Faux Vows, True Desires

Chapter 123

"Ike, everyone's been treating me real nice, super friendly, no rejection at all. You can chill, I'm all good," Lucinda reassured Ike, then asked, "Ike, you taking a break today? No overtime?" "You left me in the dust to follow Stefan, what else am I supposed to do but work?" Ike sounded miffed. His sister got whisked away by her old classmate.

Lucinda chuckled, "Ike, drop by whenever you're free. I've decided to move back to the manor with Stefan."

Ike retorted, "That's way out in the sticks, it's gonna be a pain for you to commute."

"I can drive to work. In fact, I'm about to take Stefan for a spin."

Hearing this, Ike immediately said, "Lucy, hand your phone to Stefan. I need to have a word with him."

Lucinda hummed in agreement and passed the phone to Stefan.

Just as Stefan put the phone to his ear, he heard Ike ask, "You had breakfast yet?"

"Yeah."

"Well, don't go barfing all over the car."

"I don't get car sick."

Ike chuckled, "Just be careful, alright?" With that, he hung up.

Stefan was left puzzled. What was Ike trying to say?

"Ike hung up? Alright, I'm driving now." Lucinda, who hadn't driven in a while, cheerfully started the car.
