It was nearly noon when Daphne, after much hesitation, knocked on Lucia’s office door.

Lucia was already waiting for her, so she was invited to sit on the sofa with her, with nothing but a warm smile on her face.

Daphne stared at Lucia suspiciously for a long time, as if she wanted to see something in her face. Lucia smiled and asked,

“Don’t you recognize me?”

“I don’t know…” Daphne murmured what was on her mind, then nervously explained when she sensed a slip of the tongue,

“Lucia, I didn’t mean…”

“I understand,” said Lucia with a slight smile.

Eduard wanted her to have a talk with Lucia, who might have been tempted to tell the truth, but Daphne really didn’t know how to hide her emotions, or how to get information out of her.

Daphne said nothing, but her mind was showed on her face, and Lucia looked at her with a bitter smile.

She had expected Arthur to send Daphne to talk to her. He knew her too well, and knew that she was open to Daphne who was simple, but… he was wrong this time. She had to be ruthless.
