Chapter 1112

He’s Dead

The mention of those two words wiped the smile off Lucy’s face in an instant. After a pause, she responded to Colin’s question with a chilling expression, “He won’t visit me. He’s dead.”

“D-dead?” Colin was caught off guard by Lucy’s revelation, rendered momentarily speechless.

“Lucy means she considers her ex-boyfriend dead to her,” Cherise interjected, her lips tightening as she swiftly clarified for Colin with a faint smile, “You don’t need to worry. He… won’t show up to visit her.”

Colin pursed his lips and let out a sigh, feeling slightly relieved at Cherise’s words. He looked at Cherise and Lucy, then stood up abruptly. “Cherise informed me that it’s been a while since you two caught up, so I won’t intrude any longer. I’ll take my leave!” With that, he made a swift exit, paying little heed to the reactions of the two women at the table.

How unsettling… Encountering Lucy had been an unexpected twist for him, one he hadn’t anticipated. Before he met her, he never imagined that the woman would be so… frightening. The ease with which she declared her ex-boyfriend deceased was unsettling, to say the least. She can’t go around saying that her ex- boyfriend is dead. Would she do the same if we part ways in the future? The mere thought of it gave him a headache.

“This person…” Lucy remarked to Cherise as she sat down, watching Colin’s departure with a thoughtful gaze, “Despite resembling Damien, his personality couldn’t be more different from Damien’s.”
