Removing the note, she looked at it closely.


    It was a message from Nathan.


    “I’ve made breakfast for you before leaving, Lucinda.


    Shrimp porridge and noodles are waiting.


    Remember to eat before heading towards the ind.


    ”


    Why would Nathan bother cooking breakfast for her when he left so early?


    How long had he slept? And when did he wake up?


    Lucinda could sense her husband’s meticulous care, which warmed her heart.


    Leaving the basement, she made her way to the kitchen, where the aroma of shrimp porridge greeted her as expected.


    The scent of the noodles was especially enticing, evoking a sense of gluttony just from the smell alone.


    Opening the cupboard for bowls, she discovered another note tucked beside them.

    “You don’t need to worry about washing the dishes after breakfast.


    I’ll take care of the cleanup when I return in the evening.


    There are still some fruits on the table that I’ve already washed.


    Remember to eat them all and replenish your vitamins.

    A smile spread across Lucinda’s face as she couldn’t help but feel touched by Nathan’s thoughtfulness.


    She leaned down to ki*s the note, silent


    asual attire, noticing Sonny waiting for her at the gate of the N&L Fairy Land, clearly having been there for some time.


    Together, they departed from the Paynes’ house and headed towards the small ind by the sea.


    News of their departure reached Graham immediately.


    Lucinda’s ns to go to the ind and bring back N were kept a secret from Graham and Violeta.


    Graham knew about her ns from a message he received from an unknown number, though he had investigated it a few days prior.This content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org.


    Judging from the sender’s tone, he suspected it was N.


    Before he left the room, Violeta halted him with a firm grip.


    “Lucinda can handle it herself.


    Why are you involved in it? Convincing her to let go of N? Is that your intention, to bring her misery?”


    Graham, perplexed, questioned, “Why would you say that, dear? Lucinda is my sister.


    Naturally, I want to assist her.


    ”


    With a weary sigh, Violeta responded, “Your rtionship with Lucinda has always been strained.


    I fear your involvement might onlyplicate matters further.


    ”


    In a strained tone, Graham deliberated, “Today, Lucinda ventured to the ind solely with Sonny and his men.


    Nathan didn’t apany her due to business obligations.


    No matter his workload, he wouldn’t neglect her Like this.


    Something doesn’t add up.


    Especially since the information came from Valerie, who always has an agenda.


    If Nathan isn’t with Lucinda, I have to go.


    It could be dangerous.


    ”


    Violeta grasped the gravity of his words.


    “In that case, I’ll apany you.


    I promise to remain silent, no matter what.


    Besides, your legs haven’t fully recovered yet.


    It’s safer for me to assist you on this journey.
