Faux Vows, True Desires

Chapter 88

"Lucy." Stefan caught up with Lucinda, grabbing her hand and pulling her into his arms.

"Let go of me!"

Lucinda struggled, trying to push him away, but his grip was too strong, and she couldn't break free.

"Let me go!"

"Lucy, there's really nothing between me and Ruby. I've never loved her, nor have I ever made any promises to her. Those are just rumors spread by others, they assumed that she and I were a couple."

Stefan didn't know how many times he had to explain his relationship with Ruby to Lucinda.

He truly didn't love Ruby.

Ten years ago, Ruby tried to seduce him, but he was young and strong-willed and didn't fall for her.

Ruby's failure to seduce him made her feel humiliated, so she left the country.

Out of respect for their past growing up together, he didn't make a fuss about Ruby's attempt to bed him.

"Lucy, don't be mad. From now on, I won't answer any calls from Ruby."

"Block her number."

"Okay, I'll block her."

"She called me a slut."


"She's the slut."

"I already cursed her out, so you don't have to do it for me."

Stefan stared at her, somewhat puzzled.

In love, the first to fall is often the most vulnerable.

Stefan was deeply vulnerable.

His deep affection for Lucinda made him dread her anger. When she was upset, he felt disoriented.
