Just because Nathan didn’t want to share it with her didn’t mean she couldn’t dig deeper on her own.
Lost in thought, she walked out of the office.
Sonny stood nearby.
Lucinda approached him discreetly and whispered, “I need to talk to you about something. Follow me.”

“What is that?”
Sonny felt a twinge of unease as he observed Lucinda’s serious expression, but he couldn’t bring himself to refuse. He reluctantly followed her to an empty and secure corridor.
“Miss Simmons, what can I do for you?”
Lucinda asked with utmost seriousness, “How many years have you been working for Nathan?”
After pondering for a moment, Sonny responded, “At least ten years.”
Lucinda nodded thoughtfully and went on with another question.
“Did Nathan sustain any injuries when you were at the border?”
“No. There were many men around him. We wouldn’t watch him get hurt.
There’s no need to worry,”
Sonny responded calmly and promptly.
Lucinda began to piece things together.
“Then he must be sick.”
Sonny lowered his head and remained silent.

“You’ve been with him for such a long time, so you must know his health condition well. What’s wrong with him? Is it severe?”
Sonny rubbed his head and said with a bitter smile, “Why do you even think so? His health has been pretty good. He is not sick.”
“He’s keeping the truth from me. And you don’t want to tell me either.”
“Last night, I accidentally nudged him off the bed, and it was clear that he was weak. When I saw him just now, his face was as pale as a ghost. Even if you deny it, I won’t believe that he’s fine. So just tell me. What’s going on with him?”
With a pained expression, Sonny fought the urge to reveal the truth and let out a sigh.
“Don’t push me any further. I genuinely don’t know anything. I… I have some work to attend to, so I’ll take my leave now.”
Watching him walk away, Lucinda pondered for a moment before pulling out her phone to call one of Dark Bell’s subordinates.
