CHAPTER 18 Suspicions

  Lucie sat in her seat, feeling somewhat conflicted. After much consideration, she managed to resist acting impulsively.

  In the afternoon, Finnian called her and asked to meet up.

  But this time, Lucie simply responded, "I'm sorry, Mr. Caldwell, now is not a convenient time."

  Finnian seemed to not understand the meaning behind Lucie's words and calmly asked, "When would be a good time for you? I can wait."

  Instantly, Lucie felt the urge to sneer. When rumors about their affair were spreading like wildfire, he was nowhere to be found. Now that the rumors have been cleared up by Ruslan himself, he wants to meet her?

  "I won't be available in the future. That's it, goodbye!" She said before she was about to hang up the phone.

  But Finnian urgently said, "Wait! Don't hang up! I had no idea about this from the beginning, Lucie. Why won't you listen to my explanation?"
