Chapter 1395
“Did you order this for me?” Lucy looked at Elaine and asked, her voice thick with
disbelief.
“Nope. It wasn’t me.” Elaine gazed at her.
Lucy picked up the take-out and noticed that there was quite a lot of it. she also saw
that there was a note underneath the box. She picked it up and read the message that
was written on it.
[You need something to replenish your body since you're recovering. I don't know what
your taste is like, but this restaurant's food shouldn't be too bad.]
Elaine craned her neck forward and looked at the note in her hand. “Not bad.”
Lucy pushed her away and crumpled the note. “This is nothing. He’s just taking care of
his sick colleague. We all did that all the time.”
Hector was very polite and gentlemanly to the girls when he was working in Soul.
Therefore, she did not feel that Hector was so nice to her because she was so special.

Lucy returned to work the next day.
Maisie knew that she had taken a day off because she was sick, so when she ran into Lucy while she was waiting for
the elevator in the corridor, she asked, “ Have you recovered already? Why don’t you rest for a few more days?”
Lucy scratched her head and replied. “It’s fine. I’m feeling a lot better already.”
Maisie patted her shoulder and said, “Work isn't everything. You also need to take a break from your work from
time to time. Although you're young, you can't work too hard and put too much toll on your body. You haven't
gotten married yet, so you shouldn't put too much pressure on yourself.”
Lucy nodded.
She suddenly thought of something and said, “oh yeah, I need to... I need to thank Hector. He sent me to the
hospital yesterday.”
“Hector?” Maisie was momentarily stunned before replying with a smile, “So, you guys have met each other after
his return.”
“Yeah...” Lucy said in embarrassment, “He’s staying next to me now, and I’m kind of surprised, honestly.”
“I see...” Maisie replied, “I thought you guys have been keeping in touch the whole time.”
Lucy quickly waved her hand. “Nope, nope. I don't even know how to contact him, so we haven't been talking to
each other for a long time. It's just that I’m kind of surprised he's staying in the same building as I am after his
return.”
After they walked into the elevator, Maisie pressed the floor button and continued. “If you want to thank him, you
can just buy him a meal. After all, you're a neighbor right now, so it should be even easier.”
Lucy scratched her cheek and said, “But it’s so embarrassing...”
She felt embarrassed, but she did not know about her sister.
“There is nothing to be embarrassed about. You were colleagues three years ago, and you were the one who led
him when he was working here. Hector has become a lot more mature, and he isn’t the same person as he was in
the past,” Maisie said, she was not implying anything, she just felt like talking about Hector in front of Lucy.
Lucy seemed a little bit confused, and she was interested to know more about Hector.
“How was Hector like in the past?”
The elevator doors opened, and both of them walked out of the elevator one after
another.
Maisie stuck her hands into the pockets and replied, “ In the past, he was spoiled by his
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmgrandmother. He was arrogant and self-conceited. When he came to Soul three years
ago, I was shocked by his changes. I didn’t expect him to become so mature at all.”
The speaker had no particular intention in saying something, but the listener read her
own meaning into it. Lucy was curious about Hector’s past but was too embarrassed to
keep asking.
Two days later, Lucy came back late from work, and she bumped into Hector in the
neighborhood.
Hector got out of the car, and just when she wanted to say hi to him, another two men
emerged from his car. Both of them placed their arms on his shoulders and seemed to
be talking about something.
Both men looked totally different from Hector. They looked very dodgy, and one of
them wore a big gold chain and a fancy blouse, which gave her a bad feeling.
When they looked in her direction, Lucy hid behind a wall. Luckily, they were looking in
another direction and did not notice her.
