139 Talented Actress

Tom watched Lucy in amusement as she told him about her fiance's 'accident' which had resulted in her resuming at the office late. 

"....We were so glad that he only fractured his scapula and femur," Lucy concluded, and Tom nodded his head in agreement. Not in agreement with what she was saying, but in agreement with what Harry had said. 

Harry had been right when he said Lucy was a natural born actress. If he didn't know better, he would most definitely have fallen for all the lies she had just told him. He needed to inform Bryan that Lucy had the potential of becoming an award-winning actress. 

"And he chose to call off your engagement simply because you were not there at the hospital to look after him?" Tom asked, wanting her to continue with the entertaining story.
