Estella nodded innocently in response to their explanation.
It is true that I know nothing about the stock market, and hearing about it would mean nothing to me, anyway.
“Then finish up your discussion and come play with me!” Estella whined.
Benny gave Estella a guilty nod.
As he watched her climb up the bed, he produced his watch to send his father a message.
Meanwhile, Lucian was displeased after learning from Benny's message that Roxanne was going to the medical consultation again with Jack.
Though I can't bear to say anything to her, I'm even more unwilling to keep this to myself.
After mulling the matter over, Lucian called Jonathan and blamed him for telling Roxanne about the medical consultation run by the Damaris family and for introducing Jack to her.
Jonathan was deeply amused by his friend's accusations. “Are you kidding me? I did that to help you appease your wife! She would have left the country if not for the Damaris family's project!”
Since learning about the Farwell family calling off the engagement with the Pearson family, Jonathan had practically treated Roxanne as his sister-in-law.
Lucian was relieved by those words, and the hostility in his tone decreased.
“Anyway, you have somewhat played the matchmaker to their relationship. I'm now courting Roxanne, but she still insists on going with Jack. I can't say anything to her for fear of being accused of restricting
her freedom. What do you think I should do now?”
Jonathan froze for several seconds before regaining his composure. “You could have just said that you want my opinion.”
Lucian answered carelessly, “Whatever. So, what do you have in mind?”
As he did not have an answer just yet, Jonathan did not respond.
This is between them, and it's best if I don't interfere. Besides, my old tricks have been proven not to work. Lucian is the one who finally convinced Roxanne to say yes, but it's evident from the way he's speaking that he's upset.
A second later, Jonathan asked tentatively, “You can't stop her from going and you don't feel good about her spending time alone with Jack. Is that it?”
Lucian hummed in response.
“Then why don't you go with her?” Jonathan suggested. “She can't stop you from going if you decided to.”
Lucian remained silent for a long time.
Having thought his friend was dissatisfied with the idea, Jonathan was about to suggest something else when he realized that he had already been hung up on. He heaved an aggrieved sigh.
When will those two finally end up together, so my days of being the middle person can come to an end?
Standing in the CEO's office at Farwell Group, Cayden was looking blankly at his employer. “Are you sure you want to personally check the account in Jadeborough, Mr. Farwell?”
Lucian gave an indifferent nod. “Is there a problem?”
Cayden was filled with despair when his employer summoned him and stated his wish to inspect the account of one of their branches in Jadeborough.
That task never involved Lucian himself, as only the presence of the CFO would be required.
He could not imagine why his employer would make such a trip when there were many other urgent matters in the headquarters that required his attention.
At the sight of Lucian's determination, however, he could not say much else.
“One more thing, I will be there for a few days, so push everything on our itinerary back during this period,” Lucian instructed without the slightest change in his expression.
Cayden could do nothing else but nod.
