Billionaire Ex-wife: I Can't Live Without You
Chapter 2016

As they walked, Lucinda shared Nala’s confession about her mother with Nathan.

“Even though she was a young girl, she was quite scheming at that time.

If her story holds, it’s unsettling,” Lucinda admitted, a shiver of unease passing through her.

“I doubt her claims, so I wish to have you investigate further.

”

Nathan was more than happy to accommodate Lucinda’s request.

”I can dispatch someone for this task, though I can’t guarantee success.

Given the years that have passed and your father’s efforts to bury the incident, unearthing any evidence will be challenging,” he cautioned.

Lucinda had anticipated this.

“Let’s give it a shot.

If we come up empty, we’ll accept her version as truth.

”

Together, they entered the National Security Bureau, seeking the interrogation records of Nala, Danilo, and their associates, compiled by Sonny.

Sonny promptly delivered Danilo’s file to Lucinda.

“Lucinda, he denies any involvement with Nala’s wrongdoing.

He claims the gun found at the scene was taken from his room by Nala without his knowledge.

The villa is secured with a metal cage-a chilling measure, but not against the law,” Sonny explained.

Since returning from the island, Sonny hadn’t caught a moment of rest and was parched.

Nathan passed him a cup of tea.

Gulping it down in one go, Sonny continued, “Given Danilo’s status as a Zephyrian noble, we must tread carefully to avoid international complications.

Unable to prove his wrongdoing today, we’re compelled to release him tomorrow.

”

Lucinda perused Danilo’s file.

“If that’s the case, release him.

He’s merely a pawn in Nala’s game.

As long as he commits no major offenses in Cadiered, we can’t justify holding him.

”

Her primary focus remained on Nala; the others were of Little consequence.

Nathan also examined additional records.

“Hold on for Nala’s case.

I’ll have someone revisit the incident from years ago to gather evidence for the court.

”

“Understood,” Sonny responded.

For the next couple of days, they were engrossed in compiling evidence against Nala.

This time, escaping the National Security Bureau wouldn’t be easy for her.

By the third day, they found no new information about the incident involving Lucinda’s mother from years past.

The lack of clues only deepened their suspicion that the evidence had been expertly concealed by Atticus.

Convinced by Nala’s account, Lucinda documented their confrontation at the National Security Bureau based on Nala’s confession.

Having gathered all necessary evidence, Sonny delivered it to the Ministry of Justice that afternoon.

Now, all that remained was to await the trial’s outcome patiently.

As Lucinda was about to exit the National Security Bureau, her phone buzzed with an incoming call.

It was an unregistered number, one she had previously blocked.

She immediately recognized the caller.

It was Graham.

A shadow fell over Lucinda’s expression.

She answered, and without giving Graham a chance to speak, she said, “The evidence has been submitted to the court.

Don’t bother trying to intercede on her behalf.

”
