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

After a moment, she looked up with a bright smile and asked, Are you hungry? Let me prepare something for you.

We can eat when the other two gentlemen return.

No, thank you, Nathan declined.

Im not planning to stay for Lunch.

Youre leaving then? He nodded, offering a regretful smile.

Yes.

Sorry for the inconvenience, and Id like to make it up to you by inviting you out to a meal in the downtown area.

What? Hilda blinked in surprise, sensing his intention.

What do you mean? Before she could get her bearings, Nathan reached out swiftly, his hand aiming for her neck in a sudden gesture.

With a muffled grunt, Hilda staggered back, only to be caught by Lucinda as she passed out.

Lucinda fixed Nathan with a piercing look.

What are you trying to do? Nathans expression was serious as he replied, You said earlier in the field that you wouldnt leave without Hilda.

So, lets all head back to Stastle together.

Lucinda raised her eyebrows and asked, What if I dont want to go with you? Nathan replied without missing a beat, Then I guess Ill have to knock you out as well.

His tone had become unexpectedly stern.

We just squared off a few hours ago.

Youre up for another round? Nathan gave a short laugh.

I held back this morning, but now? Im not so sure.

Want to test me, Lucinda? They had scuffled several times during the course of their divorce, sparking an odd sort of thrill in Lucinda.

So, she assisted Hilda onto the wooden sofa and rolled up her sleeves, ready for action.

Alright, lets see what youve got.novelbin

Nathans smile froze, his complexion turning ashen.

He couldnt bring himself to strike his wife… What if she fled? She had been hard to track down, and losing her again wasnt an option.

Moreover, he feared he might go too far.

Hurting Lucinda would ultimately mean hurting himself.

With that thought, Nathan sighed deeply.

He stepped forward, seized Lucindas wrist, stooped, and slapped himself with her hand.

Watching him, Lucinda suppressed a chuckle and asked, What on earth are you doing? Just kidding around.

Look, if you really dont want to leave, I wont make you.

If it makes you feel better, hit me.

I wont fight back.

But afterward, we should really get out of here.

Im not sure who else might be lurking around these mountains.

Its not safe.
