Lucinda slowly opened the door and saw Brinleigh standing by the window at the other end of the hallway.

He stared at her in silence.

“I want to dip my toes in the real estate industry, but I barely know anything about it.

I need your assistance.

It’s really important to me.

So please, you have to help me.

” She rested against the window and closed it slightly.

He furrowed his brows but refrained from questioning her intentions.

“I do have some knowledge about this industry.

I’ll gather some information and put it together in a pamphlet for you.

Feeling grateful for his commitment to helping her, Lucinda thanked him and returned to her room, content.

With the assistance of insiders, implementing her plan would become much smoother.

Satisfied, she drifted off to sleep.

Up in the mountains where Forden and Gliethien meet, there was someone still suffering from sleeplessness.

Nathaniel sat in the car, smoking one cigarette after another and gazing out of the window with a grim expression.

He had been scouring the area for Lucinda for two days.

But there was still no sign of her.

Despite the lack of evidence, he refused to believe that she was dead.

He was determined to replace her and bring her back to Forden with him.

“Sir, when can we head back?” one of Nathaniel’s men asked, his voice groggy with exhaustion.

Nathaniel shot him a cold glare.

“We’re heading back when we replace her,” he replied firmly.

The man fell silent.

Another one of Nathaniel’s men spoke up, nervously asking, “It’s been days since Miss Ross jumped off the plane.

There are wolves and other wild animals out here.

What if she…”

“No ‘ifs’,” Nathaniel interrupted sharply.

“Even if Lucinda is dead, I’m bringing her body back.

If anyone dares to ask that question again, they’ll have to deal with my wrath.

Nathaniel’s words were said in a calm manner, but his tone was icy and fierce.

This caused the rest of his men to tremble in fear and retreat to rest.

As they gradually dozed off, Nathaniel remained wide awake in his car, his eyes fixed on the scenery outside.

Meanwhile, in the Roberts family mansion, the lights were still on.
