife for Nathaniel’s neck, but Nathaniel saw him coming and stepped back with ease.
In no time, he had subdued Pierre.
He clamped Pierre’s hands behind his back and held it there with so much force that Pierre felt like his arms would be dislocated. He winced, his face pale with pain.
“You might as well just kill me. I can’t even do what they asked of me, so my death is inevitable,” Pierre grunted.
Nathaniel Laughed at this and roughly let go of him.
“Why would I kill you? I just want to talk with you. I have no interest in anything else.”
Pierre frowned, confused.

“Aren’t you supposed to be madly in love with Miss Lucinda? I mean, I was sent to hurt her. You know what my aim is, yet, you just want to talk to me?”
“That’s right.” Nathaniel stared at him seriously and asked, “You like her, don’t you?”
Pierre instantly blushed.
“No, no… How can I?”
Nathaniel was always right when it came to this. His intuition was never wrong.
Ever since he realized that he loved Lucinda, he seemed to have developed the ability to know it when a man had a crush on Lucinda just by looking at the man’s eyes.
“If you didn’t like her, you wouldn’t have hidden yourself for so long without making a single move against her. You can stop hiding.
Just tell me what their plan is. Maybe I can help you out.”
Pierre paused for a second and actually looked at Nathaniel, noticing something strong and intimidating about him.
