Faux Vows, True Desires

Fiona and Janice didn't really care how Ruby's fall turned out, as long as Ruby didn't mess with Lucinda.

Ruby's arrival was just an accident. Lucinda was busy making snacks.

Just then, Stefan called her, and she had to take the call first.

"Hey, sweetheart."

As soon as the call was connected, Stefan's magnetic voice came through. Cecilia, who was nearby, could hear it, so she leaned over to Lucinda's ear and teased her in a low voice, "Can you smell the charm?"

Lucinda pushed her away, and Cecilia burst into laughter.

She really envied Lucinda, who lived such a blissful and sweet life.

"Sweetheart, aren't you busy?" Lucinda asked softly.

"Busy, yeah, but I missed you too much, so I found a moment to call you."

Lucinda giggled, "We just had lunch together."

"But whenever you're not by my side, I miss you every second."

"Lucinda, did something good happen? You sound pretty cheerful."

Actually, Stefan had just received a report from Zoey. Ruby went to the Serendipity Cafe again.

With the Blue family's bodyguard there, Stefan was not worried about Lucinda being bullied, but he could not help calling to check. He didn't want Lucinda to know that he had asked Zoey to secretly protect her, for fear that Lucinda would misunderstand that he was spying on her and controlling her.
