Chapter 1403
The man paused. “It means I‘m your father.”
Hector sent the man home on the way back, and by the time he was back at his apartment, it was around 11:00 p.m.
He was covered in the scent of that woman, which repulsed him and made him shower twice.
He returned to his bedroom, turned off the lights, and lay down. The neon lights outside his window shone in through his thin curtains and reflected on his ceiling.
Hector lay on his hand, stared at the ceiling, and chuckled upon recalling something.

When Lucy got out her door and saw the doors of the elevator closing, she rushed over. “Hold the doors!”
She saw Hector when she squeezed through the doors and paused as she recalled what happened the other day. It was awkward to either ignore or speak to him.
She squeezed a smile and stood next to him. “What a coincidence.”
He looked at her. “It is.”
Lucy snuck a peek at him. He was wearing a white shirt, which looked simple yet casual, giving him a fresh look.

Hector saw that her head was leaning really close and chuckled, “What‘s going on?”
She paused and looked up into his eyes.
Her nose almost touched his shoulder, and she was caught in the act. She took a deep breath and straightened her back. “Your detergent smells nice. What brand is it?”
Hector smiled. “It‘s not my detergent. It‘s my scented diffuser.” He paused for a few seconds. “If you like it, I can give you a bottle of it.”
