Just as she was about to respond, the door creaked open, revealing a man.


    She nced up and observed that the man was reasonably attractive but unremarkable in demeanor.


    It was evident from the man’s uniform, which matched the other two guards, that he was not Nathan.


    Only when the man stepped aside politely did she gain a glimpse of the study’s interior.


    A beaded curtain divided the study, with a desk and bookshelves behind it.


    The room’s ambiance was dark and somber.


    Nathan sat in an office chair, with his back facing her, and she could only make out the back of his head.


    The bodyguards stopped her from getting in.


    Breaking off the engagement was her purpose foring here, but still it wouldn’t be appropriate to trespass on Nathan’s territory.


    Therefore, she refrained from breaking in.


    Nathan cleared his throat before asking in a hoarse voice, “Miss Simmons, what brings you here today?”

    She didn’t care if he genuinely enjoyed abusing women or not.

    Merely by hearing his voice, she could visualize how unpleasant his appearance was.

    Besides, she didn’t know Nathan at all, mor did she have any emotional attachment toward him.

    Requesting another bodyguard to bring a chair for her, Lucinda sat at the doorway of the study and began conversing with Nathan.


    “I’m not sure if you know me very well,” she said.


    Nathan remained silent.


    He stirred his coffee with a spoon while holding the cup.


    Looking at the back of Nathan’s head, Lucinda spoke seriously, “I believe that with your power, you must have investigated me.


    You must be aware that I was married before and that I’m not a virgin.


    ”


    “So?” Nathan responded nonchntly, taking a sip of his coffee.


    Lucinda was perplexed.
