Moreover, Lucinda could tell that Nortonâs defense of Mylo had wounded Nathan deeply.
Nathan did not voice it, but he was acutely sensitive to the affection and attention from his family.
The more Lucinda pondered over his feelings, the more her heart sympathized with his pain.
Softly, she leaned closer to his ear and whispered a promise.
âI will also give all my love to you, without holding anything back, my dear.
â Then, a thought crossed her mind, prompting her to add, âAnd to our little ones, Colby and Destinee.
â
At the mention of their children, Nathanâs arms tightened slightly.
âDonât include Colby and Destinee.
Canât your love be just for me?â
Despite knowing that his longing to dominate Lucindaâs affection was both childish and selfish, Nathan couldnât suppress the feeling.
Lucindaâs mouth twitched slightly as she felt at a loss for words.
Then, abruptly, she lifted her hand from his back and smacked his buttocks.
She surprisingly enjoyed the sensation of the smack.
It made a loud and sensual sound.
She then scolded him sternly, âSo, you see our own kids as rivals for affection? Looks like someone needs a bit of discipline.

Nathan eased his hold on Lucinda, then bent down and swept her into his arms.
His dark eyes burned with intensity.
âWith several hours to spare before the afternoon duties, letâs head back to our N&L Fairy Land.
You can school me in any way you see fit and in any position you desire.
â
Even though she should be used to his flirtatious talks by now, Lucindaâs cheeks still flushed from his teasing.
His words were irresistibly seductive, naughty, and brimming with desire.
Lucinda poked his head with her fingertip.
âJokes on you! We are not even home yet.
â
Nathan seemed completely fine with her lecturing.
He quickened his pace as he was eager to return to their N&L Fairy Land and enjoy a perfect midday retreat with Lucinda.
Meanwhile, the issue with Mylo had been resolved, as he was now detained in the detention room of the National Security Bureau, awaiting his judicial trial.
Since Ronan was rescued, Nathan hadnât bothered to ask about him again.
Whether Ronan was alive or dead no longer concerned him.
Nathan had also cleared out all of Nortonâs spies from the National Security Bureau.
While he never explicitly said it, the message was clear: he intended for Norton to retire, live a good life, and stay out of their affairs from there on out.
It was time for Norton to stop meddling in the younger generationâs business.
Since the meeting at the ancestral temple, Nathan hadnât gone to see Norton again.
He was occupied with passing on his work responsibilities and making sure trustworthy people look after his babies.
This was essential for him to join Hilliard and Jennifer on their journey without any concerns.
