Chapter 599
Cayden was suddenly wide awake upon hearing what his boss said.
Are my ears playing tricks on me? Did Mr. Farwell just ask me to search for florists? Is he really intending to
do THAT?
Cayden had forgotten to reply to Lucian, as he was still in a state of shock.
As all Lucian heard was silence on the other end of the line, he frowned and asked, “Can you hear me?”
Snapping back to his senses at once, Cayden answered, “Yes, Mr. Farwell. Please give me a while. I’ll find out right away!”
Lucian merely hummed a reply before ending the call.
His original intention was to get Cayden to purchase the flowers on his behalf. However, he decided to do it personally in the end, taking into consideration the significance of th
A few minutes later, Lucian received a text from his assistant with the websites and contact details of two florists.

Clicking open the links, Lucian browsed through the information of both shops before deciding
on one.
The next morning, Lucian headed to the florist after sending Estella to kindergarten slightly earlier than usual.
“Hi, are you looking for flowers?” the shop assistant asked when she noticed the man standing outside the store.
Lucian nodded slightly. The crease between his brows deepened as he looked at the offerings in the florist.
It was his first time buying flowers for someone, and he had no idea what to get.
Instantly, the shop assistant noticed the man’s confusion and stepped forward to assist him. “Different flowers have different meanings. Are you
buying flowers for your girlfriend?”
Girlfriend?
Lucian’s expression darkened when he heard that word. After a short pause, he nodded briefly.
Seeing his response, the shop assistant could not help but feel envious.
I wonder who the lucky woman who has such a handsome boyfriend is. He’s also such a sweet man to be choosing flowers for her personally.

“If it’s for
your girlfriend, I would recommend red roses! We have a few ready–made bouquets inside the shop. Please feel free to come in and take a look,” the
shop assistant suggested enthusiastically, putting aside her envy.
Hearing that, the man nodded and followed the woman into the shop.
The moment he stepped inside, he was greeted with the fragrance of fresh flowers.
The shop assistant picked up a bouquet of flowers that was on display and showed
it to Lucian. “This is the most popular bouquet in our shop among couples. You might want to consider getting it.”
Looking at the bouquet for
a while, he decided to go with the shop assistant’s suggestion, as he had completely no idea what women liked. The shop assistant was enthusiastic when she recommended it t
After a brief moment of contemplation, he nodded and instructed, “I’ll get this one then.”
“Do you want to attach a card to it? If so, would you like to have any message written on the card?” the shop assistant asked.
That was when Lucian recalled his conversation with Jonathan the day before. Jonathan had also told him that he should write a message together with the flowers.

As for what he should write on the card….
Lucian furrowed his brows and pondered over it for a moment before asking in a deep voice, “Can you pass me the card? I want to write the message myself.”
The shop assistant agreed immediately and passed him a card and a pen.
With a crease between his brows, Lucian ruminated for a while before he picked up the pen and started writing.
After he was done, he folded the card and passed it back to the shop assistant.
“Is there anything else I can help you with?” the woman asked.
Shaking his head, Lucian left after providing the delivery address.
He had followed Jonathan’s suggestion and wrote his heartfelt feelings on the card, and he wondered how Roxanne would react when she read his message.
Unable to contain her curiosity, the shop assistant took a peek at the card after Lucian left the florist.
She was baffled when she saw the man’s angular handwriting on the card.
It was the first time she had seen someone leaving such a vague note with a bouquet of roses.
