The next morning, Chloe went to the studio very early. Clément came to shop at the market on an electric bike.
Since the work in the studio would be too strenuous for his wife, he purposely bought foods of high nutritional value suitable for strengthening the human body.
Once the purchases were finished, on leaving the market, he was astonished to see Lucile approach him.
Will i
– Clement! greeted Lucile cheerfully. Clément replied, looking at her with surprise: – It’s you, Lucile. What a coincidence ! You also shop here! Eyes on Clement, Lucile stammered:
– Yes… No… Me, I…
Having trouble understanding her, Clément interrupted her: – Take your time, Lucile. Did something happen to you ? Lucile blushed all of a sudden: she was ashamed. Indeed, arrival t r this morning outside Chloé’s house, she had followed Clément to the market.
And then, armed with courage, the girl said, biting her lips lightly: — Actually, I come deliberately in order to express my gratitude to you. Thank you so much for saving me yesterday.
This response dumbfounded Clément. Then he explained with a forced smile – Please. And if I saved you, it’s because you’re a close friend of my wife. With that, Lucile shook her head and courageously
continued – Clement… in fact, I know that the person who saved me the other day in the Jilin Restaurant is also you.
Clément was flabbergasted, thinking:
“How does she know that?” She shouldn’t have known, since I masked the face then. Then he hastily denied:
– I’m sure you’re wrong. I have never been to this Restaurant Jilin. Of course, someone else saved you that time.
Very frustrated, Lucile stared at him with a tenderness mixed with a certain resentment.
She wondered:

“Why does he have no intention of acknowledging the truth?” Am I too insignificant for him to want to acknowledge having saved me? »
At this idea, she began to sob:
– That day, Hugo invited me to dinner at the Restaurant Jilin. I was harassed by a young debauchee from a wealthy family. Hugo exasperated him. And then we were stuck at the entrance to the restaurant. When we were going to beat us, Hugo abandoned me and ran away. Suddenly, a man appeared with a mask on his face, you are my hero. You knocked down everyone else to save me. Besides, you took away my…
With that, Lucile’s face flushed. Yes, that day, Clément had taken off his pants and thus touched his body.
Of course, she clearly knew that it was in order to save her that Clement had done that, and that he hadn’t harbored any dark intention against her by doing that.
At Lucile’s words, Clément turned green with fear, thinking:
“Oh dear, she dares to talk about anything! How can I admit I did that?! Impossible ! If Chloe finds out about this, she’ll get mad at me and hate me forever. »
– Lucile, you were wrong. Although I know how to do martial arts, I’m not the one who saved you, Clement insisted before resuming quickly, I “saved” you, if you like, just once, that was yesterday.
Lucile felt sad when she saw Clement still denying it. She sighed and took a stone out of her pocket.
– And look at this stone, how can you explain? Out of astonishment, Clément widened his eyes, saying to himself:
“Is this the stone that I lost long ago and couldn’t find anywhere? Why is she being held by Lucile? Was it when I was rescuing her at the Jilin Restaurant that she found it ? »
