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

Chapter 2037

n the evening, Lucinda made her way back to N&L Fairy Land.

Nathan was absent from the National Security Bureau and appeared to have gone to the Paynes’ house.

Not wanting to trouble him to fetch her, Lucinda chose to drive back home on her own.

She proceeded directly there.

The study door was ajar.

Lucinda, puzzled by his demeanor, quietly entered the study and moved to stand behind him.

Completely absorbed in his thoughts, Nathan remained oblivious to her approach.

“Honey, what’s wrong with you? Is something bothering you?” Lucinda asked softly as she tenderly massaged his shoulders and neck with her delicate fingers.
