Faux Vows, True Desires

Chapter 128

After leaving Pinehurst Hotel, Cecilia immediately called her friend.

When Lucinda picked up, Cecilia vented out her frustrations.

After hearing Cecilia's rant, Lucinda asked in surprise, "Are you telling me Owen's grandpa and your grandpa became friends and they set you and Owen up?"

What's going on?

"Lucy, you're shocked too, right? I never imagined I'd be set up with that annoying Owen. He even thought I was sucking up to his grandpa so that he'd force Owen into a date with me, how ridiculous!"

"I'd rather stay single than marry him, a man who's heart is with another woman, only a fool would marry him."

Despite being surprised, Lucinda still asked out of curiosity, "So, how did it go when you two met?"

"There's nothing much to say, I purposely wore ugly makeup and he intentionally made weird faces. I was afraid he might start liking me, and he was afraid I might start liking him, so in the end, both of us didn't develop any feelings."

Lucinda burst into laughter.

Cecilia said, "Lucy, are you gloating over my misfortune?"

"No, I just find the thing between you and Owen amusing."

"I don't want anything to do with him. Lucy, where are you right now? Wanna hang out? Let's grab a drink together."

Feeling bummed about the Owen situation, Cecilia wanted some company to drink and vent.

"I'm at Ascend Estate, Stefan's place. I'm hanging out with him right now, so I might not be able to join you."


Cecilia retorted, "You've got a husband now and care less about your friend."
