His pain intensified, but he silently endured the discomfort, feeling a little wronged.
When Lucinda finally released her grip, a bite mark was left on Nathanâs wrist, which was now bleeding.
Even the gentlest touch caused him agony.
Glaring at him, Lucinda declared, âGet out of my way.
Iâll eat three more, and thatâs all for today.
â
Nathan remained silent, clearly not agreeing with her.
âIf you wonât yield, Iâll bite you again!â
She threatened silently, licking her teeth provocatively.
The pain from her previous bite was still fresh in his memory.
Feeling utterly wronged, Nathanâs eyes reddened with tears.
He took her hand and placed it between his legs, expressing his pique, âBiting my arm isnât enough to vent your anger? Then bite me here.
A bite in this spot will make me suffer a lot!â
Lucinda was left speechless, unable to come up with a retort.
She had to concede this time.
âNo, I wonât do that.
That thing between your legs is an essential part of our happiness!â
As she spoke, she pouted, her eyes filled with helplessness, and she finally settled back on the sofa.
âFine! I surrender!â She decided to sneakily eat a few more tangerines after he fell asleep.
She picked up the iPad beside her and casually browsed through the news.
However, she noticed that Graham was making headlines.
Instantly, Lucindaâs demeanor became serious as she read the news about him.
Graham had resigned from the State Affairs Bureau and was even suspended by the airline he worked for.
Moreover, he had also stepped down from the Simmons Group.
Nathan joined her, sitting down next to her.
He read the news as well and quickly grasped the reason behind Grahamâs actions.
âGraham holds significant power in Cadiered.
Heâs showing his sincere repentance by giving up all the power that could threaten you.
Now, you can handle Valerie however you see fit.
From this point on, he wonât interfere.
â
Lucinda set aside her iPad, remaining silent for a moment.
After a while, Ismael called her.
âMiss Simmons, your brother refused to sign the inheritance agreement.
He said it would be better if you could run the Simmons Group.
Will you come back this afternoon to sign the agreement?â
