Heartwrenching
Eventually, noon arrived.
Noticing that, Lucian asked Cayden to buy them lunch.
However, Peregrine and Roxanne were too absorbed in their work to eat.
“You should eat something.” Lucian persuaded resignedly, “Even if you don't, Old Mr. Lomax should still
do so.”
In response, Roxanne reluctantly turned her attention to Peregrine for a few seconds. “I heard from
Lucian that you've been staying up all night for the past few days, Old. Mr. Lomax. I bet you must be
tired. You should eat something. I can still keep my eyes on the screen.”
I am feeling quite tired. Peregrine sighed. “I suppose my body isn't as vigorous as it used to be. Very
well, then. I'll eat while you keep watch.” Then, he started eating at the side.
She nodded and returned to the screen to watch Madilyn work.
Furrowing his eyebrows, Lucian wanted to advise Roxanne to eat since she didn't seem to do that.
However, he swallowed his words when he thought about how she was saving herself.
Hence, he grabbed the lunchbox from Cayden, plopped down next to the bed, and fed her.
Roxanne was so focused that it took her a few seconds to realize she was eating.
She flashed an apologetic smile at him after detecting the heart-wrenching look in his eyes.
“It's fine if you work. Although, you still need to eat,” remarked Lucian with resignation.
Without hesitation, she shifted her sight back to the screen and saw Madilyn had inserted the rest of the
fluid into the testing instrument, waiting for the result.
When the test was over, Roxanne recommended, “It's noon already, so all of you should get some rest.
Linda, please help buy lunch for Madilyn and Mr. Queen.”
Linda promptly agreed and left.
The other two took a breather.
As Peregrine ate his lunch, he witnessed how Lucian cared for Roxanne and commented, “Your
relationship with him sure is splendid.”
Roxanne was slightly taken aback by that. Then, she realized she was still being fed lunch by Lucian like
a child.
Upon detecting the delight in the old man's eyes, she lowered hers with embarrassment and grabbed the
lunchbox from Lucian.
Lucian went along with her wish, placing the lunchbox and the cutleries on the table.
Again, Peregrine expressed his thoughts. “The Farwell boy is much more caring than his cold
appearance suggests.”
Roxanne could feel her cheeks burning as she beamed at Lucian. If it were six years ago, I wouldn't
have expected Lucian to care for me like this. Now that I finally have what I've dreamed of, I must hold
on to it tightly. There's no way I'll lose what's most precious to me because of Jack!
“I'm fairly certain he won't forgive me if I fail to save you today, based on what I've observed of you two
so far.” The edges of Peregrine's lips curved upward as he put aside the lunchbox.
Then he turned to Cayden. “Please send me to the research institute. I want to monitor the progress
there.”
In response, Cayden glanced at Lucian to seek his approval.
Instead of saying anything, Lucian hinted at Roxanne to make the decision.
“Regardless of how this ends, only my life's on the line. Lucian's simply worried about me. That's why he
looks a little unfriendly. Please don't mind him.” She first defended Lucian before speaking to Peregrine
gratefully. “With that said, I thank you in advance for your effort. I'll feel much more at ease with you
there.”
