“Miss Simmons…”
Leon didn’t even know what to do. This was the first time that he saw Lucinda lose her temper. He was so scared that he stepped back.
Lucinda finally looked up at him and said coldly, “Let’s go to the villa.”
Leon got in the driver seat. He didn’t think it would be wise to let her drive in her present state.
As if it wasn’t enough, the sound of the heavy rain hitting the window was very loud and annoying.
The closer they got to the villa, the more her anger rose. Even the rain couldn’t kill it.
After stopping in front of the villa, Leon took an umbrella and went to open the door for Lucinda, but she had already gotten off and was walking into the house under the rain.
Leon ran to catch up with her with the umbrella in his hand.
“Miss Simmons! You should take the umbrella. You’re going to catch a cold!”
Nathaniel was cooking in the kitchen when he heard Leon shouting.
He looked at his watch and smiled happily. Lucinda came home twenty minutes earlier than usual. He washed his hands excitedly and walked out to welcome her.
Lucinda walked through the door at this time, her clothes and hair all wet. She looked so fragile.
Nathaniel rushed to the bathroom and came back with a clean towel for her.
“Where’s your umbrella? How could you walk in the rain? You know it’s getting cold lately. I’ll make you some soup to warm you up so you don’t catch a cold, okay?”

Lucinda just stared at him, observing him without saying a word.
He looked so caring and affectionate. She could see the love in his eyes.
But that was exactly how he broke down her walls and found an opportunity to save Eleanor.
He was smart. She had to give that to him. His acting was top notch!
Nathaniel paused in confusion when he felt Lucinda’s foul mood.
“What’s wrong?” he asked curiously.
Lucinda gave him a cold smile and said, “There are a lot of fallen leaves in the garden. Go and clean them.”
He looked out of the window, and then back at her in confusion.
“But it’s raining outside.”
“Clean it all up before coming back inside,” she snapped, walked past him and went upstairs.
