Anyone would be startled if they saw their doppelganger. Not to mention, Lucy had been encountering a lot of strange people recently, so it was natural for her to turn and walk away. Thankfully, Theodore realized what was happening, so he quickly caught up to her and grabbed her wrist. "Miss, wait a minute." Lucy's eyes twitched, and a bad feeling crept up to her.
Apart from the strange man with white hair, no other person had initiated a conversation with her out of the blue.
Lucy was in despair. Could this be weirdo no. 2? Lucy forcefully freed her wrist from Theodore's grasp. "Sir, what do you want from me?" She rubbed her wrist and forced a smile.

However, I do have a very important matter to discuss with you that I cannot say in detail here.
