Faux Vows, True Desires novel Chapter 211

Lucinda mentioned that she was totally on board with her mom's plan.

But they had to be sneaky about it and make her vague-memory grandma taste the bitterness of losing a husband.

Lucinda learned from her brother that her grandma loved her a lot because she inherited her incredible looks.

It wasn't that noticeable when she was a baby, but now she looked a lot like her grandma in her younger days.

After learning all this, Lucinda was pretty bummed out.

Her grandma, who treated her like a jewel, hurt her mother.

When she was taken away by the Avila family, the one who suffered the most was definitely her mother.

How could grandma blame her mother for that?

“Mom.”

Lucinda hugged her mom's shoulders tightly and gently said, “It's all water under the bridge.”

She'll deal with all the grudges later.

Janice blinked away the tears in her eyes and said, “Thank God, my husband is loyal in love. He doesn't even like socializing outside.”

Lucinda snorted.

If her dad was really loyal, he wouldn't have messed around while her mom was sick, let alone refused to divorce.

Madeleine from the Porter family, who always wanted to take her mom's place, was only two years older than her.

At the age of twenty-six, she's supposed to be a stepmother to a twenty-four-year-old. Why would Madeleine like Nathan? Other than his maturity now, it's all about Nathan's status.

In Skywatch, the Porter family was the second-wealthiest family.

If Madeleine became the lady of the Blue family, it would be a win-win situation; it would boost the power of the Porter family, and they might even surpass the Blue family.

Bypassing the Blue family must be the wish of the master of the Porter family.

Otherwise, why would he let his young and beautiful daughter marry Nathan and be someone else's stepmother?

Janice was forty-eight this year; Nathan was two years older than her, so he's fifty.

Nathan was twenty-four years older than Madeleine; he could totally be Madeleine's father.

“Lucy.”

Janice suddenly changed the subject and asked, “Didn't you say you opened a coffee shop? Can you take me to your shop?”

Lucinda looked at the sky; even though it was late, they hadn't had dinner yet.

“If you want to, I can take you there now.”

Janice looked very pleased and said, “Let's go then. I haven't been out for a long time.”

Lucinda looked at her mother's pale skin, which was the result of rarely getting sun exposure.

Recently, as Janice moved to Pinehurst with her son, her face became ruddier due to more sun exposure and not as pale as before.

Janice wanted to visit the Serendipity Cafe.

Due to restrictions, Lucinda couldn't drive, so Stefan drove his wife and the two ladies to the Serendipity Cafe.

The bodyguard Keith left behind followed in two cars.

Vincent and his parents didn't go together; the old couple felt they were too old to enjoy such a long drive.

Mason and the Anderson family's old couple were a bit stiff at first, but when they started talking about work, they found common ground, and the four old folks started chatting away.

Compared to the Moore family's old folks, who spent their lives working in the fields, the Anderson family's old couple were slightly inexperienced. They humbly asked for advice, which made the Moore family's old folks feel that the Anderson family's old folks were just like them, ordinary people.

The only differences were that the Anderson family's house was bigger and prettier, and their land was more extensive.

By the time they arrived at the Serendipity Cafe, it was already seven in the evening.
