As she printed out and read through the files, her expression grew increasingly cold.
The information indicated that Nathan had indeed traveled to Huokgate a few months prior.
The Payne family had no business operations in Huokgate, so the only plausible reason for his visit was to undergo plastic surgery.
Did Nathan lie to her last night?
While lost in thought, Leon knocked on the door and entered.
“Miss Simmons, Sonny just came by and said that Master Nathan invited you to have dinner at his villa after work and that he would cook. Will you go?”
“Yes,”
Lucinda answered without hesitation.
Investigating Nathan’s true identity was no easy task, so she decided to go and confront him directly.

Lucinda tidied up the table, put the documents in her bag, grabbed her coat, glanced at Leon, and said, “I’m heading to his place now.”
Leon was taken aback, but quickly followed her as she made her way out.
Upon arriving at the Payne estate, Lucinda couldn’t recall the way to Nathan’s villa, so she requested Kern to accompany her once more.
Sonny and several bodyguards were already waiting when Lucinda arrived.
On seeing her, they respectfully bowed their heads. Sonny then greeted her respectfully, “Miss Simmons, long time no see.”
“Not at all! I saw you the last time I came to this villa.”
Feeling uneasy, Sonny shifted his focus.
“Master Nathan is inside. Please come in,” he said, hoping to redirect the conversation.
Lucinda looked away and walked towards the building on her own.
As soon as they entered, Sonny whispered to Lucinda, “There’s an emergency task for Master Nathan tonight.
After dinner with you, he has to leave the city immediately for the mission. It’s going to be a real battle.”
“What do you mean?” Lucinda asked, looking at him with confusion.
Suppressing his urge to explain, Sonny felt despondent. He let out a silent sigh and said, “Nothing, just go inside.”
Despite her confusion, Lucinda didn’t press Sonny for an explanation and decided not to make things difficult for him.
Walking alone towards the villa’s entrance, Lucinda raised her hand to knock, only to find the door slightly ajar and not fully closed.
