Faux Vows, True Desires novel Chapter 368

After Cecilia ended her call with her friend, she rushed to answer the ringing phone at the shop, thinking it was a food delivery order. However, to her surprise, it was her mother.

"Mom, why are you calling?"

Cecilia was taken aback. Her mom rarely called her at work.

"Your phone was busy, so I had no choice but to call your shop number."

"I was just talking to Lucy. Mom, I won't be coming home for dinner tonight. Lucy is accompanying Stefan to a social engagement, and I have to handle the shop."

Becca seemed as if she hadn’t heard what her daughter had just said and suddenly asked, "What's going on between you and Owen?"

"We’re divorced, aren’t we? What else could there be?"

"I've seen your divorce papers, but whether it’s genuine or not, I don't know. With Owen's capabilities, getting a fake divorce paper is as easy as having dinner."

"Mom, you don't trust Owen, and you don't trust your daughter either? I was the one who wanted to divorce and it was with your help that I convinced Owen to agree. How could I possibly get a fake divorce? The divorce certificate is absolutely real unless the authorities were fake."

"So, what's the meaning of him sending a car to our house? And parking it in our yard? Your brother saw it and said it's a Maserati, worth several million."

Cecilia choked.

Mr. Martinez!

She thought she had declined the new car and when he left, his bodyguards drove it away in the morning. She thought it was over.

Who would have thought he would have sent the car to her home, especially at this time.

At this time, both her mother and grandfather were home; her father and brother also returned at this time. The front gate was unlocked, providing Mr. Martinez with convenience.

"Mom, he came to the shop this morning, wanting to give me that new car, but I rejected it. Is he still at our house?"

"He didn't come; it was his bodyguards who sent the car and left the keys by our doorstep and disappeared.”

Becca appeared quite angry.

"Since you rejected it, I'll have your brother return this car. We can't accept something so valuable. Even if you want a real relationship with him, don't seek his wealth and valuable gifts. You don’t want his parents looking down on you, thinking you're only with him for his wealth."

Although Becca didn't like Owen, she knew her daughter had some feelings for him.

As for the gap between them in reality, if they could overcome it, what could she, as her mother, say?

"Mom, I understand."

"Alright, take care of the shop, I'll go cook."

After notifying her daughter, Becca arranged for her son to return the new car to Owen.

Hudson Yates directly drove the car to the Martinez family.

When he arrived at the Martinez mansion, he was stopped by the security guards. After introducing himself, the guards went inside to announce his presence.

Luckily, the elder wasn't at home, and only Olina, dressed elegantly and preparing to go out, was inside.

Upon hearing that Cecilia's brother had come, Olina showed a look of disgust and told the servant, "He's here to freeload. I told you Cecilia is only after our wealth. The elder Mr. Martinez must have been fooled by her, I don't know what methods she used to get his approval."

The divorce between Owen and Cecilia wasn't made public, and only the elder Mr. Martinez and Derek knew about it.

"Madam, how should we handle this? Should we let him in or ask him to leave?"
