Faux Vows, True Desires

Chapter 59

Owen was ready to hurl.

Cecilia was the type who exuded an air of freshness and refinement, quite soothing to the eyes. But he had seen all types of beauties, and he wasn't particularly interested in the type that Cecilia represented. Especially when the one in his heart was Ruby. Cecilia didn't even qualify to hold Ruby's pedestal.

The Martinez family's bodyguards, following the tracker, found him quickly. They rushed over and upon seeing his disheveled state, nearly popped their eyeballs out of shock.

"Mr. Owen, are you alright?"

Owen, massaging his throbbing temples, shot Cecilia another glare before turning to leave. The bodyguards quickly followed suit. After a few steps, he stopped and turned to Cecilia, "Cecilia, I'll get back at you for today."

He particularly emphasized "get back at you".

Cecilia, pretending to be calm, retorted, "One must bear the consequences of their actions. If you have the guts, go ahead and come at me."

"Don't worry, I've got the guts!"

When Owen was confronting Stefan, he was ruthless. That was because he was extremely jealous of him. In reality, he wasn't a bad person. If Cecilia treated him like this, he would settle the score with her but wouldn't vent his anger on the other members of the Yates family.

The bodyguards' car was parked outside the alley. After getting in, Owen instructed them to take him to the Pinehurst Hotel. He wanted to take a hot shower.

The bodyguards, clueless about what happened to Owen throughout the night and why he was soaked, dared not ask.

Owen pulled out his phone and dialed his assistant. After connecting, he said, "Walter, look up a girl named Cecilia for me. She's about 23 or 24. Her name sounds familiar, but I can't place her."
