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

What was wrong with him? Was he a masochist?

Lucinda spoke her mind for the first time, “I imagined we would be strangers after the divorce, but your mother, sister and your beloved fiancee refused to let me go.

You even sent Flynn to kill me because of Eleanor.

Why should I give you another chance? How dare you even ask?”

Nathaniel was shocked.

“Wait! What did you say?”

Flynn was sent to kill her?

When?

She ignored his question though.

“In my eyes, you are merely my servant.

When our contract expires, I will let you go.

We’ll be even, and you’ll be a free man.

”

Be even?

“You mean once I pay off my debt, we can move on and start over?”

Nathaniel said, delighted.

Lucinda sneered.

“I don’t know why you now pretend to love me.

The day I divorced you, you lost any chance to get back with me.

Now don’t you see how ridiculous this is?”

She stood up and turned around to leave.

“Don’t go! Please!”

Nathaniel tried to grab her wrist again, but he was too weak and fell to the floor.

His knees took most of the impact, and he bit back a sob, unwilling to show her how much pain it caused him.

It hurt so much that he couldn’t speak for a while.

It was a few seconds later before he regained control of himself.

“I’m sorry.

You stayed with me and my family for the three years of our marriage.

Yet I didn’t recognize the girl who saved me in Pine Street.

It’s my fault.

I apologize.

I understand if you can’t forgive me.

But you said I sent Flynn to kill you.

I swear that I didn’t!”

Lucinda sneered.

He acted so humble in front of her.

But his “affection” didn’t fool her.

“Yes, I saved you, but it meant nothing.

I never wanted payback.

If I had known that the boy in the car was you and what you would have done to me years later, I might have left you there.

Don’t read anything more into that simple act.

It humiliates us both.

”

She finished her words and mercilessly shook off his hand.

Before leaving, she threatened him, “Stay in the hospital and recuperate.

If you refuse treatment again, you will bear the consequences!”

When Lucinda left, a doctor entered the ward.
