The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 456

Chapter 456

Lucian’s brows knitted into a tight knot as he replied in a low voice, “Okay. I’ll do my best to control myself.”

Jonathan breathed a sigh of relief and turned to walk toward Alfred’s room. “I think that Grandpa should be awake now. Let’s go inside. To be honest, he will be incredibly happy to see you since you have not been able to visit for a long time.”

“I really was pretty busy recently,” Lucian said as he caught up with Jonathan.

“And yet, you still had the time to go to Summerbank with Dr. Jarvis,” Jonathan teased

When Lucian recalled the events that had happened in that particular city, his face darkened. “I just happen to have work to take care of in Summerbank.”

Jonathan smiled wordlessly.

The two men walked over to Alfred’s room, and Jonathan raised a hand to knock on the door. After hearing Alfred’s voice from inside the room, they opened the door and walked in.

“Grandpa, Lucian is here to see you,” Jonathan said to Alfred with a smile after entering the room.

“Hello, Old Mr. Queen,” Lucian greeted politely.

Alfred had just woken up from his nap. He tried to push himself up into a sitting position.

Jonathan quickly walked over to give Alfred a hand while Lucian filled some water into the cup that was on the table. The latter then walked over to Alfred and passed the cup to him.

Alfred took a sip of water and smiled at the young man next to him. “Things aren’t as busy over at the company anymore?”

Lucian nodded. “Things are pretty slow at the office these days, therefore I decided to come and visit you. How have you been lately?”

“I’ve been feeling much better. As for you young people, please remember to take care of yourselves as well. Don’t overwork yourself,” Alfred said in contentment.

“I will. Don’t worry,” Lucian promised.
