Faux Vows, True Desires

This was his first time arguing with a girl, and he found it quite amusing.

Owen stubbornly denied that it was Cecilia's boldness to argue with him that intrigued him, which is why he tolerated her audaciousness.

"I've been in love with a woman for over a decade, so you don't need to worry. Even if you want to marry me, I will refuse."

"Is the woman you love still hung up on Mr. Coleman? He's Lucinda's man. They're already married, and they've done the paperwork. Even if it's not public, it doesn't change the fact that they're legally husband and wife. You should tell your girl to give up."

Owen asked gloomily, "Where did you hear that?"

"I saw you taking people to confront Lucinda the other day, I heard it all."

Owen finally got it. No wonder this woman knew so much.

"It's none of your business."

"Interesting, as if I am dying to meddle in your affairs. What on earth do I have to do with you? Why should I care about your matters?"

Owen was left speechless.

He must be sick, fever messing with his head, that's why he was left speechless by this woman.

He stopped talking, and so did Cecilia.

After a while, Owen suddenly said, "Ruby will be here later. Could you play along with me? If you do, I'll let you go. You don't have to be my maid anymore, and I won't bother you in the future."

Cecilia was about to mop the floor, but when she heard this, she stopped and looked at him, asking, "You want me to pretend to be your lover to make Ruby pissed off and leave, or do you want Ruby to be irritated and jealous?"

Owen kept silent, which was pretty much a confirmation.

He was thinking, "Is she a mind reader?"

"I'd rather continue to be your maid."

Cecilia started mopping the floor again.

Owen was stunned. He didn't expect Cecilia to refuse.
