Chapter Divorcing 457
Chapter 457 Abandon
She never admitted that Lucy was her sister.
With Charles dead, it was even harder for Chloe to admit it.
Looking at Chloe's expression, Amanda knew that she guessed right.
Amanda looked at Lucy more, observing.
At another table, Lucy sat opposite Owen, looking a little restrained.
She looked at Owen and saw him cutting the steak for her gently and carefully, without much emotion in his eyes.
Lucy said, "Owen, I asked you to come out today because I have something to tell you."
Owen had a gentle expression. He and Lucy had hardly seen each other during this period.
She said that it was because Wendy passed away and Madeline had been sad about this for a while, so she had been staying by Madeline's side to comfort Madeline.
Today was the first time in such a long time that she took the initiative to ask him out, so of course he was happy.
"What's wrong, Lucy?"
Lucy was helpless.
What she couldn't stand the most was Owen calling her in such a gentle and somewhat nostalgic tone.
It wasn't as pleasant as Michael's scream.
Lucy said, "Owen, thank you. I am very grateful to you, and I don't know how to repay you. Don't worry. I will pay you back the money for the house, as long as you give me a little more time." Owen wondered why she suddenly said this and quickly said, "Lucy, you are welcome. I am your boyfriend, and I should take care of you."
When talking about being her boyfriend, Owen showed a happy smile.
The person he had loved for so long was finally dating him.
Lucy was a little embarrassed. "Owen, I think... It's better for us to be friends."
Hearing these, Owen froze. Even his hand that was cutting the steak stopped.
He took several seconds to react, then he smiled nervously. "Lucy, are you kidding me? Today is not April Fool's Day."
Lucy put down the knife and fork in her hand somewhat embarrassedly.
She said, "Owen, I'm serious. We are not suitable to be lovers, so it's better for us to separate."
Lucy had always acted calm. Even when she broke up with him now, she acted exactly the same as when she first said she was interested in him.
Owen immediately put down his knife and fork. "Lucy, is this because I did something wrong? Tell me. I will change!"
Lucy shook her head. "No, you are good in every way. But we are not a match."
She didn't know what excuse she could use to make Owen agree to break up with her.
She already knew about Michael and Chloe's divorce.
There was no woman around Michael now. Lucy wanted to seize this opportunity to be with him.
She wished she could break up with Owen right now and throw herself into Michael's arms. "Lucy, but you said..."
Owen didn't understand. She had said that she liked him and wanted to be with him.
He didn't understand why Lucy broke up with him suddenly.
Lucy didn't intend to explain and stood up directly. "Owen, I am very grateful for everything you have done for me before. I am leaving."
After saying that, she carried her lady wallet and left the restaurant without hesitation.
Owen was left there.
He didn't know what he had done wrong. He didn't even have a chance to save his love.
Amanda and Chloe had been looking over there the whole time. And only when Lucy left did they look away.
Chloe said that Lucy didn't like Owen.
Lucy was with him for some purpose.
During the meal, Chloe received a call from the salesperson of Mortland.
Only then did she remember that she had forgotten to go and see the house.
