Leaving The Country After Divorce

Chapter 314 Feeling Smug

Sonya’s response unequivocally took Aubree by surprise. The latter quickly turned her head, only to realize that Lucian was standing by the door.

Instantly, she reviewed her speech in her head and was relieved that she did not say anything that could have exposed her scheme. Her gaze then fell on Sonya. “There’s no need for you to be so formal, Mrs. Farwell. It was something I should have done. Please, don’t even mention it,” she said in a gentle voice.

Sonya furrowed her brows and replied, “You’re such a sweet girl. Are you trying to make me feel more terrible than I already am?”

Obediently, Aubree said nothing else.

Sonya shot Lucian a glance. “If it weren’t for Aubree, you wouldn’t be able to see me standing here anymore. No matter what, the Farwell family owes Aubree a favor. I’m still in shock, so I don’t think I’m the best person to take care of her right now. Therefore, it’s your duty to care for her in the meantime.”

At that point, everyone in the room had their eyes on Lucian.

Frowning, the latter said curtly, “Okay.”

He had no intention of getting acquainted with Aubree. However, he could not find any excuse to reject his mother since Aubree did save Sonya this time.
