Chapter 1737: Chapter 1951

Lucinda was touched by Violeta’s kind words.

Violeta had always supported her, unlike Graham.

As Lucinda felt a wave of relief wash over her, Violeta comforted her, “I’m not fond of Nala either.

Don’t worry; I’ll do everything I can to help you, but…”

She stopped mid-sentence, her face flushing with embarrassment.

After a brief pause, Violeta took Lucinda’s hands in hers, her voice earnest.

“Lucinda, since everything came to light, Graham has renounced his power.

He hasn’t spoken of Valerie since and deeply regrets his past actions.

Once we’re past this, could you find it in your heart to forgive him?”

Lucinda looked down, gently pulling her hands away from Violeta’s.

“Violeta, I can’t pretend just to make you feel better.

Let’s revisit this once everything has settled, okay? For now, I don’t see any change in Graham.

”

Violeta nodded, accepting Lucinda’s stance without further questions.

Their conversation shifted away from the delicate subject.

Soon after, Violeta exited Lucinda’s luxurious car and returned to the villa.

With the ongoing turmoil at Peace Mountain, Lucinda realized she had no option but to wait and see how things unfolded.

Glancing at her watch, she noted it was time to leave work.

An unexpected emergency had pushed the afternoon meeting to the following day, so she decided to head back to N&L Fairy Land.

Upon her arrival, she was surprised to

find Sonny at home, with Nathan busy packing upstairs.

Curiosity piqued, Lucinda inquired, “Heading out on business, Sonny?”

He nodded, his response grave.

“There’s a complex issue near the border, requiring Mr.

Payne’s and my immediate attention.

We’re leaving tonight.

”

Understanding the sensitivity of National Security Bureau matters, Lucinda refrained from probing further.

Instead, she asked, “How long do you expect to be away?”

After a moment of contemplation, Sonny responded with uncertainty, “It’s hard to say.

If things go smoothly, we could be back in a few days.

Otherwise, our stay might extend.

”

This meant Lucinda would have to endure a temporary separation from Nathan.

During their exchange, Nathan descended the stairs, suitcase in hand.

Upon seeing him, Sonny promptly offered to take the suitcase.

Nathan cast a glance at Lucinda before addressing Sonny, saying, “Please take my luggage outside.

I’d Like a moment alone with Lucinda.

”

“Understood.

”

Sonny carried the suitcase out, waiting in the garden.

Once alone, Nathan wrapped Lucinda in a tight embrace.

“I must apologize, Lucinda.

A crisis has erupted at the border, leading to unrest.

I’m required there tonight.

The thought of being apart from you is unbearable.

”

Lucinda comforted him, patting his back gently.

“It’s alright.

I understand your responsibilities.

Just make sure to stay safe, alright?”
