<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Chapter 846 A Misunderstanding</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Are you okay?” Eric asked.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Lucille’s cheeks flushed a deep shade of red as she shook her head. “I’m fine.”</font></font>Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Anyone would blush when faced with a handsome guy</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Lucilleforted herself, musing that Mason was actually quite handsome too.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">As she was lost in her thoughts, unbeknownst to her, Mason and Nathaniel had already driven over to her location.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">While in the car, Mason was still exining to Nathaniel, “He’s just a young, pretty–faced celebrity. I’ve been so preupied withpany matters recently that Ipletely forgot about him. Somehow, he managed to sneak back from Alendor again.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">He had been calm andposed when he spoke those words, but that changed the moment he reached the foot of the mountain. From a distance, he saw his fiancée being helped by a young, handsome man, her cheeks flushed. Instantly, a surge of anger shed in his eyes.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“This guy!”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Mason was too preupied to pay attention to Nathaniel. “Mr. Rainsworth,” he said, “I need to attend to something first, please wait for me.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Okay.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Mason stepped out of the car, heading straight toward Lucille.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">The two had already let go of each other by now.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Lucille hadn’t realized that Mason had stormed over in a huff.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Thank you, Eric,” she said, a hint of embarrassment in her voice as she expressed her gratitude.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">No wonder Eric was a superstar, he was genuinely a good person and not aloof at all.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“It’s nothing, no need for thanks-”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Before he could finish speaking, a fist swung past his face. Had it not been for some training he’d done in the past, that punch would have surely disfigured him.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Toy boy!”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Where was Mason’s refined demeanor now? Once again, he was ready to throw a punch.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Seeing this, Lucille rushed over and wrapped her arms around him. “What are you doing, Mason?” she eximed.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Mason stopped. “Lucy, what were you guys up to just now?”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“I almost tripped just now, thank goodness for Eric’s help. Why did you start hitting as soon as you came over?”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Themotion over here had also caught the attention of Cecilia and her group.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Vivian and Zachary had ceased their bickering.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“What’s wrong?”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Everyone came over to ask.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Mr. Sanders, what brings you here? Are you worried about Lucy?” asked Cecilia.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">It dawned on Mason that he had misunderstood, realizing he had been assessed the situation properly earlier.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Lucille was not willing to let it go just like that. “Apologize now,” she demanded.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">If Mason had truly hurt Eric, she would indeed be filled with remorse.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Mason knew he was in the wrong and was gracious enough to admit it. In front of everyone, he apologized to Eric, “I’m sorry for the misunderstanding earlier. I saw you helping my fiancée and thought you had other intentions.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“No worries.” Eric was quite magnanimous.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Zachary was off to the side, already aware that this male celebrity was up to no good.</font></font>
However, it was surprising to see that Mason would go to such lengths for a woman.
“Mason, did youe alone?”
Elliot also rushed over. “Mr. Sanders, did my dade too?”
Had they not asked, Mason almost forgot about Nathaniel. He pointed toward the luxury car at the foot of the mountain.
“Mr. Rainsworth is in the car. I’ll bring him over now.”
Upon hearing Elliot’s mention of the word ‘Dad‘, Eric’s eyes narrowed, fixed intently on the luxury car not far from the base of the mountain.
Cecilia’s husband, Nathaniel!
He already had someone look into it, but he had never seen Nathaniel with his own eyes.
Mason went to pick up Nathaniel.
Due to his routine checkup, Nathaniel arrivedte that day. By the time he reached the Smith residence, everyone had already left.
Thankfully, Elliot had sent their location to Nathaniel, otherwise they wouldn’t have been able to find this ce.
Redbud Hill was vast. If one were to simply climb the mountain in search of someone, they might search for several months without sess.
Nathaniel sat quietly in the car When Mason arrived he was informed that Cecilia was already halfway the hill.
“What were you up to just now?” Nathaniel was also curious.
Mason was somewhat embarrassed. “There was a misunderstanding just now, I thought Eric was going to harm Lucy.”
Nathaniel’s brows furrowed slightly. His assistant seemed to be ying both sides of the field now. Hadn’t he just dismissed Eric as a mere pretty face, unworthy of concern?
Nathaniel didn’t ask any further questions, he simply got out of the car.
