Faux Vows, True Desires

Lucinda chuckled. "My brother's bodyguard is around here. Do you think they wouldn't know about this little thing? I should be the one asking you, Who's been pushing us to have a kid?"

They'd never discussed having kids before, so if he's mentioning it now, someone must have put the idea in their heads.

"Keith got drunk last night, and it was Ike who helped him upstairs. I helped too. Then Ike asked me when he was going to be an uncle."

Stefan spilled all the beans.

He really did want to have a child with Lucinda.

But Lucinda had her plate full at the moment, so it would be better for her if they didn't rush into having kids.

They could consider it after they officially tie the knot.

He remembered Keith saying that after Lucinda returned to the Blue family, they would keep her for another two years, so there was no rush to get married.

Stefan sighed inwardly.

It's not easy to marry a woman in this day and age. Those without capability and patience were bound to fail easily.

"Well, they're not going to be uncles this month anyway. I just got my period."

Lucinda paused, then said, "I'm not planning on having kids anytime soon. Stefan, let's not talk about this for now. We're still young. You asked me about Ruby secretly filming me earlier, right? How did you know? It just happened twenty minutes ago."

"Your husband has very keen observation and auditory skills. I always find out about the things I want to know."

Lucinda chuckled lightly. "So, how many people have you arranged to secretly protect me?"

Stefan said nonchalantly, "How could I spy on you? You're my wife! I trust you 100%."

"Stefan, do you remember what I do for a living?"

"You run a coffee shop and write online novels. Oh, your readers have been complaining that you update too slowly, even threatening to send you complaint letters in the comments. I was thinking of investing in a stationery factory to sell to your readers and make money off them."

Stefan was just joking. If anyone actually sent complaint letters to his wife, he would surely be pissed off.

Lucinda: "You really know how to do business!"
