If Nathan or any of his minions ever tries to come to see me again, you are to immediately intervene.
â
âYes, maâam.
â
Leon nodded and moved to follow her.
They left the villa in silence.
They did not notice the young man in the corner in a blue suit and gold-rimmed glasses, peering at Lucinda.
The man was Ronan Payne.
He pushed his glasses up and narrowed his eyes before turning to his bodyguard.
âIsnât that Nathanâs fiancee, the girl from the Simmons family?â
The bodyguard stared at Lucindaâs retreating form before answering, âYes, sir.
â
âSheâs pretty, but I think sheâs in a bad mood right now.
Go and find out why sheâs here.
â
âYes, sir.
â
The bodyguard left silently.
Ten minutes later, he returned to Ronanâs side and reported, âShe came here to break off her engagement with Mr.
Nathan, but your grandfather didnât agree to it.
â
âBreak off the engagement?â
Nathan spent a lot of time and effort to be engaged with her, which means she holds a special place in his heart,â Ronan concluded.
The bodyguard frowned.
âBut I heard that Mr.
Nathan didnât even attend her party.
I donât think he cares about her that much.
â
âWhat do you know?â Ronan rolled his eyes at the bodyguard and sneered, âItâs hard to tell what heâs thinking, but Iâll get there eventually.
â
âWhat do you mean, sir?â

Ronan grinned wickedly.
âIt seems that Nathan is on a mission right now, and from what Iâve heard, heâs right in the thick of the action.
What do you think will happen if he finds out that his fiancee tried to break off their engagement and our grandfather approved of it?â
The bodyguard caught on to what he was trying to convey at once.
âDonât worry, sir.
Iâll make sure that the word gets to him as soon as possible.
â
Since Lucinda could not cancel the engagement, she put the matter out of her mind and got back to work.
She had spent the last few days preparing, and now, she was nearly finished.
For the past two days, she has been spreading the news to all of the highly regarded artists at Angle Intl.
As soon as tomorrow, she could perform the ribbon-cutting ceremony.
She spent the entire day working at her desk.
She sifted through the records of each and every company-signed artist before making her final choices.
