Faux Vows, True Desires

Chapter 344

Stefan then sent over a few voice messages.

"Owen wants to scare off the other guy but also wants to keep his cool, without resorting to violence. However, his approach is easily misunderstood." Stefan laughed so hard that his belly hurt.

His arch-nemesis was definitely sent by the heavens to make him laugh.

Not everyone could understand Owen's thoughts and actions.

After her husband's explanation, Lucinda got it.

She laughed so hard that she was pounding on the table.

Cecilia felt super awkward and said to her friend, "Lucy, I'm off work, you manage the shop."

She was ready to go home, as she couldn't stand the drama anymore.

Lucinda teased, "Don't you want to see how long their standoff lasts?"

Cecilia awkwardly said, "I can't take it anymore."

Lucinda laughed till her stomach hurt and said, "Cecilia, you really picked a clown. If you two get back together, life would surely be a riot." That was just too funny!

She couldn't understand at all how Owen's move was meant to make his rival feel the danger and back off.

Thank God for Stefan's explanation.

Both were childhood rivals and knew each other very well.

If they were a boy and a girl, she and Cecilia surely wouldn't stand a chance.

"Cecilia."

Seeing Cecilia was about to leave, Owen and Avery shouted her name at the same time.

Owen, being more shameless, even grabbed Cecilia's hand.

Seeing Avery also calling Cecilia's name, Owen pushed the flower bouquet made of money in front of Avery and said, "Mr. Cooper, don't you think you're broke? Flowers wilt and can't be eaten or used, who would want them?"

Avery was speechless.
