    Chapter 204


    After all. Lucas had first met the girl in this small town.


    After asking Serenity a series of questions, lucas thought about it again. It seemed like he was


    overthinking it.


    “You’re not her,” Lucas stated indifferently. Serenity was not the one he was looking for.


    ‘Not who? Confusion shed in Serenity’s eyes,


    When the restaurant owner came over and served the food, Lucas spoke. “Okay, let’s eat. Do you want


    some wine?”


    Serenity thought of her previous experience of getting drunk in Jackson’s presence and shook her


    head. “No, I’ll just have a bottled drink.”


    Lucas then asked the owner to bring over two battled drinks.


    “Are you not drinking?” Serenity raised her eyebrows.


    “I won’t drink I have to driveter,” Lucas said.


    Serenity’s expression darkened, thinking of the car ident years ago. She had been charged with


    drunk driving despite not drinking at all!


    “By the way, you were in


    In a car ident because of drunk driving, weren’t you?” Luca s’s voice rang out abruptly, you’re


    working as a sanitation worker now?”


    “At least I have a job,” Serenity said self-deprecatingly


    “Shall I speak to someone at the Sanitation Office? I could get you transferred over to an easier job.”


    “No, thanks,” Serenity refused. A favor from the famous Mr. Gomez would only make things harder.


    “Is that why


    Lucas furrowed his brow slightly. It was his first time getting rejected for his kindness. He wanted to


    give her a favor because she looked like the girl in his memory. Otherwise, he would not have offered


    his help.


    Serenity kept her head down and ate. Even with her head down, she could feel luis probing gaze on


    her asionally.


    Atst, the ined was over. Lucas offered, “Let me take you home.”


    “No, thanks I’ll take the bus myself,” Serenity said,


    “Look at the time. Even if you rush to the bus station, can you get a bus back to Sria?”


    Serenity nced at the time. It was already half past eight at night. She could take a taxi to the bus


    station, but it would be toote to catch thest bus. She would have to wait until the next morning to


    take a train back


    “I’ll send you home,” Lucas said in an indifferent tone. “If you don’t want to, you can figure it out


    yourself”


    Serenity bit her lips slightly. Even if she tried to figure out a way home, she could not.


    “Well… Thanks.” Finally, Serenity epted Lucas ‘s offer awkwardly and got into his car again. She sat


    in the passenger seat and looked out the window. While watching the night scenery outside, the song


    ‘Walk of Life’ by Teresa was yed in the car.


    Serenity was once again surprised. She did not think that Lucas would like such an old song. Not only


    that, the song was on a loop, so the same song just kept ying in the car.


    Serenity was reminded of how much she used to love this song She could sing it too.


    The song was in a foreignnguage. When she was young, she had to pronounce every wordt it


    urately to sing the song


    well.


    Thinking about it again, Serenity really enjoyed her time living with her grandmother back then. It was


    probably the happiest time in her memory.


    Soon, Serenity’s eyelids started feeling heavy due to this music. She was sleepy.Ccontent ? exclusive by N?/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
