Chapter 140 Painful Honesty

• Tonight, dinner was served on the veranda outdoors. The candlelit dinner by the sea with the wind blowing in my face and hair reminded me of the dinner I had on the stargazing tower with Edward. The romantic atmosphere wasn’t the only reason that I was reminded of that night Edward told me about the fact that he saved me all those years ago in the forest. I felt that tonight, I will come to learn of some important hidden truth that will change the course of my life once again.
• Lucien didn’t beat around the bush, thankfully so. After the maids left us alone, Lucien started talking immediately as I sat opposite him. Similar to the dinner I had with Edward that time, the food tasted like dry sand on my tongue.
• “Can you tell me what it was like living with your mother? You know, before I met you two…” Lucien asked slightly hesitantly.
