Faux Vows, True Desires

Ike instinctively asked, "Who is he? Isn't he Stefan? Is his name fake or something?"

Without waiting for Lucinda to continue, Ike said, "I told you before that Stefan is not someone you can control. He's a deep guy, don't be fooled by his current gentleness. Just by his aloof demeanor back in school, I knew his gentleness now is all an act. You should hurry up and divorce him. As long as our parents don't find out, mom won't keep bothering you about blind dates. You can still live your life freely."

Ike was getting really annoyed with Stefan. The guy had sneaked off with his beloved sister. How could he possibly be okay with that? His attempt to badmouth Stefan in front of their mom didn't work. Instead, Stefan explained everything himself.

"Lucinda, you and Stefan haven't consummate your marriage yet, right?"

"No."

"Good. Get a divorce, then when you meet a man you truly love, get married. By then, I promise I'll prepare a generous gift for you. I only have one sister, and I can't let your wedding be shabby."

Ike had already decided to work overtime to earn extra money and prepare a wedding gift for his sister.

"Let me explain."

Lucinda finally had a chance to speak. "Stefan's name isn't fake. He is indeed called Stefan, but he took his mother's surname. His father is from the Anderson family."

"So he took his mother's surname. I was his classmate for several years, and I had no idea."

"Stefan is also the CEO of Ascend Global and the heir to the Anderson family. He's not ordinary at all. He's the high and mighty heir to the Anderson family. I apparently hired a big shot as my husband." Oops, she just spilled the beans.

Ike on the other side processed this information and immediately growled, "Lucinda, say that again? You're saying Stefan is your hired husband? You two aren't real? Lucinda, you've got guts!"
