She snorted. Her eyes shone and she looked determined and a bit arrogant.
“Train me?”
Raising his eyebrows, he said, “Okay. Then I’ll just wait and see.”
Their gazes met.
They were both filled with a strong desire to conquer the other.
It was getting late, and Lucinda returned to doing her makeup.
With Nathan’s help, she selected the perfect colors for her eye shadow, blush, and lipstick, and the tension between them dissipated.
“Do you need me to help with today’s activity?”
“No. This is my company, and it is the first I have built without my family’s help. I’ll establish Angle Intl’s reputation in Stastle myself, and I’ll become the richest woman in the country, even richer than you!”
Lucinda declared with an ambitious and arrogant tone.
Nathan couldn’t help but stare at her. He then said, “Actually, there’s a quick way to become the richest woman in the country. Do you want to know what it is?”
Curious, Lucinda looked at him expectantly.
“If you get married to me, all my assets will be yours.”
Lucinda playfully poked him on the forehead, having already anticipated his response.
“Nice try! You’re not getting off that easy. Just because we’re engaged doesn’t mean that I’ll automatically get married to you. You still have a lot to prove, and you haven’t even won over my brothers yet.”

But Nathan wasn’t ready to give up.
“I’m up for the challenge.”
Lucinda patted him on the shoulder and feigned seriousness.
“You better put in hard work if you want to earn the right to marry me.”
Before she took her leave, she told Nathan to stay in the villa to have a good rest. Then she hurried to Angle Intl.
Lucinda arrived early at Angle Intl. to prepare for the ceremony.
There were just the employees there so it was still very quiet.
She went over the entire process and waited patiently.
The ceremony would was to commence by half past nine a.m. She stood at the door until 9:10. No one had showed up.
