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

If he continued his search for Lucinda, even in failure, it could bring closure to his decade-long love for her.

On the other hand, if he turned around and went to the hospital to see Dulcie, he would fulfill his responsibilities in the contractual marriage.

Dulcie was ill, and as her husband, he should be there to care for her.

Under the red sunset, Kyson’s eyes betrayed a swirl of emotions.

As night descended, the moment for a decision had arrived.

His hands gripped and released the steering wheel in turn.

Finally, he took a deep breath, pressed on the accelerator, and set his jaw with a resolute determination.

“No! Please, Mr.

Payne, I was coerced into this!”

The man, now dropping all pretense of age, begged Nathan for mercy.

Nathan’s expression remained cold as he narrowed his eyes.

“Where is Cory Powell?”

“Cory Powell?” the man responded, bewildered.

“I don’t know him.

I really don’t know Cory.

”

Nathan’s anger flared.

He stomped on the man’s stomach with his dark green boot, an aura of menace surrounding him.

The man trembled in pain.

“Mr.

Payne, I really don’t know who you’re talking about.
