ALL four guards ended up bruised and battered, vowing never to take on such a task again.
Lucinda could never really hurt anyone? That was a total lie!
Aware that Nathan was trying to comfort Lucinda, Aldric chose not to challenge his exaggeration.
Instead, he quipped, âAbsolutely, Lucinda is the real weak one here.
She struggles even with a bottle cap.
If she were to hit Nathan, it would be no more harmful than a catâs scratch.
â
His comment was clearly an exaggeration.
Both Lucinda and Nathan looked displeased.
After their conversation, Nathan left the lab, a bag of medicine in one hand and Lucindaâs hand in the other.
He dropped Lucinda off at Simmons Group first.

Before she stepped out of the car, Nathan reiterated her medication schedule with earnest concern.
âHoney, remember to take three light green pills at a time, three times a day, and two other pills twice a dayâ¦â
At first, Lucinda felt a flicker of impatience, but Nathanâs earnest expression soon softened her reaction, making her listen more attentively.
Nathan continued, âAnd remember, drink warm water with them.
Avoid cold water or taking the pills dry-itâs not good for your stomach and could lessen their effectiveness.
Got it?â
Lucinda nodded.
âYes, honey.
Donât worry.
Aldric noted down the dosage for me.
I wonât forget.
â
She leaned over to the driverâs seat, cupped Nathanâs face in her hands, and planted ki*ses on his cheeks and Lips.
Nathan, still anxious, wanted to accompany her inside but couldnât because of his duties at the National Security Bureau, especially with pressing issues involving Mylo and Ronan looming.
He sighed.
âRemember to take your medicine, but if you forget, itâs not the end of the world.
Iâll call you at noon to make sure youâve taken it-I can watch you over video.
â
Lucinda was taken aback.
âWhy are you so strict?â
âYour health is my priority,â Nathan replied.
âRemember, you used to make sure I took my medicine just like this.
â
Lucinda found no words to counter his assertion.
She pursed her lips, opened the car door, waved at Nathan, and walked into the Simmons Group building.
Nathan didnât immediately drive off in his luxury car.
Instead, he pulled out his phone and promptly set a reminder for Lucindaâs medication schedule during his lunch break.
It wasnât until Lucinda had completely disappeared into the building that Nathan started the car and headed towards the National Security Bureau.
Upon reaching the office, Nathan noticed Sonny waiting outside with a stack of documents, seemingly anticipating his arrival.
âWhy are you waiting out here today? Why not go inside?â Nathan asked, a hint of a smile on his Lips.
âI saw you coming down the corridor, so I am here to greet you,â
Sonny replied with a grin.
