Billionaire Ex-wife: I Can't Live Without You
Chapter 1744

On the opposite side of the bed, Colby also joined in the laughter.

Nathan was stunned.

His expression grew dark as he shot a disapproving look at the twins.

How could they find so much joy in seeing their father getting scolded and slapped?

Two naughty kids!

Seeing the delight on their little faces, Lucinda’s heart melted.

She delivered an even firmer slap on Nathan’s palm.

Colby and Destinee’s smiles widened with glee.

Nathan was at a loss for words.

He raised his head to gaze at Lucinda and protested, “Are they on your side too, wanting to see you bully me?”

With a smile, Lucinda raised his hand, revealing only a faint red mark on his palm.

She then leaned down, planted a gentle ki*s on his palm, and patiently addressed them, “Your daddy got beaten because he made a mistake.

When you grow up, you can help Mommy keep an eye on him and help him learn from his mistakes.

”

Nathan was too stunned to speak.

Seeing the gloom on his face, Lucinda almost couldn’t help but chuckle.

“Okay, I’m just teasing.

You’re such a wonderful husband.

I can’t bear to beat you.

”

Nathan thought she wasn’t telling the truth.

Whenever she got upset with him, she’d discipline him quite

sternly.

But he simply hung his head and stayed silent.

Both of them remained with the twins for a long time.

They only told Zenia to come inside after the babies had drifted off to sleep.

Nathan held Lucinda’s hand and they walked to the master bedroom together.

With a serious expression, she inquired, “How’s the progress with the investigation?”

“The drug Kyson provided us has been identified as an illicit drug capable of harming human nerves.

Mekhi wielded it to control his mother and sister, and he also enlisted Kyson to poison me.

I’ve instructed Sonny to swiftly gather all the evidence of his crime.

Barring any unexpected setbacks, he should be in the interrogation room for questioning tomorrow.

”

Lucinda nodded.

“It’s time to bring this to a close.

Prolonging it only leads to more complications.

Mekhi isn’t fit to lead the Shaw family.

He’s brought nothing but misery to them.

”

“Honey, you are absolutely right,” Nathan whispered in her ear in a hoarse voice.

She sensed his playfulness.

“Stop, we should get some rest now.

Tomorrow, we have a lot on our plate.

You need to conserve your energy.

”
