Faux Vows, True Desires

Chapter 243

Trenton said, "You should hit the hay. You've got work tomorrow. I already had a rest, so I don't feel like crashing yet."

Owen tried to persuade him a few times, but Trenton was still hell-bent on staying up a bit longer.

So, he didn't say anything more; he got up and hit the bricks.

When he was out of sight, Derek poured Trenton a glass of water and asked quietly, "Why didn't you spill the beans to Owen?"

"Spill what beans?"

"Mrs. Coleman is a big shot from the Blue family. She's a force to be reckoned with."

After giving it some thought, Trenton replied, "Why would I tell him? I not only don't want to tell him, but I also want to keep him in the dark as much as possible."

"But if Owen crosses her, the Martinez family will have a new enemy."

Trenton said, "If he knew, Ruby would know. Ruby always thinks she's the princess of the Scott family, but has she ever thought about how much that title is really worth? Does she think her Scott family is still the same as it was years ago?

She looks down on Lucinda Moore and can't bear to be outdone by her. Let her continue to be arrogant and keep poking the bear. If she pisses off the Blue family, they'll deal with her. The Blue family is no pushover. At that point, even if Ruby turns to Owen for help, he won't be able to do anything.

Cecilia is gradually replacing Ruby in Owen's heart. Only then will Ruby truly leave here, and Owen will give up on her and accept Cecilia. No, he's actually chasing Cecilia, but Cecilia has no feelings for him." Trenton saw it all clearly. He could tell that Owen's feelings for Cecilia had changed, but Cecilia still didn't give a damn about his grandson.

Served him right!

Trenton had no sympathy for his grandson.

"Derek, remember, don't let the cat out of the bag in front of Owen."


Derek assured him, "Don't worry, I won't spill."
