Lucy And Schroeder Novels & Stories

Lucy had supported her fully and not once had she thought then that she would have a personal relationship with Aaron and be guilty about her decision to play against him. Lucy worked as a secretary in Mary’s office. She had been there for so long that she considered that office her second home. “Have you heard the latest news about Mrs. Tide?” Sandra, one of the other secretaries, asked her. Usually, she wasn’t interested in gossip about the office, but it was Mrs. Tide they were talking about. She knew how fast word spread, and if you wanted your peace of mind, you had to keep your distance.

They all felt like shards of glass being pricked on my body. “I wonder what Leo saw in her. He could have someone better, someone like me. I'm fit to be the Luna, not this ugly whore.” Lucy said. Lucy had always held a grudge against me when I was still friends with Leo in our childhood and it just got worse when it was announced that he was getting married to me.

At least. And my friend Lucy? Lucy Reinhard is your average girl next door. Tall and slim, the top model size. You can barely see any other expression than a smile on her face. Full big lips cover the two rows of perfectly shiny teeth. Long wavy honey-blonde hairs fall to her waist and bangs hide her thin eyebrows, but point out the pair of two different eyes. Heterochromia and she rocks it. One is blue, one is green. Lucy and Gideon would've made the perfect couple, a match made in heaven. Only if Gideon wasn't the type that puts football before anything else, but that's another story.

Adina chuckled softly, a little sheepish, as if trying to laugh off the awkwardness. Her eyes flickered with apology. “I am sorry," Adina said sincerely. Lucy chuckled dryly. “I can understand your curiosity. Seeing as that was the reason our friendship had ended in college. You must be curious to know if we continue our love story.” Lucy’s eyes darkened with sadness. She cleared her throat. “Well, erm…we did continue our love story and got married,” Lucy said so, her tone sad. “Wow, that's…impressive.” Adina said awkwardly.

Lucy was gestured to step forward, and I wished her luck through the mind link. All eyes were on her now, and she seemed a bit more braver than I was. "My name is Lucy Kyle, and I am a programmer. I have created a program to solve the problem of organising the Empire’s finances..." A projector was brought out. It was connected to Lucy's laptop, and the entire hall could see the program. "It is an accounting software made with simple codes to help organise..." As she spoke, I stole a glance at the high table. Conrad’s stepmother and brothers looked angry and bitter as they listened to Lucy.

Lucy entered the room, a relieved smile forming on her face when she saw Adrienne awake. "Oh, thank goodness," she murmured softly, a touch of pity in her voice. Adrienne's heart sank at the expression on Lucy's face, a sinking feeling that there was more to the story. "What's wrong?" she asked cautiously. Lucy sighed heavily, her gaze fixed on the floor. "It's all over the news," she reluctantly admitted.

The next morning I wake up to shouting. Lucy and Jessica are having a screaming match. Lucy is packing her things and screaming that Jessica is a tramp. Chad is swearing nothing happened and Max is conforming his story. “Is everything okay?” I ask Lucy. Lucy stares at Chad, “Three years I stood by you!” Lucy finally looks at me, “I’m sorry, but I’m going to leave early. It was a pleasure meeting you, and I hope one day we can get together again as friends.”

"Hey, Hannah, Sophia, you girls came too! I haven't seen you two for a long time. Gosh, look at how fast the time passed." When Lucy reached the bar, she greeted Hannah and Sophia with a smile. Hannah and Sophia did not know Lucy's current situation. After graduation, Lucy got together with Easton. Ever since she was rich, she seldom contacted her classmate who was less wealthy. Thus, they did not know what happened to Lucy's life. Sophia smiled. "I remember you were very close with Severin when we were studying. How long have you guys been together? Are you two married?" Hannah also joined the conversation. "Maybe they already have a few kids. It's been many years since our graduation!"

Lincoln stepped forward. "Maybe you could exchange that gift of life with a little paperwork? Believe me, with George Berger you will be dead before you know it. Just try to stay alive for as long as possible so we get our monthly pay. We have a deal don't we!" Lucy paused... Her mouth opened to make words. But just like her heart, her world, her soul, and her spirit, her voice was broken. Her knees remained slumped to the floor. Her heart burned with an intense heat as pain, like a stab coursed through her body.

“Lucy is very competent at currying favor with people. Otherwise, how could she go from being Kennedy’s assistant to the administrative department manager in such a short time? I’ve been in Soul for a longer time compared to her.” The other female staff exchanged gazes and seemed to think that she was right. ‘Lucy is only 23 years old, and she’s been promoted from a tiny assistant to the manager of the administration department within two years of joining Sou. That’s a very fast march for someone like her. ‘However, it’s mainly because Ms. Vanderbilt likes Lucy very much, and it’s obvious to everyone that Lucy knows how to please her superiors.’ After they left the bathroom, Naomi, who came
