Faux Vows, True Desires

Chapter 324

"Lucinda." Ike pushed open the door and walked in to find Lucinda sitting at the cashier's desk, furiously typing away at her computer. Clearly, she was working on her novel again. "Ike, aren't you pulling an all-nighter tonight?"

Ike's arrival made Lucinda pause her latest piece.

She got up and walked over to Ike.

"I'm off to a party soon." Ike looked around, "Where's Cecilia?"

"I'm covering her shift tonight. She's already gone home. Do you need her for something?"

"I was hoping she could do me a favor, but if she's not here. Never mind."

Lucinda playfully put her hand on Ike's shoulder and asked, "Ike, something's eating you. Tell me."

Ike blushed.

"Ike, are you planning to have Cecilia as your arm candy for the party, to make my future sister-in-law jealous?"

Ike tapped her forehead lightly, "Lucinda, sometimes I wish you weren't so sharp."

"Don't play that old trick. It could backfire if not played right. If my future sister-in-law gets the wrong idea, you won't be able to talk your way out of it. Plus, if you get Cecilia involved, Owen won't be pleased." "Just so you know, Owen's fuming now. He's looking for someone to vent on, so don't poke the bear."

Ike was speechless.

"Are you trying to see if my future sister-in-law actually cares about you? There are other ways to test that without dragging someone else into it."

"Really?"


Lucinda looked at Ike. She shook her head and sighed, "You guys are all the same."

He was smart but emotionally clueless.
