At night, Lucian, who was wearing a dress shirt and had his jacket draped on his arm, strode out of the first floor of the Farwell Group office building.
Right as he walked out of the entrance, he heard the sound of a car honking.
He turned around and spotted Jonathan's car, which was parked right in front of the building.

“Didn’t we agree to meet at the club? Why are you here?” Jonathan wound down the window and winked at him. “How can | let a crestfallen man drive? I'm your buddy, and I'll be your driver this time.” Lucian’s gaze darkened at that, and he pursed his lips. “How can | be crestfallen over nothing?” He opened the car door and got into the car before tossing his jacket on the back seat.
Jonathan frowned, and he parted his lips to say something.
Yet, when he turned around, he saw that Lucian had already closed his eyes to nap.
Clearly, Lucian did not want to listen to anything else from him.
In resignation, Jonathan looked away and started the car.

Things must be really bad between them this time, Jonathan thought.
On the way to their destination, both kept their silence, deep in their own thoughts.

Both men opened their doors and got out of the car.
Jonathan gave his keys to the valet, then went upstairs to the private rooms with Lucian.
This was a club they frequented, and they knew the owner of the club.

Only when Lucian and Jonathan were the only ones left in the room did Jonathan open the bottle of expensive wine. Then he poured a glass for Lucian and himself.
“I hear that Essie’s matter ended up quite messy.” On his way to the club, Jonathan had been thinking of how he was going to make Lucian talk, and in the end, he decided to start with Estella.

However, Estella did not appear on the next day.

There was nothing Lucian wanted to hide, so he nodded in indifferently.
Jonathan raised his brows in surprise. “Essie agreed to it? How did you convince her?” For a while after that, the room was silent.
Jonathan slowly realized that Lucian did not get Estella to agree to it in the first place.
That must be why she’s throwing a tantrum and stopped going to kindergarten after a day.
Jonathan cleared his throat awkwardly. “How is Essie feeling recently?” Lucian picked up his wineglass and took a sip from it. “She was sulking the past two days, but she’s fine now.”
