Chapter 120
"That night at the restaurant, I really put you through a hassle, huh?"
Now Lucinda understood why Stefan was so deeply in love with her.
The loyalty and deep affection he showed in rtionships was something he inherited it from his
elders.
His grandparents were probably a very loving couple when they were young.
Even though their hair has turned grey, their love for each other remained deep.
Lucinda admired such love.
She hoped that her rtionship with Stefan could be like Savannah and Patrick''s, remaining close
even with their grey hair.
"Seeing Stefan and Lucy being so close reminds me of our young days. Stefan now is just like you
back then."
Savannah reminisced about the past, her smile growing even softer.
"Stefan is our grandson, he grew up with us. He inherited our resilience and loyalty. This is a good
thing. At least, Lucinda will be the happiest woman in Pinehurst."
Patrick said it as if it was a matter of fact.
The children they raised won''t be reckless or yboys.
Their descendants were all honest people in society. If anyone dared to be irresponsible to women
and yed around, they would be kicked out of the house!
"Yep, Stefan is a responsible kid. Now that he''s married to Lucinda, she''s part of our family. No one
else stands a chance."
Savannah knew Patrick was referring to Ruby.
She asked Patrick, "Megan came yesterday, didn''t she?"
"Yes."
"She came back to the country because she found out about Ruby, right?"
"Probably. But why she came back is none of my business. I''ve never liked her that much, only for
the sake of Lucinda did I not send her away. Who does she think she is?"
"She came and started asking all sorts of questions about Stefan''s marriage. I know what she''s
thinking."
"Sure, Stefan and Ruby grew up together, but all these years, Stefan never got together with Ruby
because he didn''t like her. Just look at Stefan''s attitude towards Ruby and Lucy, and you''ll know
what true love is."
Patrick sneered, "Only you guys would think Stefan likes Ruby."
He never agreed with this view.
If his grandson and Ruby really liked each other, he wouldn''t still be single.
"Ruby loves Stefan so much, she won''t give up so easily. Do you think Ruby will take more drastic
measures against Lucy when shees out?"
Patrick said casually, "That''s something Stefan should think about. We don''t need to worry. When
Stefan decided to marry Lucinda, he should have known that Lucinda is his wife and they need to
face many things together. If he can''t protect his wife, he wouldn''t be getting married."
Savannah nodded in agreement.
Seeing that Patrick and Savannah stopped discussing her and Stefan, Lucinda went downstairs.
Hearing footsteps, the two elders turned to look at her.
"Grandpa, Grandma, good morning."
Lucinda greeted them somewhat embarrassingly.
Patrick and Savannah wake up earlier than her.
It''s all because of Stefan that she slept until now.
Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!
"Good morning, you must be hungry. Go wash your hands and prepare to have breakfast. Stefan
specially made it for you. He hasn''t cooked personally for a long time."
The kind Savannah smiled warmly, her eyes full of tenderness. Even though Lucinda slept till now,
Savannah showed no displeasure, instead, she seemed very happy.
Lucinda felt a bit shy under Savannah''s gaze.
"Have you guys eaten yet?"
"We''ve already eaten."
The two elders have a very regr lifestyle. No matter what the young people do, they stick to their
habits.
"Lucy, go have breakfast quickly. Your grandpa and I are going for a walk at the foot of the
mountain."
After Savannah finished speaking, she lightly nudged her partner.
Patrick quickly stood up, and the two old people supported each other as they left the main room.
Lucinda understood that they were intentionally leaving space for her and Stefan.
Hearing Lucinda''s voice, Stefan came out of the kitchen, still holding the breakfast he prepared for
Lucinda.
"Darling, good morning."
Stefan greeted her with a smile.
Lucinda went over and seeing no one else around, she hugged Stefan from behind, resting her
head on his back, whispering sweetly like a coquette.
"Darling, I woke up and you weren''t there."
Stefan was amused by her sweet voice.
He pulled her in front of him, smiling at her, "That''s my fault. Starting tomorrow, I promise you''ll see
me first thing when you wake up."
How he wished he could be sent off by her every day, weed home by her every evening, and
see her first thing in the morning.
"You must be hungry,e have breakfast. After you eat, I''ll take you out."
Stefan pulled out a chair for her.
Lucinda didn''t dare to flirt too much, afraid his mood might suddenly change, and the trip would be
cancelled.
She let go of him and sat down.
"I already ate, you eat." Stefan sat next to her, watching her eat the breakfast he personally made
for her, his eyes full of smiles.
"Darling, we agreed that I would drive when we go out."
Stefanughed and said, "I''ll keep my promise. But let me drive down the mountain. You''re not
familiar with the mountain roads."
Lucinda didn''t object.
"Stefan."
A voice unfamiliar to Lucinda sounded.
Soon, she saw a handsome man walk in.
When the handsome guy saw her, his eyes became sharp, like a knife sweeping over her for a
moment, then he retracted his sharp gaze, reced by a gentle expression with a hint of a smile.
He asked Stefan, "Stefan, is this your wife?"
He didn''t even wait for Stefan to respond, he just went ahead and introduced himself to Lucinda,
"Hey there, I''m Campbell Anderson, the fourth son of the Anderson family."
With that, he reached out his right hand to Lucinda.
Quickly standing up, Lucinda shook his hand.
"Hello."
Stefan said, "Lucy, Campbell is actually my uncle''s eldest son."
Lucinda nodded with a smile.
Last night, she had only met a few of Stefan''s uncles and aunts and their spouses, but she hadn''t
seen anyone of her own generation.
"Stefan," Campbell said, "I overslept today, and my mom had the nerve to toss out all the breakfast,
not letting me eat. I came over here to see if there''s anything left."
As he spoke, Campbell headed into the kitchen to grab some dishes. He didn''t need Stefan or
Lucinda to serve him. He just sat down and began to eat.
While eating, heplimented, "Stefan, your chefs here really do cook better than ours, it''s really
delicious."
Stefan responded a bit miffed, "I personally prepared this for Lucinda. Have a bit and then you can
leave."
Stefan didn''t believe for a second that Campbell''s mom would actually throw out all the breakfast.
Campbell was just using it as an excuse to scrutinize Lucinda, wanting to understand why she
caught Stefan''s fancy so much.
