| had thought that the phone number looked familiar at the time. After thinking about it now, I realized that it
seemed to be Cindy's number.
She had been using the sphone number for many years. How interesting.
Had Cindy arrived?
When going downstairs, Theo's phone rang.
He did not answer it. When the call automatically hung up, it quickly rang again.
| did not say anything. When we cto the entrance corridor, Theo said with a smile, "Eat more for lunch. I'll
cback for dinner tonight."
| nodded. "Okay, drive safe."
Not long after Theo left, | received a call from Elena.

On the phone, she went straight to the point. "Shall we meet?"
| was a little stunned. "You have things to talk about?"
"Yes. *
| looked at the tand blandly said, "You have two hours."
"Sure." She was quick to respond, saying," I'll be waiting for you at Water Sky Cafe."
After hanging up the phone, | gently sighed.
The only reason she wanted to seewas t o tellabout Theo. | did not want to meet her, but if I did not
agree, then she might
causesother trouble.
After a quick tidying up, | left the door.
Shannon went to the supermarket and would only leave at noon. When | was done meeting Elena, it should be
about tfor u s to meet up.
When | arrived at Water Sky Cafe, | saw Elena seated in a window seat at a glance.
There was no stir on her expression when she saw me.
She was holding a coffee cup in one hand and supporting the base of the cup with another. She sipped her coffee
elegantly.
"Why did you ask to meet, Ms. Mandez?" | sat down and went straight to the point.
Elena looked at my attire. "You're still as plain as ever." 'l didn't cout here to meet Theo." |
smiled slightly. "Why are you so well-dressed, then, Ms. Mandez? Do you perhaps like me?"
Elena's expression grew stern. "I'm in no mood for jokes, Ms. Lane."
| sneered. "You should just get straight to the point.”
Elena adjusted her mood and put down the coffee cup, saying indifferently, "Men never forget their first love.”
"You look a lot like each other. It's no wonder he cares so much about you. He doesn't care aboutnot
because I'm not outstanding or attractive enough but because I look nothing like her."

| knew what she meant by that. She knew about Cindy and had mistaken her for Theo's first love.
| was amused but did not reply to her. | beckoned to the waiter.
After ordering a cup of coffee, | looked at Elena and said with a smile, "Proceed."
Seeing how calm | was, she started feeling restless instead. "You should know who I'm referring to, right?"
I nodded. "I know."
"Why do you still look so unaffected, then?"
| faintly smiled. "Maybe because I'm mentally strong.”
"You!" Elena was puzzled. "You're such a strange woman."
When the waiter served the coffee, | added a few cubes of sugar to it because | did not like it to be too bitter.
After taking a sip and finding the taste acceptable, | started drinking with satisfaction.
"I've always wondered why a woman with n o status and background like you could be with Theo for so many
years. When | later saw the long-lost daughter of the Louise family, | finally understood. You're just her «
substitute."
