Chapter 254 Perhaps I’m Mistaken
When the voice vanished entirely, the crowd watching the scene from the hall also dispersed.
Lennon hung over the railing and looked keenly at the well-matched couple and their third wheel on the couch downstairs. “Food is being served. Are you three hungry yet?”
“Yes!”
Cherise placed Damien’s coat down. She immediately stood up and pulled Lucy with her. “Let’s cat!”
“Mm.”
Lucy rose, and the two girls headed upstairs while holding hands.
Lennon was still leaning against the railing.
When the two girls walked past Lennon, Lucy thought of something and stopped.
She let go of Cherise’s hand and turned to look at Lennon. “You said you were severely ill over a decade ago?”
Lennon never expected Lucy to ask him such a question suddenly.
He glanced at her with a frown. “Yes.”
Lucy looked at him, and her voice unexpectedly started to tremble. “Can I ask which year you
were sick?”
Lennon was slightly impatient when his past was brought up. He didn’t want to talk about it. “Twelve years ago.”
He was sixteen that year, but the doctor had announced his death sentence.
All his relatives had abandoned him overnight..
He used to be the glorious son of the Belcourt family. However, he transformed into an adopted son abandoned by the Belcourt family.
Lennon would have long stopped breathing if Damien hadn’t appeared and given him a new kidney.
Twelve years ago…
Lucy was slightly agitated. “You had an operation twelve years ago, right?”
The man before her and the young teen in her memories who never smiled matched. up. Lucy’s heart started beating furiously. “Where was your operation? Do you remember?”
“What operation was it?”
Lennon furrowed his brows, and malice appeared in his eyes. “I don’t think I need to tell you all
these.”
Lucy’s figure stiffened.
The corners of her lips froze, and she couldn’t say anything.
Upon seeing her like that, Cherise immediately came and dragged her away. “What are you doing, Lucy?”
Cherise looked back at Lennon and lowered her voice. “He must not want to think about his bad memories. Why do you keep questioning him?”
Lucy was taken aback and pursed her lips tightly. “I.. may have known him in the past.”
Cherise’s eyes widened, and she asked softly, “You know him?”
Hasn’t Lennon been overseas for over a decade? Didn’t he just return?
How can Lucy know him?
She nudged Lucy’s shoulder curiously. “When did you meet him?”
Lucy pursed her lips and looked over Cherise’s shoulder at the man heading upstairs with Damien.
The unfamiliar arrogance on his features made Lucy’s heart tighten slightly.
After a long time, she sighed. “Perhaps I’m mistaken.”
Cherise furrowed her brows and wanted to say something, but Lennon and Damien entered the private room.
The girl flattened her lips and stopped asking. She moved obediently to Damien’s side and sat
down.
Lennon naturally sat across them.
Lucy hesitated momentarily but could only sit by Lennon’s side.
The food on the table was sumptuous. Every dish was prepared meticulously by New World Restaurant’s chefs. They looked and smelled delicious.
This was Cherise’s first time seeing such delectable food.
Every dish looked exquisite!
The girl’s restrained hands lay under the table.
