Frieda left the Queen residence without a second glance after packing up her belongings.
Their parents thought of persuading Jonathan to forgive his sister, but Jonathan solemnly retorted, “I'm not the one who drove her away today. She knew she was guilty, and that was why she chose to leave. Also, please stop spoiling her. If not for Lucian's dismissal, our entire Queen family would have been ruined by her!”
Right as those words left his lips, a wave of frustration washed over him, and he stood up to leave.
The car window was wound down as he drove, and he let the cold wind lash against his face.
Jonathan felt the sudden urge for some alcohol, but there was no one suitable to have a drink with.
Lucian would not reject his invitation, but he did not want to interrupt Lucian spending time with his family.
Cayden would be a good choice if not for his recently busy schedule.
After a while of contemplation, Jonathan realized he did not have many friends.
He had been too serious in recent years.
Every decision he made in recent years was preceded by careful deliberation in order to develop the Queen family enough to catch up with Farwell Group.
Sure enough, the Queen family was now powerful. He did not limit them to only the medicinal herbs business—he also ventured into other fields with Lucian. Lucian never once left him behind as he would always give Jonathan a chance for investment.
Those were things his younger sister did not understand.
After stopping the car on a bridge, he got out of it to look at the surface of the river a distance away. As the cold breeze wrapped around him, he slowly calmed down.
Jonathan was good at recomposing himself, after all. Right as he was about to turn around, he noticed a new car crashing into the back of his car.
A loud bang ensued.
Then, a woman's scream of terror came. Jonathan checked the back of his Mercedes-Benz and realized it had not suffered much damage.
