Billionaire Ex-wife: I Can't Live Without You
Chapter 1952

He Looked at her intently.

“I worry about you managing everything in my absence, so I’ve arranged for Colby, Destinee, and Zenia to stay at my grandfather’s.

If you miss the children, you’re welcome to visit them there.

Moreover, even though you’ve shown improvement, your recovery isn’t complete.

My concern for you has led me to discuss arrangements with Aldric.

Instead of returning to N&L Fairy Land alone, you’ll stay at the lab.

Aldric has agreed to oversee your care, as there’s a treatment ward available there.

The signal at the border is unreliable, so my responses to your messages might be delayed.

Please, take care of yourself and wait for my return.

”

Lucinda reached up to touch Nathan’s cheek, offering comfort.

“There’s no need to worry about me.

This is Cadiered; nobody would dare harm me.

I promise to avoid any unnecessary risks until you’re back.

”

Following this exchange, they shared a heartfelt hug and ki*s, bidding each other farewell.

Their moment was soon interrupted by Sonny, who knocked gently.

“Mr.

Payne, we should leave now to reach the border on time and secure our accommodation.

”

Understanding the urgency, Lucinda and Nathan reluctantly separated.

Lucinda walked Nathan to the door, watching as he and Sonny turned a corner and disappeared from view.

With Nathan having made arrangements for her well-being, Lucinda felt staying at N&L Fairy Land by herself was pointless.

She returned to her room, pack

ed a few essentials, and set off for the laboratory.

There, Aldric had prepared a simple ward for her stay.

The room was sparsely furnished, with only a bed and a bedside table.

Aldric expressed his regret.

“I’m sorry, Lucinda.

Our resources here are quite limited.

We can’t offer a more comfortable or secure ther@peutic environment at the moment.

Please, bear with us for the duration of Nathan’s trip.

”

Lucinda reassured him with a smile, “Don’t apologize.

Staying in the lab for a few nights is no hardship for me.

I’ve been in far less hospitable places.

This is more than adequate; it’s clean and orderly.

”

To prevent any potential health setbacks during the night, Aldric administered an IV drip to Lucinda, adjusting the dosage as needed for her care.

Given his medical expertise, Aldric knew he lacked the physical strength to manage Lucinda if her condition worsened.

Therefore, he called upon the bodyguards to monitor her closely.

Unexpectedly, Lucinda struggled to sleep.

Accustomed to Nathan’s presence since their marriage, his absence and the unfamiliar surroundings made it challenging for her to find rest alone.

The ordeal of the first night eventually passed.

The following day, Lucinda proceeded to work at Simmons Group as usual.

The sleepless night left her wary of resting or napping at work, fearing a possible relapse during sleep.

Her solution was to rely on coffee for a semblance of alertness.

Meanwhile, at Peace Mountain mansion, Violeta assisted Graham in a significant act of contrition at the ancestral temple that afternoon, marking the start of his path to redemption.

Enduring twenty lashes, Graham emerged panting, his shirt stained with blood.

Throughout the ordeal, he remained silent, accepting the punishment without protest or complaint.

Violeta, deeply moved and unable to contain her emotions, wept as they returned to the villa.
