They were standing so close to each other that they could feel one anotherâs breath.
Nathaniel swallowed, his Adamâs apple bobbing up and down slightly.
A trace of scarlet blood dripped down from his neck, dyeing the collar of his expensive shirt a deep red.
He frowned.
âSo cruel,â he whispered.
Lucinda sneered.
âWhy should I be merciful to a ruthless man Like you?â
Suddenly, the man cracked a smile and brought his face closer to hers.
It seemed that he didnât believe that she would dare to kill him.
âCome any closer and Iâll slit your throat.
Try it if you donât believe me.
â
Her voice wasnât loud, and Nathaniel could clearly see the stone-cold look in her eyes.
Cross this woman, and she would kill.
He chuckled, let go of her hand, and took two steps back.
Finally free, Lucinda rubbed her wrist and walked past him to get the transfer agreement on the coffee table.
She leafed through it quickly.
The terms were fair.
She picked up the pen next to her and signed the two copies without hesitation.

Taking one of the copies, she turned around and headed for the door.
Nathaniel quietly watched her walk away as he raised his hand to touch the blood on his neck.
Lucinda walked out of the villa without looking back.
When Flynn saw her approaching, he subconsciously shrank his neck.
As soon as she walked past him, he ran inside the villa to see how Nathaniel was doing.
Lucinda completely ignored him and called Vivian.
âHelp me find some people to renovate the Bay Villa.
Throw away all the furniture and refurnish the place.
I also want new flowers planted in the garden.
â
âGot it.
â
Vivian nodded obediently.
