Graham stated in a cold tone, “He deceived you. You can’t let go of the pain he has caused you during your three years of marriage just like that. That’s it! I’ll call off your engagement with him right away!”
“Nol”
Lucinda wrapped her arms around Nathan’s neck as she added, “He did hurt me before, but I’ve avenged myself. Also, he saved me three times in Forden. Without him, I wouldn’t have a chance of making it back to Stastle alive. Cyrus has already forgiven him. Can’t you do the same?”
Graham’s eyes swept over her, but he said nothing.
His lack of rebuttal indicated that he was wavering. So, Lucinda continued, “Both of our families have approved of my engagement to him. You won’t be able to cancel it easily.”
“That’s not a problem. Just say the word, and I’ll pay three hundred billion to cancel your engagement with him.”
Pouting, Lucinda replied in a soft voice, “But I want to be with him, Graham.”
With his heart filled with joy, Nathan looked intently at her.
Graham’s lips formed a thin line.
Lucinda hugged his arm and rubbed her cheek on it like a cat.
“I’m serious.”
Graham looked at his wife, who nodded at him with an approving smile on her face.
He then sighed and said reluctantly, “Fine. I’ll give him a second chance. However, you must promise me that you won’t marry him behind everyone’s back and won’t sleep with him until you’re wed. If you do either of those things, I’ll break your legs. Do you understand?”
Lucinda looked at him with wide eyes and swallowed.
She cursed inwardly. She had done it with Nathan already.
What should she do now? Graham would not really break her legs, would he?
Meanwhile, Nathan Looked away from Graham.
Graham looked back and forth between the two, wondering why Lucinda did not respond. It only took him seconds to recognize the telltale signs of guilt on her face.
“Did you marry him in secret?”

Lucinda shook her head frantically.
“No! I would never do that!”
“So, you’ve slept with him,” Graham snarled.
“I. We did it when we got married for the first time. Does that count?” Lucinda avoided making eye contact with her brother and bit her lower Lip nervously.
“You didn’t tell him who you were back then, and you two filed for divorce. Also, I’m not talking about the past. I’m talking about the present.”
