Lucy’s eyes lit up. She skipped as she brought her luggage to pack it in Cillian’s car. She later gave him directions to their new home.
Cillian followed her directions and drove to the guest house.
When the woman in charge of the guest house saw an unfamiliar car parking out front and a familiar face coming out of it, she knew that Lucy was done packing up.
She had just been washing something. She wiped her wet hands on her apron before walking out to welcome them. She said to Lucy, “You’re officially moving in now?
After that, she saw Cillian getting out of the driver’s seat. There was a playful smile on her face as she asked, “Is this your husband?”
Lucy was taken aback. She was reminded of Matthew, who was on the other side of the world. She shook her head. “No, he isn’t. That’s just my friend. My husband is working in the country and isn’t able to make time to be here at the moment.”
The woman had a disapproving look in her eye. How could a husband not stay by his wife’s side?
It sounded like her husband was being irresponsible. The man right in front of her was much more gentlemanly.
The woman advised the young and pretty Lucy, “If the person in front of you treats you better, you should cherish him. You have only one life and need to treat yourself better.”
Lucy understood what she meant but had no idea how to react to it. Lucy was reminded of the days she spent with Matthew after she lost her memories, and a warm smile appeared on her face.
“Thank you for the advice and your concern. My husband loves me a lot. If it wasn't for something really important, he'd be here with me.”
The woman saw the sweet look on Lucy’s face and knew that she should not have given Lucy that advice.
She shook her head helplessly in the end. She was getting much too nosy as she grew older. Lucy and her husband might have a very close relationship. She should not have poked her nose into it.
