Cillian was still stumbling over his words at first, but as he progressed, his thoughts became more concise. His words also flowed more smoothly. He told Lucy everything he thought of earlier. Of course, he excluded a lot of the details and just subtly hinted to help Lucy realize her worth.

Listening to Cillain's words, Lucy slowly regained her confidence. However, she soon hesitated again. "But his mother doesn't like me because his family is really, really rich and um... really powerful." Cillian raised his eyebrows and said, "How powerful could they be for you to say that?

She tactfully left out the fact that her husband was the world's number one CEO.
