Spoiled by the President novel Chapter 671

She did not imagine that their relationship would be such.

Spencer did not sit with them. Perhaps, he felt that it was inappropriate for a man like him to sit with the two ladies, or that there were no common topics of conversation between them.

Regardless, when they sat down, he ordered a cold drink and sat by himself.

At first, Lucy thought that it was weird, but seeing that Emilia did not seem to care, she did not probe.

Lucy looked at Emilia with slightly concerned brows. “Does Aunt Foster know that you are back this time around?”

Emilia was surprised as if she did not expect Lucy to ask that question. Perhaps, she had not considered the question, but after a pause, she replied, “I don’t think so.”

If her sister knew, she would resent her.

She had promised her sister to stay away from this city and from that person, never to come back again. However, she broke her promise and failed to keep her word. Twenty years later, she was back here again.

‘Sister, if you found out that I’m here, will you hate me?’ As she thought about that, a troubled expression appeared on Emilia’s face.

Lucy did not know what to say for some time. She had an inkling that the relationship between Emilia and Natalie was not as simple as being unrelated sisters.

After all, if there were only sisters, why did Xavier secretly keep her photo in a book?

Wasn’t that strange?

Based on a woman’s intuition, Lucy had a vague suspicion in her heart, but she dared not believe that it was true.

In terms of conscience, it was true that Natalie opposed Lucy’s relationship with Joel, causing a lot of trouble for the two of them, and also hurting Lucy’s self-esteem countless times before.

Nevertheless, Lucy did not hate Natalie because although that woman appeared to be quite mean, she was not entirely evil.

If she was truly cruel, she could have used a hundred different methods to stop Lucy and Joel from getting together.

However, Natalie did not do that. Perhaps, besides the compassion in her heart, she also considered the mother-son bond with Joel, hence she did not want to exacerbate the situation to the point of no return.

With that thought in mind, Lucy raised her head to look at Emilia with an assessing gaze. “I believe that Aunt Foster will be very happy to know that you’re back.”

Emilia was slightly startled. Her face paled, followed by a panicked reaction. Wrinkling her forehead, her tone towards Lucy was almost pleading as she said, “Miss Katz, I need a favor from you, please?”

She even used honorifics, which showed the urgency in her heart.

Lucy did not agree immediately. She asked, “What’s the matter?”

“Please don’t mention the fact that you’ve seen me in the capital, and that I’ve come back to my sister.”

Astonished, Lucy frowned reflexively.

“Why?” she asked before she could stop herself.
