Nathan didn’t say anything for a long time after that. Lucinda was beginning to think he wouldn’t say anything when he suddenly said in a hoarse voice, “I don’t like children. So, it’s not a big deal if you can’t give me some. Besides, I’m always so busy with work that sex won’t be a concern for me. Don’t fret over it.”
Lucinda wasn’t sure she had heard him correctly.
How could he sacrifice his sex life? And for what?
Lucinda was really perplexed. The Payne family could choose another woman for Nathan. Why the hell was he so adamant?
She took a deep breath to calm down and asked slowly, “Clearly, you are satisfied with this engagement. Was it your decision or that of your grandfather to get engaged to me?”
“It was my grandfather’s decision, and I have no reason to refute it,” he answered casually.
What the hell?
Lucinda could feel her anger rising.
He was simply being obedient to his grandpa?
No way! She simply couldn’t stand this anymore.
Maybe it was premature, but she already hated Nathan very much.

The first impression he had left on her was the worst.
She wasn’t sure she could keep talking without Losing her anger. So she stood up, smoothed her skirt and said toughly, “The truth, Master Nathan, is that I have feelings for another man, and because of that, I can’t accept this engagement. You may have no problem with the other issues, but surely, you wouldn’t want a woman by your side who is in love with some other man, right? Well, just so you know, I will break this engagement off sooner or later. I will be grateful and indebted to you if you help out and convince your grandfather to change his mind. Now that everything is said, I’ll take my leave now.”
After one last glance at Nathan’s back, she left without looking back.
Throughout their conversation, Nathan didn’t for one second turn around.

She didn’t know how his heart broke when she said she had feelings for another man.
So soon? Nathan’s sighed in dejection.
Lucinda went downstairs, walked through the yard and towards the gate when she saw a familiar figure from the corner of her eye.
As soon as she turned to look fully, the person hurriedly hid.
Was that Sonny?
But if it was indeed Sonny, he would stop and greet her, wouldn’t he?
Why would he hide after seeing her?
Lucinda was finding a lot of things strange today.
She didn’t drink today, so she couldn’t even blame it on alcohol.
