Nathan tried to move and sit up, only to realize that his hands and feet were all tied up. His face showed immediate confusion which then turned to anger.
“Let go of me! I want to see Lucinda!” He tried to struggle and stubbornly pull his hands up.
Watching how the man helplessly struggled, Cyrus sighed and said, “I’ve told you that she’s not here. Can you just take the medicine now? Don’t fight it! The more you resist, the more pain you’ll endure. Hilliard has tied you down tightly.”
But Nathan paid no attention, persisting in his resistance. He did not look like he had listened to a word Cyrus had just said.
Anger consumed his gaze, clouding his judgment. He clenched his fists as the veins in his arms angrily bulged out while his wrists and ankles turned red and swollen.
Cyrus found himself at a loss for words. He couldn’t help but ask, “Have you lost your mind? Stop struggling! Stop it right now or else I’ll have Hilliard force the medicine on you!”
“Call Lucinda. Put her on speaker. I want to hear it from her,”
Nathan demanded, his eyes frantic.
Cyrus furrowed his brows.
After glancing at his watch, he realized that she was still currently on the plane. There was no way they would be able to reach her at the moment.
“If I can’t see her, I refuse to take the medicine, even if it costs me my life!” Nathan roared.
His wrists were already blistered and bleeding, staining the ropes with his own blood.
When Cyrus noticed the blood, his breath slightly hitched.
Nathan had been persisting in this manner, and they couldn’t restrain him every single day. Lucinda would definitely be furious if she sees the man’s wounds.

Cyrus felt a sense of helplessness and frustration, running his fingers through his hair.
This task had become truly agonizing, torturous even. As he stared at the crazy man on the bed, he let out a huff of frustration.
“Nathan! Enough of this madness! She’s currently on the plane. How can she answer the phone? Besides, if you harm yourself, it will only make her sad! What am I supposed to do with you? Can’t you try to think rationally?” he pleaded.
“Why is Lucinda on the plane? Where has she gone?” Nathan’s voice trembled with a mix of anger and concern.
“You’re so curious, aren’t you?” Cyrus grinned mischievously.
“Well, if you cooperate and do as I say, I’ll untie you and even reveal Lucinda’s location. Deal?”
The angry man on the bed suddenly fell silent, his chest heaving from the intense struggle he had just endured.
Seeing this, Cyrus let out a sigh of relief.
The only way to keep Nathan in check was to dangle the promise of Lucinda before him.
“Stay still! Don’t make any sudden moves. If you try to escape or start a fight with me again, forget about ever finding out where she is!” Cyrus warned, his tone laced with a stern edge.
