Given a fright, Cayden was briefly stunned before he made a random excuse. “I was thinking if we should do something about the flowers because they'll quickly dry out if we leave them be."
Giving the flowers a frustrated look, Lucian replied a few seconds later, “Do as you will.”
Breathing a sigh of relief, Cayden concurred, “In that case, I'll put them in a vase later.”
Lucian gave him a tacit nod before motioning him to continue with the reports.
This time, Cayden got a grip on himself and managed to concentrate.
Once he was done reporting, Cayden gave Lucian a wary look and asked, “Shall I go get a vase now, Mr.
Farwell?”
However, Lucian didn't reply as he was already engrossed in work.
Having worked for Lucian for many years, Cayden was naturally aware that silence meant the former giving his implicit approval.
As a result, Cayden went off to fill a vase with water before silently treading back into the office and putting the roses in it.
While doing so, he caught a glimpse of the card that was placed among the flowers. The sight of it filled Layden with a sense of sorrow.
The way he saw it, Lucian was serious about Roxanne, as he had never seen the former do something like that before.
Unfortunately, the first flowers that Lucian had sent in his life ended up being rejected, causing Layden to wonder what was going through Roxanne's mind.
Before he could recover from the shock of it all, the company received another bouquet of flowers that Lucian had to personally receive.
Coincidentally, Cayden had returned from lunch just like the day before.
At that moment, everyone in the lobby gawked at him, while the receptionist gave him a helpless look.
Evidently, they were waiting for him to deal with the sensitive matter.
Upon recalling the scowl on Lucian's face when he brought the flowers in the day before, Cayden felt a sudden chill down his spine.
Turning his thoughts to the one who returned the flowers, Cayden was just overwhelmed with frustration.
