The Abandoned Wife

Chapter 383

The speculation Jonathan made in the morning plagued his mind for the entire day.

When he went off work at night, he called Lucian.

The man on the other end of the line was swift to answer the call. "Is something the matter, Jonathan?"

Jonathan briefly chuckled. "It's been a while since we met. Are you free tonight for a drink?"

Lucian creased his forehead when he heard that-he knew Jonathan had something to say to him, so he lowered his voice and agreed to it.

After ending the call, Lucian instructed Cayden to pick Estella up from the kindergarten before he drove to a private club he frequented.

Just as he entered the establishment, the server came over. "Mr. Farwell, Mr. Queen has been waiting for you."

Lucian nodded slightly and followed the server upstairs into a private room.

Even though Jonathan had invited Lucian out for a drink, there was only a bottle of beer on the table. The rest that was on the table were plates of delectable dishes.

Jonathan was lost in his thoughts on the couch. When he saw Lucian entering the room, he slowly straightened up and smiled. "I wanted to buy you a drink, but today's a busy day, and I haven't gotten to eat yet, so it's mealtime instead."

Nodding, Lucian asked the server to leave.
