“Nathan!” He gritted his teeth, his heart brimming with contempt.

But there was a matter demanding urgent attention.

Nearly a week had passed since Noelle was taken by Lucinda.

This situation was far from good.

Suppressing his anger, Mekhi turned on his heel and went inside.

Then he summoned Sally to his study.

“Mekhi, what’s the matter?”

With a cigarette in hand, he instructed in a cold tone, “Ensure you visit Noelle at the Paynes’ house these two days.

Take the bodyguards with you and take them to her room.

“What? Lucinda always takes me to Noelle’s room alone.

There’s no way Lucinda would allow our bodyguards to enter,” she explained.

Mekhi tapped the desk angrily.

“I don’t care how, but you must find a way to get the bodyguards in and let them be alone with Noelle.

“Cyrus and the doctors may visit the room anytime.

What you’re asking me to do seems impossible.

They won’t allow me and our bodyguards to be alone with her.

He slammed his fist on the table with a bang and said harshly, “You didn’t even make an attempt! How can you give up so easily and undermine your confidence?”

Taken aback by his sudden outburst, Sally shivered and tears welled up her eyes.

Biting her pink lip, she

felt deeply wronged.

Unmoved by her distress, Mekhi said sternly, “Sally, at 21, it’s time to learn independence and how to handle challenges on your own.

This task can serve as valuable training for you to adapt.

Tapping his fingers on the table, he continued with a serious expression, “No matter what, find a way to get the bodyguards into Noelle’s room and let them be alone with her for some time.

Tears filled her eyes as she asked, “What if I couldn’t do it?”

“If you fail, the vine I used to discipline Kyson last night will be waiting for you.

How could her brother be so vicious? Sally was stunned.

“Why? How could you! Threatening to beat me over something so minor?

Am I still your favorite sister?”

“I care for you, but I won’t pamper you.

It’s a lesson for you to learn how to handle tasks independently.

His expression turned stern, offering her no opportunity to refuse.

“You’ve changed.

You’re becoming increasingly unfamiliar to me,”

Sally expressed.

She found him more and more weird and even deemed him unreasonable.

Mekhi exhaled a smoke ring and said, “I haven’t changed.

I simply indulged you so much that you never saw the real me.

Staring at him, Sally suddenly felt a cold sensation throughout her body, rendering her speechless.
