“Yes, when we’re alone, I’ll obey your commands. But when we’re in public, please try to follow my lead, alright?”
Lucinda fell into silence.
Men were known for their pride, especially someone as powerful as him.
He commanded a group of loyal subordinates, who respected and obeyed his every order.
He wanted her to assume the role of a submissive wife to satisfy his ego, and she understood him.
“Okay.”
He was pleased and planted a ki*s on her forehead.
“When do you plan to get up? Will you be dealing with Noelle’s matter today?”
“Yes! Noelle!”
Lucinda’s eyes instantly widened. She hurriedly reached for her phone on the bedside table.
The previous night had been filled with blissful moments shared with Nathan, causing her to forget to charge her phone. Its battery had drained completely.
She plugged in the charger and waited a few minutes before attempting to power it on.
As soon as the phone came on, a barrage of missed calls flooded the screen.

She noticed that most of them were from Vivian and Abel.
Abel had called multiple times. Could something be wrong with Noelle?
She dialed his number, anxious to find out what was happening.
“Miss Simmons! You’ve finally picked up! Reporters have swarmed the hospital entrance, demanding an interview with Miss Moran. Rickey mobilized the hospital security guards to protect her, but I’m not sure how long they can hold them off!”
Lucinda’s face turned dark.
“How is Noelle doing? Can she handle the interview?”
Abel cast a glance towards the ward and responded, “Her condition is not quite stable yet. Plus, the reporters’ questions can be quite intense, which might agitate her.”
“Okay, I see. I’ll be there soon.”
She ended the call. Immediately she stood up, she felt a trembling wave rush through her legs. She struggled to find her balance until she firmly grasp onto the bedpost.
Nathan was so rude last night.
He had subjected her to his ‘punishment’ for hours on end, leaving her with barely any rest before the break of dawn.
