    Chapter 396


    “Mr. Farwell?”


    When Cayden saw his employer walking over with Roxanne, he subconsciously presumed that the


    latter would be getting into their car. Unexpectedly, he saw her getting into the car with Jonathan while


    Lucian stood outside.


    After a moment, he decided to call out to the man cautiously.


    His brows furrowing slightly, Lucian bent down and climbed into the car.


    Cayden slowly started the car and drove out of the parking lot.


    Meanwhile, in the adjacent car, Jonathan asked Roxanne for her address and ordered the driver to


    drop her home first.


    In response, the driver murmured an acknowledgment.


    He moved to start the car, but it simply wouldn‘t start.


    It still didn‘t work after multiple tries. “The car seems to have broken down, Mr. Queen,” the driver


    reported helplessly.


    Upon hearing that, Jonathan imperceptibly swept his gaze over Roxanne beside him. He wore a grim


    expression. “It was just fine when we came over. Why did it suddenly break down?”


    A conflicted expression manifested on the driver‘s face. “Uh… I haven‘t been driving this car much. I


    didn‘t take it for maintenance either, so I don‘t know what happened. How about you wait here for a


    while, and I‘ll go back and retrieve another car beforeing back to pick you up?”


    Following that, Jonathan turned to Roxanne to seek her opinion.


    Roxanne simrly didn‘t expect such an incident. When she heard that the driver had to go to such


    trouble, she wavered for a while before suggesting, “My car is nearby. We can take my car.”

    I‘ve got to return to retrieve my car tomorrow, so it makes no difference if I go to the Queen residence


    instead.


    As soon as Jonathan heard that, his expression froze. Unbidden, a headache assailed him,


    Gah! I actually forgot that she drove here. If we were to take her car, the arrangements tonight would


    go to waste!


    In the front, the driver wore a troubled expression on his face. He eyed Jonathan, waiting for thetter‘s


    instructions.


    Frowning, Jonathan countered solemnly, “There‘s no need to go to such trouble, Lucian is definitely still


    nearby, so we‘ll just ask him for a ride.”


    At his proposal, Roxanne‘s brows knitted together. At the same time, disapproval stained her


    features. She was going to demur, but the man had already made the call.


    In no time, the person on the other end of the phone answered the call.


    Thus, she had no choice but to swallow the demurral on the tip of her tongue.


    “What‘s the matter?” Lucian‘s alluring voice echoed in the car.


    “Where are you now, Lucian? My car has seemingly broken down. Do you mind giving us a ride if


    you‘re still nearby?” Jonathan queried.


    On the other end of the phone, Cayden tactfully slowed the car without waiting for Lucian‘s orders. He


    lifted his eyes and peered at thetter‘s expression.


    Lucian inclined his head a fraction.


    Immediately discerning his meaning, Cayden turned back around and drove toward the parking lot.


    “Come out. I‘ll meet you at the entrance of the parking lot,” Lucian replied in a deep voice.


    Jonathan agreed with a grin.


    After hanging up the phone, he turned to Roxanne nonchntly and eximed smilingly, “Let‘s go!


    Lucian is at the entrance of the parking lot. He‘ll drive past your ce on his way home anyway.”


    At longst, Roxanne had the opportunity to turn him down. “I‘ll just take a taxi home instead of


    troubling Mr. Farwell.”


    Having said that, she swung open the car door and alighted from the car..


    Taken aback, Jonathan swiftly got out of the car and chased after her. Trailing behind her, he riposted,


    “It won‘t be any trouble at all since he‘s going the same way. Besides, I’ll worry if you take a taxi alone


    at this hour,”


    Roxanne‘s brows creased. Just when she was about to decline again, the man abruptly remarked


    meaningfully, “By the way, the atmosphere between you and Lucian seemed off at the dinner table


    earlier. I remember that everything was fine when Ist saw you with him. Are you both keeping some


    secret from me? Did he do something to you?”


    At that question, Roxanne regarded him suspiciously.


    However, Jonathan remained calm and unruffled.
