Chapter 1794: Chapter 2008

Knowing that Lucinda was on her way to the island, Graham swiftly departed from Peace Mountain with Violeta, making their way towards the island.

Arriving at the seaside just in time, they caught sight of Lucinda preparing to depart for the island.

“Lucinda!”

Violeta’s voice drew Lucinda’s attention, and she turned to see her and Graham approaching.

“Violeta, what brings you here?”

“Graham’s concern for you brought us here to check on you.

”

Lucinda shifted her gaze to Graham.

Graham and Lucinda shared a lingering gaze before she averted her eyes.

“Well, since you’re here, let’s go together to the island,” Lucinda offered.

Sonny stayed behind, coordinating his men to secure the seaside as planned, prepared for any unforeseen circumstances.

With Violeta and Graham accompanying her, Lucinda set sail for the island.

On the island, Danilo and Nala awaited them at the entrance of a luxurious villa, appearing as if they were on a leisurely vacation.

Their bodyguards stood behi

d them, exuding an air of authority, almost as if they were there for amusement.

Upon noticing Violeta and Graham’s presence, Nala’s face lit up with a bright smile.

“Ah, my dear brother and sister-in-law have joined us.

Your deep affection for Lucinda is palpable.

Although she’s here to take me away, I can sense your concern for her well-being.

”

Violeta’s demeanor turned icy and solemn.

“I am not your sister-in-law.

My only sister-in-law is Lucinda.

”

Graham discreetly pinched Violeta’s wrist, urging her to refrain from provoking Nala.

Maintaining a distance between them, they exchanged looks.

Nala’s once lovely visage contorted upon hearing Violeta’s words.

Perplexed, Nala questioned, “Why must it be this way? Despite being an illegitimate child, I share the Simmons bloodline.

Why can’t I receive the love I crave? I’ve always had to rely on myself, while Lucinda basks in the affection of everyone.

”

Tears brimmed in her beautiful eyes, her sadness palpable as she exclaimed, “Why? ALL I yearn for is the warmth of family.

Why must everyone corner me like this?”

Danilo’s heart brimmed with empathy as he gently wrapped his arms around Nala’s waist, guiding her to settle on his lap.

“Nala, my sympathy for you runs deep.

I promise to stand by your side, always.

”

In the presence of Lucinda, Violeta, and Graham, Nala tenderly enveloped Danilo’s neck with her arms, seeking solace and reassurance in his embrace.

A 21-year-old sought comfort in the arms of Danilo, a man twice her age.

Violeta and Graham furrowed their brows in unison, their expressions reflecting disapproval at the scene unfolding before them.

Confronted with Nala’s accusation, Lucinda responded in a composed tone, “Well, you had it coming.

You harbored nefarious intentions, attempting to undermine me and usurp my position within the Simmons family.

Your actions have caused considerable harm, and you should have foreseen the day when your family would turn away from you.

Even though some memories evade me, had you approached me with kindness, perhaps our relationship wouldn’t have soured to this extent.

I’ve always been open-hearted, treating legitimate and illegitimate children with the same kindness.

Had you not sought to harm me incessantly, I would’ve welcomed you as a sister.

You have no one to blame but yourself.
