Faux Vows, True Desires

Fiona paused, then went on, "If you're really pregnant, you can choose to have an abortion. If you don't want to, have the baby. Your dad and I will help take care of it. We won't let the child affect your chances of getting married again."

"Mom."

"Lucy, don't blame me for being harsh. I'm doing this for your own good."

Lucinda sighed helplessly, "Mom, you should let me speak too."

"Alright, go on."

Fiona immediately gave her daughter a chance to speak.

"Stefan doesn't want to divorce me."

The current situation was that Lucinda honestly told her mother the reason and process.

After hearing her daughter's honesty, Fiona felt both angry and distressed, yet guilty.

She poked Lucinda's forehead, blaming, "I urged you to marry fearing that you'd be hurt deeply by George Mitchell. I know you didn't want to get married. Did I force you to marry apart from nagging you? Instead, you thought of hiring a fake boyfriend to fool me because I nagged."

"You hired someone to pretend to be your husband, fine. But you naively went to register for marriage. Do you think signing that agreement is enough? You should only believe three out of ten things men say." "Once you register for marriage, you're legally husband and wife. It's easy for you to get married, but it's hard for you to divorce."

Fiona scolded her. Suddenly, she felt something was wrong and asked doubtfully, "How could Stefan cheat you into registration? I feel like he... seems to have feelings for you, taking every chance to take you to the Civil Affairs Bureau?"

No wonder she thought so.

Although she didn't know Stefan's real identity until tonight, Stefan was her son's college classmate. She heard a lot about Stefan from her son.

Such an excellent man would definitely not lack women.

He readily agreed to Lucinda's request and coaxed Lucinda to register for marriage. Fiona always felt that Stefan had set a trap waiting for her daughter to jump in.

Lucinda blushed, bowed her head, and said softly, "Stefan said he has liked me for a long time."

Fiona was speechless.
