Nathan was rendered speechless.
Her logic made no sense to him.
âDonât be scared.
Iâm right here and he canât do anything to you.
Do it!â Lucinda instructed Sonny, her gaze fixed upon him.
With her assurance, Sonny strode determinedly towards Nathan.
But in an instant, Nathan launched a powerful kick at him.
Sonny didnât dare to dodge.
He clutched his leg and cried out in pain, âOuch! He hit me, Miss Simmons!â
âYou bastard, how dare you speak ill of me in front of my face?â
Nathan seethed and his eyes were ablaze with fury.
Sonnyâs confidence waned, and he quickly retreated, seeking protection behind Lucinda.
Lucinda sighed and requested a rope from Aldric to bind Nathanâs feet herself.
Sonny then hurried over, gripped Nathanâs hands tightly, and instructed Aldric to administer the injection.
Nathanâs rage burned fiercely.
Even though his body was immobilized, Aldric was still petrified by his overwhelming aura and hesitant to approach him.
âLet me handle it,â Lucinda said, extending her hand.
Aldric heaved a sigh of relief and gave her the syringe.
Nathan lifted his gaze to meet hers.
âDonât do this to me.
â
Leaning closer, she pressed her lips against his.
âIâll be gentle.
I wonât cause you any pain.
This time, weâll address your complications.
And next time, weâll completely cure you.
â
âLucindaâ¦â
âDonât you want a joyful future with me? Just the two of us? Maybe even a beautiful baby someday? Our future will be incredible once youâre fixed.
â
Their eyes locked.
Nathan attentively absorbed her words, drawn in by her clear eyes.
While he listened intently, Lucinda swiftly inserted the needle into the vein on his neck and carefully administered the liquid into his body.
