Chapter 983 My Turn
“Mr. Farwell,” Catalina greeted him when she saw him enter. She had prepared dinner. “Dinner is—”
Before she could finish her sentence, Lucian interrupted tiredly, “I won’t be eating; I’ll be resting upstairs. I’ll leave Essie to you.” Right as he said that, Estella entered the house.
Noticing that Lucian seemed unwell, Catalina said nothing else. After watching Lucian head up the stairs, she led the girl to the dining table.
Estella was staring up the stairs with a worried look on her face. “Daddy’s not feeling well.” Catalina patted her head and reassured her, “I’ll go and take a look at him later. Eat while dinner is hot, Ms. Estella.”
Estella was still worried and was distracted throughout dinner. After finally finishing her meal, she made to run up the stairs. Catalina hurried after her.
The door to Lucian’s bedroom was tightly shut. Estella knocked on the door cautiously but received no response. “Daddy?” she called out. Silence answered her. She glanced at Catalina anxiously.

Even Catalina was starting to worry. She had seen how pale Lucian looked. Still, as she thought that he would be able to take care of himself, and since Estella needed taking care of, she did not head upstairs right away.
She did not expect the situation to be this serious. Catalina and Estella exchanged a glance before the former hesitantly opened the door.
Fortunately, Lucian did not have the habit of locking his door, so they could get into the room with ease. As it turned out, Lucian was lying on his bed, securely under his covers. He was asleep.
