Helpless
Lucian remained quiet while wearing a poker face. Taking in Lucian’s reaction, Jonathan sighed in
exasperation.
“Weren’t you thinking about doing something romantic? What else is more romantic than providing help
to her when she needs it most?”
Lucian narrowed his eyes indifferently. “That’s not needed.” I’ll do those romantic things in the future. I
won’t help her this time because she brought this upon herself. This mess wouldn’t have happened if
she had come here to keep Essie company instead of tagging along with Jack to handle those
medicinal herbs that day.
He took his anger wholly out on her for the occurrence of the fire incident. Jonathan was clueless about
everything that took place during those two days, so he was baffled when Lucian rejected his
suggestion.
Lucian didn’t elaborate, either. He simply looked away, showing no inclination to speak further.
A moment later, Jonathan couldn’t help but ask him, “Lucian, what is the relationship you hope to
establish with Dr. Jarvis?”
The way he saw it, Lucian didn’t strike him as someone who was trying to chase after Roxanne.
Lucian knitted his brows in silence.
“Let me ask the question in a different way.” Jonathan smiled tactfully. “Do you still plan on pursuing Dr.
Jarvis?”
This time, Lucian glanced at him impassively.
Jonathan understood Lucian’s personality well, so from the latter’s response, he knew Lucian had
tacitly agreed that he was still interested in her. Perceiving that, Jonathan let out a sigh of relief
inwardly.
He was under the assumption that Lucian and Roxanne had, unbeknownst to him, gone through too
many arguments, prompting Lucian to have a change of heart.
It’s fine as long as he’s still planning to win her affection. In my opinion, Dr. Jarvis is undoubtedly the
most suitable person to be with Lucian. After all, it is very rare for Lucian to take the initiative to express
his will to chase after a girl, not to mention the woman is also Essie’s biological mother. It will be
wonderful if they get together.
At that thought, Jonathan was convinced that he should try harder to assist them in becoming an
official couple.
He cleared his throat and said, “In this case, you should show Dr. Jarvis more care. This relationship
won’t work if you constantly fight with her.”
Lucian shot Jonathan a displeased look and spoke up before he could stop himself. “Are you saying I’m
the cause of these arguments?”
Jonathan was stumped after hearing that. I don’t know the reason behind their disagreement, much
less who is to blame, but…
He advised Lucian, “No matter who brings about the fight, you must be more tolerant since you want to
pursue Dr. Jarvis. All women behave in this way. Regardless of who is at fault, they will always hope for
the guys to yield first. Besides, previously, you…”
Jonathan stopped talking at that point and regarded Lucian with a meaningful look, hinting at the latter
to understand what he was implying.
Meeting Jonathan’s gaze, Lucian frowned.
Needless to say, Jonathan was once again reminding him of the incident six years ago.
Lucian didn’t answer immediately, nor did Jonathan utter any more words as he waited for Lucian to
digest the message he was trying to convey.
After a while, Lucian’s voice rang inside the car. “I got it.”
Jonathan immediately heaved a sigh of relief. “I’m glad that you understand. Don’t blame me for talking
at length. I have Essie’s best interest at heart. If possible, any child would wish for their mother to stay
by their side.”
At the mention of Estella, Lucian’s gaze darkened.
He had to admit Jonathan was absolutely right because the little girl had demonstrated her yearning to
be with Roxanne more exaggeratedly than Jonathan had described.
Lucian felt helpless when reminded of how desperately Estella wished him to win Roxanne’s affection.
