Chapter 1101 What Is Going On
When the two women arrived at the club, Jonathan had already sobered up a little.
He tensed up when he saw Aubree entering the room with his sister.
Jonathan vaguely recalled Lucian making a call in his drunken stupor earlier, but he thought Lucian had made a call
of regret to Roxanne with the courage of his drunken state.
Even if it was not a call to Roxanne, Lucian should have called Cayden instead.
Alas, Lucian had called Aubree.
So all that talk earlier was a waste of my breath! Lucian has really given up on Roxanne.
“Lucian, how do you feel?”
Aubree instantly went to Lucian’s side the moment she stepped into the room, and she began studying the man
with concern.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLucian had drunk more than Jonathan, and by then, he was already out of his mind.
His only reaction to Aubree’s voice was a small nod and a slight furrow of his brows.
“Aubree, you should bring Lucian back first. Leave my brother to me,” Frieda suggested.
Aubree agreed to it with no hesitance. Nonetheless, she had trouble lifting Lucian into an upright position.
Just as she was about to head outside to ask for help from the server, Cayden suddenly came toward her.
“Ms. Pearson, where is Mr. Farwell? He called me earlier and told me to send you both home.”
As it turned out, Lucian had contacted Cayden right after calling Aubree.
Even when he was drunk, he still could not let his guard down around Aubree.
The sight of Cayden made Aubree narrow her eyes. As she shifted her body to make way for Cayden, she said,
“He’s inside. Help him out of the room, will you?”
Cayden nodded and hurried inside. He first brought Lucian into the car. Then he helped Frieda support Jonathan into
Frieda’s car.
Before leaving, Cayden said worriedly, “Ms. Queen, are you sure you’re fine by yourself?”
Frieda waved her hand nonchalantly. “Don’t worry. Jonathan’s not one to kick up a fuss after he gets drunk. He’ll
just sleep like a pig later. Go ahead and take care of Lucian.”
It was only then Cayden returned to Aubree’s car.
Aubree was seated in the back seat, and beside her was the drunk and unconscious Lucian.
Shortly after, Cayden started the car and drove toward the Farwell residence.
While they were on their way to their destination, Aubree glanced at the man beside her from the corner of her
eyes.
Even though they had been engaged for six years, it was her first time sitting beside Lucian in this way.
In the past, Lucian had avoided her as if she was a plague.
Right as Aubree was reveling in her feelings of pleasant surprise, the car abruptly lurched forward.
Lucian was already in an awkward position, and after the lurch, he was even closer to Aubree.
A glint danced across Aubree’s eyes when she saw how much closer she and Lucian was. Then she glanced at
Cayden.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen she realized he was not paying attention to the back seat, Aubree carefully reached out to tug Lucian’s
sleeve and pull him closer to her.
Now, Lucian Farwell was leaning against her.
Aubree was simultaneously excited and nervous.
Right then, Cayden stopped the car at a red light and instinctively glanced at the rearview mirror.
His heart skipped a beat when he saw how Lucian was intimately leaning against Aubree.
What’s going on?
Cayden already sensed something off when he saw Aubree at the room entrance earlier.
I recall that Mr. Farwell doesn’t like Aubree and is doing his best in courting Roxanne. Why is he suddenly so close
with Aubree, then? Why did he ask Aubree to send him back when he was drunk?
Seemingly sensing his gaze, Aubree lifted her head to look at Cayden.
Cayden shuddered and quietly looked away.
