Chapter 332


    Stefan watched his rival in silence for a moment before saying, "You''ve already made up your mind,


    so why are you here bothering me?"


    "I just needed someone to vent to. Both of our marriages are contract-based so I figure we can


    rte to that."


    Owen was seriously getting on his nerves.


    Given Owen''s character, if he truly wanted to spend his life with Cecilia, he wouldn''t agree to a


    divorce. But he couldn''t just stand by and watch Cecilia get hit by her mother, even if it was all an


    act. What if she really hit Cecilia?


    If Cecilia got hurt, it would torment him.


    Stefan chuckled, "The path I and Lucy took can''t be replicated by you and Cecilia."


    Owen paused.


    "Stefan, you were lucky dude. What others can’t get, you got without batting an eye, status, look,


    and even love. You have it way easier than the rest of us."


    Life was unfair to everyone.


    "You''re not doing so bad yourself. Your love troubles are born from your own stubbornness. You


    never listen to advice until it''s toote. If you''d listened, you might have had a kid by now.”


    At the mention of a child, a sh passed through Owen’s eyes. He asked Stefan, "You and Lucinda


    have been married for a while now. When are you nning to have the wedding? When are you


    nning to have a kid? Can I call dibs on being the godfather?"


    "Owen, have you forgotten our history? Do you want to be my kid''s godfather? Being a godfather


    wasn''t as simple as just calling yourself one."


    Owenughed, "Even though we''re always at odds, we don''t really hate each other. If pushes


    to shove, I''d help you out, and you wouldn''t ignore me either. What''s wrong with me being your kid''s


    godfather? Given your wife''s rtionship with Cecilia, Cecilia was bound to be the godmother. So,


    the godfather has to be me!"


    Owen was adamant, and he was determined to be with Cecilia.


    "Don''t worry, I won''t shortchange your kid. If it''s a girl, I''ll prepare a generous gift for her when she


    gets married. If it''s a boy, I''ll gift him a vi and a luxury car when he gets married. They won''t be


    calling me godfather for nothing."


    Stefan couldn’t help butugh, "You''re pulling out all the stops for Cecilia. Owen, you''re rather


    emotional, aren''t you? Alright, in a few years, when I have a kid, they can call you godfather."


    "In a few years? You''re not nning on having kids soon?" Owen asked, his tone suggestive.


    "Don''t talk about me being emotional. You''re the same when ites to your wife, Lucinda. You''re


    reckless when it came to her. Stefan, you finally have a weak spot. If I wanted to take you down."


    Owen stopped there. He remembered Lucinda''s true identity. She was an heiress of the Blue family,


    and he had witnessed the Blue family''s influence firsthand.


    If he dared to harm Lucinda, not only would he antagonize both the Anderson and Blue families, but


    Cecilia would also stop him.


    "Lucy ns on returning to Skywatch to take over the family business. We''re not nning on having


    kids anytime soon. You better start saving up. When my wife and I eventually have kids, you can gift


    us some vis.”


    Owen, "How many kids are you nning on having?"


    "As for how many kids we''re having, we haven''t decided yet. You just need to have your money


    ready."


    Owen was speechless.


    Was Stefan nning on making money off him by having kids?


    Nevertheless, he got the answer he wanted and already had a n in mind.


    In the next two years, he would pursue Cecilia, make her his wife again, and then they''d have a


    child early. Then, he could surpass Stefan.


    Thinking of this, he was ecstatic.


    Stefan: “You''re getting a divorce tomorrow!”


    Owen: “I justughed a little, and you''re already raining on my parade.”


    Emma came over and said, "Mr. Coleman, dinner is ready."


    Stefan asked him, "Want to join?"


    "Of course. How could I pass up the chance to have you treat me to a meal? It''s a rare opportunity."


    Stefanughed, "Try Emma''s cooking."


    "Emma''s cooking must be amazing. You''re a picky eater, and she wouldn''t havested as your


    housekeeper if her cooking wasn''t up to par."


    Emma smiled and said, "Thank you for thepliment, Mr. Martinez."


    The two rivals ended up having dinner together.


    After a satisfying meal, Owen was in a better mood. He was kicked out of the vi by Stefan and


    had no choice but to go home.


    The next day, Ruby showed up at Stefan''s vi with a bunch of reporters. Her mother was with her.


    This is property ? of N?velDrama.Org.


    She went to the Serendipity Cafe in the daytime, but Lucinda wasn''t there.


    Stefan insisted she apologize to Lucinda publicly and sincerely, so she came early in the morning


    with a bunch of reporters. That should show sincerity.


    Since Lucinda and her husband didn''t return to Ascend Estate, Tiffany rushed over to do Lucinda''s


    make-up. Liam also came along.


    As soon as they entered the house, they heard that Ruby had arrived.


    Ruby had changed into simple clothes, wore in shoes, and had no make-up on. She looked a bit


    old without make-up, nearing thirty.


    But to satisfy Stefan, Ruby had to do this. She had to apologize to Lucinda in the humblest manner.


    Looking at Lucinda standing next to Stefan, Lucinda''s outfit seemed simple, but the material was


    top-notch.


    Ruby could tell at a nce that Lucinda''s outfit, including the hair essory, were incredibly


    expensive, worth tens of thousands at least.


    The first time sheid eyes on Lucinda, she had a hunch that Lucinda might be bad news. Turned


    out, she was spot-on, and all her efforts went down the drain, nearly losing everything she had.


    Deep down, Ruby was boiling with rage towards Lucinda and Cecilia.


    On the surface, though, she had to put on a sincere act.


    "Lucinda, I''m sorry. The whole video fiasco was my doing. I smeared your reputation, made you the


    target of insults, and was misunderstood by others. There are no two ways about it. It hurt you


    badly. I''m sorry!”


    Ruby forced herself to apologize to Lucinda sincerely, bowing deeply to her.


    "Lucinda, I''m begging for your forgiveness. I swear I won''t be a pain in your neck anymore.”


    Stefan was never hers, to begin with!


    She should''ve woken up and smelled the coffee sooner. If she had, she wouldn''t have lost Owen,


    who once loved her deeply.


    Thinking about not getting what she pursued and losing what she had, a flicker of resentment


    shed through Ruby''s eyes.
