Billionaire Ex-wife: I Can't Live Without You
Chapter 522

Was he trying to act mysterious?

She had only been gone for two days.

Why was everyone acting weird?

Lucinda silently observed Nathaniel as she put on her slippers.

Then, she took off her coat and handed it to him.

Nathaniel froze for a few short seconds, looking stunned.

His face was still very pale.

When he finally regained his senses, he took the coat and hung it on the rack.

He didn’t say a word the entire time, a stark contrast from the man he used to be, the one who was constantly trying to please her.

Lucinda’s face darkened.

Nathaniel instinctively turned to look at the clock on the Living room wall.

It was almost noon.

He padded over to the kitchen to start cooking.

Meanwhile, Lucinda plopped down on the sofa, looking all aloof and domineering.

“Come here,” she said in a cold voice that brooked no argument.

Nathaniel froze yet again.

Then he turned around and gingerly walked over to her.

Lucinda refused to look at him and made a show of examining her manicure.

“I do recall someone once promising that I would never have to raise my head just to meet his eyes.

”

Nathaniel squirmed.

She was being deliberately cold to him.

Had Cyrus really not told her that he was the one who had saved her?

Did Lucinda return today to punish him for attending the charity party with Tess?

Nathaniel had been hoping that she would forgive him, on account of him saving her life.

But now… He couldn’t help but turn glum.

“Hey!” Lucinda snapped when Nathaniel did not respond.

She was getting increasingly impatient.

Nathaniel pulled himself together and slowly got on one knee in front of her.

He ducked his head and lowered his eyes.

Lucinda could tell that he was upset, though she wasn’t sure why.
