Restlessness consumed Lucinda as she sat at her desk.

She propped her chin up with her hands and her gaze was fixated on the rain outside the window.

Nathan’s strange behavior the night before replayed in her mind like a looping animation.

This made her pay no attention to Vivian’s report which was before her.

It suddenly dawned on her that when she kicked Nathan out of bed, he groaned in pain.

He always had high tolerance for pain, capable of enduring pain without showing it.

Well, unless he deliberately wanted to act like he was in pain to gain her sympathy.

But he was physically stronger and a skilled fighter.

How could she have managed to easily kick him out of bed?

The more she pondered, the more she sensed that something was amiss.

All the signs pointed to the possibility of him being injured.

He was so weak that she was about to kick him out of bed.

The realization struck her, and she pounded the table in frustration.

Her anger last night had blinded her to this.

But, after reflecting, she became convinced that something must be wrong with him.

Vivian was startled by the sudden outburst.

“Miss Simmons, did I say something wrong?”

“No.

Lucinda snapped back to reality and grabbed her bag.

“I have something to attend to.

You can continue the report when I return.

If I don’t make it back, then we’ll discuss it tomorrow.

The rain got heavier, pouring down relentlessly.

In the president’s office of Payne Group, Nathan sat wearily in front of the window.

His eyes were dull, devoid of their usual vitality.

As he gazed at the raindrop trails on the window, memories of Kyson’s words came rushing back to him.

“Long-term presence of the virus in your body leads to consequences.

Eventually, you’ll become disabled.

Sure, she may sympathize with you in the short term, but as time goes by…

From the moment that virus entered your system, you can’t possibly measure up to her with your frail body!

If I can’t be with her, neither can you!”
