Chapter 1627: Chapter 1841

Yet, he has the means to lead such a life.

Born into aristocracy, luxury is his norm.

Plus, he’s got a business head.

When his father died, Danilo inherited a vast fortune that made him almost untouchable in the business world.

Ignoring his escapades, he’s quite the esteemed businessman.

”

After mulling it over, Lucinda inquired, “When did he make his affair with Nala public?”

“I’m not entirely sure, but I heard they met when he was on a business trip to Cadiered.

Nala was studying in Cadiered at the time.

After they fell in love, they frequently traveled together abroad.

”

Ellsworth sipped his fruit tea and continued, “Based on what I’ve observed, he genuinely cares about Nala more than any of his previous girlfriends.

I suspect he’s truly in love with her.

”

While Ellsworth spoke, Lucinda attentively listened to his words, her mind processing the information she gleaned from him.

What a coincidence!

Danilo and Nala coincidentally met in Cadiered, and afterward, he whisked her away abroad.

Considering Danilo’s fame and fortune, if there was a genuine issue with Nala, he had the means to provide her with a new identity.

“Why are you so invested in Danilo’s personal life, Miss Simmons?

Does it have any connection to this attack?” Ellsworth asked.

Lucinda snapped back to reality at his question.

“I was merely inquiring.

”

Until things became clear, these were merely her speculations.

Without concrete evidence, disclosing everything to him could potentially tip off the adversaries and make them more prepared.

She inexplicably felt a throbbing sensation in her head.

She furrowed her brow and struggled to rub the back of her head.

The bruise in the area where she was still sore remained sensitive.

Even a gentle touch could elicit a mild twinge of pain.

Seeing her discomfort, Nathan drew her close, comforting, “Lucinda, let those thoughts go.

They’re draining you, especially with your head injury.

Don’t strain yourself.

”

Resting on his chest, she gave a slight nod.

“If you’re feeling unwell, try to rest a bit.

Don’t fret.

I’ll handle the rest,” Nathan said softly.

Another nod and her heavy eyelids closed as she drifted off in his embrace.

Sitting across from them, Ellsworth’s sympathy for her deepened even further.

“Mr.

Payne, I take full responsibility for not ensuring your wife’s safety adequately.

I offer you my heartfelt apology.

I never anticipated that it would result in a delay in your return.

Nevertheless, please rest assured that I will ensure a comprehensive police investigation, leaving no room for any suspicious details to go unnoticed.

”

Nathan was expressionless as he gazed down at the injured woman in his embrace.

He tenderly rested his palm on her back, displaying a gentle and caring demeanor.

“Have you uncovered who was behind the blow to the back of her head?”
