Cold Feet: Secrets Before the Wedding
Chapter 10
"Can't say."
Lucas leaned back in his seat, a roguish smile on his lips: "She's married, it wouldn't be good for her if I said her name."
Ethan was silent for a moment.
When he spoke again, he still sounded half skeptical:
"Seriously, are you just messing with me, or is this for real?"
"I've known you for so long, how come I never heard a peep about this?"
"You kept your secrets just as well." Lucas laughed coldly: "Besides, is it something to be proud of?"
"That's true." Ethan sounded a bit sheepish.
"I'm hanging up, we'll catch up another time."
"Alright, don't let me interrupt your romantic night."
After hanging up, he started the car and asked me: "What do you want to eat?"
I looked out at the night through the car window, my mind still in a jumble.
I had overheard most of their conversation just now.
But I didn't really believe it.
Lucas came from a good family and had a proud personality.
He was uniquely arrogant and unrestrained in the city.
His grandfather had beaten him with a cane more than a few times.
If he really liked someone, he wouldn't just watch her get married.
I couldn't figure out why he would make up such a lie.
But, it had nothing to do with me anyway.
Between us, this was probably our only brief encounter.
"Let's go to the area near C University. There's a food street there I loved when I was in school."
"Alright."
As he stepped on the gas, Lucas glanced at me again: "Fasten your seatbelt."
I hurriedly looked down to check.
My loose hair fell forward, swaying gently and landing on his arm.
I reached up to brush my hair back.
But suddenly I noticed a white camellia hair tie in the center console storage.
It looked very familiar.
Because I had a pair of hair ties just like that.
I had lost one of them later.
But these hair ties weren't anything special.
They had been trendy online for a while last year.
So it was probably just left behind by one of Lucas' female companions.
I slowly straightened up, calmly looking ahead.
But I couldn't help raising my hand to brush my slightly swollen lips with the back of my hand.
But his kissing earlier had been so clumsy.
I don't know why such strange thoughts popped into my head.
I couldn't help but shake my head in self-mockery.
What did it have to do with me anyway?
Tonight was just an indulgent dream I had.
"Olivia."
"Hm?"
"Don't you have any questions you want to ask me?"
