When the two women arrived at the club, Jonathan had already sobered up a little.
He tensed up when he saw Aubree entering the room with his sister.
Jonathan vaguely recalled Lucian making a call in his drunken stupor earlier, but he thought Lucian had made a call of regret to Roxanne with the courage of his drunken state.
Even if it was not a call to Roxanne, Lucian should have called Cayden instead.
Alas, Lucian had called Aubree.
So all that talk earlier was a waste of my breath! Lucian has really given up on Roxanne.
“Lucian, how do you feel?”
Aubree instantly went to Lucian's side the moment she stepped into the room, and she began studying the man with concern.
Lucian had drunk more than Jonathan, and by then, he was already out of his mind.
His only reaction to Aubree's voice was a small nod and a slight furrow of his brows.
“Aubree, you should bring Lucian back first. Leave my brother to me,” Frieda suggested.
Aubree agreed to it with no hesitance. Nonetheless, she had trouble lifting Lucian into an upright position.
Just as she was about to head outside to ask for help from the server, Cayden suddenly came toward her.
“Ms. Pearson, where is Mr. Farwell? He called me earlier and told me to send you both home.”
As it turned out, Lucian had contacted Cayden right after calling Aubree.
Even when he was drunk, he still could not let his guard down around Aubree.
The sight of Cayden made Aubree narrow her eyes. As she shifted her body to make way for Cayden, she said, “He's inside. Help him out of the room, will you?”
Cayden nodded and hurried inside. He first brought Lucian into the car. Then he helped Frieda support Jonathan into Frieda's car.
Before leaving, Cayden said worriedly, “Ms. Queen, are you sure you're fine by yourself?”
