Immediately he said that, Lucinda planted ki*ses on his cheeks and chin.
The red lip prints on his face looked quite amusing.
Wearing a sweet smile, Lucinda said, “Go on. When you stop fabricating lies and decide to tell the truth, I’ll be reasonable.”
Feeling defeated, Nathan felt a burden in his heart. He had underestimated Lucinda’s intelligence.
Not only did she see through his facade, but she also playfully taunted him.
Yet, he found himself powerless, unable to do anything about the situation.
Nathan found himself with no other choice but to simply ignore Lucinda.

He looked out of the window again, looking indifferent.
The lipstick marks all over his handsome face were so amusing.
The cold and arrogant facade he had carefully maintained crumbled in front of Lucinda.
Not a word came out of his mouth, and Lucinda decided against pushing him any further.
“Fine, I’ll give you some time to cool off. But don’t you dare mention canceling the engagement or breaking up again. You were the one who messed with me first, and there’s no backing out now. Nathan, you’re mine for life!
And I’m sorry that I’m such an arrogant woman. But it’s too late for you to start picking on my flaws. You can’t run away from me no matter what.”
With a dismissive snort, she rose from the chair and took her leave.
She knew Nathan all too well. He was stubborn to the core. He wouldn’t easily reveal his true feelings.
Moreover, he had a penchant for concealing his pain and suffering in silence.

Lucinda had pieced together most of the puzzle regarding why he had developed such a guarded personality.
During the last party, Norton’s fury had reached its peak, and he even threatened to punish Nathan in her presence.
Nathan’s parents had tragically passed away in a car accident when he was very young, leaving Norton to raise boy.
Norton was an old-fashioned and strict man. He must have beaten and punished Nathan so much. Nathan bore the brunt of it all without anyone extending sympathy to him, forcing him to endure the pain alone.
He had always cherished his loved ones deeply, and as a result, he had become adept at concealing his emotions from them.
So Lucinda had a gut feeling.
He was either injured or sick.
Also, judging by his unusual behavior, she suspected that the problem at hand could be complex.
