Lately, whenever he met Nathan, he was beaten up by him.
In a moment of desperation, he splashed the juice from the tray onto Sonnyâs face, temporarily blinding him.
Seizing the opportunity, Brinleigh strained to break free and hastily fled.
âGo after him! Heâs weak.
If he outruns you, Iâll personally deal with you,â Nathan commanded.
âSir, donât worry!â Trembling all over, Sonny chased after Brinleigh with all his might.
Inside the private room, the girls were immersed in cheerful conversation, enjoying their meal.
Suddenly, the door swung open.
Uma, closest to the entrance, assumed it was a waiter and didnât bother to look up.
She simply requested, âFinally, someoneâs here to serve us.
Please help me roast this beef!â
However, the person behind her remained still.
In a cold voice, he declared, âDonât expect me to roast anything for you.
Iâm here for my fiancee!â
Hearing the voice, all the girls turned around simultaneously.
Upon seeing the man, Uma was too frightened to utter a single word.
Lucinda was taken aback.
âWhy have you come? Did the aroma of the roast meat lure you for dinner?â
Nathan felt offended and pouted.
âYouâre feasting here without even considering if Iâm hungry or not.
â
Unable to see her after work and waiting for her for a considerable time, anger had built up within him to the point of wanting to demolish the house.
Driven by fury, he approached Lucinda without hesitation, swept her up into his arms, turned around, and walked away.
âLetâs go! Iâll roast the meat for you when we get home!â
âDidnât I text you that Iâd be out for dinner and come home later?
Why have you rushed here?â Lucinda asked.
Nathanâs handsome face twisted with annoyance.
âIâm frustrated.
I havenât seen you all day.
And when you finally left work, I should get to see you.
Every minute away from you feels like torture to me.
â
Hearing him say that in front of Uma and Sally, Lucinda blushed and squirmed, struggling to break free.
âYou⦠Let me go firstâ¦â
But he held her tighter, whispering in her ear with a voice only they could hear, âDonât forget our little agreement.
