“What?” Lucinda’s brow furrowed in confusion.


    Leaving him alone in bed? Come on! Weren’t they together in bed just previously?


    Lucinda questioned gently, “Didn’t we agree not to be intimate tonight? Why can’t I y games?”


    ncing at Lucinda’s phone, Nathan noticed a message from her gaming partner, inquiring why she wasn’t ying.


    “I didn’t insist on intimacy tonight, but… spending time with me doesn’t sh with ying games.


    I’m right here, willing to game with you.


    But instead, you’re ying with Cyrus’s fiancée.


    Do you think that’s fair, Lucinda?”


    As Lucinda received another game notification, she nodded absentmindedly and resumed ying.


    Nathan sighed deeply and gently ced the whip in front of Lucinda’s eyes again.


    Its presence was impossible to ignore, even if Lucinda tried to avert her gaze.


    In a somber tone, Nathan murmured, “It’s my fault that my wife doesn’t want to y with me.


    I’ll punish myself by using this whip for as long as she continues to y.


    ”


    “Hey, don’t,” Lucinda interjected, reaching out to stop him.


    Meeting Nathan’s discontented gaze, Lucinda sought apromise.


    “I won’t y with Noelle after this round.


    I’ll let you join me in the game.


    How does that sound?”


    Seeing that he had achieved his goal of having Lucinda spend time with him, Nathan nodded, allowing her to finish up this round of the game.


    “Alright, I’ll wait for you.


    ”


    Lucinda gestured toward the whip.


    “Put it away, please.


    It’s unsettling.


    ”


    Nathan tossed the whip back into the closet decisively.


    Sitting behind Lucinda, he wrapped his arms around her waist, silently observing as she finished the game.


    Once more, the triumphant echoes of victory filled the air, signaling another sessful conquest in the game.


    With nimble fingers, Lucinda swiftly tapped out a message to Noelle, expressing her inability to continue the gaming session and gently urging her friend to retire early for the night.


    As Nathan had anticipated, he seamlessly assumed control, stepping in to fill the void left by Noelle’s departure.


    Shortly after, a message popped up on Nathan’s phone screen.


    It was from Cyrus.


    The message box contained only two words.Content is property of N?velDrama.Org.


    “Hello, mentor.


    ”


    “Good boy!” With a smirk dancing upon his lips, Nathan responded.


    Unperturbed by the potential reaction from Cyrus, Nathan quickly closed the MSN messenger, refocusing his attention on the cherished moments of ying games with Lucinda.
