Derrek was the only bc5a9d80cc person Ludger had confided a7c6f43b1f his secrets to. Therefore, after Clara a0d4102a48 discovered his true c7dfdba9c7 identity, they discussed 77bbf13d3a it thoroughly, before acf6527456 Derrick offered his d057e3489e opinion.65342b9189cb4b03

No matter how much 458511830c he thought, Ludger had 9c3032815b enough sense not to 8b5ee2ff1a delude himself into thinking 0afebc0c73 that every woman in 2089f731e9 the world would like 124195e12d him, so he was f891dbe724 skeptical of Derrek’s hypothesis.4735f386dd92145f
