Chapter 1878: Chapter 2092

Lucinda couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

It didn’t escape her how Nathan tried to be delicate with his opinions so as not to hurt her feelings.

“What?” Nathan asked in a rush.

“Did I say something wrong?”

“No, not at all.

” Lucinda took his right hand with both of hers and held it on her lap.

“They said they wanted to go on a trip with us for a few days.

What do you think?”

Nathan paused for a moment.

“I’m swamped with matters at the National Security Bureau lately, so I may not be able to go on a trip right now.

”

“No worries, Hilliard and Jennifer are feeling worn out and could use some rest before we embark on our journey together.

They can afford to wait for us,” Lucinda reassured him.

Observing Lucinda’s excitement, Nathan couldn’t help but be curious.

“You seem particularly enthusiastic about this trip.

Aren’t you concerned about the babies?”

Lucinda’s mind drifted back to their previous trip to Aldoria.

Her anxiety over the babies developing a fever spiraled out of control, leading her to lose her grip on her emotions upon their return to the hotel.

In a moment of distress, she inadvertently lashed out, striking Nathan.

Riddled with guilt, Lucinda sought solace in Nathan’s presence.

She enveloped his arm in a tight embrace, gently resting her head on his shoulder.

“I realize now that I was wrong during our time in Aldoria.

You managed both the business affairs and the babies remarkably well.

My worries were unnecessary, and for that, I’m sorry.

”

Nathan’s dark eyes softened as he replied, “You have nothing to apologize for.

Your struggle with bipolar disorder was evident then, and it clouded your judgment.

Your illness caused your emotional turmoil, and it was not your fault.

”

The more understanding he appeared, the heavier Lucinda’s sense of remorse grew.

Since their return from Aldoria, she had been grappling with numerous challenges, and only now did she find the opportunity to offer a sincere apology to Nathan.

“I even struck you with a clothes hanger last time.

How about… when we return home, you strike me back?”

Nathan was caught off guard by Lucinda’s proposal.

Strike his wife?

How could he bring himself to do such terrible things?

He stared at Lucinda, sensing the seriousness in her eyes.

It was clear that she wasn’t joking about her proposal.

“If you truly wish to make it up to me…” His voice trailed off, a mischievous glint flickering in his eyes after a moment’s contemplation.

“When we’re back home, you’ll comply with my every whim.

”

Lucinda caught the hint of mischief in his demeanor and whispered, “Is that the punishment you have in mind? Really?”

Suppressing a smirk, Nathan replied, “What sort of punishment do you desire then?”

“It’s your call! How can you leave it up to me?”

Nathan stopped the impulse to ‘punish’ his beloved on the spot and concentrated on driving home.
