At last, Noelle’s tears stopped. She raised her head and met Lucinda’s questioning gaze with a determined one of her own.

“Get me evidence of Delavan and Salome’s affair as soon as possible.

Lucinda was pensive the entire time, and remained silent throughout dinner. She was occupied by thoughts of Noelle.
Nathan was seething at this point, but he still held his anger back.
The entire night, he had been feeling as if his wife cared more about Noelle than him.
Sure enough, Lucinda went straight to her bedroom after finishing the meal.
