Faux Vows, True Desires

Chapter 185

Stefan didn't realize he was crashing a phone call between his wife and her mother.

He strode in, heading straight for Lucinda.

He handed Lucinda a bunch of flowers, speaking softly, "Darling, I'm here to pick you up."

Receiving the flowers, Lucinda replied, "You're giving me flowers again. It's so late, by tomorrow, they won't be fresh, they'll wither quickly."

"Well, from tomorrow I'll give you practical flowers that won't wither."

Lucinda was curious, "What kind of flowers are both practical and won't wither?"

Cecilia joked with a laugh, "It's not going to be fake flowers, is it?"

Stefan answered mysteriously, "You'll know tomorrow."

With Stefan's arrival, Lucinda didn't stick around for long.

She held the bouquet in one hand and lifted her laptop bag with the other, ready to finish her updates early in the morning so she could spend the day with her parents.

A large hand reached out and took her laptop bag.

She knew without looking it's her husband, he's always so thoughtful.

They'd known each other for eleven years, she's never been particularly fond of him, but after a month of marriage, she fell for him.

Facing such an outstanding man, so considerate towards you, gentle only to you, always keeping you in his heart, spoiling you rotten, Lucinda felt her resistance was too weak, she couldn't resist Stefan's love. So, she chose to surrender.


"Cecilia, why don't we go together, we'll take you home first." Lucinda suggested.

Cecilia politely declined her friend's kindness, she laughed and said, "No need, I'm about to close up, and my house isn't far, I'll be home quickly on my e-bike."

"Well, be careful then."

"Sure will."

The couple bid Cecilia goodbye and left the shop.
