Hilda nced away ufortably.


    I didnt have any ulterior motive.


    I was out picking mushrooms after the rain and stumbled upon her injured.


    I genuinely care about her.


    Theres no need for your gratitude.


    Id save her if it happened again.


    What Hilda said was true.


    Nathan was convinced that Hilda had genuinely wanted to save Lucinda when she took action.


    Softening his expression, Nathan spoke gently.


    Hilda, I will allow you to leave, but first, please answer a few questions truthfully.


    If you cooperate, you can go immediately.


    Hilda swallowed nervously, feeling uneasy.


    What.


    What do you want to know? My people discovered two batches of gold bars beneath the floor tiles in the inner room.
