Billionaire Ex-wife: I Can't Live Without You
Chapter 43

Caught off-guard, Nathaniel felt the full force of the punch.

He groaned in pain and was forced to take a few steps back.

The metallic taste of blood filled his mouth, forcing him to spit it out.

Cyrus had pulled Lucinda behind him.

When she saw Nathaniel’s busted lip, worry flashed in her eyes.

But the next second, she realized that that her brother had done a good job protecting her from her harasser, and she no longer felt sorry for Nathaniel.

Since Nathaniel dared to bully her, he had to be ready to face the consequences.

He deserved a punch in the face and more!

“I heard that you already have a new girlfriend, so why do you keep pestering your ex-wife? Isn’t that improper?” Cyrus smiled at Nathaniel innocently, as though he hadn’t socked the latter in the face just now.

Nathaniel looked at Cyrus fiercely.

Even though his face was swollen and bruising, he still looked tough.

“That doesn’t change the fact that she used to be my wife.

But who are you to protect my ex-wife?”

He deliberately stressed the word “my”, like a proud lion making a declaration of his sovereignty in front of an enemy who coveted his prey.

The smile on Cyrus’ face had faded away.

He opened his mouth and was about to say that he was her brother.

But he caught himself in time, because Lucinda suddenly gripped his arm tightly.

So he changed his tune and snorted, “Mr.

Roberts, Lucinda has her own free mind.

She has the right to choose whoever she wants to be with.

You don’t own her!”

The two men stared daggers at each other.

Neither of them wanted to back down.

If looks could kill, then both of them would’ve died a thousand times over.

But they managed to restrain the urge to lash out at each other’s throats.

The tension between them was so thick, one could’ve sliced through it with a knife.

Their silent battle was driving Lucinda crazy.

This was her first day at work, and she was exhausted.

All she wanted to do was to end this drama as soon as possible.

So she coughed loudly to break the stalemate.

“It’s getting late, and we still have work tomorrow.

I’m going now.

”

Seeing that Lucinda was about to leave, Nathaniel strode forward to stop her.

But Cyrus stopped him.

He gave Nathaniel a grave warning with his eyes.

After all, Nathaniel was on Cyrus’ turf now, and he couldn’t afford to go too far.

So Nathaniel changed tactics and smiled at Lucinda charmingly.

“You haven’t eaten yet, right? Why don’t we have a little chat over dinner?”

Lucinda looked at him as though he was crazy.
