Chapter 257 She’s Quite Pretty
Lucy’s figure froze.
But she didn’t stay. She entered the room.
Cherise was stupefied.
“Eat with her. I’m going to answer a call.”
Damien patted her shoulder and turned to leave.
The private room door shut once more.
Outside the room, Lennon glanced at Damien. “Did you know that I snuck back two weeks ago?”
Damien nodded.
Damien only needed a day for his business trip to the neighboring town.
He was away for longer because he went to persuade Old Mr. Belcourt.
After all, Lennon and the Belcourt family weren’t on good terms. Suppose Old Mr. Belcourt came forward and revealed that Lennon privately interacted with him every year. It was no different from him announcing that he was breaking off relations with the Belcourt family.
Therefore, Damien thought he would need a long time to persuade Old Mr. Belcourt.
But surprisingly, the old man was willing to stand on Lennon’s side unswervingly.
“It makes sense.”
Lennon let out a chuckle. “I can’t hide anything from you.”
“Also.”
Damien turned to look toward the private room.
He saw Cherise close to Lucy and speaking into her ear through the transparent door.
The two girls were joking around softly as they ate.
“Do you remember that girl from anywhere?”
Lennon raised his brows. “Lucy?”
“No.”
He took out a cigarette from his pocket and was just about to light it when her words rang in his
1/3
mind.
Therefore, he kept the cigarette back in its box. “She’s quite pretty.”
Lucy said she was in a bad mood and wanted Cherise to drink with her.
