Chapter 1990 Drastic Changes

By the time Lucian and his family returned to the manor, Cayden called and said, “Mr. Farwell, I've gathered evidence of Dave Rynder's corrupt practices and handed it over to the authorities. He'll probably be dismissed soon!”

Lucian felt there was no point in showing Dave mercy since he had no desire to see the latter's disgusting face again. After stopping the car, Lucian got down and carried the two boys into the house.

Roxanne, too, carried Estella like how Lucian did. Upon seeing that, Sonya could not help but mutter, “You kids are old enough to walk on your own. Why do you still need your daddy and mommy to carry you?”

Elias immediately noticed the injuries on Archie and Benny's knees. He walked up and checked on them. “What happened? Did they fall?”

"Dad, they're fine. I've treated their wounds. They should recover in two days,” Roxanne responded while putting Estella down.

The little girl ran over to check on the boys and was surprised. “Mommy, the medicine is really effective! Their wounds are already healing!”

Sonya hurried over and checked on Archie and Benny when she learned that Lucian was only carrying them because they were injured.

She and Elias were relieved after confirming that their grandchildren's injuries were not serious.

“Archie, Benny, injuries on knees might take time to heal, so make sure you walk less and avoid getting the wounds wet!” Roxanne reminded. The boys bobbed their heads in response.

Not long after dinner, Jonathan arrived at the manor with Madilyn in his car.

Their unexpected visit took Lucian and Roxanne by surprise.

“Y-You two...” Roxanne glanced at Jonathan before turning her attention to Madilyn. They're well-dressed today.

Clad in a pair of casual clothes and abandoning his usual stiff demeanor, Jonathan looked more mature and dignified. Madilyn, on the other hand, wore a dress that accentuated her curves and enhanced her charm.

Even Lucian could not help praising Jonathan, “Jonathan, the way you dress today reminds me of my charming young self.” The other three people exchanged glances. How old is he? Why is he talking like an old man?

However, the question Roxanne asked next instantly made them feel awkward. “Are you two on a date today?”

Hearing that, Jonathan appeared flustered. He bounced up from his seat as soon as he sat down before stealing a glance at Madilyn.

Madilyn behaved just as nervous as if someone had exposed their secret. Her face turned crimson red almost instantly, and she glared at Roxanne.

“N-No, no, no, no, no...” Both Jonathan and Madilyn denied it simultaneously.

Lucian sighed inwardly. It's so obvious they're hiding something from us!NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.

Amused, Roxanne smirked as she watched them blush and panic, finding their reaction quite amusing.

“| just bought him dinner to thank him for his help at the hospital. That's all!” Madilyn was still busy explaining while Jonathan had quietened down.

“Lucian, Roxanne, we made a trip over here because my family found some exquisite herbs when they went to Xandenia to procure medicinal herbs. Since Roxanne is pregnant, I'm sure these exquisite herbs can supplement her nutrition,” Jonathan explained the reason for their visit while Madilyn inclined her head in agreement.

“That's very thoughtful of you, Jonathan. You seem to have changed a lot lately. Did something happen?” Roxanne asked out of curiosity.

Ever since Jonathan returned to work, his demeanor did a one- eighty for mysterious reasons. He was like a completely different person, and even his mannerisms had changed drastically.

Lucian remained composed but perked up his ears, eager to hear what Jonathan had to say
