âNate!â she cried out.
âI was wrong, Nate!â she pleaded.
âI shouldnât have trusted Tess that day.
I shouldnât have let her bodyguards hurt you! I still deeply love you in my heart.
Now theyâve given up on me and want me to die.
Only you can save me!â
Nathaniel looked down at her with an expressionless face.
âIâm not here to save you,â he replied coolly.
âBut if you tell me everything you know, I can send you back to prison, which will prevent them from killing you, and allow you to live the rest of your life in peace.
â
Upon hearing this, Eleanor burst into tears.
âYouâre so cruel, Nate!â she exclaimed.
âEven if you donât care about our past relationship, we at least grew up together.
How could you send me back to hell?â
Nathaniel remained stoic as he replied, âLiving a stable life in prison is the best option for you, and itâs also a reward for your confession.
Isnât living better than dying?â
Tears streamed down Eleanorâs face.
She never expected to end up like this.
If she hadnât returned from abroad intending to become Nathanielâs wife, she could have continued living a leisurely life abroad.
The more she thought about it, the more upset she became, and she cried uncontrollably.
Nathaniel, with no emotion in his eyes, stood there silently.
Meanwhile, outside the cottage, Kyson ordered his men to distract Sonny, who was secretly guarding Nathaniel.
Kyson then joined Lucinda outside the cottage, and they both peered through the small window to observe the situation inside.
With a sinister grin on his face, Kyson whispered to Lucinda, âLook at your pet, so capable! Not only did he find his long-lost lover, but he also had a secret rendezvous with her in the suburbs.
Heâs so unfaithful to you.
How can you keep a pet like him?â
Lucinda pressed her lips together tightly and shot a piercing stare at Nathanielâs back, but didnât say a word.
Kyson caught her gaze and peered into the cottage, his ice blue eyes narrowing as a wicked grin spread across his face.
âLucinda, how about we play an interesting game?â
âWhat ?â
Lucinda turned to face him, suddenly feeling uneasy.
Kyson didnât respond, but raised his hand.
His man got the signal and quickly made his way towards the cottage.
