Nathans expression mirrored seriousness as he remarked, I suspect the man she saved three years ago might be Cory, who has been evading capture.
Cory was once an elite soldier known for his exceptional investigative and counter-investigation skills.
Capturing him would prove to be quite challenging.
He abducted Hilliards patient and had her undergo plastic surgery to resemble me, intending to confuse you, Lucinda explained with a focused intensity.
His motives and planning are glaringly apparent.
Its evident he seeks to bring you down, even if it means dragging you into his own turmoil.
But why? What kind of intense animosity do you hold against him? Lucinda inquired, probing Nathans thoughts.
Nathan fell momentarily silent, a fleeting image of a woman appearing in his mind. He bowed his head and lapsed into silence, before finally remarking, Madmen dont require reasons to commit madness.
Observing Lucindas continued contemplation, Nathan reached out and gently rubbed the back of her head, his eyes brimming with tenderness.
This issue falls under the purview of the National Security Bureau, so you shouldnt involve yourself, he advised.
Handle any business with the Simmons Group through remote meetings at the lab.
And while Im away, keep an eye on Colby and Destinee.
Cory had been lurking in the shadows, employing diverse methods and leveraging an extensive underground network.
Following Lucindas recent ordeal, Nathan no longer dared to let her venture alone to the Simmons Group.
Now, the laboratory stood as the safest haven for her.
Lucinda comprehended his apprehensions and recognized his need to return to his official responsibilities.
Dont worry.
Right now, nothing is more important than our familys safety, Lucinda reassured him.
..
Library A mad dog bites without regard for time or method, making it nearly impossible to defend against.
Neither Lucinda nor Nathan could afford the repercussions of another incident.
During their conversation, Lucindas phone suddenly rang.
Sonny was calling. At that moment, Sonny, who had been playing badminton with Aldric, Colby, and Destinee, suddenly called, suggesting it was something of importance.
Lucinda answered the phone resolutely, but before she could even inquire, Sonnys panicked voice came through from the other end.
Lucinda, Im truly sorry.
Its all my fault⦠Lucinda glanced up at Nathan and inquired, Whats the matter? I⦠I feel guilty.
Colby got hurt⦠Colby was injured!? But he had just left the bed.
Lucinda immediately asked, Where are you? Are you still at the basketball court? Sonny sent the location to Lucinda, and she and Nathan both set out immediately.
On the way, Lucinda clutched Nathans arm tightly, filled with regret.
If I had known Colby would get hurt, I would have stayed with him.
