Her glum train of thought was broken by the ringing of her phone.
It was a call from Graham.
âLucinda, I heard from Abel that you need my help.
â
Lucinda took a deep breath.
âCorrect.
â
âOkay, but Iâm afraid I canât return to Stastle for the time being.
I have matters to deal with in the next couple of days.
Just tell me what you want me to do, and Iâll handle it when I have the time.
â
Graham was checking his schedule even as he said this.
âThank you, Graham.
â Lucinda paused and braced herself, and then finally said, âI need you to help me get Kyson out of prison.

There was a beat of silence on the line.
Whatever Graham was expecting to hear, this was definitely not it.

âDid you just rob a mall or something?â
She flashed a sheepish smile.
âWell, girls can never resist a good discount.
When itâs âbuy one get one free,â or even âbuy two get three free,â itâs just too tempting to pass up.
I mean, itâs practically a steal! So, naturally, I had to buy them all.
â
He stood there, momentarily dumbfounded, and decided to call her out on her bluff.
âCome on, money isnât exactly a concern for you.
Do you really care about a discount? Itâs just a marketing gimmick to lure customers.
â
âRubbish! The more money I have, the better.
If I can get something at a lower price, why pay full price? I may be rich, but Iâm not foolish, you know!â
âCanât argue with that logic.
Not wasting money is always a good thing,â Nathan conceded, nodding appreciatively.
âYouâll make a fine, industrious wife!â
Lucinda found his serious expression amusing and couldnât help but chuckle.
âWell, enough chatter.
Help me open these bags.
Iâve bought loads of winter clothes for you.
