He was relieved he had put on his suit jacket; she hadn’t noticed his bruises.


    Had he been wearing pajamas, her keen eye would have caught on.


    Twenty minutes passed, and Lucinda, now dressed in her everyday attire with light makeup, walked hand in hand with Nathan as they headed out.


    He drove her to the Simmons Group.


    Once she hadpletely vanished from his view, he adopted a solemn expression and firmly rolled up the window.


    He retrieved his phone and dialed Aldric, recounting everything that transpiredst night.


    Aldric stayedposed upon hearing that.


    He exined, “When she has a rpse, she loses control.


    After she wakes up, she can’t remember what she did, but that doesn’t mean she stops thinking.


    Breaking the tablemp is like a release for her.


    It’s her way of letting out steam at that moment.


    ”


    Nathan got it.


    He felt a tad disappointed, but at the same time, he counted himself fortunate.


    Thankfully, Lucinda didn’t have any intention of using her mental condition as an excuse to torment him intentionally.


    He remained silent.


    Aldric went on, “Head over to theb.


    You got roughed upst night.


    Is it bad? Let me check on you.


    Also, grab a couple of potent sedatives with you.


    You never know, just as a precaution.


    ”


    “Okay,” Nathan replied in agreement and promptly made his way to theb.


    Once there, he only removed his shirt for Aldric to examine his wounds.


    Aldric sighed in relief.


    “You’re alright.


    Just some surface wounds.


    But getting beaten up like that must have hurt, right?”


    Nathan red at him with frustration and retorted, “Feel free to give it a shot.


    Then you’ll see if it hurts.


    ”


    Aldric twitched his lips.


    “Never mind.


    I’m not exactly in the best shape and a fragile doctor.


    A fewshes, and I’d probably faint.


    My pain threshold is Lower than yours.


    ”


    Nathan furrowed his brow and fixed a cold gaze on him.


    Feeling the warning in Nathan’s demeanor, Aldric let out a chuckle and gave him a friendly pat on the shoulder.


    “No need to get me wrong.


    I’mplimenting you on your good health.


    You’ve got impressive stamina and solid physical strength…”


    “That’s enough of your pliments!!”


    Aldric quickly changed the subject and handed Nathan a special anti-inmmatory cream.


    “This will work better than the one you have at home, but brace yourself.


    It’s going to sting on those wounds.


    ”


    Nathan epted it.


    To him, it was the medicine he needed most at the moment, as it could speed up his recovery from the injuries.


    As Nathan prepared to leave theb, Aldric gave onest piece of advice.


    “Nate, if she loses control again tonight, don’t just stand there and take it.


    You’re still healing.


    Getting hit again will be agonizing.


    You might want to find a chance to use a tranquilizer on her.N?velD(ram)a.?rg owns this content.

    Nathan nodded and left with determination.
