Chapter 917 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.
