Faux Vows, True Desires novel Chapter 157

Every time Lucinda thought of that mentally unstable woman, her biological mother, she can't help but feel a pang of heartache.

When she first found out that she wasn't a natural-born Moore, she thought she had been abandoned by her biological parents.

However, when her adoptive mother handed her some old baby clothes and a necklace and she heard the unstable woman calling out for her baby in her dreams twice, she started to suspect she wasn't abandoned after all.

When the woman from her dreams became a reality, standing in front of her, clutching a doll and calling it baby, unable to recognize her own son, Lucinda felt as if her heart was being sliced open with a knife.

Was it her disappearance that caused her mother's mental breakdown?

Ironically, the mother and daughter reunite but can't recognize each other.

If she hadn't dreamed of her twice, she would never have guessed that the unstable woman was her biological mother.

Maybe she would have missed the chance to recognize each other over and over again.

"What has she been through all these years? She's become so"

Lucinda choked up.

Stefan held her tightly, comforting her in a soft voice: "Lucy, don't think too much for now; everything will make sense eventually."

Lucinda held him back tightly.

Even though they've only been married for a short time, less than a month, they've been through so much together, things she could never have imagined happening.

She's a storyteller, and her novels were filled with complex plots, but she knew that novels were just fiction and can't be taken seriously.

Who would have thought that real life could also be filled with such complicated plots?

No wonder people said that fiction stemmed from life.

Lucinda had bumped into a woman who might be her biological mother, and after Lucinda left, Cecilia locked up her shop, hopped on her electric bike, and headed home.

Who knew she would be stopped by Owen's convoy on the way?

Owen looked pissed.

Cecilia knew why. But it wasn't her fault.

Why was Owen angry?

Owen rolled down the window and commanded Cecilia, "Get in the car!"

"Why?"

Impatiently, Owen replied, "What else could it be? My grandfather wants us to have dinner together, together!"

He emphasized the word "together".

He thought getting a marriage certificate was enough and that Cecilia signing the agreement would keep their marriage a secret, but he overlooked the fact that his grandfather wouldn't let him hide his marriage.

Even if he hadn't announced Cecilia's identity to the public, in the Martinez family, Cecilia's identity needs to be made public.

The reason they're going home for dinner tonight was definitely because of this.

"Move it, get in the car. If the paparazzi see you and start rumors, I'll dock your allowance for a year."

Cecilia glared at him and said, "What about my electric bike?"

Looking at her bike, Owen coldly said, "Dump it."

Just a few hundred dollar electric bike, and she rode it around town; it's embarrassing. If people found out his wife's vehicle was an electric bike, how would he explain it?

Cecilia replied, "I just bought it recently; it cost me over three hundred dollars. You go ahead; I'll put the bike back at home and take a taxi."

Owen said displeasedly, "Didn't you hear what I just said? My grandfather wants me to take you home for dinner! Get in the car! You treat a three hundred dollar electric bike like a treasure."

Cecilia just walked away.

She didn't want to argue with Mr. Malicious.

His words were unbearable; every extra word was unnecessary.

His attitude made her feel like she had done something wrong.

When in fact, it was he who was incompetent, threatened by his own grandfather, yet he bullied her.

Was she easy to bully?
