Faux Vows, True Desires novel Chapter 307

Keith frowned and said, "Don't use the readers as an excuse, and don't mislead them. Even when writing a novel, it should be filled with positive thoughts. Don't taint their innocent minds."

Lucinda was muttering something under her breath.

"Lucy, what are you mumbling about?"

"I was saying how my brother is such a moral guy. I wonder which lucky girl gets to have you. I promise you that I won't go to those places anymore. I'll always consider the interests of the Andersons and the Blues in everything I do."

She was now Stefan's wife, publicly known to everyone in Pinehurst.

Given Stefan's social standing, if her actions were found to be improper, it would indeed tarnish both Stefan's and her own reputation.

He always thought of her in everything he did, so she should also consider him.

After a stern lecturing from her older brother, Lucinda realized her folly from last night. Before that, she was only regretful that she got caught before she could enjoy herself properly.

Keith sighed and said, "Lucy, if circumstances allow, I would love to indulge you, let you do whatever you want. But, we are often helpless."

"Brother, I know I messed up."

"Has Stefan done anything over the line to you? If he dares to hurt you, you tell me." After scolding his sister, Keith started worrying about whether Stefan would punish her.

He believed it was their duty to discipline his sister if she messed up. If Stefan dared to lay hands on his sister, that was domestic violence!

Although he thought Stefan wouldn't hurt Lucinda, he still couldn't help but ask. If Stefan really did hurt Lucinda, he'd have a reason to take her back to the Blues sooner.

Marriage can be annulled; his sister need not worry about not being able to get married.

Lucinda quickly reassured him, "Brother, Stefan is good to me. He won't hurt me. My hair falling out is my own doing. It's worse when I wash it. In any case, my hair loss has nothing to do with Stefan."

Keith said, "Your hair loss is severe. You might be overthinking. You need to take care of yourself. Alright, give the phone back to Stefan. He wouldn't call me if there's nothing."

"You knew he had something to talk about, yet you still scolded me first." Lucinda grumbled, handing the phone back to Stefan.

Stefan said quietly, "Can you investigate if any male members of your family have mistresses?"

Thinking about his father and Madeleine Porter's close relationship, Madeleine could be considered his father-in-law's mistress. He added, "Besides your father."

"OK. Stefan, I'm not there anymore. Take good care of Lucy. Don't spoil her too much; she'll become arrogant. If anything happens, you'll be the one to clean up the mess. I'm safely home now, and you guys have fun. Take care of mom. Nothing else, that's all."

With that, Keith hung up the call.

Stefan looked at his phone for a moment, then held his wife tightly.

Seemed like things at Skywatch were getting serious.

Once Keith returned to Skywatch, all their phone conversations were just small talk.

However, Keith understood his intentions, and he understood Keith's.

He just felt sorry for his future wife having to face harsh realities.

In life, we have to experience twists and turns and all sorts of feelings.

"Dear, no matter what happens in the future, wherever you want to go, I'll always support you."

Stefan said calmly, "I won't let you struggle alone."

"Dear, thank you. I'm so lucky to have you!"

"Nathan."

Madeleine's voice had a coquettish tone as she said, "I heard that Lucy was found. Which one is Lucy? Quick, introduce us."

Nathan replied, "Lucy hasn't come back. She's staying in Pinehurst for now; she needs some time to adjust. When she comes back, I'll introduce you all. I think you guys can get along."

Hearing his father's words, Keith wanted to reprimand him again.

Hoping for Lucy and Madeleine to get along, wasn't that hinting that he and Madeleine would end up together?

Madeleine was ambitious. These past years, she had been targeting him openly and secretly. How could his father still say such things?

During those few days in Pinehurst, Nathan and Keith couldn't get as close as a typical father and son, but it was better than it was in Skywatch. At least they could have a decent conversation without losing their tempers.

As soon as they hit Skywatch, even before stepping into the house, Madeleine made their relationship frosty in an instant.

Listening to Nathan's words, Madeleine laughed joyfully, showing an understanding of the bigger picture. She said, "Lucy is your daughter, and I'm sure we can get along fine. We're not far apart in age, so there won't be any communication barriers. I'm sure we can find common ground.

Oh, by the way, Lucy didn't come back with you guys this time, and you didn't give me a heads up. I had prepared many gifts for Lucy and even had the kitchen whip up a bunch of delicious dishes. Now it seems like I've wasted my efforts."

"Can't I eat the food that was prepared?"

Nathan retorted.

She immediately giggled and leaned her head on his shoulder, saying, "I prefer cooking for you myself. As for the gifts I prepared for Lucy, do you want to hold onto them, or should I put them in her room? I've had her room cleaned and tidied up as well."

She appeared completely in the role of the lady of the Blue family.
