Faux Vows, True Desires novel Chapter 377

"Mum, no way. Keith will definitely get married and have kids."

Upon hearing her mother's words, Lucinda, although worried that her brother would not want to get married because of their parents' marriage, could only reassure her mother.

Stefan also chimed in with some comforting words.

At that moment, Janice's cellphone rang.

Upon seeing the caller ID, she smiled at Lucinda and Stefan, "It's your brother calling."

Janice answered the call.

"Mom."

Keith began with an apology, "Sorry for keeping you waiting. I just got free now."

Since their father had been called back home by Pete Blue and had not returned to the office, Keith had been left in charge of all important matters at the Blue Corporation.

The corporation was so huge that even just dealing with important paperwork could keep him so busy he didn't even have time to drink water.

"It's alright. I wasn't waiting. I just woke up from a nap and received your call. Keith, don't tire yourself out too much. Take care of your health. That's the most important thing."

Janice showed concern for her son.

She didn't want her son to know that she had been waiting for his call.

"Mom, I will. Is Lucy back yet?"

Keith casually asked about his younger sister.

Technically, there weren’t many topics for him to talk with Janice about. Having grown up under the strict supervision of his father and the eccentricity of his mother, he never really experienced normal familial affection. Now that his mother was back to normal and he was an adult, capable of handling his affairs, their phone calls were mostly about everyday life.

"Lucy and Stefan just got back. They went to a banquet tonight. Do you want to speak to Lucy?"

Without waiting for her son's response, Janice handed the phone over to her daughter.

"Keith."

Hearing his sister's voice, a smile spread across Keith's tired face, "How was the banquet with Stefan?"

"It was good. Made a lot of new friends."

"The road ahead of you won't be an easy one. It's good to make more friends."

Keith himself had attended many banquets, but at these events, he was as cold as an iceberg. Apart from a few CEOs who would greet him out of business courtesy, people generally kept their distance from him.

As for the women, they didn't dare to approach him, even if they found him attractive, due to the cold and intimidating bodyguards that surrounded him.

"Yeah, how's dad?"

Lucinda remembered her father's affairs, "What happened afterwards? About that woman who schemed against dad, isn't dad going to do anything about it?"

Keith laughed upon hearing this.

"It must be exciting. Tell me and mom quickly."

Lucinda moved closer to her mother so that she too could hear what Keith would say.
