Lucinda secretly sighed, knowing that the real issue here was not just about work.


    She grappled with her thoughts, her desires also yearning for a trip.


    After a moment, she responded, “Nathan mentioned he’s currently dealing with someplex issues at the National Security Bureau.


    When I get back, I’ll discuss it with him.


    If you’re ready to go soon, don’t hold off on our ount.


    Just enjoy your trip.


    ”


    Jennifer and Hilliard exchanged a look of understanding.


    “We’re not in any rush,” Jennifer assured her.


    “We’ve had a hectic few days with all the activities, so a little downtime would do us good too.


    We can wait for you.


    ”


    They continued chatting about everyday matters for a while.Content is property of N?velDrama.Org.


    Recognizing the need to respect Lucinda’s time at work, Hilliard and Jennifer soon took their leave after finishing their tea.


    Left alone in her office, Lucinda’s thoughts inevitably drifted back to Nathan and the unresolved issue of his parents’ car ident.


    She knew it weighed heavily on him, disrupting his sleep and consuming his thoughts.


    Wishing she could aid him, Lucinda picked up the phone and dialed a contact at Dark Bell.


    “I need you to look into something… Also, find out what Mylo and his family were up to on the day of the car ident,” she instructed.


    On the other end of the line, Zaniyah hesitated.


    “Madam, it’s been over twenty years since that incident, and the evidence has Likely dispersed.


    Investigating the Payne family’s activities from that far back won’t be straightforward.


    ”


    After a moment’s silence, Lucinda resolved to press forward, instructing firmly, “Focus on the activities of Mylo and his family that day.


    I need to know what they were doing.


    Please hurry.


    ”


    “Okay, madam,” came the reply.


    After ending the call, Lucinda sat back, deep in thought.


    Mylo had been using this incident as leverage to coerce Nathan into releasing Ronan, serving his own objectives in the process.


    She wasn’t sure how much Norton was aware of the situation.


    However, it was evident that the truth behind the ident wasn’t widely known.


    Given Mylo’s apparent familiarity with the details, Lucinda spected whether he might be involved in some way.


    After some deliberation, she decided to reach out to Uma to arrange a meeting with Jeff.


    Only through Jeff’s response could she hope to ascertain Mylo’s exact role in the matter.


    Uma promptly answered Lucinda’s call.


    After exchanging a few pleasantries, Lucinda cut to the chase.


    “Uma, what has Jeff been up totely? I’m eager to catch up with him.


    Is he avable?”


    Confused, Uma asked, “Why do you want to see my father so suddenly? He was out of town on a business trip.


    I’m not certain when he will return, possibly in about a week.


    ”


    “On a business trip?” Lucinda furrowed her brow, lost in thought.
