After lunch, Nathan assisted in easing Lucindaâs aching back with a massage.
Once she had improved significantly, he called Etta and requested a ride to the museum.
Lucinda had never been to Aldoria before, so she was intrigued by its culture and history.
She wore metal-framed glasses to allow for a close examination of the exhibits.
Nathanâs grip on her hand remained unyielding.
Etta admired the young couple who were deeply and passionately in love.
During their exploration, Lucinda caught a glimpse of a familiar figure out of the corner of her eye.
She glanced behind her and spotted a couple in a different part of the exhibition.
The man had the woman nestled in his embrace, and from Lucindaâs vantage point, only their backs and the womanâs white dress were visible.
Catching Lucindaâs attention, Etta elucidated, âThey, too, are participants in the bidding.
They landed here a day ago and are first-timers to Aldoria.
Mr.
Nguyen had them escorted here for the museum tour.
â
Lucinda inquired casually, âAre they from Cadiered?â
âNo, Mr.
Brewer hails from Zephyria, and thatâs his new girlfriend, Nala Diaz.
â
âNala Diaz?â Lucinda murmured.
As she observed the woman in the white dress from afar, she grinned and remarked, âWhat a charming name.
I bet sheâs stunning.
â
Etta nodded in agreement.
âYouâve hit the nail on the head.
Miss Diaz is truly striking.
Mr.
Brewer holds her in deep affection.
Theyâre like an inseparable couple, like you and your husband.
â
Lucinda and Nathan exchanged smiles, their eyes brimming with love.
They were a youthful couple deeply enamored with each other.
âTheyâre here to explore the museum as well.
Would you like to head over and strike up a conversation with them?â Lucinda inquired with a grin.
Eyeing the hall across from the exhibit, Nathan remarked, âIt seems theyâre savoring their private moment.
I doubt theyâd want interruptions.
Maybe we can greet them once theyâre done?â
Lucinda signaled her agreement with a nod.
Engaging in social interactions wasnât her cup of tea.
Plus, she wasnât keen on cutting short her cherished moments with Nathan for such interactions.
Mr.
Brewer and Nala, who were nearby, likely preferred not to be bothered now.
This fleeting encounter didnât deter their museum exploration.
Lucinda and Nathan trailed behind Danilo Brewer and Nala, waiting until they had completed their visit before entering the same area themselves.
