Faux Vows, True Desires

Chapter 175

Two people were arguing nonstop, and Lucinda kept her trap shut.

One man was her brother, the other one was her hubby. She couldn't play favorites, so she decided to stay mum.

"It's pretty far."

"Not really. I've got a car. I can give you a ride to the hospital this afternoon."

As Stefan guided his wife, he spoke softly.

Ike was speechless.

The couple seemed to have completely ignored him.

Lucinda called out to him.

Ike caught up with them in long strides, and his old classmate gave him a glance.

Originally, he planned to take Lucinda out for a meal, but that annoying man showed up out of nowhere and threw a wrench in his plans. As they chowed down, Ike started to regret it.

He regretted having a meal with them. They were basically mentally torturing single folks.

He did have a girl he fancied, but he hadn't won her over yet. Seeing such a lovey-dovey couple made him green with envy.


After the meal, Ike bolted out of there, reminding Lucinda to spill the beans to their parents before he left.

Stefan didn't rush to take Lucinda to the hospital. Instead, he took her back to his office.

There was a lounge in his office. As soon as they stepped in, he scooped up Lucinda and headed straight for it.
