“Nate!” she burst into tears, sobbing pitifully.
“I just couldn’t accept it, okay? You and Lucinda are divorced, but you still care about her so much! You never let me move into that villa! You didn’t even let me come close! Then you actually gave her that fucking villa!
When she humiliated me at the banquet, you did nothing! When she hired those men to beat me-to rape me-what did you do?
Nate! I hate her. I really fucking hate her! I just want to teach her a lesson. Is that so wrong?”
She threw herself into his arms and tried to play the victim card so that he’d forgive her, but he drew away from her with a disgusted frown.
“I’ll ask you one last time. Where is Lucinda?”
Nathaniel’s tone was so forceful that Eleanor fell silent for a moment, not knowing what to say.

“Don’t you love me? Am I even less important to you than your ex-wife?”
Eleanor sobbed, still clinging to the victim card.
“I am your fiancee!
Why are you so cruel to me? She hurt me! I can’t believe you’d let her treat me like this!”
Without saying anything, he stood up, looking at her wearily.
“You used to be so kind. But now, you’re just a disappointment.”
Nathaniel then strode out of the ward, leaving her sobbing hysterically.
Occasionally, a few nurses would pass by the corridor, but as soon as they heard the crazed cries from Eleanor’s ward, they’d turn around and scurry away quickly.
When Nathaniel found a quiet corner, he took out his phone and made a call.
“Jaxen, find out where Lucinda is. Do it now!”

Lucinda was driving at full speed through the suburbs when her car’s navigation system directed her to a shortcut to Stoney Mountain.
She deliberately chose a path without any traffic lights and surveillance cameras.
Rolling down the window, she felt the wind whizzing past her ears.
It was an exhilarating feeling.
Unfortunately, she wasn’t out here for fun and games. Her friend’s life was on the line, so she wasn’t in the mood to enjoy the beautiful countryside scenery.
She stepped hard on the gas and the engine revved loudly, keeping her grounded.
Just then, her phone rang. Seeing that it was the same unknown number from earlier, she answered it and put it on speaker.
