Nathaniel had behaved strangely before she left.
He had asked some very odd questions.
Almost like the final wishes of a person who did not want to die.
The more she thought about it, the more worried Lucinda felt.
Especially the last words he said before she left.
He had gripped her wrist and said, âKyson is not a man to be taken lightly.
He has some secrets that could be very dangerous for you.
You need to watch your back around him.
â
Something was very wrong.
The way he said it, it felt like he knew he wouldnât be there to protect her anymore.
She remembered his trembling hands, his feeble body, and his words.

Lucinda struggled to breathe.
She shouted at Kysonâs driver, âPull over!â
âWhatâs wrong, Lucinda?â
Lucinda unfastened her seat belt and opened the car door.
âI have something urgent to deal with.
I need to postpone our dinner.
Rain check!â
âWait! Lucindaâ¦â Kysonâs words were interrupted by the slamming door.
The wealthy villa district had no taxi ranks at the roadside.
After she scrambled from Kysonâs car, Lucinda had no choice but to run home.
Rickey and Pierre followed her.
Kysonâs car remained where she had left it.
Through the rear-view mirror, Kyson watched the woman rush back to Bay Villa.
His expression became cold.
When Lucinda had left Bay Villa with Kyson, Sonny entered the house.
Abel, Leon and Conor emerged when they saw him.
Conor rubbed his hands excitedly.
âSonny, last time you won a monthâs salary from me.
I plan to win it all back today.
Ha ha!â
Sonny looked serious.
âIâm not here to play cards.
â
Conor, Abel and Leon glanced at each other, confused.
