Should he tell her the truth now?
Would she think he planned all this and was lying to her from day one?
Lucinda hated liars the most. She already hated him before. She would detest him even more and probably not forgive him if she found out he lied to her.
“Why didn’t you just come to me if you’re still alive? Why did you have to pretend to be someone else? What happened? Answer me, Nathaniel! Explain it to me because I don’t understand why you’re doing this!”
Lucinda tightened her hold on his collar. Her eyes were filled with shock, confusion, and anger as she glared at him.
“Miss Simmons, I.
“What did you just call me?”
With a snarl, Lucinda let go of his collar and punched Nathan in the stomach.
“Ow!”
Nathan’s body sagged, and his face contorted in pain. Before he could recover, she fisted his collar and shoved him against the window pane once more.
It was not that he lacked the physical ability to defend himself; rather, he was worried that doing so might cause unnecessary harm to her.
Obviously, Lucinda did not share the same sentiment because she used all her strength when she punched him.
She gave him a murderous look. Her rationality was almost leaving her.
The thought that Nathaniel was still alive was all she could focus on.

Why, then, did he not just go to her?
Did he not recognize her?
“You’re still not going to admit it? Fine! I’ll find out who you really are myself.”
To Nathan’s horror, Lucinda reached for his mask to take it off.
He clutched his mask securely as he hurriedly said, “Miss Simmons, we only just met. I don’t think it’s appropriate for you to touch me.”
“You’re my fiance. I can’t find any reason why I can’t touch you.
Why won’t you let me see your face? If you’re really not Nathaniel, then why are you so nervous?”
Lucinda did not give him a chance to argue with her. She struck him square in the stomach for the second time that day.
Using his pain to her advantage, she swiftly removed his mask.
When their eyes met, Lucinda let out a surprised gasp.
