Chapter 164

Jonathan’s parents and Sonya were with Alfred. After Lucian learned that he had been summoned for no apparent reason, he was just about to leave when Roxanne and Larry appeared in single file.

“If there’s nothing else, Mr. Queen, I’d like to return as the children are waiting for me.” Roxanne politely bid him farewell.

Henrietta was a little surprised. “Leaving so soon? It’s only halfway through the dinner party. Stay a little longer!”

Roxanne smiled apologetically, “Maybe another time. I’m worried about the children at home.”

Everyone present knew that she had two children. Thus, they decided to oblige her insistence.
