Faux Vows, True Desires novel Chapter 120

"That night at the restaurant, I really put you through a hassle, huh?"

Now Lucinda understood why Stefan was so deeply in love with her.

The loyalty and deep affection he showed in relationships was something he inherited it from his elders.

His grandparents were probably a very loving couple when they were young.

Even though their hair has turned grey, their love for each other remained deep.

Lucinda admired such love.

She hoped that her relationship with Stefan could be like Savannah and Patrick's, remaining close even with their grey hair.

"Seeing Stefan and Lucy being so close reminds me of our young days. Stefan now is just like you back then."

Savannah reminisced about the past, her smile growing even softer.

"Stefan is our grandson, he grew up with us. He inherited our resilience and loyalty. This is a good thing. At least, Lucinda will be the happiest woman in Pinehurst."

Patrick said it as if it was a matter of fact.

The children they raised won't be reckless or playboys.

Their descendants were all honest people in society. If anyone dared to be irresponsible to women and played around, they would be kicked out of the house!

"Yep, Stefan is a responsible kid. Now that he's married to Lucinda, she's part of our family. No one else stands a chance."

Savannah knew Patrick was referring to Ruby.

She asked Patrick, "Megan came yesterday, didn't she?"

"Yes."

"She came back to the country because she found out about Ruby, right?"

"Probably. But why she came back is none of my business. I've never liked her that much, only for the sake of Lucinda did I not send her away. Who does she think she is?"

"She came and started asking all sorts of questions about Stefan's marriage. I know what she's thinking."

"Sure, Stefan and Ruby grew up together, but all these years, Stefan never got together with Ruby because he didn't like her. Just look at Stefan's attitude towards Ruby and Lucy, and you'll know what true love is."

Patrick sneered, "Only you guys would think Stefan likes Ruby."

He never agreed with this view.

If his grandson and Ruby really liked each other, he wouldn't still be single.

"Ruby loves Stefan so much, she won't give up so easily. Do you think Ruby will take more drastic measures against Lucy when she comes out?"

Patrick said casually, "That's something Stefan should think about. We don't need to worry. When Stefan decided to marry Lucinda, he should have known that Lucinda is his wife and they need to face many things together. If he can't protect his wife, he wouldn't be getting married."

Savannah nodded in agreement.

Seeing that Patrick and Savannah stopped discussing her and Stefan, Lucinda went downstairs.

Hearing footsteps, the two elders turned to look at her.

"Grandpa, Grandma, good morning."

Lucinda greeted them somewhat embarrassingly.

Patrick and Savannah wake up earlier than her.

It's all because of Stefan that she slept until now.

"Good morning, you must be hungry. Go wash your hands and prepare to have breakfast. Stefan specially made it for you. He hasn't cooked personally for a long time."

The kind Savannah smiled warmly, her eyes full of tenderness. Even though Lucinda slept till now, Savannah showed no displeasure, instead, she seemed very happy.

Lucinda felt a bit shy under Savannah's gaze.

"Have you guys eaten yet?"
