Faux Vows, True Desires

Everyone was watching Stefan, curious to see how he'd react to this bold maiden's confession.

"Lucy."

The only thing in Stefan's eyes was Lucinda and the sea of flowers she had given him.

It's not every day a woman gifts a man with flowers, let alone a whole garden of them.

This was something he was supposed to do.

However, she had done this, and it had made him very happy.

Stefan briskly walked over to Lucinda.

She handed him a bouquet of flowers, her smile beaming, "Stefan, these flowers are for you."

Stefan accepted the flowers.

"Thank you, my dear wife."

Upon hearing this, everyone around them was so shocked.

When did Stefan get married?

They had no clue.

There hadn't been any media coverage of their wedding.

Those in the know breathed a sigh of relief.

Now that the boss had publically acknowledged his marriage, they no longer had to keep it hush-hush.

Stefan looked once again at the sea of flowers in front of him.

"Stefan, I like you."

These were the words Lucinda had spelled out with flowers.

He looked at the words "I like you".

He felt a bit disappointed.

She hadn't spelled out "I love you".

"I like you" was too vague. She had said she liked him before, but she would say that she likes others as well.
