“Charles Lucas”

“Is he from the Lucas family?”

“Since when did the Lucas family have such a powerful and influential man?”

Despite my burning questions, I didn't ask my assistant anything else. Instead, I looked at José's tombstone. His black and white photograph had just been placed. The words he had said to me yesterday, full of expectation, came to the surface in my head. “My status is very far from Lucy’s.” I cannot allow my cowardly and inferior self to stand beside her beauty.” Therefore, I will leave her temporarily and come back to find her when I have more success. I hope she's still there, at that time, she'll be waiting for me.

At that time, I had just arrived at the Lucas family home. While he was young to go, he was facing immense pressure as he had just lost a contract. However, he had made a concrete plan and worked hard with Hope to return to his side. Unfortunately, who could have imagined that fate would separate them for eternity that very night?!
