Mission To Remarry

CHAPTER 1929 AN IMPORTANT SECRET

“Lucian, Roxanne, the two of you have been up all night. You should go upstairs and get some rest.”

Upon returning to the mansion and after checking on his slumbering mother, James urged Roxanne and Lucian to get some rest.

The two of them realized that the Lann father and son still had unspoken words. Hence, they tactfully went away to allow them to communicate.

However, they were quite exhausted as well. That night, the two of them slept soundly. When they woke up the next day, it was already past nine o'clock in the morning.

When the two of them got up to wash up, they heard Yennefer shouting outside the house.

“Roxanne, Lucian, it's time to eat breakfast!” Yennefer appeared to be in great condition that day. She wore a smile as she glanced at Roxanne with a somewhat satisfied looking expression.

When the two of them headed downstairs, James came over and informed them that he had brought his mother up to speed when he saw her that morning.

Lucian grew a little nervous. “Everything? What was her reaction? Is she willing to go through with it?”

“No, no. Lucian, you're mistaken. I only explained to my mother the current timeline. I told her that she had been in a coma for a long time but omitted the part about you and Roxanne getting married. I think she wants to help plan the wedding. She nearly gave Mrs. Farwell a call this morning!”

So, that was what happened.

Roxanne and Lucian exchanged glances. Good thing it was only a false alarm.

If James really told Yennefer everything, the latter was likely unable to hold it together.

“Roxanne, it was thanks to your suggestion that I met with my mother. I was really worried that my presence would affect her greatly. I did not expect her to be this happy,” James said as he glanced at the garden. His parents were watering the plants together.

Yennefer was currently nagging Jones about the plants. She had tended to the flowers with great care, and yet weeds and various diseases had spoiled them.

“James, trust Mrs. Lann. She's only a little confused right now. You are always very important to her in her heart.” Roxanne took the opportunity to assuage James' unease.

Lucian was well aware of his wife's temperament. The latter did not enjoy lecturing others. Thus, he followed up with some words of encouragement and added, “Honestly speaking, I think your presence calms Mrs. Lann down. I was thinking about the incident in Alendor where she had been frightened by the gunshot. Perhaps she had mistakenly thought that you were in danger.”

Stunned, James fell into deep contemplation. Eventually, a smile appeared on the corner of his lips. “I guess I'm not good at diagnosing myself. I tend to think of the worst scenarios. Thanks to Roxanne's and your guidance, I think I've finally understood the situation better.”

Roxanne and Lucian were pleased to see James smile. It was as if the latter had finally set down a rock in his heart.

Now, the psychological guidance would officially begin.

This time, James did not try to escape.
