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

Chapter 1661

With Nathan present, he clenched his fists and endured the pain in silence, refraining from retaliation.

Lucinda raised her hand again.

All she wanted was for Mekhi to die.

Before she could slap Mekhi a third time, Nathan intervened, “Enough, Lucinda.

Let’s hear him out first.

”

Nathan held her in his arms, comforting her with tenderness.

He then gently blew on her reddened palm to alleviate the pain and softly massaged it with his fingertips.

Mekhi pursed his lips, wiped away the blood from his mouth, and began to explain, “I’ve contacted a doctor to check on her previously.

The doctor informed me that she had recently suffered from a severe fever and cold, which had affected her brain nerves.

Consequently, she developed mental health issues and a tendency toward self-harm.

I’m genuinely concerned that she might harm herself again, which is why I’ve confined her to the top floor and arranged for doctors and nurses to care for her.

”

Lucinda remained skeptical of his explanation.

“Just a short while ago, Noelle returned to this house.

Prior to her return, Cyrus had taken her to the hospital for a thorough physical examination, which confirmed her good health.

Also, as someone who grew up in an orphanage, she’s endured more than most and has a stronger physique than other girls.

She’s only been back here for a week.
