Faux Vows, True Desires

Chapter 60

Stefan said seriously, "I want you to look into this thoroughly. Don't miss any clues. Whoever is trying to harm my Lucy, I won't let them go." "I'll handle the task you've given me. But boss, you keep bringing up the love you have for Lucy, it kinda stings for a lonely bachelor like me."

Stefan glanced at Edgar and scoffed, "I'm not meddling in your love life. If you're feeling envious, you can totally find a nice girl and fall head over heels. There are plenty of beauties in the company who adore you, need me to hook you up?"

Upon hearing this, Edgar immediately waved the white flag. "Forget it, I don't want to deal with those troublesome women. Once they latch onto you, it's near impossible to shake them off."

"I feel like you're talking about me."

"If that's how you interpret it, there's not much I can do. Ms. Scott is back in the country. I think she's here for you. You better handle this situation before it causes trouble for your wife."

Stefan fell silent for a moment. "Lucy is not a damsel in distress, and I can't be protecting her every second. By marrying me, she has to face many people and situations; some things she has to deal with herself. Lucy also doesn't want me to be her constant guardian, she's an independent woman."

Edgar, aware of his boss' status, understood the hidden meaning in Stefan's words.

"Is there anything else you need, boss? If not, I'll get back to work."

Stefan poured himself a glass of water and said to Edgar, "Nope, you're not going anywhere. We have a meeting."

Oh yeah, there were two important meetings this morning. As the CEO's personal assistant, he couldn't be absent.
