Lucinda’s heart throbbed painfully in her chest.
She would not have really grasped the extent of Nathan’s suffering for her if she had not witnessed it first-hand.
She was overcome with regret and guilt.
With her thoughts all over the place, she stumbled out of the place with Nathan holding her hand.
Her eyes were puffy and red from crying by the time she got in the car. She resembled a rabbit who had just been spooked.

Lucinda giggled, but she took pity on the man and stopped teasing him.
Nathan reached out and placed her hand on his chest.
“I don’t have a silver tongue. I mean what I said. Can’t you feel my heart beating for you?”
Lucinda flattened her palm on his chest and felt a surge of joy when she realized that his heart was indeed beating fast.
