A while later, Jonathan reached the Farwell residence.
Jonathan had come in a hurry, thinking that something urgent had happened.
However, Lucian was calmly drinking tea in the living room. He even invited Jonathan to join him.
After a brief chat about the supply of medicinal herbs, Lucian started inquiring about Jonathan's health.
“I'm in good health. Also, we're in the line of supplying medicinal herbs, so we're more attentive to our health. What's on your mind, Lucian?” Jonathan curiously asked.
It was obvious that Lucian's interest was piqued. “I'm not saying that there's anything issue with your health, but you've been slaving away for the family business. Don't you think you should do a proper checkup?”
Jonathan nodded in agreement. “In that case, I'll do one.”
“Good. I've already made an appointment for you. You'll be doing the checkup in Roxanne's hospital, okay?” Lucian was worried that Jonathan might detect something amiss, but evidently, his worries were for naught.
The dense Jonathan nodded again. “Is tomorrow fine? I'll head there in the morning.”
Lucian bobbed his head, but at the same time, he began wondering how Madilyn was going to deal with the dense man.
“By the way, Lucian, I've noticed some issues popping up with our overseas client. There is a rise in client complaints, and some are even trying to ask for lower prices. I'll be looking into this for more details.”
Jonathan was a workaholic, and he always talked about work.
Lucian bobbed his head as the look in his eyes changed. “You don't need to do that. It's Shawn. He's trying to take our clients away from us. Let's not alert him to our realization and let him dwell in his glee for now. We have more than enough clients to keep our business afloat. Since these people aren't interested in being the best in the market, let's replace them all. We'll wait until they break the contract first.”
Jonathan nodded, even more impressed by Lucian.
