Chapter 1378 

Lucy ignored Elaine.

When she was done cooking dinner, Elaine seized the moment and quickly ran next door and knocked on the door.

It took a long time before Hector finally opened the door.

He seemed to have just come out of the shower a s he smelled of very fresh soap.He had casually put on a loose lounge T-shirt and pants before coming out to answer the door.

"Sorry to keep you waiting."

"It's fine.Do you live alone?"

Elaine peeked into the house upon saying that.

Sure enough, it looked like he lived alone! The living room was spacious and clean.

There were no women's shoes on the shoe rack.

"Uh..."

Hector hesitated.

"About dinner, I think—"

Elaine didn't give him a chance to refuse and quickly dragged him out.

"I asked my sister to make an extra portion for dinner tonight.It will be a waste if you don't come to join us."

Thus, Hector was forcefully brought next door.

When Lucy heard the commotion outside the door, she looked up and met Hector's gaze.She almost lost her grip on her fork.

Elaine did not notice Lucy's shock.

She smiled and introduced her sister to Hector.
