Faux Vows, True Desires

Chapter 119

Lucinda was really lucky, scoring such an excellent guy like Stefan as her husband, and they even tied the knot!

After getting to know Stefan, Lucinda realized he had been eyeing her for a while.

She figured she must have done a lot of good in her past life to end up marrying Stefan.

She felt even luckier than the leading lady in a romantic novel.

Stefan took Lucinda to a glass case, opened it, and took out two diamond rings. He picked one, took Lucinda's hand, and slipped the ring onto her finger.

"Lucy, this is our engagement gift. Now you can put a ring on me."

Lucinda was taken aback, but she put the ring on him.

"You've roped me in now, you'll have to put up with me for the rest of your life."

Lucinda replied, "I'm all in on spending my life with you, regardless of our different backgrounds. I'll do my best to fit into your world and close the gap between us."

"I was brimming with confidence, but tonight, the surprise you gave me made me realize that I can't shrink the distance between us."

His wealth was beyond Lucinda's wildest dreams.

At first, Lucinda thought he was just an ordinary worker.

Once she knew his true identity, not much changed, except that he took Lucinda back to his mansion at Diamond Ridge Estates. She thought that was just who he was. But tonight, Lucinda realized she had underestimated his wealth.

"We're husband and wife, so what's mine is yours, and what's yours is still yours. There's no gap between us. Lucy, believe in yourself, believe in me, okay?" Stefan wanted to surprise Lucinda, but not scare her off.


He said, "You saw tonight, my family is laid back. They didn't put on any airs and they even loved the local specialties you brought." "We're from the same world, Lucy. I don't want you to say we're from two different worlds. Can we drop that talk from now on?"

Lucinda looked at him, wanting to say something but not knowing what.

The special shoe and clothes room set up for Lucinda was too overwhelming for her.

She needed to chill for a bit.
