Her face was swollen and covered in purple bruises and scarlet blood.
Her clothes were torn and dirty.
Fortunately, Nathaniel had come in time.
Otherwise, the consequences wouldâve been unimaginable.
Seeing the sorry state she was in, Nathanielâs expression hardened.
Hatred filled his cold eyes, and his heart hurt so much that it was hard to breathe.
âLucinda? Lucinda! Stay awake! Donât fall asleep!â
The woman was swimming in and out of consciousness.
Luckily, she was still breathing, so Nathaniel knew that she was going to survive.
Looking at the miserable woman lying on the ground, Flynn felt bad.
âBoss, what should we do with the people inside?â
ALL of a sudden, a vicious look flashed in Nathanielâs eyes.
âKill them,â he said in a dangerously low voice.
Flynn wasted no time.
He immediately called someone to deal with the problem.
Nathaniel took off his jacket and carefully wrapped it around the half-naked girl.
There was a complicated look in his eye as he moved.
Unbeknownst to him, Lucinda was watching this scene from behind a big tree in the distance.
She stared at the pained expression on Nathanielâs face and wondered if she was imagining things.
If she really was the one lying on the ground unconscious, would Nathaniel have reacted the same way?
How come he still had feelings for her after everything that happened?
Was that even possible?

Complicated emotions surged in her heart as she watched Nathaniel care for the woman.
It felt very strange.
But the next second, her expression hardened.
She had been married to this man for three years, and not once did he show an ounce of affection towards her.
If he knew the woman on the ground was actually his beloved Eleanor, he would be more sad.
Refusing to waste any more time on this man, she turned around and left quietly.
Just then, the woman on the ground woke up in a daze.
Squinting, she gradually recognized the man in front of her.
âNate! I⦠I thought Iâd never see you againâ¦â she sobbed pitifully.
