“Lucy, don’t deny yourself. You deserve the best,” Joycelyn said. Hopping her from downing her drink, her clear eyes full of sincerity.

Lucy’s hand paused, and she smiled gently, teasing. “You’re pretty, so I’ll listen to you this time.”

“Cheers, no matter what, as long as we love ourselves, we can overcome anything,” Joycelyn said, raising her glass to clink with hers.

“Alright, if anything happens, remember to call me. He’s a good person and can take care of things, Joycelyn said gently.

Being in a foreign country made her a bit worried.

They both knew without saying that “he” referred to Ellison.

When the plane landed, Joycelyn and Lucy got off the plane and waited by the side.
