Lucy quickly noticed Carolline's gaze, and she could tell at a glance what was going on between the two. She wasn't sure if they liked each other, but Carolline's look had given it away.
It turned out that the man was Carolline's secret crush from elementary school. Thinking of Matilda's despicable behavior, Lucy decided on the spot to help Carolline win over this man.
At the time, she boldly declared that she would "steal" Bryan Hawkins from Matilda. Of course, the man she was interested in wasn't someone like him, but she just couldn't stand Matilda's character.
"Mr. Hawkins, it's been a long time since Carolline and I have seen each other. We want to catch up, so can we stay? Pretty please?" Lucy brazenly asked.
She's not the kind of person who can't read the situation, but since she made up her mind to help Carolline, she was determined to stay.
