Bound by Magic, Married by Fate Novel

Chapter 104 There were countless rumors about Lucius in Windmere , but every story could be summed up with the fact that Lucius was dangerous . Valerie asked , " What if I'm already involved with him? " Lucinda took a sip of her drink . " What do you mean by that ? " Valerie coughed awkwardly . " He's my legal husband now . " Lucinda choked and started coughing so hard that she almost passed out . Valerie hurried forward to help and managed to save Lucinda from her own drink . Once Lucinda caught her breath , she threw the drink aside and glared . " Did I hear you right ?

What did you just say ? Lucius is your legal husband ? You got married ? When did that happen ? " Valerie , is that the real reason you disappeared for a whole year ? It's been a year - don't tell me you two already have a kid ? Is it a boy or a girl ? How many children do you have ? What are their names ? " Wait , if you two are legally married , why wasn't there a wedding ? " Lucinda's voice suddenly rose . " I get it now ! Your marriage is a secret ! Did you force him , or did he force you ? No , that can't be right . Someone as fierce as you wouldn't be forced into anything .

So if he didn't , did you force him then ? " Lucinda gave Valerie a meaningful look . " What is it about him that caught your eye ? His looks ? His money ? Or does he have some kind of special habit that you couldn't resist ? " Valerie rubbed her forehead helplessly . " Lucinda , with your level of genius , you really should've gone into film instead of wasting your talent sketching suspect portraits for the police . " Under Lucinda's threatening stare , Valerie finally raised her hands in surrender and told Lucinda everything .

She told Lucinda why she had married Lucius , and why they were now living together . When she finished explaining , Lucinda clicked her tongue in disbelief . " What was Magnus thinking ? Doesn't he know that the one you really like is Harper ? " Realizing she had said something she shouldn't , Lucinda immediately covered her mouth . Sorry , Valerie , I didn't mean to ... " Chapter 104 2/2 Some things were better left unsaid , and Lucinda knew that she had crossed a line . Valerie patted her stomach lightly . " I'm hungry . Take me out to eat .

Lucinda's expression softened into a fond smile . " What do you want ? Name it . " Valerie thought for a moment . " I want to go to a seafood buffet . The kind that costs a ton of money . " Lucinda hooked an arm around Valerie's shoulder . " Let's go ! " At the vice dean's office in Arcton University , Sonia received a wonderful piece of news . " Uncle Renton , are you saying I can really represent Arcton University to secure this investment project ? " She was talking to Renton Jones , the deputy dean of Arcton University .

He was distantly related to the Woodward family and had always favored Sonia heavily . Renton was nearly 50 , with gold - rimmed glasses perched on his nose . He had a gentle yet authoritative demeanor . When it came to the students in the university , his influence surpassed that of the dean , Philip . He was also widely regarded as the top candidate to become the university's next dean . Renton shot Sonia an encouraging smile . " Your talent and capabilities are recognized as outstanding throughout Arcton University , especially in this field . At this moment , no one can compare to you . "
