His frustration grew with every thought,pelling him to approach Noelle and firmly take her wrist.


    “We’re leaving.


    It’s time to go home.


    ”


    His grip was so tight that Noelle felt the intensity of his anger.


    Powerless to free herself, she looked back at Lucinda, silently pleading for help.


    Upon noticing Noelle’s silent plea for help, Lucinda was hesitant to intervene.


    She understood theplexities of a rtionship between engaged partners.


    Yet, she couldn’t help but offer her advice.


    “Cyrus, please remember Noelle is still learning.


    Be patient with her and bolster her confidence.


    Try not to overwhelm her.


    It’s important to have a constructive conversation once you’re home.


    ”


    Cyrus acknowledged with a solemn, “Alright, I’ll do that.


    ”


    Subsequently, Noelle reluctantly entered the opulent vehicle.


    The vehicle’s departure sliced through the quiet of the night, its roar fading into the lunar glow.


    Lucinda exhaled, her mind racing with concerns about Cyrus’s approach toforting Noelle upon their return.Têxt belongs to N?velDrama.Org.


    Nathan, sensing her anxiety, offered her somefort.


    “Don’t worry about it.


    It’s their issue to resolve.


    ”


    Lucinda acknowledged with a nod, yet her worry was palpable.


    “Cyrus seemed really upset tonight.


    Do you think they’ll end up arguing?”


    “I doubt that will happen,” Nathan reassured her, taking her hand to lead her away.


    Curious, Lucinda inquired further, “How can you be so certain? Did you discuss anything on your way here?”


    Nathan paused, reflecting on the brief exchange he’d had with Cyrus, where he’d urged him to treat his fiancée kindly and to maintain harmony in their rtionship without intruding on his and Lucinda’s peace.


    “Why the silence?” Lucinda pressed.


    “It was just casual talk.


    I reminded him to be considerate,” Nathan finally shared.


    Feeling somewhat relieved by Nathan’s words, Lucinda trusted Cyrus would heed the advice.


    They then headed back to their home in N&L Fairy Land, opting to bypass their usual living area for the basement, their unconventional choice for a bedroom that night.


    Before entering, Lucinda expressed her fears.


    “Darling, if my condition worsens tonight, and we end up shing, will you manage?


    Won’t you get hurt or be too worn out?”


    Nathan was momentarily taken aback.


    Her initial concerns seemed reasonable, but her subsequent remarks puzzled him, sparking a yful defiance in him.


    Lifting her chin, he challenged, “Are you questioning my capability? It seems I must prove my strength.


    ”


    Lucinda’sughter filled the air, her tone shifting to yful caution.


    “Just be careful not to overdo it.


    I’ll be checking for any injuries tomorrow.


    Don’t think you can deceive me.


    ”


    Nathan’s touch gracefully transitioned from Lucinda’s chin down to her waist, enveloping her slender form with gentle assurance.


    Drawing her near, their proximity eliminated any distance between them.


    Lucinda found herself leaning into his embrace.
