âGraham found him in the mountains near Forden and Gliethien.
â
Their eldest brother, Graham Simmons, had connections in both the government and the underworld.
His information network surpassed that of Dark Bellâs.
It wasnât surprising that he was able to find Nathaniel.
Butâ¦
âWhatâs he doing there?â
Cyrus didnât answer at first.
It seemed he had something weighing down on him.
It didnât take long before Lucinda connected all the dots.
After thinking it over, she shook her head in amusement.
âDoes he think Iâm dead? Is that why he went there? To look for my body? I canât believe he refuses to let even my corpse go!â
Hearing that, Cyrus could only cough awkwardly.
âIt seems heâs stranded there.
But Iâm guessing it wonât be long before he comes back to Forden; a week at most.

The smile on Lucindaâs face stiffened a little.
One week was a tight deadline.
If Tess didnât move fast enough and Nathaniel came back in time to preside over the situation, it would be difficult for her to make the Roberts Group go bankrupt.
Cyrus sensed her anxiety.
âSo whatâre you going to do next?â he asked gently.
Lucinda raised her head to look at Cyrus and smiled.
âIâll give him a big âsurpriseâ on the day he comes back.
â
Looking at the fierce determination in her eyes, Cyrus lowered his head with a guilty conscience.
In fact, there were two other things he was hiding from Lucindaâ¦
Firstly, that it was Graham who had sent people to stall Nathaniel.
Graham had disliked Nathaniel for a long time, and now was a good chance for him to teach his little sisterâs ex-husband a Lesson.
Secondly, the reason why Nathaniel had gone to the mountains in the first place was not because he had bad intent, but because he wanted to save Lucinda.
If Lucinda looked into it carefully, she would find out that Flynnâs hijacking had nothing to do with Nathaniel.
Unfortunately for Nathaniel, she didnât want to dig any deeper.
She would rather believe that Nathaniel had planned all of this.
Cyrus opened his mouth and seemed to want to say something.
