At seven that evening, Lucian's car rolled to a stop before the Farwell main residence.
The house was brightly lit. Lucian sat in the car for a few minutes before eventually stepping out, his footsteps echoing loudly off the pavement.
He walked from the gate to the door of the main building.
On the way, he didn't forget to recompose himself.
“Mr. Lucian.” The butler came out to greet him. “Mr. and Mrs. Farwell are having dinner inside.”
Lucian nodded and headed into the mansion with him.
Inside, he saw Sonya and Elias sitting at the dining table.
Sonya and Elias appeared to be discussing something, with Sonya seemingly unhappy and Elias seemingly powerless to do anything.
Upon spotting Lucian, Elias asked, “What brings you here? Have you had anything to eat? If not, want to join us?”
Lucian nodded and settled in the seat across from Sonya.
Sonya parted her lips and said, “You came at the right time. Your dad and I were talking about Elektra. You remember her, right? She's from the Lane family and grew up with you.”
Lucian belatedly remembered such a person existed after hearing his mother's words.
They had indeed grown up together, but the Lane family had gone overseas a few years ago.
“Elektra came back a few days ago and was telling us she wanted to meet you but didn't know when you would be free,” Sonya continued. “I think she's a great match for you and would be a lot better than Roxanne. She's kind and gentle, so you won't have to worry about her causing trouble like Aubree!”
She had been trying to explain her view to Elias, but he held fast to his own thought and thought her to be wrong. That was why the atmosphere seemed tense earlier.
Elias thought she shouldn't be saying that and interjected, “Stop interfering in Lucian's relationship. It has been years since they last met, so Elektra might not think that way!”
