Chapter 1939

If Nala wasn’t interested in Graham’s good looks, her attention toward him seemed out of place to Lucinda.

Particularly unsettling was Nala’s reaction when mentioning Graham’s punishment-having to kneel while reciting the scriptures and enduring twenty lashes, resulting in his hoarse voice and swollen knees due to rheumatism.

Nala’s expression betrayed deep sympathy, and Lucinda couldn’t shake the impression that Nala felt genuinely sorry for Graham.

Lucinda pondered over why Nala would feel such empathy for someone she had just met.

Was it because Nala was inherently compassionate, or was there something more between her and Graham?

However, Lucinda recognized that these were mere speculations.

Without concrete evidence or Nala’s personal admission, she couldn’t jump to conclusions.

Lost in her thoughts, Lucinda suddenly felt herself being lifted.
