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

Chapter 2011

Lucinda wasted no time in following.

However, before she could catch up, Nala triggered a switch on the wall.

Instantly, a massive metal cage descended, trapping them both.

Lucinda, unfazed, inquired, “What are you planning this time?”

Nala’s smile was innocent yet her intentions were far from it.

She tipped over an oil can, spilling its contents across the floor.

Facing Lucinda, her voice was cold.

“Being taken back to the Simmons family by you is a fate worse than death.

You’d never let me go.

So, dying together seems preferable, don’t you think?”

Lucinda’s composure didn’t waver.

“If I don’t step out within ten minutes, it’s not just me who is at risk.

Danilo, who’s out there trying to save you, will never leave Cadiered if Nathan gets wind of this,” Lucinda stated.

Appearing nonchalant, Nala toyed with a lighter.

“Danilo never loved me.

If Nathan ends him, he has only his own greed to blame.

We were just using each other.

”

Lucinda eyed the spreading oil warily, stepping back to avoid it.
