Chapter 170
Clement finally understood why he couldn’t find this stone anywhere the day after that day. Plunged into
embarrassment, he thought: “If that were the case, I could no longer continue to lie to him…” At this idea,
Clément thought he had no other choice than to play the ignorant . He said: – What do you mean? It ‘s just an ordinary stone, isn’t it ?Looking Clement seriously in the eye, Lucile said: – Do not deceive me
again. Florentin had already taught me that this stone is yours, that there are words engraved on it and
that it is unique in the world. At these words, Clément cursed Florentin from the bottom of his heart *
How talkative Florentin is!» These proofs of Lucile seemed to him so solid that he was obliged to confess
with nods of his head:
– Well, I admit it. Yes, I was the one who saved you at Jilin Restaurant. But it was just by chance. Please
don’t tell Chloe about it.
A silence immediately began to reign between these two people.
Embarrassed by the fact that Lucile had easily discovered the identity he had been trying to hide from
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇteveryone for a long time, Clément didn’t know what to say.
Very agitated, Lucile, she had mixed feelings.
Staring at Clément, she hesitated to confide her love for him. And she ended up finding the courage to
take a step towards her love to stay almost glued to the latter’s body.
Then she said: – Clement, I… I love you! To hear it, Clément took a step back in an imperceptible way
before saying: – Lucile, you know, I am the husband of your best friend. How do you… Lucile retorted,
gritting her teeth:
– Yes I know. But you and Chloe don’t like each other. It was for Master Xavier that you were married,
wasn’t it? As a result, you are not her real husband, you are her “false” husband.
Suddenly, she grabbed Clément’s hand to place it on her heart. She said lovingly:
– Clement, that in terms of appearance or size, I can match Chloe. Also, I’m the eldest daughter of the
Chastain family. And I love you more, compared to her. I can do anything for you.
Clement withdrew his hand instantly and refused
– Lucile, it is impossible that we love each other. On the one hand, I never want to betray Chloe. On the
other hand, in my opinion, you are losing your mind just for the moment; and your feelings for me will
evaporate in time. So don’t think about me anymore. It’s not worth it
Lucile continued stubbornly:
– Nope. Yesterday, after returning to the hotel, I thought hard all night long. Listen, Clément, I fell in love
with you from our first meeting, namely the first time you saved me. And yesterday, when you saved me
once again, I found myself madly in love with you.
More and more excited, Lucile began to shout:
– I really love you ! You can count on me. If you also want to stay with me, I won’t allow anyone to
despise you, and I can always be at your disposal!
Clément laughed yellow on the spot thinking:
“This woman only knows that I am her saviour. What she doesn’t know is that I’m also the CEO of
Groupe Roi and the eldest son of the Huets. If I don’t want to be despised, I can directly reveal my true
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmidentity. In that case, many people would bow down to me. But I don’t like this kind of life at all. »
He refrained from saying what he thought of Lucile, for fear that the latter would become more
discouraged and discover his true identity. Fixing Clément with a firm gaze, Lucile persisted:
– You can refuse me for the moment. But I don’t plan to give up. I’m going to prove to you with concrete
actions that compared to Chloe, I love you more and I deserve you more. I want to stay with you all my
life even as your mistress
Clément replied with resignation:
– Lucile, you’re too nervous now. I advise you to think seriously about what I have told you. I’m coming
back to cook Son, I’ll leave you.
With that, Clément quickly fled on an electric bicycle.
He considered that Lucile’s fire of passion would naturally die out in a few days and that, in the
meantime, he would have to dodge it.
However, following Clement with her gaze, Lucile still seemed firm. She said to herself:
“Lucile, don’t be discouraged! Trust yourself. »
