But five minutes had passed, and he was still not finished.
Sensing something was off, Lucinda gritted her teeth and threatened Nathan, “If you ruin my make-up, I’ll cut off your hands!”
Nathan paused and withdrew his hand in fear.
Lucinda opened her eyes, shooting a look at Nathan before turning to examine her face in the mirror.
She let out a surprised snort as she saw that her eyebrows were expertly shaped.

“I swear, you’re the first and only woman I’ve ever helped with makeup,” he said, looking directly into her eyes with sincerity.
Lucinda stared at his handsome face and touched his cheek.
She couldn’t help but remember all the lies he had told her before.
With a sudden pinch, she declared, “You’re a sly one, Nathan. Your schemes may work on others, but it won’t work on me. Sooner or later, I’d have to train you to be a devoted husband!”
