Sonny said and ran out.
Nathaniel tried to get Lucindaâs hand again, but she stepped aside.
Then she said to her men, âSend the crowd back to the party.
â
Since there was nothing fun to watch, the crowd obeyed this time.
After they were all gone, Lucinda walked to Tess, looking at her with a sharp and calculating gaze.
She smiled faintly and said, âMiss Green, considering the problems weâve had, I only planned to make the Green family go bankrupt.
If you behave well, I will even spare your life.
But if you collude with anyone to step on my path, trust me, you wonât be able to bear the consequences.
â
Tess was taken aback by the powerful threat.
She could tell how sincere every word was.
But then, she quickly came back to her senses and said with a smile, âDonât worry, Miss Ross.
We canât really tell who will win in the end, can we?â
Lucinda smiled wryly and answered, âI guess weâll see.
â
Then, she left the party with Dwayne and the bodyguards.
Nathaniel rushed to catch up with her, but Tess stopped him.
âNathaniel, the party isnât over yet.
Why are you in such a hurry to leave? Stay a little longer, will you?â
âf@ck off!â he spat out coldly and ran out of the hotel.
When he got outside, Lucinda was about to close her door.
But Nathaniel ran and grabbed the door handle of her car before she closed it.
âLucinda, please.
.
â
âWhat do you want?â she asked coldly.
Nathaniel looked into the car and only saw Abel in the driverâs seat and Rickey next to him in the passenger seat.
He guessed that Leon and Conor drove Dwayne back to the Gordon family.
Lucinda was seated alone in the back.
Scared of getting her more angry, Nathaniel said in a low voice, âI want to go back to the villa too.
May I get in the car with you?â
Since she was alone, the space next to her was empty.
Nathaniel looked at her expectantly waiting for her response.
However, Lucinda said, âNo!
You can go back with whoever brought you here, or you trek back.
