She needed to try and get Mrs. Mitchell's contact info and fill her in on the situation to avoid any gossip that could lead to misunderstandings.

As a woman, Lucinda didn't want to see Mrs. Mitchell get hurt by George.

Then, Cecilia showed up, spotting Lucinda, broom in hand, standing at the shop entrance. Parking her car, she asked anxiously, "Lucy, what's going on? Someone causing trouble?" "George is such a jerk."

Lucinda was still pissed at George's actions.

Cecilia said, "How does that jerk have the nerve to keep coming after you?"

Now that Lucinda's marriage to Mr. Coleman had gone public, and everyone in Pinehurst knew they were hitched. Did George think Mr. Coleman won't come after him?

They headed back inside the shop.

Lucinda grabbed a bottle of water from the fridge and took a sip.

"George is a real piece of work. He actually suggested I divorce Stefan, take half his money, then start again with him. Does he think he's God's gift or something? He even said he'd divorce once he had more savings."

After hearing this, Cecilia cussed out George and sniggered, "Serves George's wife right. Does she really think George loves her? He's only after her money, he'd ditch her in a heartbeat if there's no profit in it.

Lucinda stayed quiet for a moment, then said, "I've met Mrs. Mitchell. She's a sensible woman, probably got fooled by George's smooth talk."

"I'm going to spill the beans about what George said to Mrs. Mitchell. As a woman, I hope she's prepared and won't let George's scheme succeed."

Cecilia chimed in, "Absolutely, we can't let George win."

"Has the renovation crew shown up yet?"
