Her instincts told her that he wasnât lying.
âJust tell me what you mean!â
Kyson shook his head, still smiling.
It irked Lucinda, but she couldnât do anything else to him.
He was still the director of the Secret Investigation Department, after all, and held a high position in Cadieredâs military.
She wasnât planning to cause unnecessary trouble for herself and Graham just because the bastard annoyed her.
She turned on her heel and walked out of the room.
Nathaniel approached her as soon as the door slammed shut behind her.
âHow was it? Did he tell you what you needed to know?â
Lucinda shook her head.
âForget it.
All I was able to confirm was that he colluded with someone to try to kill me.
Iâll find another way to investigate the rest of the matter.
Tell Sonny and the others to destroy all the evidence.
Donât leave a single trace.
Send Kyson back in secret tomorrow.
â
This didnât sit well with Nathaniel at all.
Lucinda might have the luxury to draw things out, but he didnât.
He was running out of time.
âLucinda, if you trust me even a little bit, then allow me to handle this.
I will get the truth out of him within two days.
â
âYou know who he is, donât you? Are you really going to do this?â
Lucinda looked up at him with a serious expression.

âYou were the one who hit his face, right? If you torture him, the whole Secret Investigation Department and the Shaw family will come after you.
â
Nathaniel smiled.
He didnât seem to take her words to heart.
âDonât worry.
I will deal with this matter properly.
â
They locked gazes and stared into each otherâs eyes for a moment.
Lucinda pressed her lips into a thin line.
She didnât know why, but she felt the urge to trust Nathaniel.
âALL right, fine.
You can give it a go.
â
She thought back to the last words Kyson had said to her.
âLetâs go back to the villa.
â
âYou can head back first.
Iâll stay here and make arrangements.
