Seeing my expression, Lucy sneered, "Take it. I know you need it, and it's better than being a tutor or selling wine for you." She paused and then added, "Besides, it's what you deserve. But if you can find a good man who can keep you, it would also be a good choice."
I stared at her in disbelief, feeling a little angry, and then said with a sullen face, "You know it. I just need money, but I'm not that kind of person."
She laughed and said, "I was just joking with you. Why are you taking it so seriously?"
After saying that, she pulled out the key, opened the door, and got out of the car.
Looking at her face, which looked exactly like mine, I felt a surge of frustration.
"Yeah, she was just joking with me. Why should I take it so seriously?" I thought to myself.
In the past, whether selling drinks in a bar or working as a tutor, no matter how difficult the customer or children's parents were, I would never show such an expression.
It seemed that after being with Otto for over a year or so, I was spoiled by him so much that I couldn't control my temper.
Today, the woman looking exactly like me just said some harsh words, but I couldn't actually bear it. I really didn't like myself like this.
Indeed, Lucy looked exactly like me, and our height and body shape were almost the same.
Two years ago, I met her in a bar where I was selling drinks.
At that time, when I pushed open Lucy's private box, everyone here was stunned and staring at me.
One of Lucy's friends was the first to react and shouted, "Damn it, Lucy! If you weren't right next to me, I would have thought that the girl selling wine was you!"
Even Lucy and I were surprised that there was someone in this world who looked exactly like us.
However, I was sure that we were not twins.
It was because my parents both died when I was fifteen.
We just looked alike.
Lucy and I were from completely different worlds. She was a rich girl, while I was just a humble worker.
She could go to high-end bars and spend more money in one night than I earned in a month.
By comparison, I went to bars just to earn money for my brother's medical expenses.
Our life was a world apart.
But even so, we ended up getting entangled again because of Otto.
After that meeting, Lucy came to the bar a few more times, but later, she didn't show up again for more than half a year.
As for me, I went to work in other bars for various reasons. In my opinion, I would never meet her again.
Unexpectedly, half a year later, Lucy appeared again.
She came to see me specifically this time.
It was because she wanted me to marry Otto on her behalf.
When she asked me for that, I even thought I had misheard.
I had read quite a few novels with the same scenario, but I never expected that it would happen in real life.
Because it was too absurd, I refused without even thinking about it. Meanwhile, I realized that novels often desired to reproduce life.
Lucy stuffed a phone number into my pocket, asking me to think about it carefully and call her as soon as I made up my mind.
In fact, I felt back then that I would never consider such a thing.
