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

Chapter 1972

The room was filled with dust.

They gently laid her on the floor, where she rested on her side.

As one bodyguard turned to leave, a glimpse of movement from Lucinda’s face, previously pressed against the floor, caught his attention.

He paused, looking back.

In the open space in front of the factory, Nala was engaged in a soft-spoken conversation with Danilo.

With a grave expression, Danilo found himself unable to voice the harsh words that lingered on his tongue.

Instead, he expressed his concerns in a whisper.

“Why must you capture her? Do you intend to harm her? She’s not only Cadiered’s wealthiest woman but also holds a unique status.

Her husband is Nathan, and remember, this is Cadiered.

Should anything befall her, I might evade the consequences, but your safety isn’t guaranteed.

”

His objections to the kidnapping had been strong, yet over the phone, words failed him, forcing him to bow to Nala’s wishes for the moment.

His questioning was gentle, yet it seemed to strike a nerve with Nala, whose eyes suddenly brimmed with tears, rendering her appearance both pitiable and endearing.

“Oh, my dear, why the tears?” he said, his tone softening further.

“I didn’t mean to rebuke you.

It’s your well-being that worries me.
