Faux Vows, True Desires

Chapter 280

Stefan drove Lucinda back to the Serendipity Cafe.

Before they even got close, they could see a few cars parked outside the cafe.

"Dad's here."

Lucinda guessed her father might be there just by looking at those cars.

"Your mom's here too."

Lucinda felt a bit nervous, fearing her parents would start arguing.

"Don't worry, Dad won't fight with Mom, and Mom won't argue with Dad in the shop. They'll consider how it might affect your business."

Stefan comforted his wife.

After they parked the car, Lucinda got out and walked into the cafe.

"Lucy, you're back."

Cecilia saw her friend return, and quickly came up to her, whispering, "Your parents are arguing."

Fiona also came over, whispering to Lucinda, "We can't stop them."

Following their gaze, Lucinda saw her father piling money on the table, taking up most of the space. Her mother stood on the side with a blank expression, apparently trying to get Nathan to leave. "What are they arguing about?" Lucinda asked quietly.

Fiona was the first to arrive and saw everything, so she answered, "Your dad was already waiting here when I came to open up this morning. As soon as I opened the door, he came in and sat down, but he didn't order any coffee or food. When your mom arrived, she saw your dad, and her face changed. She walked straight up to him and told him to leave. Your dad said he was a customer who came for coffee and snacks and that it's not good business to drive customers away."


Lucinda asked in a hushed tone, "What's with all the money?"
