Chapter 1740 A Lesson
"By the way, where's Lucian?”
Roxanne had scanned the room for Lucian upon regaining consciousness.
When there was no sign of him, she began to worry.
In fact, she wondered if she had really come up with the antidote or if Lucian had gone to see Jack instead.
The possibility that flashed across her mind made her feel unsettled.
Everyone exchanged glances at the mention of Lucian.
Roxanne's heart sank as she asked Madilyn, “What's wrong? Did he go-
Knowing Roxanne's concerns, Madilyn explained before she could finish, “No. You can rest assured that he didn't go and see Jack.” Noticing the skepticism in Roxanne's eyes, Madilyn elaborated, “He did plan to go, but we managed to come up with the antidote on time. He dropped the idea and fed you the antidote instead.”
The answer didn't address Roxanne's question. “Then where is he now?”
"He left after feeding you and making sure that it was working. I actually have no idea where he is...” Afraid that Roxanne was unconvinced, Madilyn added, "You can ask the children if you don't believe me. They can vouch for the fact I'm telling you the truth.”
Roxanne turned to face the children, and Archie said, "I was with Aunt Madilyn and Mr. Peregrine the entire time. The antidote is genuine.”
Although his words brought a sense of relief to Roxanne, she was still concerned about Lucian's whereabouts.
Where else can he be at a time like this?
