Faux Vows, True Desires

Chapter 67

"Whether they actually tie the knot or not, as long as they sign the marriage agreement, I wouldn't let them split. As long as I'm around, they wouldn't dare to sneak a divorce. If Lucinda dares to pull a stunt like that, I'll line up ten blind dates for her every day."

Clearly, Fiona was hell-bent on keeping Stefan in her clutches, not letting him off the hook.

If Stefan were to hear what Lucinda's mom was saying right now, he'd definitely retort, "I wanna be your son-in-law forever, don't worry, I ain't going anywhere."

Cecilia chimed in: "Fiona, don't you think you've pushed Lucinda to the limit with the match-making that she's marrying Mr. Coleman just to escape it all? They've known each other for eleven years, they're tight. It's not like they rushed into marriage, they genuinely dig each other."

Cecilia rolled her eyes internally, eleven years of familiarity but they still felt like strangers. Lucinda was royally screwed over by Mr. Coleman. In Cecilia's eyes, she was just too naive.

"Cecilia, you're about the same age as Lucinda, right?" Suddenly Fiona shifted the conversation to Cecilia.

"Fiona, you enjoy your fruit first, there is something I need to take care of."

Cecilia quickly made an excuse to beat it. Her folks were also on her case about settling down, but not as relentless as Fiona was with Lucinda.

"Cecilia, go ahead. Next time I come across a decent bloke, I'll introduce him to you."

Fiona offered warmly.

Cecilia high-tailed it out of there even faster.

Fiona went back to munching her fruit. She didn't know any of the other people around, so she whipped out her phone and started chatting with her husband on Whatsapp.

Vincent told her: "Our daughter's married now, once you've confirmed she's not putting on a show, come back here pronto. Stop meddling with the kids' work. If you have the time, you can start nagging our son about getting married. He's turning thirty next year and doesn't even have a girlfriend."

True, their daughter was married now, but they still had a son.
