Chapter 298
Owen''s eyes were glued to Cecilia. Remembering the agreement between them, she was just
returning his kindness. They were a married couple only in name, so their private lives were none of
each other''s business.
She never interfered with his activities even when he was getting cozy with Ruby.
So, if she wanted to go out and broaden her horizons, check out some different types of hotties,
what right did Owen have to stop her from doing so?
With that thought in mind, Cecilia felt a surge of confidence.
She picked up the wine bottle, filled Owen''s cup to the brim, and poured herself a full ss as well.
After putting down the bottle, she picked up her ss and said with a smile, "Come on, handsome,
cheers."
She took the initiative to clink sses with Owen. Owen tried to wrap his arm around her, but was
swiftly pushed away by her other hand.
As she pushed away his hand, Cecilia was still smiling, "Handsome, I don''t even have a boyfriend
yet."
Owen''s eyes were deep as he teasingly said, "I can be your boyfriend."
Cecilia took a sip of wine, heard his words, leaned towards him, deliberately touched his face, and
said, "You look familiar, have I seen you somewhere before?"
Tiffany chimed in, "I also feel like this handsome guy looks familiar. Now I remember, isn''t this
Owen, the president of the Ike group? The heir of the Martinez family, worth billions!"
"Owen." Cecilia drew out his name.
Hearing her speak like that, Owen''s cheek twitched.
Knowing her, the next thing she said won''t be pleasant to his ears.
Sure enough, Cecilia said disdainfully, "So you''re the one who got dumped."
Everyone was left speechless.
Owen''s face changed, almost unable to resist sshing his drink on her face.
"Everyone knows how obsessed Owen is with Ruby. The whole thing about men and women is just
like that, two people with so many years of feelings, if you say nothing happened, I really don''t
believe it. If Owen has been used by someone else, I''ll pass. I''m a clean freak, I''d rather go barefoot
than wear someone else''s worn-out shoes."
As Cecilia mocked Owen, she was still ncing at him to observe his reaction.
He just changed color for a moment, then started drinking, without refuting her, let alone getting
angry, Cecilia was baffled.
Although Owen''s expectations of Ruby fell through, after so many years of feelings, Owen couldn''t
completely let go of it overnight. His protection of Ruby was well known.
To Owen, she was at that point a stranger, and not even a good-looking one. She mocked him in
front of Owen, he just changed color for a moment, then started drinking as if he didn’t care about
her anymore.
When did Owen be so good-tempered?
Cecilia''s heart tightened, guessing that Owen had already recognized her because her voice didn''t
change.
Suddenly, Owen''s handsome face leaned towards her, almost touching her face. If she slightly lifted
her head, her lips would touch his.
He just had a drink, and the smell of alcohol was strong.
"You haven''t tried, how do you know I''m second-hand?"
Cecilia retorted, "How do you try a man?"
Owen''s eyes deepened. Cecilia felt that he seemed a bit like a cunning fox at that moment. Just as
she was about to push him away, he suddenly hugged her waist, and the next moment, she was
tightly held in his arms, and then, he whispered a few words in her ear.
Cecilia''s face turned red hearing those words.
She pushed Owen away forcefully.
Lucinda and Tiffany were stunned, and they were eager to know what Owen had said to Cecilia that
made her blush and look so angry suddenly.
Considering the topic they were discussing earlier, Lucinda suddenly understood.
Only she had such an experience, she understood.
Lucinda quickly poured herself a ss of wine, took a sip to steady her emotions.
She was sure, Owen must have recognized Cecilia.
Otherwise, he wouldn''t have acted like that.
Owen''s obsession with Ruby, in their eyes, was like a fool. But from another point of view, his
obsession with Ruby hadsted for over a decade, which showed his loyalty to the person he loved.
Over the years, he had never had any scandals with other women, let alone provoking other
women.
He was always waiting for Ruby, waiting for Ruby to realize the goodness in him, change her mind,
and eventually be with him.
Lucinda believed that he was a novice in male-female rtionships, inexperienced.
She had a deep understanding of the process of a boy bing a man. Stefan was also very
awkward, thinking he had a problem.
"What are they whispering about?"
Tiffany leaned close to Lucinda''s ear and asked quietly, "Are they discussing how to prove that a
man is not second-hand? How should it be tested?"
She also wanted to test her man.

But her man would freeze even with a kiss. It seemed that he was still very pure, waiting for her to
teach him.
But she didn''t have any practical experience either, how would she be able to educate him?
Lucinda''s face also turned red, she pinched Tiffany quietly, and whispered, "I don''t know, I''m still a
child, just in kindergarten."
Tiffany was left speechless.
Only Lucinda was not a child, okay!
Saying that there was a child in Lucinda''s belly, she could believe that.
"Oops!"
Cecilia identally knocked over a bottle of wine, the wine spilled on the table, and some sshed
on her clothes. She quickly wiped it with a tissue, and then said to everyone, "Sorry, I''m going to the
restroom."
Actually, she wanted an excuse to leave that room and be out of their sight.
She felt that Owen had recognized her.
It was all her fault for not being careful enough with what she was doing!
Owen didn''t stop her from going to the bathroom, but when Cecilia left the room, Owen gave the
bodyguards a look, all the eight bodyguards understood what he wanted them to do, and followed
her out of the room.
Lucinda and Tiffany exchanged a look, then Tiffany said to Owen, "Handsome, only my friend is
interested in you, we two are not interested in you. You wait here for my friend, we are going to find
other handsome guys, we''re leaving first."
Tiffany pulled Lucinda up and they left.
Owen didn''t say anything and didn''t stop them from leaving either.
After they left the private room, Tiffany led Lucinda towards the bathroom.
Lucinda nervously asked, "Tiffany, I think we''ve been found out, what should we do? Owen didn''t
stop us, he might have his bodyguards waiting for us at the exit."
There were eight bodyguards at the club''s entrance, even if they could get out of the private room,
they couldn''t leave the club.
"So, we need to change our looks ASAP, I''ll call someone to bring us three sets of clothes."
"Alright."
Lucinda felt extremely lucky to have Tiffany by her side, otherwise, she and Cecilia would surely get
caught.
