Chapter 2000 Not What He Expected
After attending a short meeting at the office, Lucian rushed home immediately.
He had undergone formal antenatal training and knew all the procedures of taking care of a pregnant woman like the back of his hand. As such, he was determined to do everything himself.
Upon his arrival at the manor, he was surprised to see Jonathan and Madilyn there.
“You just brought health supplements yesterday, so what do you plan on giving today?” Lucian teased.
Yet he could sense Madilyn glaring at him, while Jonathan was also wearing a gloomy expression.
Only Roxanne was full of smiles.
She was well aware that the two of them, upon listening to her story, resented Lucian for how he treated her during those three years of marriage back then.
“What's wrong, Jonathan? Say something!”
Madilyn's frosty gaze caused Lucian's hair to stand on end.
Without hesitation, he tried to recall if he had gotten on Roxanne's nerves, as that was the likely reason for Madilyn's hostility.
“Lucian, do you still remember this wish bottle?”
Roxanne showed him the wish bottle in her hand. As if remembering something, she refolded the piece of purple paper and stuffed it back into the bottle.
A single glance was all it took for Lucian to remember what it was.
“Isn't this the wish bottle I gave you back then? Looks like Jonathan has dug it out. What about it? Are you guys talking about the past?” Jonathan asked, shooting a careful glance at Madilyn.
However, his nonchalance intensified Madilyn's anger, and she snapped, “Mr. Farwell, since you've known Roxanne a long time ago, why did you treat her that way after getting married to her back then?”
