Chapter 69

SEBASTIAN

I didn’t waste any minutes. I drove straight to my friend’s house. Since becoming a family man, he always gets home by five in the afternoon. That’s why, instead of heading to his house, I went straight to his house. I’m determined to get my son, no matter what happens. And Lucas is the best lawyer I’ve known and a good friend of mine. If I want to win this battle, I need him by my side.

“Mr. Foster, good evening,” one of the maids greeted me.

“Good evening. Please inform Lucas of my presence,” I told her. I didn’t get the chance to call before showing up. I was so focused on getting the job done that I didn’t see the need to call.

It didn’t take long before Lucas walked down the stairs to greet me.

“Sebastian? What brings you here?” Lucas was greeted with a frown.

“I need your help,” I said straightforwardly. I didn’t come here to beat around the bush.

“Sure. Let’s go to my office,” he said as he led the way to his office.

“I hope Garried doesn’t mind me barging in unannounced,” I said as he stepped inside his home office.

“Oh, she does mind, bud. I have a strict bedtime, you know? She only allows me to talk to you for fifteen minutes. So, I need to be back to my wife’s arm as soon as possible,” he answered as he continued to walk towards the bar counter before pouring a glass of scotch. “What’s up? Your clock is ticking,” he chuckled before handing me one of the glasses that he had prepared.

He walked around his work desk while I took the liberty of sitting on the chair in front of his table.

“Don’t worry. This wouldn’t take long,” I answered.

“Okay, shoot!” he said as he sat on his swivel chair before sipping from his glass.

“I need you to be my lawyer,” I started.

“Of course! That’s why I’m in your retainer, right? So, what is this all about?” he asked curiously.

“I need you to do everything in my power to get me my son,” I said.
