âI donât touch men.
â
Cyrus chuckled and playfully remarked, âSo youâre only into touching women, huh?â
âI wonât touch any other woman except Lucinda.
â
Nathan declared with unwavering determination and a dead serious expression.
Cyrus nodded approvingly.
âThatâs what I like to hear.
Remember, she means the world to us.
If you dare hurt her or make her sad, we will deal with you!â
Nathan smiled.
Talking about Lucinda always brought him immense joy.
Meanwhile, downstairs, at the gate of the villa, the people from the National Security Bureau were blocked by the bodyguards.
They stood there dumbfounded as Graham emerged from the house.
âWhy are you here, Mr.
Simmons? Where is Mr.
Payne?â
âHe has a cold and a fever.
Iâm here to take care of him on behalf of my sister.
If you have anything to say to him, say it to me.
â
Grahamâs tone was cold.
âWellâ¦â
They exchanged awkward glances and stammered, âSir, youâre in charge of the State Affairs Bureau.
This is an internal issue of the National Security Bureau, and Mr.
Payne is the decision-maker.
Moreover, it involves the Bureauâs sensitive information.
Please allow us to meet him in person.
â
Graham glanced at the files they were holding and slowly extended his hand.
His expression remained as cold as ice.
âGive me the documents then.
Iâll deliver them to him.
â
âNo, besides the documents, we need to report something to him privately.
â
Frowning, Graham looked displeased and intimidating.
âThereâs no need to report anything to him.
He can read the documents on his own.
I have no interest in the National Security Bureauâs confidential files.
I wonât snoop around.
Do you dare to doubt me?â
âNo⦠No sir.
We would never think such a thingâ¦â
âHand them over!â Graham commanded.
Under his intense pressure, they reluctantly handed over the documents.
